Chapter 1362 Fashion Queen
In the future, 20th Century Fox produced a fashion movie called "The Devil Wears Prada."
This movie, with an investment of more than 30 million US dollars, finally reached a global box office of 350 million US dollars, which can be called a miracle.
The heroine who stars in this movie, the fashion queen and the big devil, happens to be Aunt May, one of the candidates for the Best Actress Oscar this year.
She also received another Oscar nomination for her performance in "The Devil Wears Prada".
Yin Jun has watched the movie and even read the book by the original author.
So Yin Jun knew who this big devil was referring to.
Her name is Anna Wintour.
There are two top figures in the fashion industry in this world.
The first is the artistic director of Chanel and Fendi, one of the most famous designers in the world, Karl Lagerfeld known as Galeries Lafayette.
A genius like Karl Lagerfeld is simply invincible in the fashion design industry. For decades, no one has been as energetic, full of creative aspirations, and as excellent and stable as him.
It is not surprising that such a person has become one of the world's leading fashion godfathers.
But the selection of the second person is a bit surprising to outsiders.
She is Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of the American version of "VOGUE" magazine.
As the editor-in-chief of a magazine and not one of those talented art masters, how could she become the queen of the fashion industry?
the reason is simple.
She is always at the forefront of trends, she can always bring people a lot of new and trendy things, she can always succeed in the fashion industry, and she can grasp the pulse of the times faster than others.
To put it more bluntly, Anna Wintour has a pair of eyes that appreciate beauty. She can always grasp the most shining core point in an instant, and her vision is unparalleled.
She is different from Tina Brown, whose shining moment only lasted a decade or so.
But since Anna Wintour took up the position of editor-in-chief of the US edition of "VOGUE" magazine in the late 1980s, she has firmly controlled the US edition of "VOGUE" magazine for 30 years, making it a The world's number one fashion magazine, no one has ever surpassed it.
When Yin Jun thought about working on "Vanity Fair", he thought of the American version of "VOGUE" magazine, which is even more powerful than "Vanity Fair", and thought of Anna Wintour.
After a little research, Yin Jun learned that Anna Wintour is now working in New York magazine as the director of the fashion and lifestyle section.
For such a great talent, Yin Jun will definitely not let him go.
We already have Vanity Fair anyway, so what’s not to do with the world’s top fashion and lifestyle magazine?
Although they are both categories of fashion and lifestyle, Vanity Fair is more focused on entertainment, while the new magazine is more focused on fashion. The two compete with each other and occupy each other's respective niches for development. This is definitely a good thing for the Kirin Group. .
As for such trivial matters as having two fashion magazines under its banner at the same time, there is no problem at all.
The company controlled by the Newhouse family owns more than 120 magazines and newspapers!
When Yin Jun started these two magazines, he definitely did not just want to occupy the trend, occupy the mainstream voice, and have channels to express his voice.
He also wants to slowly introduce Xiangjiang and the entire country of China to the world through his two magazines.
Let them all see the beauty of China and the goodness of China.
Instead of letting those disgusting Western media arbitrarily smear China.
In the eyes of some people, no matter how great achievements the Chinese people have made, they are still a backward and ignorant nation with pigtails.
If Yin Jun guides them from the front and lets them know more about the development, progress and various achievements of China, I dare not say that there will be a complete change, but there will be some changes slowly. It is also worth making Yin Jun happy and worth letting. He goes and does it seriously.
Even if it takes decades to do it, it's worth it.
This is also a kind of cultural output, and it is also a kind of conceptual output, just like Yin Jun’s cultural output through movies.
Unlike Grayton Carter, Anna Wintour hung up the phone directly after receiving a call from Yin Jun and hearing Yin Jun tell her identity.
After calling three times, Anna Wintour didn't listen to Yin Junduo.
The longest time, she just listened to Yin Jun say that he wanted to invite her to Los Angeles to talk about a new magazine, but then he didn't say anything and just hung up the phone with a bang.
The young man was a little strange. After all, he was also a world-class rich man and genius. Why did Anna Wintour look so disdainful?
Did she think she had met a liar?
According to legend, this fashion queen is famous for her bad temper and stubbornness.
If she subconsciously thinks that she is a liar, then no matter how much she calls, it will not help.
But who told Yin Jun to be so thirsty for talents?
Knowing that this is a super strong woman who can lead a magazine to the top of the world, it is simply impossible for you to ask Yin Jun to give up on her.
So Yin Jun simply flew from Los Angeles to New York with Sophie Marceau.
Sophie Marceau has completely started to get along with each other as a couple recently. She doesn't arrange any work matters, she just likes to stay with Yin Jun, and she happily agrees to such long-distance travel.
Hearing that Yin Jun was going to visit a female magazine director and wanted to invite her to take charge of a new magazine, Sophie Marceau became interested and clamored to go with Yin Jun.
Thinking that Sophie Marceau is also a beautiful woman, maybe Anna Wintour's eyes will light up and increase her favorability, so Yin Jun agreed.
It just so happened that when the two took a taxi to the New York magazine building, they happened to see a lot of white-collar workers coming out of it talking and laughing.
Look at the time, it's half past twelve noon, it should be lunch time.
Westerners’ lunch is actually very casual.
Usually you just eat a set meal, such as burgers, pasta, salads, etc., and most of them are accompanied by coffee.
A little more particular about eating nutritious lunch.
The building where the "New York" magazine headquarters is located is not in Manhattan, but it is also a bustling office area. Most of the men and women passing by are very well-dressed and have a sense of prosperity.
Everyone poured out of the elevator, but Yin Jun didn't go upstairs yet, wanting to see if he could find Anna Wintour to come out for dinner as well.
Anna Wintour is the most recognizable woman, because she has not changed her hairstyle since she was 16 years old - mushroom hair. As long as you look for this, it is easy to distinguish.
Yin Jun was looking at others, and the white-collar workers coming and going also looked at him and Sophie Marceau from time to time.
Yin Jun, an Oriental, is not very recognizable, but Sophie Marceau, wearing sunglasses and a scarf, attracted a lot of people's attention.
Known as the most beautiful woman in France, and even the most beautiful woman in the world during her peak period, this little girl’s appearance is needless to say. Even with half of her cheeks covered, you can still see her true nature. Come.
So, in just a few minutes, Sophie Marceau was approached by seven or eight people.
Don't get me wrong, they are not here to poach you.
Firstly, Yin Jun and Sophie Marceau were intertwined with each other, and secondly, there were five or six tough men in black suits standing behind them. It was obvious at a glance that they were from wealthy families, and they would not be so reckless even if they wanted to pick up girls.
They were all from magazines, and they came to ask Sophie Marceau if she wanted to interview as a model or cover girl.
There happened to be a man who claimed to be the editor of New York magazine, so Yin Jun asked him with bright eyes, "Will Miss Anna Wintour come out for dinner?"
"Her?" The forty-year-old man frowned, "Maybe, who knows?"
Yin Jun smiled unconsciously.
Anna Wintour's bad temper seems to be unpopular from now on.
When another idler left in disappointment, Yin Jun's eyes suddenly lit up while he was looking around. He pulled Sophie Marceau and walked forward.
Anna Wintour was thinking about a column manuscript this afternoon. Suddenly, her vision went dark and someone blocked her path. She subconsciously stopped and looked up.
Seeing Anna Wintour's angry and confused eyes, Yin Jun smiled and stretched out his hand: "Ms. Wintour, I am Yin Jun, the chairman of the Kirin Group who has called you in the past two days. I am very happy to meet you. you!"
"Qilin Group...Yin Jun..."
Anna Wintour immediately thought of it, with a half-smile on her face, and did not reach out, "You are so committed, what more lies do you want to say? I will listen to you now! After you finish speaking, get out of here, don't stop me. !”
Yin Jun originally brought his own passport.
But suddenly he thought of the beauty beside him, so he took off Sophie Marceau's sunglasses, revealing her charming face.
Anna Wintour's eyes suddenly lit up.
She is a woman with a top fashion sense. Of course, she can recognize Sophie Marceau's national beauty and heavenly fragrance at a glance.
This face was completely flawless, making the woman feel a little excited and ashamed when she saw it.
Then she also recognized Sophie Marceau.
After all, "Juno" has triggered heated discussions across the United States. As the youngest Oscar candidate for Best Actress in recent years, Kirin Group's publicity campaign some time ago also gave Sophie Marceau a lot of space. She has appeared in many fashion magazines.
Anna Wintour saw the two holding hands just now, and now she recognized Sophie Marceau. Anna Wintour, a smart person, immediately thought of what Yin Jun meant by doing this.
He is proving his identity!
Regardless of whether this person is Mr. Jun, the chairman of the Kirin Group and a genius, if he can make Sophie Marceau be led obediently like this, he is not an ordinary person.
Even relying on her own intuition, Anna Wintour now believes that the oriental boy in front of her is the genius Mr. Jun who is admired and praised all over the world.
