Avery blushed awkwardly.
"Here''s the thing. We would like to get Eric to be our spokesperson."
"Oh, I see! Since you are asking, Eric will surely agree to it," Eric''s manager said without hesitating. "Once he is done with work, I''ll let him know."
"May I ask how much his endorsement fee is? You can tell me, and I''ll discuss it with Eric," Avery said.
"Are you nning to sign him on based on his market rate?" the manager chuckled. "His endorsement fee isn''t cheap. Justst month, a makeuppany wanted him to be their spokesperson. They wanted him to be theirpany''s spokesperson. Are you nning to get him to be yourpany''s spokesperson or are you signing him on to endorse a single product?"
"Thepany''s spokesperson," Avery said.
"Oh, his charges for that are high! The makeuppany offered him a nine-figure contract." The manager was afraid that the amount would scare Avery, so he chose to give her a vague view of the amount she would be paying if she chose to sign Eric on.
Avery was not frightened at all. She knew that Eric''s poprity had soared these past few years, and he had been working really hard on acting and performing. His works were often on the trending list. "Otherpanies discuss the endorsement contracts with you, right?" Avery asked.
"Yes! They don''t have Eric''s personal number," the manager said with a chuckle. "You should discuss this with Eric. As even if I were to tell him about it, he would still call you. I won''t be the middleman in this contract. You know his temper. When he ispliant, he is fullypliant, and when he is resistant, he is fully resistant. He would rather quit than listen to what I have to say."
"Hmm. Did he ept to be the makeuppany''s deal?" Avery asked.
"No! It all depends on his mood, and whether he wants to ept it or not. The price does not matter." The managerughed haughtily, "Do you know why he didn''t ept to be the makeuppany''s spokesperson?"
"No, I don''t. If he didn''t ept it, there must be something wrong with thepany!"
"How could there be something
wrong with thepany? If they were willing to pay such a high price. for his services, then it surely shows that they are not a smallpany! They are internationally renowned. Many celebrities dream of being their spokesperson! Eric had rejected them before they hired someone he did not like to
rmend their products. Do you know why he did that?" Content
Avery did not know why Eric had done that. She only knew there was a difference between being a spokesperson for thepany and being a spokesperson for a product.
"It''s basically where thepany pays a few celebrities to help them advertise their products once. They were not even the product''s spokesperson." The manager took a jab. "I can only say that Eric is not short on cash, so he can be more capricious."
"He hasn''t taken on many endorsements." Avery rarely saw Eric endorsing anything. On the contrary, she only saw other famous celebrities endorsing things.
"Yes! Actually, manypanies
want him to endorse their products,
but he rejected them all. He wants to focus on his music and acting career. Entertainment programs are all the rage right now, right? Many programs wanted him on their show and offered him a high price for his services, but he did not sign any contracts with them either." The manager sounded extremely sad about that. "I have worked with so many celebrities. He could have gotten money without doing anything, yet he refused to sign any of those contracts."
"Respect his wishes! The most important thing in work is to be happy."
"How can I disrespect him when he does not even listen to me?!" The manager chuckled in amusement. "He is almost done with work. He has seen me talking on the phone."
"Then, why don''t you talk to him
about it!" Avery was suddenly a little
nervous. After hearing what Eric''s manager had said, she suddenly felt like she had been pushing a little too much. Eric did not like being a spokesperson, and yet, that was What she wanted him to do for her.
The manager agreed and hung up.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
About five minutester, Eric took his phone back and called Avery.
