She admired Zuo Yunshan's talent, but it was only the talent of a "craftsman" and nothing else. Within this limit, her mood is like that of a cultured person encouraging a talented craftsman, and she wants to use her professional advantages to help him.
As a magazine editor, Wei Chun knows many celebrities. Judging from her tone, there are some friends among them and some who "flatter" her. She seemed to have some kind of power, as if she could make Zuo Yunshan famous all over the world with just one word.
Wei Chun and Zuo Yunshan exist in different professional worlds. She believes that her career belongs to the upper class, and she is very satisfied. Sometimes she makes some disgusting remarks, but depending on different understandings, it can also be considered a kind of vanity. The so-called vanity refers to giving an unknown beautician the opportunity to become famous, allowing him to take a look at his own world and appreciate his amazing expression. Vanity also contains a sense of superiority, because then he will treat her more attentively than other customers in the beauty salon.
"I was at a popular writer's place just now, and I was taking a new editor from the editorial department." Wei Chun raised his face and puffed out smoke.
"I went to the editorial department to ask him to write a novel, but he refused, so I went to convince him. He had been in contact with me before, and I could say anything with a straight face. I sarcastically said something to him, and I said, you are great now. ! So he apologized quickly and said, I'm really sorry for you! I told him to write it right away. The new male editor who came recently is really a loser!"
Her eyes were squinted due to the smoke, and she looked arrogant.
"So, the editor thanked you, right?" Zuo Yunshan said with respect. He expressed sincere admiration for her ability to easily subdue a famous novelist to let him write a manuscript.
"Of course, but that's my job too."
At work, Wei Chun seems to be quite skillful.
"It doesn't matter what you say to popular writers. He has been very busy recently and is in a good mood. He was not so busy when he contacted me. At that time, he was very enthusiastic and had a really low profile towards me. He has become famous recently. Looking back on the past He really thought it was funny. He was very nervous when he showed me the manuscript. I asked him to rewrite it several times. So, he didn’t dare to raise his tail in front of me.”
In Wei Chun's words, causative verbs such as asking someone to write a book and asking someone to do something often appear. The so-called so-and-so refers to celebrities whose names often appear in magazines. Of course, they are not all writers, but also critics, university professors, essayists, etc. Now she is responsible for famous actors and actresses, singers, and critics from TV, movies, and theater. The so-called "let" means letting these people appear in authoritative magazines. It seems that it is within her authority to give in or not.
"An actress called and said she wanted to meet me tonight, but I refused because I was not in the mood.
Wei Chun changed the topic. This actress is currently an influential television actress.
"She wanted me to introduce herself. I knew her thoughts and that's why I didn't want to see her. Her competitor's talk was published in last month's magazine, and she was annoyed."
Her conversation was as if she had these celebrities around her, and she and Zuo Yunshan really felt like they were in two different worlds.
The two actresses she mentioned were praised by women's weekly magazines and art magazines, and are inaccessible to ordinary people. There are many such magazines in the beauty salon for customers waiting for the dryer, and Zuo Yunshan is also familiar with them. Facing the simple man in front of him who listened to her with wide eyes, Wei Chun couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.
Wei Chun suggested that it would be great if he could style hair for actresses or singers. She persuaded him that this was the era of publicity and that this was the best way to quickly expand its influence. This was said during a casual chat during the first meeting.
Zuo Yunshan said that his level was not good enough, but he kept her words in mind. After some humility, he said that if there was such a possibility, he would definitely do it well. He said this with the enthusiasm of a young man.
Wei Chun gently agreed and said: OK. Let’s talk about it when you get a chance.
The incident was not mentioned during the second meeting. But she didn't forget the conversation about who was styling the hair of famous actors and singers. Those people are all teacher-level beauticians in the beauty industry.
The fact that she didn't directly mention what Zuo Yunshan said last time proved that she had kept his affairs in mind. Zuo Yunshan believed that if it was an irresponsible promise, she would definitely say something nice the second time. Because she was considering it seriously, she treated it carefully and did not say anything casually.
Therefore, he was reluctant to raise his wish again. It was not that he was worried about imposing himself on others, but was waiting for her spontaneous help. He was confident.
Wei Chun had repeatedly shown off his abilities to him, so he naturally had the responsibility to show him some actual achievements.
If she regretted blowing those big words, then she would never go to Qi Wen's beauty salon again. But she still came to the door, and while he was combing her hair, she secretly stuffed a paper ball into his hand, agreeing to meet today, while he was talking in his ear.
While they were eating, it was not unnatural for Wei Chun to invite him to the restaurant. Judging from her age, occupation, income, accomplishment, and status, it is natural for her to treat guests.
Wei Chun is also a "gourmet". She went to elegant restaurants and knew everyone from the manager to the waiters. It's also very quiet and elegant here.
She introduced the chief chef of this restaurant to Zuo Yunshan, and then introduced him to the features of several other restaurants. It was the first time Zuo Yunshan had heard of those store names, and he couldn't help but be amazed by her knowledge.
Zuo Yunshan thought, she is not married yet, maybe not in love yet? It seems that she eats at various restaurants just to make up for not being in love. She seemed to choose a higher-end restaurant to relieve Ziran's loneliness in a luxurious atmosphere.
First of all, if you have a lover, you won't have as much free time as you do now. Wouldn't that be a waste of time? If it was for recreation, she would only drink tea and ignore herself. She invited herself here not so much for recreation as for the emptiness in her heart.
Although I think so in my heart, I still shouldn't be careless. Maybe Wei Chun is doing it very cleverly behind the scenes. She seems to be very shrewd in this regard.
She asked for a beer. She was a good drinker. After eating a little of the food, she drank three bottles alone. During this period, she talked about the celebrity secrets she came into contact with at work.
She said, not too blatantly, that the relationship between so-and-so and so-and-so was published in Art Week magazine, but that was not true, and that there was an unpublished relationship between so-and-so and so-and-so, etc. The so-called not too explicit is because she always uses some civilized words when talking. She seemed drunk.
"Hey, Zuo Yunshan," she suddenly changed the subject, "that fat woman who often comes to see you, who is she?"
As soon as she heard it, she knew she was talking about Ye Ya.
