NOVPUBWith such quality, not to mention spending money to spend a night with them, even if they paid him, he wouldn’t be interested...
Seeing Gu Heng’s furrowed brows, Frederick Arnault asked in confusion, "What’s wrong? Gu Heng, are you dissatisfied with our LV’s collection this season?"
As a mere mutt, how would Gu Heng understand luxury brands like LV?
While he did find these bizarre designs quite strange on people, he wouldn’t criticize the new LV collection in front of their heir...
He shook his head and said, "I’m a bit unclear, why doesn’t your LV fashion show invite some prettier models? Instead, you invite these ugly ducks?"
Frederick Arnault: "..."
At first speechless, Frederick Arnault then smiled helplessly and retorted, "You must rarely watch fashion shows, right?"
Gu Heng didn’t hide it and nodded, "This is my first time."
"Fashion shows and model shows actually have a very fundamental difference.
That is, model shows focus more on the model’s figure and appearance, but fashion shows emphasize the beauty of the fashion through the models.
To be honest, fashion models are generally selected based on their figure and photographic presence. The chosen models are those who won’t overshadow the clothes, yet can enhance the outfits’ best features.
Due to this focus, it’s difficult to achieve excellent makeup, which ultimately leads to the general low attractiveness of the fashion models.
As for those who claim they don’t understand the aesthetics of the upper class, it’s really quite funny.
After all, we’re selling clothes, naturally, we wouldn’t choose models whose beauty overtakes the clothing, that would be a foolish move. If we really wanted to, we could find them, but if we did so, wealthy men would chase the models instead of buying clothes for their wives.
If you, Gu Heng, are looking to see glamorous models, I can invite you to the next Victoria’s Secret fashion show. Their supermodels are beauties with both looks and figures."
While speaking, Frederick Arnault seemed to recall past experiences and couldn’t help but swallow his saliva...
After hearing the explanation, Gu Heng was stunned...
Alright, alright...
So watching a big show involves so many twists and turns, doesn’t it?
Doesn’t that mean he came here for nothing?
With the quality of these models, to put it bluntly, Gu Heng couldn’t be aroused, not even slightly...
Sensing what might be going on in Gu Heng’s mind, Frederick Arnault gently patted Gu Heng’s shoulder and said, "Are you worried you won’t find someone who interests you at the cocktail party later?"
Seeing Gu Heng didn’t deny it, Frederick Arnault continued with a smile, "Don’t worry, besides a few models from this show, the cocktail party will mostly host celebrities from the entertainment industry and elite ladies and socialites invited by the LV group."
Among these models, besides a few top models, others don’t have the credentials to attend our LV party."
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng finally relaxed a bit and continued watching the big show...
....
More than an hour later, the women’s model segment was nearing its end...
Next up was the show from various countries’ LV brand ambassadors and endorsers...
Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Connelly, Alicia Vikander, Leia Seydoux, Emma Stone, Zheng Haoyan, Cate Blanchett—these were all top stars in other countries...
With each appearance, Frederick Arnault would whisper an introduction into his own ear...
Among these people were official Oscar-winning actresses; nearly everyone very well-known in the international entertainment circle. Being able to gather all of them to obediently walk the runway, aside from a global luxury giant like LV, hardly any company could achieve that...
In contrast, stars like Song Qian and Ouyang Nana, who might be somewhat famous in the Asian entertainment circle but hardly make a splash internationally, were hardly even caught by the cameras...
In contrast, Liu Yifei, who had been dabbling in Hollywood and had even landed a major Disney movie, "Mulan," had some international fame...
However, Gu Heng always felt like these celebrities occasionally glanced at him while they walked the runway...
At first, Gu Heng thought it was an illusion, but as the glances became more frequent, he couldn’t help but glance at Frederick Arnault, who had an arm over his shoulder, and got a rough idea of what was going on...
Just like Jiang Wen said...
Why did these celebrities come to the show?
Wasn’t it just to see if there were any big shots with whom they could exchange resources?
Exchanging physical resources for economic resources, social resources are also a part of resource exchange, right?
To put it plainly, it’s about fishing for gold diggers...
And of the many people here, who is the biggest gold digger?
Without a doubt, it’s Frederick Arnault sitting right next to me.
Because Frederick Arnault is the biggest gold digger, I also got quite a few glances, probably because they think I must be a big shot too if I’m that close to Frederick Arnault...
But being seen as a gold digger, Gu Heng wasn’t angry...
On the contrary, he couldn’t help but silently thank Frederick Arnault in his heart. If he could make these female stars remember him a bit more, then later at the cocktail party, he wouldn’t have to try as hard...
This sort of high-class debauched cocktail party was Gu Heng’s first attendance...
Being able to skip some steps was, of course, the best...
A few more minutes passed, and as the last female star exited, the runway became completely empty...
Frederick Arnault stood up, patted Gu Heng on the shoulder and said, "The next half hour is for the male model fashion show. I think you wouldn’t be interested, Gu Heng. How about we head to the cocktail party at the estate first?
These female stars and socialites will head over early to prepare."
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng also stood up...
The female model fashion show for more than an hour had already been torture for him, let alone a male model fashion show...
Even if Frederick Arnault hadn’t suggested it, Gu Heng would have found an excuse to leave. Now, to be able to go to the cocktail party venue earlier, Gu Heng couldn’t have asked for more...
"Will these male models also attend the cocktail party later?"
As Gu Heng and Frederick Arnault prepared to leave under the protection of bodyguards, they happened to see a group of tall male models walking from backstage towards the runway, beginning their show.
Compared to the female models, these male models were much more handsome...
Oozing with sexual appeal...
Obviously the type well-equipped in many areas...
Frederick Arnault heard Gu Heng’s remark, smiled, and as they walked out, whispered so that only the two of them could hear, "Of course, it’s not just these male models who will participate.
Our LV Group has also invited several up-and-coming male models, including those with a certain fame in the entertainment industry.
After all, not all wealthy people in the world are men; there are also many female tycoons, and our LV brand’s audience is mostly female tycoons.
We men like beautiful women, wouldn’t they like handsome men?
Our LV Group, as the initiator of the event, of course will not have any gender discrimination; we’ll definitely provide good service to every member invited to this fashion show."
Listening to him, Gu Heng chuckled and shook his head...
Indeed, there’s no gender discrimination...
But class discrimination was displayed thoroughly...
These glamorous models and stars, at this so-called high-class cocktail party, seemed like goods available for the elite wealthy to pick...
Although these stars and models chose this themselves, it’s essentially a dirty cocktail party where the lower rank pleases the higher rank...
But such an opportunity, ordinary people wouldn’t even dream of benefiting from the party, let alone serving at it...
If it were the old Gu Heng, he might have strongly condemned this behavior...
But now...
He just wanted to fully savor the pleasure of the whole world serving him now that he was rich...
...
How does that saying go...
The dragon slayer boy ultimately becomes the dragon...
Now that I’m part of this class, how could I possibly act against my own interests...
