With a violent impact, a metal lighter was thrown out and hit the coffee table. A spiderweb-like crack was instantly created on the originally smooth glass surface.
Behind the slightly dim light, the owner of the lighter was the one who had just browsed the comment section of the hottest news at the moment. He was also the other protagonist who was cueed in the comments of many Chi Jingyuan fans, Quan Zhilong.
His face was very ordinary, his orange hair was messy, and his eye sockets were slightly sunken. It looked like he had not had a good rest last night.
Last night I went to the club late into the night with my friends. I went home feeling dizzy and fell asleep. When the news first came out in the early morning, my manager sent a message to inform him, but it wasn't until the afternoon, when I just woke up.
I just saw the news from my agent.
Then I turned on my phone and swiped it, and saw this.
It was indeed beyond his expectation that Chi Jingyuan could directly become the spokesperson for a top luxury brand like GUCCI. Having been in contact with Chanel and the European fashion circle for many years, he knew very well the deep-rooted arrogance of those so-called blue blood brands.
For artists in Asia, except for a few, most people have always looked down upon them.
Even though he has been close to Chanel for so many years and participated in so many events, the fact that he still has not received a clear title is a good proof.
But before he could be surprised that Chi Jingyuan got the title, he was irritated by the ubiquitous messages from EXO fans.
What "GD likes to lick Chanel so much".
What did I lick? Do you know the status of the only idol in the peninsula who was invited by Chanel to watch the show?
"I've been licking for several years and still can't get a title."
Who told you that I can’t get it? Did you know that we are negotiating now? Will I reveal it to you when it will be made public?
“GUCCI is ranked number one among the top six blue blood luxury brands!”
Can you have a little common sense? Chanel is the only one competing for first place, and GUCCI may not even be able to make it into the top three.
"GD kneel down!"
I kneel%￥, Assi...
Seeing the arrogance and anti-intellectual remarks made by these Chi Jingyuan and EXO fans, G-Dragon felt like his whole body was on fire and his liver was hurting with anger.
Logically speaking, the fact that Chi Jingyuan got the endorsement had nothing to do with him, but these idiots Ai Li just dragged him into it and carried out a series of personal attacks with great satisfaction.
Faced with Ai Li, who was gaining momentum because of Chi Jingyuan's extravagant endorsement, even his fans tried their best to launch a rebuttal, but unfortunately the other party's main character had a resounding performance. Many fans' rebuttals seemed to be very weak, and had the taste of jumping over the wall.
Just to make people laugh.
No matter who you are, after waking up with a hangover all night, you will know that you have suffered an unreasonable disaster. After being ridiculed crazily on the Internet, you will look furious. G-Dragon is like this. Just now, he really couldn't help but give away his favorite lighter.
Throw it out.
In addition to resenting the retardation of these fans, he also naturally vented his anger on Chi Jingyuan... But in fact, the relationship was very bad, so it didn't matter whether he vented his anger or not.
After trying hard to forget about these retarded fans of EXO, he came to his senses and discovered that Chi Jingyuan became the spokesperson of GUCCI, which actually had a great influence on him.
He had never competed head-on with EXO last year. Although the performance and influence of several songs in the album were very good, he also realized through the applause of several singing programs that a new generation has replaced the old ones, and the idols of their generation
It is indeed coming to an end soon
Moreover, the group Bigbang is about to face the military retirement period, and several members of the team are already very conflicted with each other. He himself does not have too much nostalgia for the idol profession, and the group has just enough time to rest and focus on fashion.
.
He has gone a long way in the fashion industry. After several years of hard work, fans and passers-by have formed an impression of him as the 'Fashion King'. Over the years, he has been known as the 'Peninsula's No. 1 Fashion Man'. This
The title is not limited to actors or idols, it applies to all artists.
Chi Jingyuan is not exclusively beautiful, because he is also an idol whose influence exceeds the idol profession itself. Most people in the peninsula have long stopped treating him as an ordinary idol, except for his creative ability.
, high-end fashion lines and influence also contributed a lot.
But now Chi Jingyuan has also been involved in the fashion industry, and even directly won the title of regional spokesperson, which he could not even imagine. The title of "fashion number one" that originally brought him a lot of honors and benefits is about to be replaced before his eyes.
has been replaced.
The memory of the nation is limited, and at the same time it is prioritized. They tend to only remember the person who impressed them the most in certain aspects. After today's news spreads, in the future, when the adjective "Peninsula Fashion" comes to mind,
Their first association was no longer with him, but with Chi Jingyuan.
This impact was huge for him.
After thinking angrily for a while, he didn't bother to care about the thrown lighter and broken coffee table. He picked up his cell phone and called his agent.
The agent seemed to have been waiting for his call for a long time. After answering the call, he asked directly: "Are you up?...Did you see it?"
"I saw it."
After exhaling to suppress the anger in his heart, Quan Zhilong whispered back.
"Axi really didn't expect it... I heard people in Europe mention it some time ago that GUCCI seemed to have found an Asian spokesperson, but I didn't expect it to be Chi Jingyuan."
The agent's tone seemed a little excited: "Obviously SM doesn't have any connections in the European fashion circle, so I don't know how they got this case... I just made inquiries with Chanel, guess what?
What are you talking about? They said that GUCCI came to see him and took the initiative to find him. After two years of inspection, he signed the contract. Isn’t it ridiculous..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! They have indeed made a lot of progress after being in the European fashion circle for so many years. They have good connections and have received vague information earlier, but they didn’t take it seriously.
, I originally thought it was an artist from the neighboring country of Xia, but I didn’t expect that in the end I chose an artist from the Peninsula, a peer with direct competition.
This is the worst possible outcome.
After listening to the agent carefully introduce the details of the cooperation between Chi Jingyuan and GUCCI, GD interrupted him impatiently: "Let's not talk about this for now... How is our negotiation with Chanel going?"
Speaking of this, the agent's tone became much better: "The talks were very good. The general direction, including the title and product line, has been determined. Now we are still discussing some details. According to the plan,
It will be officially announced by the end of the year.”
What those retarded Ellie said about ‘you can’t get a title even if you lick it for a few years’ is really nonsense, because in fact, after several years of cooperation, GD has already confirmed that he will get the Chanel title, and now he is just still discussing the details.
So those EXO fans don't understand at all. They don't know how difficult it is to get a title from a top luxury brand and how long the review period is.
Although they are both blue blood brands, Chanel is higher than GUCCI in terms of style, especially since GUCCI was almost out of business in the past few years. It was only after the new fashion director took office last year that it came back to life and became better.
And this is what he is most angry about. Originally, after the cooperation with Chanel was announced at the end of the year, it would definitely cause a big shock in the peninsula, but now the lead has been taken by Chi Jingyuan. Look at the jealous people outside.
The restlessness should originally belong to him.
For this kind of thing, only the first one has the greatest influence and the biggest dividends... When he makes it public at the end of the year, it won't be as shocking as it is now, even if Chanel is a little more powerful than GUCCI.
...But if those anti-intellectual EXO fans continue to brainwash those who don’t understand, GUCCI will probably become the number one luxury brand by the end of the year.
And his title is not as high as Chi Jingyuan.
So when GD heard the news at this time, he was not as happy as before. Instead, he asked in a low voice: "Is the product line still only limited to shoes?"
The full title given by Chanel is "Global Ambassador of Chanel Shoes Series". It sounds very powerful because of the global limitation, but in fact there is only one product line, and it is only an image ambassador, which is much worse than Chi Jingyuan's full-line spokesperson.
.
Of course, if it weren't for Chi Jingyuan's appearance, he would naturally be very powerful and groundbreaking in the entire peninsula fashion industry.
"Currently, what has been confirmed is shoes. I heard from Chanel that after the cooperation is reached, it may be expanded to ready-to-wear lines... But this time, that's all it will be."
"What about the title? Can it be promoted to spokesperson?"
"Hmm...it's a bit difficult."
"Can't we reduce the endorsement fee appropriately?" GD's voice suppressed his anger.
"The endorsement fees of Peninsula artists will be lower... and currently, the mainstream of these European brands still choose European and American artists to cooperate, especially in the range of spokespersons, they use Asian artists..."
The agent hesitated a little when he said this: "I'm still a little cautious."
Hearing this, the previously suppressed anger finally burst out, and there was no extra lighter on hand. GD could only resist the urge to throw the phone out, and asked angrily in a hoarse voice after a hangover:
"Then what happened to Chi Jingyuan in Xiba?"
…………
"Tsk tsk, this is GUCCI. I really like the style of this brand, and my friend also likes it very much."
"I took a fancy to a denim jacket last year...but it was a little expensive."
"Hey, send a text message to Oppa Jingyuan and ask him if he can get a discount if he puts his name in the GUCCI store..."
It was getting late, and Red Velvet's nanny car was weaving in and out of the traffic on the road. They had just gotten off work from the TV station and were preparing to return to the dormitory to rest. However, the five members who had been busy for a day at this time did not feel too tired. Among them, Park Soo-young
, Jin Yelin and others were chatting enthusiastically about today's hottest news.
It's already shocking news in itself, but because the protagonists are familiar seniors and oppas, it only fuels this kind of sex talk.
Kang Seulgi also joined in and talked about her relatives and friends who were born in the same year, and they had a lot of fun talking to Park Sooyoung.
However, Pei Zhuhyun, who was sitting at the very back, had no intention of interrupting. He tilted his head to look at the street scene outside the car window. The two hands below him were pinching his fingers. He listened to the chirping in the car but seemed to be indifferent.
She was so moved that she would only answer a few words in a low voice when Sun Shengwan, who was sitting next to her, occasionally came over to ask something in a low voice.
At this time, Jin Yilin asked curiously, with some excited speculation in her voice: "Do you think that if Oppa Jingyuan wants to buy GUCCI things in the future, will there be a discount? Or will it be a direct gift from the brand?"
"As long as he needs a complete set of clothing and accessories for the event, GUCCI will take the initiative to take care of it. With just a phone call, the flagship store here or even Europe can send clothes."
Before anyone else could guess, after listening to them chatting all the way, the agent Quan Huiying, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around, smiled and said proactively: "And all the new products released that season will be given to him if he needs them."
Come here and have one."
"qingjia?"
"How do you know, Ernie?"
After hearing this, Jin Yilin and others immediately asked in surprise, their eyes a little red.
The idols on the peninsula have their clothes provided by the company when they perform on stage, but when they participate in other activities and need more high-end clothes or even dresses, they mostly rent clothes from local brands, but sometimes they can't borrow the latest ones of the season.
Sometimes someone else has worn the money, sometimes they still don’t like you, or even can’t borrow it...
Chi Jingyuan's treatment is unimaginable to most idols, especially female artists. Just thinking about it makes people jealous.
"Listen to what their manager Li Chenghuan said, Chi Jingyuan's endorsement has not been kept secret within the company a few days ago. This guy has seen the specific contract details, and what he said is definitely correct... Before
I have never heard of fashion endorsements being paid so well, and regional endorsements are really different..."
Jeon Hye Young's voice was obviously filled with envy: "Just because of this cooperation, EXO's entire management team has been praised by the company."
As she said that, she thought of the photos and messages she had seen in the work group these days, and couldn't help but click her tongue: "Tsk, just like for Yuan's Milan Fashion Week this time, our company sent a large number of employees to organize
We have formed a team and flew to Milan a few days ago.”
"They have booked an entire floor of the Four Seasons Hotel in the center of Milan. They have posted a lot of photos in the work discussion group in the past few days. The supporting facilities and decoration, the Four Seasons Hotel, make me a little envious."
"Is the company investing so much? Is it renting a Four Seasons Hotel?" Park Xiurong blinked, somewhat in disbelief.
"What? Our company is not so generous."
Quan Huiying sneered and shook her head: "It's all GUCCI's initiative. These people are all under the influence of Zhan Yuan..."
Obviously she is also interested in this matter, so it’s okay at this time. Quan Huiying also came to chat, and planned to take this opportunity to tell the children of the group the inside story and open their eyes: "This cooperation is actually
GUCCI took the initiative. They took the initiative to contact the company and said they were interested in cooperating. They started contacting and inspecting the company the year before last, and the cooperation was officially reached a few months ago."
"The company actually hasn't done much in this area, and it can't come up with anything... What kind of brand is GUCCI... People just come here for Chi Jingyuan."
"But even though the biggest dividend has nothing to do with us, it's not that we can't benefit from it..."
Quan Huiying paused for a moment and her expression became serious: "Originally, the company's fashion resources have not been very good, but this time, relying on the cooperation between Chi Jingyuan and GUCCI, we should be able to get through it after contacting the fashion circles in Europe.
At the same time, many local fashion brands and magazines will also rely on this time to deepen their ties with us. After this time, our company's fashion resources should gradually improve... "
Speaking of this matter, Quan Huiying thought of something and looked at Jiang Seulgi with bright eyes: "Seulgi, I remember you have a good relationship with Jingyuan Xi? I'll see if you can ask him to help you then.
Let me introduce a few, fashion resources are very important to idols.”
"Onie, we are just normal relatives of the same age..."
Jiang Seulqi seemed very embarrassed, and said: "If it involves these aspects... it's not good."
"Why are you still so naive after debuting for more than two years..."
Glancing at Jiang Seulqi dissatisfied, Quan Huiying spoke louder: "He is not an ordinary spokesperson, he is a full-line spokesperson. Do you know what that means? He can be exposed to all aspects of bags, fashion, and accessories. The person who has expanded his network
How powerful does it have to be?”
"And..."
Talking about some things that are not good for the company, Quan Huiying's voice became softer: "He actually has a very strong say in this cooperation, and the company's words are not as important as his... plus he
My treatment in the company is special. Sometimes just saying a word about this kind of thing is enough. It’s not as difficult as you think.”
"Resources, just like love, must be fought for."
"If you have resources, you will have them, and they won't run away. Even if they are not given to you, they will be given to others... I have heard that now the agents of several senior groups in the company have become active, and they want to let their subordinates
Children, get some resources...Girls' Generation has always had mediocre fashion resources, but now that there are less activities, many members are trying to develop in this area.
Sighing, as if she remembered something from the past, Quan Huiying became a little disappointed. She looked at Jiang Seulqi and the children next to her and said sincerely: "You guys already have a good relationship, what's wrong with this?"
I'm sorry, it's too late for others to envy you. You are so separated every day but you still feel that you are not close..."
"If you don't give it a try and compete hard when encountering something like this, you're so stupid. You think you are very noble. You will regret it when someone else robs you..."
The manager in front was working hard to teach the members experience. Bae Zhuhyun, who was sitting by the window in the back seat, bit her lower lip at some point. The pair of eyes that were originally calmly looking out of the car window became a little darker.
Since the separation, she has rarely participated in discussions about her ex-boyfriend. However, Ji Kyung-won is a topical person and often becomes the subject of conversations between Kim Ye-rim and Park Soo-young. At this time, she can only stay quiet.
Sitting nearby, either smiling or pretending not to pay attention.
But on the surface, she was not paying attention to it at this time, but how could she not want to hear about Chi Jingyuan's topic and many secret things...
But as she listened, she gradually felt something was wrong... Although Quan Huiying was talking about resources, she always felt that some of Oni's words were talking about her and her feelings.
Same……
I have been hearing his name since the morning until now, and now my manager accidentally mentioned it to me. I thought a lot at that time, and I couldn't control my emotions. A lot of things about getting along with Chi Jingyuan flashed through my mind.
and dialogue scenes.
"By the way, Joy, the company just informed me that there will be a shoot for "Cosmo" magazine in the near future. It has almost been confirmed. If XO agrees, I will probably be able to cooperate with Jingyuan Xi... I heard
They also came for Chi Jingyuan, so he pushed you over without time."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Isn't this good news coming?"
"I know, Unnie!"
Park Soo-young's joyful voice reached her ears. Pei Zhu-hyun tightened her hands and looked out the window in silence.
…………
"I think fashion is not just clothing and accessories, but also includes music, art, lifestyle and other fields. It is a way to show your attitude towards things."
"I am very happy to cooperate with GUCCI..."
"Thanks."
After answering the last two questions, Chi Jingyuan stood up and smiled and shook hands with the reporter. After taking a photo together, he watched Park Jae-hyun send him out of the room.
"Well……"
After the reporter left, he couldn't help but stretch deeply. This was already his third interview in the morning.
However, the content of each interview was similar. They all asked about GUCCI cooperation and related topics about his own understanding of the concept of fashion. He felt very tired after talking over and over again.
"A little annoyed?"
After seeing off the reporters, Park Jae-hyun returned to the room and looked at Chi Kyung-won lying lazily on the sofa and asked with a smile.
"Um."
"Then Jingyuan, you have to make some mental preparations. This is just the first batch. Many of them are arranged by GUCCI. Our people haven't come yet..."
Park Jae-hyun handed over a drink, but there was a hint of gloating in his tone:
"There is news from Seoul that after the endorsement matter was made public, it caused quite a stir in the entire Asia-Pacific region, especially in our country. It has been at the top of the hot search for more than a day. The response from the people is unexpected.
It’s very exciting. Because of this incident, many people who don’t usually pay attention to fashion weeks have become interested, and even more people want to know your first-hand news.”
“And the response from the local fashion industry has been very enthusiastic. I heard that many reporters, YouTube bloggers, and fashion editors have rushed over temporarily, and some media and editors of major fashion magazines have obtained exclusive interviews from the company...
Only then will you be busy."
"ah……"
When Chi Jingyuan heard this, he immediately frowned and couldn't help but mutter: "As for what?"
He felt cold all over at the thought of having to face countless interviews that were nearly identical.
Although I knew in advance that this matter was groundbreaking for idols and even the entertainment industry, I just thought that I could improve my status and influence in the entertainment industry. I didn't expect that now, in some aspects,
Enhanced the sense of national honor.
"Of course, it's the first time after all."
Park Jae-hyun shrugged, took a cup of coffee and sat across from him: "At this time, these high-end luxury brands in Europe are still very high-end and mysterious for Asia, especially in our country, which has an extraordinary obsession with luxury goods.
With love and admiration, it is very exciting that you can get the most luxurious endorsement."
You and I are not of the same nationality.
Chi Jingyuan keenly found the flaw in this brother's words, but he didn't say it out loud.
"And what you get is a regional spokesperson, not just a spokesperson for the peninsula. To a certain extent, it also enhances the pride of many citizens... You know our country as well."
You and I are not...
never mind.
"And with the first partner, many things in the European fashion circle will be connected with our country. At this time, Europe is the center of world fashion. The more aloof fashion magazines and fashion brands in China actually look forward to Europe.
From the fashion world.”
"But in general, the status is average. Many of the dinners and interviews of top luxury brands at large fashion weeks, and even high-end conferences of well-known design directors, the editors-in-chief and reporters of these magazines in our country cannot enter."
"But this time it's different...it's understandable that they are so enthusiastic."
At the end of the sentence, Park Jae-hyun's tone became a little playful: "Why is YG's fashion resources so good? Isn't it just like this? You are a hot commodity in the fashion industry. Whoever you want to be on the cover of a magazine is just one sentence."
Even the four major journals are small cases."
"Let's go, get ready. Next, we're going to GUCCI House to record an interview." Park Jae-hyun stood up and said something, then started packing his things while explaining things to the assistant next to him.
"..."
Chi Jingyuan finished the last sip of the drink and stood up. Just when he was about to let Cody check his makeup and clothes, the phone in his bag suddenly vibrated.
He took out his mobile phone and couldn't help but blinked when he saw the name on the caller ID.,
