Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 215 The Reality of the Entertainment Industry
When celebrities wear the same clothes, it will definitely become a hot topic.

It would be fine if it happened to other celebrities, it’s just fans competing with each other and marketing accounts hyping it up.

But if you run into an amateur, there are many interests involved.

A celebrity attends a high-end fashion show and wears the same clothes as an ordinary person. Is it because they can't afford to rent couture, or is it because the brand didn't prepare it for them?

Criticize you in various ways.

In addition to the fans of each artist, there is capital in the entertainment industry that spends money to ruin your reputation. It doesn’t matter whether they make a profit or not. As long as they make their opponent lose a profitable traffic artist, they win.

Most business wars in the entertainment industry are vicious.

Traffic artists like Wang Hedi, who are somewhat controversial on the Internet, are more likely to be swayed by the rhythm.

Before he even noticed Jiangbei City, many self-media cameras had already turned to Jiangbei City.

The agent who was following Wang Hedi immediately reminded him and asked his assistant to get some spare clothes.

But it is already late.

Cameras and cell phones were filming the two of them.

Jiang Beicheng didn't want to become a hot topic because of wearing the same clothes, and he didn't want Wang Hedi to be involved in a capital game in the entertainment industry because of a piece of clothing.

With a smile on her face, she walked towards him.

Wang Hedi immediately understood his intention and pretended to be an acquaintance to resolve the embarrassment of wearing the same clothes.

He also walked towards Jiang Beicheng with a smile, and the two shook hands and touched shoulders.

Jiang Beicheng held the clothes on his body and talked with him about fashion trends.

Wang Hedi continued with a smile.

The feeling given to other people at the scene was that two friends in the fashion circle, or fashion experts, gathered here to discuss fashion trends.

Use this method to reduce the attention brought by wearing the same clothes.

Wang Hedi was very grateful to Jiang Beicheng for helping him out.

The brand actually prepared clothes for him to attend the event today, which was also a heavily hand-embroidered jacket, priced at 56.

But he didn't like the neckline and embroidery pattern, so he chose the one he is wearing now.

This is also an early spring item, priced at 52 yuan.

Even if a customer buys it, it will be labeled "same style as celebrity" and it only proves that the customer is rich and willing to spend.

It has no effect on him.

Instead, it allowed brands to see his ability to sell products.

I really didn't expect to see another one at the fashion show, and the young man wearing this dress is not inferior to him in terms of temperament or dressing style.

The young man's style is not inferior to the masterpieces of stylists in the circle.

Such a comparison is awkward.

Fortunately, the young man reacted quickly and probably understood the dark side of the entertainment industry, so he gave him a way out.

Zhang Han understood their intentions and leaned over with a smile, "Fortunately, I didn't wear this dress when I went out, otherwise I would have been crushed by the two brothers today."

His words further proved that they were friends and had a good time together privately.

We discuss fashion trends privately and have many similar fashion items.

Jiang Beicheng smiled in his heart.

A chance encounter with wearing the same clothes immediately brought him into the entertainment and fashion circles.

"Boss Jiang, when did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"

After walking the red carpet, Liu Yifei entered the art museum and saw Jiang Beicheng. She walked over to say hello.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "Your President Wu invited me to come and watch the show."

Liu Yifei knew that the Mr. Wu he was referring to was Wu Yue, the president of LV Greater China.

Mr. Wu personally invited Mr. Jiang. Either Mr. Jiang knew him and was a friend or business partner, or Mr. Jiang was a loyal customer of LV and a top VIP.

Liu Yifei smiled awkwardly. Mr. Jiang was coming to see the show, so why did he need her help getting tickets?

Now it seems that President Jiang was taking care of her emotions as a woman and her little sense of honor that night.

Mr. Jiang is quite a gentleman.

Wang Hedi, who was standing next to him, was stunned for a moment.

Mr. Jiang?
Could it be another financial sponsor in the circle?
First it was Zhang Han, then Liu Yifei, both seemed to be very familiar with the Mr. Jiang in front of them.

While Jiang Beicheng and Liu Yifei were talking, he gently pulled Zhang Han's arm and quietly inquired about Mr. Jiang's background.

He has a good relationship with Zhang Han.

Artists in the Sichuan and Chongqing regions have good relationships with each other privately.

Zhang Han told the truth.

When Wang Hedi heard the owner of Beicheng Hotel, he remembered the hotel that was reported by CCTV during the Spring Festival.

Jiangnan City is a branch venue for the Spring Festival Gala this year, so it has attracted a lot of attention. Sichuan and Chongqing are originally one region, so he pays attention to hot events in both places, not to mention hot events that have been reported on CCTV.

While I admired the young boss in my heart, I thought of what happened to Zhang Han last year.

It seems to be this Beicheng Hotel.

This directly made Zhang Han and the capital behind him bow their heads, so he disappeared for half a year.

Wang Hedi couldn't help but guess Jiang Beicheng's true identity and the connections behind him.

The friendship between Liu Yifei and Jiang Beicheng further proves that Jiang Beicheng is very capable.

He turned around and smiled and called him Mr. Jiang.

He came straight away and was very familiar with me. We were half from the same hometown, so there was no complicated etiquette.

Jiang Beicheng actually liked his casual and chivalrous nature, and it was easy for him to get along with him.

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "What's going on with you guys today?
This can also be a hit clothes! ”

Wang Hedi and Jiang Beicheng spread their hands at the same time, expressing their helplessness.

"Hahaha, that's hilarious." Liu Yifei covered her mouth and laughed, "But Mr. Jiang's outfit today is not at all inconsistent. I didn't expect you to pay attention to the fashion world.

And such a deep understanding.”

It still has to be Lao Pi. He can tell whether he has any success or not just by taking action. Jiang Beicheng felt sorry for him again.

What a great stylist, it’s a pity that he didn’t follow the right artist.

"I got into this circle inexplicably." Jiang Beicheng joked.

"Mr. Jiang, you use the word 'play' very well. It suits your personality," Liu Yifei continued.

This young man is changeable.

Every time you meet him, your impression of him deepens.

It seems like everything has something to do with him.

But on the other hand, with his wealth, is there anything he can't figure out, or any circle he can't enter?

A few people were still chatting happily, and the stars who had just walked in after walking the red carpet also came over.

I thought my colleagues were chatting with a fashion celebrity or LV executive.

Everyone comes over here, thinking of saying hello politely.

When they came over to take a look, they found that the focus was actually an amateur, at least they had never heard of this person in the entertainment industry.

But since you're here, you should say hello politely.

After all, there are so many cameras watching.

You have to pretend.

Zhong Chuxi, Jin Chen, Zhou Dongyu, Wang Jiaer...these brand ambassadors all shook hands with Jiang Beicheng with a smile.

Jiang Beicheng deeply felt the reality of the entertainment industry.

Today, everyone treats him as a celebrity or financial sponsor in the circle, and is very polite.

When he first entered this circle, Jiang Beicheng was mostly pretending, imagining his own identity as an artist like Liu Yifei.

Just like the first time I stepped into the Jiangnan City catering circle, I was actually pretending, and that time I was quite successful.

Today I am pretending to be even more sophisticated than last time. After all, I have been in the business world for more than half a year.

Although he was pretending, Jiang Beicheng didn't think of himself as the kind of pretentious person who was trying to fool people. He was eager to get into the entertainment industry.

With the system and Lian Capital, he would sooner or later become a respected sponsor of these artists.

Today I got a taste of what it's like to be praised by the domestic entertainment industry.

feel good!
"Mr. Jiang, see you at the cocktail party later. I'm going to the show first." Liu Yifei said goodbye.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and nodded.

Wang Hedi and Zhang Han did not go to the artist area and stayed in the client area.

"Mr. Jiang, thank you for what I just said." Wang Hedi thanked him, "I owe you a big favor."

"You're welcome. It's just a small favor. I don't want to be on the trending search again." Jiang Beicheng looked at Zhang Han with a smile.

Zhang Han waved his hand and said, "I don't want to be on the hot search list with President Jiang. I'm scared."

The three of them smiled.

It is easier to communicate with fellow villagers.

Before the show started, LV executives walked in.

Wu Yue, President of Greater China, first shook hands with the celebrities, and then went to the Vic customer area to shake hands with loyal customers to express his gratitude.

For a show of this magnitude, it is completely sufficient for him, the president of Greater China, to appear.

If it were an international fashion week, the Bernard family would have sent someone, or even come in person. The show started straight after the opening dance music, without the usual leadership speeches in China.

The theme of this year's LV early spring women's wear show is "Fine Arts".

LV collaborated with the most representative young painters in China to present their paintings and creative ideas on women's clothing.

Distinctive personality.

The colors are beautiful.

Jiangbei Chen turned around and smiled at Shen Jun.

Shen Jun nodded. He knew what Jiang Beicheng meant and let her choose for herself.

He wrote down the ones he liked and then booked them using his Vic identity.

This was Shen Jun's first time experiencing this form of shopping.

The feeling can be summed up in one word: "cool".

I guess no woman can resist this temptation?
Global fashion supermodels will wear high-end luxury products that have not yet been released and display them in front of you. If you like them, you can pre-order them directly.

So cool.

She was increasingly able to appreciate the happiness of the rich.

Wang Hedi sat next to Jiang Beicheng and took the initiative to find topics to chat with him.

Fashion, food, basketball... there are many topics we can talk about.

To outsiders, it didn't look like they had just met.

The show lasted thirty minutes and was over quickly.

There will be a cocktail party afterward, which is like a social occasion.

Jiang Beicheng was pulled to a table by Wang Hedi and Zhang Han, and Wang Jiaer also followed.

After Liu Yifei finished chatting with several executives, she walked over here and sat down.

Zhong Chuxi and Jin Chen followed.

"Mr. Jiang, have you finished the discussion?" Liu Yifei raised her glass and clinked it with Jiang Beicheng, expressing her concern for the shop.

She hoped that the deal with Jiangbei City would not be successful.

Avoid huge losses.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and clinked glasses with her, "It has been transferred."

Liu Yifei looked at Jiang Beicheng in surprise, she didn't expect it to be so fast.

Is this how a deal worth 700 to 800 million yuan is negotiated?
"Still the original price?"

"Fifteen million was cut."

"Well, that's much more reasonable." Liu Yifei smiled and said, "I wish you a prosperous business in advance."

"Thank you!" Jiang Beicheng took a sip of red wine.

Zhong Chuxi, who was sitting next to Liu Yifei, asked curiously, "Is the property being transferred?"

She heard the word "transfer".

In Shanghai, the word "transfer" still has a certain value.

At this kind of gathering, people just chat along the topic and no one feels awkward.

Liu Yifei said, "The shop where Master Chen runs a Cantonese restaurant was bought by Mr. Jiang."

Many artists have dined with Master Chen.

Jin Chen turned around and asked in surprise, "Master Chen is no longer in the catering business?"

Liu Yifei nodded.

Zhong Chuxi was concerned about the shop, "The price of that shop is probably going to be very high.

How much did Mr. Jiang spend?

Jiangbeicheng: "7000 million."

Except for Liu Yifei, everyone at the table had a puzzled expression on their face.

This isn’t expensive!
It can even be said to be too cheap.

That’s a stand-alone shop on the Bund!

The value is self-evident.

Liu Yifei said: "The property rights are only ten years, and the land transfer fee after ten years will be very high."

Jiang Beicheng continued, "We're not sure what the policies and market conditions will be like ten years from now. Based on current standards, we'll have to pay over 600 million."

The impact of the six small goals is still very strong.

Among them, Liu Yifei has the strongest ability to make money, followed by Wang Hedi and Wang Jiaer... Among these traffic artists, Zhong Chuxi and Jin Chen are much less famous.

After deducting taxes, you can have tens of millions in your pocket in a year, which is already very impressive.

The Mr. Jiang in front of him is considering several small businesses.

When they heard the news, they were much more shocked than Liu Yifei.

No wonder everyone surrounded Mr. Jiang when they first came in. Mr. Jiang is the boss of Yingzang.

It is definitely beneficial to get to know and make friends with this type of young wealthy people.

Wang Hedi asked curiously, "It's so expensive, what are you going to do with it?"

The tone is the tone used between friends in private.

There was no baggage, nor was there anything to show in front of Jiangbei City.

His personality is very similar to those friends in Jiangbei City's underworld circle.

It's very casual to get along with each other.

Jiang Beicheng also said truthfully: "Open a restaurant."

"Dining room!"

Zhong Chuxi and Jin Chen were surprised at the same time.

A restaurant that costs hundreds of millions of dollars?
It's a bit beyond their understanding of investment.

"When will I get my money back? It's such a huge investment." Jin Chen read it out, and then said to Jiang Beicheng, "Sorry, Mr. Jiang, I didn't mean anything else."

Jiang Beicheng smiled and raised his glass, clinking glasses with hers, inviting her, "Master Chen is no longer doing this, I'll take over. You can come over when you're free, it's my treat."

Zhong Chuxi raised her glass and said, "As long as the food tastes good, I will definitely come. Chef Chen's Cantonese restaurant is almost becoming our canteen.

I visit here every time I go to Shanghai.

Does Mr. Jiang also cook Cantonese food? "

"Creative and fusion dishes." Jiang Beicheng said with a smile, "There will definitely be a few dishes that will stimulate your taste buds."

"I'm really looking forward to it." Zhong Chuxi praised with a smile, "It's rare to find someone as young as Mr. Jiang in the catering industry. You must be very passionate about catering, right?"

"You and I feel exactly the same." Liu Yifei interjected, "Mr. Jiang is using love words and passion to run the catering business.

If you go to Jiangnan City to film, you must check in at Beicheng Hotel.

It will give you a new understanding of dining and food.”

Jiang Beicheng smiled and clinked glasses with Liu Yifei, "That's too high a compliment, Xixi."

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "My true inner evaluation."

"Is it the North City restaurant that provides free reunion dinners on New Year's Eve?" The name sounded familiar to Jin Chen.

Jiang Beicheng nodded.

"Oh, you are the owner of Beicheng Hotel. I... I also forwarded that CCTV video at that time. It was so heartwarming." Jin Chen said excitedly.

Raise a toast to Jiangbei City.

With 600 to 700 million yuan as a foundation, Jiang Beicheng, the warm-hearted boss, is so warm in their eyes.

Jiang Beicheng raised his glass with a smile: "Thank you for your help in publicity."

"It's my duty, Mr. Jiang. I give you a thumbs up." Jin Chen gave a thumbs up.

She has a lively personality.

Zhong Chuxi smiled and asked Liu Yifei, "Is Mr. Jiang the one you had a scandal with last time? I saw you posted on Weibo."

Liu Yifei smiled and nodded. She was also speechless about that matter.

However, I was very happy to meet Mr. Jiang, a young talent, by chance.

Jiang Beicheng finished his drink and warmly invited, "When the Shanghai store opens, please come and be our guest."

Wang Hedi: "I owe you a big favor today. Let me know when the time comes. I will definitely be there."

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "Is it okay if I don't come?"

"What do you think?" Jiang Beicheng said with a smile.

Liu Yifei: "I will definitely prepare a beautiful gift for you."

The other stars responded verbally and promised to come back when they had time.

It is actually about weighing the actual benefits of participating in this store opening.

Jiangbei City is willing to spend money to invite celebrities to perform, and normal appearance fees are acceptable.

However, it is difficult to invite popular artists to open a restaurant, as the artists will consider the "level" and whether it matches their own status.

Now that Liu Yifei and Wang Hedi have expressed their intention to attend, the status of the North City Hotel has been raised, and it will be easier to invite others by paying.
