Time came to the end of 2007 without realizing it, and soon it was 2008. In the entire 2007, Li Xiangping had his last important game, which was the "Sanxing Cup" three-game final with Gu Dali.

Because two Chinese chess players met in the final, Samsung felt it was boring, so the competition was simply held in Shanghai, China, from December 26 to 29. However, before that, Li Xiangping still needed to participate in a large-scale event in the entertainment industry, which was a fashion ceremony held by several major domestic fashion magazines.

Two days before the event, Li Xiangping led Yaya, and then accompanied by stepmother Lin Yiran, he came to the large shopping mall that was about to open in Jianguomen to select evening dresses to attend the event.

"This is Armani, this is Versace, this is... Gucci," Lin Yiran introduced to Li Xiangping with a little show:

"Xiangping, do you think that's good?"

Li Xiangping felt a little dazzled for a moment.

As a time traveler, he knew that it was probably from this time that our country gradually became the largest luxury consumer market in the world--------

Some people are extremely angry about this, and some are full of emotion about it. Li Xiangping personally feels that there is no need to make such a fuss. This situation at least shows that the whole country is getting richer and richer. If you can afford clothes worth ten thousand yuan, it is better to be more careful than buying clothes worth one hundred yuan.

Well, although Li Xiangping himself, he actually couldn't tell the difference between a 10,000-yuan clothing and a 100-yuan clothing.

Of course, Lin Yiran knew that he didn't know much about the difference, so she specially brought two staff members today, two domestic fashion circles, one man and one woman. These two will soon become employees of the company and will be under Lao Jiang as the brand director and fashion director of the fashion department of the Jianguomen Shopping Mall in the future.

"Come on, Xiao Zhang, please give me some advice. What clothes do you think are suitable for our Xiangping?"

Seeing that Li Xiangping seemed a little dazzled, Lin Yiran started to click, and the "Xiao Zhang" she mentioned was actually a man over 30 years old and the future brand director.

"Xiao Zhang" looks quite good at making trouble. When he saw Lin Yiran, he didn't say anything else, and he would come up and give Li Xiangping a rainbow fart.

I saw him pretending to look at Li Xiangping up and down:

"Tsk tsk, Xiangping is really a natural clothes rack for this figure, and there is no problem with wearing anything. By the way, Gucci Group is also planning to find a brand agent in the Asia-Pacific region. I think there is anything else to look for, so I can simply recommend Xiangping to endorse..."

After finishing shooting Rainbow Fart, "Xiao Zhang" began to show his professional knowledge. He began to introduce the characteristics and advantages and disadvantages of several major luxury brands in an easy-to-understand manner.

Unfortunately, he cast a glamorous look on the blind man. Li Xiangping was not interested in this at all. If it weren't for Lin Yiran's look of enthusiasm, Li Xiangping would have been going to yawn.

Luo Li was talking a lot, and maybe even Lin Yiran was annoyed, so he found an opportunity to interrupt him and asked him to give him a suggestion directly.

"Haha, I just said that Xiangping is a natural clothes rack, and these sets are fine, but if I have to recommend them, I recommend this set..."

"Xiao Zhang" pointed his hand at the Gucci.

"Gucci may be a bit inappropriate."

However, at this moment, another female consultant spoke up, and she directly rejected the male consultant's suggestion.

"Oh, why Oda?"

Only then did Lin Yiran turn his attention to the female consultant.

The fashion director known as "Oda" smiled at Lin:

"Sister Lin may not know yet. Gucci has a very good market among Africans, so in the fashion industry, this brand is also called a black brand."

"ah?!"

"Director Tian" continued: "Yes, in the past few years, did not NBA launch a fashion order, requiring those NBA players to wear formal clothes when they are not playing. Oh, Sister Lin, you may not know that Gucci is really a favorite of black people. Among the 10 NBA stars, 8 of them wear this brand."

"That's it... Then, what do you think about Xiangping yourself."

Li Xiangping swears that he is not a racist, but don’t forget that he is a Go player, playing this kind of game full of Eastern wisdom and philosophy, which is of course far from the temperament of the muscles and sticks of NBA.

"Haha, that might be a bit inappropriate."

“Yes, it’s not suitable at all.”

When he said this, Lin Yiran looked at "Xiao Zhang" in anger, as if he was blaming him for coming up with a bad idea, and then his interest turned to the "Xiao Tian":

"Then Oda, tell me, which set of clothes do you think are good?"

Li Xiangping could see that the two directors seemed to be quite excited. When he heard Lin Yiran's questioning, Director Tian first glanced at Director Zhang proudly, and then said to Lin Yiran with affection:

"Sister Lin, you see, these are all Italian brands. Although in the fashion industry, there is a saying that men's clothing is Italy and women's clothing is France, but this is not absolute. Other brands actually have many good men's clothing, especially..."

When he said this, Director Tian turned his attention to Yaya:

"Didn't Xiangping walk the red carpet with this lady this time? Tsk tsk, handsome man and beautiful woman, the two of them are really compatible when they stand together. I think this is the case, let's have a couple outfit. This time, there are a lot of couple outfits, so let's choose the best couple outfit."

"Haha, this idea is good..."

Lin Yiran laughed loudly, but Li Xiangping looked dark after hearing this.

He began to worry about his own business, why did he find such two unreliable directors and also wear couple outfits? Your sister's wear for couple outfits. Originally, he resisted such activities, and the most annoying thing was that others were eating melons, but this guy was so good that he even came up with such a bad idea. He had to wear such a couple outfit, which would make others taste better.

It’s a pity that he is not very familiar with these two people at the moment, so Li Xiangping is not convenient to refuse in person, so he secretly winked at Yaya and signaled her to say no to refuse.

But she didn't expect that Yaya was looking at her with anticipation. She seemed to be looking forward to wearing couple outfits.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Yaya, but after all, she has been dating for more than a year, so she can still understand Li Xiangping's eyes:

"Ah! Couple outfit? No, no, we are not couples..."

At this time, Lin Yiran also reacted. She knew that Li Xiangping didn't want to announce the relationship between them to the public, so she changed her words:

"Haha couple outfits may still be inappropriate. It's right for the two to act as couples on TV, but that's a TV series after all, isn't it? Is it not suitable or not..."

Two suggestions have been rejected in succession, and of course the selection work can only start from a new beginning. Fortunately, even shopping malls are opened by their own homes. In order to open up the Chinese market, foreign fashion groups still attach more importance to this upcoming shopping mall, so there is sufficient supply, so there is no need to worry about not having to choose.

However, the next selection work is mainly Yaya's women's clothing. After all, women's dresses are of course much more troublesome than men's dresses, so Li Xiangping suggested that Yaya choose first. After she chooses, it's not too late to choose one. Anyway, just walk the red carpet. Just don't have too much contrast between the two sets of clothes and it seems completely out of place.

Even so, it took several hours to make up after all this trouble - it wasn't just about picking clothes, but also putting on makeup. That is, after Yaya picked up the clothes, she had to make a look for her, which was suitable for the style of that dress.

Several women were in high spirits. From Lin Yiran to Yaya herself and Director Tian, ​​they kept chatting, but Li Xiangping yawned and almost fell asleep in the mall.

After finally finishing my work, it was already evening. After dinner, I returned to Wudaokou Apartment, it was completely dark.

"Okay, okay, isn't it just a couple outfit? Let's talk about it after you graduate. No, it's better to wait until I graduate from Peking University. By that time, you can buy any kind of couple outfit you want."

Yaya hugged Li Xiangping's neck:

"That's what you said."

"Yes, yes, I said, by the way, are there any couple outfits in underwear? It's not convenient for us to wear couple outfits outside, so it's still okay to have couple outfits in underwear."

"You, you hooligan..."

So, he had to ask Shi Daqi Saint to leave his body again.

On the third day, for the sake of making money at home, Li Xiangping attended the fashion ceremony as promised.

Without any other feelings, Li Xiangping just felt like he had become a mascot again.

Countless people have come to their side, and those male and female celebrities dressed up in costumes have tried to get close to themselves regardless of whether they recognize them or not.

By the way, there are also photos. Li Xiangping didn’t know how many handsome men and beautiful women took photos with him. After one show, his face almost froze.

Of course, Li Xiangping would not naively think that he is really that popular.

First of all, I still rely on Go’s entrustedness, because Go’s social image is good, so my social image will also be better.

At least it is better than the social image of most people in the entertainment industry.

In this way, as long as the stars are not stupid, they will naturally be happy.

Secondly, I have long said that I will not be involved in the entertainment industry in the future, so that I will have no competitive relationship with the men and women present.

If you take a photo with a celebrity with a good social image without competition, as long as you have the conditions, people in the entertainment industry will naturally be willing to do so.

Finally, because of family and Zhao Jiadong's relationship - although not everyone understands it now, this is not a secret after all, right? So now there is such an opportunity to get close to you, of course everyone in the entertainment industry wants to seize it.

"Oh, mascot, but for the sake of money, mascot is just mascot. I tolerate it, I will continue to endure it..."

After becoming a mascot, you need to get back to the topic. The days of the "Samsung Cup" finals are coming soon.

On Christmas Day, Li Xiangping and Gu Dali set off from the capital and headed to Shencheng to participate in this three-game chess competition.
Chapter completed!
