Inside the car

"Eric, I just heard your upper echelons at the show say you're going to St. Martin's Central School of Art, right?"

Lafayette sat in the car, stared at the front windshield of the vehicle, and asked Li Lingmo

"Yes! Mr. Karl! ”

So what made you want to study there? And it's all about art! ”

Galeries Lafayette's folding fan waved again, and he wondered what the young man next to him had in mind, the cradle of costume designers at the Central School of Fine Arts in St. Martin, and what the young man had chosen to study there for.

"For the sake of inheritance, Mr. Carl, you must have worked in CHANEL for 50 years to create a culture that belongs to CHANEL, I just want to turn the culture of the Tang Dynasty into clothing and pass it on!"

Li Lingmo looked at Karl Lagerfeld beside him, and solemnly said to him why he chose San Martin.

"Interesting, Eric, the personality between you and me is very similar, I also watched all your catwalks today, put in other male models, they will only pay attention to their figure and facial maintenance, never pay attention to the tablecloth, just because of the saying in the industry, male models only need face and body, but you brought me a different impression, in addition to the perfect face and body, there is an excellent tablecloth, which is why I invited you to come to CHANEL headquarters after the show."

"Mr. Karl is falsely praised, I am not as good as you, your story can be called a myth in the fashion industry, and it is an honor for the younger generation to be favored by you!"

"Erik, you don't have to be so polite, just treat me as an ordinary old man! Okay, let's go to CHANEL's headquarters and starting point, let's go and watch the history of CHANEL with me! ”

Before I knew it, Galeries Lafayette's car had stopped in front of CHANEL's headquarters, and the two got out of the car and walked towards the inside of the gate.

Half an hour later

CHANEL headquarters Galeries Lafayette office

"Erik, aren't you surprised? But I want to let go of your surprise, I want to ask you one thing, don't rush to answer first, wait for me to finish answering, you know? ”

Li Lingmo didn't speak, and Lafayette didn't pause to continue to speak when he saw this

"Eric, do you know why I just took you to see CHANEL's brand museum and the life of Ms. Coco and me?"

Li Lingmo shook his head, he really didn't know why Lafayette in front of him would take him to see the culture and history of the brand that belonged to CHANEL's private brand.

"Because of what you said to me in the car, you said that you want to spread a culture, a culture that belongs to your China, so I changed my original idea and took you to see the brand culture and essence that belong to CHANEL, what I have been doing for the past 50 years is to spread the culture of CHANEL."

"You should know that CHANEL is famous for women's wear, and menswear has only appeared in the Fall/Winter 05/06 show, and you must want to ask why I designed the suit you just wore on the show this year, because I was going to dedicate the last menswear of my design career, and why wait until you should know it!"

"That's it! Having said that, Eric I would like to ask you, would you like to make me your leader in your design career in the period leading up to next year's spring admissions at St. Martins? ”

At the end of the words, Lafayette opened his mouth to Li Lingmo and asked him if he was willing to be a closed disciple in his life.

"Erik, think about it before you answer me! And as for the suit you walked by today, let me give you a gift! Okay, here's the blueprint of your suit, as for the reply, I'll give it to me tomorrow, I'll respect your decision, and I'll send you away when it's not too early! ”

Lafayette pressed the internal phone call and gave two instructions, then took a design manuscript from the table and handed it to Li Lingmo, and the two walked out of the office and left towards the hall on the first floor.

In front of the gate

"Eric, you are so talented, I hope you can give me a good answer, now go back to the bed and think about it, don't worry, as for the manuscript and the suit, I will consider it a gift to you!"

Galeries Lafayette and Li Lingmo stood in front of the door and said a few words to him, then turned around and walked to his office upstairs, leaving Li Lingmo with the classic Chanel bag in his hand.

"Mr. Carl, I will reply to you with action, I am willing!"

Li Lingmo clenched the handbag of CHANEL in his hand, said a word in his heart, pushed open the door and walked out, only to see Blue standing outside the door waiting for him.

"Yo! How can Lee get along with this Lafayette in the fashion industry, it's scary! After all, he is known as a king in the industry, and his discrimination against obese people has not affected his status in the fashion industry, which can be said to be recognized as difficult to get along with. ”

Blue opened his mouth and said to Li Lingmo

"I know all of this, because I've seen his deeds, but I don't think he's that difficult to get along with, it's just that some people don't get along with him! Okay, it's almost night, we should go back, you forgot I have to go back to the office to see the results of today's debut! By the way, take this suit for me, and give it to me later when I get back with the other outfit I have at your place. ”

Li Lingmo said a few words to Blue, handed the CHANEL handbag in his hand to Blue, and then walked straight behind him, the car sat in, didn't pay attention to Blue, Blue didn't say anything more when he saw this, opened the driver's door, put the bag on the co-pilot, started the car, and drove Li Lingmo towards the headquarters building of VIVA.

"Erik, I hope you find the message I'm going to convey to you in that manuscript, and I'm looking forward to your reply to me later!"

Lafayette stood by the window and looked at the direction in which Li Lingmo and Blue were leaving.

VIVA Corporate Headquarters Building

“pong~”

As soon as Li Lingmo and Blue entered the company hall, they heard a loud sound, colorful confetti fell from the sky, and the lights were also lit up, and everyone gathered around Li Lingmo and Blue from all around, chattering about Li Lingmo's debut today, the results were very successful, etc., Li Lingmo also took out his mobile phone and began to pay attention to the news reports in the entertainment industry, only to see that all the news was writing about him, and even on VIVA's official Twitter and ins, there were people leaving messages to inquire about him.

"I went, but I didn't expect two shows to cause such a big sensation, it can be said that it was an instant hit!"

Li Lingmo shouted in Chinese, and everyone stopped the noise and looked at Li Lingmo with a puzzled face

"It's nothing, you continue, I'm a little tired, I'll have to send me later, I won't go, Blue give me the clothes I put in your place, I'm going back to the hotel to rest!"

"Oh! You go on, I'll come later! ”

Blue said a word to the lower-level employees who were celebrating in the company, and went to fetch the clothes that Li Lingmo had placed with him.

After a while

"Li, are you really not going? Celebration feast? Although the old guys above have long since gone home. ”

Blue carried CHANEL and another bag, walked to Li Lingmo, who was waiting at the door, handed it to him and asked

"No! Blue, you take them to have a good time, I'm a little tired and want to go back to the hotel to rest first, and tell everyone for me to let them have fun! Let's go! ”

Li Lingmo said a few words to Blue, pushed open the door in front of him with his hand, walked straight out, and left towards the hotel where he was staying.

Ten o'clock in the evening

The floor of the room was full of rolled up waste paper, and the table was full of paintbrushes and paper, Li Lingmo was sitting at the table, painting this in his hand, and in front of him was the design manuscript that Lafayette gave him.

"I don't believe it! I can't give Carl an answer by action! ”

The pen in Li Lingmo's hand stopped painting, looked at the sketch in front of him, opened his mouth, crumpled the sketch into a ball again, threw it to the ground, restarted, took off the drawing paper on the side, took a deep breath, looked at the manuscript of Lafayette in front of him, and started painting again.
