Zhang Yuan soon signed a three-year endorsement contract with Adidas in mainland China.
He put the contract in the name of his agency.
I signed a temporary cooperation contract with the brokerage company in my personal capacity.
In this way, advertising endorsement fees have changed from personal income to business income. Not only are the tax rates significantly different, but the company can also receive tax refunds and credits at the end of the year.
This is a normal legal tax avoidance method, which can already save nearly half of the tax, but most celebrities and capital are still not satisfied with this.
Human nature is so greedy.
After receiving the 18 million, he still had over 10 million left. He immediately took the time to shoot a lot of print ads for the brand, which would soon be available online in major mainland brand stores.
Let’s talk about Hua Yi.
Since Zhang Yuan proposed the gambling agreement, the king and the king have not responded to him.
Of course they are not satisfied with this gambling agreement.
It’s not that I’m dissatisfied with the content.
Mainly it's different from what they expected.
Of course what they want is Zhang Yuan!
This flower girl ran away and took away a large number of top stars from the stall. If Zhang Yuan, a popular young man, can announce his joining Huayi in a high-profile manner.
This will not only clear away the gloom, but also stabilize the hearts of the people inside.
The reason why Wang Zhonglei contacted him was for this reason.
And, the other party did prepare a good brokerage agreement with very good conditions.
However, they did not expect that Zhang Yuan wanted more and had greater ambitions!
If it were before, Zhang Yuan proposed this gambling agreement.
Xiao Wang Baozhun chuckled.
"Haha..."
"Although I value you, what ability do you have to negotiate terms with me?"
But today is different from the past, Zhang Yuan knew that only in this window of time, Only he is qualified to negotiate with Hua Yi.
The king has also carefully studied Zhang Yuan's information in the past few days. After all, it was his brother who was keeping an eye on it before.
You don’t know this by looking at it, but you will be shocked when you see it.
Zhang Yuan's partners range from Sugar Man, Ciwen to Hairun, and now he even has a short-term cooperation with Warner Brothers.
There are so many places he can choose from!
Oh, I just went to shoot Xingmei’s artistic film.
Singmei, like Warner, has in-depth cooperation with China Film. This kid recently hooked up with China Film’s Lao Yang...
Then they got Zhang Yuan to be endorsed by Adidas. The news made the two kings feel even more uncomfortable.
This is a big endorsement. If Zhang Yuan were our artist, the company would be able to earn millions just by drawing achievements!
And the second king has a big thinking problem.
In their hearts, they are either my friends or my enemies.
So what they are afraid of now is that Zhang Yuan will join another company and become their enemy!
However, if it is not a brokerage agreement but a betting agreement, they are afraid that they will not be able to handle this kid.
They are used to being domineering, and they feel uneasy without a one-sided advantage.
……
“Yes, I understand.”
On the other side, while Zhang Yuan was patiently waiting for Hua Yi’s reply, he received a call from Fan Xiaopang .
"Zhang Yuan, I heard what you and Xiao Wang were talking about?"
A few years ago, Zhang Yuan raised the possibility of Sister Hua running away.
Now that Wang Jinhua is really gone, she is still under contract with Hua Yi and is in a dilemma.
You can’t leave even if you have a contract?
Then what lawsuit did she have with Qiong Yao back then? This is not the first time Fan Bingbing has done this.
This woman is very decisive in doing things, and she definitely has the courage of a strong man to cut off his wrist.
Therefore, she has been paying special attention to the internal dynamics of the company recently, and soon got the news of Zhang Yuan's secret conversation with Xiao Wang.
With her good relationship with Zhang Yuan, she wanted to get more information at this stage to facilitate her judgment.
"Yes, we are talking about it."
"A brokerage contract?"
"No, but it is more important than the brokerage contract." Zhang Yuan replied.
"What is that?"
"Well..." Zhang Yuan thought for a while.
Several days have passed, and there is no response from Hua Yi. He is actually quite anxious.
Because this step is too critical for him. Once it fails, all plans will have to be scrapped and restarted.
“It’s better to give the other party a little stimulation.”
Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes, planning to repeat his old trick and "reveal" the news.
“Only a few people know this.”
“But I understand that you are also in a critical period, and I trust you.”
“I can tell You, but you have to keep it a secret for me."
Fan Bingbing felt itchy when she heard what he said.
Not only did he have the curiosity to pry into secrets, but he also had a special feeling, as if the other person was whispering in his ear.
He believes in me so much...
Afterwards, Zhang Yuan told her everything about the gambling agreement.
Zhang Yuan knew that she would keep the secret from Hua Yi's people.
But whether he will keep the secret from Sister Hua is a question mark.
If Sister Hua and Cheng Tian know about this and come to negotiate with me, it will definitely be a fatal blow to the king!
“What do you want by doing this?” Fan Bingbing didn’t understand.
“Remember what I told you before, that I would give you a clear way to make a fortune?”
“Remember.”
“Well, it’s up to me. After the negotiation with Huayi is concluded or breaks down, you can talk to Xiao Wang about getting shares, provided that you stay in Huayi.”
"So, what you want is Huayi's shares?"
"Yes."
"But Huayi's shares are not valuable, only a few cents per share." Xiaopang still knows.
“Then have you ever thought about it, if Hua Yi goes public, the price of his shares will skyrocket.”
“How much will it rise if it goes public? Will it be five times, or will it be? Ten times!" Fan Bingbing said as loud as she could, this was already the limit of her imagination.
In fact, if calculated based on the current share price, the highest price on the first day of listing, Huayi's price per share has probably increased nearly three hundred times.
This is something that even the second king did not expect.
When Feng Xiaogang later sold out his shares in Huayi, he paid more than 40 million in personal income tax alone.
He and Big Beard became billionaires overnight.
“At least this should be increased, do you believe me?”
"Of course I believe it, you are so smart." Fan Xiaopang's eyes immediately lit up when he heard that there was money to be made.
If it can be doubled tenfold, if I spend hundreds of thousands now, it will become millions in the future.
It cannot be said that she is small, but even practitioners these days did not expect that China's economic development would be so fast!
“Hey, you have to be careful yourself.” Fan Bingbing was excited and came back to her senses: “I will help you pay attention to Huayi’s internal news and contact you if there is any movement. ”
Zhang Yuan responded.
I have to say that it makes sense for Fan Bingbing to become the first sister of China Entertainment.
What you do is really magnanimous.
She belongs to the type of woman who is very feminine when she is a woman, but is more masculine than a man when working.
As soon as this person put down the phone, Brother Qian came to the door.
“I told you before that I helped you find the house you want.”
"Now the landlord is relieved and plans to take action. Let's go and have a look together."
The Pip Hutong where Zhang Yuan lives is in Xicheng District. Brother Qian took him in the car and came all the way to the vicinity of Nanluogu Lane in Dongcheng District. .
They are also in the second ring road, both are good locations, but the areas are different.
And from a historical and geographical point of view, Pipiao Hutong is nearby the Bada Hutong, which belongs to the Fireworks Alley of the old society, so naturally it is not a good place.
But it fits Zhang Yuan’s positioning as a person in the entertainment industry. Nanluogu Lane is completely different. In ancient times, there were many mansions here, and the famous Prince Gong's Mansion is located on this street.
How good is the location of this place?
Opposite is Jingshan Park, and behind Jingshan Park is the Palace Museum.
Next to it are Shichahai and Houhai.
The straight-line distance to Tiananmen is about three kilometers.
Teacher Feng Gong, who had met Zhang Yuan several times, his family used to have an ancestral home in Nanluogu Lane. After all, his great-grandfather was Feng Guozhang.
However, his grandfather handed over the house to the government for free when he was studying abroad. This old house, which was later worth nearly one billion, has nothing to do with him anymore.
Of course, the house Brother Qian found for Zhang Yuan was not on Nanluoguxiang Street, but in the nearby Fuxiang Hutong.
Nanluoguxiang Street is shaped like a fishbone, and Fuxiang Hutong is on the "fishbone".
It's not that there are no houses on Nanluogu Lane, but the houses there don't meet Zhang Yuan's requirements.
Because it’s too big and too expensive!
The starting price is more than 1,000 square meters, and it can easily reach tens of millions. That was in 2005!
The courtyard house Murdoch bought last year has a better location, costing 10 million, and has a construction area of about 2,560 square meters.
But courtyard houses are different from public houses. The building area is 200 square meters, and the floor area may be 500 to 600 square meters.
So in those days when the unit price of a building in the imperial capital was three to four thousand, the cheapest courtyard house cost more than ten thousand.
Fuxiang Hutong is also in a good location. The courtyards above are of various sizes, which is more suitable for him.
"This place is not bad, you will know after a while." Brother Qian said as he pulled him away, and came to a gate that looked a bit dilapidated and decayed.
After knocking, he found that the door was unlocked, so Brother Qian led him into the house.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Zhang Yuan was stunned.
“Did the Eight-Power Allied Forces just cause trouble in this place?”
There are weeds everywhere, the roofs of the houses on both sides are leaking, and the floor tiles in the yard are broken everywhere.
He scanned around with his eyes, but he couldn't find a single piece.
"Tsk, it only meets your requirements if it is broken." Brother Qian patted him on the shoulder.
“This place has a construction area of just over 300 square meters, and the actual area is close to 1,200 square meters.”
“This large yard is only 600 square meters, and there is a backyard.”
"Such a big house has been deserted for twenty or thirty years just because it was so dilapidated that no one could live in it."
Brother Qian whispered in his ear: "The original owner ran away during WG. Some time ago I just came back this year.”
“Seeing that housing prices have risen, I plan to sell up and go abroad.”
“Runren again?” Zhang Yuan scratched his head.
"Don't worry about where he came from or why he sold it. Anyway, this house is only for this amount..."
Brother Qian made a "seven" gesture.
Zhang Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
This location and this price are indeed cheap!
If the house is well preserved, it will cost at least one thousand.
“The most valuable thing about this house is that it has this area in this location.”
"It's okay if the house is broken. You can repair it yourself, and it's easy to redecorate."
Zhang Yuan nodded, Brother Qian understands after all.
As long as you have money, spending millions to redo it is not a big deal.
Anyway, I had to renovate the house after I bought it.
“Not bad, not bad, we have picked it up.” Zhang Yuan looked around and said to himself that even if he spent 7 million to buy it and left it alone, the value would increase twenty or thirty times in ten years, and it would be stable. Make money without losing money.
The two of them were smoking cigarettes and planning how to decorate the house in the future.
I heard two voices coming from outside the door.
One is old, the other is young, both are men.
“Don’t worry, as long as you are willing to make a move, the price is easy to negotiate.”
“I know, I know, you are a star, naturally you are a happy person who is not short of money...”
With that said, the two of them crossed the threshold and walked into the courtyard.
"Brother Hu, you agreed to come see the house, but you are late." Brother Qian's expression changed, then he put on a smile and walked towards the landlord.
"Something happened temporarily...Oh, by the way, what a coincidence." The landlord, Lao Hu, rolled his eyes and began to introduce.
"Mr. Yu, you said that the brother you are helping to look at the house is a star."
"It just so happens that there is another celebrity here to look at the house. You are all in the same industry, so we can just communicate. .”
Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes and immediately recognized the big-eyed man with Chinese characters and sharp eyebrows next to the landlord.
He immediately walked up with a smile and held the other person's hands.
"Hello, Brother Yu!"
This uninvited guest is Yu Bo, known as the "Three Treasures of Zhouyi"!
Zhang Yuan had a smile on his face and MMP in his heart.
Gan!
Meet this old man.
That's right, he is a well-known "siheyuan" lover in the imperial circle. With such a benefit, he will definitely come here just because he smells it.
“Ah, hello, hello, I’ve heard of you.” Yu Bo greeted him with a confident smile.
It is said that he is the Three Treasures of Zhouyi, but in fact, in the company of Zhouyi, Yu Bo is the top brother.
The remaining two people, Yang Junyi and Zhang Jin, can only support him.
Also, both Yang Junyi and Zhang Jin are martial arts masters, but they can only play supporting roles.
"Brother Yu, you have to do things on a first-come, first-served basis." Zhang Yuan didn't have much contact with him at work, so he didn't need to be polite.
"Of course, I came to the entertainment industry earlier, and you came later."
Unexpectedly, the other party would not give in.
Brother Qian took the landlord aside and handed him a cigarette very dissatisfied.
"So, you are also very interested?"
After several "fights" back and forth, Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
"Buying or selling depends on what the landlord wants." Yu Bo obviously didn't want to let it go.
"That's okay." Zhang Yuan grinned, showing his red mouth and white teeth, and then said to the landlord.
"Mr. Hu, if you agree to the transaction, I can pay you the full amount." After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, he added: "Cash."
Yu Bo was stunned.
Seven million in cash?
Are all young people in the entertainment industry that rich now?
In the past two years, he had used his savings to buy two courtyard houses, one large and one small. Naturally, he did not have enough funds.
Zhang Yuan glanced at him after speaking.
Come on, let’s fight for our strength.
I just got advertising money from Adidas, and now I’m so powerful!
Hiss...Yu Bo took a breath, the other party was playing too real.
Young people are so fierce!
But he won't give up either.
"Mr. Hu, give me some time, I can also come up with cash."
"And the price is easy to negotiate." He replied gently.
The landlord brought him here just to let the two rich celebrities raise prices for each other, so naturally he was happy to hear what he said.
"Brother Yu, it is not advisable to drive up prices." Zhang Yuan reminded.
"Fair competition." Yu Boxin said, you unruly junior.
“You mean, everyone depends on their ability?”
“Of course.”
Zhang Yuan pursed his lips and nodded.
It seems that this person is toasting and taking cephalosporins instead of eating.
Brother Qian saw Zhang Yuan's state from the side and began to mourn the aftermath in his heart.
"Although we both have the surname Yu and belong to the same family, I can't save you."
"Okay, Mr. Hu, I am quite interested in this house. If you are willing If you accept my conditions, contact me.”
Zhang Yuan stopped pestering. After all, the harder they fight, the happier the landlord will be.
Back home with Brother Qian, Zhang Yuan hid in the house and made a phone call.
He plans to completely cut off the aftermath...(End of Chapter)
