Chapter 100: Become a celebrity
Charlie is very calm inside. He has confidence in "The Grandmaster" and is optimistic about the show.
However, the final result was still beyond his expectations. He had expected that "The Grandmaster" would be popular, but he never expected it to be so popular.
Unprecedented fire.
Especially among students, posters and stickers from The Grandmaster sold out. Students who didn't have a few Mingxu, Lan Xinya, or Zhou Bijun stickers in their notebooks were considered outdated and would be laughed at for being old-fashioned.
Even the students who liked Lan Xinya and Zhou Bijun were divided into two factions. They kept arguing about who was prettier, Lan Xinya or Zhou Bijun, and the argument was very intense.
There was also a heated debate about whether Mingxu loved Lan Xinya or Zhou Bijun.
What's outrageous is that any stationery in a stationery store that has pictures of Mingxu and Lan Xinya, or Mingxu and Zhou Bijun, printed on them will sell particularly well.
Even some small workshops like to put photos of these two couples on their backpacks to increase sales.
It can be said that this drama is extremely popular among students.
In addition to the student group, the response from the housewife group is also good. This can be reflected in the fact that many commercial performances have approached the crew. As a result, the crew has received many commercial performances, which has allowed the actors in the same group to increase their extra income.
As the broadcast of "The Grandmaster" is coming to an end, the finals of this year's Miss Hong Kong pageant are about to arrive.
However, compared to the intense popularity of last year's Miss Hong Kong pageant, this year's seems much more subdued. The outside world's attention to this year's Miss Hong Kong is also far less than last year.
Last year, in order to compete with Baozhu TV, Baogang TV specially arranged many talent show programs for many beauties, which received good responses and finally made an extremely beautiful comeback.
Therefore, this year, PT. RT-Mart continued with the same approach as last year, allowing contestants to showcase their talents in various aspects before the finals.
Although the idea is good, the result is hard to describe.
Program management noticed that this year's contestants not only couldn't compare to last year's in appearance, but also their level of hard work and perseverance couldn't compare. They deeply missed last year's contestants, who had fought tooth and nail, and who, before the finals, had a fierce determination to defy the odds.
The only advantage of this year's contestants is that there are enough of them, much more than last year.
But what good is having more people if there isn't a single one capable of fighting?
After the program department put on two talent shows, seeing that the ratings were not satisfactory, they canceled the show. Later, seeing that the contestants' training results were also not satisfactory and lacked any highlights, they simply canceled the semi-finals and went straight to the finals.
Hu Xiaoxiao received a notice from the program department asking her to record a segment about her past year as Miss Hong Kong, reflecting on her achievements and reflections. This segment would be played during her appearance at the Miss Hong Kong finals.
It was not difficult to record this part. All she had to do was report on the duties she had fulfilled after becoming Miss Hong Kong. Hu Xiaoxiao finished the recording quickly, and then began to prepare her attire and styling for when she went on stage to crown the new Miss Hong Kong champion.
When participating in the Miss Hong Kong pageant, the clothes are provided by the program team, but if you go to the awards ceremony, you have to prepare the clothes yourself.
Just as Hu Xiaoxiao was thinking about when to buy a dress, Miss Bai from Quanfu Jewelry came over.
"Ms. Hu, have you prepared the dress you will wear on the day of the finals?" asked Miss Bai.
Hu Xiaoxiao was puzzled by Miss Bai's arrival, but since she was a major client, she told her the truth: "I haven't made any purchases yet. I wonder if Miss Bai has any suggestions?"
Hu Xiaoxiao wondered if Quanfu Jewelry was worried that the clothes she bought were too cheap and not classy enough, affecting Quanfu Jewelry's image. Did Quanfu Jewelry really control its spokespeople so strictly?
Unexpectedly, Hu Xiaoxiao's random guess turned out to be correct.
Miss Bai said, "If Miss Hu hasn't prepared a dress yet, our company can sponsor her one."
Hu Xiaoxiao was overjoyed. A high-end dress was quite expensive. If she had sponsorship, she could save a lot of money. Quanfu Company was so good that she didn't mind being strictly controlled at all. "Your company is really generous."
Miss Bai saw what Hu Xiaoxiao was thinking and laughed, explaining, "Our company doesn't have much control over spokespersons. As long as there's no negative news and it doesn't affect Quanfu Jewelry's image, it's fine. I came here today and rudely interfered with Miss Hu's dress because there's a set of jewelry that she needs to wear that evening."
Hu Xiaoxiao didn't know what jewelry she would be wearing yet, thinking it was just a routine promotional activity. She said very professionally, "I'm very happy to be the spokesperson for Quanfu Jewelry. As long as I'm not dressed up like Santa Claus, any jewelry is fine with me."
It is only natural to take money from people and give them publicity.
"There aren't many pieces of jewelry, just a few." Miss Bai came prepared and directly took out a brochure of dresses from top international brands for Hu Xiaoxiao to choose from.
After Hu Xiaoxiao flipped through a few pages, she thought of a question, "Miss Bai, I need to see what type of jewelry I'm going to wear before I can decide what dress to choose."
Since we are promoting a jewelry company, the choice of clothes should focus on jewelry and then clothes, and try to show the beauty of the jewelry as much as possible.
Miss Bai said apologetically, "Miss Hu, I'm sorry, but I can't let you see the jewelry set right now. It's locked in the insurance company's safe, and the procedure for getting it out is very complicated. You can only see it on the night of the finals."
When Hu Xiaoxiao heard this, he knew that this set of jewelry was extremely valuable. He immediately became very alert and discussed with Miss Bai what to wear that night.
"Miss Bai, can you tell me about the design and appearance of that set of jewelry?"
"They are diamond jewelry. The most valuable one is a necklace. Its pendant is a rare diamond. It is very expensive."
Hu Xiaoxiao asked a few more questions and after getting the information she needed, she consulted Miss Bai for her opinion and finally decided to choose a strapless dress.
To wear jewelry well, the neck must be fully exposed. The jewelry pendant cannot be obscured by clothing. Hu Xiaoxiao made the jewelry the centerpiece of her look that night, and any clothing that would obscure the charm of the jewelry was off-limits.
The strapless dress itself is very versatile and is also very suitable for displaying jewelry. Choosing this dress can minimize the occurrence of unexpected situations.
In terms of color, Hu Xiaoxiao took into account the lighting on the stage and the effect of the jewelry under the light, and also chose the versatile black.
She also discussed the hairstyle with Miss Bai.
In short, all the styling and designs for that night were decided together with Miss Bai, so that Quanfu Jewelry Company could make the best plan, maximize the publicity effect, and achieve perfection in all aspects.
Finally, Miss Bai left with satisfaction.
