Yan Mofei was very calm: "Me? You know I am..."
"Of course I know. Although you're still only an 18th-tier celebrity in the entertainment industry, your looks are unique and perfectly fit our magazine's ideals of beauty and handsomeness."
"It doesn't take long to take a photo shoot. Two or three days will be enough. If you have time, I can have a long conversation with you offline."
Yan Mofei raised an eyebrow. There wasn't much information about him online to begin with, and only a few internal employees knew about it. Now with the support of the system, anyone who wanted to investigate him would be prevented.
All he knows is his own deeds in the entertainment industry.
But as the young boss of the Yan family, going to shoot for a rival magazine...
Yan Mofei didn't hesitate at all and agreed directly: "Okay."
Although Qingyang and Hongyue are competitors, they are taking completely different paths.
Hongyue, a long-established magazine acquired by the Yan family, had been established for nearly a century. In the days of newspaper dominance, Hongyue prospered. However, with the rise of the internet, Hongyue stagnated and gradually declined.
Someone under Yan Mofei took a fancy to this magazine and proposed to Yan Mofei to buy it. After Yan Mofei's reform, although it has not reached its previous peak, it is still thriving.
It is mainly a traditional story-telling magazine with wonderful illustrations.
There are two types of magazines. One type is in limited supply and the price is far higher than that of ordinary magazines.
The writers and illustrators hired by this type of magazine are all top-notch in the country, and the apprentices they train are also very innovative. The pictures and story layouts in each issue are extremely collectible.
There is also a regular one that is affordable and occasionally has some small surprises on it. It is also very popular.
Qingyang, however, took a new approach, using the most eye-catching celebrities or wealthy individuals as selling points. Inviting these people to pose for magazine covers or to do interviews with them was equivalent to attracting their fans to come and spend money.
Therefore, every issue was bought up by everyone.
I don’t know what’s wrong with him this time, he actually wants to invite an 18th-tier star like Yan Mofei to shoot the cover of the magazine.
"Are they really not afraid of losing money?"
Yan Mofei doesn't care whether his rivals will lose money or not. He is now able to make money from his rivals. In some ways, he can be considered a successful star.
In a high-end coffee shop, Yan Mofei entered the private room, but he didn't expect that not only the deputy editor-in-chief he had contacted was there, but also another one.
The other party is a veteran first-line singer who has debuted for more than ten years. He is currently in his thirties, but looks very young. At first glance, apart from his thin figure and pale face, he is still very smart and good-looking.
"Senior Dan Cui."
Yan Mofei greeted him, but the other party didn't act like an old senior at all. When he saw him coming, he actually stood up and shook hands with him.
"Hello, Yan Mofei."
She was wearing makeup, and her face looked a little haggard, so she used a lot of foundation and bright lipstick to cover it up. But her eyes still showed fatigue.
Yan Mofei glanced at the deputy editor-in-chief, who shook his head. He had not informed either side and just wanted to invite the person over first to talk.
After all, the gap in status between the two people is too big, and they are afraid that one party will disagree and the other party will feel inferior.
If Yan Mofei knew that the deputy editor-in-chief would think he was inferior, he might have looked up the dictionary in front of him to see if there were these two words.
"Senior, do you know me?"
Dantui nodded. Her cheeks were a little sunken because of her thinness, which made her already big eyes look even bigger.
Her voice is also very distinctive, so as soon as she opens her mouth, everyone can tell it is her singing.
The reason why she didn't become a top star was simply because the capital behind her did not support her, but instead spent money on another female star.
"I've seen your TV shows and variety shows, and they're both very good. You have a promising future ahead of you."
Yan Mofei was rarely flattered.
"Thank you for the compliment, senior. I'm just an 18th-tier talent."
"That's because you haven't really exerted your strength yet."
What a keen eye.
The two of them exchanged pleasantries, each praising the other. The deputy editor-in-chief next to them was also quite the seasoned expert, not only able to butt in on their conversation but also quietly flattering both of them before steering the conversation back to the purpose of their visit.
"Our magazine is currently doing a sister-brother cover. I think you two are both very photogenic, so I'd like to invite you two to shoot a sister-brother cover together."
"This is the salary offer for you two. Please take a look and feel free to share any comments you have."
Yan Mofei took the folder pushed by the deputy editor and took a look at it. He found that the salary offered to him was not only not low, but also very high.
"This reward..."
"This reward..."
Yan Mofei and Dan Cui spoke at the same time, and they looked like brother and sister before the filming even started.
The deputy editor-in-chief couldn't stop smiling.
"Our magazine invited you two with the utmost sincerity. The makeup artists we hired are both nationally and internationally renowned and will create tailor-made looks for you two."
"Don't worry, photographers. The photographers at our magazine are all very skilled. If you have any good photographers, you might recommend them to us. The price is negotiable."
Yan Mofei couldn't help but ask, "What's the standard for your compensation?"
The deputy editor-in-chief said righteously: "We always look at faces, so naturally we judge based on appearance."
Very good, he has no problem. Although this money is far from enough to match his face, it is the highest standard among the conditions offered by others.
Soon, the three of them reached an agreement and signed the contract.
There happened to be nothing going on on the crew, so he could focus on preparing for the magazine shoot these days.
The deputy editor happily took the contract back to prepare. Yan Mofei said hello to Dan Cui and got into the car.
He lay down and rubbed his eyebrows.
Yang Xiaoli immediately came over and said, "Boss, are you tired? Let me give you a massage."
"I'm not tired, it's just that although this cafe is high-end, the food is terrible. Let's find a place to eat."
"Boss, there's a Chinese restaurant nearby with lots of beautiful spots to check out. I see everyone is going there..."
"Well, let's go there. Lao Song is the navigation."
Yan Mofei sat down to rest, and Yang Xiaoli looked back through the car window.
"Boss, why hasn't that sister left yet? Doesn't she have a car? Should we give her a ride?"
Yan Mofei also glanced back and saw Dan Cui still standing there, extending her hand from time to time, probably trying to hail a taxi. However, it was rush hour, so most taxis were already full.
In addition, Dan Cui's dress was strange, so probably not many people would want to give her a ride.
"A-list celebrities, don't have a private car?"
At this moment, a middle-aged woman suddenly ran out from both sides. Dan Cui took a few steps back awkwardly, but was grabbed by the woman's hand.
The other party said a few words in a very fierce tone. Dan Cui took out a card from her body, but the other party snatched it away. Then he said a few more words and walked away triumphantly.
Dan Cui stood there, head slightly lowered, her whole body revealing her low mood.
