Damn it! I'm surrounded by them!

"But...they concluded that there were too many female models."

"Although our fashion magazine focuses on popularization and urbanization, it also takes into account both men's and women's clothing."

"But the feedback from the marketing department is that the core purchasing group of magazines is still mainly men."

"Moreover, the survey results of brands also prove that men's purchasing power far exceeds that of women, whether in beauty products, clothing, sports equipment, electronic products, etc."

"So the brand wants us to publish more men's clothing and remove the extra women's clothing photos."

Having said that, the assistant handed a list to Shen Ying.

The above are the photos that the brand decided to take down after three rounds of review.

Shen Ying narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and her gaze quickly swept across these names and photos.

Among these photos, there are many high-quality ones that Shen Ying thinks are very good. Seeing these photos being eliminated, Shen Ying couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

The most important thing is that these photos were eliminated not because of their poor quality, nor were they caused by the models themselves.

Being eliminated was just luck.

Suddenly, Shen Ying found Liu Shishi's name on the eliminated list.

Looking down, I couldn't help but smack my lips.

All photos related to Liu Shishi have been deleted by the brand.

The reason given by the brand is that Liu Shishi's image and temperament are generally soft.

The brand's new product promotion plan this quarter is mainly aimed at urban elites. Most of the clothes are smart suits and clothes with a very cool temperament.

The brand hopes to select female models with tougher facial features.

Shen Ying leaned back in her chair and sighed helplessly.

Sometimes, being the second party is just so helpless.

She doesn't have the energy to influence the brand's choice on her own.

Shen Ying looked at Liu Shishi with a complicated expression as she was actively working under the flash lights.

She was the contracted model that Shen Ying had just signed, but her first commercial photo was deleted by the brand.

This will probably have a certain impact on her enthusiasm for future work.

Although Shen Ying felt it was a pity, this was not her main concern.

After graduating from school and officially entering the workplace, everyone must get used to one thing, that is, anything can happen inadvertently.

Maybe you worked hard for a month, but the results were finally rejected by the company's leaders and senior management without any reason.

All the hard work of a month was wasted.

This kind of thing is really normal.

Since Liu Shishi has entered the workplace and chosen the modeling industry, she must be mentally prepared.

What Shen Ying was really worried about was that her plans would be hindered.

Originally, she was planning to support Liu Shishi.

Let Liu Shishi gain some popularity while attending more commercial performances.

During the process, she can legitimately arrange for her to contact her husband Zhou Sheng.

With more contact, Shen Ying will naturally have more room to perform.

But now it seems that this plan may not work.

Plans cannot keep up with the speed of change, so Shen Ying must make timely adjustments.

The assistant beside him is still waiting for Shen Ying's reply. Now is not the time to think about these things.

Work matters should be given priority.

So Shen Ying leaned close to the assistant's ear and whispered.

"Since it's decided by the brand, let's change it according to their opinions."

"We must print out the finished products and put them on the market before other magazines publish their first summer issue, so as to seize the limited market for summer magazines."

"At the same time, we should also pay attention to the push from self-media and the Internet."

"It's the age of the Internet now, and the sales of physical publications have been declining for several months in a row."

"It's not just us. Sales of other competing magazines are also declining month by month."

"It is foreseeable that the Internet will be our main battlefield for a long time to come."

The assistant nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, Sister Shen."

“The UP hosts in the beauty and fashion areas who often cooperate with us have already received our business orders.”

“The video is also being produced on an expedited basis.”

"But... the UP hosts of these mainstream websites are not our people after all. If the streaming effect is good, I am worried..."

"Brands will skip us and work directly with them in the future."

Shen Ying narrowed her eyes slightly.

The assistant's concerns were indeed justified.

After thinking for a while, Shen Ying replied.

"We have a lot of contracted models here. Why not spend some money to make them internet celebrities or fashion influencers?"

"These models have signed long-term contracts with us. If they really change jobs, they will have to pay a sky-high penalty that ordinary people can never repay."

"My opinion is to pick a few with good qualifications and train and package them."

"The character settings and styles are also differentiated."

"In the new era of the Internet, we also need to have our own Internet promoters."

Afterwards, Shen Ying had a brief discussion with her assistant about this issue and finally decided on a preliminary plan.

Afterwards, the assistant went to organize the information.

After half an hour, the photography here will still take some time to finish.

Shen Ying instructed the photographer to ask Liu Shishi to come to her office after the shooting, and then left the studio with her assistant.

After returning to the office, they took a thick list from the assistant and began to select suitable candidates from these models.

At the same time, a new plan was gradually taking shape in Shen Ying's mind.

An hour later.

After several lists were shortlisted, Shen Ying handed these lists and subsequent plans to her assistant.

Later, she will take this plan and list to the conference room and give feedback to senior leaders.

Once agreed, it can be formally implemented.

Not long after the assistant left, Liu Shishi knocked on the door.

After bowing slightly, he put his legs together and stood straight in front of Shen Ying's desk.

"Um...Sister Shen, you called me?"

Shen Ying nodded.

After thinking about it, I told her that the brand had unanimously decided to delete her photos.

Expected.

Liu Shishi felt a little disappointed.

"It's okay, Sister Shen."

"This kind of thing happened frequently when I was taking photos for online merchants before."

“I worked hard all day, but after the film was released, the other party was not satisfied.”

“Not a single one was left…”

"If you meet some trustworthy shop owners, they may give you money. If you meet unreasonable ones, they will not only deduct the commission, but also slander you behind your back."

Speaking of this, it seems that some bad memories came back.

Liu Shishi sighed helplessly.

"I know... my face shape is softer, not as hard as other models."

"In the female modeling community, my image may not meet everyone's aesthetic standards."

"So... I'm already very happy that you can give me this opportunity and sign me."

Chapter 67: Not a Simple Banquet

It seems that Liu Shishi's previous modeling career was not smooth.

This was also within Shen Ying's expectations.

After smiling gently, Shen Ying waved her hand and said comfortingly.

"Gold will always shine."

"Don't lose confidence in yourself just because of this failure."

"The market does need female models with three-dimensional features and strong faces."

"But at the same time, we also need models like you who look gentle and soft to promote some targeted brands and clothing."

"So, your chance hasn't come yet."

"During this time, work hard to maintain your body shape and skin, and don't neglect your dancing skills, as these are your highlights."

After saying that, Shen Ying leaned back in her chair and turned slightly.

Speak softly in a gentle tone.

“By the way, although your photo was taken down by the brand.”

"But I have a new project here, are you interested in participating?"

When Liu Shishi heard this, she immediately nodded.

"OK!"

"I don't have anything to do right now, so I can join in!"

I can tell.

Liu Shishi really hopes to have a chance.

Shen Ying pursed her lips and said with a chuckle.

"Today, the Internet has become people's second living place."

“So I plan to open up a track for Urban Beauty on the Internet.”

"Although this plan has just been submitted for review, from what I understand, it should be approved soon."

"Once they pass the review, we will select several distinctive models and train them as internet celebrities or fashion influencers."

"If you agree to participate in this project, I will take a few selected models out for dinner tonight so that we can get to know each other."

"Of course, you will also sign a new contract with the company in the future."

Liu Shishi agreed to Shen Ying's proposal without hesitation.

Afterwards, Shen Ying confirmed some details with her and asked her to leave the office and wait for notification.

After the surroundings became completely quiet, Shen Ying looked at the wedding photo with Zhou Sheng on the table.

A deep love welled up in my heart once again.

I couldn't help but touch Zhou Sheng's face with my fingers.
