Chapter 204
He Chenghua's face was gloomy, his eyes fixed on his mother, which made Liu Fanglin's heart skip a beat. She pursed her lips and frowned, "Why did I go to her? Isn't it because of you?"
He Chenghua turned his head and asked, "Don't you need to worry about this?"
Seeing his attitude, Liu Fanglin felt even more unhappy. Thinking about Qin Xiang's attitude, he became even more angry. "You are deeply in love with someone, but she only sees you as an eyesore. Why do you have to be so self-deprecating and rush to her? Are we in the He family so spineless?"
Seeing He Chenghua remained silent, Liu Fanglin's attitude suddenly changed. He shouted, "Look at me."
He Chenghua looked at her sarcastically. "What am I looking at you for? Let me tell you, your son is so shameless and self-deprecating that he keeps chasing after a woman."
Without waiting for Liu Fanglin to speak, He Chenghua pursed his lips and said self-deprecatingly, "You're right. I'm indeed self-deprecating and shameless. Even though I know she doesn't like me and even feels disgusted with me, I still can't help but like her. As for what I like about her, I don't know. I only know that when I'm with her, I'm very happy. I feel like I own the world."
He knew very well that what he had done had ruined their relationship to the point where they could no longer be friends. If he hadn't spoken like that, hadn't been so extreme, perhaps they could still be friends.
But it's too late now.
After he finished speaking, Liu Fanglin burst into tears and covered her mouth, saying, "Child, she is not a good match. Even if she were with you, she would not get married. She has no plans to marry or have children. Whether it is you or Mr. Meng, it is not worth it to pay for such a woman. It is really not worth it."
However, it is really hard to say whether it is worth it or not.
In He Chenghua's heart, even just being in love with her for one day would be enough.
Although Liu Fanglin's arrival hadn't caused her any harm, it was still enough to upset her. After adjusting her mood, it was time to get busy with other things.
No one has the time to deal with this bullshit.
She needs to find someone to shoot the advertisement for Capital TV.
In fact, the best way is to find a popular star to shoot, but she doesn't have any connections in this area, so she can only find other people herself.
Hao Jingjing suggested to her, "Why don't you just go on by yourself? I think you're more suitable for this job than anyone else, and you look just as good as a celebrity."
This is not a compliment, but the truth. Qin Xiang looks particularly elegant in cheongsam-like clothes.
Qin Xiang shook her head. "Forget it. I'm the boss. I can't do all the advertising myself."
After saying this, Qin Xiang wandered around the art college of their school, but unfortunately he didn't find the right person. He then went to the Capital Academy of Arts and actually found a girl with an extraordinary temperament and beautiful looks.
The other party studied dance at the Art Academy. Her figure and the temperament in her every gesture were unforgettable at first sight.
Qin Xiang was in charge of finding the actors for the filming, while Mi Hongjun was in charge of finding the filming crew. They divided the work and worked together. For the first time, Hao Jingjing abandoned Mi Hongjun and came with Qin Xiang.
Then the two of them went up to explain their purpose, and the other party frowned slightly, "What's that for?"
Qin Xiang explained, "It's just about shooting a three-minute promotional advertisement and broadcasting it on Capital TV. As long as you're willing, we'll pay a portion of the fee."
It’s also because time is too tight, otherwise Qin Xiang would have wanted to spend money to organize a selection competition.
The other person's name is Yunna, and she is very moved when she hears this.
Hao Jingjing hurriedly introduced herself. "I'm a reporter for the national TV station. Since you're an arts major, you'll definitely need to perform in the future. So why not cherish this opportunity and let people see you? Maybe before you graduate, you'll be able to enter society and be known by the citizens of the capital. If this goes well, I can introduce you to someone like you next time there's a similar opportunity."
To be honest, Yunna has been to Qin Xiang's store and bought things there, but she never thought she would be chosen to shoot a commercial.
And the price offered by the other party is very attractive.
Yunna thought for a moment and said, "Students majoring in art must report to the school when they find work."
So she took the two of them to the college office, and Qin Xiang talked directly to the school's responsible leader.
They are all near the university town, and they actually know Qin Xiang's store. After all, it is very famous in the surrounding area.
Qin Xiang directly took out the contract plan she had prepared in advance, as well as the script for shooting a short film, "This is what I wrote in advance, you can take a look."
In order to verify her identity, Hao Jingjing also showed the other party her press card.
The leader looked at it and nodded, "That's right, but has Yunna agreed?"
Qin Xiang looked at Yun Na, and Yun Na said to her leader, "Director Cao, I want to try."
Since she has entered this circle, naturally everyone wants to be famous. Some of her classmates have already got some opportunities by relying on their family background and connections, but unfortunately she has never had a suitable opportunity.
Now the opportunity has come. Although it is only a three-minute short film, it is enough to make her heart excited.
Director Cao nodded and said to Qin Xiang, "You are well prepared. I have no reason to refuse. Yunna, go ahead and give it a try."
Yunna became happy, and a smile appeared on her cold face.
Qin Xiang next to her was stunned. Yun Na looked cold and quiet when she was silent, but she was so beautiful when she laughed.
She decided, it was hers.
Since the school leaders agreed, Qin Xiang struck while the iron was hot and signed the agreement directly in triplicate, one copy for each party and one copy for the school's records.
At the same time, Mi Hongjun also found the filming team with the help of Hao Jingjing, and brought them over for filming the next day.
Because Qin Xiang had classes that day, all matters were left to Mi Hongjun.
When Qin Xiang went over after class in the afternoon, she found out that the filming had already been completed.
Mi Hongjun said excitedly, "The filming went very smoothly. Every move she made was just right. It was excellent."
Mi Hongjun said with emotion, "How lucky we are! We were able to find the actors and shoot the film in such a short time. Once they have finished editing it, we can just wait for it to be aired this weekend."
Qin Xiang was also very happy. If the effect was good this time, she planned to continue using Yunna in the future. She just hoped that Yunna would not raise the price too much, otherwise she would have to find someone else.
In fact, Qin Xiang had other ideas, which was to film three groups of people at the same time, namely young, middle-aged and old people, and mix them together for playback.
This also produces better results.
Unfortunately, it is hard to find such a person. Even if someone is still so elegant in middle or old age, people probably won’t care about her trivial matters.
It’s already very good to find someone as suitable as Yunna to shoot it.
After rushing around, it was finally edited on Friday. Qin Xiang didn't even have time to look at it, so she took it directly to the Capital TV station to show the people there.
It was also at this time that Qin Xiang saw the finished film.
The commercial is only three minutes long. Yunna appears in a royal blue slim-fitting cheongsam, holding an oil-paper umbrella in her hand. She stands there and looks back gently. That scene is unforgettable.
In three minutes, Yunna changed more than ten sets of clothes, each of which was so beautiful that it was overwhelming.
At the end, a line of large characters flashed directly on the screen: "Xiangsi and you, you and Xiangsi."
Below this line is the store address.
The big red font shatters the elegant advertisement in front and is particularly eye-catching.
The more elegant the front is, the more old-fashioned the back is.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but cover her face, but she also agreed with this approach.
Because it is really conspicuous. Only in this way can more customers see her store. Otherwise, after seeing the advertisement, they still don’t know where the store is, which is a waste of time.
Qin Xiang said with a stern face, "Well, it's good. Let's leave it at that."
At that time, the advertising process was not so strict, and with the help of internal staff, it was approved the next day. At this time, there was only one day left until the weekend.
On Sundays, Qin Xiang waited on the second floor of the shop, turned on the TV early and waited.
The 7 o'clock show has always been an important moment, and the advertisement after the news is particularly important.
In addition to Qin Xiang, the shop assistants from the wholesale city also came over and waited to see the advertisement.
As soon as 7:30 arrived, Qin Xiang immediately sat up straight. When the advertisement came out, some people around her took a breath, and He Liping murmured, "It's so beautiful."
She is indeed beautiful. Yunna’s beauty is too cold, which makes her very suitable for shooting clothes like cheongsam.
He has an extraordinary temperament, and his movements and expressions are just right. He is a natural actor.
The ad was only three minutes long, and everyone was very happy after it was over. "I think it's very good. At least I've never seen such a good-looking ad."
"Yes, our store will definitely be packed with customers tomorrow."
Everyone was talking about it, and Qin Xiang was also thinking with his chin in his hand. This advertisement was not broadcast for one or two days, but for half a month. Although the price was very expensive, it was worth it.
If the effect is good, she wants to find someone to shoot the advertisement for "Xianglian". "Xianglian" is positioned at young women who want youth and vitality, so the choice is wider.
The finished films can also be released to the city where the branch is located, which saves a lot of trouble.
However, "Xiangsi" is positioned as high-end, so even if the advertising effect is good, the impact is limited.
It is true that many people come here because of its reputation, but more of them come to join in the fun and see the beautiful clothes on TV.
Very few people actually pay for it.
The three shop assistants were a little anxious. When Qin Xiang passed by at noon, they hurriedly said, "A lot of people came, but most of them looked, but few bought."
Qin Xiang nodded, "It's okay, just take your time. I guess those who really want to buy are afraid of the crowds, so they avoid it. Let's wait and see."
It was not until around five in the afternoon that some people dressed very elegantly and tastefully began to arrive one after another. Qin Xiang was shocked, as this was the potential customer group.
Qin Xiang rarely entertained customers in person now, and only sat at the cashier to watch the three people serve. As expected, the two women who came shopping arm in arm each tried on clothes and bought two pieces each.
A store like hers should either not be opened, or even if it is opened, it may not be able to make a profit for three years, but the profit will still be considerable.
After seeing off the two customers, the three shop assistants couldn't stop smiling.
After a while, more guests came and brought one more or less.
Nowadays, most people still earn 30 or 50 yuan a month, but some people just don't care about money.
Because of the opportunities of the times, some people ride the wind and waves, make a lot of money, and their wives, children, and even mistresses also become rich.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the store closed. Qin Xiang calculated today's turnover, which was more than four thousand, which exceeded expectations.
Compared to the profits, the cost of shooting the commercial is simply not worth mentioning.
Labor costs are cheap, which means the cost of equipment and other things is higher.
Because of the traffic diversion at the 'Xiangsi' store, the 'Xianglian' store also welcomed a peak in customer flow the next day.
Qin Xiang couldn't wait to see the subsequent impact, so he found Mi Hongjun the next day and talked about continuing to shoot the commercial.
The two brands have different positioning and must be promoted separately. Today's televisions can only receive a limited number of channels, and those who can afford to watch television are better off than ordinary families, at least with a certain level of purchasing power.
Qin Xiang went to find Yun Na again, hoping that she could help recommend a few suitable female classmates as actors in the new promotional video.
Because of filming this commercial, Yunna became famous in school and gained both fame and money. Yunna was very grateful to Qin Xiang for giving her the opportunity.
As soon as Qin Xiang said that, Yun Na agreed and immediately took her to find her classmates.
Many of the people who can enter art colleges are beautiful.
Yunna recommended three students, and Qin Xiang was hesitant about which one to choose after talking to them. They were all very outstanding and had strong professional knowledge.
There was no other way. Qin Xiang thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll have someone come to meet you tomorrow and give you the address. Go there for the audition and we'll use whoever is suitable. As for those who are not selected, we'll reimburse the round-trip transportation costs."
As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them no longer had any concerns and were all eager to try it out.
The next day, Qin Xiang was in class. Mi Hongjun came and took them to the audition. They shot several takes and waited for Qin Xiang to choose a suitable person.
Qin Xiang rushed over after class at noon. After looking at all three, she was a little dissatisfied.
Although the three of them performed well, with Yunna as a shining example, the other three seemed a bit mediocre. It’s not that they are not pretty or their performances are bad, but there is a gap when there is a comparison.
But now it was almost November and time was tight, so Qin Xiang chose the best one and asked Mi Hongjun to keep an eye on it and make sure it was taken better.
Although the other two felt disappointed, they were subsidized for round-trip transportation and did not suffer any loss.
Qin Xiang gave them the address of her store, hoping that they would have the opportunity to cooperate in the future.
After sending the two away, Qin Xiang went to watch the re-shooting of the selected girls.
The more she looked, the tighter her brows furrowed. When they took a break, Qin Xiang went over to chat with her, "Are you still a little nervous and can't let go?"
The girl's name is Li Xiulian. She nodded and said, "Yes, I get a little nervous when facing the camera."
"I see." Qin Xiang said, "The camera is a dead object. Just pretend you're practicing in the training room."
Li Xiulian hesitated, then nodded and said, "Then I'll try again."
When reshooting, Li Xiu Lian was very devoted at first, but she couldn't find a good shot.
After several experiments, I finally found the most suitable angle.
Qin Xiang finally breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Li Xiu Lian becoming more and more relaxed.
But Qin Xiang was still not very satisfied with the shooting results.
The next two days were spent filming again.
At least it made a good commercial.
After the film is completed, it will be edited into a three-minute commercial.
Qin Xiang took him to Capital TV Station to discuss cooperation again. The time was still the same. They just had to wait until the "Xiangsi" advertisement was finished before broadcasting this one.
Qin Xiang was about to make a few copies of the ad, but Hao Jingjing said bluntly, "Why not just air it on national TV? Audiences across the country can see it. And the 7:30 ad has the most viewers. Why? Because it's right after the news, and everyone likes to watch the news and learn about national affairs."
Qin Xiang thought about it and decided it was a good idea. This would save a lot of trouble. She wouldn't have to go to each radio station one by one to ask for the money. She could just pool the money together and broadcast it directly to the national station.
With Hao Jingjing, an insider, leading the way, all the procedures were completed quickly.
Of course, the price is really expensive.
But at this time, Qin Xiang only saw the profits after the broadcast. After a quick calculation, he signed the contract and paid the money without any hesitation.
At this time, Qin Juan also came to Qin Xiang with a smile, "My store will open on Saturday, the day after tomorrow. How about it, big boss, welcome."
