Chapter 377
In July 1989, the first Silk Road Rain National Model Contest was born in Haicheng.
Yin Wanqin dragged the salute to the registration venue.
She is now a well-known model in the industry. However, because the modeling industry is still relatively shallow in the public's cognition, this model contest prepared for the national live broadcast has become a sensational explosive news and is highly anticipated.
From the preliminary round to the semi-finals, Wanqin entered the finals without any suspense, and it can even be said that she entered the finals as expected.
At that time, Ling Mei had just prepared the first Tianyi store in Haicheng. As soon as she gave an order, Qin Hua and her right-hand man Fu Qianqian took a cart of clothes and set up Wanqin's exclusive team.
Wanqin is a surprise surprise.
The model contest itself is a novelty. The organizers are naturally confused by the sudden emergence of the economic man team.
The person in charge of the TV station said angrily: "Your behavior is unfair to other contestants, right?" ”
At this time, He Xiangxian, one of the largest investors in the game, appeared.
"What's so fair about that?" His face was rare and strange, "Other models can also find partners." It's all trifles. ”
In fact, many of the clothes and accessories of the models participating in the competition were really rented from various clothing stores and shopping malls.
The person in charge didn't want to offend the big financier, but he was afraid that other models would oppose him, so he was hesitating, so he listened to Ling Mei and said: "This thing is not simple? Our Tianyi brand is willing to undertake the clothing sponsorship of this competition. ”
Costume Sponsorship?!
The director smiled: "You probably don't know yet. This time, we invited the chief judges to be Liu Yuting and Miss Liu, the head of the Chinese Communist Party of China. ”
So, Pierre Cardin is the sponsor of this costume?
Ling Mei immediately analyzed: "Director, as far as I know, the model competition needs to show a variety of clothing. Pierre Cardin is dominated by men's clothing, although women's regular wear is also very good, but what about dresses? ”
The director raised his eyebrows and said nothing. The dress was originally going to go to the theater and the song and dance theater to borrow some for use.
"Besides, with the support of a big name like Pierre Cardin, if you use a loaned dress, that grade is too different, isn't it?"
The director groaned: "Your words make sense. But we've already negotiated an exclusive sponsorship with Pierre Cardin......"
When Ling Mei heard this, she immediately threw a glance at Qin Hua, and pushed a rack of clothes into the office. The eyes of the director and the office staff were straight.
These beautiful dresses, beautiful dresses, oh my God, are all beautiful and gorgeous that I have never seen before.
The director was dumbfounded, believing the cowhide she boasted before: "It is worthy of being a famous brand in Guangzhou." ”
He hesitated: "Okay, Mr. Liu is going to come over for a meeting in a while, let's talk together?" ”
Ling Mei smiled: "Thank you, Director. ”
When Liu Yuting walked into the conference room wearing her own women's suit and one-step skirt and stepping on six-centimeter high heels, she saw several strange beauties and couldn't help frowning and asked, "Director, Mr. He, who are these?" ”
The director coughed, but He Xiangxian took the lead and said: "This is Xiao Lingmei, the owner of the Tianyi brand I mentioned to you before, and Qin Hua, the chief designer. ”
Liu Yuting sighed. The fight with their own brand in the ring opposite the Guangzhou store really made them break through.
"I know what you're trying to do." She had a cold smile on her face, "But our conditions have also been clearly stated. For our brand to participate in the competition, Pierre Cardin must be the sole designated sponsor. There can be no doubt about it. ”
Ling Mei smiled: "Ms. Liu, you represent big brands in Europe and the United States, and I represent domestic independent brands." I hope that in Haicheng, a beautiful city that embraces all rivers and combines Chinese and Western cultures, we can carry out an exchange and cooperation between Chinese and Western cultures. ”
"Cooperation?" Liu Yuting smiled, "I know that your brand is on the rise, and your reputation in Guangzhou is also very good." However, Miss Xiao, with all due respect, your brand is not qualified to sponsor an event at the same time as us. ”
It's just that her brand is not good enough, and she is not a big brand.
Qin Hua's face was slightly annoyed, and Fu Qianqian was also a little embarrassed. But Ling Mei's smile didn't change: "Are you qualified enough to take a look at our works-"
"No need." Liu Yuting can remember the fact that Tianyi stepped on Pierre Cardin and climbed up.
The director did not dare to say anything. In the end, the meeting was a bit of an unhappy one.
Ling Mei can fully understand Liu Yuting's arrogance, but she will never give up.
She waited outside the conference hall, ready to talk to the director again. When she didn't want the director to accompany Liu Yuting out, Liu Yuting's face was not very good-looking.
"Mr. Liu. The person you're looking for really isn't there. You should go to Suzhou to see where to go. ”
Liu Yuting sighed lightly: "Suzhou is not unfounded. But they weren't sure they could restore The Wall. Even the female textile workers who participated in "The Great Wall" back then do not dare to guarantee that they can make up for it seamlessly. It is said that the threads and colors used back then are now difficult to find exactly the same. ”
Mei's mind raced, and she quickly rummaged through the newspaper racks in the reception room.
Qin Hua asked, "What are you looking for?" ”
Ling Mei said: "Looking for our hope." ”
Liu Yuting and the director chatted while walking, and they had already walked to the elevator. Unguarded, Mei summoned them.
"Director, Mr. Liu. Please wait a minute. ”
Liu Yuting's face was cold, and she was a little impatient.
Ling Mei smiled and handed the two of them her business cards: "I forgot to introduce myself to the two just now, in addition to the boss of Tianyi, I am also the general manager of 'Guangzhou Xianyun Textile Co., Ltd.'." ”
Liu Yuting twisted her eyebrows: "Textile company? ”
"Yes." Ling Mei smiled, "In addition to the fabric research and development department, our company also has a department dedicated to the restoration of ancient cultural relics and silk fabrics. ”
Liu Yuting was even more surprised: "Huh? ”
"You've definitely seen the work that our company has restored." Ling Mei handed her the newspaper in her hand, "Among the cultural relics found in the cemetery of the nobles of the Liao Dynasty that have been in the news recently, there is the Guanyin Tuanhua brocade restored by our company. ”
Liu Yuting and the director were stunned.
"Really?" The director pushed down his glasses and stared at the brocade photos with the artistic conception of ink painting in the newspaper, although they were black and white, "Your company is so powerful?" ”
Liu Yuting couldn't help but widen her eyes. The tapestry in the photograph is gorgeous and three-dimensional, and there are no traces of restoration at all. If it was really repaired by her company - her heart was slightly moving, maybe she could have repaired "The Great Wall" too?
】
Ling Mei said again: "You can contact Professor Lan Xiaobing Lan from the Capital Cultural Relics Bureau to confirm the authenticity. ”
Liu Yuting solemnly put away her business card and couldn't help but look at her with some hesitation. Xiao Lingmei is capable, she knows. But how could she have such great ability?
Ling Mei smiled and said, "I heard Mr. Liu say just now that he wants to repair the Great Wall? Is it the hand-woven tapestry "The Great Wall" of our country that Mr. Pierre Cardin bought? ”
