Seeing that everyone was bidding, Su Chang immediately turned around to take a look.
She suddenly realized that the people bidding were all representing foreign food brands!
Any one of them was a powerhouse!
âWhy⦠why are these foreign brands here to join in the fun? This is impossible. Sheâs not that capable!â
This was something that Su Chang and Zhang Xu could not understand.
Even if these giants in the international food industry wanted to enter the domestic market, they should seek out some mature programs to invest in. There was no need to take the risk to invest in this unknown program.
Half an hour later, the three spots for the designated products were obtained by two foreign food companies and a domestic food and oil company at an average price of 46 million yuan.
Yan Ci did a rough calculation. Just these two designated title sponsors alone had earned her nearly 200 million yuan!
Happiness came too suddenly, making her feel a little dizzy. She felt that it was unreal, like a drcam.
She felt like she had just cheated for the past 2 auctions
The recommended app sponsorship was obtained by Penguin Video for 52 million!
The exclusive title sponsorship and designated vehicle sponsorship were acquired by Yanjing Mercedes-Benz for 219 million, setting a new record for variety show sponsorships
As for the three slots for chief partner and official partner, they were sold for a total of 190 million, making them a huge profit.
The total amount of investment was as high as 650 million!
This instantly set the record for this yearâs variety shows!
Neither Yan Ci nor the people of Century Media had expected such an outcome!
It was even more shocking than Mars crashing into Earth!
Although Yan Ci was excited, she still looked calm on the surface.
After all, she was the producer and director of this show. She could not let others think that she was inexperienced.
âAt this point, all the sponsorship spots have been auctioned off. We thank you all for coming. We have also prepared a sumptuous buffet lunch to express our gratitude.â
When the investment meeting ended, the participants left one after another.
Su Chang and Zhang Xu only came back to their senses after a long time.
A variety program with no viewership ratings had actually obtained sponsorships amounting to 650 million!
This was absolutely unheard of for them.
âDirector Su, letâs leave first. It wonât be good if Yan Ci recognizes us,â Zhang Xu whispered.
âLook at how smug she is!â Su Chang said with a cold face. âLetâs go!â
At the same time, Yan Ci walked up to Lin Yi.
âYouâre right. It was really effective.â Yan Ci danced with joy. âIt went much better than I expected.â
âPerhaps itâs because youâve prepared well, coupled with the new style of the show, that these sponsors recognized the hidden value inside.â
In reality, such results went far beyond Lin Yiâs expectations.
In his impression, it would already be a blessing to be able to collect 200 million yuan.
Now, they had obtained more than 600 million yuan right from the get-go.
âI donât think thatâs possible.â Yan Ci looked at Lin Yi with a scrutinizing gaze. âI also think that you helped out from behind.â
âHow is that possible? If someone as direct as me really wanted to help, I would have just spent money. Would I have done such a thing?â
Yan Ci pursed her lips, thinking that what Lin Yi said made sense. He was indeed not the type to beat around the bush.
âHello, President Lin.â
Just as the two of them were talking, someone came over to greet them.
Lin Yi had some impression of the person who spoke. He seemed to be Meituanâs representative.
âIâm the general manager of Meituan. My name is Li Haoyang.â
âHello.â Lin Yi extended his hand as well.
âThank you, President Lin, for giving us a chance to bid this time. I hope we will have a chance to work together in the future. I wish you all the best in this show.â
âAlright, thank you for your blessings.â
After saying goodbye to Lin Yi, Li Haoyang politely left.
Immediately after, many more people came over to greet them. Almost all of them were the manufacturers who had won the bid just now.
Moreover, they were all from big factories, such as Penguin, Ali, ByteDance, Yanjing Mercedes-Benz, and so on. They all came over to greet Lin Yi.
Their words were similar to Li Haoyangâs, thanking Lin Yi for giving them a chance to get a sponsorship slot.
Seeing these people talking to Lin Yi respectfully, Yan Ci immediately understood what was going on.
The popularity of the investment meeting had nothing to do with her.
It was all because of Lin Yiâs influence.
Although he did not come to help, these business big shots came to support him after hearing the news.
This was because supporting his show was equivalent to showing their respect for Lin Yi.
They were all well-versed in the ways of the world.
However, Lin Yi doesnât see it that way because there was also a crucial detail being conveyed.
This signified the downfall of the Wang family and the rise of the Liang family!
Although the Lingyun Group was gaining momentum, there was still a gap between it and a big factory like Penguin and Alibaba.
However, now, because of such a small matter, they had all run over to try to sponsor him. They clearly sensed the changes and movements from above, and became aware of Lin Yiâs relationship with the Liang family.
Due to this, Lin Yi didnât even need to open his mouth to get these big shots to open their wallets.
âLook, what did I say?â Yan Ci said, âI knew it. It couldnât be because of me. Things only worked out because of you.â
â1 didnât expect this either. These peopleâs sense of smell is too sharp.â
âNo matter what, itâs all because of you that things turned out like this today,â Yan Ci said.
âOrder whatever you want to eat. Todayâs meal is on me. Donât stand on ceremony with me.â
âThereâs no need to go out to eat. Letâs eat at the hotel.â
âThatâs fine too. Iâll listen to you.â
âBut the hotel environment is too noisy. Thereâs no atmosphere at all.â
Yan Ci blinked and sized Lin Yi up.
âWhy donât you get a presidential suite and order something to eat?â
âThatâs a good idea. Not only is it private, but it can also solve the dinner issue.
Wow, it seems like youâre very sincere. Not bad, not bad.â
âTsk, morals.â Yan Ci said with a beautiful face.
âWait for a while. The investment meeting has just ended. I still have some finishing work to do, so Iâll look for you after Iâm done.â
âAlright, go do your thing.â
After finishing their business, the two of them separated.
Lin Yi went to the presidential suite that he had reserved for himself all year round, while Yan Ci went to do some other things.
Xiao Lidong and Yu Feng, who were standing in front of the stage, also figured out what was going on at this moment. They sighed endlessly in their hearts.
âDo you see that? This is the power of capital. He doesnât even need to do anything. The moment thereâs the slightest movement, they all rushed here.â
âThis is the real deal. Heâs standing at the top of the pyramid. Moreover, heâs so young. Heâll definitely have greater development in the future. I canât be envious!â
âAs they say, when the poor cause trouble, no one asks; but when the rich live in seclusion, they have distant relatives coming forth. This is all about strength. We canât compare to them..â
