Day 55
"Boss? Boss!"
Lin Weiwei finally woke up from her dream at the sound of her assistant's call, and subconsciously turned off her tablet. The girl who called her tried hard to suppress the corners of her mouth that were about to curl up, muttering to herself, "Ms. Lin, there's no need to be so secretive."
Anyway, in the past two days, everyone in the world has been swallowed by the black hole named Fu Xunyan. As for whether they can quickly break free, it depends on their personal willpower and this damn job they have to go to.
The girl was busy with work today. After getting up, she looked at the slices five times again, forced herself to quit the addiction named Fu Xunyan, and hurried to work.
Ahem—Lin Weiwei rarely reveals her unprofessional side. She feels a little embarrassed and tries to cover it up with a guilty conscience.
"What do you want from me?"
The girl held up a tablet and said, "I'm here to report the data to you. It's Mr. Zhou's order. After the live broadcast the night before yesterday, the orders for mid- and low-end products exploded. Our inventory is far from sufficient, so we have to speed up production recently."
Lin Weiwei took the tablet and was surprised by the data on it.
"Fifty thousand orders?" Lin Weiwei swiped back to the product list in surprise, confirming that they didn't have any big sales last night, and the prices remained close to four digits as usual.
The girl pushed her glasses up. "Yes, we've accumulated over 50,000 orders as of yesterday morning, and people are still placing orders today. This effect should last until mid-week."
"That would bring the total to 80,000."
That’s a total sales volume of over 100 million!
Lin Weiwei quickly calmed down.
From the moment she signed Fu Xunyan, Lin Weiwei had confidence in his ability to sell products, but she never expected that before the ambassador even started promoting, people would spend huge sums of money just by relying on a completely unrelated stage.
The best-selling item is the co-branded vest they launched last night.
Well, it actually looks very simple, with only the silver chain on the chest being a unique design. However, such a thin piece of clothing was sold for 875 yuan.
As for the cost... That's how it is in the fashion circle. The cost of the fabric and the diamond in the necklace does not exceed 200 yuan, but the designer still takes 300 yuan, so the price is naturally expensive.
"That's strange. Doesn't he still have scandals?" Lin Weiwei logged into the official website's news interface. Their updates supporting Fu Xunyan had been squeezed to sixth or seventh place. This meant that President Zhou hadn't made any new moves to help Fu Xunyan. So why could people still ignore his scandals and place orders on Patrox?
The girl standing aside suddenly changed her expression. She scratched her fingers, as if wondering if her actions outside of her job would anger the ruthless Ms. Lin.
Finally, he stretched out his thoughtful little hand and slid on the tablet to switch to the "New Century" program interface.
Lin Weiwei shot with deep meaning.
"Oh, boss, I wasn't slacking off at work!" The girl raised her hands above her head and explained with a look of grievance, "I checked this when I woke up this morning. You can check the time record!"
Lin Weiwei waved her hands. "Alright, alright, you clown, what on earth do you want me to see?"
Lin Weiwei is very busy at work every day. The fashion circle is updating and iterating too fast. She has to spend a lot of energy to look at new fabrics, study new trends, and practice with old friends. Therefore, she does not have as much time and energy as these young children to chase the show.
Lin Weiwei would often only notice what was happening when it became a hot topic or someone around her pushed it to her.
Unfortunately, she had a multinational meeting this morning, so she didn't even make it to the hot searches.
The girl respectfully opened the new content updated last night for her.
Lin Weiwei glanced at it and saw the title was "New Century Idol: The Entertainment Bureau Extra Chapter." The long title read, "Fu Xunyan and Ye Lai put on makeup for each other, who will be the most beautiful woman?"
What does this have to do with anything?
Lin Weiwei, having been immersed in the fashion world for years, was quite receptive to men dressing as women. She just couldn't understand why Fu Xunyan and Ye Lai were vying for first place. Were they both perfectly beautiful? What was there to argue about?
For a long time, there was no sound coming from the office. The girl looked up in confusion and found that her boss was staring at her with a very calm but scary look.
She raised her hand to apologize, then bowed her body and humbly left the office.
"Hahaha look, look, I forgot I still have a report to finish. I'll go do it, hahaha."
After everyone left, Lin Weiwei clicked the play button.

"It's all your fault!" Ye Lai returned to his old ways. Whenever he was alone with Fu Xunyan, he would not hide his childishness at all.
Fu Xunyan tugged at his clothes, "Do you blame me? If you want to find the root cause, if you hadn't dressed as a woman to approach me, there wouldn't have been any problems later, right?"
Ye Lai held it back.
"Oh, and there's more." The young man in the dim room turned around, his eyes smiling, without any condemnation in his words, "I've been dragged into this by you."
"It was clearly stated that as long as you wear it, it's fine. But now you have a lot of buddies accompanying you to 'sacrifice your life for justice'."
Ye Lai had nothing more to say. He glared at Fu Xunyan's back angrily and snatched away the only and most conservative piece of women's clothing he was about to choose.
"I want this one, you can pick something else."
Fu Xunyan was helpless.
But that mink coat is backless.
So Ye Lai likes this style? I never expected that. The young man scratched his chin in confusion and continued to search for a suitable style among the pile of plus-sized women's clothing.
Since he was destined to cross-dress, he had to choose a good-looking one. After all, he wanted his fans to see a beautiful gender-transformed version of him, not some eye-catching version.
There was a burst of laughter and noise coming from the bathroom next door, and Jiang Han's scream at the top of his throat pierced his eardrums.
"Oh, what are you doing? I'm just doing skin care."
…
"Then you have too much leg hair! It's clogging the sewer!"
Fu Xunyan subconsciously looked at his smooth legs - just a few minutes ago, he also had hair removal done next door, ensuring that his armpits and legs, as well as his exposed arms, were well managed so as not to make people feel disgusted.
Actually, they should have chosen their clothes and then removed their hair as needed. However, Jiang Han, who did not participate in cross-dressing activities but was extremely enthusiastic about supervising, persuaded the production team to let everyone remove their hair under the banner of perfect idol management.
Although Jiang Han was beaten, the other trainees who participated in the event could not escape the fate of hair removal.
Fu Xunyan didn't feel uncomfortable about this. He did armpit care every week anyway, and this time he just added the legs.
**
Ten minutes later, several people looked at each other.
"Hi" Liu Yongshan excitedly waved her hand to greet people, and ran around the field excitedly, completely ignoring the drag of her floor-length skirt.
"Wow, I didn't expect Bai Zhen, you're actually such a beauty!"
Bai Zhen's face turned red all of a sudden, and he covered his chest uncomfortably. The little white dress given to him by the production team exposed a large area of skin there.
"Thank you for the compliment. You are the most beautiful." Bai Zhen retorted, but it was obvious that it did not hurt Liu Yongshan at all. Instead, it made him pretentiously twist into an S-shaped curve.
"Really? I think I'm super beautiful too!"
"No, I take it back." Liu Yongshan suddenly pressed the pause button and stood still, looking serious as if he was thinking about some national affairs.
"I think treasure hunting is the most beautiful thing. Well, I haven't seen it yet, but I firmly believe it!"
Bai Zhen pretended to be sad and performed a scene of a beautiful woman wiping tears.
Liu Yongshan could hardly contain his excitement. He walked among the people who had already changed their clothes, asking when they could start putting makeup on each other.
"Hehehe."
"Don't laugh like that, it's scary." Bai Zhen touched the goose bumps on his arm, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Feng Jiarui hesitantly.
"Can you put on makeup?"
Feng Jiarui smiled innocently, "I think I can do it, right?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhen immediately grabbed Liu Yongshan beside him and said, "Sister, I'll be your partner!"
Let Jiang Han and Feng Jiarui torture each other.
"The World's No. 1 Failed Confession" is a very interesting song. That's why the program crew used it as a raft to shoot an MV. The original creator of the song is a little-known band, who readily agreed after hearing that "New Century" was willing to shoot an MV for them.
As for whether it was a spoof or not, the band was very satisfied with the script of the program team, and felt that it was very creative and eye-catching.
"Please, that's Ye Lai and Fu Xunyan, they're going to dress up as women in our song!" The bassist clasped his hands together and prayed.
"Brothers and sisters, our wealth is coming!"
In this script, Jiang Han, who drew the male lead, has to play a loser who travels to different worlds to confess his love to girls.
The heroine of the first script is Bai Zhen, a fresh and clean campus girl. The second heroine is Liu Yongshan, a willful rich girl. The third heroine is Feng Jiarui, a cool and handsome big sister.
Well, the fourth female lead is the killer with long black hair, Fu Xunyan, and the fifth female lead is the mink-wearing rich woman, Ye Lai.
The program team deliberately changed the order of playback, putting the complete looks and timelines of the other four people before the MV was played. When it was Ye Lai and Fu Xunyan's turn, they did not wear wigs or women's clothing, but just put makeup on each other first.
Seeing that the powder puff was about to touch his face, Ye Lai couldn't help but grab the other person's wrist.
"My face is very expensive, so you must be careful."
I'm not kidding, Ye Lai is really serious.
Fu Xunyan found it a little funny, "Okay, rich lady."
After saying that, she squeezed some foundation on the back of her hand, then dipped a little and slowly put on makeup for him.
He... was too close. Ye Lai frowned and stepped back, but his chin was pinched. There was nothing unusual in those black pupils, only stubborn seriousness.
"Don't move. This is my first time putting makeup on someone. I don't want to leave a bad history."
Even if the painting is not good, I will be the one who leaves a black history... Ye Lai muttered in his heart, but his face never retreated again.
but……
"Liar, you were the one who drew the scar on Min Hai's face."
Hmm? Fu Xunyan remembered.
"Then let me correct my wording. This is my first time applying full makeup to someone."
The scent of cedar on the man slowly spread to his neck and forehead, slowly enveloping him.
The warmth of his little knuckles kept rubbing against his cheekbones gently. The distance was so close that Ye Lai could count the number of his eyelashes.
He held his breath, not wanting the air to stir the fine hairs on his face.
Ye Lai didn't know where to look, so he just looked around, but his sight was almost occupied by that face. At this distance, the pores on Fu Xunyan's face were extremely clear.
Ok, he has almost no pores, so jealous!
He didn't know how long it had been, Ye Lai only knew that if he continued like this his face would turn red. Just before the bad situation happened, he finally heard the man say okay.
Standing up after a long sigh, Ye Lai was the first to move his legs and feet to relieve the paralyzed nerves throughout his body.
Fu Xunyan was so angry that he laughed.
"Come on, I'm the one doing your makeup while standing. How can you be tired from sitting all the time?"
Ye Lai didn't listen. He stared at him for two seconds, then covered his ears with his hands and ran into the changing room.
Glancing at the full-length mirror at the door, he couldn't help but think that the guy was a liar.
Is this what you can achieve with makeup for the first time?
[Hehehe, sisters understand me...]
[Let’s get started! Get started! This distance, rounded up, is a kiss! I, Xun Ye, am rising today!]
[Tsk, what's so great about that? Brainless CP fans, go away. Fu has a girlfriend and he's still here, it's disgusting]
[I'm just gonna mind your shit]
[Wow, I want to do this too, but it really makes me uncomfortable. Why hasn't Fu Xunyan clarified yet? He's been down for four days!]
[Clarification? How can I clarify after all this evidence? Unless someone jumps out and tells me this woman is his relative and the diamond ring was a birthday gift (I can’t make this up anymore)]
[Really? This is the first time I’ve seen a diamond ring inside a hammer. Thor’s hammer is incredibly hard.]
In addition to the quarrel, the audience's attention was also focused on other things.
[Aba Aba, this man is not only more beautiful than me, but also better at putting on makeup than me]
[I don’t care about the talent show, but Mr. Fu’s technique really shocked me. He can do the same makeup tutorial video. I am such a replicant.]
[That is to say, even if she can’t make her debut, Fu Xunyan can still open a YouTube channel and become a beauty blogger.]
[Pooh, pooh, pooh, don’t say that in front of me!]
The scene then switched to the scene where Ye Lai was putting makeup on Fu Xunyan, but at this time Ye Lai had apparently changed her clothes, so the camera was placed in front of Ye Lai's chest, only shooting Fu Xunyan's face.
[Mom, I can’t breathe…]
[Appraisal completed, pure makeup]
[This is so beautiful, oh my god, it’s not that kind of powdery beauty, it’s more like the beauty of a supermodel or an actress]
[I understand, I understand!]
[My screen is already wet hahahaha, I mean, I licked it like crazy!]
[This is absolutely gorgeous, Ye Lai, you have to do your best! Don't do anything bad, or I'll scold you!]
But it is obvious that Ye Lai's hands are works of art that are meant to be displayed. He can apply nose shadow to his cheeks and poke eye shadow into his eyes.
Halfway through the transformation, Ye Lai's hand was grabbed and he lowered his head.
Fu Xunyan sighed, "If you want to murder me, just say so. There's no need to feed me a mouthful of cosmetics before I die."
