Chapter 284: Teach the Old Couple a Lesson

Just as Qi Sheng and his girlfriends were shopping crazily in Taikoo Li and IFC.

The entire fashion circle was thrown into an epic earthquake following the official announcement by the Prada Group.

Prada, a well-known blue-blooded luxury brand in the fashion circle, has been acquired by a Chinese consortium.

The Prada family did not disclose the specific details of the transaction.

But the total transaction amount reached a staggering 15 billion US dollars.

What is even more shocking to many people is that this acquisition is not like other luxury brand mergers and acquisitions.

Just the pulling would take a year or two.

Such a large transaction was completed in less than 24 hours, which can be called a lightning acquisition.

Compared with the mysterious Chinese consortium.

The LVMH Group family's acquisition of Tiffany seems particularly petty.

The market value of Tiffany and Prada is not much different.

LVMH Group formally proposed the acquisition in November last year.

Until now, I am still arguing with Tiffany over the price.

It’s great to see the Prada family sell themselves so happily and reap tens of billions of dollars in returns.

Tiffany also became jealous and issued an ultimatum to LVMH Group.

The total price is still the previously agreed US$16.2 billion.

Not even a penny less will do.

At worst, they will sell themselves to that mysterious Chinese consortium.

With the other party's terrifying financial resources, it should not be a problem for them to swallow up Tiffany Group, which is equal to Prada in size.

Qi Sheng just returned home after shopping with his girlfriends.

I had a two-hour video call with Shen Wan, a perfect-level talent who has led the team to take over the Prada Group.

A perfect-level talent recruitment card worth 1 billion yuan would naturally not be inflated at all.

Not to mention the Prada Group.

It is to merge all the luxury brands in the world together.

With Shen Wan's ability, he can manage everything in an orderly manner.

Not to mention, Qi Sheng also sent two master-level talents and one grandmaster-level talent specifically.

They are Xu Min, who serves as Chief Financial Officer, and Wang Zhao, who serves as Chief Human Resources Officer.

and Jason Chou, who serves as the creative director of the Prada Group.

Anyway, Qi Sheng had no shortage of talent recruitment cards, so he assigned Shen Wan a few capable subordinates.

This will make it easier for him to take charge of the entire Prada Group as soon as possible and inject new vitality into it.

Among them, Jay Chou has the greatest pressure.

The European and American fashion circles are inherently xenophobic.

As a Chinese designer, he naturally faces a lot of criticism and questioning.

The previous creative director of Prada was the heir to the Prada family.

He is an outsider, in charge of Prada's most important design department.

The pressure was enormous, but fortunately Qi Sheng gave him enough space to express himself freely.

But he has to hand in his design work by the end of February at the latest.

Participate in Milan Fashion Week, the most important fashion week in the entire fashion circle.

As a top luxury brand, Prada will certainly not miss Milan Fashion Week.

Zhou Jiecheng only had one month to prepare and come up with his design.

The samples are then produced by Prada's factories.

Then select suitable models and shoot global promotional films.

This pressure is enough to make many designers collapse.

But for him as a master designer, it is like a breeze blowing on his face.

Looking at the entire fashion circle, there is only Karl Lagerfeld who passed away not long ago.

And those legendary designers recorded in history are worthy of the title of masters.

How powerful is Karl Lagerfeld? At the peak of Chanel's career, it could even compete with Hermès.

Among luxury brands, it is the second most popular brand.

This shows how powerful he is! Zhou Jiecheng is a designer of the same level as Karl Lagerfeld.

The level will only be higher than the other party, not weaker than the other party.

Products produced by the system must be high-quality.

Not only is he capable, but he is also loyal to himself.

When Qi Sheng was video chatting with Shen Wan, he did not hide it from his girlfriends.

Among them, Gu Pan was the most excited.

"The Best of Us" will start filming at least in the middle of this month.

Since she had nothing to do, she ran to Chengdu to find Dong Bai.

As a result, she heard a secret that almost dropped her jaw.

The mysterious buyer who acquired Prada Group turned out to be her boyfriend? For a moment, Gu Pan felt a little dizzy.

Gu Pan came back to his senses, and happily came up to Qi Sheng, blinking his big eyes at him.

"What's wrong?"

Qi Sheng just hung up the video and saw Gu Pan like this.

It goes without saying that this girl must have something to ask of me.

"Honey, I want to be the spokesperson for Prada."

Gu Pan shook Qi Sheng's arm and started to act coquettishly and cutely.

Anyway, for Qi Sheng, it was just a matter of his words.

"Spokesperson?"

Qi Sheng pinched Gu Pan's little face, looked at her expectant expression, and shook his head helplessly.

"You're not famous enough right now. If I rashly give you the resources of a spokesperson, it will only backfire on you."

If virtue does not match one's position, disaster will surely occur.

At present, Gu Pan has less than one million fans.

Giving her the spokesperson status would do both Prada and Gupan no good but only harm.

Qi Sheng is determined to put Prada on a pedestal to compete with top luxury brands such as Chanel and LV.

Naturally, we will not do anything that will damage the brand image.

"All right."

Gu Pan pouted, knowing that Qi Sheng was right.

"Are you unhappy now?"

Qi Sheng scratched Gu Pan's nose with amusement.

“Even though we can’t give you a spokesperson, brand ambassador is still not a problem.”

“Brand ambassador?”

Gu Pan's eyes lit up, and she obediently let Qi Sheng rub her long hair like a cat.

"When Nothing But Thirty becomes popular, you will definitely be nominated for the Best Supporting Actress at the Magnolia Awards."

"At that time, Prada will officially announce your status as a brand ambassador."

"When "The Best of Us" is aired, you will have two hit dramas as a foundation."

"She is not a top-tier actress, but at least one of the most popular among second-tier actresses."

"When the time comes, I will ask Prada to select you as the brand spokesperson and help you become one of the top actresses."

Listening to Qi Sheng's orderly arrangements, and the caress of the man's big, bony hands.

Gu Pan felt particularly at ease.

Other female stars can't even dream of having resources.

She just needs to follow the steps to get it.

Don’t look at what is happening online; Prada has been smeared in various ways.

In reality, you give a girl Prada.

Not to mention playing poker directly, he can at least be listed as the number one bootlicker.

"Mua, thank you, husband!"

Gu Pan was satisfied and kissed Qi Sheng on the face.

"Just a kiss is not worth the resources of a global spokesperson."

Qi Sheng's light words made Gu Pan a little bit unbelievable.

"Honey, do you mean the global spokesperson?"

Gu Pan's voice was trembling; he was really overwhelmed by this surprise.

The levels of brand spokespersons usually start with the China spokesperson.

Next is the Greater China spokesperson, and then the Asia Pacific spokesperson.

Finally, there is the global spokesperson.

At first, Gu Pan just wanted to become Prada's spokesperson for China.

As for global spokespersons, those are resources that even the top stars can’t reach.

But how many top stars are there in the entertainment industry?

If those female stars knew this news, they would be jealous to death.

This is not a spokesperson for a certain product line or a certain region.

Rather, she is the global spokesperson for the entire product line.

For example, Reba became the global makeup and fragrance spokesperson for Dior.

Fans were so excited that they ran around telling each other the news.

But it is still one level away from the position of spokesperson for the full range of products given by Qi Sheng.

Even Reba, a popular star in the circle.

It is difficult for demanding luxury brands to give her the identity of a full-line spokesperson.

One can imagine how excited Gu Pan was.

"Hubby, I want you to love me hard~"

Gu Pan put her arms around Qi Sheng's neck with seductive eyes and whispered in his ear.

"That's more like it."

Qi Sheng naturally would not refuse Gu Pan's small request.

By the way, let her feel her new model after evolution.

…

"Xiaobai, save me!!!"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Gu Pan sent a WeChat message asking for help to Dong Bai, who was video chatting with his parents at home in his room.

If you didn't know, you would think something happened to her.

"Mom and Dad, I won't talk to you for now. Something's going on here."

Dong Bai hurriedly hung up the video and ran to Gu Pan's room.

"Xiaobai, you're the best, come and take my place."

When Gu Pan saw Dong Bai, it was like seeing a savior.

Suddenly he felt strong again and pulled Dong Bai onto the bed.

"You two are really horny in broad daylight."

Dong Bai's face turned red, but she looked at Gu Pan's pitiful appearance, feeling overwhelmed by the beating.

It's better to feed the tiger with one's own experience and help my best friend share some of the pressure.

"Xiaobai, you feel it too, right?"

Gu Pan looked at Dong Bai, who was gritting her teeth and trying not to make any sound, and asked while quietly biting her ear.

"Hmm...it seems to have gotten bigger."

Dong Bai was embarrassed to say it, but the feeling was extremely real.

"That's what I said. I was already used to it before, but you almost made me pass out just now."

Gu Pan muttered softly and glanced at Qi Sheng who was enjoying it.

I couldn't help but stretch out my little foot and kick him.

Not only did he not hurt Qi Sheng, but he was instead pinched and played with in the other party's hand.

"Hehe...I was wrong. It's so itchy."

Gu Pan kept begging for mercy, but soon his face turned pale.

There were waves in her eyes and she glanced at Qi Sheng coquettishly.

Not only did he let him play with it, he also started to chew it.

So perverted.

Even Gu Pan's generous and elegant personality could not stand it.

Pull up the quilt to cover the red little face.

Dong Bai also enjoyed the same treatment as Gu Pan.

“Itchy~”

Dong Bai couldn't help but stretch out her other beautiful leg to hook it around Qi Sheng's waist.

Gu Pan, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

"Xiaobai, when did you become so good at humming?"

Gu Pan felt that Dong Bai had changed a lot in just a few months.

"No way, don't talk nonsense."

Dong Bai rolled his eyes embarrassedly, but he did secretly ask Tang Qian for advice.

Under Tang Qian's guidance, Dong Bai quietly learned a lot of knowledge.

"Yes, I am embarrassed to say what you just called me."

Anyway, Qi Sheng was bullying Dong Bai at the moment, and she just happened to be watching the show from the side.

"Honey, look at her~"

Dong Bai begged Qi Sheng for help.

Who can stand doing intimate things with her boyfriend?

There was a person next to him with his chin in his hands, staring at it intently.

Even if it's a best friend, it's too embarrassing.

"Pan Pan, did you have a good rest?"

"Um?"

Before Gu Pan could react, he found himself being placed on Dong Bai by Qi Sheng.

The two of them looked at each other and turned their heads away in embarrassment and shyness.

Qi Sheng was no longer satisfied with walking on just one path, and began to walk side by side.

When Qi Sheng calmed down, Gu Pan and Dong Bai both rested their heads on his arms.

She twisted her body shyly around his waist.

Not only do they walk on two roads at the same time, but they also spit on each other.

What a lack of quality!

Qi Sheng was very satisfied with the new buff after the special value was maxed out.

He had a deep understanding of what it meant to have unlimited energy.

For Gu Pan and Dong Bai, the amount that Qi Sheng gave them was definitely no less than before.

What’s more terrifying is that the previous one has just been consumed.

After the two kidneys were warm for a while, they recovered to their full energy state.

Drained? Not happening.

After resting for a while, Dong Bai said cautiously.

"Honey, my parents just told me to go home early to prepare my graduation thesis after the New Year."

Qi Sheng smiled and nodded: "You have indeed been out for a long time this time. It is normal for uncle and aunt to miss you. I will say hello to Si Kang tomorrow and we will talk after you finish graduation."

"Don't bother Mr. Si. I'll just tell Director Sun."

Dong Bai waved his hand and quickly refused.

I don't have the nerve to disturb Pop Mart's CEO Si Kang because of such a small matter.

"It's good that you go back early. I plan to take you all with me during the Chinese New Year to give my parents a surprise."

Qi Sheng had been wandering around outside for a year, and the old couple at home had been nagging him a lot.

He also asked indirect questions to find out whether any accident had happened between him and Tan Huan.

What kind of accident could happen? I'm just thinking about holding my grandson.

Qi Sheng was too lazy to point it out to them.

It's a good opportunity to bring my girlfriends back home to show off in public, so they don't have to keep urging me to have children.

I thought of my parents being stunned when they saw more than 20 future daughters-in-law.

Qi Sheng couldn't help but laugh with a sense of evil humor.

"Hubby, I love you so much, mua!"

Gu Pan kissed Qi Sheng fiercely in surprise.

She envied Tan Huan so much because she could go to Qi Sheng's house to celebrate the New Year and visit her future parents-in-law.

Although she entered the industry late, it doesn't mean that her feelings for Qi Sheng are bad.

Now Qi Sheng finally spoke up and wanted to take them home to meet his parents.

Gu Pan suddenly didn’t even want to film the scene anymore.

She became a star simply to find something to do.

Plus, I’ve studied acting for so many years.

It would be a shame not to be an actor.

But compared to gaining the approval of Qi Sheng's parents, it doesn't matter how many plays he has acted in.

With a perfect boyfriend like Qi Sheng, I have more money than I can spend.

She has absolutely no need for the little money she earns.

"Can I go too?"

Dong Bai asked cautiously.

"Of course, you are all my girlfriends, you can all go."

Qi Sheng hugged the two women in his arms without hesitation.

"You can go home early to celebrate the New Year, and I will arrange a plane to pick you up then."

"Uh-huh."

Dong Bai and Gu Pan both nodded obediently and began to think about what gift to bring to the visit.

Qi Sheng is so generous to them and gives them pocket money of tens of millions.

When meeting Qi Sheng’s parents, I naturally can’t be stingy.

But I also have to say hello to other sisters to avoid buying overlapping gifts for each other.

As Gu Pan and Dong Bai spread the news that Qi Sheng was going to take them home.

Qi Sheng’s girlfriends rioted.

After confirming with Qi Sheng, they started buying plane tickets to go home and spend time with their families.

Qi Sheng watched them excitedly discussing what to buy, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Wouldn't he become a lonely person one month before the Chinese New Year?
