As a large company second only to Shengya Clothing, Qicheng Clothing Company also has a certain reputation in the southwest region.
As the company's design director, Li Yuanpeng not only owns shares in Qicheng Company, but even the company's executives have to be polite to him.
Especially recently, Li Yuanpeng won the second place in the first fashion design competition in Sichuan Province. Logically speaking, this is the time when he is proud of his life, but Li Yuanpeng has been very frustrated during this period.
Although he won second place, in various news reports about the fashion design competition, he was overshadowed by a newcomer named Liu Na.
Not only that, because of what Chen Guodong said, his clothing works were even evaluated by some gossip media as commercial products and not worthy of being related to art design at all.
What's more, Li Yuanpeng's works are just plagiarism of popular Hong Kong style elements and are not worthy of being ranked second.
On the other hand, as a representative of grassroots counterattack, Liu Na became a representative designer of national style works because of Chen Guodong's words. Not only newspapers and magazines, but also TV stations invited Liu Na to participate in interview programs.
In the office.
Li Yuanpeng tore the newspaper in his hand into pieces, showing an angry look on his face.
“A grassroots person from a wild background, does she know what fashion design is?
These unscrupulous media are comparing her to me, which is simply disgusting!"
It's been less than half a month. He originally thought that the costume contest had been ignored by the outside world, but he never expected that Liu Na appeared on a talk show a few days ago. After the show was broadcast, it caused another wave of controversy. upsurge.
Even Liu Na has received a lot of high praise from the media these days.
"The female packaging worker counterattacked and became a fashion designer. She is a female benchmark for reform and opening up in Sichuan Province!"
"Take you into the life of farmer entrepreneur Liu Na."
…
Reports like this with Liu Na as the title have been very active in second- and third-tier newspapers in Sichuan Province in recent days.
"There must be someone behind this woman, otherwise how could there be such a propaganda campaign!"
Li Yuanpeng was not carried away by anger. In fact, since the end of the costume design competition, he has been asking people to investigate this woman named Liu Na.
He has not forgotten that in the costume contest, people like Qi Yu and Chen Guodong both said good things for Liu Na.
If it weren't for these two people, Liu Na would never be in the top three!
Jingle Bell!
Just as Li Yuanpeng was deep in thought, the phone on the table suddenly rang.
"Hello, I'm Li Yuanpeng..."
After picking up the phone, Li Yuanpeng said.
"Director Li, it's me, Dai Weimin from Starlight Magazine."
"Brother Dai, why did you remember to call me?"
Li Yuanpeng asked with some surprise.
Starlight Magazine is a third-tier magazine recently established in Chengdu. It used to mainly produce clothing magazines, but it has always been tepid. Recently, it has started to engage in industry gossip, and it has gained a bit of fame.
And this Dai Weimin is the editor-in-chief of Starlight Magazine. He has interviewed Li Yuanpeng several times, and there is some personal relationship between the two.
"Brother Yuanpeng, have you forgotten that last time you had a drink, you asked me to help you find out about Liu Na. I have found exclusive and breaking news. The kind that can discredit her by keeping it."
On the phone, Dai Weimin said mysteriously.
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanpeng suddenly became energetic and asked with bright eyes:
"Lao Dai, what news did you find out?"
On the other end of the phone, Dai Weimin gave up: "This news is guaranteed to be explosive, but if I say it on the phone, is it..."
"I understand, it's really inconvenient to talk about this on the phone. Let's do this. I'll treat you tonight at the old romantic nightclub."
Of course Li Yuanpeng understood the meaning of Dai Weimin's words and quickly invited him.
Dai Weimin agreed wholeheartedly, and after the two made an agreement, they hung up the phone.
Just as he hung up the phone, Li Yuanpeng couldn't help but frown.
"Bah, how can I not know what you are thinking, you old pervert?
But since you dare to talk to me like this, this guy must have something really extraordinary in his hands."
After pondering for a moment, Li Yuanpeng's eyes flashed with a cold look.
"Anyway, if you can really suppress this woman for me, you will be doing me a big favor."
Li Yuanpeng couldn't help but feel angry when he thought about his humiliation in front of many reporters at the costume contest that night.
Opening the drawer, he took out a wad of banknotes from his own drawer, then stood up and walked out of the office.
Two hours later.
After cleaning up, Li Yuanpeng came to the Red Romantic Nightclub in the downtown area.
This nightclub is a famous gold-selling cave in Chengdu. It is said that the owner of the nightclub has a strong background, and even people from many walks of life do not dare to cause trouble here.
Li Yuanpeng was also a frequent visitor to the nightclub. As soon as he entered the door, Mamasang, whom he was familiar with, hurriedly came forward to greet him.
"Oh, boss Li is here. Your friend has already arrived and is waiting for you in the private room!"
Li Yuanpeng didn't take it seriously when he heard Mamasang's words.
He had come into contact with Dai Weimin, and he had some skill with his pen. He often wrote some hot gossip in his own magazine, but he spent a lot of unconscionable money.
This person is usually lustful and greedy for money.
The reason why Li Yuanpeng made friends with him was because he wanted to use his power in the media industry to help him create a more successful image.
Soon.
Li Yuanpeng pushed open the door of the private room.
Under the flickering light bulb, Dai Weimin was seen hugging two scantily clad girls. He started drinking before Li Yuanpeng arrived.
"Boss Li..."
When the two girls accompanying Li Yuanpeng saw him, they both smiled and said hello.
"Brother Yuanpeng, please sit down quickly. It's been a long time since you and I were drunk."
Sitting between the two girls, a middle-aged man wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, a thin face, and a lewd smile is the person Li Yuanpeng wants to see.
"What I'm saying is, I'm late today, so I'll punish myself with a drink!"
As soon as he saw Dai Weimin, Li Yuanpeng suddenly showed a warm smile on his face. As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass on the table, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
After finishing the glass of wine, Li Yuanpeng also sat aside.
He originally wanted Dai Weimin to take the initiative to speak, but he didn't expect that the old boy would hug the two girls and keep grinding tofu, completely treating Li Yuanpeng as air.
He was slightly angry in his heart, but Li Yuanpeng did not get angry.
The fact that Dai Weimin dared to act like this shows that the other party might actually have something good in his hands.
Thinking of this, Li Yuanpeng was not in a hurry. He poured another glass of wine and paid homage to Dai Weimin.
