Chapter 348
The Billionaire’s Maid Bride
Aaron got up, strutted over to the white backdrop and started the shoot, the latest model of the phone from the brand in his hand. The professional shoot went smoothly and both the photographer and the brand reps were chuffed The honcho from the brand side approached him and said, âMr. Aaron, weâve been working for two years now. Itâs been a blast and we hope we can keep this show on the roadâ
Aaron had been the face of this brandâs mobile products for almost two years now, but the phone he was shooting with today was not the latest model, it was an old one His agent sidled up to him, murmuring. âMr. Aaron, our contract is up next month, we need to mull over whether to renew or switch to another brand.â
The brand guy seemed quite earnest, âIndeed, we ve been in this together for two years now. If we renew, weâll fork out an extra half a mil than last yearâ Everyone in the business knew the worth of having Aaron as a brand ambassador. He was picky about the brands he endorsed, but he was both famous and talented. He snagged the title of âBest Actorâ at just 26, with rave reviews. Any brand that could get him on board would be laughing all the way to the bank.
Aaron and this phone brand had had a jolly good time collaborating for two years, but this time Aaron turned them down, âIâll sit this His agent blinked, âMr. Aaronâ
Aaron told his agent, âI ll sit this one outâ
one out!
The brand guy was getting antsy, they got along famously and they h was Aaron giving them the cold shoulder?
even bumped up the endorsement fee. Besides, they were a big brand, so why âMr. Aaron, please mull it over. Hereâs the deal, Iâll bump up the endorsement fee by another million dollars. The brand guy said.
âNo need.â Aaron quirked an eyebrow, and put on his shades, prepping to make an exit. His agent quickly blocked the brand guy, a few bodyguards trailing behind Aaron.
Aaron got into the car, he had just wrapped up a movie a few days ago, and was planning to take a breather. The car was stuck in traffic in the central business district, and it took a pause.
His agent, somewhat puzzled, asked, âMr. Aaron, that guy seemed quite earnest, why did you turn down the offer?â
Aaron took off his shades, glanced out the car window, seeing an advertisement outside a phone shop.
A woman in a red dress, phone in hand: her smile was beautiful but a tad tacky It was Penelope, the fiancee of the fourth son of the Lindberg family She managed to score an endorsement deal with a mobile phone brand, without any notable work to her name and before her debut, all thanked to the Lindberg family and Epic Entertainment.
Coincidentally, it was the same brand Aaron was endorsing He nonchalantly said, âJust didnât feel like it, is that a problem?â
The agent quickly responded, âNo, not at allâ
The brand guys were clueless about got into Mr. Aaron today, he was on the phone one moment, laughing, but suddenly went stone-cold serious The car crawled forward due to the traffic jam, the agent instinctively looked out the window, spotting an advertisement, âIsnât that Penelope? How did she end up endorsing this brand too? His eyes quickly shifted to Aaron, who was sitting with his shades on. Could Aarons refusal to renew the contract be because of this?
The agent quickly brushed it off. Penelope, even before her debut, was leveraging her family resources to score endorsement deals. With a wealthy family, she also got the backing of Lindberg Corporation.
But she would not have a stellar career. She was in the entertainment industry not to act, but to bask in the adulation.
Sharing an endorsement with her, of course, Aaron would be put off.
âAaron, you agreed to play the special male lead in Melody of Delight, Epic Entertainment sent us a script. The crew over there was decent, but there were two artists from Epic Entertainment in it too. Itâs a production company under Lindberg Corporation, flat out rejecting them wouldnât be kosher.â The agent said.
Ja dosent line up.
