Zhang Ningxi became an overnight sensation.
Someone posted the video and photos taken by their mobile phone at the scene on the school forum, and there are already hundreds of replies.
Her beauty has undoubtedly been recognized, otherwise she would not have been chosen as the new campus beauty. But everyone usually sees her wearing fashionable clothes, and never thought that she would be so stunning after changing into traditional clothes.
Because the video was shot by the audience with their mobile phones, there was no beautification using any beauty software. The most common comment in the post was that it was well-deserved.
The second most popular post was about asking the university to officially release a high-definition version. The student union responded urgently, stating that editing was in progress and it would be released tomorrow. The fact that several seniors in the software department worked overtime overnight was not worth mentioning.
The costume Zhang Ningxi wore during the performance also became a hot topic of discussion.
A classmate posted photos of Zhang Ningxi getting her makeup done backstage, as well as photos of her clothing boxes. There are many talented people among Jiaotong University students, and the identities of the two stylists were quickly revealed.
"Students, please read on. I found the information of the two stylists who did the goddess's makeup. I just want to ask, what family can afford to hire such stylists, and two at once?"
The great man listed the identities of the two aunts, the awards they had won, which stars they had dressed for on the red carpet, etc. In short, the point is that poor people can't afford them.
There was even a great god who guessed the origin of this suit from clues.
"Class, let me tell you something: the goddess's outfit is a high-end custom made by a top domestic clothing store. Most of us haven't heard of this store, but as for how amazing it is, their clothes are even harder to come by than Chanel's haute couture pieces for the high-end crowd. Especially the traditional Chinese-style clothing, which starts at five million Chinese yuan a set."
As soon as this post was released, it immediately sparked heated discussion.
Some people say that the poster is just making up stories to attract attention, and how could such a clothing store exist in China.
The great guy who posted the message immediately jumped out and said a lot of curses and oaths, and now everyone basically believed it. After all, it was an on-campus forum and they all had real-name authentication, and no one would curse themselves for something that didn't happen.
Then someone started to explain Chanel couture. First, whether you're buying or renting, if you're not high-end enough, they won't pay you. Second, a dress isn't cheap, and even if they rent it to you, they'll have to pay for any damages.
So assuming the requirements are the same.
Putting aside the eligibility requirements, they'd need at least five million in compensation and the ability to afford the exorbitant rental fees. Furthermore, even if an average person had that kind of money, could they even afford to rent a costume for a performance? So, everyone, go away. The goddess is beyond your reach.
Zhang Ningxi became famous but was not harassed at all, because everyone knew now that she should not have any unrealistic ideas before curing her poverty.
What's more, the blogger cut this performance into a short video and posted it on Douyin and Bizhan, earning a lot of likes and coins.
Zhang Ningxi had naturally seen the post on the forum, but she still felt it was a little unreal. Was the clothes she wore during the performance really that expensive?
When she first saw the clothes in the store, she knew they weren't cheap. She'd already inflated the prices, figuring they'd cost at least a hundred thousand yuan a set, but she hadn't expected the cheapest to be five million yuan. After all, when Si Mingyu and Aunt Zhao lent her the clothes, they hadn't even bothered to tell her to be careful not to get them dirty.
Roommates Du Xinran and Wu Tong, who had also read the post, came over and asked Zhang Ningxi in shock, "Is the suit you wore during the performance really that expensive?"
"What's said in the post is true. The clothes Ningxi is wearing are really expensive." Shen Chuyuan answered for her.
"Yuanyuan, your family is in the clothing business, so you know it, right?" Du Xinran should have guessed it.
"I didn't know it at the time, but after I got home I told my father about what happened that day, and then he told me." So Shen Chuyuan told her roommates what Shen Weian had said to her.
"Yuanyuan, since you knew the inside story, you should have told me. How can I afford such expensive clothes if they are damaged?" Zhang Ningxi is a little scared when she thinks about it now. After all, it was too expensive. Fortunately, everything went well.
"Ningxi, your worry is unnecessary. You and I may not know the price of this dress, but how could Si Mingyu not know it? Why would someone lend it to you if they were worried about it getting damaged or dirty? What we ordinary people think is valuable may not necessarily be valuable to others. In this case, why should I be the bad guy?" Shen Chuyuan understood.
"Who is Si Mingyu? Tell me quickly." Wu Tong's gossip fire ignited, and she immediately grabbed Shen Chuyuan's arm and asked. Du Xinran on the side also came over.
"This Si Mingyu, he is..."
Their previous experience at the clothing rental company was too bizarre, so they didn't tell their roommates. Now that Wu Tong asked about it, Shen Chuyuan told them the whole story.
"Does Si Mingyu like Ningxi and want to pursue her?" Wu Tong asked after hearing this. After all, why would he lend you such expensive clothes for no reason?
"Oh, don't talk nonsense." Zhang Ningxi blushed a little.
"I don't think so." Shen Chuyuan said.
"Why do you say that?" Du Xinran interjected curiously.
"I heard people chatting backstage that the New Year's Eve party venue decoration, lighting technicians, sound engineers, cameramen, etc. were all paid for by Si Mingyu. They estimated that the rental of the scenery and equipment, as well as the salaries of the personnel, would cost at least hundreds of thousands. Since he doesn't care about the money, it wouldn't be difficult for him to accept borrowing Ningxi's clothes." Shen Chuyuan analyzed.
"Although I don't want to admit it, I believe it now that you put it. I think he is simply rich and has nothing to do." Wu Tong thought this was very reasonable.
Si Mingyu provided such a great help to the New Year's Eve Gala, so logically the two hosts should at least mention it and express their gratitude. But since the hosts didn't mention it, it must mean that he didn't care and had specifically explained it.
For someone who spent hundreds of thousands without even leaving his name, it wouldn't be surprising if he spent another few hundred thousand to rent a set of clothes for Zhang Ningxi, especially since he borrowed them and didn't spend any money.
"I also think Wu Tong is right. He simply has a lot of money and is free." Du Xinran also agreed with his roommate's words.
Although Zhang Ningxi had messaged Si Mingyu to express her gratitude after the performance, she hadn't known at the time how expensive the dress was. Now that the post on the campus network had become public knowledge, she felt she should call him again.
I called but no one answered. I called again after a while and the same thing happened, so I had no choice but to send a message.
