The King of Urban Mercenaries

Chapter 926: Mu Group's Global Brand Ambassador


"Why?!"

Why do you want to sign me? I am a threat to your marriage, so why would you want to sign me?!

This is unreasonable, extremely unreasonable!

Because it is extremely unreasonable, it is also extremely incomprehensible.

Meng Ke'er couldn't understand why Mu Shanshan would want to sign her. If they were to swap positions, Meng Ke'er thought she definitely wouldn't offer help if she were in Mu Shanshan's position.

After all, not too long ago, she had engaged in a verbal duel with Mu Shanshan over having a private dinner with Lin Fei.

Even though they hadn't completely clarified their words, Meng Ke'er obviously wasn't foolish enough to think that Mu Shanshan couldn't perceive her affection and liking for Lin Fei.

Thus, Meng Ke'er naturally couldn't understand why Mu Shanshan, knowing that she was about to be sidelined, would propose to help her terminate her contract and want to sign her.

If it was purely for revenge, that would obviously be a bit redundant. After all, once she was sidelined, it wouldn't be long before she became a has-been singer. Thus, losing her only potential to compete with Mu Shanshan as the current popular singer.

Simply speaking, Meng Ke'er, sidelined by her agency, basically wouldn't pose a threat to Mu Shanshan anymore.

So, whether or not to seek revenge, it obviously wouldn't hold any meaning.

If Mu Shanshan was signing her to help her through the current crisis of potentially being sidelined, Meng Ke'er obviously couldn't understand that either.

After all, in some sense, helping Meng Ke'er would be like nurturing a rival in love.

Meng Ke'er obviously didn't think a brilliant businesswoman like Mu Shanshan would be foolish enough to do something so detrimental to herself.

Thus, unable to understand why Mu Shanshan would want to sign her, Meng Ke'er was eager to know the reason.

From Meng Ke'er's pretty eyes, Mu Shanshan clearly saw the urgency and confusion, but she didn't keep Meng Ke'er waiting long.

Not long after Meng Ke'er's voice fell, Mu Shanshan, after a brief consideration, said solemnly: "No matter what you think, there's one thing you can rest assured about. I do have dissatisfaction with you, and perhaps one day in the future, I might come to hate you. However, I will never harm you because the person you like is also the one I like. Just based on this point, no matter what happens in the future, I will definitely not harm you."

"As for why I want to sign you. Of course, it's not because I want to help you, but because, besides being Lin Fei's wife, I am also a businesswoman. Businesspeople pursue profits, and as the president of Mu Group, I want to sign you for the interests of Mu Group."

"Miss Meng, you may not be aware, but our Mu Group is in a high-growth period. Just a few days ago, I successfully opened the East Luoya market. I'm not saying this to show off but to tell you that our Mu Group is at a crucial stage of expanding into the international market. To put it simply, our Mu Group needs a new brand ambassador right now."

Here, Mu Shanshan's intention was already very clear.

Signing Meng Ke'er, then having Meng Ke'er become the brand ambassador for Mu Group, thereby using Meng Ke'er's global fame to further boost Mu Group's expansion into international markets.

A mutually beneficial deal.

Indeed, as Mu Shanshan herself said, besides being Lin Fei's wife, she is also a businesswoman. So, her perspective is different from Meng Ke'er's.

After hearing Mu Shanshan's explanation, Meng Ke'er, somewhat enlightened, stared intently at Mu Shanshan for nearly five minutes.

Not seeing any expression other than seriousness in Mu Shanshan's eyes, Meng Ke'er, withdrawing her gaze, murmured to herself, as if talking to herself, "My breach fee is very expensive."

After all, as a globally popular singer, tickets for one concert could fetch over a hundred thousand. Meng Ke'er's worth was self-evident.

Meng Ke'er has been in the industry for a few years. Although she signed with a management company before debuting, due to the company's years of nurturing, the money earned in the first two years of her debut was almost entirely taken by the company. However, as her fame grew daily in the past two years, the company started giving Meng Ke'er a share.

Although the money she received from the company wasn't much, since every concert she held was a sell-out, all of Meng Ke'er's assets combined amounted to twenty or thirty million.

However, this tens of millions is still too little compared to the breach fee for leaving the management company.

Her management company dared to ignore Meng Ke'er's personal attitude and choose to sideline her because they were sure that before the contract expired, Meng Ke'er, on her own, couldn't possibly afford the breach fee!

As for after the contract expires, by then, due to being out of the public eye for so long, her fame and popularity would surely take a significant hit.

This was the revenge of the father of Chu Shao, who was wanted by the police, against Meng Ke'er as a major shareholder of Meng Ke'er's management company.

Consequently, understanding clearly that her breach fee was nearly a hundred million, even though she knew Mu Shanshan valued her fame and popularity and wanted to sign her, Meng Ke'er couldn't help but be silent when thinking about her enormous breach fee.

Fortunately, Mu Shanshan's next words gave her complete reassurance.

"You don't have to worry about the breach fee issue. Whatever the amount, I will pay it for you. As long as you promise that after I help you terminate the contract, you won't sign with another company, I'll have my secretary contact your management company now to help you terminate the contract."

Upon hearing Mu Shanshan's words, Meng Ke'er, feeling a sudden lift in her spirits, immediately nodded without hesitation, saying: "As long as you, President Mu, can guarantee that I can continue singing and won't suddenly be sidelined one day in the future, I'm willing to sign with your company!"

"I can assure you, unless one day you don't want to sing anymore, the issue of sidelining that you worry about will definitely not happen!" After solemnly assuring Meng Ke'er, Mu Shanshan's tone suddenly shifted, "However, there is one thing I need to clarify with you in advance. Once you sign with our Mu Group, you can only endorse products from Mu Group from then on. In short, you'll be the full brand ambassador for Mu Group. As the full brand ambassador for Mu Group, your future life might need to follow the necessary constraints set by our company's PR department. I'll give you ten minutes to think about it, and after ten minutes—"

"No need, President Mu. I can answer you with absolute certainty now, I'm willing to sign with Mu Group!"

Meng Ke'er really didn't need much consideration. After all, if she didn't choose to sign with Mu Group, all that awaited her was a destined silence in being sidelined.

Relatively speaking, signing with Mu Group, though her life would be somewhat restricted, was not an entirely unacceptable ordeal for Meng Ke'er, who was already used to comprehensive control by her management company...
