Chapter 806 - Classic (One)

Whether it was because the impression was too deep or for some other reason, Laila found herself unable to think of a more suitable advertisement than the one she remembered after thinking about it. It was already difficult to film hairdressing tools, and having such a masterpiece in front of her made her creativity seem insufficient.

So after much thought, she made a decision—to film that advertisement herself. She was somewhat looking forward to it. Would the advertisement made with so many excellent resources from her company be better than the one in her memory?

Thinking about it and having to do it, Laila quickly wrote down the preparation process for the advertisement and handed the recruitment of actors and other matters to Louise. Hollywood was never short of actors, and even a minor role in an advertisement would attract many people.

The pay might not be much, but for the lowest-level newcomers, it was not considered little. Moreover, this was a recruitment by Dragon Soul Company. If they were noticed by Laila and she took a liking to them, even if they played an inconspicuous role in her film, it would definitely be beneficial for their future acting careers.

Who didn't know that Laila had the best eye for choosing actors? Even the extras in her movies would attract a lot of attention.

Some extras could be recruited at a low price from the actor's union, while Laila used the new talents recently signed by the company as the main characters. She knew that this would be an outstanding advertisement and that it would be unforgettable once it aired. This was a great opportunity to promote someone, so how could she easily give such a good opportunity to unrelated people?

By the time Louise had recruited all the actors, Laila had prepared everything else.

First of all, the positioning of the product destined it to be close to the fashion industry.

In order to make people feel the fashion atmosphere in the advertisement in a short time, she especially went to her mother's company and invited a team of stylists to come over. They were responsible for everything from clothing to makeup.

With everything ready, filming became the easiest part. While Laila was doing post-production for the advertisement, the news of her filming an advertisement for GHD was finally exposed.

This was not her first time producing an advertisement, but before, she had only helped Burberry with print advertisements, mainly photographic works. This time, it was her first time producing a commercial advertisement for a commodity as a Hollywood director. Therefore, once the news was exposed, it immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Fans said they would pay attention to the advertisement, even if they usually hated advertisements. As long as it was filmed by her, they would watch it seriously and would not change the channel halfway through.

As for those who criticized Laila, they eagerly stood up to attack her, saying that she was using advertisements to make money again. It must be because she couldn't make good movies anymore that she turned her attention to advertisements, which are easy to film and pay well.

Laila, as usual, ignored such remarks, and watching fans discuss how she would film the advertisement on her Facebook account became one of her great pleasures. It was said that the real masters were among the people, and there were plenty of imaginative masters among the people. Seeing their imaginations had broken through the sky, she felt that the earth's gravity could barely hold them back.

They didn't seem to be discussing advertisements but rather a new movie. Aliens, giant monsters, prehistoric creatures, and even superheroes were all dragged out and tossed around. The discussion was so intense that they seemed to forget that the product was just a hairdressing tool.

Laila quietly liked each imaginative discussion.

In this lively discussion, GHD Company, which was nervous, finally received the advertisement sample they had been expecting shortly after.

Benjamin personally input the sample into the computer in the screening room, and then accompanied by his two assistant lackeys, he watched the $20 million advertisement with several top managers and major shareholders of the company.

Don't be scared by this number. In the eyes of GHD Company, it was much smaller than they expected, indicating that Laila had not wasted a huge budget.

However, this "small" investment also made them somewhat worried. They said that cheap goods are not good, so they should not save money blindly and make the advertisement look too cheap, right? They knew that their product was a luxury item, and anything related to cheapness should not appear in their advertisement.

Taking a deep breath, Benjamin finally pressed the play button. He had already watched the sample before coming, and honestly, he was shocked. It was only four minutes long, but it felt like watching a Hollywood blockbuster, especially the kind that was particularly exciting. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that such an advertisement could be produced in such a short time. From taking on the job to completing it, it seemed like not even a month had passed.

What he didn't know was that if it weren't for the need to add some special effects to the advertisement, Laila could have handed the sample to him in a few days. Filming advertisements was so familiar to her, and she had the best team, so filming a few minutes of advertisement was really simple for her. It felt like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

The advertisement began in silence.

The first thing that appeared in everyone's eyes was a luxurious banquet, where everything seemed extravagant. Many women dressed up in glamorous outfits, adorned with gorgeous jewelry, and wore floor-length gowns, each looking as if they had just stepped off a fashion runway.

However, for some reason, looking at these women gave people an uncomfortable feeling. They seemed like a group of puppets, assimilated by the trend as if they were all created by the same stylist using the same style and technique, except for the shining money symbols on them, there seemed to be nothing that would make people shine.

At this moment, the prince appeared. His appearance attracted the attention of the women and became the focus of all the women's gazes. However, he seemed indifferent, just casually walking towards where he wanted to go.

The scene changed, and the female lead appeared. She was also wearing a beautiful long dress, surrounded by flowers, highlighting her graceful figure and beautiful face. Compared to the women around her, she seemed to have an extra bit of girlish tenderness and innocence.

The prince stopped, and his gaze turned to her. Just as the girl was waiting for him to come to her, the prince only flicked his hair, straightening the stray strands in front of his forehead.

The girl then realized that what had attracted the prince's attention was not her, but the mirror beside her.

She was very disappointed, but more regrets were rushing towards her.

As the clock's hands pointed to midnight, when the clock's hands overlapped at 12 o'clock, the pearl necklace around the girl's neck suddenly came apart and fell to the ground.
