Seeing that Razek meant to interrupt him, Liu Qingshan immediately said: "Regarding "Supermodel", I think it is necessary to attract some Eastern faces. After returning to China, I plan to create a season of selections, and the recruitment scope will be in China." There are three countries: China, Cold Country and Small Island Country. The conditions of the contestants are good enough, and the recruitment scope can be appropriately broadened. Will Victoria's Secret be interested in cooperating with them then?"
Razek's eyes lit up, but he quickly covered it up: "Can you tell me more specifically? I mean the significance and specific methods of holding the selection competition!"
"The meaning must be to warm up "Next Top Model" in advance! This is what I think. The top ten will automatically join the qualifying spots for the official "Next Top Model Contest". Whether they can pass the preliminaries and enter the semi-finals, that is They have their own abilities! And the three countries in the recruitment range basically represent the highest level of the fashion industry in Asia. The influence born from this should not only be in the industry, right? And our "Super Model Contest" Its international nature makes it even more worthy of its name!”
"Can this qualifier also be understood as a finalist?"
"Of course, it's not up to us to decide what title to give it. And through this event, we can maximize the authority of "Super Model Contest" and the right to speak in the industry. This is our ultimate goal! Just imagine, in an Olympic Games that is similar to the fashion industry, our "Super Model Competition" will gradually replace the major model agencies and become a major capital force with the right to issue qualification certificates!"
At this time, Razek could no longer hide the surprise on his face, and immediately stood up and walked out, not forgetting to explain as he walked: "I need to report Mr. Liu's plan to the big boss quickly, and I also invite Mr. Liu and Miss Jin. Wait a minute!"
Looking at the direction where the figure had disappeared, Jin Xishan gave Liu Qingshan a thumbs up: "Tell me the truth, is it your sudden whim, or did you have an idea for a long time? This is not a bad idea, it just hit the seven inches of Victoria's Secret If an underwear company can become synonymous with supermodels, why shouldn't Wexner rush to donate sponsorship funds?"
Liu Qingshan looked proud: "I have had this idea for a long time, but I still lack the biggest sponsor. Since Victoria's Secret is willing to take advantage of this, I don't mind helping them!"
Taylor despised his self-righteousness, and then asked: "Brother, why do you say they are taken advantage of? Is there any other mystery in this?"
"Think about it, we are the planners and organizers of specific events. Whether it is "America's Next Top Model" or the future "Asia's Next Top Model", Victoria's Secret is just the sponsor. We are tightly hooked, but as long as we cancel their naming rights, will their company name still have the meaning of being associated with supermodels? And we borrowed their sponsorship to develop the event. Once Victoria's Secret develops it in the future If they have the intention to replace us, or want to open a similar competition to compete with us, then all we need to do is to revoke their naming rights!"
"Aren't you afraid that they will use the honeymoon period of cooperation to secretly win over those supermodels? By then, their other competitions will become our biggest competitors!" Jin Xishan said.
Liu Qingshan shook his head happily: "Logically, they should have made arrangements so early, but at least for now we are the organizers, and the future economic business will definitely dominate. Besides, the endorsement contracts that Victoria's Secret can grant to those supermodels are also It is limited to this one brand, and we have unlimited brand selection advantages, and even if they have long anticipated the disadvantages in this regard, there is no specific solution. We cannot let an underwear company talk to a clothing company about the endorsement contract of its model. Bar?"
"Haha, I understand!" Despite his young age, Taylor is not stupid at all when he should be smart. "We have many ways to operate in advance, and Victoria's Secret is limited to its own brand business. Even if it wants to develop and compete with others, The brand’s intention to cooperate is also limited in ability?”
"Yes, we are legitimate as the organizer, but their ambitions as a sponsor have been exposed! Other brands are not stupid, how can they not see through their purpose, and we control the initiative of the entire event , will they value Victoria's Secret or us more? As long as there is a basis for cooperation, it will be more difficult to replace Victoria's Secret in the future. Don't forget that we are not just a platform for "Next Top Model", but only a variety show planner. There are more opportunities for models to be exposed. As a brand, how can you be willing to have your spokesperson only appear on the catwalk?"
Jin Xi Shanzai nodded repeatedly: "It's true, Victoria's Secret is the biggest fool, because they need to support us everywhere, and if they have any different intentions, they will be kicked out. Victoria's Secret knows this well!"
"And the highest point of their reputation and interests is within the period of cooperation with us. Once they leave us and start a new business, they will at least have to bear the loss of some of their contacts in the early stage. This loss can be big or small, and they may go bankrupt!"
"is it so serious?"
"I can only say that this possibility is extremely high. After all, if the situation does not occur, there is huge uncertainty. However, other brands have more flexible choices, and Victoria's Secret is relatively narrow in this regard!"
As soon as Liu Qingshan finished speaking, he raised his index finger to his mouth and made a "shush" sound, and then Razek's figure appeared again.
His first words after arriving were full of excitement: "Our boss said that tonight Mr. Liu and Ms. Jin will pay the announcement fee according to their actual worth, and you only need to sing one song with the contestants each." ! But my team and I will rush to China with you, and I hope Mr. Liu will come up with a program plan for the finals as soon as possible!"
"Pay more!" Liu Qingshan pointed at Taylor, "She is now considered a candidate for the next generation of little queens. The important thing is that her current net worth is not high, only a few hundred thousand. Let her be in tonight's performance Appear!"
Although this show is not very influential, at least it is broadcast live. Taylor has one more opportunity to perform, and its importance to newcomers is self-evident.
Razek took a breath of cold air and said, "I still have the extra authority of hundreds of thousands. The problem is that the guests for tonight's performance have all been set in advance. It's too late to change the quota at this time!"
Liu Qingshan seemed to have anticipated this possibility: "It's easy. Let's discuss it with Mr. Piron and temporarily add a guest performance. Taylor can be a warm-up guest before the official finals!"
Razek lowered his head and thought for a while, then picked up the phone and dialed Piren.
The result of the two people's discussion was that Liu Qingshan would cooperate with Taylor's performance. It seemed that he was losing money for only one performance, but in fact Taylor was the biggest winner.
So Liu Qingshan shook his head and agreed, and grumbled a few words: "Have you planned to arrange it like this for a long time? Is it your plan to let me take the initiative to say it out? Don't deny it, Razek, there is a twinkle in your eye. You can’t hide your smile from me!”
Razek neither admitted nor denied, but just responded with a chuckle: "No matter what, Piron is the happiest. As a big sponsor, we are actually the one who suffers the most!"
"But I have provided you with a plan for free, or I have given you an opportunity to invest in Victoria's Secret to make a profit, because so far, all my plans have never failed!"
Razek's smile grew thicker, "It's because we understand this that our big boss chooses to trust Mr. Liu! I wish us a happy cooperation in advance, but it's a pity that there is no red wine here."
According to convention, since it was a chorus, the participating guests had to go to the studio to rehearse in advance, so the so-called pre-congratulations became verbal. After briefly freshening up, Liu Qingshan rushed there with his people. TV station.
But they found a place to eat on the way, and Razek left early, obviously going to his boss to discuss the unexpected project.
The two Italians stayed with him, especially Ludovic, and had many business exchanges. One of Liu Qingshan's purposes in coming to Seattle was to discuss cooperation with him.
The deputy mayor Thompson proposed an invitation from the city government before leaving, but Liu Qingshan politely declined it. Even if time was relaxed, he had no intention of blatantly getting involved in the intricate city government relations.
The two little guys Che Geng and Pa Jie had a half-day holiday and were taken to the beach by Fan Shengyang and others to play there. The only ones who followed Liu Qingshan were Shi Hui and Pu Xuanji.
As for Taylor's agent, Kirk, he had long been left in Los Angeles to help her mother Andelia renovate the house. Of course, a large part of this was Taylor's deliberate decision.
She is about to be separated from the one she loves, so she will naturally have a hard time letting go. It is really inconvenient to have her mother by her side.
After finishing the meal, when we rushed to the TV station's recording studio, a lot of people had already gathered inside and outside the hospital.
Both UEN TV station and Victoria's Secret are very smart. As early as the moment the announcement was finalized, TVs in every household were already releasing program previews through rolling subtitles.
Therefore, people who lived near the TV station and were stranded in the hotel rushed here one after another. These people were basically Liu Qingshan's loyal fans, and naturally they carried signs of support with them.
After Liu Qingshan showed up, they were approached by elected representatives in order to get some seats for the audience.
Liu Qingshan naturally cooperated with such a request. Moreover, it was still early before the live broadcast in the evening, so he had time to change the list of live audiences.
He went directly to the host Gulena. This beautiful host was the top performer on the station, and she had a very good personal relationship with Jin Xishan. Sometimes speaking was better than directing on the spot.
So ten minutes later, when the fans learned that Liu Qingshan had helped them grab almost half of the seats at the venue, they all cheered happily, causing people to poke their heads down in the countless windows of the TV station building. Wait and see.
