AWB Chapter 25 25 Dragon Tail
Chapter 25 25 Dragon Tail
Not only Xie Zhouyao's team did not expect that the hand-signed limited gift box was sold out immediately, but even Feng Baixiang, who is the brand owner, was also very surprised.
Although there are only a handful of national brands with a history of one hundred years that can still survive to this day, since the market was opened and many international big names entered the domestic market, the aura of Feng Baixiang has gradually been ignored. Although the sales volume has been good, there has never been a second time. Case.
The brand originally expected that those customers who bought the hand-signed version would interact more online, post photos, write about experiences, and let the product reputation ferment.Unexpectedly, "It's a dragon" was sold out at one time, and other fans were not able to buy it, but it was still popular on Weibo with a picture.
"Feng Baixiang will hold another event, still use your autographed poster, hand-signed and printed, unlimited quantity. Then give a discount on the gift box, this time, let's give benefits to fans who didn't get it." Yao Jia contacted urgently Yaoqin's publicity department asked them to cooperate with the brand to carry out a new wave of promotion.
"This person who bought [-] copies at a time, why don't you let me ask about the situation?" Xie Zhouyao swiped his phone, not being overwhelmed by vanity, but rather worried, "It's not a small amount, you have to do what you can. Besides, if the user is a child, he has no concept of money. Or he is hoarding goods maliciously, using fan circles to speculate on high prices for profit..."
"It's not convenient for you to ask, I'll go." Yao Jia glanced at Xie Zhouyao appreciatively, "Thought it out!"
Yao Jiazhen used his agent's authenticated Weibo account to ask, and the other party responded quickly, and sent a picture directly, which looked like a screenshot of a bank statement when he clicked on it.Yao Jia was dumbfounded at a glance, counted back and forth several times with his fingers, and then handed the picture to Xie Zhouyao dumbly.
"I asked him if he was underage. After all, the funds involved in one hundred shares are not decimals. If he made a mistake, we can contact you to cancel it." Yao Jia's tone was filled with envy that could not be concealed, "Ten digits Ah, it's just running water. How many deposits are there..."
Xie Zhouyao frowned. He really didn't expect that the user who showed off his abs in his comment section but never posted on Weibo turned out to be a low-key hero.Xie Zhouyao really didn't know why he did this.He shook his head, indicating that he was also out of the situation.
The next day, Feng Baixiang issued an official announcement for the second wave of sales promotion.This time, the brand has learned to be smart, with unlimited inventory and a limit of one purchase per person. It also implemented a prepaid deposit system, trying to avoid repeating the "tragedy" of the previous night.
Netizens who watched the screen-opening event last night couldn't laugh or cry when they saw this.
"I really went to have a private chat with Mr. Long, but he didn't reply at all. He was extremely cold."
"The most hateful thing is! Boss Long bought all the inventory and refused to return the picture! Quietly keep it to yourself, what's the point!"
"Mina-sang, let's form a group to steal the autographed posters from Mr. Long's house!
"Feng Baixiang's official blog should have been bombarded by fans all night, and the customer service is probably very wronged."
"As a bowl of congee powder, I am so angry! The second wave is not a hand-signed version! There are very few people who get Zhou Zhou's autograph on the Internet!"
"Forget it, forget it, I can't compete with the boss. I'd better buy a printed version of the autographed poster, maybe after this season, it will be out of print?"
After the two waves of activities, the fame of both Xie Zhouyao and Feng Baixiang has increased.Xie Zhouyao also received the early payment for the endorsement of the advertisement.Including two-thirds of the salary of "Nine Heavens War", it adds up to hundreds of thousands, which is several times more than the total amount he earned in four years of part-time work.
When Xie Zhouyao got the money, the first thing he did was to announce the good news to Tang Zhihong and give the guide a big red envelope.
The outdoor variety show is still on schedule, and Tang Zhihong is still filming with the group.Filming in other places is very tiring and bitter, but he has been paying attention to Xie Zhouyao's development in the past few months.
Both he and Xie Zhouyao grew up in the photography base, they supported each other and were like brothers.I am also very happy to see my younger brother developing well.All kinds of encouragement in WeChat, but no red envelopes.
Xie Zhouyao didn't force it, and turned around and handed out the red envelope to his sister-in-law. The reason was "a gift for the baby who is about to be born".The Tang couple didn't refuse any more, and let Xie Zhouyao go to their home in Shanghai to play when he was free.
In WeChat, Tang Zhihong mentioned another matter.
"Tang Zhihong: Zhouyao, have you heard that Xiaoshan is going to get married? She married a second-married film and television company owner in a flash marriage. The wedding is only half a month away. She should have invited you, right? I can't go anyway, just Go to your sister-in-law, she set off from Shanghai with her friends, she can't be a bridesmaid, so she dragged her friend to Xiaoshan to be a bridesmaid."
Xie Zhouyao did receive the wedding invitation text message and was thinking about whether to go.
Xiaoshan was a girl she met when he and Tang Zhihong were taking pictures at the film and television base at the same time. She had a rare neutral style and was a big sister with a bold personality.
At that time, between photo shoots, there would always be parents who were jealous that he had a lot of filming business, and would beat him vigorously with clothes hangers in places where no one was around.He was only five years old, and he couldn't hide from it.Until one day when he was bumped into by the eight-year-old Xiaoshan, she made a big fuss by howling and shouting without any scruples. After that, no parent dared to bully him blatantly.
Xie Zhouyao replied "Yes", and added "I don't know if I should go".
Tang Zhihong saw it, and immediately called, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"
"My parents don't know where they got the news, and they will go too." Xie Zhouyao asked Xiaoshan, "It should be that Xiaoshan's parents invited other parents from the child model circle at that time, maybe my parents also heard about it. Yes. My parents already knew Xiaoshan’s parents, and when they opened their mouths, it’s impossible for Xiaoshan not to give the invitation.”
After Xie Zhouyao finished speaking, Tang Zhihong also understood a little bit.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then there was a voice again, "It's not a big deal whether you go or not. Xiaoshan knows that you and your parents are like that, so she won't make things difficult for you. It's just that if you want to go, it's no problem, it's a big deal Ignore them. In a place with so many people, they won't be asking for trouble, right?"
Xie Zhouyao thought about it and felt that it was the same.He remembered the kindness of others, Xiaoshan was still a child at the time, and took good care of him, not to mention that the wedding was a lifetime event for her, he should really attend as a friend.He immediately agreed to go with him, and after hanging up the phone, he began to prepare gifts.
The wedding came as scheduled, and a luxury hotel under the Pi's Group was chosen.Yao Jia learned that Xie Zhouyao was going to attend the wedding banquet, and the protagonist of the wedding banquet was someone from the film and television industry, so she immediately ordered a handmade suit for Xie Zhouyao, so that her own artist could attend with the most glamorous appearance.
On the same day, Xie Zhouyao went to the airport to pick up Mrs. Tang, who was pregnant and about to give birth, and they set off for the hotel together.
Tang Zhihong's wife is a standard Jiangnan girl, gentle and considerate. When she sees Xie Zhouyao, the eldest sister usually asks about her life.
"Where is it getting more and more handsome? It looks the same as before. It's the clothes arranged by the company."
"Life is pretty good. I have savings and a place to live. Don't worry, sister."
"...No, they haven't taken my money recently. I asked once, but I pushed it away."
"Your parents haven't contacted you, didn't they tell you they're coming?" Mrs. Tang asked.
The young man shook his head and didn't want to talk about this topic any more. He watched the car stop in front of the hotel and got out of the car first to help the pregnant woman.
When they entered, the wedding banquet had not yet begun.Xiaoshan stood at the door to welcome the guests, seeing the two coming, she was so excited that she almost jumped up.Seeing this, the people around her rushed to help her up, putting their hands on Xiaoshan's belly, with a nervous expression.
Mrs. Tang touched her stomach and understood in seconds.
The two pregnant women greeted each other, while Xie Zhouyao was caught by the groom's officer and chatted.There were many relatives and friends who were invited at the entrance of the auditorium. After greeting the couple, their eyes fell on Xie Zhouyao.
The tall, long-legged young man had straight shoulders and was half a head taller than the people around him.He was dressed in a slim fit suit, his short hair was neatly combed, his three-dimensional and exquisite facial features were completely exposed to the light, his eyes were bright and his teeth were bright, clean and beautiful.When he smiled, there was warmth in the end of his eyes.
The entrance of the auditorium is full of ordinary people. When a public figure stands here, others can't move their feet.Someone recognized Xie Zhouyao and quietly took out his mobile phone to take pictures.
"Zhouyao, you go in first." The newcomer said with a smile when he saw that the entrance of the auditorium, which was enough for several people to go side by side, was about to be blocked.
Xie Zhouyao was led to the infield and sat at the table next to the guest table where the parents of the newlyweds were placed.Some people had already come to the same table, seeing Xie Zhouyao, couldn't hide their amazement and surprise.
"I saw your parents, they are near the gate. The location is very ordinary, and the arrangement on the table is not as good as ours." Mrs. Tang looked around and quickly found Xie Zhouyao's parents.She turned sideways and whispered in Xie Zhouyao's ear.
Xie Zhouyao looked in the direction of Mrs. Tang's gaze, and sure enough, at a table in the far corner, a middle-aged couple was chatting with the people around them, eating and drinking, and dancing happily.
Xie Zhouyao stared at it for a few seconds, then looked away calmly, with neither joy nor anger on his face, as if he was looking at a stranger.
The wedding banquet can't start until all the people come.All eyes were looking here, Xie Zhouyao sat for a while, got up to find the lounge, and before he got closer, he heard guests chatting inside.Hearing the voices, they were all middle-aged men and women.
"Mother Qiao Qiao, did you see that? A star is coming to Xiaoshan's wedding!"
"It's Xie Zhouyao, right? When I was a child, I thought he looked like a porcelain doll, like a noble son!"
"I'm at the same table as his parents, and the family sits separately, so the relationship is not good."
"For sure! When he was a child, his parents treated him like they were oppressing labor. If I were him, I wouldn't be able to stand it."
"I went to listen and they are still complaining about Xie Zhouyao."
"What is there to complain about? Xie Zhouyao has been a child model since he was very young, and he has earned them at least ten houses, and he is directly financially free."
"I'm really envious! The God of Wealth, whom we can't even ask for, feels hot when they hold it."
Xie Zhouyao paused, turned around and wanted to leave.
The conversation in the lounge was still going on, maybe it was a lively conversation, the tone of the conversation was full of ridicule, and the voice came clearly from the half-closed door.
"By the way, have you noticed that Xie Zhouyao's mother hasn't drank any alcohol today? She doesn't eat this or that."
"How is it possible, isn't Qiu Xiaolan the one who likes playing autumn the most? I want to pack the buffet, and I always find expensive wine to drink."
"I think Qiu Xiaolan's belly is a little bit tight, maybe she's pregnant. It's not impossible to insist on getting pregnant in her forties."
"Just now his mother asked me in private, whether there is still a shortage of children in the child model industry, and whether they can find baby business..."
"Fuck! Isn't it?"
In the lounge, the chatter was interrupted abruptly, obviously everyone was shocked by this speculation.After a brief silence, people in the room couldn't help but gossip.
"That is to say, Xie Zhouyao may have more than one younger brother or younger sister?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, and want to get a huge sum of money from the child, the abacus is really loud."
"You said, as a child in the family, Xie Zhouyao would know about this?"
"I'm curious, how did that couple, who were not good-looking, give birth to a cub like Xie Zhouyao?"
"I was so cruel to him when I was a child, don't be a child in my arms."
"I used to chat with that couple. I had a second child at the time, and I asked them for a photo of Xie Zhouyao when he was born, but they couldn't give it!"
The chatter in the lounge continued, and Xie Zhouyao stood by the wall, suddenly feeling a little nauseous.He didn't want to listen any more, and walked away to the wedding banquet hall.
The wedding master of ceremonies has already stood on the stage, and the lights are turned on.Xie Zhou looked at the venue full of guests with complicated emotions.He cleaned up his expression and returned to his seat.
The guests at the table wanted to strike up a conversation with Xie Zhouyao, but they hadn't met Xie Zhouyao, so they had to find something related to the newcomer to talk about.
What mother-in-law is very kind to the bride, sending a lot of skin care products and supplements before the wedding, and also finds expensive ingredients that are priceless.The groom's last marriage broke down because the woman cheated, and the man insisted on a divorce...
Xie Zhouyao's mind was in chaos, trying to cope with others, the smile on his face froze.He was full of gossip, which went in and out of his left ear and out of his right ear, but he didn't hear anything in the end.The guests saw that Xie Zhouyao didn't respond, and they stopped talking. They went back to their seats and complained that the celebrity was indifferent.
Mrs. Tang saw that something was wrong with the people around her, so she took advantage of the gap between the emcee's speech and came over to ask.
"I just heard some things. I'm not sure yet. I'll tell you when the time comes." Xie Zhouyao knew the characters of Tang Zhihong and his wife. If they listened to what happened just now, they might not be in the mood to continue attending the wedding.
The music continued on the stage, and happy faces flashed under the spotlight.After the oath was read, there was applause, and only the bouquet throwing was left.
The happy bride Xiaoshan snatched the microphone from the master of ceremonies, stood in front of the stage, watched the roll call of the audience, regardless of the gender rules of the flower bouquet, as long as they were of the right age, both men and women would call.
Xie Zhouyao was also spotted. He straightened his clothes, stood up and walked to the edge of the crowd under the stage, meeting the bride's sly and clever eyes.
"The bouquet is here!" Xiaoshan grabbed her husband's hand and threw the bouquet into the sky.The style of the wedding banquet is Chinese style, the bouquet is composed of red roses, the fiery red ball is very dazzling.
Xie Zhouyao didn't intend to join in the fun, and found many young girls who were eager to try in the front row, so he simply moved back from the crowd, leaving the opportunity to others.Before he could take a few steps, he was smashed all over his arms by the bouquet.
The bouquet fell on his head first, bounced off, and fell straight in front of him.
Xie Zhouyao stretched out his hand subconsciously, and when he realized it, he heard people around him start booing.
"Who got it, married me within a year!" The bride turned around excitedly, "...Zhou Yao? Hahahahahahaha!"
Xie Zhouyao returned to his seat with a bouquet of roses under the attention of the audience.Mrs. Tang almost laughed out loud, and kept telling Xie Zhouyao to cherish the bouquet in her hand. The bouquets of newcomers often carry blessings of good luck, which is very auspicious.
The episode where the star snatched the bouquet made the wedding banquet lively. Until the wedding was over, there were still many guests who wanted to get to know Xie Zhouyao.
Xie Zhouyao had a hard time getting away, and then ran into his parents in the hotel corridor.
Seeing the young man coming out of the lobby, Qiu Xiaolan's eyes lit up.She grabbed her husband by her side and strode after her. She asked in a questioning tone, not even ready to call his name, "Why did you hang up the phone last time?"
The woman didn't keep her voice down, which attracted the attention of the guests around her.The young man in the corridor stood straight like a knife, out of tune with the joyous and festive atmosphere around him.
Xie Zhouyao grabbed the bouquet in his hand tightly, and the boiling emotions that had been deliberately suppressed all night calmed down for a moment.His eyes turned cold, and he didn't want to speak.
"There is indeed a need at home. I have never seen a child as impatient as you!" Qiu Xiaolan complained, rambling on.She wanted to ask Xie Zhouyao for money, but she didn't want to be left behind by the guests, so she spoke vaguely.
Xie Zhouyao didn't want to go around in circles with them, so he intentionally probed, and his eyes fell on Qiu Xiaolan's stomach, "It's been a few months? Isn't the money enough?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously touched her stomach with her hands.She went to see her husband, and then turned back to look at Xie Zhouyao in disbelief, muttering incessantly, her eyes flickering, "Wh, what a few months? Why is there no money..."
There were many well-informed guests around, who heard whispers.
As soon as Xie Zhouyao saw her clumsy performance, he knew it in his heart.He felt so powerless, the two in front of him had nothing to do with him no matter what they wanted, he didn't want to express his opinion, let alone participate any more.
He walked away, regardless of the movement behind him, carefully entrusted Mrs. Tang, who was in labor, to the bride, and after calling Tang Zhihong, he left the hotel sullenly and hailed a car to go home.
It was near zero, the neighborhood was quiet, and there was no one in the corridor.Xie Zhouyao pressed the elevator and reached out to rub his forehead wearily.
The elevator dinged, and Xie Zhouyao cheered up.When he stepped out of the elevator, he saw a knee-high bag on the ground in front of his door.There is a note hanging on the edge of the big bag.
Xie Zhouyao squatted down and took a look. He bought a variety of vacuum-packed ingredients in the big bag. On the top layer of the bag was abalone, sea cucumber and scallops. Not the usual grade you can buy in supermarkets.
"I knocked on the door, but you don't seem to be at home. These ingredients are used for cooking porridge. I checked and found that they are not precious but they can be eaten. Thank you for the hospitality last time. I should be back very late, so there is no need to wait."
The handwriting on the note is upturned, vigorous and bold, and the strokes are arbitrary, but neat.Seeing words is like seeing people, Xie Zhouyao imagined the owner of the handwriting in his mind.
He rubbed his fingers on the note, then turned his head to look at the opposite door in a squatting position.When he turned his head again, all the haze accumulated in his eyes dissipated, leaving only a smile.
Xie Zhouyao had never received such a thankful and heartfelt return. He stared at the bag for a long time, rubbed his eyes and stood up, took a deep breath, and laughed happily in the stairwell by himself.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the bouquet in his hand, and thought of Mrs. Tang saying that a bouquet of flowers represents good luck and blessings, so he simply picked the best-looking one, pulled it out from the bouquet, and carefully placed it on the doorknob of Bingyi's house. .
...and then when opening the door to his own house, he was very gentle, for fear that the movement here would shake Bingyi's door and make the flowers fall from the handle.
In the middle of the night, when the man came back after working overtime, the first thing he saw was to see if the bag next door was still there, but the second thing he saw was a flower on his door.
The red roses are beautiful, but they are a little dehydrated and their petals are drooping.
Bingyi twirled the flower branch, the emotion in his eyes was so strong that it was about to overflow.He walked to Xie Zhouyao's door, raised his hand to knock on the door, thought it was getting late, put it down again, and finally returned to his side with the flower.
A faint blue light flashed, and the flower stood upright out of thin air, its petals trembled, and the curly edges stretched out, restoring its relaxed and blooming posture.
The cold air spread from the man's fingertips, swallowing the whole flower in an instant.The transparent ice condenses, and the rose stays at the most beautiful moment forever.
