Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 321 Aiwujiwu’s ‘gift’ (please vote for me!)

After a whole afternoon of shooting, Annie Leibovitz got her most satisfying photo.

This is already pretty good.

You know, some celebrities were tortured to death when they asked her to take photos.

"Xiang, if there is a chance, let's have dinner together in Paris."

Sophie Marceau changed back into her own clothes and walked out, smiling at Xiang Yang who was listening to Annie Leibovitz's rants. She would also attend an event for her own movie in the evening.

"Okay, I'll waste your time this time." Xiang Yang nodded politely.

It has to be said that when such a beautiful woman stands in front of him, his heart always beats loudly to show his vitality.

"You're welcome, you're quite cute."

After Sophie Marceau finished speaking, she said hello to everyone in Annie Leibovitz's team.

"Xiang, do you have any plans for the evening?" Annie Leibovitz asked.

"Yes, my wife made a reservation for us at the restaurant. Thank you for your hard work today."

During the filming, Liu Qianxi and Little John left just before meal time.

As Xiang Yang's lover, Liu Qianqian went to book a restaurant for dinner for everyone. He could understand this, but Little John was able to throw away Sophie Marceau, which really surprised Xiang Yang, who was familiar with each other.

Unexpectedly, this guy has changed his temper?

"When I get a chance, I'll take a group photo of you and her together." Annie Leibovitz smiled.

"Okay."

Xiang Yang did not refuse.

Seeing that he agreed so readily, Annie Leibovitz looked at him slyly, "As for next year's clothes, you can make them for me when you have time."

"Okay, okay. Wait until I'm done, haha."

Dinner with Annie Leibovitz's team at Gotham Bar and Grill.

A new-style restaurant located in downtown, it opened in 1984 and has been awarded one Michelin star for many years in a row. It has always been loved by New Yorkers.

The prices here are not expensive and the dishes are very rich.

After dinner, everyone was very satisfied with Liu Qianqian's arrangement.

Before leaving, Annie Leibovitz also gave her a small gift to Liu Qianqian, a photo of Liu Qianqian she captured with her camera during work as a souvenir.

"Thank you."

In the photo, Liu Qianxi is smiling and standing in the beams of light formed by the leaves blocking the natural light, with her head bent and stroking her lower abdomen, her eyes bursting with anticipation.

On the back of the photo paper, Annie Leibovitz also wrote a message: Unpretentious emotions, pure and sincere.

“Have faith in yourself and Merry Christmas.”

After gently patting Liu Qianqian on the shoulder, Annie Leibovitz waved.

"Well, I know, this is the best Christmas gift I've ever received."

Liu Qianqian waved her hand.

But when she said this, she glanced at Xiang Yang vaguely.

Although she was very careful, Xiang Yang still caught his eye. After smiling "hehe", Liu Qianqian raised her nose and snickered in her heart:

"I'm afraid, he doesn't know that he was betrayed by Little John, right? Haha."

However, when she thought that Xiang Yang had prepared a special gift for herself, she looked a little proud and couldn't hold it back.

What kind of clothes will it be?

Liu Qianqian blinked and began to think in her mind.

"What's the air?"

Xiang Yang waved goodbye to the others while clearing his thoughts.

After finishing all his work in New York, Xiangyang did not choose to stay longer in the United States. After returning to the hotel, he immediately started packing his luggage for tomorrow's departure.

Unexpectedly, Liu Qianqian took the initiative to help fold the clothes this time.

"Let me do it. You can rest more."

"You always put it away after you finish folding it."

Looking at Xiang Yang, she said with a smile.

"." Xiangyang sighed inwardly. Even though every time you pack your luggage, you can't put the clothes you folded into the suitcase, yet you still dislike me.

"Get up and drive quickly, don't block me."

Seeing Xiang Yang staring blankly at her with his mouth open and not speaking, Liu Qianqian took a photo of this incomprehensible guy in disgust.

I did this just to give him more time to draw pictures.

The holiday is coming up in just two days, and I don’t know how to hurry up. It’s a good idea to draw a ‘big cake’ for yourself first.

However, what Liu Qianqian didn't expect was that what Xiang Yang did next was completely beyond her expectations.After returning to Paris with Little John, Liu Xiaoli and others, Xiangyang had no intention of drawing at all.

Not only was there no intention in this regard, but everyone was gone.

After returning to Paris, Xiang Yang seemed to have disappeared from the world and didn't care about anything.In the end, even the Christmas tree was delivered by Little John.

Looking at the Christmas decorations she had just hung, Liu Qianqian bit her back molars and felt that she had paid by mistake these days.

"How could he do this!"

"Wang Wang"

Beside her, the rice ball holding a Christmas toy ball seemed to understand her complaint and agreed.

"Rice ball, where's Laifu?" Touching the rice ball that had always been with her, Liu Qianqian looked around and saw that the Laifu in her mouth was pressing Dongdong to the ground and licking it.

"Meow!" Dongdong, who tried to resist but was ineffective, could only make a feeble cry to express his protest.

"Laifu! Don't bully Dongdong!" A scolding sound rang out, startling Liu Xiaoli who was cooking in the kitchen. She frowned and looked at her daughter, feeling inexplicable.

Thinking that her daughter might not be resting well recently, Liu Xiaoli said, "Sissi, if you feel uncomfortable, go to bed and lie down for a while."

"Mom, I'm fine. I just think Fupi is a little itchy and I need to clean it up!"

"Xiang, fortunately we noticed this."

<divclass="contentadv">"Yes, Xiang. When we came out of the charity organization just now, their person in charge expressed their gratitude and said that our promise was the best Christmas gift they had ever received."

In the luxurious Bentley, Axel and the head of Van Cleef & Arpels' public relations department, Mauro Grimaldi (mentioned earlier), spoke to each other and nodded silently to Yang.

"The blind group is not a minority, it's just that they are often ignored by society." Xiang Yang said that he never felt bad about spending money from capitalists, but he would still say good things.

"The fact that we can pay attention to more vulnerable groups is a good supplement to our respective charity systems. How to do the rest depends on you."

"Indeed, we in China are communicating, but I believe there will be results soon." Axel interjected, "Then it depends on how we promote this matter."

Yes, the hardest part about the whole thing is not the money.

But how to create more social attention.

On this point, Axel and Grimaldi reached a consensus early on.

Because as long as this thing is done, both Hermès and Van Cleef & Arpels can gain attention that ordinary charitable donations cannot bring.

Talking about promotion, Axel said to Xiang Yang with a smile:

"Pierre told me today that he has agreed to your suggestion to let the leather goods department produce some dog tags and small accessories in the shape of guide dogs to express gratitude to customers who donate to the guide dog center."

After saying this, Grimaldi, who represented Van Cleef & Arpels, was very surprised. Hermès had already taken action?

It seems like we can’t just spend money and not do anything here.

Grimaldi began to imagine the cute appearance of Labrador in his mind. Maybe it would be a good way to ask jewelry designers to design a special brooch using cheap gemstones and auction it to raise funds.

After all, it is a Labrador.

What do French people think is the best dog breed?

Then it must be a medium-to-large retriever with thick fur and a wide head, originating in Canada.

The French love it even more than the Papillon, an ancient French dog breed.

In France, successive presidents have a habit. Mitterrand, Chirac, and Sarkozy all raised Labradors, and this has slowly become a tradition.

What few people know is that in France, when owners register their dogs, they have to name their dogs according to the letters of the year, with each year represented by French letters.

Labrador is also known as the 'King of Guide Dogs'.

How many guide dogs are there in the world?

According to statistics, the total number does not exceed 2 true guide dogs (2018 IGDF report).

Many people often point out that there are less than 4000 guide dogs in China. However, in developed European countries, there are more than 1000 in the United Kingdom, more than 600 in France, and only more than [-] in Germany.

Compared with the huge demand, the scarcity of guide dogs is a problem faced by many countries.

Because training a qualified guide dog requires not only money, but also time. There is even a view that the training cost of guide dogs does not match their actual use value, which is justified.

It's normal for people to think this way.

Because not everyone has personally experienced the pain of losing vision.

Not everyone understands the meaning of "empty" in the mouth of a congenitally blind person.

The day before Christmas, which is Christmas Eve.

Liu Qianqian suddenly received a grand invitation to attend the brand's press conference on behalf of Van Cleef & Arpels.

What surprised her was that the brand did not prepare any jewelry or clothes for such a press conference. Apart from an invitation letter, the only thing they brought over was an introduction to the conference content.

"Van Cleef & Arpels & Hermès jointly invite you?"

Looking at this dog-style invitation letter, Liu Qianqian felt very strange.

As soon as she opened the activity introduction brochure, she understood it instantly.

"Ms. Liu Qianqian, since this is a charity event, you don't need to prepare special evening wear." The staff of the Van Cleef & Arpels Public Relations Department said with a smile.

"Well, okay, thank you." Liu Qianxi bit her lip and nodded.

"If there are any questions." The staff member glanced at Xiang Yang and said with a discerning smile: "Mr. Xiang was involved in the planning of the entire event. How about you communicate with Mr. Xiang?"

"ok, I know, thank you."

Liu Qianqian held her breath and gazed at Xiang Yang tenderly, "So, this is your Christmas gift to me?" she asked in a low voice, stroking his arm with her fingers.

"Well it's not really a Christmas present."

Xiang Yang lowered his voice and said matter-of-factly:

"The main reason is that I have been discussing charity activities with Axel recently, and it suddenly occurred to me."

Seeing that the two of them were so careless, the people from Van Cleef & Arpels quickly stood up and left. They really didn't see this thing.

After sending her away with a smile, Liu Qianqian held Xiang Yang's hand and moved her lips affectionately, "Let's talk about it." She knew this was just an excuse.

Two major luxury brands jointly financed it. She would not have believed it without Xiang Yang's matchmaking.

Xiang Yang said with a smile: "Everyone thinks that this kind of thing is quite meaningful. After all, being able to promote such charitable exchanges is also a good thing for France."

Hermès needs to promote its newly established sub-brand in China, and Van Cleef & Arpels is willing to invest a sum of money in charity in China to establish the value of its own brand in giving back to society.

And toward the sun.

When he thought of Laifu and Fantuan, those two annoying guys who liked to bully Dongdong, he thought

It's a pity that I can't take this opportunity to send them away.

Faintly, Xiang Yang felt a little regretful.

Liu Qianqian raised her head and looked at him with some complaints, "You always make things so easy."

"I'm not saying it's easy, it's just that once the matter is settled, I won't be the one to do the most difficult thing, so there's nothing to be proud of."

Xiang Yang stretched out his hand to cover Liu Qianqian's fingers. She didn't refuse, but just shook her hand back.

When the warm fingers touched each other, Liu Qianqian glanced at the side of his face, stretched out her head to kiss him, then lay on Xiang Yang's shoulder and said softly:

"Then I can learn from you, okay."

Feeling Liu Qianqian's voice trembling slightly, Xiang Yang's heart started to itch, but just as he was about to open his mouth, Liu Xiaoli walked out of the room and cleared her throat, "I'm going to the supermarket. Let me know what you two want to eat." .”

After speaking in a bad tone, Liu Xiaoli didn't even look at the two of them.

Dislike

When she drove to the supermarket, parked the car, and walked in to pick up a cart, there were several blond and blue-eyed foreigners next to her who were walking and chatting with copies of Le Monde.

When she came to France, although she didn't speak French very well, Liu Xiaoli still completely mastered the frequently used words.

After listening to the words "Hermès" and "Van Cleef & Arpels" that were closely related to her daughter and son-in-law from several people's mouths, Liu Xiaoli couldn't restrain her curiosity and simply bought a newspaper.

As one of the newspapers with the largest circulation in France and the French daily with the largest overseas sales, Le Monde is quite influential in French-speaking countries. The news published by "Le Monde" usually focuses on...

Turning to the first page, she was surprised to find that Xiang Yang's photo was posted on the second page together with a Labrador dog.

"Her liking made me notice how cute they are."
