Chapter 582 I Choose You
Gao Min sighed as she spoke, "People should know their own limitations. If you rely on others all the time, they can lift you up, but they can also throw you down."
Ye Wanxi smiled to herself, thinking that some people will want to bring you down even if they have never praised you.
However, someone like Xiang Xiaoxiao, who has reached this point, will definitely suffer a more severe fall than others.
"To be honest, 'Caiwei' is really unlucky. They gave someone a resource when they were doing them a favor, but then it was suddenly canceled right before its release. Now they're in a real bind, they have to find someone to fill in as soon as possible."
Ye Wanxi touched her nose guiltily. As the culprit behind the previous affair, she seemed to have no right to comment on this matter.
Moreover, Xiang Xiaoxiao's removal at this time seems to be somewhat related to her.
"Go tell them that I'm free these days and can come over to film anytime."
"You answered?"
"catch!"
The responsibility that should be borne must be borne. Ye Wanxi hesitated before because she was worried that her rashly cutting in line might affect others.
But after learning that the person was Xiang Xiaoxiao, Ye Wanxi's concerns vanished instantly, and she even felt a sense of satisfaction from "bullying others with her power".
Serves you right for setting me up in secret, for having people smear me while I was away, for harassing innocent people for your own selfish desires!
Despite the pandemic, Ye Wanxi's popularity has actually increased. Caiwei magazine originally planned to discuss with her agent and even herself to create a special feature on her in the next quarter.
Unfortunately, plans don't always go as expected. When something happened to Xiang Xiaoxiao, they were in a panic and couldn't find her, so they contacted Gao Min on a whim.
After receiving a positive response, the staff of "Caiwei" were overjoyed and immediately asked Ye Wanxi to go to their headquarters early the next morning to shoot sample videos.
The next morning, Ye Wanxi and Gao Min set off early for the headquarters of "Caiwei". The person in charge of receiving them was a short-haired woman in her early twenties.
After the two parties finalized the contract details, the other party did not immediately sign the contract with them, but continued to talk to them about some personal topics unrelated to the cooperation.
A few minutes later, a middle-aged woman dressed in a suit and trousers, looking quite capable, pushed open the door and walked in.
As soon as the servant entered, Ye Wanxi felt his gaze fall on her, a look that was both scrutinizing and examining, but not in an offensive way.
"Hello, Ms. Ye, I am the person in charge of 'Caiwei' magazine, and my surname is Nie."
Both Ye Wanxi and her companion were taken aback by the other party's words.
As one of the most well-known women's magazines in China, the person in charge of "Caiwei" is certainly not an ordinary person.
Furthermore, given that the person before them was surnamed Nie and was of such a young age, the two of them didn't need to think much before guessing her identity—Miss Nie, the founder of "Caiwei".
The appearance of the person in front of them immediately added a touch of solemnity and caution to the meeting.
Ye Wanxi extended her hand to shake his, and said with a faint smile, "I've heard so much about you. Hello, I'm Ye Wanxi."
"I know that it is our honor that Ms. Ye has chosen to cooperate with us."
"Not at all, it would be my honor to cooperate with your company."
After the two exchanged perfunctory compliments, Ms. Nie turned to her short-haired assistant and asked in a low voice, "Is everything settled?"
"It's settled, here's the contract."
Ms. Nie took the original contract and pushed it in front of Ye Wanxi, saying, "In that case, let's sign it now."
Ye Wanxi nodded, and both parties successively signed their names on the contract, making two copies, thus finalizing the cooperation.
“It’s a pleasure to work with you.”
“It’s a pleasure to work with you.”
Ye Wanxi stood up and shook hands with Ms. Nie again. As they parted, she hesitated for a moment, then smiled and asked, "May I ask Mr. Nie a question?"
"You ask."
"Why did Mr. Nie choose me to be the spokesperson for your magazine's cover? In terms of generating buzz, I certainly qualify. But to be on the cover of your magazine, it's probably not just about meeting the criteria of generating buzz."
Gao Min complained that Xiang Xiaoxiao was not quite ready to be on their magazine, but in reality, wasn't she just as good?
In terms of popularity and sales ability, she may be slightly better than Xiang Xiaoxiao, but in terms of representative works, Ye Wanxi does not feel that she has an advantage over other female celebrities.
She was very curious as to why the other party had chosen her, and even went so far as to preserve the cooperation for several months just to wait for her.
Ms. Nie seemed surprised that Ye Wanxi would ask this question. She paused for a moment before laughing. She stared at Ye Wanxi for a while and said with a hint of regret, "Initially, I decided to use you because my girlfriends always bragged to me about how wonderful and outstanding their daughter-in-law is. I thought it would be such a pity if such an excellent girl didn't appear on the cover of my magazine?"
Daughter-in-law? Ye Wanxi's eyes narrowed slightly: "You..."
"But later, I realized that my understanding of you was far too shallow. You certainly did not disappoint her praise. The first choice for the cover of 'Caiwei' magazine is a successful woman with popularity and representative works. In this criterion, the words 'successful woman' are the key."
"As one of the most influential women's fashion magazines in China, Caiwei has always upheld the business philosophy of independence, freedom, and strength. Therefore, it mainly selects new women who are just as capable as men. Their existence is to tell the female fans who buy the magazine that women are not parasitic flowers, nor are they appendages of men."
"If they want, they can all be as independent and confident as these role models, live their own lives, and become radiant and charming. And I see all these qualities in you. That's why I chose you and will continue to choose you."
Ye Wanxi was stunned by the confident radiance she exuded when she said these words, and secretly thought that this was perhaps the unique charm of an independent woman who clearly understood what she wanted.
Ye Wanxi blushed slightly at the praise and said a little shyly, "I understand. Thank you, President Nie, for clearing up my doubts."
"Calling me President Nie is too formal. You can call me Aunt Nie from now on." As she spoke, Ms. Nie winked at her playfully.
“…Okay, Aunt Nie.”
"That's right. Okay, go shoot the sample photos. Xiao Guo, take them to Studio One."
"Okay, please follow me." The short-haired woman who had been called out led Ye Wanxi and the other woman out with a smile.
Gao Min was stunned by this unexpected turn of events. She walked out of the office and approached Ye Wanxi curiously, asking, "You know Miss Nie? How come I've never heard you mention it before?"
Ye Wanxi chuckled: "Don't tell me you haven't heard of it; I only found out today myself."
Gao Min opened her mouth, about to ask another question, when she suddenly heard footsteps coming from not far away.
