Chapter 191: Love What You Do
the next day.
Fan Wumian got up very early.
Wearing a suit from Benny Lu, he took Zhuang Muxi with him to get his hair done, and then attended an event held by Chow Tai Fook Jewelry Company.
The venue for the high-end jewelry exhibition is located in the shopping mall library of the Hong Kong International Financial Center Building.
When you enter the mall, you can also see promotional posters.
It says that the Four Seasons Hotel located in this skyscraper will open in September, and the God of Songs Zhang Xueyou seemed to have just held a fan meeting event.
Assistant Pu Jiajing looked at the two of them and said jokingly:
"Boss, you are wearing Benny Lu and Miss Zhuang is wearing Givenchy couture gown. Isn't it a bit mismatched?"
Yesterday, I heard Fan Wumian say that he was a playboy.
The first person Pu Jiajing thought of was Zhuang Muxi. After paying close attention today, she indeed discovered many small movements that she had not noticed before.
For example, just now in the car.
When Fan Wumian whispered in her ear, Zhuang Muxi did not dodge at all.
When Zhuang Muxi took his arm and let the reporters take pictures, her movements seemed particularly natural. The two of them were almost shoulder to shoulder, looking very intimate.
Think of Zuo Ziyan
Pu Jiajing finally began to realize what the so-called "hush money" actually meant.
Fan Wumian replied in a lazy tone:
"Do what you love and always keep the sponsors of the brands you endorse in mind. This is the most professional way. Some big stars spend two or three months filming and work themselves to death only to earn a few million Hong Kong dollars in pay. Taking endorsements is like picking up money. You have to take it seriously to make a long-term profit."
Zhuang Muxi deeply agrees with this.
Whether it was the last coconut tree brand advertisement or the 400 million endorsement fee this time, she felt like she had picked up a large sum of money inexplicably.
Because the money was too easy to earn, she even felt doubtful and thought she was not worth such a high price.
Even if part of it was taken away by the Bandit King agency and part by the tax administration department, she still had more than 300 million left in endorsement fees.
Fan Wumian is more famous and earns more.
For example, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master gold watch on his wrist was also sponsored by a Hong Kong agent. He went to Los Angeles to be a "magician" and earned two Patek Philippe watches, but he never wore them in public.
Considering that he could not give the brand an opportunity to take advantage of his fame, Fan Wumian even wanted to sell the two Patek Philippe watches, which would net him more than one million Hong Kong dollars.
When I first debuted and became famous, I couldn’t get good resources and the price was hard to negotiate.
When his previous endorsements expire, if brands like Benlu and Red Star Erke think his offers are too high, he may have a chance to take on endorsements from some luxury brands.
Unlike many celebrities.
In fact, Fan Wumian does not want to help these foreign companies make a fortune in the domestic market. If he encounters a suitable opportunity, he would like to give priority to supporting some domestic products.
Unfortunately, even if he doesn’t endorse foreign luxury brands, others will scramble for these opportunities and might even turn around and laugh at him for having “poor resources.”
For the sake of the jobs of the contracted artists, it is obviously necessary to win over more financial sponsors from brands.
In the current Chinese entertainment industry, many artists do not make much money from filming or singing, so they rely on advertising endorsements and performing to make money to support their families, which accounts for a large part of their income.
There are countless examples of people who have failed because of endorsing health products and medical products for the sake of making money.
Zhuang Muxi wore a pink dress today, making her look like an immortal. She also had a ruby necklace on her neck, which was said to be worth more than one million Hong Kong dollars in the market.
This is not the first time he has worked with Chow Tai Fook. The last time he accompanied Fan Wumian to the Academy Awards ceremony, the jewelry she wore was also from this jewelry company.
After looking around the mall, Zhuang Muxi lowered his voice and said:
"This is my first time here. The customers who come to Central to shop here are probably very wealthy. There are many brands I have never seen before."
Fan Wumian nodded.
Cars, houses, clothes, watches, even beef sticks and snacks, as well as shampoo for bathing, are all sponsored by brands, which invisibly reduces his fun of shopping.
He said with emotion:
"Buying houses and speculating in real estate may not be the most profitable investment method, but it is very worry-free and can be left alone. Recently, I have been thinking about how to launch Tudou.com, and it is worrying me to death."
"The International Financial Center Building has 88 floors in total. The rent is higher than that in the UK and the US. We can collect billions of dollars in rent every year without doing anything. What a comfortable business."
"Although Zhou Dafu Jewelry Company is very profitable, the Zheng family became one of the four largest families mainly because of the real estate industry. I only own a few luxury homes, but they have properties all over the place."
Zhuang Muxi smiled and said:
"As long as you have enough money, it's fine. Comparing yourself with others all the time will only bring you trouble. However, when a normal person comes to a super skyscraper like this, he will inevitably think, 'I wish it was mine.' I remember reading in a magazine that this mentality is called giant worship."
"."
If the timing had not been inappropriate, Fan Wumian would have teased her a little.
Came to the bookstore where the jewelry exhibition was held.
Some guests, dressed fashionably and luxuriously, had already arrived early.
Once again accepting interviews from reporters.
When asked why he became the spokesperson for Chow Tai Fook Jewellery, Fan Wumian felt puzzled. Of course, he became the spokesperson because he could make money. Could it be that he did it to generate power out of love?
She said some nice words, took turns showing men's diamond rings, gold pendants inlaid with gemstones, etc., and also cooperated in the promotion and personally put a pink diamond necklace on Zhuang Muxi. The movements were a bit stiff.
Because Zuo Ziyan and her mother were also invited to the scene today and were looking at him with a smile.
9: in the morning.
There were many security guards responsible for maintaining order and allowing reporters and guests to enter the bookstore.
You can see many high-end jewels, sparkling in the glass display cabinets, looking particularly luxurious and exquisite.
As an alumnus.
Zuo Ziyan pulled Zhuang Muxi aside to chat for a while, saying that they might become colleagues in the future and film a movie together, which seemed to be a case of "the boss lady trying to win over her cash cow employee."
When it comes to her own happiness, Zhuang Muxi still looks extraordinary and otherworldly. Knowing in advance that Miss Zuo would also come today, she had already prepared herself mentally and was not panicked.
He simply distanced himself from Fan Wumian with the identity of "former neighbor and current colleague".
This is Fan Wumian's side.
Zuo Ziyan's mother was also chatting with him and told him:
"I used to have a white jade bracelet that was passed down to me by my grandmother. I accidentally broke it last month, so I asked a designer to change it into a pendant and earrings. You young people have good taste, so give me some advice later."
"Also, my husband and I went to see the house you bought, No. 2 Repulse Bay. You're really impressive at such a young age. You bought it right away, even though the taxes were close to NT$ million. Ah Yan's father regretted several times at home that he didn't act in time and wanted to bargain for the price."
"There are many mansions on the market, but there is no other European-style mansion as beautiful as this one. I am considering buying a piece of land and building one myself."
Have been in contact several times.
It can be clearly seen that Zuo Ziyan's mother's attitude has undergone a 180-degree change, and she has truly begun to regard Fan Wumian as a "suitable son-in-law".
Fan Wumian had a smile on his face and said politely:
"If I knew that you, Auntie, also wanted to buy it, I definitely wouldn't have snatched it from you."
"Repulse Bay has both mountain and sea views, and it's relatively quiet to live there. But I bought a three-bedroom apartment at the Arc de Triomphe for my dad yesterday. I think it's more comfortable to have a view of Victoria Harbour. No wonder so many people go to the top of the mountain."
"Building a house by yourself is the most satisfying thing, both in terms of design and decoration. I recently renovated my back garden and encountered a lot of troubles."
Zuo Ziyan's mother was still very satisfied with him.
I feel that because I experienced hard times since childhood, I am not as frivolous, impetuous, and domineering as other rich kids.
Especially when he helped his father buy a house, she mistakenly believed that Fan Wumian was very filial, and she even praised him a few times, saying that the location of the Arc de Triomphe was quite good and that it should appreciate in value in the future.
Just about to continue speaking.
The heir of the Zheng family, who was responsible for planning this event, came over and greeted everyone warmly.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Fan Wumian found that he glanced at Zuo Ziyan and Zhuang Muxi several times, and finally chose to focus his attention on Zhuang Muxi, trying to get close to her in a familiar way.
I secretly criticized the scumbag and found out that he had ulterior motives and didn't involve myself at all.
Fan Wumian could only pretend not to care and let Zhuang Muxi deal with it on her own. He had informed her agent Xu Wenlian in advance, so he didn't have to worry about being at a disadvantage.
While dealing with strangers who greeted me, I admired various styles of jewelry.
Seriously infiltrated by European and American culture, even a small diamond, sapphire, emerald and the like can be marked with a sky-high price. There is even an emerald necklace that is priced at tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.
Fan Wumian had no interest in these colored gems, but there were many rich girls who took the initiative to chat with him in various ways, such as asking for numbers, handing over business cards, and winking, which were enough to show their attitudes.
There is even a 25-year-old round-faced, slightly plump rich girl with a fortune of tens of billions, who also seems to want to eat young grass.
Thinking that the flower language of steel wool is "forbearance" and "wealth", Fan Wumian didn't care much about the other party.
Whether he can become a wealthy man with a net worth of 20 billion Hong Kong dollars in years is still a question mark for the time being, but with the number of Penguin shares he holds, he can achieve it by just lying down at home, so there is no need to put himself in a difficult position.
Take a walk and have a look.
When he came to the jade exhibition area, Fan Wumian finally understood it this time.
I used to watch short videos and saw countless bloggers cutting stones, bidding at public auctions, and digging jade in mines. I also saw female stars wearing green bracelets that cost a fortune. I only knew that this thing was very expensive.
In the glass cabinet there is a pair of imperial green earrings, priced at HK$999, as well as a borrowed "double color" imperial green necklace, consisting of 999 full green jade beads and a diamond chain clasp.
After asking the staff, I learned that it was sold for 1997 million Hong Kong dollars in 7262, and its market value has now exceeded million Hong Kong dollars.
Really rare and good things are never cheap.
Watching short videos itself doesn’t make money, but it can help you gain knowledge and broaden your horizons, allowing Fan Wumian to remember many opportunities to make money.
now.
He remembered where he had seen a piece of stone called "Big Jade King" that was jointly bought by three experts in gambling on jadeite. The price at the public auction was 800 million euros, and the total value after it was cut would be more than 20 billion yuan.
Fan Wumian was in a daze.
I can't remember the exact time it happened, nor am I sure if it was a made-up story.
He secretly made a note of this incident, thinking that he would pay attention to it occasionally, in case there really was such a magical stone, wouldn't it be a great fortune?
