Chapter 459: I’m Not Filming Anymore!
Translator: Zayn_
On the other side, at the G&A branch in China.
The blond man did not even raise his head. The computer interface was still showing the general information of several A-list female celebrities.
The secretary hung up the phone and looked at the newly appointed person-in-charge.
“Manager, they didn’t agree immediately. They even asked to see our specific advertising proposal.”
“What?” The man raised his head in surprise. His eyes were filled with contempt. “Is this her own request or the manager’s?”
“Her manager seems to want to agree to our request immediately.” the secretary replied.
“Go tell them that our advertising designer has come up with the best proposal. Tell them to come over tomorrow for filming. If they don’t come tomorrow, they’ll be disqualified from the endorsement.”
The man’s tone was rather condescending.
It was as if it was Song Qingyou’s honor to be the spokesperson of the company.
The secretary was well aware of the temper of the new person-in-charge, but she had been in China for a long time and knew that she could not pass his message on, word for word.
When Song Qingyou heard the reply again, the meaning had already become:
“Please trust our designers. They will come up with the best advertising and marketing plan.”
“Please come to the company tomorrow for the commercial shoot. This is the first time that G&A is trying to find a spokesperson in China. I hope Miss Song won’t miss this opportunity.”
In short, the secretary’s attitude was much more polite.
Besides, they didn’t ask for a contract before the audition, and tomorrow was Song Qingyou’s day off.
Therefore, she immediately asked Chen Lan to agree.
As soon as Song Qingyou agreed, the secretary of the G&A branch took action.
In just a day, there was news online that Song Qingyou was about to get the endorsement deal.
If it was just a single product endorsement, such as a lipstick or handbag, such discussions wouldn’t cause much of a stir.
The problem was that the endorsements Song Qingyou could get didn’t just cover all the countries in the eastern region, but also all the endorsements of all the products under G&A.
This concept was very different.
Moreover, many netizens speculated that the first time G&A looked for a celebrity to endorse in China, they skipped Zhong Jiayin, Ye Guiwan, Shen Xiyan, and other female celebrities and went straight to Song Qingyou. Did this mean that Song Qingyou was more famous overseas than Zhong Jiayin and the others?
There were discussions about the top 20 female celebrities on the Celebrity Impact List, and the entry ttSong Qingyou’s endorsement #was sent to the hot search.
During this period, Zhong Jiayin and Ye Guiwan called one after another to ask if it was true. Gu Xingchen even congratulated them.
Everyone felt that after Song Qingyou successfully got the endorsement, her influence would increase even further, whether domestically or internationally.
Chen Lan thought so too.
However, before the commercial shoot, Song Qingyou received the script from the internationally renowned advertising director, Clint, while she was still doing her makeup.
The advertising script was only one page, and Song Qingyou almost finished reading it before standing up.
“I’m not filming anymore!” she sneered under the makeup artist’s surprised gaze.
“Song? What do you mean?”
Song Qingyou crumpled the script into a ball. “I mean, 1 refuse to shoot such a script!”
Clint was stunned for a moment, then he seemed to understand something. His eyes that were filled with anger narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of threat.
“Song, no matter how hot-tempered you are, you should think about your future. The advertisement you shot for GO is the best opportunity for you to become famous in other countries.”
“Chance?” Song Qingyou’s eyes were cold. “Heh, what 1 don’t lack the most is opportunities.”
“Then, have you ever thought that once you reject the commercial shoot of G&A, the other luxury brands will never choose to work with you again?” said Clint with a gloomy expression. “You know that the G&A has the ability to do so!”
Song Qingyou replied with an expressionless “Oh”, the corners of her mouth curled up in a mocking smile. In the end, she didn’t even look at Clint, waved her hand and left.
“F*ck!”
Clint was furious and immediately called his secretary to ask how they could find an “unqualified” spokesperson.
At the same time, after Song Qingyou entered the dressing room, Chen Lan, who was stopped outside, thought that she would have to wait for a few hours before Song Qingyou finished her work.
In the end, he had only sat down for ten minutes when the person inside came out.
Her eye makeup was only half done.
If it weren’t for Song Qingyou’s good looks, she would probably look out of place.
“Why did you come out so quickly? 1 remember there’s a washroom inside…”
“I’m not shooting this commercial. Let’s go back.”
Song Qingyou didn’t explain further. Chen Lan looked at her expression and felt that a storm was coming, so she didn’t ask further.
It wasn’t until she sent her home that she realized that Song Qingyou felt that the advertising and marketing plan was insulting to the Chinese.
There was a dress full of graffiti-like designs in the advertisement. The English translation of China was written on the chest of the dress, and there was a red cross on the translation.
In the advertising slogan, there was also a description similar to ‘squinty-eyed’ and a word like ‘chink’.
One of the requirements was for Song Qingyou to pull her eyelids back with her middle finger.
This action was not a big deal in itself, but in foreign countries, this was provocation and contempt. It was an insulting action.
Song Qingyou wasn’t sure if there were any other details.
However, this alone was enough to prove that the company was definitely not a partner to work with.
For Song Qingyou, this was also a matter of principles.
After Chen Lan understood what had happened, she was still unwilling to give up even though she understood.
“Actually…This kind of thing happens often in the industry. Those international big names like to mess with people’s minds. Many artistes have encountered this before.”
“They usually don’t care about this. If the outside world doesn’t find out, they’ll publicize it. If they find out, they’ll keep quiet. Anyway, as long as they keep a low profile, the artistes won’t be affected in any way after the time passes.” “So Sister Lan is persuading me to go back and continue filming?”
Chen Lan saw that her expression was not good and quickly shook her head.
“I’m just saying what the circle thinks of this kind of thing… Besides, G&A is a big brand. Yesterday, there was news that you were going to be the spokesperson. If you don’t succeed in the end…”
“Others won’t think that you rejected G&A. They will only think that G&A doesn’t like you.”
“It doesn’t matter. From the moment 1 decided to leave, I already expected the consequences.” Song Qingyou said.
“Did Sister Lan think that I would be so impulsive that I wouldn’t care about the consequences?”
Chen Lan shook her head. “I just don’t know how the people from G&A are going to react. If they’re a little more ambitious, they might just release a statement saying that you weren’t the spokesperson from the start. The rumors circulating on the Internet are all rumors…”
“If they can’t take it-”
She didn’t know how Song Qingyou would react.
The advertisement had not been made yet, and outsiders did not know the reason.
Even if Song Qingyou said that their brand insulted the Chinese, she had no evidence..
