Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 821: It's just a compliment, what's the big deal?
Take a deep breath and calm down.

After combing his hair in front of the mirror and checking it carefully, Little John did not rush to Axel's office in the same office building.

Instead, he took the application materials for public relations expenses and went to the finance department for approval before going to the HYS office building next door.

"What are you here for?"

This unwelcome question did not come from Xiangyang, who asked him to send the email for approval, but no one needed to say it out loud.

"I'll let my assistant work with you." Little John, who has already regarded the position of director as a piece of cake, spoke with great pride and already had a favorite candidate for his assistant.

"Bella, help me and Xiang buy two cups of coffee at the door." As he spoke, he took out his wallet from his pocket.

Not to mention, he actually carried some cash with him today.

But in addition to the 10 euros handed to Annabella, there was also a small card.

"You can exchange it for two cups. See if you have anything you like to drink."

This sentence completely frustrates Annabella.

"Remember to bring it in after you buy it. I have to go to Axel's office later." Little John didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Buy 10 cups and get one free.

In order to collect the money for this exchange, it took him a long time as he flew back and forth frequently.

Wouldn't it be more meaningful to use this precious exchange to treat Annabelle than to pay directly for the meal?
"What are you doing here?" Xiangyang, who was reading the inlay craft textbook, raised his head when he saw him walk in with great interest.

"You and your assistant seem to have a good understanding of each other." Little John curled his lips and said with a smile:
"I came to ask you to sign for me. I happened to be on my way to Axel's office so I stopped by."

"Oh, okay." Xiangyang didn't think much about it and took it and took a look at it.

Amount: 1000 million USD.

With financial signature.

After nodding, he wrote his name on it with a big stroke of the pen, handed it to Little John, and saw that he was staying here and didn't want to leave, so he frowned and asked:
"Is there anything else?"

"Yes, I'll buy you a cup of coffee." Little John smiled attentively, "If Axel calls you later to ask about my recent work, don't forget to speak up for me."

Xiangyang said "Hmm?", then remembered Little John's suggestion and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.

This guy, is he still dreaming?
"Aren't you satisfied with my work?" Little John asked quickly.

"Okay, okay, you go quickly. I'll tell the truth when I get a call." Xiangyang didn't want to waste time arguing with little John, so he waved his hand and drove his friend away.

"Then we have a deal." Little John was a little reluctant to leave because his coffee had not arrived yet.

And I didn't dare to stay.

After all, he was counting on his friends to say a few good words for him.

He was very clear in his mind that no matter who he offended, he must not offend his friends.

But it also reflects that he is confident in his work performance.

At least, just based on the achievements we have made so far.

He believes that the value created by Hermès Film Investment Company is much higher than the profits generated by the perfume department run by his father JCE.

Axel also agrees with this point.

After a year, he was proud of the impressive results, after all, it was he who proposed to set up this branch company at the meeting.

Within the group, he has always held the title of president of the company.

So when Little John came over, he specially arranged for his assistant to wait at the elevator door.

This treatment is a hundred times better than Xiangyang's!
Little John was deeply moved.

"Jiang, what would you like to drink? Tea or coffee?"

"black tea."

"Okay, I just happen to want to drink a cup too." The black tea that Axel prepared was not the Lipton that even the British could hardly afford.

Seeing that he prepared it for him personally, little John's heart was filled with great satisfaction.

"Mr. President, please take a look at this application document for Oscar's public relations expenses." Little John couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

"Let's put this aside for now. I called you here mainly for other things." Axel waved his hand.

He called Little John over for two things.

One is to understand Xiangyang's dynamics and see if he has any intention of changing jobs.

Another one.
He planned to have John Jr. become a member of the H51 board of directors in his capacity as CEO of Hermès’ current film investment company.

Of course, this director.
First, no money, and second, no power.

To put it bluntly, I am just an auditor and don't even have the qualifications to speak at the meeting.

I was just clapping in the audience.

As for why this honor should be given to Little John, there are many considerations here.

The person who gave this suggestion was Pierre, the global creative director of Hermès in the family.

The purpose is also very clear.

Hearing this sudden good news, little John, who had been planning this matter, was stunned and began to have doubts in his heart.

"How come I'm so lucky?"

"No need to owe Xiangyang a favor anymore?!"

"Don't be too surprised. The value you have created for the company deserves this recognition." Axel's smile was still gentle, but he was also satisfied with little John's shock.

"Don't you need to call Xiang?" Little John's voice sounded a little nervous. Could it be that his good friend had already given a heads-up?

He is really too...
Before he could finish thanking Xiang Yang in his mind, he heard Axel say with a smile: "Rang, Xiang has his rewards, and so do you."

Little John nodded, of course.

He always works hard.

That's what I said, it sounds weird.

If that's what you said, why don't you give me some H51 shares? I can also be a shareholder.
John Jr. will be nominated as a director at the next board meeting?

The one who reacted the most to this incident was not JCE.

Not Xiangyang either.

It was Bea Schaffer.

The moment she received the email in the afternoon, she couldn't help but frown.

Why?
Is he worthy?
Two questions popped into her mind.

Fortunately, he didn't have the chance to show off in front of me. Just a few minutes after this guy left, Xiangyang came out of the office, holding the inlay craft materials and asked me to contact the factory.

Well, Xiangyang is currently concentrating on discussing the production process of this heel with the inlay master in the factory in the suburbs.

If Little John wants to show off in person, he has to drive for more than an hour first.

As for calling.

Bea Schaffer laughed.

Just fight if you can.

"What's wrong? Who made you unhappy again?" Under the guidance of a professional cutting master, Xiangyang tried several times.

After finally getting a graphic that satisfied him, he looked at the time and prepared to take a break.

"Who else could it be?" Bi Shaffer explained, "Your friend is going to be promoted to director."

"Oh? Really? Pierre is quite generous." Xiangyang smiled slightly, holding the mother-of-pearl he had cut, and said, "Please spread out the design for me so I can compare it."

"Boss, aren't you surprised?" Bi Shafer was very obedient, but she was also confused.

"What's so surprising about this? Both Axel and Pierre are smart people." Xiangyang was not pretending to be calm. He had already made this prediction in his mind.

To win over, to reward, to suppress, to divide.
Anyone who has attended high school in China and read history books carefully will not be too surprised.

Coincidentally, he just finished high school in the country.

My liberal arts grades are quite good.

"I'm just afraid that some people will get carried away." Bi Shafer snorted. As a top student at Columbia University, she naturally understood the meaning of Xiangyang's words.

Obviously, this seems to increase Xiangyang's voice in the group. After all, to outsiders, Little John and Xiangyang are in the same boat.

But it is also differentiation.

The reason for doing this is not difficult to guess. What Hermès can give Xiangyang now has reached its limit.

If there are more, we can only wait until the mess with the LVMH Group is sorted out.

During this period, we need development, stability and balance.

"Why don't you just take my place as a director?" Xiang Yang said lightly. You two are both directors with no power, so neither of you is inferior to the other, right?

"Hmm?" Bi Shafer's eyes lit up.

"Then if you don't want to, I can't let Liu be the boss. She doesn't have her mind on this."

"Then I'll have to get her opinion first." Bi Shafer smiled.

We must strive for Liu Qianqian's opinion, after all, the shares are written in the name of the visitor.

But when she took the opportunity when Xiangyang went back to continue cutting to call Liu Qianqian, she found that the number was busy.

"Liu save me"

What is action power?
Little John, who kept his word, came out of Axel's office and went straight up the stairs to the perfume department's office area without even taking the elevator.

The staff in the perfume section were not at all surprised by his arrival.

It's not surprising when a son comes to see his father.

But what happened next?
Things were different after little John came to JCE's office, patted his father on the shoulder as if it was a matter of course, and praised him, "Old John, I appreciate the value you have created for the company this year."

"What's the matter?"

The pajama party last night lasted too late, and Liu Qianqian was still a little depressed as she sat in the nanny car heading to the airport.

Today, I didn't sleep until 4pm again.
"Liu, can I move in and live with Xiang for a while?" Little John's voice was filled with a hint of request.

"Don't you two often sleep together when I'm not around?" Liu Qianqian didn't quite understand. Did she need to report this to him? Couldn't they just discuss it directly?

Could it be that? They had a fight?
There is gossip~
"Oh, I don't know how to explain it to you." Little John sighed.

How should he tell Liu Xixi that his call to Xiangyang would be transferred to Bea Schaeffer and then transferred again to Anna Wintour?

Never mind. It's not important at all.

Anyway, he has plenty of ways to find Xiangyang.

"It's okay, I have patience." Liu Qianqian became interested and asked quickly:
"Tell me quickly, did you have a fight with Laura?"

"How could I quarrel with Laura?" Little John patted his chest and assured that he was definitely not kicked out of the house by Laura.

But this time, he and his father had a complete falling out.

Well.
It was originally stiff.

But Laura must not be involved, otherwise it would be difficult for her.

So, let's sacrifice Xiangyang.

"Didn't your dad beat you?" After listening to Little John's account of the whole story, Liu Xixi laughed so hard that tears came out.

Only Little John's brain circuit could do such a thing.

"I calculated it on purpose." Little John raised his lips. He was not stupid. Even if JCE swung his belt loudly, he would not take off his pants in front of the whole department.

Besides, before he said that.

I deliberately put down the blinds first.

This is really giving face to the old man.

Besides, was I wrong?

As a director of the group, shouldn’t you give recognition and praise to the departments with outstanding performance this year?

You are so much older than me, so what's wrong with calling me "Old John"?
Your wife is at home
"Then I can't let you live in our house. Your parents are very good to me."

When Liu Qianqian heard this, she raised her head and rejected Little John's request.

JCE's parents, after all, are the witnesses of her and Xiangyang's coming together, so we will invite them to the banquet when the time comes~
Moreover, the villa she and Xiangyang lived in in Paris was chosen with the company of little John's mother.

Most of the colorful flowers and plants in the yard were also designed by JCE.

So, I can’t help you with this.

"Let me make it clear first, it's not that I won't help you, but don't think I don't know that you are plotting against our Xiangyang." Liu Qianqian added.

"How could I plot against him?"

Little John immediately retorted, "Liu, someone is plotting against me and Xiang."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Liu Qianqian's heart skipped a beat. Who dares to plot against her husband?

"If you let Xiang take me in, I will tell you."
