Chapter 2408 - 2408 Twins
2408 Twins
She had participated in the International Fashion Design Competition in her early years and returned in defeat. She did not get a good ranking, so she had never approved of this award.
Especially after she became famous, she felt that this award was nothing. Qiao Weiyang winning the championship meant nothing to her.
Now that she saw Qiao Weiyang’s design drafts with her own eyes, she realized that the award still meant something.
“This fabric…” Zheng Lida reached out and touched the fabric used for his clothes.
The fabric was a little rough, and it didn’t look outstanding. Compared to Wang Shuqi’s clothes, it was far inferior.
Actually, he was not the only one who thought so. Zhang Xi and Wang Shuqi also thought so. The two of them looked at each other and did not say anything.
On the other hand, Xinyue and Luo Lin were both optimists. One of them touched the clothes and said, “This fabric is very refreshing. It’ll definitely be comfortable to wear.”
The other gestured at the clothes and said, “This set will definitely match my figure. Sister Weiyang, thank you for your hard work.”
The two of them echoed each other, and the atmosphere was quite good.
Since Zhang Xi couldn’t praise Qiao Weiyang, she didn’t say anything.
The cameraman also took the opportunity to record some scenes of the costumes.
Zheng Lida was extremely regretful.
If one did not have good clothes and good acting skills in a film that was set during the Republic of China, it would be a recipe for disaster. It looked like they had already lost at the starting line.
He secretly asked his manager to ask the director if he could switch to Mrs. Wang.
Then, his manager came back and said, “No. The director said that many things have been decided. If you make the change, everything else has to be changed. There’s really no way to change it.”
“Then help me make an outfit that matches the era of the Republic of China. Get a special designer to do it. Pick a good one as a backup.”
The manager said, “Lida, what do you mean?”
“Go on. Don’t ask so many questions.”
Zhang Xi and Wang Shuqi returned to the dressing room, where there were no cameras.
Zhang Xi asked, “Mrs. Wang, what do you think of Qiao Weiyang’s clothes?”
“The design of the clothes is quite professional, but those clothes are ordinary. It’s actually difficult to pull them off.” Wang Shuqi was already much more relieved.
If she lost to a young woman who did not have any experience in producing clothes for film or television, she would be a laughing stock.
When Zhang Xi heard this, she knew that her judgment was indeed right. When she looked at the clothes just now, she felt that the effects of those clothes were mediocre. It turned out that Wang Shuqi also thought so.
She smiled and said, “Initially, the production team invited Qiao Weiyang over for popularity. Now, it seems that it’s true. I really overestimated her previously. Only Luo Lin and Xinyue are willing to support her wholeheartedly and act as moodmakers in the group.”
“Qiao Weiyang has both popularity and traffic now. It’s normal for people to be willing to curry favor with her. But Zhang Xi, to you real actors, there’s nothing more important than acting.” Wang Shuqi warned, “Those two small-time actors, they won’t go far in their acting careers.”
“Mrs. Wang, I understand your teachings. I’ll act well.”
Zhang Xi was indeed in a miserable state. Ever since she debuted, she had been the female lead in more than ten dramas. She had filmed everything she could.
She had entered the industry at the age of 17 and was now 27. No one knew that she had been filming for ten years. Her popularity was far inferior to Qiao Weiyang’s. This made her inexplicably unhappy when she saw Qiao Weiyang.
This time, her reliance on and her expectations for the show were far greater than ever.
She did not believe that she would still be unknown after this show.
Qiao Weiyang’s and Wang Shuqi’s clothes were ready, and everyone was going to try them on.
After trying on the clothes, there might be some adjustments and modifications.
Zhang Xi, Ma Jianhua, and Li Qizhi all went to Wang Shuqi’s side to try on clothes.
Xinyue and Luo Lin walked toward Qiao Weiyang. Xinyue held her hands and said, “I don’t know what the finished product is like, but since Sister Weiyang made it, I know it’ll be super good-looking! It’ll definitely suit me well!”
“Yes, it can’t be wrong,” said Luo Lin seriously.
The two of them were very happy. No one knew what they were laughing about.
Especially Zheng Lida, who was worried sick. He was worried that his clothes would drag him down. He was not in the mood to be happy at all. When he saw Li Qizhi and the rest laughing while trying on their clothes, he was even more worried.
Zhang Xi, Ma Jianhua, and Li Qizhi did not try on their clothes. When they were in Mrs. Wang’s workplace, they had already looked in the mirror and taken photos.
They were very satisfied with the clothes Wang Shuqi made this time.
Ma Jianhua could not help but say, “When I worked with Mrs. Wang many years ago, she was very efficient. The clothes she designed were very outstanding and suitable for my character. After so many years, Mrs. Wang has improved even more.”
Zhang Xi smiled and said, “Of course. Mrs. Wang has been improving all these years. Look, no modifications need to be made to our clothes after they were done. Isn’t this an important manifestation of her ability?”
They chatted and laughed as they discussed.
Zhang Xi smiled and asked, “Xinyue, what’s going on with your clothes? Have you tried them on?”
“I’ll try them on immediately. Sister Weiyang’s clothes will definitely be good.” Xinyue’s sweet face was full of smiles. When she spoke, she showed two dimples. She was very cute.
Luo Lin nodded.
Zhang Xi thought to herself, “Two fools.”
It was good. Only fools would not feel discriminated against. Only fools could be so happy.
Xinyue, Luo Lin, Tian Ke, and Zheng Lida received their respective clothes.
The clothes made by Qiao Weiyang were made of very ordinary materials. She bought the fabrics for 10,000 yuan and did not even finish using the budget. There was indeed nothing outstanding about the clothes.
However, Xinyue and Luo Lin did not pay much attention to it. Tian Ke was also a very casual woman. She would wear whatever she got.
Everyone changed their clothes.
Suddenly, a voice came from Zheng Lida’s side. “How exactly are you doing things?”
“I’m sorry, Brother Lida. I’m really sorry. My hand slipped. I’m sorry.” It was Zheng Lida’s assistant’s voice.
“So what do we do now? How are we going to fix these clothes?”
Zheng Lida’s tone was a little unpleasant.
Hearing the quarrel, Qiao Weiyang looked over.
Zheng Lida and his assistant walked out together.
The assistant was holding the clothes that she had just made for Zheng Lida. The clothes had been splashed with coffee and were very dirty. It was probably impossible to wash them.
Xinyue had just finished changing and walked out. When she saw this set of clothes, she immediately said in surprise, “Oh, what a pity. I wonder if the coffee stain can be washed clean?”
“Why don’t we give it a try?” said Luo Lin.
