Being in the modeling industry, my information is updated daily.

Chapter 168 Vivian's Surprise: An Unexpected Encounter with the Number One in the Modeling World?
[Daily Intelligence 03: Duan Zhizhi contacted her mentor and obtained photos of numerous international designers. She then compared these photos with videos from Lin Qingsong's WeChat Moments, discovering that these individuals were mostly designers from well-known high-end brands, including several luxury brands. She quietly informed her mentor of this and asked her to keep an eye out for promising junior students so she could take Lin Qingsong to select some.]

Zhizhi.

That's the right approach.

It was worth it for Vivian and me to recommend you!

Lin Qingsong was very satisfied with Duan Zhizhi's reaction.

If she signed with her own company, she would definitely be able to bring along a group of freelance models who are on good terms with her.

This way, the composition of our studio will be the same as that of a foreign company.

There are both new models and established models who have been in the industry for a while.

This structure is very healthy.

Mentoring new employees is a valuable tradition.

It must be applied in all aspects.

[Daily News 04 (Green): The game given away by EPIC Games this morning is Kingdom Come: Deliverance. (Price: 111)]

OK OK.

System, your intelligence is really mixed up.

However, Lin Qingsong still quickly logged into the Xiaoheihe APP and claimed the game.

Even though he doesn't play, it doesn't stop him from receiving the prize.

Logging into your EPIC account and claiming the games they give you is already the best fun.

As for playing it, you'll have to go to Steam.

E-Father is great, but I choose Steam.

After reviewing all the information, Lin Qingsong went to the bathroom to wash off his sticky body and then went to sleep.

Half past five in the morning.

Although he had only slept for two hours, he was unusually awake under the influence of the sleep aura.

Lin Qingsong glanced at Vivian, who was still fast asleep, and did not disturb her.

He walked to the refrigerator, picked up a bag of M&Ms and ate them, then drank a few sips of milk before quietly changing his clothes, opening the door, and heading to the gym to exercise.

Before leaving, in case Vivian couldn't find him, she left a note saying she was going to exercise.

The gym at 5:30 a.m. was not empty.

A girl who looks aloof and distant is wearing headphones and doing squats in front of a Smith machine.

Ok?
Du Juan?

Upon seeing this woman, Lin Qingsong raised an eyebrow.

This is no coincidence.

Duan Zhizhi had previously told herself that if she saw Du Juan at Pete's party, she should ask her for an autograph.

I never expected to see it in the hotel gym today.

However, he didn't rush up to speak; he simply warmed up and exercised step by step.

Du Juan, who was wearing headphones, wiped the sweat from her brow after finishing her squats and looked at Lin Qingsong's back with a slightly puzzled expression.

This person?

It looks kind of familiar.

Where have you seen it?
And we only met recently.

But that shouldn't be the case; she's been filming on set recently.

I didn't even go out.

Since she had nothing else to do while exercising, Du Juan started reminiscing as she worked out.

As Lin Qingsong walked over, he said to her in a very casual tone, "Excuse me, do you still need this Smith machine? I might need it for my chest workout later."

"Oh, oh, oh, I have one more set, almost done." After Du Juan finished speaking, she looked at Lin Qingsong who was close by and suddenly remembered.

She saw it on her WeChat Moments; it seemed to be a video posted by several designers a while ago, showing them drinking at a bar.

Because Lin Qingsong is in the video, and his face looks exceptionally handsome.

At first, she thought this was a new model who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

But not long after, she saw it again in the same WeChat Moments post that Tang Yan made when she attended the Harper's Bazaar gala.

This made her a little confused, because in Tang Yan's video, Lin Qingsong was standing with Vivian.

If Lin Qingsong is really a new model, then he should go find designers from menswear brands.

He should never have been with Vivian, a women's fashion designer.

Although she was very curious, she realized that Lin Qingsong had no intention of striking up a conversation with her, so she didn't speak to him either.

When it was time to leave, Du Juan realized that Lin Qingsong still had no intention of talking to her, and she began to doubt herself and prepare to leave.

It shouldn't be.

Although she's not a big star, people in the fashion and modeling industry should all know her.

Even though she has been relatively quiet in recent years.

but.

As the first Chinese model to enter the world's most authoritative modeling website, To50, the first Chinese model to break LV's tradition of not selecting Asian models as global advertising ambassadors, and the first Chinese model to walk the haute couture runway.
She has broken many conventions for Chinese models on the international stage.

Even if she hasn't spoken out in the industry for several years, her legend should still exist within the industry!

How come this person didn't recognize me?
Just now.

After Lin Qingsong noticed that Du Juan was about to leave, he put down a pair of 30KG dumbbells and got up from his chair.

"Ms. Du Juan, may I have your autograph?"

He wasn't sure if Du Juan would attend Pete's party, but since he'd run into her, he might as well ask for one.

"Okay."

Hearing Lin Qingsong's words, Du Juan felt a strange sense of joy.

Looks like I'm not washed up yet.

He still recognized himself.

At the mineral water station next to the gym, Lin Qingsong found the notebook and pen for guests to write their feedback and handed them to Du Juan: "Ms. Du Juan, could you please write a sentence: I wish Duan Zhizhi continued success in the modeling industry and that she will soon step onto the haute couture stage. Duan as in game rank, Zhi as in cheese."

A signature alone is meaningless; this is much more interesting than a signature.

"Duan Zhizhi, right? Okay." Du Juan nodded and wrote the sentence on the paper with a flourish.

He then smiled and asked Lin Qingsong, "Is there anything else?"

"No need, can we take a picture together?" Lin Qingsong held up his phone and waved it with a smile.

"Of course, no problem." Although Du Juan looks aloof, she is just like most models; she is very lively in private. She smiled and nodded to indicate that it was no problem at all.

After the filming was finished, Lin Qingsong smiled and said, "Thank you for your help."

"No trouble at all." Du Juan hesitated for a moment, then asked curiously, "Sir, are you a model?"

Now that everyone has started the conversation, asking this question won't seem too presumptuous.

"No, but I'm a model agent." "Oh, I see." Du Juan thought about it and realized that the model agent was indeed much more reliable than the models she had guessed.

It's perfectly normal for people to deal with designers from different brands and of different genders.

After all, he certainly couldn't have only male models or only female models under his wing.

"Ms. Du Juan, do you have any activities in Shanghai? Coach designer Peter is hosting a party in Jing'an tonight. Will you be attending?" Lin Qingsong asked curiously.

“No, that’s not it. I’ve just finished filming a TV series in Shanghai recently.” Du Juan paused after saying that. “As for Pete’s party, I probably won’t go. To be honest, I don’t really like Western parties; they’re just too noisy.”

Given her status in the fashion industry, she certainly doesn't need to desperately seize every opportunity or try so hard to impress influential figures.

While attending such parties allows you to make an appearance in front of various big shots, those who don't like it might find it a bit noisy.

Lin Qingsong, on the other hand, likes these noisy parties.

It's fun.

Loves to play.

He also has the energy to play.

After all, he's not that old, and this kind of lively occasion is perfect for him.

Upon hearing Du Juan's words, Lin Qingsong couldn't help but applaud Duan Zhizhi's good fortune.

If he hadn't happened to be at the gym, he probably wouldn't have gotten Du Juan's autograph.

Not long after Du Juan left, Lin Qingsong strengthened his chest muscles and did a few more sets of squats with a barbell.

No matter what you practice.

Before leaving, I must practice my legs and boost my testicles.

After all, this thing is too important to men.

If you are deficient in testosterone, you may experience not only depression, decreased libido, insomnia, irritability, and memory loss.

They may also develop metabolic-related diseases.

After finishing his workout, he put the barbell back in its original position, stood in front of the full-length mirror, struck a few poses, and took a few selfies before leaving the gym.

Posing and taking photos are also essential.

Fitness is about pleasing yourself, and the joy of seeing your physique improve day by day is also a motivation for exercise.

The only pity is that there's no one around to praise him.

Otherwise, this feeling will be completely right.

Vivian's flight was at 3 PM, which meant she would depart around noon.

After going upstairs, Lin Qingsong went to the bathroom to quickly wash off the sweat.

When he came out, he saw Vivian sitting cross-legged on the bed.

"Lin, you gave me a surprise, and I'll give you one too." Vivian jumped off the bed when she saw Lin Qingsong come out, then pounced on him and clung to him.

"What?" Lin Qingsong looked at her in confusion. "What surprise?"

"Hehe, you'll see in a moment." After Vivian finished speaking, she looked at Lin Qingsong with admiration and said, "Lin, you are truly the most self-disciplined person I have ever met. I don't think I have ever seen you miss a single day of training."

She was quite self-disciplined, but every time she met Lin Qingsong, she couldn't get up anymore.

"Is it possible that it's because I'm stronger!" Lin Qingsong said, holding her with one hand and flexing his biceps with the other. "I haven't had enough yet, so I'll have to go lift weights!"

"Lin! You just wait!" Vivian rolled her eyes speechlessly and said, "I was careless today. Next time I'll bring a few more people, and let's see if you still have the energy to train!"

"Hehe, I can take on ten!"

"Yeah, right, I'll take you to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show next time, and we'll see if you can take on ten of them!"

"Must be able!"

After taking Vivian to the bathroom for a shower, the two prepared to go downstairs for dinner.

Looking at Vivian who had just finished drinking her milk, Lin Qingsong couldn't help but think of what Giovanni had told him: that Arn from Karujing Women's Wear had agreed to meet their female models to see if there was a chance to send them to Tokyo Fashion Week. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Vivian, will you go to Tokyo Fashion Week?"

“Tokyo Fashion Week?” Vivian shook her head. “I probably won’t attend. I need to focus my energy on New York Fashion Week at that time.”

"That's it."

“You probably won’t make it to New York. We’ll have to wait for Paris Fashion Week in September. If your company has any suitable models, I can help you recommend some,” Vivian thoughtfully offered to help Lin Qingsong.

After finishing breakfast, the two had just returned to their room.

Then there was a knock on the door.

Upon hearing this, Vivian couldn't help but smile and say, "Lin, this must be my surprise."

As she spoke, she walked over, opened the door, and held up a large box in both hands, saying, "Ta-da! A Hasselblad camera! What do you think, Lin? Do you like it?"

Hasselblad X2D 100C!!!

As an unofficial photographer with exceptional skills, Lin Qingsong still pays attention to cameras.

Taking the box and opening it, Lin Qingsong couldn't help but exclaim upon seeing the newly released camera inside, "Vivian just released this camera, how did you get your hands on it!"

The camera body alone costs over 50,000 yuan, and what's more, it was only released this month.

Normally, there are no goods available in mainland China.

“I noticed you like photography, so I was thinking of giving you a gift. A friend of mine happened to be visiting Shanghai from Sweden, so I asked her to bring it over.”

When Vivian saw that Lin Qingsong liked her gift, she couldn't help but smile and say, "After all, you've given me several gifts, so I should give you something you like in return."

I glanced at the time and realized there were still more than two hours until midnight.

Lin Qingsong expressed his feelings in the simplest way.

"Vivian, I need to let you know how I feel right now!"

"Really? I'd love to know too!!"

Twelve o'clock.

Downstairs at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

Vivian said in a lazy tone, "Lin, I'll be waiting for you in Paris! I'll take you horseback riding then!"

"Horseback riding isn't the key," Lin Qingsong said with a light laugh, carrying a bag from the hotel. "Riding is the key."

"Hahaha, it seems I'll have to practice my riding skills properly during this time!" Vivian knew what Lin Qingsong was talking about and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh before continuing, "Lin, goodbye then!"

"goodbye!"

After waving to Vivian and watching her get into the car and leave, Lin Qingsong glanced at the blazing sun in the sky, turned around and went back to the hotel front desk to get a room key before taking the elevator to the underground parking lot.

After opening the trunk and placing the camera in the back, Lin Qingsong got into the car.

Sitting in the driver's seat, he pulled up the intelligence from the previous two days.

[Daily News 05 (Blue): At the Confucius Temple used book market, which is open for a limited time this Sunday, stall owner number 87 is having a big sale on his collection of old comic books because of his advanced age. Among them, a set of 70s "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" comic books in perfect condition is a rare find.]

After checking the information, Lin Qingsong took out his phone and searched for the Wenmiao Used Book Market. He found that the market didn't open until 2 PM, so he immediately decided to drive to Zhongshan North Road to get a bowl of beef noodles first.

The noodles there are truly authentic, and the lamb and beef skewers are also fantastic; one meal is never enough.

However, halfway through the drive, he received a call from Qin Lan.

[P.S.: This is the first time I've discovered that you can include images in an article. Now I understand why some people said I didn't include any. I wonder if you guys like this way of adding images?]
