Chapter 742 - 287: Begging Is Useless, Your Endorsement Must Be Revoked (Part 2)

Wu Yue turned his head and fiercely glared at Yang Yun, his look causing Yang Yun to shiver and step back involuntarily.

"Miss Yang, our contract includes a clause stating that the spokesperson must not engage in any actions that could harm the LV brand's image. Otherwise, we have the right to unilaterally terminate the contract and seek compensation. Isn't that correct?" Wu Yue asked coldly.

Yang Yun nodded guiltily and said, "Yes...yes, that's true. What's the matter, President Wu? What do you mean?"

Wu Yue: "Knowing this clause, Miss Yang, why would you do something that damages the LV brand's image?"

Yang Yun: "President Wu, for such a small matter, do you really need to be so serious? Didn't you want to discuss work with me? I thought clearing the area would make it more convenient for us to talk."

Wu Yue: "There is a lounge inside; we could go there to talk. How would other customers affect us? Most importantly, do you know who you are asking to leave?"

Yang Yun: "Aren't they just a few ordinary customers? I already said I was willing to buy more to compensate the store. What more do you want from me? Is it really necessary to tear things apart?"

Wu Yue: "This gentleman is the second-largest shareholder trusted by our LVMH Group. He came with friends to browse the store. What gives you the right to ask him to leave?

"Ah..." Yang Yun was shocked, using her "exquisite acting skills" to widen her eyes at Yang Chen.

Everyone else at the scene also widened their eyes at Yang Chen, including Lin Yiren, who was utterly surprised.

"Darling, did you acquire LV Company's shares?" Lin Yiren asked.

Yang Chen smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes! I find these brands impressive. No matter what dirty deeds they do, as long as there's a discount, consumers in Dragon Country line up to buy. So, their profitability must be strong. Acquiring shares to wait for dividends sounds good too."

This explanation was brutally straightforward: seeing that brands like LV were moneymakers, he bought shares to wait for dividends.

Wu Yue laughed and said, "Mr. Yang's reason is truly simple and domineering, thinking that LVMH makes money and so he acquires shares."

Yang Chen: "Haha... being straightforward and pure is how one should live."

Yang Yun quickly stepped forward and bowed to Yang Chen, saying, "Mr. Yang, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were the second-largest shareholder of the LVMH Group. Otherwise, I surely wouldn't have dared to treat you this way."

Yang Chen: "If I were an ordinary person, you could use celebrity privilege to drive me away. Right?"

Yang Yun: "No...not that...I...I didn't mean it that way. I..."

Yang Yun herself didn't know how to justify her actions.

However, one thing was certain: she couldn't lose the LV endorsement.

Since Yang Yun divorced Huang Da'an, her resources had plummeted.

From earning hundreds of millions per drama to now struggling to find work even for a few million, the drop was drastic.

Without Huang Da'an's resources, Yang Yun lost many endorsements.

Currently, the LV endorsement was her only guarantee to maintain her status.

If she lost the LV endorsement, she would quickly become a third or fourth-tier celebrity, and truly no one would pay attention to her.

So, no matter what, she had to keep the LV endorsement, even if it meant not getting paid or even compensating from her own pocket.

"Mr. Yang, I really know I was wrong. I will definitely watch my behavior from now on and never tarnish LV's image again. Please give me another chance, I'm begging you. I can treat you to supper later, and you can make any request. Okay?" Yang Yun said humbly.

Yang Chen had no interest in her—at least not any kind. A woman who had cosmetic surgery and a child and was divorced?

Yang Chen: "Thank you, but I've already had dinner with my girlfriend. Since you've violated the contract, let's just end this."

Wu Yue: "Miss Yang, please leave and don't harass our group's second-largest shareholder, or we won't be able to terminate the contract peacefully."

If the LVMH Group seeks compensation, Yang Yun would be in big trouble.

But she couldn't give up just yet.

"Mr. Yang, President Wu, the LV endorsement is crucial to me. I cannot lose it. How about this? I won't take the endorsement fee, I'll endorse LV for free. Would that work?" Yang Yun pleaded.

Wu Yue: "Do you think we lack that little endorsement fee? As long as the spokesperson's image is good enough, our LVMH Group can afford any endorsement fee. The problem is your image can't continue being LV's spokesperson. Do you understand what that means?"

Yang Yun had no options left, so she played her trump card, "How about this? I won't take the endorsement fee, and I'll even compensate you 5 million every year. Just keep the LV endorsement contract for me. Please, I'm begging the two of you."

Wow, everyone around was dumbfounded.

Forego the endorsement fee and give LVMH Group 5 million annually. Was that even an option?

This clearly showed how desperately Yang Yun needed this contract.

With the LV endorsement contract, other brands might approach her for exposure.

Without the LV endorsement, no other brands would likely contact her.

She understood this difference clearly.

Yang Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "If this gets out, won't they laugh at our LVMH Group for embarrassing ourselves? No need to say more; the contract must be terminated."

In her desperation, Yang Yun knelt down with a thud, saying, "Mr. Yang, please, I'm begging you. I really can't lose this endorsement; it's too important. Since my divorce, my resources have been declining steadily, and I'm almost out of work. Without the LV endorsement's support, I will really be finished soon. I have a performance-based agreement with my agency, and if I don't fulfill it, I'll have to use my own money to compensate. Mr. Yang, President Wu, please, I'm begging you. Give me one more chance."
