Chapter 1302 Three Questions of the Devil

At noon the next day, Liu Yun went to the "vogue" company in person and invited Anna Wintour out for lunch.

When they arrived at the reserved restaurant, Yang Cheng and Bi Xiafu had already been waiting for a long time.

Yang Cheng personally went to NBC to pick up Bixia Fulai from the restaurant, and she was responsible for sending it back after dinner.

Today, Bishafu wore a smart suit with a white silk shirt inside, her long hair coiled up high, and pointed high heels on her feet, fully interpreting the style of a strong woman in the workplace.

When they were in the car, Yang Cheng also expressed high praise for Bishafu's outfit.

Lunch is at asiate restaurant in Mandarin Oriental, this new American restaurant is known as the back garden restaurant in New York. It sits on one of the most beautiful restaurants in the world. It is located on the 35th floor, overlooking Central Park and the Manhattan skyline while dining , is definitely a kind of enjoyment. Of course, it is not the best time to view the scenery. The charming sunset and the first ten minutes of the lanterns are the most beautiful moments.

When Liu Yun and Anna Wintour were not here, Yang Cheng and Bi Xiafu enjoyed the fascinating scenery in advance.

"It's so beautiful, but it's a pity that Francis didn't come." Bishafu said regretfully.

Yang Cheng was dissatisfied, "hey, are you ignoring me too much?"

Amused by Yang Cheng's aggrieved expression, Bixiafu got up and sat on Yang Cheng's floor, reaching out to hold his arm, "Is this okay?"

These second-generation New Yorkers who are about the same age have grown up together since they were young. They have never made any kind of jokes. This is not a big deal. Bishafu is only one year older than Yang Cheng, "Not bad~"

Bishafu smiled and patted him. It seemed that her boyfriend was not there, and the scale was relaxed. Americans are like this. Before getting married, who can guarantee 100% loyalty to whom? The most important thing is to be happy. Of course, after marriage, you should pay attention to it, except for playing with each other!

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen my mother for a few days, and I still miss her." Bishafu leaned gently on Yang Cheng, her eyes drifting into the distance along the lush Central Park.

"Huh? You moved out from home?" Yang Cheng asked.

"I moved out a long time ago. In fact, Anna doesn't approve of me being with Francis. She had conflicts with Frank, Francis' father." Bishafu said helplessly.

"So she stopped you?"

Bishafu shook her head,

"No, Anna will never do that. She just expresses her attitude, but she doesn't pursue any decision to stop me."

Yang Cheng nodded thoughtfully. At this moment, he saw Liu Yun and Anna Wintour appearing at the corner one after the other. He immediately stood up and even pulled Bi Xiafu up, "They are here ~"

As expected of the female devil of "vogue", no matter what the occasion, she is the one who dresses up the most dazzlingly. It seems that no one in New York does not know her. As soon as she appears in the restaurant, she immediately attracts the attention of the audience. Her strong aura is like Walking with the wind, without squinting, he came straight to Yang Cheng.

"Anna, let me introduce you~" Liu Yun wanted to rush to introduce, but who would have thought that Anna Wintour stretched out her hand, "No need to introduce, I know you, Jason Yang."

Listening to this tone, it seems that it is an honor to know you, but no one can say anything, everyone knows that the character of the "devil head" is changeable and weird, and she also has the strength and confidence to say so.

Yang Cheng shook both hands to show respect, "Good day, Ms. Wintour."

Anna took off her brown sunglasses, "You can call me Anna~"

After saying this, he looked at his daughter, "Why are you here?"

Bishafu stepped forward and took his mother's arm. I don't know whether I forgot or didn't plan to use the good words before, and said frankly, "Jason invited me to be a lobbyist, but I told him, You won't listen to my opinion, so don't pay attention to me, I'm just here to eat."

Afterwards, he exchanged a few words with Liu Yun. We were all acquaintances, so there was no more nonsense. Yang Cheng told the waiter to take the food, and then invited everyone to sit down.

Before her butt touched the chair, Anna said directly, "I know why you invited me to lunch. I want to hear your answer to my questions."

Yang Cheng thought to himself that he was indeed a female devil, and he didn't play cards according to the routine at all, but he didn't panic, and replied while adding wine to Bi Xiafu, "Of course, this is also the reason why I asked to meet and talk."

Anna nodded in satisfaction, "First, why do you want to acquire Condé Nast?"

Yang Cheng already had a draft, "The influence of Condé Nast's magazines still exists. Even in today's decline of traditional media, of course what I value most is that "Vogue" is the master of global fashion magazines. It still has the Oscar-like quality." magic.

In the past few years, I have invested in several fashion companies at random. I am going to integrate them and officially enter the fashion industry. I need the escort of "vogue" magazine. "

Anna immediately raised a question, "Then you can choose to cooperate with me instead of acquiring."

Regarding this question, Yang Cheng's answer was unacceptable, but he couldn't refute it, "I don't like being controlled by others. Moreover, I have money, so it's easier for me to exert influence after buying it."

This reason is very good and strong, even Anna can't find fault, "OK, the second question, you want me to be the CEO of Condé Nast, what is the reason?"

Yang Cheng raised three fingers, "There are three reasons, one, your ability and talent should not be limited to "Vogue" magazine;

2. There are many old-fashioned elements in the management of Condé Nast. What I need is an obedient management, not greedy people who ask me for conditions every day, demanding this or that;

3. When a group company changes its owner, there must be a strong person who is recognized by all employees to appease the hearts of the people. You are the best candidate. "

Anna pondered slightly, "Why do you think I will listen to you?"

Yang Cheng spread out his hands, "Don't get me wrong, I won't command blindly, there is a saying in our country Z that we use people without suspicion, I choose you, and I will definitely give you the greatest degree of freedom. Full decentralization is my promise .

The only requirement is that when I need you and the company to do things for me, whether it is public or private, I don't want to hear opposing opinions. "

No matter how powerful Anna Wintour is, when facing real capital, she is just a pawn on the chessboard. It may be a rook or a cannon, but neither can decide her own destiny.

If Anna didn't have this realization, she wouldn't be able to stand in the fashion industry for decades, and her power would be even greater than before.

Sure enough, Anna didn't say anything to Yang Cheng's words, as if she had acquiesced, she just continued to ask, "The third question, I'm almost 70 years old, how many years are you going to use me for?"

Yang Cheng smiled and did not answer this question, but instead asked, "How many more years do you think you can do?"
