Reference a managedBean inside Controller bean

Question

i want to pass reference of my Managedbean inside Controller bean as an argument. my Domain Entity is Brand. and i want to set properties of brand from JSF page component. and i want to pass that managedBean reference in controller method and this controller addBrand method getBrandService and save the respective brand Bean. please guide me. thanks :) this is my managed bean code:

@ManagedBean
@RequestScoped
public class BrandBean implements Serializable{
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    private String brandName;
    private String brandDecription;
//getters and setters
}

and this is my Controller bean for Brand: // addBrand Method takes brand instance as a parameter. brand is Model Object.

@ManagedBean
@RequestScoped
public class BrandController extends AbstractController{
    private IBrandService brandService;

    public IBrandService getBrandService() {
        brandService = new BrandService();
        return brandService;
    }

    public void setBrandService(IBrandService brandService) {
        this.brandService = brandService;
    }

    @Override
    protected ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
            HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
        return null;
    }
    public void addBrand(String brandName, String brandDecription){
        try{
            Brand brand = new Brand();
            brand.setBrandName(brandName);
            brand.setBrandDecription(brandDecription);
            getBrandService().addBrand(brand);
        }
        catch(Exception ex){
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

@ManagedBean
@RequestScoped
@SuppressWarnings("serial")
public class BrandBean implements Serializable {
    private int brandId;
    private String brandName;
    private String brandDescription;
    private List<Brand> brands;
    private List<Brand> filter;


    public List<Brand> getFilter() {
        return filter;
    }
    public void setFilter(List<Brand> filter) {
        this.filter = filter;
    }
    public List<Brand> getBrands() {
        return brands;
    }
    public void setBrands(List<Brand> brands) {
        this.brands = brands;
    }
    public int getBrandId() {
        return brandId;
    }
    public void setBrandId(int brandId) {
        this.brandId = brandId;
    }
    public String getBrandName() {
        return brandName;
    }
    public void setBrandName(String brandName) {
        this.brandName = brandName;
    }
    public String getBrandDescription() {
        return brandDescription;
    }
    public void setBrandDescription(String brandDescription) {
        this.brandDescription = brandDescription;
    }

}

@ManagedBean
@RequestScoped
public class BrandController {
    private BrandBean bean;
    @ManagedProperty(value = "#{BrandService}")
    private BrandService brandService;
public BrandController() {
        bean = new BrandBean();


    }
