Chapter 2502: Being Treated as a Male Model

2502

There was no one at the magazine.

At least there was no one in the lobby on the first floor.

Xu Taiping was standing in the lobby wearing a pair of sunglasses, his hair combed meticulously, a light blue shirt on his upper body, and a pair of tight white jeans on his lower body.

Xu Taiping was dressed very casually today, because it was rare to have such leisure time.

Although he is dressed casually, with Xu Taiping's height and body shape, he looks like a male model.

Xu Taiping looked down at his feet.

One section of his ankle was exposed. It seemed that because he had grown taller recently, he originally didn't plan to wear these pants, but Xia Jinxuan said that it was fashionable to have one section less, so Xu Taiping wore it that way.

The hall was empty with no one around, so Xu Taiping had no choice but to walk aside.

Next to it is a staircase that spirals upward. The staircase is very well designed. On the railings of the staircase are pictures of men. Some of these men are strong, some are feminine, some are strong, and there are all kinds of them. All styles are available.

Xu Taiping felt a little regretful. This magazine was called Top Men, not Top Ladies. Otherwise, the photos would probably have been of top beauties.

Walking up the stairs, Xu Taiping came to the second floor.

There was still no one on the second floor.

This made Xu Taiping very surprised. Today is not a Saturday or Sunday. There are so few people. What the hell?

Xu Taiping walked to the side and suddenly heard a burst of yelling coming from the office next to him.

"Qiao Yue, I've been waiting here for a week! A week, you know? I didn't do anything for a week, just waiting for that Xu Taiping! Who do you think I am? I'm just a random guy on the roadside. Can you find the kind of novice who takes photos with a camera worth 4,000 yuan?" An angry woman's roar came out of the office and reached Xu Taiping's ears.

"I'm really sorry, Miss Peizi, just wait one more day, just one more day. Mr. Xu will definitely come tomorrow, he will definitely come!" Another woman's voice came from the office. This woman's voice was very familiar to Xu Taiping. , that’s Qiao Yue’s voice.

"Wait another day? Oh my God, do you know how much work I have outside? How many people are waiting for me to shoot fashion shoots for them? You actually dare to make me wait another day. I really can't imagine this. Is this the attitude of the Chinese fashion industry towards a photography master like me? Make me wait endlessly, day after day?" The roar of another woman named Peizi continued.

"Miss Peizi, Mr. Xu is very busy, and we are trying our best to communicate with him. Really, please, please wait another day, please!" Qiao Yue begged.

"I can't wait another day. Next, I have to take a set of makeup photos for George Clooney. I don't have so much time to waste with you. Let me tell you, Qiao Yue, I, Peizi, am a top international photographer. I can no longer let my precious time be wasted on meaningless things. I've had enough of you. Everything here is so vulgar, so vulgar, and so lacking in fashion sense. I'm leaving, right now! "Pei Zi roared, and then there was a sound of high heels.

"Miss Peizi, don't leave." Qiao Yue shouted.

With a snap, the door of the office in front of Xu Taiping was pushed open. Then, a blond and blue-eyed woman in her fifties walked out of the door. This person ran into Xu Taiping head-on.

This person has blond hair and the skin on his face is fairly well maintained, but you can still see a lot of wrinkles. This is incomparable with Chinese women of the same age. This woman is wearing a bright red professional skirt and has a very tall figure. Generally speaking, the lipstick color is very dark, which is not the type that Xu Taiping likes.

After seeing Xu Taiping, the woman looked at her from top to bottom, and then said with a look of disdain on her face, "What I said is absolutely right. Look at your models. What era are they in? They are still like this." The outfit is so low-end, I can’t believe it. This is your Chinese fashion standard, and you will always be at the bottom of the world.”

Xu Taiping was stunned. He didn't expect that he just walked over and was bombarded. The other party seemed to regard him as a model of the best man.

After the woman said these words, she bypassed Xu Taiping and walked forward.

At this moment, another woman hurriedly walked out of the office.

This woman is also wearing a professional skirt. She is about forty years old. She has a beautiful face and a plump body. She has the charm of a mature middle-aged woman. Her hair is short and she looks a bit capable.

According to Hua Xia's words, such a woman is definitely the kind who can absorb dirt while sitting on the ground.

When Xu Taiping saw this woman, he recognized her identity immediately. She was Qiao Yue who had called him several times.

At this time, Qiao Yue's eyes were a little red, and she seemed to have suffered a lot of grievances. After she walked out of the office, she also saw Xu Taiping. Although Xu Taiping was wearing sunglasses, she still recognized Xu Taiping at a glance.

"Mr. Xu?!" Qiao Yue looked at Xu Taiping in surprise, seemingly shocked that he appeared in her company at this time.

"Mr. Qiao!" Xu Taiping smiled and greeted Qiao Yue.

"You...why are you in my company?" Qiao Yue asked doubtfully.

"Didn't I say I came here to take pictures of you today?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Didn't you say tomorrow?" Qiao Yue asked.

"Tomorrow?" Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he seemed to have promised the other party to take pictures tomorrow.

"You see, I forgot about this incident. I remember it was today. I've already come here anyway, so let's do it today... No, who was that woman just now? I heard what you said inside? "Xu Taiping asked.

"Nothing, nothing." Qiao Yue shook her head repeatedly, and then said, "Mr. Xu, please go to my office first. I'll contact the photographer. I'm really sorry. I didn't know you were coming today, so the company went out for team building today. It's nothing. people."

"I see! Then I'll wait a moment." Xu Taiping said.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!" Qiao Yue bowed to Xu Taiping repeatedly, and then led Xu Taiping into the office.

This office is a manly office, with many photos of handsome guys hanging on the walls.

Xu Taiping felt that he was quite handsome, but suddenly he felt a little lackluster in this room.

"Mr. Xu, there is everything in the refrigerator. I will contact the photographer right away. Please wait." Qiao Yue said, turned around and hurried out of the office.

Xu Taiping sat on a chair, picked up his phone, opened the search engine, and searched for Peizi.

Soon, a lot of information about Pei Zi popped up.

This Peizi is a fashion photographer from Perfume Country. It is said that he is still very famous in the industry. He often takes pictures of first-line male models and stars, and he has also won the Pulitzer Prize. The Pulitzer Prize is simply the Oscar of the photography industry.

According to what they said in the office before, Peizi was invited by Qiao Yue to take pictures for him, but because he kept letting go, Peizi became dissatisfied, and then left after venting his anger. .

Xu Taiping felt that no one could be blamed for this matter but him. After all, he was the one who repeatedly let others go. As a top photographer, it was normal for Peizi to get angry after being let go for a week.

However, if you get angry, you still get angry. When you get angry, you still implicate innocent people. That's what Peizi did wrong. Xu Taiping is actually very reasonable. As long as you do things reasonably, he won't mind no matter what, but if you are unreasonable , then Xu Taiping will take things seriously with you no matter how small it is, just like that Peizi, it’s okay for you to get angry with Qiao Yue, and even if she gets angry with Xu Taiping in front of Xu Taiping, it’s okay. After all, Xu Taiping was in the wrong, but if he insulted Xia Jinxuan's fashion sense, it would be a heinous crime. In Xu Taiping's heart, that Pei Zi had already been sentenced to death.

Of course, this death penalty is not that death penalty.

After reading Pei Zi's information, Xu Taiping suddenly became inspired and checked "The Best Man".

This "Excellent Man" is a magazine focusing on men. The parent company is called Yuexianglife. In addition to "Excellent Man", there is also a company called "My Fair Lady". As the name says, these two One company focuses on men, the other on women.

Yuexiangshengsheng is a listed company with a market capitalization of about 3 billion, which is not too much. Of course, it is not too little. Every year, it releases various lists, such as the 100 most beautiful faces in Asia. Among them, "The Best Man" is a list specifically for men, and "My Fair Lady" is a list for women.

Xu Taiping used a very common search software to search for "Excellent Man" and found that in addition to the "Excellent Man" encyclopedia, there were also some not-so-good news about "Excellent Man". For example, "Excellent Man" had another episode this quarter. How much money has been lost? For example, the unspoken rules of "The Best Man" were exposed. Xu Taiping even saw a financial special magazine saying that the parent company of "The Best Man" is considering closing the subsidiary "The Best Man".

Judging from these, the situation of "The Best Man" is not very good recently. It is no wonder that Qiao Yue keeps calling him. She probably wants to use his identity and influence to save "The Best Man".

At this moment, Xu Taiping noticed something very interesting.

In the encyclopedia, the general manager of "The Best Man" is not Qiao Yue, but a person named Ren Yibin, and Qiao Yue is the editor-in-chief of "The Best Man".

This actually surprised Xu Taiping. If he wanted to revive "The Best Man", shouldn't it be Ren Yibin who called him? After all, that person is the general manager, and the person who should be most anxious is the right one.

Xu Taiping looked at the information in his hand with interest. About ten minutes later, Qiao Yue came back, her face full of disappointment that could not be concealed.

"Where's the photographer?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Well...Mr. Xu, the photographer we arranged before is the one you just saw. Due to some special reasons, he can no longer take pictures for you. We are now contacting other photographers." Qiao Yue said apologetically. .

"Really? Just call her again and tell her that I want to see her to experience what cutting-edge fashion means, and she can set the price as she pleases." Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"This... okay, let me try!"
