Chapter 488: Chapter 488 Life is Like a Play_1

“`

The phone call had been made no more than two minutes ago, when Nando Brandon already arrived at Arvid Woody’s room.

“You… are President Radcliffe?”

His eyes glanced at the two women sitting in front of him, and a flash of astonishment crossed his mind.

Quella Radcliffe was that very delicate-looking girl, whom any boy would like at first glance.

Nando Brandon was also a man.

Although he usually dressed flamboyantly to please his fans and reap the rewards,

Inside, he was a regular man.

He had thought President Radcliffe, as described by Bran Cook, would be an old woman, but he didn’t expect a young girl.

“Hello, I’m Quella Radcliffe.”

Quella Radcliffe stood up with a smile and said politely, “I’ve heard of your fame for a long time, so I wanted to invite you to be an endorser. Would that be convenient?”

Since he was already there, she went straight to the point.

After all, Nando Brandon had a concert in the afternoon, and time was pressing.

“Convenient! Of course, it’s convenient!”

Nando Brandon smiled back at Quella Radcliffe, “It would be my honor to endorse for you.”

“This…”

Anna Harris and Quella Radcliffe were both stunned.

Was Nando Brandon so easy to talk to?

Had they known, there would have been no need to go through the trouble of finding Houston Green and the others, and they almost capsized the deal.

“Are you sure?”

Quella Radcliffe still couldn’t believe it.

Stars who had suddenly shot to fame usually acted high and mighty and had quite the temper.

Their demands for endorsements were high, with a long list of conditions.

Yet the line-leading idol, Nando Brandon, was so approachable?

“Of course! If Miss Radcliffe is not assured, I can sign the contract with you right away.”

Nando Brandon’s actions put Quella Radcliffe at a loss, as she had prepared a heartfelt speech and hadn’t said any of it, and now he was ready to sign the contract?

It was like a dream!

If they really signed Nando Brandon, Bran Cook would definitely feel threatened.

No matter how you looked at it, to land such a top-tier celebrity was already lucky enough.

“That’s the thing, Mr. Brandon, about the endorsement fee…”

Quella Radcliffe was really not flush with cash, with a maximum budget of eight million.

Cash flow was tight, and those small businesses were unwilling to pay, so the money had to come out of her own pocket.

She had inquired before; Nando Brandon’s stock had risen, and his endorsement fee was consistently high.

This final hurdle was the real test.

“Just give me whatever you can, don’t let me work for nothing.”

Nando Brandon smiled faintly, sitting next to Quella Radcliffe, “If there are no objections, this man here is our boss, Arvid Wody the Manager, you can sign the contract with him.”

“No! Let’s talk details, shall we?”

Quella Radcliffe was overwhelmed.

This was like a pie falling from the sky!

How did she come across such an opportunity!

They had been prepared not to even see Nando Brandon’s face when they arrived earlier.

But now, not only had they met, but they had also discussed so much, and were about to sign the contract.

The most difficult part, the endorsement fee, had also been smoothly negotiated.

“I’ll pay you…”

“One million!”

Nando Brandon held up one finger.

“This…”

Quella Radcliffe was truly startled.

Such a small sum to secure Nando Brandon?

It was like buying a BMW for ten thousand dollars.

It just didn’t make sense!

“What, does President Radcliffe think it’s too much? Then how about this! Five hundred thousand, just give me something.”

Nando Brandon’s shocking words continued, and even Arvid Woody couldn’t stand by and watch.

Such poor acting could easily give the game away.

“Ahem! Well, President Radcliffe, since Mr. Brandon is so destined to work with you, and this is the artist’s freedom. If he wishes to sign a low-priced contract with you, we’ll just go with the flow and offer a favor.”

“`

Arvid Woody was playing peacemaker in the middle, “How about this, three million, what do you think?”

“Okay!”

Quella Radcliffe nodded in agreement, her heart brimming with joy!

Three million was still a profit!

Securing Nando Brandon was her biggest surprise.

Because with Quella Radcliffe’s connections, it was impossible to find anyone more high-profile.

“Three million, wasn’t it one million?”

Nando Brandon looked at Arvid Woody, somewhat puzzled.

Previously, Bran Cook had instructed them to sign a one million contract so that they would have less to compensate.

But a seasoned fox like Arvid Woody naturally knew one million was unconvincing.

It would be too easy for people to spot the deception.

There had to be a more reasonable price, else it would inevitably raise suspicions.

But this Nando Brandon, his head was really thick!

Completely unable to improvise!

“One million, that’s what you’ll get in hand! As for us, we’ll take three million, do you understand?”

Arvid Woody still had to explain it to him with a straight face.

“Three million?”

Quella Radcliffe confirmed once more, and not just her, even Anna Harris was excited along with her.

“Right, if there are no objections, you can discuss the contract with our legal team.”

With a clap of his hands from Arvid Woody, a member of the legal team who had been prepared walked in right away.

The contract had already been finalized while they were talking.

“Miss Radcliffe, please review it first.”

Arvid Woody placed the contract in front of Quella Radcliffe and smilingly passed her a cup of tea.

But the two women were so frightened they outright refused.

The water from Enlighten Media was not clean!

After reading through it carefully and confirming there were no issues, Quella Radcliffe signed the contract with Arvid Woody on the spot.

“What a foolish woman.”

After they sent off Quella Radcliffe, Arvid Woody and Nando Brandon’s expressions instantly darkened.

“Tell Mr. Cook that the fish has taken the bait. I’m going to prepare for the concert, don’t bother me unless it’s something important.”

Nando Brandon left Arvid Woody’s room with a cold face.

“Pah! If it weren’t for someone paying a high price for you, who do you think you are? A duck!”

Watching Nando Brandon’s retreating figure, Arvid Woody cursed viciously.

After cursing, he picked up the phone and called Bran Cook.

“Mr. Cook, the fish has bitten.”

Arvid Woody’s tone once again became respectful.

This was a major funder, not to be offended.

“Good, check if my deposit has arrived,” said Bran Cook.

As soon as Bran Cook hung up, the finance department called Arvid Woody.

“General Whitaker, the company has received a one-hundred-million deposit, please confirm.”

“All right! I got it!”

Arvid Woody excitedly said, “We’ve really hit the jackpot this time! Three hundred million, my goodness, we’ve made more money than from a Nando Brandon concert!”

…

After leaving Valentine’s Hotel, Quella Radcliffe and Anna Harris got into their car, overjoyed.

“Anna, it wasn’t as difficult as I imagined, not having to face ninety-nine trials!”

Quella Radcliffe could hardly conceal the joy on her face.

For her at least, it was a massive success.

She, alone and without any connections or background, was able to secure the endorsement.

If Bran Cook wanted to outdo her, he would have to head to the capital to find a first-tier veteran superstar.

The endorsement fee for that would be astronomical.

“Who knew Nando Brandon would be so easy to talk to.”

Anna Harris sitting in the passenger seat, thumbs up, excitedly praised, “Bestie, you’re too awesome! What seemed like a sure failure turned into a success!”

“I’ll send a WeChat message to Julius Reed to tell him the good news!”

Quella Radcliffe laughed and sent a WeChat message to Julius Reed.
