Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 771 I Like Jealousy

"Falling in love with someone else!"

"Bah! Stop throwing dirty water on me!"

"I'm just stating the facts. If you don't believe me, just look at what others say." He was sarcastic at first, then grinned as he handed the phone to Little John Xiangyang.

On the screen was a photo of Carey Mulligan and Karl Lagerfeld having dinner together that evening.

Oh shit!

It must be her agent who leaked the information.

Xiangyang pushed Little John's hand back. What the media is really like? What does "falling in love with someone else" mean?
Emma Stone wasn't even on the list that Karl Lagerfeld gave him, right? !
Really.
But Xiangyang really wronged Carey Mulligan's agent.

The person who revealed the news was actually none other than Karl Lagerfeld, the man with white hair in the photo.

As for the reason.

Only he himself knows the answer.

Anyway, Gauthier learned something from the communication between the two.

To sum up in one sentence: Although Karl Lagerfeld still holds a high position in the fashion industry, he also feels that he is getting old and can no longer keep up with the changes of the times.

It's not surprising to feel this way.

Has Xiangyang achieved any outstanding results in haute couture and fashion week this year?
No.

But this still did not affect his ability to operate the emerging brand HYS to the spotlight while also bringing all-round development to Hermès.

And now, the little guy has gained both fame and fortune and has proven himself.

It's normal for Karl Lagerfeld to use his brain in this regard.

Although it is not obvious, it shows that there are inextricable connections between Xiangyang and Chanel.
"Leave early when you're done with your work. Don't waste time here." Xiang Yang pointed at the door of his office with the pen in his hand in annoyance.

He was just about to open his mouth and shout "Shafu, show you out."

"I'm just waiting for your signature." Little John tapped the contract on his friend's desk with his fingers.

Xiangyang went to meet Karl Lagerfeld.

He was not idle either. He agreed on the time and place with Lai Kang early yesterday morning, and then the two of them met and settled the matter within less than half an hour.

Then it’s about discussing the details and drawing up the contract.

"A Separation", distribution rights of China.

$30, not a penny less.

After his friend signs the signature, he can proudly announce, "I, Little John, have never lost money on my investments!"

"This time is no exception!"

"Have the contract and legal affairs been approved?" Xiang Yang asked, "Are there any additional conditions?"

"Of course I have." Little John smiled and said that he had completed the process.

As for the additional conditions, that was a verbal negotiation between him and Lai Kang. What does it have to do with Xiang Yang?
It's just helping out at the Berlin Film Festival, no big deal.

"Let me take a look." Xiangyang flipped through the document to the column for legal signature. After confirming that everything was correct, he wrote his name where he needed to sign.

"I didn't expect that they would act so quickly." After signing, Xiangyang started to drive people away.

"You still have some face."

Little John happily took the folder in his hand, and then said with a smile: "Okay, I won't keep you here to explain to your wife. But don't blame me for not reminding you that the project of "The Great Gatsby" is not that simple."

"Wait a minute?" Xiang Yang quickly called out to his friend.

"Do you know why it took Baz Luhrmann so long to find investors?" Little John turned around proudly. He knew Xiang Yang would definitely call him.

Xiangyang frowned, "What do you mean?"

"This idiot director actually wanted to shoot this movie in 3D. Haha, he really is an old-fashioned Australian, just like a kangaroo."

When talking about this, little John couldn't help but smile.

"The Great Gatsby" has been adapted into a movie for the fifth time, including this one.

There is no way around it, because it is known as "America's most moving love tragedy"? The charm of this aspect is indeed something that Americans love to talk about.

But this time, Baz Luhrmann took a different approach for the sake of gimmick and planned to combine it with 3D technology to tell this story.

In the words of Little John and the others, who does this Australian think he is?

Hitchcock?
He also spent a lot of money to work with Leo for the second time.

Leo does have box office appeal, but this movie is simply not suitable for him, especially since the project is aimed at the global film market.

But European audiences don't like Leo.

Asia.
Little John wasn't so sure.

But without the recognition of the European box office market, this movie is destined to be just Americans' self-entertainment.

It’s okay to have fun, but there is really no need to invest heavily.

"Carl has confirmed the investment." Xiangyang and Little John exchanged glances, and his friend's analysis attracted his attention.

"Yeah, I heard."

Little John shrugged. "But don't worry, this movie won't lose much money. The director plans to shoot in Australia, and there will be a lot of subsidies. Besides, what Mr. Lafayette wants is just a gimmick."

"That's true."

Go to Australia to shoot and enjoy up to 40% cash back.

Expenses including visual effects, sound and editing are also reimbursed.

In addition, the director is Australian, so choosing this place to shoot is a good way to reduce the risks brought by investment.

However, Xiangyang felt that little John's words sounded like he was secretly happy that "no loss is a profit".

If the old Buddha knew this
I guess JCE’s stick is definitely indispensable.

But before we could observe a few minutes of silence for our friend, after Little John left, Liu Xixi's call came as expected.

"Wife, don't believe what The Sun wrote. I didn't even go to dinner yesterday." Xiang Yang explained after answering the call.

If you have done nothing wrong, you won't be afraid of Xixi coming to your door. "She looks really beautiful. You have good taste." Liu Xixi smiled.

"well enough."

Xiangyang dare not be proud.

"I won't tell you this. I'm not here to speak up for Sister Shitou." Liu Qianqian smiled and said, "Boss Han asked me to tell you something. He found a courtyard house specifically for Lafayette and Gaultier. It's over in Houhai."

"Oh, really." Xiangyang clicked his tongue.
Why don't you prepare one for him too?

"Okay, I'll help him pass it on later. Does my wife have any other instructions?"

"instruct?"

"correct."

Just say, how many people in this world can serve as his mouthpiece?
I guess this is the only one who is willing to do it.

"Then reimburse me for the gas money when the time comes." Liu Qianqian suddenly laughed out loud. She would be responsible for picking up and dropping off her mother-in-law at the premiere in a few days.

It’s not too much to act like a spoiled child to your husband, ask for some gas money and then give it to your father-in-law who is staying alone at home, right?
"Why, you want to go too?"

When he heard that it was the premiere of this movie, Xiangyang sighed.

This is done by Han Sanping, the public relations officer.

There's really nothing to say.

After going there several times, he even invited his wife over.

Liu Qianqian went.

Isn't that the same as if he had gone?
Well.
At least to outsiders, it means something similar.

"Well, I'll accompany mom. But don't worry, Mu Xin and Zhi Yin will stay at home and won't join in the fun." Liu Qianqian said that this was what she should do and there was no need to be surprised.

"That's really hard for you. You can't even have a good rest." Xiangyang told the truth.

He still feels sorry for his wife who has to film day and night.

Staying up late is not good for your health.

Especially for the skin on the face, after a long time, you will become a woman with a yellow face.

Liu Qianqian on the other end of the phone had no idea what Xiangyang was thinking about. When she heard this, she felt warm in her heart and said proudly:

"Since you gave me a gift, you don't have to reimburse me for the gas money."

"You received it so quickly?"

Xiangyang was even more surprised.

"How is that possible? It requires customs clearance and other approvals." Liu Qianqian was speechless. There are a series of procedures to go through for film to enter the country.

She took some time today to ask Han Sanping, and it would take at least a week.

Moreover, this was after saying hello.

If you don't say hello, one month, two months, half a year.
It is even possible that it will be returned.

"I just want to thank you in advance." Liu Qianqian said, with the corners of her mouth rising again.

She called and asked Director Abbas.

It is said that the film is very heartwarming and of high quality.

In Berlin, there is a good chance of winning an award.

For someone like her who aspires to be a good actor, being able to enjoy this unreleased good movie in advance is a great pleasure.

Even director Zhang Mouzi, upon hearing that such a movie was on the way, whispered that he had a machine specifically for projecting film.

We guarantee that the movie-watching experience is no less than going to the best cinemas in the country.

Of course, it’s not just Zhang Mouzi who wants this movie, but also veteran actors and Qin Hao and others.

In the end, if Han Sanping hadn't decided to do an internal screening at Huaying first, Liu Qianqian would not have been able to get away.

Compared to Liu Qianqian who was happily sharing this interesting story, Xiangyang felt a little unhappy after hearing it. He had originally planned to enjoy it with Liu Qianqian.

When I took it, someone else had already taken it.

Mad!
Sure enough, good things are always remembered by people.

"Hey, Director Zhang and I exchanged the film backup of "Time Travelers". I can watch it with you then." Liu Qianqian coaxed Xiangyang in a coquettish tone.

"Haha, see for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Xiangyang was even more unwilling to do it.

Isn't this just adding to the trouble? It's like taking a knife and hitting him a few times.

unless
Replace Qin Hao's face with his.

Otherwise, don't even think about him enjoying this movie.

"Silly boy! I only promised Director Zhang to let them take the film for copying." Liu Qianqian could imagine Xiangyang's angry face and hurried to comfort him.

"Xiangyang, you know what? I really like seeing you get jealous~"

"If you dare to fall in love with someone else, hehe."

Keeping these two sentences in her heart, Liu Qianqian said softly:

"If you don't want to, I'll just enjoy it at home. It just so happens that I asked Zhao Xin to ask the assistant director to help buy a set of film projection equipment."

"Where are you going?" Bi Shaffer, who had just returned from outside, saw Annabella packing her bag and preparing to leave, and asked curiously.

Annabelle, who had collected Xiangyang's bank card, let out an "ah", raised her head and sighed at Bi Shaffer, saying:
"Boss suddenly wanted to buy a film projector, so I went to buy it for him."

"Ok?"

Bi Shaffer frowned in confusion and said speechlessly, "Why don't you just ask Little John to send it over if you want to buy something?"

"No, no." Annabelle waved her hands quickly.

Xiangyang specifically reminded that little John must not be informed of this.

otherwise
