“An engineer in the fashion industry?” Zhou Jingyi smiled, “I think Rick must have a good time with you.”
“His working environment, he can see many beautiful women, and he can do what he likes and is good at. Of course, he has a very good life.” Xiao Yao smiled.
“No wonder he stayed in China for a long time and didn’t want to return to the United States!” Zhou Jingyi said, “I don’t know what he is like now, I can’t wait to see him!”
“Soon!” Xiao Yao stopped the car, the human in the car, “Everyone, here it is!”
Zhou Jingyi glanced out of the car window and found that Xiao Yao had parked the car next to a building, obviously he had reached his destination.
“Model agency?” Zhou Jingyi got off the car and saw the company’s name and logo hanging next to the building gate, and asked Xiao Yao strangely, “Isn’t Rick working in your personal branding studio?”
Zhou Jingyi already knows Chinese, not to mention that the company name is written in both Chinese and English. Zhou Jingyi can naturally see the nature of the company in the building in front of him at a glance.
“Rick doesn’t work in my personal brand studio. The brand belongs to me and Yin.” Xiao Yao corrected Zhou Jingyi before saying, “That brand studio is part of Yin’s personal studio. Yanjing. This model agency often cooperates with Yin’s studio. This time we borrowed their place and arranged for you to try on dresses here!”
“OK!” Zhou Jingyi nodded.
“Let’s go!” Xiao Yao led everyone into the building in front of him.
Xiao Yao, Zhao Rui and others came here two days ago to try on dresses, so as soon as he walked in, the two front desks immediately recognized them.
“Little Boss!” Seeing Xiao Yao walking in with someone, the two young girls at the front desk immediately smiled and stood up and said hello.
This model agency is naturally Xing Donglin model agency.
In line with the principle of “no water flow to outsiders’ fields”, at the first press conference of Yin Xi and Xiao Yao’s co-branding, Xiao Yao was the model invited from Xingdonglin Model Company. Since then, Yin Xi’s studio has had a lot of cooperation with Xing Donglin Company. Yin Xi’s studio did not sign a model, and when he needed a model, he basically looked for someone from Xing Donglin Model Company. Of course, Xiao Yao’s reason is naturally indispensable for the close cooperation between the two companies.
Although he rarely appeared in the model company in recent years, Xiao Yao’s presence and topic level in the model company are much higher than Xiao Siqi back then.
On the one hand, even if Xiao Yao did not show up, he actually helped the models in the company to take over projects directly or indirectly. On the other hand, Xiao Yao’s topicality on the public level is much higher than Xiao Siqi’s. When he is fine, he will go to a hot search. People in the company will talk about him from time to time when chatting about gossip entertainment news. In this way, the fact that Xiao Yao is a shareholder of the company is unlikely to be forgotten or ignored.
At any time when Xiao Yao came to the modeling company, it would never happen again that Xiao Siqi brought Xiao Yao into the company and was stopped by the front desk. Since there is still an anecdote in the company that Xiao Siqi brought Xiao Yao to the company for the first time and was stopped by the front desk, several front desks were even more enthusiastic and active when they saw Xiao Yao than the two big bosses of the company.
“Little boss? Are you the boss of this model agency?” Zhou Jingyi looked at Xiao Yao and said, “Don’t tell me that these two reception girls are from Miss Yin’s studio!”
Except for Zhou Jingyi, who is of Chinese origin, the four members of the band also understand Chinese now. Although the speaking is not standard, there is no problem in listening. Even if the two front desk girls spoke Chinese, they all understood.
“Young, are you the boss of this company?” Dean and others also called out.
When he was an exchange student in the United States, Xiao Yao only told Dean that their father was a musician. Later, through some things, Dean, Zhou Jingyi and others came to know that Xiao Yao was a photographer. A member of the parkour veteran team. After Xiao Yao returned to China, they learned that Xiao Yao had a personal brand, a musical instrument company, a personal studio and a film and television company, and he was an actor and a director. However, from beginning to end, they never knew that Xiao Yao was still the boss of a model company.
“I am a shareholder of this model company, and I can be regarded as one of the bosses.” Xiao Yao nodded, “but my share of shares is not very high. I don’t have a specific position here. I don’t intervene in the operation of the company. I rarely come here. !”
“Yin Xi’s team is here, right?” After a little explanation, Xiao Yao asked the two girls at the front desk, “Where are they? Is Miss Yin Xi here?”
“Come!” one of the girls nodded, “Do you need me to take you there?”
“No need, I know the place!” Xiao Yao shook his head, “But Zhao Rui will bring some other people over in a while, and I will trouble you to take them to the place where Xi Si’s team is at that time.”
The group of them came here in several cars. Xiao Yao drove faster. Zhao Rui, Mu Ying and others were behind. Before they arrived, Xiao Yao was not ready to stand at the door and wait for them.
“I see, little boss!” The two girls nodded together.
Zhao Rui and Xu Fei have also been here these two days, and the two little girls at the front desk have known each other.
“Okay, let’s go in first.” Xiao Yao waved goodbye to the two front desks, and walked inside with Zhou Jingyi and others.
When I came to the modeling company two days ago, Xiao Yao found that people in the company still liked to call him “little boss”. He was unhappy and corrected it several times, saying that he is no longer young. But as soon as Xiao Yao said it, those guys smiled and said that they were called “Boss Xiao”, not “Little Boss”. Xiao Yao does not have a position in the company, and there is no excuse for them to change their name to “Mr. Xiao”, so they can only let them go.
“The scale of this model company seems to be quite large,” Dean exclaimed on the way in, “I didn’t expect you to be a shareholder of such a model company. No wonder you know Betty and have such a good relationship with Eva!”
“No!” Samien shook his head. “We heard Keith say that Young went to the Eva show for the first time, and he was only ten years old when he met Betty. His relationship with Eva also knew Betty. It has nothing to do with this model agency.”
“Actually, it has something to do with it.” Xiao Yao said, “When I was ten years old, I was able to go to the Eva show because of the recommendation of my photography teacher Thiel. I know Thiel in this company and can become his The students are also because of this company’s project, so I can go to the Eva show and meet Betty, which has a lot to do with this company.”
As for the company’s affairs, Xiao Yao didn’t take the initiative to mention it because he didn’t want to show off, but he didn’t intend to keep it secret. Hearing them mention it, Xiao Yao took the initiative to explain it.
“This company’s project?” Dean guessed, “You were a model when you were a kid? Because you met Thiel here, so after you became famous, you invested in this company and became the owner of this company?”
“No, my biological mother left me the shares!” Xiao Yao shook his head. “My biological mother is a model. She co-founded this company with two bosses here. After her death, the shares were owned by My father is in charge. After I became an adult, my father officially transferred all the shares to me! When I was eight years old, my father didn’t want to come here anymore. He wanted me to exercise shareholder power on his behalf, so he brought me here, and then I I met Thiel.”
“When I was eight years old, I exercised shareholder power on behalf of my father?” Dean and others looked at Xiao Yao in surprise, “What are you talking about?”
“Actually, there is nothing to do. My father and I have no intention of participating in the company’s operational decision-making. They just participate in the company’s shareholder meeting once a year!” Xiao Yao laughed, “I also found an agent later, so I didn’t come too much.”
“Little boss!”
A young woman holding a folder with a work card hanging on her neck passed by Xiao Yao and his party, stopped to greet Xiao Yao with a smile, and smiled politely at Dean and the others. After Xiao Yao smiled and nodded in response, the young woman left in a hurry again.
“But I think the people here seem to be familiar with you, and very close to you!” Dean pointed to the young woman who had left.
Along the way, Dean and others have discovered that not only those with work badges, but those who seem to be employees here will basically stop and smile and say hello to Xiao Yao when they pass by and meet them. It is just that they are dressed in fashionable and beautiful clothes. The same goes for people who don’t have a work license.
“That’s because I am the boss, but I am not in charge of specific affairs, regardless of them,” Xiao Yao laughed, “Also, I am a star, very famous in China, of course they like me!”
“Okay, here it is!” Dean wanted to say something, but found that Xiao Yao had stopped and opened a door.
“Rick, your old friend is here, how are your clothes?” Xiao Yao shouted after entering the door.
“Gold!” With a happy cry, a young man rushed over excitedly.
“Rick! Long time no see!” Zhou Jingyi also happily greeted her and gave the young man a big hug.
When Zhou Jingyi and Ruihe hugged, Xiao Yao looked up and beckoned to the two young women in the room.
“Okay!” After Zhou Jingyi and Rick separated, Xiao Yao waved his hand, “You two have to relive the past. You should have a lot of time. Let’s talk about business first!”
“I’ll introduce you to you,” Xiao Yao pointed to one of the two young women who came by. “This is Pei Minyi. You should have seen it all. But she is no longer my assistant, but one. A stylist, she is responsible for your makeup and hairstyle this time.”
Pei Minyi has established her own studio, this time she was hired by Xiao Yao in a cooperative way.
“This is Qiao Shan, the chief designer of our brand. She and Rick are responsible for your dresses.” Xiao Yao pointed to another young woman.
“This is Kimberley Zhou, this is Samien Smith, this is…” Xiao Yao introduced Zhou Jingyi and others.
Rick used to be a member of the “Whitewater Dance Company”. When he participated in the National Street Dance Competition, he had contact with all four members of the band. When Pei Minyi was Xiao Yao’s makeup artist and personal assistant, she participated in the finals of “Singer” and also participated in the shooting of parkour movies, so she was familiar with Zhou Jingyi and the four members of the band.
Although the band’s lighting clothing in the final of “Singer” came from Xiao Yao’s brand studio, the performance clothing was only five jackets, not tailor-made. When Xiao Yao took the band members to visit the studio, he met Qiao Shan, but there was no exchange. As for Zhou Jingyi, Qiao Shan saw it for the first time. Therefore, in this introduction, Xiao Yao mainly introduced Qiao Shan to Zhou Jingyi and others.
“Sister Xi is here?” After waiting for the people on both sides to greet each other, after they met each other, Xiao Yao whispered to Qiao Shan again.
“Here, those people are here too!” Qiao Shan nodded.
“Okay!” Xiao Yao nodded, and said to Zhou Jingyi and others, “The three of them are responsible for the style of the dress you attend the awards ceremony. If you have any problems, talk to them and solve them. I need to leave temporarily!”
“Where are you going?” Dean asked.
“It’s here, it’s just another room,” Xiao Yao said, “In addition to you, there are some Chinese stars who want to try dresses here. Those people’s dresses are also made by our brand, and Yin is entertaining them now. I need to go over and take a look, meet them, and say hello to them!”
“Trying on dresses here too?” Zhou Jingyi asked, “What a coincidence? It’s not for the awards ceremony tomorrow night, right?”
“Yes!” Xiao Yao nodded, “It is indeed the dress for the award ceremony tomorrow night!”
“So you didn’t just prepare the dress for us to attend the award ceremony!” Dean said.
“It’s not me, it’s us!” Xiao Yao first corrected, “It is Yin’s and I fashion brands that make dresses and designs for you, as well as Pei’s studio. I am not alone!”
“Also,” Xiao Yao continued, “You don’t need to spend money on your dresses, but those people’s dresses cost money! Those who spend money to customize our branded dresses are our customers. Customers are God, do For the boss, can I put you aside for now and meet my gods first?”
“The customer is God?” Zhou Jingyi smiled, “You are the boss of many companies, you are really like a businessman!”
“I was originally a businessman!” Xiao Yao smiled, “I sell musical instruments, sell copyrights for songs, sell copyrights for film and television works, I sell so many things, what is not a businessman? But I just make or teach others how to make, this I don’t care how to sell. I only care about how much money is sold for those things and how to make those things sell for more money. Compared to ordinary merchants, I don’t do much. ”
“Those people are looking for our brand custom dresses, most of the reason is because of me,” Xiao Yao finally said, “In this case, I have to go and meet them!”
“Well, businessman, we won’t delay your business!” Zhou Jingyi smiled.
