Song Wen went back to consider the deal. He still asked his friends about Wind and Rain VCD and Aiwa VCD. He found out that the boss behind these two brands was a young man. He also found out that this young man was extremely wealthy and have lots of connections.
If the Little Tigers were to enter the Chinese market, they would need someone like this to take care of them. This way, the Little Tigers will not be threatened in China like the previous time.
Although the endorsement fees were lower, if the popularity in China could increase, then they can charge higher endorsement fees for other products. If the Little Tigers could get more endorsement deals in China because of their increased fame, they will make much more.
Song Wen reported back to his company, and the company agreed. Even Jackie Chan’s endorsement fees in China were not high, what else can they expect for the Little Tigers? Also, Aaron Kwok was more popular than the Little Tigers in Hong Kong and China. If Aaron Kwok signed the deal, then the Little Tigers will miss this opportunity.
The next day, Song Wen signed the contract with Zhong Qingxian. 6 million RMB for a 4 years endorsement contract. The amount will be paid annually. Each year, the Little Tigers had to film a TV commercial and attend a promotional event. There were also print ads. The pictures of the Little Tigers will also be printed on Lehaha’s milk tea paper cups.
Hmmm, the promotional event could be held at Tai Hua Supermarkets. The returns will be doubled. This was a great deal!
The female actress was also a young female artiste from The Little Tigers’ agency. Her fees were much cheaper. It was only 50,000 RMB per year, and the contract duration was 4 years.
Feng Yu could not remember what happened to this female artiste in the future. That means she did not make it big in the future. So, there was no need to sign a long term contract with her.
After the issue of spokesperson was settled, they started to look for people to film the commercial. The paper cups were also redesigned.
Feng Yu looked at the new paper cups. There was a picture of the Little Tigers with a cup of milk tea each, offering to the girl. The girl had a shy look on her face.
Yes. This picture looks good. Every girl will wish they were the girl in the picture. Even if only young female consumers like to drink this tea, the sales will not be low. Furthermore, this female artiste was young and pretty. She will be able to attract many young male consumers.
The filming for the commercial started, and Feng Yu gave some suggestions. There was a storyline in this commercial. 3 boys were wooing a young girl. But they should not be foolish looking. One of them should act attentive, one should try to be cool, and one should look shy. The 3 of them should not be running after the girl with a cup of milk tea each.
There should also be several versions of the commercial and they will pick the best footages to edit.
During filming, Feng Yu brought Li Na to the set. Li Na had always wanted to meet the Little Tigers. Today was the day where her wish come true.
When Li Na heard that she will be meeting the Little Tigers, she immediately skips school. Li Na also called Zhang Han to tell her about it. In the end, Zhang Han and Wen Dongjun also tag along.
“You invited the Little Tigers over? What commercial are you filming? Is it for the cars?”
“Milk tea.”
“Milk tea? What is that? Does it taste good?” Wen Dongjun immediately asked.
“It should taste not bad. But it is still not produced yet. The cups they are holding are all empty cups.”
Wen Dongjun had a disappointed look on his face when Feng Yu said that. It was a torture for him to not taste the milk tea after hearing it.
……
“Cut! Ok. It’s a wrap!” The director shouted.
The workers start to pack the lights and props. Wen Dongjun was the first to run over. “Handsome Tiger, I really like you!”
Zhang Han grabbed Wen Dongjun and pulled him behind. He was an embarrassment to them. Wen Dongjun was facing Thunder Tiger when he said that!
Luckily, the 3 members of Little Tigers were about the same age as Wen Dongjun and the rest, and they were artists. They will not get angry with their fans. They just treat it as a joke.
“Mr. Feng, your script for this commercial is very interesting. I am thinking of going into acting in the future.” Well-behaved tiger said.
“You will be able to act in a top-rated drama, like Qiong Yao dramas, in the future.” Feng Yu said with an ‘I know you will make it big’ look on his face.
Without Well-behaved tiger acting in , the drama would not be as exciting. Although Well-behaved tiger was still young, his role in the drama was likable by many viewers.
“Thank you for your kind words.”
“Feng Yu, can you let us take a picture with them?” Wen Dongjun shouted.
“Photographer, can you help us take a picture?” Feng Yu waved to a photographer at the set.
Feng Yu was the boss, and the photographer did not dare to reject him. He immediately ran over. But he held the camera for a while without pressing the shutter.
“Sir, you are too tall. The picture will look weird. Can you do a half squat?”
Wen Dongjun pointed to himself. Me? Half squat? Damn! All I wanted was a picture with the Little Tigers, and I still need to squat down? Is it my fault for being tall?
Feng Yu tried to hold back his laughter. Who ask you to eat so much and grow so tall? Serve you, right!
Li Na and the rest were not those crazy die-hard fans Feng Yu saw in his previous life. Although they were happy to meet their idols, there was not screaming or grabbing.
Feng Yu looked at the 3 members of the Little Tigers during the photo taking. They were well behaved, and their eyes were clear. Feng Yu was satisfied with them. If anyone of them had designs on Li Na, he would not hold back!
Feng Yu invited everyone to have dinner together, and the Little Tigers agreed. Li Na and the rest were overjoyed. They could chat with their idols longer.
During dinner, Li Na asked softly: “Can we hear you sing now?”
The Little Tigers looked at each other and then look at their manager, Song Wen. Song Wen nodded. This question was considered very rude because it will lower their status. But they could tell Li Na did not have any ill intentions and Feng Yu was around.
The Little Tigers sang . They did not dance and just sang. Feng Yu got to admit that these 3 Tigers had good vocals.
Feng Yu suddenly remembered a song. This song was most suitable to be the song for the commercial and suits the Little Tigers’ vocals.
“I suddenly remember a song I composed a few days ago. It is a song that suits you all. I will give this song to you all.”
When Feng Yu said this, the 3 members of the Little Tigers could feel Feng Yu was trying to take care of them. But the song? Their songs were given to them from their company and were carefully selected from thousands of songs. Song Wen gave a look to the Little Tigers. No matter what Manager Feng’s song was, they must praise it. They must not let Manager Feng feel embarrassed.
If this song was nothing special, then they can send it to some famous composer to edit it slightly and record it in their next album. But if the song really sucks, then Song Wen will have to fend it off. The Little Tigers could not refuse, and their manager had to step in and be the bad guy.
“You compose another song?” Li Na’s eyes were shining like little stars.
Another? The Little Tigers looked at each other. It can’t be. This Manager Feng had composed songs before? The song he wrote was good? They could tell it from Li Na’s eyes. Even when Li Na first met them, she did not have this worship look in her eyes.
“Yes. I have written it for you. But I do not have a guitar with me. So, I will just sing it straight.” Feng Yu looked at Li Na with loving eyes.
