Lin Zhi told Zhong Jiangnan when the sample comes out, he should remember to send Lin Zhi a few pictures of a model wearing it, for he wanted to see the final effect. If it looked fitting, he would make the female lead wear this set of hanfu in the end scene of the movie to bring out the theme of “Autumn Moon over the Han Palace” with the “Autumn Moon over the Han Palace” hanfu.
Zhong Jiangnan felt very honored seeing how the famous director attached so much importance to his design. Therefore, his supposed model was different from how people usually thought “models” were. This model was referring to a model that was only for Lin Zhi himself to look at.
Of course, with Zhong Jiangnan’s picky mind, a mediocre model would not be able to meet his expectations. His “Autumn Moon over the Han Palace” drew the essence from Western Han culture and was the largest result from his two years’ worth of researching about hanfu. Every single detail from his clothes could be published in papers.
He originally thought it was almost impossible to find a model that could be matched with this set of hanfu, unless this model came from the Western Han dynasty. This Western Han woman could not be a mediocre person as well; she had to have royal blood. It would be enough even if she came from an aristocratic family. Her temperament would be the most important thing. Secondly, she had to have a good stature and good looks. If she couldn’t meet any one of the requirements, she would not be a match.
Wasn’t this an expectation that would only come true when pigs learn to fly? Zhong Jiangnan could only think about it inside. He was initially planning on putting “Autumn Moon over the Han Palace” on plastic dummies. Compared to those flirtatious models nowadays, plastic dummies were more reliable! Then, he would send the pictures to Lin Zhi, and that would be enough to work.
As a result, God sent this girl to be in front of him.
It was so incredible. She actually fitted all of his requirements!
Oh, no, excluding the one that stated she must be a royal from the Western Han. She was a modern woman, but she was born with a Western Han royal aura. Magical! Zhong Jiangnan believed that if she wore clothings from any other dynasties, she would not look so brilliant.
Hu Jie saw that her husband was a little excited. This expression often appeared on his face when he gets inspired. Hu Jie did not object to his yearn to find Liu Man as a model. After all, she had to find this girl and the person in charge of this “The Sisters” because she had already noticed a huge business opportunity.
“How do we contact her?” Hu Jie asked.
Zhong Jiangnan looked at his notebook with the three names again. These three people had all bought all the sets in the “Fenghua” series, and they all had significant identities. Whatever he did, he could not suddenly call them and ask them one by one.
The technology department head said, “‘The Sisters’ have an official Wei Bo account, and they listed a way to contact them. I will try calling this number and asking them.”
Hu Jie nodded, “Okay. Call them now.”
The technology department head tried to find the number in his laptop files, but he accidentally clicked onto Liu Man and Li Xiaoru’s duet video. This video had already been played on the meeting room’s screen just now.
The technology department head smiled apologetically and was ready to turn it off.
Zhong Jiangnan said, “Let it play. We can treat this as a meeting intermission, and everyone can relax while listening to ‘Jasmine’.”
And so, everyone watched the video again. When they reached the end, a list of the producing staff appeared. Zhong Jiangnan spotted a familiar-looking name at first glance.
Tao Zhiyao.
He then immediately looked at the name in his notebook.
So it’s her!
Zhong Jiangnan told his wife, “I know who the hanfus belong to. I’ll contact her now.”
The technology department head found the number on Wei Bo, and he asked, “Do I still need to call them?”
Hu Jie said, “Yes. These are two different matters! Go schedule a time with the manager in ‘The Sisters’, which I prefer to be today or tomorrow. I want to meet her in person and discuss our cooperation.”
And so, Tao Zhiyao and Sun Weiwei each received a phone call.
Meanwhile, Tao Zhiyao was in her house, feeding her cat, Pear. Pear had been in her house for four days now, but he was only in a good mental state on the first day. Later on, he got worse day by day. This morning, when he had his cat food, he actually barfed. Tao Zhiyao was in a terrible fix, calling Yu Zhan for help despite that it was early in the morning and he might be disturbed from resting.
Because the cat was not in front of him, there was no way for Yu Zhan to be sure what issue it was. He could only deem from his experiences whether it was because the cat was too young and couldn’t digest cat food. He told Tao Zhiyao to buy some goat milk or some goat milk powder and try feeding him that. If that did not work either, then she would have to bring the cat to his clinic.
Tao Zhiyao did not have anything such as goat milk or goat milk powder in her house, and the shops outside rarely sell these things. She made her driver run through all the supermarkets nearby before he finally got two cans of goat milk powder.
Tao Zhiyao had just brewed her goat milk and had only fed Pear one mouthful before Zhong Jiangnan’s phone call came.
She felt a bit surprised when she saw the caller ID, and at the same time, she also felt a bit annoyed. Now, her entire heart was on the cat, and she didn’t want to answer anyone’s call.
However, she still picked up, “Miss Tao, hello. I’m Zhong Jiangnan.”
“I know it’s you; I saved your phone number. Is there a problem, for you are suddenly calling me?”
Zhong Jiangnan could hear the impatience and the urge in Tao Zhiyao’s voice. He felt strange. In his impression, this young miss was a meeting-expectations rich lady, and she had always been very polite and cultivated.
Noticing that, Zhong Jiangnan didn’t small talk with her and got straight on topic, “I want to ask you, young miss, if you know a cyber star named Liu Man.”
Excluding the fact that she bought clothes from him, Tao Zhiyao did not have any other relations with Zhong Jiangnan. She didn’t expect at all that he would contact her for Liu Man.
“Yes, she’s my friend. I’ll send you her phone number now, and if you have any problems, you can directly go to her.”
Without waiting for Zhong Jiangnan’s reply, Tao Zhiyao hurriedly hung up.
She knew that her action just now was very impolite, but Pear had just spat out the goat milk she had fed him just now. How could she be in the mood to continue calling Zhong Jiangnan?
Zhong Jiangnan was stunned as he stared at his phone after she hung up. What was wrong with Miss Tao?
After approximately one minute, Zhong Jiangnan received the number sent by Tao Zhiyao.
At the same time, Sun Weiwei’s call ended, too.
She felt very surprised and glad. From “Happy Guo Guo” to “The Sisters”, it had been half a year since she started managing and operating internet team accounts, but she had not received any benefits at all. This was the first time she received a phone call from a business corporation, asking for a meeting, and it was Mister Zhong Jiangnan’s company. It was a huge company!
Obviously, this company wanted to cooperate with them.
A cooperation meant that there would be gainings.
How could Sun Weiwei not feel happy?
It was all because of this fake Liu Man, wearing hanfu! They attracted an investor.
Liu Man, ah, Liu Man. Do you know that this ancient miss who has replaced you is much more skillful?
Where are you now? Are you dead or have you exchanged bodies with her?
This was the question Sun Weiwei would contemplate about every night before she went to sleep before she guessed the truth.
If she died… When Sun Weiwei thought of this, a hint of sadness flashed through her eyes. She could only hope Liu Man, in heaven, could chose a smarter life to go to in her next life. Never act so naive again.
If they had exchanged bodies, then she hoped Liu Man would never come back.
She liked the fake Liu Man. If Liu Man returned, then she would lose this friend.
