Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 963 The emerging 'big devil' in the fashion world

On the street of Fubao Avenue.

Standing upstairs and looking down, you really have to count the number of cameras and cameras facing the entrances of the neighboring HYS and Hermès headquarters.

It must be said that there are really a lot of reporters gathered in Paris today.

There were reporters at the doors of major brands with headquarters in Paris, and there were also quite a few reporters near various famous hotels.

Similarly, there were many reporters waiting downstairs of the Pirate’s house.

"Karl, I was just drunk. That video is by no means the whole story. I can guarantee this with my character."

Behind the opaque curtains, the pirate sitting on the sofa wrapped in a silk robe looked tired, with a beard all over his face and no longer as energetic as before.

Perhaps the word decadent might be more appropriate to describe him.

Just recently, he and his lawyer co-wrote an apology statement, which will be officially announced tomorrow.

Although this did not help him get fired from Dior, the apology still had to be made.

It was not to gain the forgiveness of fashion executives, but within just one day his lawyer received contacts from relevant parties.

Compared with the 2.25 euro fine, how to avoid six months in prison is a difficult problem.

And to be honest, this case will probably take up a lot of his energy.

The longer the time, the more attention will continue.

Then it would be difficult for the influence he has received in the European fashion industry to change in a short period of time.

The whole incident became such a big deal, not only because of his shocking remarks, but also because of the video of him in a drunken state that is currently going viral on YouTube.

Of course, there is also the help of INS.

“But now there are only edited clips online.” Karl Lagerfeld understood what he meant.

But who cares that this truncated video is not the complete version.

"Let's change the subject, Carl. I'm very happy that you called me. To be honest, I didn't expect you to be under so much pressure."

In just less than two days, the pirate who was once so popular in Dior and the fashion industry became a rat crossing the street that everyone wanted to kill.

It is impossible to say that there is no fluctuation in your heart.

Especially after receiving the notice that Dior had fired him, the anxiety of wanting to defend his remarks but not being able to find a suitable way made this feeling even more real.

"Don't say that, old friend." Karl Lagerfeld sighed and said, "I made the decision only after hearing from the assistant that Schaeffer would come to visit you at this time."

"."

Hearing this, the Pirate Lord also sighed.

Thinking about the group of reporters standing outside his house who were eager to take pictures of his embarrassing look, he originally wanted to refuse Bi Shaffer from coming.

If things go wrong, these people might fabricate stories and take advantage of the situation.

But at this moment he wanted to find someone to talk to.

At this point, consolation is useless, Karl Lagerfeld simply said: "Don't sigh, old friend. Cheer up, so that you have the courage to face what comes next."

Knowing how much trouble he had gotten into, the pirate said helplessly, "I know."

Even though he said this, his voice sounded very hollow.

Karl Lagerfeld got straight to the point: "Perhaps I can help you."

"???"

When he heard the familiar name, the pirate was stunned at first.

What does this whole thing have to do with Xiangyang?

But he soon understood what Karl Lagerfeld meant.

As a well-known designer, he must be familiar to many people in the media.

The key point is that even Karl Lagerfeld, who has a unique influence in the fashion industry, has to take into account the considerations of the brand and contact him privately. So both the editors of magazines and the reporters of TV stations have their own considerations.

To put it bluntly, not using him for news purposes is already very generous of us.

"I remember shooting a Vlog before, which was very popular both on YouTube and in their country. You might try to speak for yourself through such channels," Karl Lagerfeld continued.

According to his understanding, the whole story is definitely not like the video that is now going viral on the Internet.

Although Pirate loves to drink, he is definitely not an alcoholic like the one in the video.

Besides, whose words are more trustworthy, a stranger or a friend you have known for decades?

This question doesn't even involve your butt.

Although some established facts cannot be changed, there is no other way but to make the real situation clear through effective channels and to reduce the public's resentment towards Pirate Lord as much as possible.

After all, John Galliano is only 50 years old now.

If he really leaves the fashion industry completely because of this incident, it won't be as simple as his previous falling out with Givenchy.

"I"

The pirate swallowed.

In his eyes, Xiangyang was just a junior. He had to ask a junior for help.
"If he didn't want to help you, he wouldn't have agreed to let Schaffer come to you as soon as he got off the plane," Karl Lagerfeld said bluntly.

"I"

The pirate realized that he was being pretentious and let out a long sigh.

This is such an obvious thing, why don't I realize it?

But on second thought, he wondered if there was something wrong with him treating Xiang Yang as a junior in the industry.

The pirate, who didn't even care how he hung up the phone, sat on the sofa in a daze for a moment, then hurriedly took out a piece of paper with his apology statement and a pen from under the messy wine bottles and cups on the table, and frantically recalled the things and reports related to Xiangyang during this period of time.

YMCA.
Oscar.
Vlog
Damascus
London
I didn't know until I sorted them out. After writing them down one by one, Pirate rubbed his eyes in a daze. Since Christmas, Xiangyang, whom he used to regard as his junior, has done so many things without realizing it. These are just the important ones related to fashion.

Things like Chinese movie releases, or HYS-related football, hiking and cycling events are not included.

If you list them all,
The pirate finally reacted and was looking at the paper in front of him in amazement while sighing.

How great will Xiangyang’s influence be in the future fashion industry?
Pirate is not sure whether Xiang Yang can surpass him or Karl Lagerfeld. After all, from the perspective of a designer, the status of the work in the circle is of great significance, but I am afraid that Anna Wintour's position is somewhat insecure.

Because both Youtube and INS are related to this young man.

Well.
Blinking, the pirate couldn't help but reveal a miserable smile.

He almost forgot.

Karl Lagerfeld and Anna Wintour also participated in this INS project.

This software, which was inconspicuous when it was first established, has developed into one of the most popular mobile apps among people in the fashion industry in just less than a year.

What was he doing at that time?

I am worried about Dior's sales performance.

If he had spared even a little bit of energy to pay attention to and participate in INS, would he still not dare to open INS on his phone today?

Are you still having a headache about finding the right channel to express yourself?
It's like losing the watermelon and picking up sesame seeds!

Just as he cursed himself, a whistle sounded outside the yard.
Seeing the scene in front of Pirate's house, not only the driver but even people like Bi Shaffer, who had lived in the journalist circle since childhood, were shocked.

There are so many people.

However, little John, who came in the same car, had an excited expression on his face.

This occasion was definitely prepared for him!
Before getting out of the car, Little John quickly adjusted the buttons of his suit, trying to show his most handsome and confident side.

Even while in the car, he began to smile at the reporters who were taking pictures outside the window.

Come to see the Pirate Lord, are you afraid of being scolded?
This is nothing.

"I'm sorry, it's not convenient for me to accept an interview today.

Schaffer and I came here specifically on behalf of Hermès Films based on our previous collaboration and out of respect for John Galliano’s past work.

We feel that it is correct to express our attitude in a more formal manner at this sensitive time.

Equality and mutual love should not be challenged. I condemn the impact of John's behavior without reservation, but I believe John is aware of this."

When he got out of the car and faced the microphone that was almost pointed at his face by the reporter, Little John had obviously prepared his speech on the way here.

While completely clearing Hermès and Xiangyang of all blame, the author also used the art of language to diss the LVMH Group, which fired Pirate with just an announcement and without even spending any paper or ink.

He really didn't believe it. No one could understand what he said.

"Regarding the Oscar winning, we will hold a formal celebration tomorrow." After saying the first thing, John Jr. did not forget to flatter himself.

At this year's Oscars, "The King's Speech" was the real winner.

But the five golden statuettes for Best Actress and Best Art Direction for "Black Swan", Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Original Score for "The Social Network", and Best Foreign Language Film for "The Intouchables" are also not bad.

However, judging from the reactions of reporters at the scene
Ok.

The just concluded Oscars ceremony has become a hot topic in the face of various hot topics that occurred in the two days before the Paris Fashion Week.

"Mr. Jean, you mentioned the sensitive period just now. What was the reason for your brand to invite Ms. Asma during the fashion week?"

"Mr. Jean, may I ask if Xiang's speech at the Oscars was a response to his true feelings about his previous trip to Damascus?"

"Mr. Jean"

Although the reporters who had trapped Little John, Bea Schaeffer and the Hermès staff outside of Pirate Lord's apartment were shouting "Mr. Jean" louder and louder, all the topics they asked were about Xiangyang.

This made Little John frown.

"I took them all out."

Before Little John could finish his internal complaints, a reporter quickly asked, "Mr. Rang, could you please tell us what Mr. Xiang thinks of Pirate Lord's wrong remarks?"

"." Little John took a deep breath. I'm not a worm in his stomach. Do you think I'm Liu?
"Although he hasn't made a clear statement, I believe my boss's opinion on this matter is the same as his speech on the Oscars stage." Bea Shaffer took a small step forward.

"Yes!" Little John gritted his teeth to show his agreement.

After the words were spoken, the reporters became even more excited when they saw the two men start to respond to questions.

But this time, the reporters all turned their microphones to Bea Schaffer.

"Excuse me, Miss Schaffer."

"Ms. Schaffer."

"." Little John felt very unwilling when he saw this scene.

It would be fine if Xiang wasn't here and stole his limelight.

After all, it is necessary to keep the friends with status to take the blame and bear the brunt, but why can Bi Shaffer attract the attention of reporters with just one sentence?

How is this possible?

What if the pirate upstairs is secretly watching the actions below through the gap in the curtains?
No, I have to find a way!
Seeing that the highlight moment was getting farther and farther away from him, Little John, who had made up his mind all of a sudden, moved forward and half of Bi Shaffer's body was blocked behind him, and said to the reporter who was still asking questions:
"On the way back, I bought a book to kill time. Books are tools for building the soul. I think what happened to Pirate Lord can be best described by a sentence in this book.

It is the human heart that releases infinite light, and it is also the human heart that creates boundless darkness."

After he finished speaking, not only did the reporters fail to react for a moment, even Bea Schaeffer, who had always looked down on Little John, showed a surprised expression.

When did little John become so smart?

Wait a minute!
Although Bea Shaffer was surprised just now, she immediately realized that the words that came out of little John's mouth were all famous quotes from "Les Miserables".

Why did Little John read this book on the plane?
It was her boss Xiangyang who insisted that she buy this thing for JoJo.

My Boss is indeed the one.
