Chapter 864

The success of the fourth Victoria Secret Show for three consecutive years has made it a global fashion event.

In the early morning of November 11 on the east coast of the United States, crowds began to gather on the streets around the Arsenal where the big show was going to be held on Lexington Avenue in midtown Manhattan. Media reporters from all over the world, fashion bloggers of emerging Internet platforms, fans of the Vimy Angel corps, scalpers selling tickets for the big show, and so on.

On the other hand, compared with the past, the TV broadcast will only be held after the big show. This time, from the early preparation, all kinds of media platforms have started to follow up closely. Every new Weimi supermodel, every news related to the Weimi show, every group of Weimi angel's Fashion Street Photos, and every rumor that a certain singer has created a theme song for Weimi can be heard It has attracted a lot of attention.

The increase of newspaper and magazine sales, TV ratings and network on demand, in turn, stimulates the media to actively pursue all kinds of news related to Weimi, and some exclusive news spread from inside will be snapped up by the media at high prices.

Such a fashion show has unconsciously evolved into a national level social event.

Super high attention always means huge hidden economic benefits.

This is also the essence of commercial advertising.

Not to mention the increasing sales of products related to the Weimi brand in recent years, it is just around the Weimi show that the parent company of Weimi, Ltd group, has made a lot of money.

In winter, the sky in New York is very short. After six o'clock in the afternoon, the city has been shrouded in dusk, but the atmosphere is very hot behind the arms factory on Lexington Avenue.

In recent days, grace split can only rest for about four hours and open her eyes every day. In addition to the heavy business of elite company, there are also all kinds of preparations for the girls who are going to participate in this year's Weimi show.

In fact, if you want to, grace can be very easily in charge of elite, the modeling giant.

In the era of John Casablanca, after defeating the former Ford Model Agency, the whole elite began to relax, including Casablanca itself. Therefore, elite seemed to be prosperous before, but in fact it was full of crises. In the past, elite collapsed because of a scandal in the late 1990s. It's not that the impact of the scandal is too strong, but the root cause is that elite itself has accumulated disadvantages for a long time.

If grace wants to change this state and let elite take the lead in the industry, she must pay more.

After obtaining the position of elite leader, we should take over the power of senior executives, simplify the scale of customers, re plan the brokerage contract, set up the planning department and business team, and establish a more scientific model training and marketing system. Any of these measures must pay a lot of energy.

Reform has never been an easy thing. In this process, we have encountered a lot of resistance, and almost brewing some public opinion crisis.

Fortunately, after a few months, everything is in danger, and elite has taken on a new look.

Because many measures are aimed at seeking more business sources for elite's customers, instead of scraping a layer of oil and water for customers' rent, transportation and other daily expenses before, not to mention all kinds of malicious deduction of commission, after a turmoil, elite's cohesion has been greatly enhanced, at least there will be no more embarrassment that the impact of the last scandal in history will fall apart It's like this.

Back office of the arsenal.

I personally checked the clothes and shoes of all elite's angels to make sure there was no problem. I also communicated with the Weimi show team about the details of the angels' temporary appearance, calmed Karen Mulder, who was very nervous because of her first appearance, taught a lesson to Trish Goff, who ate chocolate secretly, and finally told fashion, who came backstage to visit Anna Coleman, President of TV, introduced Fernando Lima and discussed the details of a special interview about Lima. When the whole backstage atmosphere began to boil, grace finally had time to relax.

The time is approaching eight o'clock in the evening.

The big show is about to start.

What's left is the girls' own business. Instead of going to the front hall to watch the show like Anna Coleman, grace went to the staff rest area and chose a very comfortable sofa in the corner to sit down. An assistant brought her coffee. Grace held warm drinks, felt the restless atmosphere around and the waiting music from the front desk, and relaxed for a while Tone.

Suddenly I miss a little man.

Contacted the other day, he replied that he would not come to watch the show this time.

There's no way.

Quietly comfort yourself, the whole westero system is so big, so many women around him, can leave her some small space, should be satisfied.

Yeah.

I can't help imagining it.

If you miss him, he will appear in his side, then, what will he do?

Willing to die for him.

It seems that even if he doesn't show up, he will.

Always want to die.

It was the first time I met him last year at Greenwich north country estate.Some miss the lawn.

However, when so many women committed suicide for Marlon Brando, he was better than Marlon Brando. How could he not have one or two women to die for him.

Then.

Recently, she may have had too little sleep and hallucinations. The little man really came to her and sat down. She turned around and looked at her stupidly, hoping that the illusion would last a little longer.

Actually, I want to lean over and lie on his chest.

But there are many people around. She doesn't want to be taken as a psycho because she is crazy about the air.

Probably see her in a daze, fantasy out of the man quietly stretched out his hand, across the invisible angle of people around her hand in a place.

"Ah..."

Grace gave a little cry and finally responded. She asked, "are you real?"

If it's not in public, and I remember that women don't want outsiders to know about their relationship, Simon almost grabs the chin of the infatuated woman in front of him, pulls it over and ravages it. At this time, he just says, "false, this is actually your dream."

When the man opened her mouth, grace finally confirmed that she wanted to get close to her, then stopped subconsciously. She also avoided suspicion and moved a little to the side. She just stared at the little man in front of her for a moment: "I, didn't you say, don't you want to come?"

Simon explained casually, "there's time again."

In fact, I arrived on the east coast at more than four o'clock in the afternoon. After I got off the plane, I went to a shooting range in Greenwich. I carried a Barrett gun alone and shot off dozens of small drones as targets. I regained my mood and had dinner at Greenwich north suburb manor. Then I drove to Manhattan.

Obviously aware of some problems, grace wisely did not ask, just said: "well, would you like coffee?"

Simon shook his head: "no drink."

"There are a lot of snacks for girls. Do you want them?"

"No."

Grace saw that the little man suddenly seemed to be in a temper, not angry at all, but more indulged in her tone: "what do you want to do? Girls are busy now, but they don't have time to come with you."

"Just take a break here. If you have something to do, do it."

"I'm not busy either," grace said, glancing at the crowd outside the rest area and lowering her voice slightly. "Why don't we leave now? Well, I haven't had dinner yet. Shall we go together?"

"No

"Well, well, then, do you want to eat me or not, any way?"

Simon got up and went straight out.

Grace was stunned. She reacted and quickly got up. Before she could tell her assistant, she slipped out of the backstage.

Upper east side of Manhattan.

In the penthouse on Fifth Avenue, grace woke up the next afternoon.

Get enough sleep for the first time in these days.

Maybe it's too much fatigue accumulated, maybe it's too miserable last night, maybe it's because there is someone in this apartment that she is infatuated with. In a word, she has been sleeping for more than ten hours at a time.

Also, not counting business trips and so on, the first night is not home.

Suddenly I don't want to worry so much.

Already wake up, the man is not around, still do not want to get up, occasionally also think, continue to stay tonight, can not go.

Until the bedroom door was pushed open.

Grace looked over. This is one of his housekeepers, angrey Davis. She had seen her many times, so she took the initiative to greet her.

The housekeeper politely agreed, and said, "it's more than two o'clock in the afternoon, Ms. spotter. Mr. westlow has just called to let me see if you're awake."

Grace is still lazy and doesn't want to get up. She just signs to the window: "Angie, can you help me open the curtains? It seems to be a nice day today."

Angri Davis nodded with a smile and went to open the curtains. The pale but bright winter afternoon sun soon covered the master bedroom. After this, the housekeeper didn't urge grace to get up. Instead, she said in a warm voice, "Ms. spotter, would you like me to bring you something to eat? The kitchen has been preparing."

That's why I feel hungry.

I wanted to eat in bed, but I didn't want to do it after all. I just said, "you go out first, I'll get up right now."

Angrey Davis answered, pointing to the clothes on the hanger at the bedroom door: "this is Mr. westlow's morning delivery. It should be the same as Ms. spotter's last night. By the way, why don't I help put the bath water in place first? "

"Well, thank you."

After carefully dressing up, I went downstairs to the restaurant. More than an hour has passed.

In addition to her dark blue professional suit, grace wore a Gucci scarf around her neck. Otherwise, she would not be able to see anyone these two days.It's not just the neck.

But as long as he likes it.

She likes it, too.

Sitting at the dining table, I finally returned to the state of some elite headladies. While having dinner, I was busy answering all kinds of calls and text messages accumulated from last night to now. Occasionally, I asked the housekeeper about Simon, only to learn that the man left for work in the morning.

Today is Sunday.

But think about it. There is no difference between them in working days and rest days. If you want to have a rest, you can do it at any time. If you want to work, you can never finish it.

Last night's big show went well.

It's unprecedented.

During the meal, we got to know all kinds of manuscripts specially prepared for elite's customers. Today, all of them were sent out. In addition, qusi Gough flew to Australia in the morning to take part in shooting game of the brave. Even if the girl's acting agency contract is not on elite's side, because her career is still focused on modeling, which is also a major event for elite.

I was going to see you off in person today, but it's nothing to miss.

What needs to be explained afterwards can be communicated by telephone.

There are also some customers who came on stage for the first time last night, Fernanda Lima, who became one of the six spokesmen of Vimy this year, and Karen Mulder, who got some favor from Simon and was sent to the Vimy Legion by grace. They both need to make a careful plan next.

Take advantage of the meal time, think of all kinds of things are written in the memo.

Also, I didn't forget to contact my family.

Call her husband and explain that it was too late last night, so she didn't go back to rest.

The couple are now in a strange state of harmony. A few days ago, grace was so busy that she didn't stay overnight. Bill spotter didn't believe his wife's explanation. He guessed something, but didn't go deep into it. They both have their own partners now, but they still live under the same roof.

It's not entirely correct to say that it's for the sake of children. It involves too much and is unwilling to be punctured.

After the meal, grace left her fifth Avenue apartment at more than four o'clock on Sunday afternoon.

It's time for others to get off work, but grace gives herself a list of things she can do after midnight. At the same time, she introspects herself. She can be busy for another week at most.

The body is still the most important thing.

Not for themselves, just hope that men's interest in her can be more lasting.

So I made an appointment for another service before I started work.

One day and one night, Simon completely got rid of some of the negative emotions generated yesterday. On Sunday, he focused all day on Denise TV Department, which has begun to integrate with metropolitan ABC.

At the same time as the two companies merged, Denise's TV Department also launched two big projects that Simon made in person.

One of them is ESPN's plan to buy out NFL live.

If we say that the national sport in the United States is not basketball, which is more famous overseas, but rugby, so there will be the rugby super bowl every year.

American sports TV station ESPN, which has been completely controlled by danielis entertainment, has developed very rapidly in recent years, but it is far from reaching its peak. Simon just knows that the turning point of ESPN in the past history was just after it was acquired by Disney, which started the plan to invest a huge amount of money to monopolize various sports events.

Even later, there was an ESPN tax.

The main reason is that many cable TV users, such as the $15 cable TV package, may have to pay half of it to ESPN. Other basic cable stations may get only a dozen cents or dozens of cents from the operator's subscription share, but ESPN's share can exceed $7.

Simon's going to start the same thing now.

Just buy out the live broadcast of American Football League. In my memory, the agreement reached in the 1990s was $9 billion in eight years.

Because of this, before the merger, Steve Bernstein, the head of ESPN, repeatedly proposed to Tom Murphy, Warren Buffett and other senior executives and shareholders of metropolitan ABC Group, but they did not get the support of these conservative old men. Last year, westrow system won 20% shares of ESPN in the dispute with the Hurst family. Steve Bernstein also contacted Simon several times, hoping that he could help lobby. Simon just asked Bernstein to wait patiently.

Now, of course, there is no need to wait.

What's more, the $9 billion business plan may be very risky, but even if Simon can't see the future, danilisi entertainment is able to bear the development momentum now. After all, it's not a one-time payment of $9 billion, and ESPN has accumulated considerable strength.

What's more, with the current scale of danielis entertainment, only some bold risks can break through the bottleneck and achieve further expansion. Small fights will only stop. This is true of the ABC group, which is the largest city in Rome. So is ESPN Universal Studios.
