Chapter 284: A Lobbyist
For breakfast the next day, after having breakfast with Lin Jun, Lin Xi set off with him to go to the company. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The main reason is that Lin Jun called him the day before yesterday, which made him always curious about what kind of document it was.
However, when Lin Xi sat across Lin Jun's desk and read the document in his hand. The expression on his face didn't know whether to laugh or be silent. Quietly covered the document back and pushed it to the side, "Brother Jun, this is our luxury brand flagship store." Why did this invitation document come over, and besides, the company is not without other designers, why me. ”
"You ask me? I still want to ask you, I thought it was because you met someone outside, or something happened, that people sent invitations. Otherwise, I threw it away at the first sight, and would I still call you to ask you?" Lin Jun, who was drinking coffee, glanced at Lin Xi with contempt and said softly.
Spread his hands, Lin Xi, who continued to look down at the document, was also confused, "Don't ask me, I'm also strange now." ”
"Then refuse it, it's not a big deal anyway. By the way, I heard you say a little bit not long ago, and you have an idea for the next step of design, what is it now? After listening to Lin Xi's answer, Lin Jun no longer paid attention to the situation. Instead, he put the question on the things he cared more about, and his eyes looked at Lin Xi a little seriously.
"Touched the edge. Scratching his head, Lin Xi replied with some embarrassment. In the face of his eldest brother's expectations, he has not been able to make a breakthrough and result for a long time, and he is indeed a little blushing.
Seeing Lin Xi's appearance, Lin Jun was from the past, so he naturally understood his thoughts. So he also smiled and comforted, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's good to already have an idea." Compared with those in the company who only know how to follow the trend, or eat the old book, you are already much better. ”
Lin Xi also knew some of the inside information of the company in South Korea, and when he saw Lin Jun's helplessness when he said this, he didn't say anything, but secretly cheered in his heart. I don't think so, I just hope that my brother's waist can stand up a little.
It's just that suddenly, Lin Xi thought of the words that Chloe said to him when he was at the Paris headquarters. So he stared at Lin Jun, and only after seeing that he was a little hairy did he ask, "That's right, Brother Jun." I heard Chloe say, you're going to throw me at the headquarters in Paris, what the hell is going on?"
"Oh, that's what you said. That's right, that guy Nicholas mentioned it to me, but I refused. You're still too young now, and although your ideas are good, you're not at that level yet, and you can't get on the runway over there. If I let you go now, I'm just a better designer over there. Speaking of this, Lin Jun's eyes when he looked at Lin Xi also became very expectant, "Wait, wait until you are more mature and can take charge on your own, and then go over there." When the time comes, you'll be able to get on the runway over there, not like last time. I don't think you want to rely on me or Mark all the time. ”
After listening to Lin Jun's words that he thought about himself to the extreme, Lin Xi was naturally moved, but he didn't show it on his face. is also deeply immersed in the bottom of my heart, and my gratitude to my brother is even stronger.
Then he nodded heavily and replied seriously, "Well, Brother Jun, don't worry." One day, I'll be on the runway in Paris. When the time comes, you and Mark will sit down and enjoy the feast I have brought. "I don't need to trouble you to escort me anymore. The last sentence, Lin Xi shouted out loudly in his heart.
"Haha, don't get so excited. Mark and I, though not very good, can still help you along the way. After Lin Jun saw Lin Xi's fiery gaze, he also laughed very happily. After speaking, he took out a bill from the side and handed it to Lin Xi, "By the way, this is a few small gifts from the last time you bothered me to help you find a craftsman." The bill is here, and yesterday the man said it had been done. You see when you're free, go get it back yourself. ”
Lin Xi, who took it, glanced at the words on it, and was a little surprised, "So fast, 8 copies." ”
"Do you think that like the last time you asked the big boss of the family to make a move, there are also craftsmen under them. Regarding Lin Xi's answer, Lin Jun was also drunk. However, he looked at him curiously and said with a smile, "However, what is the situation with these gifts of yours, are they for Taeyeon? ”
"No, it was her members who asked. Anyway, I didn't have much to do, so I helped design a few bracelets. Lin Xi played with the bill in his hand and smiled.
"You guy, whatever you want. Okay, I'm going to work too, if you have anything, you can do it yourself, it's okay to get in the way in front of me, get out of here. With a laugh and scolding, Lin Jun directly gave the order to expel the bastard in front of him.
Regarding this situation, Lin Xi also smiled and exchanged words with him, and then got up and left the office. As for where to go, Lin Xi looked at the bill in his hand. I went to get these things first, and then yesterday Kim Taeyeon said that Li Ran, while I was free, let's do it together.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi also smiled and said hello to Yin Youli next to him, and then left the company. And there was an intern girl sitting next to Yin Youli who watched Lin Xi's departure, and asked curiously, "Ernie, who is this man?" Why haven't I seen him for so long, it seems that he is quite familiar with the director. ”
"Well, he's the director's younger brother. It can be regarded as a powerful designer in our flagship store, and the few non-sale fashions in the window you liked last time were written by him. Yin Youli, who was very familiar with Lin Xi, laughed and explained a few words to her after hearing her little assistant's question.
Then, after the little intern assistant heard this. Those eyes looked at Lin Xi's departing back, and they also became worshipful. All of this is not something that Lin Xi can know.
After leaving the company, Lin Xi thought about it and called Kim Taeyeon first. After asking where she was and some information about their company, she hung up the phone. Then I found out the number of Li Ran who didn't know when it was saved in the address book of my mobile phone, and dialed it.
S&M Company, Office Manager's Office.
At this time, Li Ran was drinking tea while processing this document. He also heard about Kim Tae-yeon's appearance at the company this morning. So now, his eyes occasionally glance at his mobile phone next to him. A little distressed, and a little helpless muttered, "Well, it's been two or three days, although there is no urging over there, but I think it should be quite urgent." ”
Speaking of this, Li Ran also frowned slightly, picked up the pen in his hand and played lightly.
Just then, the cell phone next to it rang. Looking sideways, Li Ran finally smiled after seeing the name of the caller. Pick up the answer and say, "Hey." ”
Next to Babos's trot, Lin Xi stood there looking at the pedestrians on the side of the road, listening to the voice in his ear, "Hey, Director Li?"
"Well, Lin Xi, I just wanted to call you, but I didn't expect you to call. Li Ran also leaned back in his chair at this time, and his free left hand gently tapped the desk table, and a dull percussion sounded rhythmically in this small office.
"How dare you bother you, Director Li, you scared Tiffany and them yesterday. I won't look for you today, I guess next time you'll go straight to Taeyeon. After knowing that Li Ran and the others had understood their relationship with Kim Taeyeon, Lin Xi was not ambiguous, and directly made his words clear.
For this somewhat prickly answer, Li Ran was also a little helpless. But thinking about what I did yesterday, it was indeed a little inhumane, so I took it, "Yesterday's situation was a little special, and it was indeed a little inconsiderate. ”
"Okay, Director Li, you are also a busy person, there must be something wrong with finding me in this way. Let's not beat around the bush, you see whether it's on the phone or face-to-face, I can do it. "I've chased other people's idols, and if I don't give some face, it is estimated that I will be tripped up by then, and it will be enough for Lin Xi to eat a pot. So after saying a few words with a prickly voice, Lin Xi also took a step back and no longer ignored the information Li Ran gave yesterday.
"Let's talk to each other in person, it's not clear on the phone. For Lin Xi's approach, Li Ran naturally felt comfortable. So I didn't pay attention to anything anymore, and went down the stairs to set the time and place of the meeting. After hanging up the phone, he looked at the time, lowered his head and continued to process the documents in his hand, this time the mood was much more relaxed, and it was much more comfortable to read the documents.
And after Lin Xi finished talking to Li Ran on the phone, he also got in the car and set off towards the location of the bill.
Half an hour later, when Lin Xi walked out of a room, he already had an extra bag in his hand. Looking at the bag and thinking about the situation of the gifts he had just seen, Lin Xi also smiled with satisfaction, "Such gifts, Tiffany and the others can't say anything more." ”
Lin Xi, who was smiling, sat back in the car again, then put the bag in the back seat, glanced at the time, and drove towards the location of a coffee shop that he had made an appointment with Li Ran before. At the same time, at the parking lot of S&M Company, Li Ran also walked out of the company and was about to drive to the appointment. It's just that here I met Kim Taeyeon, who was just going out to buy food with Sunny, so I smiled and said hello before leaving.
Looking at the departing car, Sunny shook his somewhat chilled body and hugged Kim Taeyeon's arm, "Taeyeon, did you see what happened just now?" ”
Kim Taeyeon raised her head and greeted the sunlight refracted from the company glass, her face bright, "I saw it." At the same time, he was also muttering in his heart, it must be because of Lin Xi's situation, because Lin Xi had just finished talking to her on the phone.
Thinking of this, Kim Taeyeon pouted happily while worrying. His boyfriend is so powerful that even Director Li has to ask him for help. Tsundere's little mood slowly covered the worry, and then took Sunny's little hand and bounced all the way to buy food with a smile.
10 A few minutes later, Lin Xi could be regarded as the first to come to the coffee house in Ap Outing, so he walked in and simply found a place to sit down and order a cup of coffee, waiting for Li Ran's arrival.
A few minutes later, Li Ran's hurried figure walked into the coffee house. At a glance, I saw Lin Xi sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, so he also walked straight over, "I'm sorry, there is a bit of traffic jam on the road, it's late." ”
"It's okay, what do you want to drink?" Lin Xi didn't care too much about this situation, just called the waiter and gave Li Ran a menu.
"Just bring me a cup of Americano. Li Ran glanced at it and ordered a cup of coffee casually.
After the waiter left, Lin Xi looked at Li Ran with a smile, "I don't know what happened to Director Li who was in such a hurry to find me." It won't really be like you said, because I kidnapped your idol to travel, and you want to settle accounts with me. ”
"No, Taeyeon doesn't have an itinerary or activities these days, and it's up to her how to arrange the time. Our company is not so ****, and she still has her own personal space for artists like Taeyeon. Li Ran is really very skillful in speaking, and a sentence of personal space dragged Lin Xi's question over.
It's just that Lin Xi also noticed the difference in his words, according to what he said. If it's not a popular idol artist like your own girlfriend, it's estimated that the term freedom or personal space is just a joke. Thinking of this, Lin Xi was also a little more disgusted with the rules of this circle, but he didn't show it.
"Then I don't know what Director Li is looking for me for. Shaking off the impatience of his heart, Lin Xi continued to chat with Li Ran.
And Li Ran, who has already said hello to Lin Xi a few times, also knows a little bit about his character, so this time he also went straight to the point, "Actually, it's not a big deal, have the four major fashion weeks in Paris, New York, London, and Milan been held one after another? ”
Hearing this, Lin Xi's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and stunned, what kind of situation is this.
"I don't know how the director of the variety show department on the TV station and the PD of the show know about Taeyeon or our company's cooperation with you, anyway, I just want to let you participate in this program recording through my side. It's as simple as that, you see, if it doesn't matter, do you want to play on the show. ”
After speaking, Li Ran looked at Lin Xi's eyes and looked forward to it. Because in addition to this reason, SBS TV promised some benefits to its company, which is also a lot. Otherwise, he would not be too lazy to do this kind of intermediary thing that is a bit troublesome and easy to offend people.
Lin Xi was not stupid, he figured out the situation in a turn of his mind, so he also laughed, and then looked directly at Li Ran, "I don't know what kind of benefits your company got from taking over the job of this lobbyist?" )
