The Mightiest Little Peasant Webnovel - Chapter 644
Chapter 644: Endorsement Deal
Early in the morning.
Tang Hao carried his backpack and walked out of his apartment. When he came downstairs, he subconsciously looked towards the entrance of the stairway.
In the past, a familiar figure would be standing there waiting for him. When she saw him, she would greet him sweetly, “Good morning!”
Then, they would squeeze on the bus and go to class together.
Today, there was no one there.
He stood on the spot, feeling a little confused. After a long time, he shook his head and walked forward.
He arrived in Huaxia last night. When he landed, he called her and confirmed that everything was well. Only then did he feel relieved.
‘If she’s the Divine Eagle once more, she won’t be returning here again, right?’ Tang Hao thought.
He took the bus and arrived at the university.
“Hey! Isn’t that Tang Hao! That’s strange! Where’s that foreign girl?”
Many people were curious when they saw Tang Hao alone.
“Brother Hao, where’s Eve?”
Cao Fei and the others were also puzzled when they saw Tang Hao in the classroom.
“She left!” Tang Hao said.
“What? Where did she go?” Cao Fei was surprised.
“She went back to wherever she came from. She might not come back anymore!” Tang Hao said.
Cao Fei and the others were stunned for a long time. Then, they sighed.
“Too bad! She was a sight for sore eyes!”
Tang Hao browsed the Internet on his phone while in class. He scrolled through Tieba and Weibo, then went on the various chat groups and gave out red packets, which earned him waves of adulation.
He searched for news about Haotian Pictures. Most of them were reports about the company’s latest developments.
Haotian Pictures had been making waves recently.
First, they announced a sequel for “Mao Mountain Taoist Master,” which caused a sensation.
They also signed a few directors and screenwriters who had good reputations in the industry. Then, they signed a large number of young directors and screenwriters under a mentorship program.
Those developments generated a lot of discussions in the industry.
At about nine o’clock, a piece of news broke out in Liu Bingyao’s fan group.
“This is too much! Someone snatched Baby Yao’s endorsement deal! It’s this damn woman!”
The person who spoke sent a photo to the group.
In an instant, the entire group was in an uproar.
Everyone was happy that Liu Bingyao had managed to land an endorsement deal the day before. It was Liu Bingyao’s first major endorsement deal, and it was a well-known beverage company.
“Isn’t that Zeng Yan? F*ck! How dare that third-rate star steal our Baby Yao’s endorsement deal?”
The fans were all furious.
“Zeng Yan?” Tang Hao pondered for a moment and remembered that the person was also a singer. She was the winner of a talent reality show.
She did not sing well, but she was rather good-looking. She had a considerable following because she dressed scantily and loved to stir up drama.
“How despicable!”
The chat group was filled with curses.
“I can’t stand it! Let’s go and flood her Weibo.”
Some random guy said that, but those words immediately mobilized the crowd to start a war of words on Zeng Yan’s Weibo.
Tang Hao observed the situation for a while. After class, he called He Meiting.
“Sis Meiting, what’s going on with that endorsement deal?”
“You saw the drama? Everything was fine yesterday, and we were supposed to sign the contract today, but I didn’t expect the other party to suddenly go back on their word. I suspect that someone is doing this on purpose.”
“On purpose?” Tang Hao was taken aback.
“Yes, I think they’re deliberately embarrassing us. Zeng Yan is famous for being petty. Previously, when Bing Yao debuted and took first place on the charts, she also released a new song. I heard that she spent a lot of money to make it onto the charts, but it was still useless.
“I guess she had a grudge with Liu Bingyao after that. A woman can be very scary when she’s petty. I’ve seen many female celebrities tear each other apart and plot against each other in secret.
“Zeng Yan seems to have a powerful backer behind her, which should be why she could snatch the endorsement. She’s deliberately embarrassing us. You ought to listen to the words she used on us earlier.”
He Meiting said angrily.
“I see!” Tang Hao frowned.
“Boss!” He Meiting suddenly called again.
“What?”
“Bingyao seems to be quite disappointed. Why don’t you comfort her? She went home earlier because there was nothing else to do,” He Meiting said.
“OK!” Tang Hao responded.
After ending the call, he pondered for a while and dialed Liu Yan’s number.
“Hello, Chairman Tang! What’s the matter?”
Liu Yan seemed to be busy.
“Let’s find a spokesperson, Sis Yan!”
“What?” Liu Yan was taken aback.
“A spokesperson! All of our products haven’t had a spokesperson yet, right?”
“Oh! That’s true. We’ve been planning that for a while now, and it’s about time. However, there are too many people fighting over the spot! Many big names and A-list agents have contacted us.”
“I have someone in mind!”
“Who?”
“It’s Bingyao, the singer. Do you know her?”
Liu Yan was stunned for a moment, then she said, “Oh.”
She could guess what her boss was trying to achieve.
“Alright, that settles it! Chairman Tang, what do you want her to endorse?”
“Bingji Beauty Cream and Vitality Sports Drink. Those two are the most suitable,” Tang Hao said.
“Good idea!” Liu Yan said, “She’s a good choice, and she’s from Westridge too. Of course, we have to take care of one of us!” She sounded mischievous when she said that.
Liu Bingyao had been very popular in Westridge recently. Liu Yan also knew that she was a classmate of Chairman Tang, and they had dated each other.
After ending the call, Tang Hao called Liu Bingyao.
Liu Bingyao was curled up on the couch with a sullen expression on her face. When she received the call, she immediately sat up.
Joy appeared on her delicate face.
“What’s the matter?”
She suppressed the excitement in her heart and tried to sound as calm as possible.
“Are you free to hang out now?” Tang Hao asked.
“Yes!”
“I’ll come and pick you up!”
After ending the call, Tang Hao skipped the next two periods and rushed to Liu Bingyao’s house.
He came to the door and waited for a long time before she opened it.
She wore a mask and sunglasses.
Tang Hao could not help but laugh when he saw that. He handed her a jade talisman and said, “No one will be able to recognize you if you wear this.”
She was surprised, but said happily, “Really?”
Tang Hao nodded.
“That’s great! I have to be very careful when I go out of the house. I’m afraid that I’ll be recognized. The paparazzi are everywhere,” Bing Yao said, somewhat frustrated.
She put the jade talisman on her waist, took off her mask and sunglasses, and followed him out.
At first, she was worried, but later, when she passed by many people and they did not recognize her, she became bolder.
“How wonderful!” She held the jade talisman and said happily.
She skipped ahead. Occasionally, she would turn her head and glance at Tang Hao. Her eyes were brimming with joy.
“What are you so happy about?” Tang Hao was taken aback.
“Nothing!” She shook her head and stretched out her hand to Tang Hao. “Let’s go shopping and eat a lot of delicious food.”
She smiled brightly.
Under the sunlight, her smile was like a scene in a dream. She was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting.
Tang Hao was stunned and stretched out his hand. She took his hand and strode forward.
