Chapter XXVII

Victoria's Secret catwalk performance at New York Fashion Week received unanimous acclaim, and Frida Giannina's novel design not only won praise from fashion editors, but also attracted great interest from buyers from all walks of life.

Victoria's Secret CEO Mark Lee also told reporters at the after-show party that Victoria's Secret is considering entering the European market represented by the United Kingdom after Canada.

Two years after the introduction of the euro, a continental union is on the rise, and the 12 countries of the eurozone today are undoubtedly a huge market comparable to North America.

At the same time, Mark Lee told reporters that after entering the new millennium, both Europe and developing countries represented by the BRIC countries are ushering in a period of rapid development.

With the development of these fast-growing market countries, their female customers are bound to grow rapidly, and these emerging markets with unlimited business opportunities are exactly the markets that Victoria's Secret expects to enter.

After Mark Lee's speech at New York Fashion Week, Victoria's Secret stock was quickly stimulated and rose, which just shows that investors recognize and are optimistic about Victoria's Secret's new senior management and new strategy.

————————————————————

While Victoria's Secret was methodically advancing its strategy, Sid, who was far away in Los Angeles, was also leading the crew of "Spider-Man" in intense preparations.

The main character, Tobey Maguire, is also training in hell under the guidance of a fitness and strength coach.

"That's all for the New York side of the live action shoot, and the most important thing now is to get permission from the New York City government as soon as possible, which is your first priority when you fly to New York. Sid patted the information book of the live action shoot that had just been explained at the meeting, which was plastered with photos and text materials of the real scene of New York that needed to be taken.

"Okay, Boss, I got it. Kevin Feige, who served as the producer, nodded in agreement.

"In addition, I've contacted Wells Fargo and American Express for Black and Gold cards, and their New York managers will contact you and help you get permission to shoot with the city government or some street buildings, and you'll be in charge of the terms of the filming. Sid had clearly prepared, and Kevin Feige nodded in understanding.

Although the Fire Lion Group has acquired East Coast and foreign companies such as Jive Records and Viking Records, their roots are still on the West Coast, mainly in California, so this time they had to shoot in New York, and Sid knew that Fire Lion alone would not be enough.

So just like when he filmed "Harry Potter" in the UK last year, Sid once again asked Wells Fargo that only a multinational commercial bank like them, with its extensive connections and deep influence, could win many applications for New York audition locations in a short period of time.

At the end of this meeting, "Buzz-" Sid's mobile phone suddenly vibrate, he picked it up and looked at it, his eyebrows couldn't help but pick, and then Sid looked at Kevin Feige and the others: "Well, then let's go here for today's meeting first." ”

As soon as the others looked at it, they knew that Sid was going to answer the phone alone, and everyone in the production team got up and left the conference room, and after a while, Sid was the only one left in the conference room.

He looked at the mobile phone that was still "buzzing" and ringing, and couldn't help but glance at the corner of his mouth to open the phone: "Hey, it's me." What's the matter?"

"Well, he did. Sid couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face when he heard the words from the other side, but this smile looked more like a mockery, "What I wanted before that?"

Hearing Sid's question, the other side couldn't help but say a few words in a row, Sid nodded: "Very good, I'll deal with the rest." ”

After a phone call, Sid put down his phone, then let out a long breath and smiled, "That guy is really not worrying." ”

Then he walked out of the conference room and said to the assistant who was waiting outside, "Call the driver, we're going to San Francisco." ”

"Old, San Francisco!?" the assistant looked at Sid dumbfounded, "But, today's set check for the studio?"

"It's good to call Justin Lin for me, there is something unexpected that needs to be dealt with, and besides, tell Justin (Lin) that if I come back and find that what he did displeased me, just wait to be punished. Sid grinned and said terrible things, so that the assistant didn't know if Sid was joking or serious.

In the end, they decided to tell the truth, and just as Sid and the others were on a short-haul flight to San Francisco, somewhere in the Sony studio, a miserable scream was heard: "Ahhhh——!!!h

——————————————————

At Apple's headquarters in Silicon Valley, top designers affiliated with a certain codename "X" are in full swing on an important product that will be launched in the second half of the year.

In fact, by this time, samples of the products have already been produced from overseas outsourcing factories.

"I want it to be a little thinner, at least 3 millimeters thinner. Jobs said as he played with the rectangular prototype in his hand, only to see that it was a small machine with a white front and a silver back.

"In this case, we have to start with the battery, and the microhard drive itself has no room for compression. Chief Design Officer Jonathan Yves said, scratching his forehead.

"Well, that'......," Jobs was about to say.

"Whew-h

With the exception of a few executives, such as him and Jonathan Yves, the rest of the general staff has access to parts of the new project and no complete picture.

And the designer lab where they are now is only accessible to company executives and relevant staff using special key cards.

Those who are not qualified to come in will not come to this area at all, while those who are qualified to come in will naturally use their key cards to come in. So, there really wasn't anyone knocking on the door.

This made Jobs and others puzzled, and at this moment, with a "tick-tock", the red warning light of the electronic door jumped green, and a person pushed the door in.

"Hey Steve, Jonathan, you're all here. "It's none other than Sid, who was in Los Angeles in the morning.

"Hee, Sid!!" Jobs obviously didn't expect Learned's arrival, and he couldn't help but stand up with a slight frown, "Why are you here, and you didn't give me a word in advance." ”
