Chapter 157: Conversation in the Conference Room
The first month of the new year in Paris was not as snowy as expected, nor was it as cold as expected.
Lin Xi, who flew here from Seoul, South Korea, was on the way to the hotel with Lin Jun, and saw that the tourists and passers-by on the side of the road were just a simple coat. In some hot spots, even a thin shirt is enough to keep warm. Seeing this, Lin Xi was also a little surprised, took out his mobile phone, and looked at the temperature here.
Lin Jun, who was sitting next to him, also smiled when he saw Lin Xi's situation, "The temperature here in Paris is quite warm, which makes you a little surprised." ”
"Well, I don't know much about it when I'm studying in school or watching movies, because most of the people in Europe are very cold or snowy. No wonder Brother Jun told me not to take so many clothes, it seems that you already knew. Lin Xi nodded, not denying that he had very little knowledge, and he didn't feel anything ashamed.
"If I haven't known the weather after living here for so many years, then I'm really living in vain. Lin Jun smiled lightly, then thought of something, and continued, "That's right, Xiaoxi." This time, I can only accompany you here for a few days, and then I will have to go back to Seoul to deal with work. When the time comes, you'll be left alone here, and you should be able to handle it. ”
Lin Xi had also expected such a situation, so he was not very surprised, but nodded his head, "Well, Brother Jun, don't worry, I can handle it myself." Besides, if you want to really stand on this land, you must first have your own confidence and strength. Otherwise, you will always rely on your protection and light to survive, Brother Jun, and this situation will not last for a long time. Happiness and confidence can only be fought for by myself in the end, so that I can live my wonderful life. ”
Lin Xi's words made Lin Jun's eyes light up again and again. In the end, he smiled proudly and contentedly, "I'm very happy that you can think like this." But I'll still have to take you to meet some people, so you'll have to be prepared these days. From tonight onwards, until the day I go back, we will probably have to spend time at drinks and socials. Although I know you don't really like this kind of socializing. But for the sake of the future, you still have to deal with it. ”
"OK, I understand. With a gesture, Lin Xi smiled faintly.
The car arrived at the hotel very quickly. After taking the room key, the two of them simply packed their luggage and groomed, and then went straight to Louis Vuitton's headquarters.
Slowly stepping into the building of the headquarters, Lin Jun took Lin Xi and went directly to the design department. After getting there, Lin Xi was arranged by Lin Jun to sit down in a lounge. Then he left. 10 A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door of the lounge, and Lin Xi was called into a nearby conference room by a secretary assistant.
Looking at this door, Lin Xi knew that he would see the situation of Jackie Chan in the future. Taking a deep breath, under the smiling gaze of the beautiful secretary next to him, Lin Xi gently pushed open the door of the conference room.
The door opened, and after walking in, Lin Xi saw Lin Jun sitting on the right hand side for the first time, his smile was very bright and warm, as if such a smile passed on to Lin Xi a lot of confidence, and also calmed Lin Xi's somewhat nervous and slightly trembling body.
Eyes gently averted. After scanning the conference room slightly, Lin Xi found that there were only 4 people sitting here. One is Lin Jun, on his right-hand side, one is a middle-aged uncle with gray hair, and the other is a fashionably dressed royal sister. The last one is also the only one Lin Xi knows besides Lin Jun. It is also a figure that Lin Xi has only seen in magazines or news, with a somewhat gray beard and a neat black handmade suit. That man was none other than Marc Jacobs, the former chief designer and creative director of Louis Vuitton. He is also one of those people who stand at the top of the pyramid of the fashion circle.
Seeing this figure, the pupils in Lin Xi's eyes couldn't help but shrink. Is it because of his own situation that such a big man is sitting here? Lin Xi doesn't believe that he has such a great ability to make this great god pay attention to him. Such thoughts. After Lin Xi saw Mark Jacobs, it instantly appeared in his mind. Then in the next second, Lin Xi's eyes looked at his eldest brother Lin Jun. If you insist on why Mark Jacobs is sitting here, the only thing that can explain it is Lin Jun.
Just as Lin Xi was observing the people in the conference room, the three people sitting there had also been observing Lin Xi. When they looked at Lin Xi's somewhat bright eyes looking around, they didn't feel anything rude, but looked at it with interest. After seeing Lin Xi finally glance at Mark Jacobs and Lin Jun, they also laughed one after another.
In the end, maybe I didn't want to delay any longer, so the middle-aged uncle sitting in the middle spoke, "Hello, Mr. Lin Xi, I'm Maal, and I'm the planning director of the fashion clothing side of LOUISVUITTON (Louis Vuitton), and next to this is the secretary assistant to the creative director of our company, Miss Chloe." Finally, I don't think you don't know Mark. ”
As a designer and staff member of Louis Vuitton, although Lin Xi is not an employee of the headquarters, Lin Jun has also told him several times about some small high-level executives.
So when he heard the middle-aged uncle's words, Lin Xi also hurriedly introduced himself, "Director Mael, Miss Chloe, hello, I am Lin Xi from China, of course, you can also call me by my English name, Leon." As for Mr. Mark Jacobs, of course I have to know. ”
"Hehe, this name can't have anything to do with Leon. The beautiful secretary Chloe also laughed very charmingly after hearing Lin Xi's explanation.
"I'm sorry, but I really came up with this English name after watching "This Killer Is Not Too Cold", after all, Leon is so handsome. In other words, I also wish I could have a goddess like Matilda to live by. Although he was still very nervous, Lin Xi was still able to chat with Chloe opposite very accurately and confidently.
While Lin Xi and Chloe were chatting, the other three didn't interject, but put on a smile and watched the two of them chatting on the movie with a smile. It wasn't until a few minutes later that Maal interrupted Lin Xi and Chloe's chat, and then formally looked at Lin Xi and asked, "Okay, Leon, everyone knows the purpose and goal of your coming here." Now I'm not going to beat around the bush, you just need to answer me one question. ”
"Absolutely. Maybe it was because of the chat with Chloe just now that Lin Xi gradually relaxed, so after hearing Mael's question, he also smiled very naturally.
Seeing his younger brother talking in the middle of the conference room, Lin Jun, who was sitting next to him, was also smiling proudly.
"It's a very simple question, I just want to ask you, do you have the confidence to complete the design of your series and get better and better?" Mael, who has lived in Europe for a long time, is also very straightforward in dealing with problems and asking questions, if it weren't for Lin Jun's relationship, maybe Chloe wouldn't have given Lin Xi a little buffer time just now.
"Director Ma'er, I think the design I gave to the company before and the young me standing in front of you can answer your question perfectly, isn't it?" After listening to Ma'er's question, Lin Xi not only was not modest, but stood up very confidently, looked directly at Ma'er's gaze, and replied with a straight face.
Looking at that confident figure, Ma'er also stared at Lin Xi for a few minutes, and nodded under Lin Xi's still indifferent smile, "That's right, I see your potential and self-confidence, congratulations!!"
As soon as this sentence came out, Lin Jun and Mark Jacobs, who was sitting opposite him, glanced at each other very tacitly, and then showed a smile at the same time. (To be continued.) )
