581 Chapter 581
Garo had been keeping a close eye on the shooting of the film. The director was already very strict about the details, but it was even more so with the appearance of Garo.
In the middle of the film, Garo had left Rome for nearly a week due to work reasons. He came back to continue supervising the film until the end.
The originally planned shooting time was delayed again and again. The directors of each location were nitpicking to the point of nitpicking. Other than greatly increasing the budget, it also delayed Jiang SE’s time.
Fortunately, she had been ordered by the company to ‘take a break’ for half a year during the auction of the music score with Tao cen at the charity banquet. She had plenty of time, so she did not mind carrying out the requests of the Elysees company to reshoot the song.
Most of the time, even Michelle from the Italy company, Elysees, sympathized with her. However, when the director waved his hand and said ‘NO good’, she would always quietly return to her original position and prepare for the next round.
Her working attitude had unexpectedly won Garo’s favor. Later on, when they were on set, Garo’s attitude toward Jiang se was completely different from the polite and distant attitude he had when they first met.
Of course, what really changed Garo’s attitude was the advertisement that Jiang se had shot.
The principle of ‘slow work produces meticulous work’ was applicable in both China and the world. The advertising plan itself was carefully revised by a professional team hired by the company Elysees in four months. The serious and responsible shooting team even gave the advertising film-like texture.
With the company Elysees willing to invest a lot of money in post-production, and the right spokesperson for leopard, once this exclusive commercial was put on the market, it would probably make many top sports car fans excited.
It was already early November when Jiang se ended the shooting of the commercial.
They spent a few days shopping in Italy. After buying the gifts for their family, Jiang se and the rest prepared to return home.
“You need to be mentally prepared.”
Before they boarded the plane back home, Xia Chaoqun reminded Jiang se, ”
“A lot of people in the country might not be friendly to you.”
As Jiang SE’s advertisement for Elysees was completed, many Chinese netizens discussed whether Elysees had changed their spokesperson for nearly half a year. Finally, Elysees’s slow official statement confirmed the matter.
The official website of China had already made it clear that the sports car launched by Elysees in the new season had already been signed with Jiang se for two years. She would become the only spokesperson for leopard in China.
As soon as the news was released, the official website of Elysees showed signs of paralysis for 24 hours. A large number of Tao cen and Jiang SE’s fans flooded the official website. The comments were polarized.
On one hand, they did not believe that Jiang se would be able to hold up the Elysees sports car. On the other hand, Jiang SE’s fans retorted and used Jiang SE’s endorsement results over the past few years as proof of her appeal.
Elysees ‘sports car was probably the most expensive luxury product among all the endorsements that Jiang se had received since her debut a few years ago. Although the watch that she had endorsed, fedarer, was already serving a portion of the customer base, the price of the sports car far exceeded the price of the fedarer’s watch.
Apart from Tao cen’s fans, many onlookers were not optimistic about Jiang SE’s sales after she endorsed Elysees.
The dispute between the two sides was very fierce. This matter might be the hottest topic in China this week, and it didn’t seem like it would fade in the short term.
“But things aren’t developing in a completely bad direction.” They passed the security check. There was still some time before boarding time. Jiang se was resting in the VIP lounge while Xia Chaoqun took out his eye mask, indicating that he wanted her to sleep for a while.
“Tao cen’s incident has blown up too much. The fans ‘reactions are too intense.”
Some fans ‘extreme emotions could lead to negative consequences. At the moment, the reputation of Elysees had collapsed in the market, and their sales had fallen. This not only made the company pay more attention to this matter, but it also made it easy for the company’s higher-ups to be dissatisfied with this situation.
the cars of the Elysees are not ordinary luxury goods. Brands with a long history not only pay attention to sales, but also the brand’s value.
Tao cen had not been removed from the list of ambassadors for Elysees. To the higher-ups of Elysees, she was still the spokesperson for the Huaxia region. However, she was no longer the only one who could endorse all fields.
Her fans loved Tao cen so much that it caused her a lot of trouble. The close friendship between Tao cen and Piech, which had been maintained for almost ten years, was now in danger.
a few days ago, Tao cen personally went to Elysees ‘Asia Pacific headquarters to apologize to Piech in order to salvage Elysees’ impression of her.
Perhaps Tao cen’s fans did not expect that their act of protecting him would bring him so much trouble.
After this incident, not only would it affect the partnership between Tao cen and Elysees, but it might also cause other brands who were planning to partner with Tao cen to give up on the idea.
Jiang se sighed. She took the blindfold from Xia Chaoqun. Before she could put it on, she heard footsteps outside.
She looked up and saw another group of people entering the building from the main entrance. The person in the lead was a woman in a white coat. She was holding her bag in one hand while her other arm was hooked by a young girl. When she saw Jiang se, she was stunned for a moment. Very soon, the faint smile on her face disappeared.
She took out her sunglasses from her bag and put them on. Then, she turned to her assistant and gave her some instructions.
The assistant glanced at Jiang se with a reverent expression. He quickly turned around and left.
“This is really a narrow road for enemies.”
Coincidentally, Jiang se ran into Zhou Wei’s wife and eldest daughter from Jingtai real estate in the rest area. The mother and daughter were Tao cen’s fans. They were also the ones who had publicly boycotted the sports car brand after Jiang se had signed on with Elysees.
In the past few months, she had expressed her opinion in public several times that the value of Elysees ‘brand would be reduced if they signed with Jiang se. She claimed that she, her daughter, and her husband would not purchase Elysees’ car for the next two years during their partnership.
Mrs. Zhou was quite influential in China’s social circle. Many of the rich ladies looked up to her. Her words affected many of her close friends and business partners. This was also the biggest reason why Elysees ‘performance had declined so quickly in the past six months.
“What is she doing here?”
Mo Anqi furrowed her brows. She clearly did not have a good impression of Mrs. Zhou. Meeting at such an occasion, the atmosphere between both parties seemed to be a little tense.
Mrs. Zhou’s daughter had an unfriendly expression on her face. The lady in the rest area was explaining to the mother and daughter in a gentle manner. Although the rest area was large, there were not many people inside. It was very quiet. Jiang se could vaguely hear Mrs. Zhou’s request that she wanted to spend some time alone with her daughter before she boarded the plane.
The staff could understand her intentions, but most of the customers who could enter the VIP hall were not easy to deal with. The staff at the service area was a little troubled, but Mrs. Zhou was very strong.
Jiang se smiled and played with the blindfold in her hand. Mrs. Zhou was unwilling to communicate with the staff. The two assistants beside her communicated with the lady in the VIP room for a long time but to no avail. After some hesitation, they walked toward Jiang se and bowed.
“I’m sorry, miss Jiang.”
The two assistants were wearing black suits and carrying a few bags, which should contain Mrs. Zhou’s valuable personal belongings.
“May I disturb you for a moment to discuss something with you? The resting room nearby is already occupied, and that’s the wife and daughter of Mr. Zhou from Jingtai real estate. Can you guys leave and find another resting room?”
The assistant’s tone was gentle, but the words that came out of his mouth made Jiang se not know whether to laugh or cry. Mo Anqi and the other assistants were furious. Chen Shan was eager to protect Jiang se, so he immediately said,
“We came here first! To be fair, even if you want to leave, you should be the ones leaving first.”
The assistant smiled as if he did not hear Chen Shan’s words. He only looked at Jiang se and ignored the others.
“May I, miss Jiang?”
“You can’t.”
Jiang se looked up at her. When the assistant heard her words, he was stunned for a moment before he emphasized, ”
if you can leave, we’ll be very grateful.
in fact, if you could be quiet for a while and not disturb my rest, I would be even more grateful.
As she said this, she put on her blindfold. Xia Chaoqun stood up. Under such circumstances, an assistant like Chen Shan arguing with her would not be of much use. She would only be a laughing stock.
Some of the travelers who had returned to China had already noticed the situation here. Some of the Chinese faces who passed by clearly recognized Mrs. Zhou standing at the door.
This lady was a famous person in a financial magazine. In addition to her husband’s own career, she had also developed her own beauty business. She was doing very well, and her assets were not low. She was also pursued by many women.
If the photos were made public, it would not be good for Jiang se and Mrs. Zhou’s reputations.
Xia Chaoqun’s face was cold. Her expression showed that there was no room for discussion on this matter. if Mrs. Zhou doesn’t like the lounge to be occupied, I think Mr. Zhou’s real estate business should expand a little. At least, he should contract the lounge at airports around the world for his wife and daughter to use.
Those who were familiar with Xia Chaoqun would know that this was already a rather unhappy display.
Her aura was not something Chen Shan could compare to. When she opened her mouth, she suppressed Mrs. Zhou’s assistant.
In addition, Xia Chaoqun was not an ordinary person. Putting aside her status in century Galaxy, she was also born into a prestigious family, and her status was not below that of Mrs. Zhou.
Under Xia Chaoqun’s imposing manner, the assistant’s expression quickly lost its calm. His face first turned red, then he bowed awkwardly and left after apologizing.
After this incident, Mrs. Zhou and the others knew that they could not make a fuss in public. They found a quiet corner far away from Jiang se and sat down.
The assistant had already left, but Chen Shan’s anger still hadn’t subsided. He was so angry that his chest hurt.
“What kind of people are these!”
Mo Anqi took out her phone and scrolled through the messages for a while before she replied softly, ”
the mother and daughter were invited to Milan to watch the show. After the show, they flew to Rome. They just came back today. I didn’t expect to run into Sese. What bad luck!
She seemed to have recalled something. She stood up and whispered to Xia Chaoqun, ”
“Sister Xia, I’ve got someone to check the ticket information.”
The journey back from Italy was not short, and if he had to meet such a woman as soon as he opened his eyes, it would really affect his mood.
After she received Xia Chaoqun’s reply, she stood up and left. About half an hour later, she returned with an ugly expression.
“She changed her flight.”
Mrs. Zhou’s attitude infuriated mo Anqi. Her words and actions had proven her contempt for Jiang se. It was far more unbearable than her harsh words and unkind words.
I’ve already informed the people in the country to pay attention to the news later.
Many of the returning passengers had probably witnessed the confrontation between Mrs. Zhou and Jiang se. In order to prevent the news from leaking, mo Anqi had already informed the staff working for Jiang se in China. Xia Chaoqun nodded in response.
Such an unpleasant incident happened before they returned to the country. It cast a shadow over the initially happy mood of the crew members around Jiang se who had just finished shooting the Elysees advertisement.
Once again, she was surrounded by a large number of reporters at the Imperial Airport. Jiang se was unwilling to respond to this hot topic.
With the help of the bodyguards that Xia Chaoqun had prepared, Jiang se managed to escape the reporters ‘encirclement.
He first called Feng Zhongliang and PEI Yi to let them know that he was safe, then called the PEI family as usual.
After adjusting to her jet lag and resting for two days, Jiang se regained her energy and went to visit her grandfather. Then, she handed the gifts she had brought back to the country to her assistant to distribute to her seniors and related business partners. She had called the PEI family in advance to inform them that everything was ready. She only went to the PEI residence with the gifts she had prepared for the PEI family.
To the PEI family, rules and etiquette were more important than solicitousness.
Before her rebirth, Feng Nan’s experience had given Jiang se a huge advantage. No one knew the situation of every member of the PEI family better than she did since she had been close to them when she was young. Most of the gifts she brought back were personally selected by her, and everyone in the PEI family had a share.
The old lady received a pair of leather shoes that she had specially asked to be custom-made for her. The appearance was not eye-catching, but it was made by a famous designer. The most important thing was not only the value, but the pair of leather shoes that she gave to the old lady showed that she cared about him. Otherwise, it was impossible for her to remember his size so accurately. This kind of thought was truly hard to come by.
The item that old master PEI received was a purple clay teapot. It had been made by the late master Zhang Huayi, who was a well-known Chinese master in his early years. The design was new and unique. Jiang se smiled and said, ”
this teapot is made of the best Da Hong Pao tea, and it’s already thick. Yi said that you’ve been drinking tea to recuperate recently, so I think this is a good gift for you.
When old master PEI received it, he couldn’t stop smiling.
At his level, he had power and status. He did not lack for fame and fortune. However, Jiang SE’s gift was just what he wanted.
The teapot was made by a famous master. Zhang Huayi was famous in China for making Yixing teapots. The teapots he made were difficult to buy even if you had money.
After his death, the things he left behind became unique and could not be obtained again.
The important thing was that this teapot had been kept by the collector for many years. It looked reserved, like an upright gentleman, modest and pleasant.
The fragrance of the tea had already seeped into the pot. If it was nurtured for a few more years, it would become a family heirloom. The more old master PEI looked at it, the more he liked it. The more he looked at Jiang se, the more he found her to be obedient and pleasant.
