Wilderness Livestream: Other People Struggle to Survive While I Became Famous by Looking After a Cat

Chapter 114: The Cooperation Has Been Cancelled

Translator: Zayn_

On the day of the annual celebrity awards ceremony.

The awards ceremony would start at eight o’clock in the evening, and the ceremony would probably have to wait until around ten o’clock.

This event was especially important to all the celebrities, and many people were eager to outshine the crowd on the red carpet.

Therefore, the team behind the artiste had already started making all sorts of preparations in the morning.

Chen Lan was no exception.

Shengshi Entertainment had just “opened” and had yet to find suitable staff. She had to take care of everything.

Xu Xingzhou and Jiang Xuyan were both male artists, so she didn’t need to worry about their styling. Jiang Xuyan’s assistant could handle it.

In comparison, female artistes were much more troublesome.

Haute Couture[l] was essential if one wanted to be in the limelight on the red carpet.

However, Song Qingyou couldn’t afford most of the haute couture gowns. Even if she could, she was a third-rate artist, so they might not sell them to her.

Fortunately, there was a new domestic haute couture brand that took a fancy to Song Qingyou’s looks and figure and agreed to cooperate with Song Qingyou to let her wear their new gown on the red carpet.

Chen Lan stood at the entrance of the company for a long time until her legs were sore before she returned to the office.

“Logically speaking, they should have sent the gowns over by now. All the stylists we booked have called…”

Before she could finish her sentence, her phone rang.

Chen Lan turned around and walked out.

In less than two minutes, she returned.

“What’s wrong?” Song Qingyou was sitting in front of her computer, talking to a professor at A University about her thesis.

“The gown won’t be delivered!” Chen Lan was furious. “Obviously they came to us themselves, but they didn’t say the cooperation was canceled until the award ceremony was about to start. They are basically bullying people!” “Someone ordered them to do it, right?” Song Qingyou understood.

“Then it can only be Shen Xiyan.” Chen Lan said, “I just looked at their official Weibo and the spokesperson was suddenly changed to Shen Xiyan.”

“Where are we going to find a haute couture gown in such a short time? If you wear an ordinary gown and walk the red carpet, you might be laughed at…” Chen Lan paced around the office anxiously. She even thought of contacting those people whom she had only met a few times.

Song Qingyou glanced at the time and unhurriedly searched for this brand:

“Doesn’t the main designer of this brand have a rival?”

“What rival?”

Chen Lan leaned over to look at the computer page.

The haute couture brand that had taken the initiative to seek cooperation with her was called Emil. It had just risen to prominence in the first half of the year and was in the limelight at the International Fashion Week.

Opposing Emil was Kyushu, which focuses on improving its national style.

The two designers probably had a long-standing grudge. Each of their fashion shows had the same date and theme, and they had even publicly dissed each other.

Chen Lan used to specialize in managing new artistes and had never come into contact with fashion resources, so she was not familiar with these things.

However, she could not care less. She immediately contacted the designers from Kyushu.

Unexpectedly, the call really went through.

Just as Chen Lan was about to speak, Song Qingyou took the phone away.

“Hello, Ms. Liang Ting, I’m Song Qingyou.”

“I’ve heard of you.” The voice on the other end of the phone was hoarse and sounded like a male voice.

Before Song Qingyou could explain her intentions, Liang Ting had already guessed, “Emil canceled the collaboration with you at the last minute, so you came to look for me?”

“Even that trashy brand doesn’t want to work with you. What makes you think 1’11 agree?”

Song Qingyou looked at the data she had found and smiled.

“With that rubbish brand stepping on your head, you want them to collapse, and 1 want that too.”

Liang Ting didn’t say anything. Clearly, she didn’t think that this could be the reason for their cooperation.

Song Qingyou had expected this and continued, “I can establish a free long-term cooperation with Kyushu until Emil disappears.”

Perhaps Song Qingyou’s current commercial value wasn’t enough for a high-end brand endorsement, but that might not be the case in the future.

Moreover, it was now the era of sales. Even the high-end brands had to compromise, and Kyushu was already on a downward trend.

Liang Ting was silent for a long time. She looked at Song Qingyou’s information and photos several times.

“I do have a gown that you can wear.”

This meant that she agreed.

Half an hour later, the gown arrived.

Song Qingyou didn’t expect Liang Ting to come personally.

She looked more like a strong woman than a designer.

When she saw Song Qingyou, her eyes were filled with amazement.

“You look much better than your photo. You won’t waste my gown.”

The gown in Liang Ting’s hand was handmade by her.

Because she didn’t make it to the fashion show, she hadn’t “published” it yet.

Originally, Liang Ting had come personally to discuss a collaboration with Song Qingyou.

In the end, when she saw her in person, she couldn’t wait to let her wear the gown she designed, wanting to see the final effect.

If it wasn’t for Song Qingyou’s reluctance, she would have dressed her up herself.

Song Qingyou changed her clothes in the changing room while discussing the collaboration with Liang Ting.

Chen Lan was not idle either.

Long before Liang Ting arrived, Song Qingyou had instructed her to continue contacting other high-end brands to make requests for purchases or collaborations.

This was Song Qingyou’s plan to confuse Shen Xiyan.

Unsurprisingly, all those brands rejected her.

On the other side.

Shen Xiyan was impatiently trying on all kinds of haute couture from Emil.

“I don’t like this color.”

“This one doesn’t suit my skin color.”

“This is too hard to wear. Pass.”

“This one doesn’t look good. What was the designer thinking?”

Shen Xiyan felt that there was something wrong with the clothes that she was wearing.

Fortunately, the designer had already been called away by his assistant. Otherwise, his face would have turned dark.

Tao Mi, who was at the side, was so busy that she was covered in sweat and her hands were sore.

The manager, Mo Zhenping, was tired from watching. “Xiyan, I see that you’re not satisfied with this brand of clothes. Why don’t you change it to something else?”

“With your status, there’s no need for you to compete with a new high-end brand.”

With Shen Xiyan’s family background and status, any brand that understood the Chinese market would cooperate with her. Why would she insist on a domestic haute couture brand?

“Who said I was competing?”

Shen Xiyan frowned and threw down another piece. “Even if I wear a gunny sack, I’ll look good. It’s not that 1 can’t wear these clothes. 1 just want to find the best one!”

Mo Zhenping nodded. “You can continue. I’m just giving a casual suggestion. 1 don’t mean anything else.”

He and Tao Mi knew very well that Shen Xiyan felt that if Song Qingyou could work with Emil, she could too!

Shen Xiyan snorted coldly. “I asked you to find out about Song Qingyou’s situation. Have you done that?”

“For the time being, no haute couture brands have contacted Song Qingyou.” Mo Zhenping replied, “Her manager took the initiative to contact some brands, but they kept hitting a wall.”

Shen Xiyan heard this and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but curl up. “Of course they’ll hit a wall!”

“Some people don’t even look at whether they’re worthy of wearing haute couture! Moreover, she has already sent all her money to the hospital and started a company. She’s so poor that she can’t even afford it!”

“I just hope she’ll have the courage to come to the awards ceremony, hehe.”
