Reborn in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 1980s
Chapter 450 Clear Goal
Hu Xiaoxiao finally heard some good news, took the contract, and began to examine it carefully.
This luxury brand had worked with her before. She is very famous in Baogang and has influence in Asia. This brand once asked her to be the brand ambassador for single product promotion in Asia.
Even though it was just a single-product promotion ambassadorship, the opportunity was so coveted by celebrities in the industry. Even the Baogang fashion circle took notice of it, and subsequently, their collaborations with her increased significantly.
Being the Asian ambassador for a high-end luxury brand is a rare opportunity for Hu Xiaoxiao. Securing this opportunity will elevate her status and give her more confidence when her company tries to secure other high-end luxury endorsements for her.
Anything that brings in money is good news. Hu Xiaoxiao checked the contract and, finding no problems, signed it.
Dong Peiyu took the signed contract and then mentioned two other pieces of good news: "In addition to this contract, two other international brands have approached me to discuss business. One is a cosmetics brand, the largest cosmetics company in Europe and America, and they also want you to be their spokesperson for the Asian region. The other is a famous watch brand, and they want you to be their promotional ambassador for one of their new watches in Hong Kong and Taiwan."
Dong Peiyu reported the agreed-upon terms to Hu Xiaoxiao. If Hu Xiaoxiao had no objections, they could proceed with the contract signing.
Hu Xiaoxiao trusted Dong Peiyu's expertise, and the company also had a legal department to oversee things, so she said, "You just need to follow up."
"Okay, I'll get back to them and try to get the contract signed as soon as possible," Dong Peiyu said, looking refreshed.
Having secured endorsements and promotional deals with three international high-end luxury brands in a row, this was unprecedented in Baogang. Dong Peiyu didn't know how Hu Xiaoxiao felt, but she felt like she had reached the pinnacle of her life. These achievements were things she had never dared to dream of before.
When Dong Peiyu agreed to become Hu Xiaoxiao's agent, her idea was simple: to help Hu Xiaoxiao establish herself in the film industry and become a top-tier movie star. Unexpectedly, Hu Xiaoxiao's growth was faster than she anticipated, or rather, faster than anyone else's.
Hu Xiaoxiao is no longer just a top-tier movie star; she's a superstar. Her influence has even extended beyond Baogang, gaining recognition in the international luxury goods market.
She is not just a celebrity, but also a member of parliament, and even more so, a source of capital, possessing the ability to determine the development of this industry.
She has grown to a level that many people can only look up to.
"Oh, right, Xiaoxiao, there's one more thing," Dong Peiyu said, bringing up the last matter. "The famous Hamlet Film Company in Hollywood has extended an invitation to you to play the female lead in a movie. Hamlet Film Company has produced many good films in recent years and is hailed as a rising star in Hollywood. The male lead in this movie is John, a very popular actor in Hollywood in recent years. His movies are all box office hits. This is a good opportunity. I think you should consider it. If you can become famous in Hollywood, it will enhance your future commercial value and status in the film and television industry."
Hu Xiaoxiao wasn't blinded by the rosy prospects Dong Peiyu described. She asked, "Have you read the script?"
"I asked them for a rough outline of the plot, and after reading it, I thought it was okay before I told you." Many Hollywood companies offered Hu Xiaoxiao roles, but most of them were supporting roles with poor character settings. They always wanted Hu Xiaoxiao to play villains or roles with explicit scenes.
Dong Peiyu was unhappy if she didn't ask Hu Xiaoxiao. Hu Xiaoxiao's image in Baogang has always been positive and proactive, but she went to Hollywood to play villains or open women. Wouldn't that ruin the good image that Hu Xiaoxiao had worked so hard to build?
Over the years, Dong Peiyu has turned down countless offers from Hu Xiaoxiao, many of which were fraught with difficulties.
Compared to those movies riddled with flaws, this one seems like a breath of fresh air.
Dong Peiyu took the plot summary faxed from the Hamlet Film Company and showed it to Hu Xiaoxiao.
It's a short film, a typical Hollywood movie with a strong male lead and a focus on individual heroism, with some fantasy elements. The story is primarily told from the perspective of the protagonist, played by John.
Although the content is brief and only briefly summarized, it is clear that the female lead's role is to highlight the male lead, John, making her a mere decorative figure.
Dong Peiyu said, "Although this film is a supporting role for John, it is my first time in Hollywood. To be able to get the lead role and work with a big star like John, with a pretty good female lead character and Hamlet's acting skills, I think it is a rare opportunity."
Dong Peiyu knew that Hu Xiaoxiao wasn't very interested in developing her career in Hollywood, but the current global trend in film and television was in Hollywood, so if the opportunity arose, she still hoped Hu Xiaoxiao would give it a try. Hu Xiaoxiao had recently gained some popularity in the fashion world due to the jewelry exhibition, so it wouldn't be bad to take advantage of this opportunity to make some money.
Hu Xiaoxiao pointed to the date on the back of the fax and said, "Their movie will start filming in two months, but 'Baogang Inspector Wears Skirts 3' will start filming next month. The filming period is three months. After filming, I will have to follow up on the distribution, release, and promotion. I can't leave."
She wouldn't sacrifice the whole for a small gain. Hollywood may be great, but her roots are here, and the "Police Woman" series is her signature work. By excelling in "Police Woman," her career can continue to flourish, and she can also mentor newcomers in the company, earning her even more money.
What did Hamlet Films value in her? Wasn't it her immense popularity in Hong Kong and her significant influence across Asia? As long as she remains popular and valuable, she'll never have to worry about film offers.
These decorative roles are neither too many nor too few, and it wouldn't be a pity to give them up.
Hu Xiaoxiao has always had clear goals.
"Let's cancel it." Hu Xiaoxiao returned the fax to Dong Peiyu and continued her work in the exhibition hall. In order to facilitate filming, ensure that the footage was high-end, and make the jewelry look exquisite enough to justify the advertising fees paid by the two jewelry companies, she and director Jia Zhendong and other staff members kept discussing the set setup.
Seeing that Hu Xiaoxiao had made up her mind, Dong Peiyu, although feeling it was a pity to give up the Hollywood opportunity, wouldn't hinder Hu Xiaoxiao's career plans. After so many years of collaboration, she had seen that Hu Xiaoxiao was not only a very thoughtful person, but also someone with keen insight. Events proved that Hu Xiaoxiao was ultimately right.
Dong Peiyu returned to her company and emailed Hamlet Film Company, politely declining their offer. She then contacted several luxury goods companies to discuss signing contracts.
Hu Xiaoxiao devoted herself wholeheartedly to the filming of "Baogang Inspector Flower 3". This movie not only continued the thrills and excitement of the previous two films, but also added more fashionable elements.
