Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: This Top Star Has Real Achievements
Chapter 488 An Unfamiliar Invitation to a Fashion Show
Spending money is great, and spending money is even more great, so Li Xiang simply waved his hand and bought two modified Range Rovers on the spot.
As for the matter of him being a Maserati ambassador and therefore driving that...
This is America, where guns have no eyes, so let's just forget about it.
Durant could barely contain his amusement as he watched Li Xiang generously hand out money.
This order is a large one, both in terms of service fees and the purchase of supporting vehicles, not to mention the publicity value that Li Xiang himself brings.
"Ethan, you can drive the car away now. Leave the rest to me."
"As for the six bodyguards, they usually work in three shifts, but of course, adjustments can be made according to your personal needs."
Li Xiang nodded slightly: "Okay, just notify my lawyer to come and check the contract once it's ready..."
Li Xiang, who left the security company, has undergone a complete transformation.
Xiao Jiang glanced at the two bodyguards in the front row and whispered to Li Xiang in Chinese, "Brother, do you think they speak Chinese?"
"No, I just looked through their files," Li Xiang replied.
Phew, the two people sitting opposite each other finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Despite knowing that he has been active in the United States for a long time, bodyguards are a necessity for Li Xiang now.
But the sudden presence of several tall strangers accompanying me made me feel uneasy.
Even Li Xiang himself, after the initial novelty wore off, began to feel awkward.
However, he had already decided that he wouldn't need these people to accompany him when he returned to China.
After all, no country in the world can compare to China in terms of security.
The thought of having to feed six more mouths starting today brought back his damn sense of crisis.
Before he could even figure out what to do next, someone delivered a surprise.
Upon re-entering Anna's office, I was immediately met with her direct question: "How much do you know about Richard Mille?"
Since they were all on the same side, Li Xiang didn't play games with Anna and directly said what he really thought: "It's ugly."
Upon hearing this, Anna reached for the phone beside her and said calmly, "Then I'll refuse for you."
Unexpectedly, Anna acted so unpredictably. Li Xiang quickly stopped her, saying, "Wait a minute! She hasn't even said what it is!"
"Since even a big star like you says it's ugly, is there any need to talk about what happens next?"
"My fault, my fault! It may be ugly, but it doesn't stop him from making money." Li Xiang immediately moved closer to Anna.
"You really have a hundred tricks up your sleeve."
Seeing that Li Xiang had roughly guessed the reason, Anna was also somewhat helpless. This person was too smart, which was not a good thing.
"RICHARD MILLE contacted VOGUE to inquire whether you were on the cover of this September's issue."
"Are they all spies? They're all so careful, how did the information still leak out?"
"It shouldn't have been a leak from New York," Anna explained slowly.
"As far as I know, the owner of Richard Mille also owns a estate in Connecticut."
"We were filming over there, in a sparsely populated area. Suddenly, an entire film crew rushed over. There were so many people, it was hard not to attract attention."
Li Xiang frowned: "Then they're asking about this...?" Before he could finish speaking, Anna continued on her own.
"Although Richard Mille is very popular, by usual standards, VOGUE itself is not inclined to let him appear in the magazine."
"You should be aware of VOGUE's consistent style. This brand, as you just said, is definitely lacking in terms of style..."
Li Xiang nodded in agreement: "To put it bluntly, it's too high-tech and lacks class. Actually, someone contacted me a while ago, but I didn't respond at the time."
"No wonder, now it makes sense..." Anna also realized that the other party was using a diversionary tactic to relieve the siege of Wei.
"They probably know you've landed the cover of this year's September issue, and given your recent high level of popularity, they're planning to restart negotiations."
"Once the endorsement is finalized, with your status, you can at least get a few pages in this issue of VOGUE."
"What if I don't accept this endorsement?" Li Xiang asked, raising an eyebrow at Anna with a smug grin.
"Without you, it would probably be quite a struggle for them to get on the cover of VOGUE. At least Grace and I don't have a high opinion of the brand's style."
"The choice is yours now. The brand itself has good sales; if it didn't have enough confidence, it wouldn't be actively inquiring about us."
"If you're planning to negotiate, you'd better hurry. We can still reserve one or two pages for you this time. If you wait a few days, you'll have fewer bargaining chips."
Knowing that Anna meant well, Li Xiang tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, while quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
Richard Mille's style is eccentric and unconventional, which he simply cannot appreciate, and it doesn't quite suit his old-money style.
But if the brand offers a high enough endorsement fee, then just pretend they didn't say anything.
He's desperately short of money right now, so it's not shameful for him to be greedy.
What's more, somehow in the following years, this brand actually managed to become an equal to Patek Philippe.
It's not impossible for me to take on an endorsement deal...
Anna saw him pondering for a long time and guessed what he was thinking.
If they really didn't want to accept the offer, they would have said no on the spot, and wouldn't have waited this long.
"Then it's up to you. Like I said, you need to be quick." Anna made the decision immediately.
Li Xiang didn't dwell on it any longer and took the opportunity to back down: "Okay, if we can reach an agreement, we'll give them space; if not, we'll just refuse."
Just as he was about to flatter Anna, his cell phone rang.
He picked up his phone and was slightly taken aback by the name on the screen.
"Whose call was that? Why aren't you answering?"
"Victoria Beckham..."
Anna was taken aback when she heard Li Xiang mention the name.
She knew Li Xiang's social circle in Europe and America very well, and had never heard of any private contact between the two of them. Why would he suddenly call her?
The phone kept vibrating, and Li Xiang couldn't let the ringing continue, so he pressed the answer button.
Hi, Victoria.
Victoria's voice immediately came from the other end of the phone, and even through the phone, Li Xiang could hear the powerful energy in her voice.
"Ethan, I hope I haven't bothered you."
"Of course not, I'm glad to receive your call. Is there something you need?"
"I just saw the news and found out you're in New York, right now at VOGUE headquarters."
"Haha, it must have been some paparazzi who took the photos and released them. That's right, Anna was right next to me."
Hearing that Anna was also there, Victoria's tense tone visibly relaxed a bit, but she still spoke very quickly.
"Here's the thing, I'd like to invite you to watch my personal brand Victoria Beckham's ready-to-wear show during this year's Fashion Week."
"I wonder if you'll still be in New York at that time?"
Li Xiang hadn't expected the other party to call about this, and quickly looked at Anna.
The call was still connected, and Anna, unable to speak, could only nod slightly in acknowledgment.
Seeing her nod, Li Xiang, realizing there wasn't much of a problem, finally agreed, "It's a real honor to receive the invitation. I'll definitely be there that day."
Upon hearing this, the person on the other end of the phone visibly breathed a sigh of relief; Li Xiang could even hear a soft exhale.
"That's wonderful. You're a globally recognized fashion icon, and I really hope you can come to this show."
"I have put a lot of effort into this brand, it is by no means a hobby. If there is anything lacking in the show, I hope you can give me some pointers."
"Haha. Don't worry, I'm known for being outspoken."
