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

Chapter 186 The Most Famous Haute Couture Gown of the 90s [5k-page Chapter]

Ten seven.

After opening the Alipay hourly red envelope interface, Lin Qingsong looked at the countdown on the system.

At 10:08:36, I successfully snagged 100 yuan from Alipay.

Not long after he grabbed the red envelope, he received a call from Qi Nan.

"Old Lin, I've already signed the contract with Givenchy! Eva's show in September is confirmed!"

Hearing Qi Nan's slightly excited voice on the other end of the phone, Lin Qingsong's emotions didn't fluctuate as much.

If the system information is stamped and certified, then there are definitely no problems.

"Seventh Brother, now that it's settled over there, that's good. Also, Marie Claire notified you when the shoot will take place, why haven't you told Crew Head the time yet?"

Qi Nan didn't call him, and he couldn't remember her for a moment.

Marie Claire is scheduled to shoot this month, but Qi Nan still hasn't told Cun Tou the time and place.

He also promised Tian Xiwei that he would take her to the Marie Claire photoshoot location and post an update about it.

We also need to check the time with her in advance.

"We'll be filming next Monday, since they're going to release the trailer on their official website on the 4th of next month." Qi Nan said, a hint of doubt in his voice, "Old Lin, are you going to the set? I thought I could just bring my buzz cut."

A company's boss and models both appeared on the cover of Marie Claire magazine, one on the Hong Kong edition and the other on the mainland edition.

Normally, fashion magazines like Marie Claire shoot two months in advance, release a preview one month in advance, and publish the issue in the same month.

In other words, the cover shoot Qi Nan did this month was actually for the October issue of Marie Claire Hong Kong.

But the magazine will reveal the cover in September, and then it will be officially published on the 9th of each month.

Of course, the publication dates of each magazine are different, but the general promotional methods are the same.

“I will go. I’m also planning to bring a friend along. Seventh Brother, could you help me take a picture with her and have her post it on social media?” Lin Qingsong said, glancing at Tian Xiwei, who was taking a picture with a buzz cut.

If you want to ride the wave of a trending topic, you still need to generate some buzz beforehand.

For example, today Tian Xiwei is planning to take some photos of herself and her crew-cut friend going out and post them online.

That way, when the buzz cut appears in Marie Claire's magazine in October, she can naturally repost Marie Claire's post and congratulate the buzz cut.

The same reason.

After returning to Shanghai, he planned to have Qi Nan and Tian Xiwei take a photo together and then post it on social media.

This really generates a lot of buzz.

of course.

In Lin Qingsong's opinion, neither Qi Nan nor the crew-cut man suffered a loss.

Once Tian Xiwei's TV series becomes popular in November, the two of them can also ride on Tian Xiwei's popularity.

Even after Tian Xiwei went to shoot for a fashion magazine, he could accompany her as a friend.

I wonder if we can interact on Weibo later and ride the wave of popularity.

The best reward would be simply to appear before the editors-in-chief of these fashion magazines under a legitimate name and have a brief chat.

After all, most models don't even get to chat with the editors of these fashion magazines, let alone have many opportunities to appear on screen.

We can chat now.

Wouldn't that greatly increase the chances of being featured in a magazine in the future?

In Lin Qingsong's view, whether it's the entertainment industry, the fashion industry, or the modeling industry...

Ultimately, it all comes down to communication between people; after all, only when there are many people can a circle be formed.

Therefore, he doesn't like to use the word "venture" to describe developing in the industry, such as "venturing into the entertainment industry" or "bravely venturing into the fashion industry."

When people hear the word "闯" (chuǎng), they usually think of the word "闯关" (chuǎnguān).

If you use the word "break through," doesn't that mean you're inherently putting yourself in the opposite direction of others, becoming the BOSS to be beaten by them?

Just hearing that gives you a feeling of dissatisfaction and resentment.

That's just making things harder for yourself.

His favorite word is "mix" or "hatch," for example, "mixing in the entertainment industry" or "mixing in the modeling industry."

One of the dictionary definitions of the word "混" is to work and interact with others.

How comforting that sounds! It puts you and others on the same side.

good for everyone.

They chat casually, boast a little, get together to praise each other, and give each other face.

That should solve the problem.

Although Lin Qingsong possesses a system, he has the initial ability to overturn the table.

But he still doesn't want to change his long-standing style of doing things.

After all, it's too tiring to pretend and then get slapped in the face. He just wants to pretend, pretend, pretend, and put all his confidence on the surface.

Since we're all in the entertainment and fashion industry, just say what your background and connections are. Don't hide anything.

Wouldn't that be a win-win situation for everyone?

On the other end of the phone, Qi Nan didn't ask too many questions and readily agreed before handing the item to Eva, who was equally excited.

Eva thanked her first, then took the phone and said incredulously, "Lin, you know what? This is all so unbelievable! I feel like I'm dreaming since yesterday!"

She never imagined that she could walk the Givenchy show at New York Fashion Week without having done anything.

No matter how calm she was, she couldn't keep up when faced with this huge windfall.

After offering a few words of reassurance, Lin Qingsong hung up the phone.

"This is just the beginning, you'll definitely get better and better from here on out!" Although he still had a few days before becoming the company's boss, Lin Qingsong was becoming more and more adept at making grand promises.

However, it's not exactly empty talk.

After all, he's going to the Women's Leadership Forum on the 2nd of next month to meet with Harper's Bazaar editor-in-chief Sha Xiaoli, hoping to give Eva another push and get her featured in the October issue of Harper's Bazaar.

Now that Eva is confirmed to walk in Givenchy's show at New York Fashion Week, her chances of success are certainly not small.

Even if she doesn't agree this time, once Qi Nan and the crew-cut man appear on the Marie Claire pageant, Sha Xiaoli will still include Eva in her shortlist.

After all, magazines need to use some supermodels to enhance their own prestige.

Qi Nan, with his buzz cut and Eva's style, even if she's not a supermodel, this series of moves makes her a potential supermodel.

After Eva finished eating the flatbread, Lin Qingsong hung up the phone.

From this moment on, all he wants to do is enjoy his vacation.

However, when he looked up, he saw that the crew-cut man, Eva, and Xiang Jia were all looking at him with surprise.

"Lin, you just said that Eva is going to walk in Givenchy's show at New York Fashion Week???" The crew-cut man looked at Lin Qingsong in disbelief.

She was filming with Tian Xiwei when she heard such explosive news halfway through the shoot.

"Yes, the contract was signed today." After saying that, Lin Qingsong quickly raised both hands and made a pause gesture. "Stop! We're out having fun today, so let's not discuss work! We'll talk about it when we get back tomorrow!"

Eva remained silent, simply looking at Lin Qingsong.

She was quite content. As a newcomer model who had just debuted, it was already quite an achievement to participate in a beauty pageant and win a place.

As for magazines, fashion weeks, and luxury brands, none of them have much to do with her.

Even now, if you asked her to walk the runway for a luxury brand at Fashion Week, she would probably feel a bit stage-frightened.

The crew-cut man realized that he was about to shoot the inside pages of a top-tier Chinese women's magazine, so there was no need to envy others.

Also.

If Eva can walk the runway for luxury brands at New York Fashion Week, then she can too!
She believed that she was no worse than anyone else.

Lin Qingsong set the tone for today's event.

Everyone had a great time all day and took lots of photos.

There are group photos on Route 66, various versions of Zixia Fairy, happy faces eating hot pot in the desert, and stars in the sky.

That evening, at Lin Qingsong's suggestion, Eva also opened a Weibo account and received a gold V certification.

Although the Miss Sailing competition is somewhat illegitimate, it is still a legitimate competition recognized by the Sanya government, and there are many press releases about it online.

As the runner-up in the competition, it's perfectly normal for him to receive Weibo's gold V certification.

As for Xiang Jia, she doesn't like to be in the limelight. Although there have been photos taken together, neither the crew-cut Aiwa nor Tian Xiwei posted her photos.

That night.

Lin Qingsong thus fulfilled what Eva had said earlier and enjoyed the treatment of an emperor.

At the same time, his performance made Tian Xiwei even more certain of her idea that she could not fight alone.

Four people were almost no match for Lin Qingsong, so if she were alone, wouldn't she be finished?

And she also understood how much pity Lin Qingsong had shown her the past two days.

"Old Lin, aren't Eva and Crew Head in pain?"

"It's okay, Russian girls like it this way."

"Doesn't Jia Jie feel pain either?"

"It's okay, you'll understand later."

"Okay, I always thought that the online claim about standing up and stepping on someone was an exaggeration."

"Okay, don't get distracted while you're working."

"."

August 26th, Sunday.

5:30 PM. Pudong Airport underground parking lot.

"Qingsong, I might not have time to spend with you tonight. Xiaohai will be starting school in a few days, and I want to spend more time with him before school starts, and also practice feeding him by himself."

Xiang Jia looked at Lin Qingsong with a face full of apology.

"It's alright, Sister Jia. You should spend some time with Xiao Hai for now." Lin Qingsong expressed his understanding, adding that he would also be a little busy next month.

I won't say anything at the end of this month.

I had to accompany Tian Xiwei to Jiaren to ride on the coattails of the buzz cut and Qi Nan's popularity.

Afterwards, she will go fishing with Shen Xingyu's mother.

Next month, he will not only need to complete the procedures for investing in Shining International.

At the same time, his national model studio was also established, and he also planned to go to Duan Zhizhi's alma mater to recruit some models.

At the same time, Shen Xingyu and Shen Xingyu also need to go to the Women's Leadership Forum to meet Sha Xiaoli, the editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar.

Also, we need to sign that mixed-race skater, Ruhr, as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if Balenciaga's Asia-Pacific director, Du Yi, contacts him, it will be difficult to sign a contract.

Then, around the middle of the month, I'll be going to New York Fashion Week with Eva.

Although none of them were particularly busy or urgent, he still had to do them in the end.

And these are just things that happen during the day; he'll probably be even more overworked at night.

Xiang Jia glanced at Eva and the others who were about to get into the car, and said to Lin Qingsong with a smile, "Qingsong, when you have time to come to my place, let's swap this Mercedes for my car. I think this car is a bit too small now."

Her Mercedes model is a G500, which is an extended version of the G-Class and has seven seats.

At first, Lin Qingsong felt that it would be too flashy for him to open a car, so he refused.

But now he thinks it's just right, not flashy at all.

Therefore, he did not refuse this time, but nodded and said, "Okay, Sister Jia, I will find time to come to your place and drive the G-Wagon away."

"I'll be going now. Qingsong, please be careful on your way."

Wait until Xiang Jia drives away.

Lin Qingsong then smiled and looked at Tian Xiwei, saying, "Xiao Tian, ​​filming starts tomorrow. Why don't you stay home? We can go back together then."

Although she was a little tired, Tian Xiwei, who had already gotten a taste for it, nodded without hesitation.

Lin Qingsong didn't ask about the crew-cut man and Eva.

Don't ask about these two people.

100% of them went back with me.

After getting in the car.

He didn't drive anywhere else.

We drove directly to COFCO No. 1.

Qin Lan's words of gratitude truly resonated with her.

If it weren't for this large penthouse in COFCO No. 1, I would definitely have had to drive to the hotel later.

But with this house, I can save 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month on hotel expenses alone.

Lin Qingsong had previously done some calculations himself.

He can stay in a hotel for 20 out of 30 days a month.

Thanks to this efficiency, the number of room cards collected has actually increased.

COFCO No. 1 Grand Flat.

As the door opens.

Tian Xiwei looked at the interior decoration with envy, "Old Lin, when will I be able to afford a house like this?"

"Think about how long Qin Lan has been in the entertainment industry, and then think about how long you've only been in it?" Lin Qingsong opened the refrigerator, took out a few cans of cola, and tossed them to them one by one.

He then opened a can, took a sip, and felt the carbon dioxide explode in his throat before continuing, "Besides, even if you can't afford it, you can still live here now, can't you?"

"Hehe, that's true." Tian Xiwei just sighed and didn't dwell on it too much. She opened a can of Coke and took a sip. "But the only bad thing about this place is that the floor-to-ceiling windows are hard to open, so it feels stuffy."

Like most people in Sichuan Province, she likes to open the windows for fresh air, no matter how high up the building or what the weather is like outside.

If the windows aren't open, the room feels too stuffy.

"What are you guys planning to eat later? I'll order takeout." Lin Qingsong finished his cola and casually threw the can into the trash can.

You should eat a full meal before doing anything.

He who eats another's food is bound to do so.

He's the kind of person who likes things to be gentle.

The meal lasted until 3 a.m.

Because we're shooting the buzz cut tomorrow, and we're one person short.

Although Tian Xiwei surrendered quickly, the girl recovered quickly, and after Eva fell asleep, she regained some of her energy.

Unfortunately, the gauntlet-style attack was of no use to Lin Qingsong.

It's past four o'clock.

All three women were paralyzed in bed.

Lin Qingsong walked to the bathtub that had been filled with water beforehand, stepped in, and soaked comfortably.

This is the right rhythm.

You need a bath to get a good night's sleep.

While soaking in the water, he casually picked up the coconut water that had been placed aside, took a sip, and then opened the system to check today's intelligence.

[Daily News 01 (Pink): At the Dong Hwa University flea market during the September 1st start-of-term semester, stall number 76 will be selling secondhand clothes sourced from various places. Among them is a sample of a 90s overrun runway Thierry Mugler motorcycle jacket. (Price: NT$50,000) (Can be consigned to Han Mengxue at if vintage store for sale)]

???

What?
Thierry Muller?
What brand is this clothing? Why is it so expensive?
Lin Qingsong was a little stunned when he saw this information.

He only realized after checking online that this brand was indeed something special.

Thierry Muller is both the brand name and the designer's name.

It also has a high-end product line.

It belongs to the category of haute couture brands that are not well-known to ordinary people, but have a certain reputation in the fashion and haute couture circles.

Most importantly, this designer passed away this year!

In other words, this garment is an absolute masterpiece!
Although saying this might sound like profiting from tragedy, it applies to any industry.

It's always the case that a person's work becomes incredibly valuable after they pass away.

For example, the film and television industry, the art industry, are not as good as the fashion industry.
In particular, this designer also designed a haute couture dress that is hailed as "the most famous dress of the 1990s".

In addition, the Mecha Girl and Insect series of haute couture designs created around the same time as this motorcycle jacket are still regarded as milestones in fashion history.

With these conditions in place, even though this motorcycle jacket isn't haute couture, it's still a show piece designed by Thierry Muller and can still fetch a high price.

However, Lin Qingsong did not intend to sell the clothes.

These rare, limited-edition clothes are the best gift for designers; they're far more effective at building relationships than anything else.

After setting a time reminder for the intelligence report, he then looked at the intelligence report below.

[Daily Intelligence 02: After learning that Lin Qingsong was going to New York Fashion Week in the middle of the month, Vivian practiced horseback riding while looking for suitable models.]

Uh.

This is the right model.

Something looks off.
Vivian, you should be looking for some models who are suitable to sign with me.

probably?

It couldn't possibly be about finding a surprise gift for yourself, could it?

[Daily News 03: Lisa learns from Vivian that Lin Qingsong is preparing to come to New York Fashion Week and has begun looking for suitable models.]

???

Upon seeing this news, Lin Qingsong was completely stunned.

OK OK.

How did you guys manage to meet up?
However, seeing these two pieces of information, Lin Qingsong still had some expectations.

After all, most of the models he likes walk in commercial shows like Victoria's Secret.

Victoria's Secret's home base is the United States.

It would be fantastic if the two of them could find some models who have walked the Victoria's Secret runway!

Unfortunately, Victoria's Secret announced its discontinuation in 19.

Otherwise, he would have insisted on going to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in November.

At this moment, Lin Qingsong felt as if he had been born before Lin Qingsong was born, and Lin Qingsong had been born after Lin Qingsong was old.

He couldn't attend the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show before it was discontinued.

Now that I have the ability to go, Victoria's Secret has been discontinued.

Hopefully, Victoria's Secret will return soon.
