"What method?" Ye Shuang asked, a glimmer of light appearing in his eyes. After all, Ye Shuang had received quite a few benefits from Ye Qing's help before.
Ye Qing said, "With the launch of the new magazine, not only do outsiders want a piece of the pie, but the magazine itself is also very concerned. It's hard to say who will take the photos for the inside pages, but the cover will definitely be taken by a well-known photographer. I think Liang Lu should be a good candidate, so instead of coming to me, you should ask Liang Lu."
Ye Shuang had expected Ye Qing to say something, but after hearing what Ye Qing said, she was disappointed.
She organized her thoughts and spoke calmly and frankly: "Ye Qing, I admit that Liang Lu and I... but I really didn't continue to be with Liang Lu. I heard that Liang Lu and I were involved in Xi Quan's grandmother's death, but the day I was seen with Liang Lu was just a coincidence. Some of the things that happened later may seem absurd to everyone, and I think they are absurd too. Although I still like Liang Lu, I won't do anything for feelings like I used to. Xi Yue isn't even accepted by the Liang family, so why should I?"
Although the Liang family members were unwilling to be with Liang Lu and Xi Yue, it was mainly because Xi Yue had been ill before.
However, Ye Qing also agreed with Ye Shuang's words.
Although Ye Shuang is in good health and has no health problems, the Liang family may not be able to accept her past romantic relationships.
Ye Qing used to think Liang Lu was a decent person, but after what happened between him and Xi Yue, Ye Qing realized that she had been wrong about him.
Putting everything else aside, he's at least not a suitable husband candidate. What Xi Quan's grandmother said under those circumstances was practically her last words. It's understandable that Liang's family disagreed, but even if Liang Lu didn't convince his family to agree, he should at least have reached a consensus with them. He shouldn't have made his family go to the hospital to find Xi Quan's grandmother.
So when Ye Shuang said that nothing would happen between her and Liang Lu, Ye Qing thought that Ye Shuang wasn't stupid after all.
Listening to Ye Shuang's words, it seemed she had misunderstood something. Ye Qing said, "I'm speaking from the heart, without any sarcasm, just stating the facts. If Liang Lu is asked to shoot a cover for a major magazine, unless the magazine has decided to use a big-name celebrity for the cover, then if it's not a celebrity but just a model, then the photographer absolutely has the right to choose a model that fits the theme of the shoot. As long as it's for the good of the magazine, the people at the magazine shouldn't interfere too much with the photographer's choice."
Generally, for such blockbuster films, if a celebrity is specified, a photographer who fits the style will be found.
Another scenario Ye Qing mentioned is the second one: the cover doesn't feature celebrities, but a photographer has already been chosen. In this case, the photographer might choose a model based on their own style.
The reason why Ye Qing and Ye Shuang maintain such a distant yet close relationship is because the current Ye Shuang is significantly different from the Ye Shuang of the past. The current Ye Shuang understands what it means to handle business professionally and knows how to think calmly and rationally. She is no longer like before, who would ignore everything Ye Qing said just because of a conflict with him, and would even argue unreasonably if Ye Qing was right.
But now Ye Shuang is seriously considering what Ye Qing said, just like now.
Although Ye Qing initially misunderstood Ye Shuang after he shared his thoughts, Ye Shuang listened to Ye Qing's explanation and began to think about it.
After a moment, Ye Shuang put aside her thoughts and said to Ye Qing, "I will seriously consider what you said, but I think that since it is the cover of the inaugural issue, it must be taken by a big name. As for the inside pages, given Liang Lu's current status in the photography industry, I don't think he can take the photos."
"It's all about human effort. Why don't you ask him first? Maybe it'll work," Ye Qing said calmly.
Although he was talking to Ye Shuang, Ye Qing's mind was still racing.
She was also thinking about what Ye Shuang had said earlier.
Ye Qing had just learned from Huang Fei that Jiang Xinya had returned as editor-in-chief and was now working for an even more prestigious magazine. This made Ye Qing think of the person Ye Shuang had mentioned.
His English name is Dalson, and his Chinese name is Li Bai.
Moreover, Li Bai's Chinese name was given to him by Ye Qing.
When Ye Qing first arrived abroad, he met Dalson, who kept chasing after him, which annoyed Ye Qing to no end. Later, in order to get closer to Ye Qing, Dalson asked Ye Qing to give him a Chinese name. To avoid the problem, Ye Qing casually said Li Bai, which was also relatively easy for foreigners to write.
Dalson liked Ye Qing, and liked her very much. Even though Ye Qing was already pregnant with twins when they met, he didn't care and went for it anyway.
Only when Ye Qing reluctantly showed him the marriage certificate did Dalson give up. Later, Dalson and Ye Qing became friends.
In fact, Dilson only truly let go of his feelings because Ye Qing actually got married, but Ye Qing didn't delve into that.
The truth is, Dalson saw Ye Qing's obsession with her husband, but he didn't tell Ye Qing.
Ye Qing had originally intended to call Dalson, but from Ye Shuang's words, she learned that Dalson had actually come to Nancheng to become the general manager of the magazine!
This is good news for Ye Qing, since if Jiang Xinya really goes too far and causes him trouble, then Ye Qing has connections.
After weighing the options, Ye Qing decided not to rush into making the call and to wait until Jiang Xinya actually took action.
However, what Ye Qing didn't know was that while she was talking to Ye Shuang about the magazine, the magazine was also discussing her.
As the editor-in-chief, Jiang Xinya also had many ambitions for the first issue of the magazine.
The general manager of a fashion magazine usually doesn't interfere too much with the editor-in-chief's affairs; the general manager's role is mainly to grasp the overall direction.
However, because it was the inaugural issue, Dalson also attended the meeting.
After listening to Jiang Xinya's plans and topics for the first issue of the magazine, Dalson didn't say anything else, but he rejected Jiang Xinya's idea for the cover shoot.
In fact, once it's rejected, it's rejected. Even if Dilson didn't attend the topic selection meeting, Jiang Xinya wouldn't naively think that the topic she proposed would definitely be approved. Even though she was the editor-in-chief, she would definitely listen to everyone's opinions fully for the inaugural issue and wouldn't tolerate any mistakes. So she prepared several topics.
After being rejected by Dalson, Jiang Xinya calmly prepared to present her alternative topics.
But to her surprise, Dalson didn't give her that chance and asked directly, "Do you have any stories about influential figures in the South City?"
Although Jiang Xinya had memorized all her chosen topics, upon hearing Dalson's words, she still subconsciously flipped through her folder before shaking her head: "No, because it's the inaugural issue, I think..."
Jiang Xinya was interrupted by Dilson before she could finish speaking, and she found it hard to accept what Dilson said.
