Mr. Yang was drenched in cold sweat, repeatedly saying, "Yes, yes."
For a mont, he forgot that the girl in front of him was rely his subordinate. The way she spoke was so natural, exuding an inherent sense of authority and nobility that seed to unconsciously reveal itself. It was as if his superior was earnestly guiding him. Perhaps that’s why Mr. Lu chose her? Unaware, Mr. Yang couldn’t help but think she really had the deanor of a matriarch of a major corporation.
Su Xingyu didn’t make things difficult for Mr. Yang. Although he made mistakes in this incident, who doesn’t make mistakes?
Since she joined the company, she had spent several months interacting with Mr. Yang. She understood this superior; although he lacked significant boldness, he wasn’t a bad person.
She gave Mr. Yang a few pointers, and over there, Cang Er also walked into the backstage.
Cang Er, with her silver short hair, always had a strong presence wherever she went, as if she naturally emitted a glow.
She smiled at Su Xingyu, "Your lecture was really good today. Just like that, crush your opponents thoroughly."
Mr. Yang, who had just apologized, felt embarrassed. This tone made it sound like Cang Er was teaming up with Su Xingyu, while Blade Group seed like an outsider.
Su Xingyu held a paper cup of mineral water and slightly tilted her head to talk to Cang Er, "Thank you for helping us. Well then, we’ll have to trouble you with the following matters?"
"Of course, I wouldn’t miss the chance to extort Blade," Cang Er squinted, looking like a clever fox.
Mr. Yang, feeling jittery under her gaze, couldn’t help but ask, "Wha-what extortion?"
"Cang Er’s just kidding, Mr. Yang, don’t worry," Su Xingyu interjected at the right ti to defuse the situation, "Blade’s new cara is in the market promotion phase. Having an additional marketing plan provides added support. So Xia Ling, Ouyang Yi, and I discussed hosting a promotion using their nas, releasing a special ’Brilliant Stars’ edition, which includes a set of photos I took. People can scratch the QR code on the back, and winners can receive a personal autograph from Xia Ling or Ouyang Yi."
It was indeed a great event, and Mr. Yang’s eyes sparkled, "Xia Ling really agreed?"
Ouyang Yi’s side was easier. Although the supermodel was famous in the fashion world, his popularity among the general public was not as high as the entertainnt industry super diva. So, getting his autographed photos was relatively easier. But Xia Ling was hard to approach. That girl was unbelievably proud, backed by the powerful boss Pei Ziheng. She rarely participated in regular activities typical of celebrities—like endorsents, signatures, photos—getting her assistance was indeed incredibly fortunate.
Su Xingyu nodded, "I’ve already talked to Xiaoling."
Actually, that girl was easy to coax, as long as she promised to take more everyday life photos for her.
The superstar diva, with an outwardly glamorous life, actually had many personal troubles privately, such as her relationship with Pei Ziheng, which couldn’t be exposed. No matter how beautiful her publicity photos were, it was hard to find a reliable photographer to take intimate and lovely photos of her and Pei Ziheng. But in front of Su Xingyu, Xia Ling had no such concerns; she could shoot as she pleased.
Listening to her, Mr. Yang got excited, "Great, great, that’s fantastic! Xia Ling, as a super diva naturally brings her own traffic, will definitely significantly boost the cara’s popularity!"
"Just, there’s one problem," Su Xingyu said, giving Mr. Yang a knowing smile, "I’ve already sold this set of photos to ’Cloud’, used by Cang Er in their annual special. If Blade wants to use it, they must purchase the photo rights from Cloud Group, and the copyright fee isn’t cheap."
Mr. Yang almost fainted upon hearing this, finally understanding the aning behind Cang Er’s greedy gaze.
"Well..." He rubbed his hands, turned to Cang Er, and said, "Cang Er, look, this set of photos has such deep ties with Blade, in terms of price..."
Understanding what he ant, Cang Er chuckled lightly, "Mr. Yang, it’s not up to you. Had you treated Xingyu properly, the photos wouldn’t have landed in my hands, and you’d use them without spending a di. But since things have escalated to this point, I must approach it professionally. How about this price?"
Cang Er held out her fingers.
Mr. Yang almost fainted upon seeing it, "Cang Er, why don’t you just rob ?"
"Fixed price," Cang Er was decisive, offering no room for negotiation, "take it or leave it. Cloud doesn’t need this money."
Mr. Yang: "..."
He was pained, truly pained.
Cang Er’s quoted price was cleverly calculated, allowing him to afford it with Blade slightly profiting from the project, but causing significant distress. He suspected that this price was given to Cang Er by Su Xingyu, but Su Xingyu was Mr. Lu’s girlfriend, and he couldn’t risk offending her, especially since he was at fault for letting such a masterpiece slip away.
"Well, do you want to buy it?" Cang Er was very relaxed.
"Buy!" Mr. Yang gritted his teeth and agreed.
Even if the price barely allowed a profit for Blade, he still had to buy it. He had already wronged Su Xingyu enough, and now he had a chance to make ands, definitely he would ensure Su Xingyu’s photos gained the most impact. Otherwise, Mr. Lu... he really couldn’t afford to face the consequences.
Looking at Mr. Yang’s agonized expression, Cang Er laughed softly, "At least you’re sensible. But, Mr. Yang, you don’t actually have to feel too distressed. I almost forgot to ntion that as a favor to Xingyu, Cloud Group has given you a great benefit—the photo is already printed in Cloud’s annual special edition, alongside an appraisal of Blade’s new cara. You know how expensive Cloud’s ad spaces are, you didn’t suffer at all this ti."
Mr. Yang’s previously worried face suddenly brightened, "Really?! Oh, Cang Er, thank you so much, and Xingyu, your contribution is invaluable!"
Cloud’s ad spaces were indeed famous for being costly, with high entry requirents that aren’t easily achievable for many brands.
Although Blade caras were a big brand eting Cloud’s ad criteria, getting a spot wasn’t easy, requiring lengthy queueing, negotiations, and back-and-forth disputes...
Now, Su Xingyu’s photos settled the deal with Cloud effortlessly, how could he not be pleasantly surprised?
"Xingyu, you really outdid yourself!" Mr. Yang bead.
Su Xingyu was also in high spirits. Didn’t Lu Shifeng tell her to use any ans necessary? Then she would do exactly that!
She intended to integrate her promotional photos into the cara products and sell them in various versions, comparing the sales of her versions and Zhuang Heng’s regular version photos!
