Chapter 1363 Let’s Make History!
Thinking of this, she stretched out her hand generously, "Hello, I'm Anna Wintour. I think we can find a place to have a cup of coffee, what do you think?"
She unconsciously used honorifics because even though she thought she was a genius, she knew that she was nowhere near as talented as Yin Jun.
Yin Jun, who put on his sunglasses again for Sophie Marceau, smiled and shook her hand, "Actually, this is what I want to say, please, Miss Wintour!"
"You can call me Anna." Anna Wintour pursed her lips and smiled, "Please follow me!"
She nodded to Sophie Marceau, turned around and headed in the opposite direction to where she wanted to go.
Following her, a few people turned around two streets and entered a relatively closed small street. The atmosphere here was obviously lazier. Many stores were not open yet, and there were no customers in front of the few coffee shops that were open. .
After walking into one of the coffee shops, Anna Wintour greeted the boss familiarly, took Yin Jun and Sophie Marceau to sit down, and after ordering coffee drinks, she laughed.
"It is said that Mr. Jun has a weird temper. He doesn't drink coffee or alcohol. He only likes to drink milk tea or juice..." Anna Wintour said with a smile, "For someone like you, are you afraid that others will say that you have no style and are out of tune with this era? "
"That's because they can't truly own themselves." Yin Jun said, "Only sheep gather, tigers always walk alone."
"Ha ha!"
Anna Wintour clapped her hands and said, "Interesting! Not bad! With your talent, no one in the world can let you cater to them. You are uniquely proud!"
"They say Anna, you are a arrogant and indifferent woman. I didn't expect you to be so good at talking." Yin Jun laughed, "It's better to meet in person than hearsay."
"It depends on the right person." Anna Wintour was also very straightforward. "Facing a strong person like you who I can't surpass, I can only surrender. But those who have no talent but pretend to be Of course I look down on people who think they are great.”
Yin Jun nodded.
Anna Wintour's character is typically extreme.
Admiring those who are stronger than oneself and looking down on those who are incompetent, and showing it so obviously, is an extreme.
But to be honest, in this world, if you are not a person with such distinctive characteristics, you will not be able to do anything at all.
Those mediocre people can only live a mediocre life and will not achieve any great achievements.
"Since you no longer doubt my identity, let's start talking about things." Yin Jun said, "I don't like to beat around the bush when doing things. That's what I told you on the phone. Come over and help me, and I'll give you a prescription." A new fashion magazine, you are in charge of everything yourself. No matter what you want to do, who you want to recruit, or what you need, I have no problem."
Of course, Anna Wintour also knows that Yin Jun is a world-class rich man and a Hollywood giant. The above-mentioned financial commitment is of course no problem.
But she was not busy replying.
Picking up the coffee that was delivered, she took a sip first and then said slowly, "It just so happens that a few days ago, the head of the Newhouse family also came to recruit me and wanted me to take charge of a job." Their magazine... the conditions are similar to those of yours. I was already interested, but suddenly Mr. Jun came in person, which made me a little flattered."
She was right.
After several phone calls went unanswered and she was rudely rejected, Yin Jun actually flew over from Los Angeles to find her immediately. Such courtesy was definitely not simple.
At least it fully illustrates the importance Yin Jun attaches to her.
The attention of a super rich man is nothing to worry about. Shiyi Newhouse is also a rich man, not much different than Yin Jun.
But Yin Jun's other identity - a talented writer, director, and media planner, obviously has a more important position in Anna Wintour's heart.
She was certainly honored to be valued and appreciated by a genius recognized by the world.
"I am different from Mr. Newhouse." Yin Jun shook his head, "He is a businessman, and he only does business to make money. And I want you to make this magazine, and you just need to make it the best in the industry. Don’t worry about anything else. This is the only request I have for you.”
Anna Wintour turned her head and looked at the boy, "Even if I spend a lot of money, even if many of my systems look rebellious to others, even if there are voices scolding me everywhere, even if my grades are not good within three to five years , you won’t waver either?”
"Won't."
Yin Jun pointed at himself and then at her, "We are all the same type of people. We do things seriously and responsibly. This is obviously different from those who just get by. As I said just now, a warrior always walks alone. Yes, those weak ones will only drag you down on the way forward, and listening to their words is of no use at all."
Staring at Yin Jun again for a moment, Anna Wintour pursed her lips and laughed, "I found that I started to like you. You really know how to speak! You speak so nicely!"
Sophie Marceau rolled her eyes when she heard this. Although she knew that this kind of liking was not that of a lover, she felt that this woman's eyes were too aggressive.
"If you want a guarantee for what I said, you can write it into the work contract." Yin Jun said, "I believe in my vision. You are a person who makes history! Go and make history bravely!"
"You said so..."
Anna Wintour nodded and said, "It is much more challenging to build a magazine from scratch than to take over an old magazine."
After a pause, she added, "But if we don't have old resources, I'm afraid it will be very difficult at the beginning!"
"If you want to do something well, what's not difficult?" Yin Jun asked, "Are you afraid of difficulties?"
"Not afraid."
Anna Wintour laughed again, "They say Mr. Jun is gentle and a typical gentleman. I didn't expect you to be so radical at heart... But I like it very much!"
"I don't understand fashion, but you do." Yin Jun said, "I provide logistical support, and it's you who are fighting at the front, so it's Anna who has the harder work! Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. of."
"I have no doubt about this. We all know Mr. Jun's reputation in this regard." Anna Wintour said.
Westerners are not as shy as Easterners when it comes to negotiating rewards for doing things.
In their view, it is only natural that they should receive reasonable remuneration for the amount of work they have put in.
So they are not shy about talking about salary prices.
Yin Jun is famous for making money together.
As long as any company under the Kirin Group makes money, Yin Jun will definitely pay dividends.
The Kirin Group's dividend ratio has always been the highest in Hollywood.
This is one of the reasons why the other six giant companies in Hollywood do not compete with the Kirin Group very much now.
Because Disney and United Artists provide a lot of money, actors, directors, and producers all want to cooperate with them, and you can't suppress them even if you want.
Even though Anna Wintour is a woman, her decisiveness is stronger than that of Graydon Carter.
After drinking the rest of the coffee in the cup, Anna Wintour made a decision, "Give me a month, I will handle the work at hand, and then I can start a new one... I really have to do it alone." Do?"
"If you want to recruit more people, that's okay." Yin Jun said, "The company will only ask an accounting firm to review financial expenses. I will tell them to try to give you priority in allocating funds to you. If there are any specific If you have any difficulties, you can call me directly and I will solve it."
"good!"
Westerners think it is normal for financial audits. No matter how generous the boss is, he will care about his own assets. There is nothing wrong with this.
Anna Wintour asked again, "Mr. Jun, what kind of magazine do you think we should create?... You are a genius, and your suggestions may inspire my ideas."
"I think "VOGUE" is good." Yin Jun said, "A comprehensive fashion and lifestyle magazine is more suitable for young people and the middle class in the future. Because life is always diverse, magazines that are too single can no longer It meets their needs. They will need to see more, richer and more fashionable things in a magazine.”
Anna Wintour blinked, "Boss, you don't know, right? Mr. Newhouse invited me to work for them as the creative director of "VOGUE". Now when we make a magazine, we have to use them as our target and target." Opponent, do you feel a little bit fateful?"
Yin Jun smiled brightly, "Isn't this great? You can show the world that you alone can defeat "VOGUE"! All their elites and fashionistas are nothing in front of you! You alone People can crush them!”
"Yes, that's what I think!" Anna Wintour's eyes flashed with crazy light, "I have wanted to do a big career since I was a child. Now that I have such an opportunity, I will let them know that in the fashion industry , no old brand is guaranteed to be the most fashionable! Even if I use a new magazine, I can become the number one in the industry! By then, my name, Anna Wintour, will be known all over the world!"
"There will be a day." Yin Jun nodded and said, "I also look forward to the day when you will be crowned king!"
The young man was not trusting her blindly. This was a fact that had already happened in his previous life.
In the fashion world, apart from Lafayette, there is really no one who can compare with Anna Wintour.
Seeing that Yin Jun not only did not say that her dream was too amazing, but instead took it for granted, Anna Wintour felt even more relieved.
She was extremely satisfied that she could make a clean decision and join the new magazine that Yin Jun mentioned.
It is definitely a blessing to have such an interesting boss who is also confident in himself!
Compared with the autocratic maniac like Shi Yi Newhouse, Mr. Jun is more suitable to be a boss!
