122: Arrange some work for Wen Yiyi
Xu Yao is ready to participate in the Huahu Talent Celebration.
After the guests received the invitation, Huahu announced the list of invited guests on its official account.
Xu Yao’s fans were very happy and felt that Xu Yao was very successful.
Most of the MCN agencies that have business dealings with Huahu are on the invitation list. Jiang Mingjia was not surprised to see Xu Yao's name, but Wen Yiyi felt that Xu Yao relied on Gu Jun to get in through the back door.
"Xu Yao has only been on Huahu's platform for a short time. Why invite her?"
"She's been around for a short time, but they still hired her. Of course, it's because she's so popular~"
Tangtang walked quietly and just caught Wen Yiyi red-handed when she was saying bad things while standing at the office door.
Wen Yiyi kept staring at Xu Yao every day, definitely because she was too idle. Tangtang decided to give Wen Yiyi some work: "Miss Wen, can you help me borrow a dress? Of course, it would be even better if you could help me find jewelry to match the dress!"
Wen Yiyi was puzzled, "Why borrow a dress? It's not like you can't afford it!"
"I want to."
Chen Yan reminded Wen Yiyi to be careful with her words, and Wen Yiyi tried to make amends, "I mean, the company can buy you a dress!"
Tangtang smiled, "Miss Wen, this is different. I can certainly afford a dress, and I can also buy jewelry if I grit my teeth, but this kind of dress can only be worn once. If I buy a new one every time, won't all my money go to buying clothes? The company can reimburse me this time, but do I have to ask the company for reimbursement every time?"
If it’s a one-time reimbursement, Wen Yiyi can make the decision. But if it’s reimbursed every time, Wen Yiyi won’t say anything.
Tangtang didn't let Wen Yiyi off. "Even if I had money, I couldn't buy a dress myself. You can still find news about last year's Huahu Talent Festival online. An internet celebrity bought a second-hand couture dress with her own money and was accused of being a knockoff. Later, the internet celebrity shared her purchase history, but public opinion didn't change. People kept saying she wasn't famous enough to borrow a dress. With that as a lesson, what kind of dress do you think I should buy?"
If it’s too expensive, it’s not worth it; if it’s too cheap, it’s not suitable.
The fashion contempt chain in the entertainment industry has unknowingly spread to the circle of internet celebrities.
Being able to afford a dress is not a skill. Being able to borrow a dress that others cannot borrow will make you looked up to.
Wen Yiyi suddenly understood.
Tangtang hesitated and said, "If it's inconvenient for Miss Wen, I can think of other ways——"
"Of course Yiyi can help you with such a small matter."
Chen Yan agreed on Wen Yiyi's behalf.
Wen Yiyi didn't think much about it.
Even if she didn't set up an MCN company, Wen Yiyi would still be a big-name client. She knew sales representatives for these big brands in Nancheng. With her spending record, wouldn't it be easy for her to borrow a dress?
Facts always slap you in the face.
Wen Yiyi asked around, but it really didn't work.
One of the salespeople saw that Wen Yiyi really didn’t understand, so he kindly taught her the process.
"Miss Wen, you can send us a request to borrow clothes. If your company's artists or the events they are going to attend are suitable for our brand's dresses, Miss Wen can bring them to try on the clothes. They can just return them after the event."
Wen Yiyi didn't expect that borrowing a piece of clothing would be so troublesome.
"Can't I just pay a deposit?"
“…That’s not possible.”
If it weren't for the fact that Wen Yiyi really has purchasing power, the salesperson wouldn't bother to say so much. It turns out this person doesn't understand anything at all!
Sales cautiously asked Wen Yiyi who she wanted to borrow the dress from, and Wen Yiyi said Tangtang. Sales' chat box did not respond for a long time. It was not until Wen Yiyi urged him that Sales gritted his teeth and told Wen Yiyi that it was basically impossible.
If internet celebrities want to wear designer dresses, they have to buy them with their own money.
Brands don’t need influencers to help promote their clothes.
To put it bluntly, the brand’s original target customers may not want to buy the dress worn by an internet celebrity!
Wen Yiyi was annoyed and showed the chat history to Chen Yan. "It's not that I don't want to help, it's Tangtang's own problem. She posted so many explicit photos online before, and now no brand is willing to lend her clothes!"
Tangtang was indeed famous for her sexy figure.
Chen Yan didn't know that borrowing a piece of clothing was so troublesome.
He's been very busy lately, and Wen Yiyi always comes to him with trivial matters like this, which annoys Chen Yan: "Yiyi, think of another way. I know you've never done these things before, and it's always difficult at the beginning, but it won't be difficult once you get used to it."
Wen Yiyi didn't want to be looked down upon by Chen Yan, and she hated Tangtang's distrustful look even more. She patiently sent clothing loan applications to major brands in Nancheng, but in the end, no one agreed to lend her clothes.
Wen Yi was furious.
If we refuse to lend to each of the two families, we will be disrespecting Tangtang.
No brand was willing to lend her money, which made Wen Yiyi feel embarrassed.
No brand agreed to lend her the dress, let alone the high-end jewelry. Wen Yiyi worked hard but still couldn't get it done. Tangtang urged her, but Wen Yiyi gritted her teeth and said she had borrowed it.
Tangtang was quite surprised. "You borrowed it? When can I go try it on?"
The talent show celebration is in three days. Tangtang's body size has changed a little after her pregnancy, so it's still time to change the size when she tries on the dress now.
"You don't need to go for a fitting. I'll have them send the dress to the company. You're pregnant, so it's better not to bother."
Wen Yiyi's thoughtfulness was unusual, and Tangtang was a little nervous. "Miss Wen, the dress you borrowed isn't a second-tier brand, right?"
"How could it be a second-tier brand? It's definitely a first-tier new model."
Wen Yiyi didn't borrow the brand's jewelry, but she did get some through other channels, so she wouldn't let Tangtang walk the red carpet with a bare neck.
Wen Yiyi actually accomplished what Tangtang asked.
The dress was new and the jewelry didn't look old either. Tangtang was quite surprised. Chen Yan glanced at the jewelry set in the box without revealing it to Wen Yiyi - this set of ruby jewelry was clearly his mother Guo Xianzhen's personal collection.
Forget it, it’s good enough that Wen Yiyi can handle the dress, we really can’t ask too much of her.
Chen Yan gave Wen Yiyi an encouraging smile, "I've always known that you're smart and learn things quickly, and it really is true."
Both Chen Yan and Tangtang were very satisfied with Wen Yiyi's performance, and Wen Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
That dress was actually... Wen Yiyi suddenly thought of Xu Yao.
Tangtang is a top internet celebrity and it’s so hard for her to borrow a dress. What will Xu Yao wear to attend the talent celebration?
You must either wear a small brand or buy a dress with your own money.
As for jewelry, she could probably wear fake ones on the red carpet. A good set of jewelry would cost at least hundreds of thousands, which Xu Yao couldn't afford.
Thinking that Xu Yao could only pretend to be rich to attend the talent show, Wen Yiyi was inexplicably happy again: if she could help Tangtang borrow Shen Yan's mother's jewelry, who could Xu Yao borrow jewelry from? Lin Meixian had sold all her previous jewelry and had no savings yet, so Lin Meixian could not help Xu Yao.
But it’s hard to say.
Lin Meixian still loves Xu Yao very much. Wen Yiyi is worried that Lin Meixian will shamelessly ask Mrs. Shen for Xu Yao, so she tests Lin Meixian when she returns to the Wen family.
Lin Meixian's eyes seemed to be able to see through Wen Yiyi's little thoughts. She smiled and asked Wen Yiyi, "Do you think I shouldn't help Yaoyao borrow Mrs. Shen's jewelry?
