At this point, what else can we do?
The first thing Jiang Xiaoyuan did when she woke up from the black eye was to take Jiang Bo to a "convenient" breakfast shop on the roadside: "Two bowls of Wonton."
Jiang Bo, the young master, glanced at the yellow orange plastic bowl and said, "I want to eat dry food. I don't want to use their bowl to drink soup
Jiang Xiaoyuan rolled her eyes wide and said on her own: "A bowl of Wonton, bring him two Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle)."
The waiter yawned and walked over, half dead, saying, "One piece of meat Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle), two pieces, and eight cents of salt and pepper Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle). What do you want?"
Without hesitation, Jiang Xiaoyuan said, "Salt and pepper
Jiang Bo: "..."
This earth shattering act of rebellion caught Teacher Jiang off guard, and Jiang Bo, who didn't react for a moment, calmly pondered for a moment: "Jiang Xiaoyuan, have you turned the world upside down
Jiang Xiaoyuan has a mind full of wild and imaginative ideas, and she thought carefully on her way to the studio in the morning.
After a while, when the preliminary work of the studio is settled, I will follow Teacher Jiang to study abroad for three or four months and come back in time to take the senior makeup artist exam next year. By the time she obtains the professional qualification, the studio can basically get back on track. They can recruit and expand the market at the same time... and also do some cosmetics purchasing business. When the purchasing platform is mature, they can take the opportunity to launch their own products.
For ten or eight years, as long as she puts in the effort, she feels that she can also strive to create a "sound".
Now all these ideas have been hurt by the word 'no money', and Jiang Xiaoyuan feels that her dream of sweeping across Asia has transformed into a daydream, shattered into pieces. However, she was not willing to let Asia's number one fan blood and brain to the ground, so she had to angrily modify the future planning, while biting a mouthful of Wonton just out of the pot.
The roots of the teeth are numb from the heat.
Jiang Xiaoyuan thought to herself, money is not the most important thing now. If it's really not possible, we can still borrow money. The most important thing is resources and reputation. The competition pressure in this industry is very high. How did we get this reputation and reputation?
The fact has proven that Jiang Xiaoyuan is a complete novice in marketing. Distributing flyers on the street is definitely a thankless task. On the one hand, no one will look at it, and on the other hand, she cannot clearly define her target customer group
Although Jiang Bo had many things to do, he didn't say anything when Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle) came up. He took a bite and said to himself, "I didn't expect that I could have a one yuan six breakfast in my life."
Jiang Xiaoyuan was deleting and editing the unreliable marketing strategies in her mind one by one, and casually added, "When I used to have a fortune, I never thought I would have the day to stand on the street and distribute flyers
Jiang Bo listened for a moment.
As soon as Jiang Xiaoyuan spoke, she felt like she had slipped her tongue. The tone immediately changed and she said, "I'm just joking. When I was dreaming, my family had a fortune of over ten thousand
She has a gentle and beautiful face, and in private, she often talks about trains with acquaintances. Jiang Bo didn't take it to heart, just caught her "handing out flyers" and said, "It's not to that extent. There must be a way to get to the mountain by car. Although many of my big clients have connections with her, I haven't been idle for so many years. Even if it's just human relations, I have some resources. Big clients may have difficulties for a while, but if I lower the price a little, there are still jobs for unknown 18th tier artists
Jiang Xiaoyuan let out a muffled "hmm".
Jiang Bo: "As for the issue of money, didn't you say there are still investors
Jiang Xiaoyuan's mind was full of confusion, eager to carve out a brand new path. Upon hearing this, she said unkindly, "First of all, you need to create something that can make money at a glance, so that you can shamelessly look for investors. What's the point of trying to cheat a white wolf with nothing? Looking for someone to help alleviate poverty? Besides, I don't think you may be reliable. Investors are my friends, and I can't deceive them
Jiang Bo waved the Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle) in his hand without expression: "Why don't you talk about feelings when you pit me?"
Jiang Xiaoyuan remained expressionless and said, "Just because someone else looks cooler than you
Jiang Bo: "..."
Jiang Xiaoyuan lowered her head, peeled off the hot soup, gently blew the hot air on Wonton, and ate breakfast heartily.
She has good eating habits and is very elegant. No matter how hungry she is, she won't gulp down her food. When she has something in her mouth, she never says a word. She also has a good sitting posture and doesn't have any embarrassing habits such as smacking her mouth, pulling vegetables, or scraping the bottom of a bowl. Even the leftovers she eats don't look bad, they are neat and orderly.
Even if she fished out Wonton, the remaining soup was a clean bowl, and people who didn't know it could drink it directly.
Although she can only afford this roadside shop, she can go anywhere without showing any fear.
If it weren't for knowing her background for a long time, Jiang Bo would almost have had a misconception - as if Jiang Xiaoyuan was a young lady who had been raised by the family with a lot of money.
Jiang Bo suddenly couldn't help but say, "Actually, she's right. With your skills, hanging up with a studio may have a promising future. That way, you'll be stable, light hearted, and have plenty of time left
There is only a little time in youth, it is also a passing time for flowers, willows, and green spaces, and it is also a passing time for running around and working hard.
Jiang Bo lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Xiaoyuan with very soft eyes. He said, "You can go out to eat and shop with your little sisters, watch a movie, or find a reliable person to fall in love, isn't it good?"
Jiang Xiaoyuan's initial thought was interrupted by his empty words, and she said irritably, "Don't talk nonsense to me
Jiang Bo took out a chopstick from the table and lightly tapped Jiang Xiaoyuan, saying, "Speak well
Jiang Xiaoyuan ignored his rambling and tried to put the topic on the right path: "I have an idea. Let's see if it's reliable - how do you think we should do Internet marketing first? Since we can't get in touch with major customer resources, we should start with brand building first. Since the funds are tight, we will not go to the United States. Anyway, there will be no chance in the future... I think the advantage of Internet marketing is that there is infinite time and space, but the disadvantage is that we may have to follow the example of freelance photographers. In this way, the early profits must be very low. Do you think we should also consider doing some wedding business? You don't need to do these things yourself, you can recruit some students in school as interns."
Jiang Bo thought for a moment and said, "If you only want to be famous, you can still participate in the competition in a while
Jiang Xiaoyuan paused for a moment and asked, "What kind of competition
Jiang Bo sighed, feeling that his assistant had no common sense: "The styling design industry also has national competitions, some focus on weddings, and some have film and television themes. Every year, you can invite people from some film and television companies. If you're lucky, it's a great opportunity for a stylist - as long as you can stand out
Jiang Xiaoyuan didn't seem to hear his last words at all. Her eyes flickered with a thousand hectares of sky light, making the entire convenience breakfast shop shine brightly: "What? How can I participate? I haven't heard of it before... Why didn't you tell me earlier
Jiang Bo lowered his head and took a bite of Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle).
Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle) is a kind of evil thing. It is ugly. It is stained with bits and pieces of sesame seeds. The corners are black. When you meet it on the street, you will not have any appetite. Only if you really put it in your mouth and taste it, you can tell the height of the Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle). It is undoubtedly hot and crisp, with an indescribable smell of burning.
Just like Jiang Xiaoyuan, although she is not unattractive, she seems to be born with a delicate temperament that cannot withstand wind and rain. She also lacks common sense and cannot be considered thoughtful in her work. Overall, she has neither ability nor luck.
Jiang Bo didn't expect him to come this far with her.
Why is that? "He thought inexplicably." Is it because she's more foolish and bold than everyone else
It wasn't until he obediently reached for his wallet to settle the bill that Jiang Xiaoyuan suddenly spoke up and said, "Shopping, eating, watching movies, and dating are all good, but something is missing
She heard the question just now, and Jiang Bo asked seriously, "What's missing
Freedom, "Jiang Xiaoyuan said.
Jiang Bo asked in surprise, "Am I not free? Where are you not free? Who cares about you
Jiang Xiaoyuan neatly placed the used spoon in the small tray next to her: "No one needs to take care of it. For example, if you become poor outside, your parents and relatives call and say, 'What are you going to do when you become so virtuous? Do you want to kill your parents? Don't you want to go back to your hometown to get married! Don't you know what parents are not going to travel far?'... Don't you seem unreasonable if you don't obey and go back? Of course, I just make an analogy, my parents are gone."
After finishing speaking, she remembered that Jiang Bo's parents were also gone, so she frowned and changed her words: "For example, if you go shopping and have dinner with friends, what would you like to eat? If someone else invites you, besides ordering something you like to eat, you also have to consider whether this meal will be too expensive - isn't this also a kind of restriction? With restrictions, there is no freedom. Also, if someone really suffers a big loss because they want to help you, how can you repay this favor in the future
Jiang Xiaoyuan sighed and seemed to be moved as she spoke, "If you were someone with no connection, maybe you like him today and don't like him in a few days, then just put it aside and everyone can get together easily. Whether you like him or not is pure, but if it's mixed with human feelings, when you like him, it's mixed with gratitude and flattery, no longer pure liking. If you don't like him, there's no freedom to dislike him... I always feel very uncomfortable like this, but after looking at it, it seems that everyone doesn't think so
She sat on the bench of the small restaurant feeling a bit lonely, suddenly feeling a little lonely.
Why don't others have so many things to worry about? "Jiang Xiaoyuan thought," Maybe I took myself too seriously? It's all because I was spoiled there before
After listening, Jiang Bo smacked for a while and said, "Oh, I understand a bit now
Jiang Xiaoyuan blinked, hoping for his comfort.
Jiang Bo: "Are you saying that you can't receive favors from anyone you like? No wonder I asked you to find investors... hiss
Jiang Xiaoyuan gave him a kick under the table.
Jiang Bo's slender and long eyebrows almost flew out of his face, and he said incredulously, "How dare you kick your boss
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "You're hanging me up with some vague shares, making me do eight jobs alone and deducting my salary, so you can call yourself 'boss'
Jiang Bo: "..."
At this moment, he realized what Jiang Xiaoyuan had just said about 'not being free' - her words were irrefutable, so he had to awkwardly shut his mouth.
That evening, Jiang Xiaoyuan requisitioned Jiang Bo's computer and registered a blue V Weibo account for the "Nirvana" studio. She then spent more than four hours putting on a date recommendation makeup for herself, writing a long and smelly makeup tutorial, followed by clothing matching techniques and taboos, and finally wrote a few provocative concluding remarks.
After finishing, it was almost past midnight, and Jiang Xiaoyuan, dressed in her best attire, shamelessly circled a bunch of beauty related influencers without having time to wash herself.
After waiting for more than half an hour, no one turned around and no one came back to her. Jiang Xiaoyuan's eyelids were almost stuck together by eye black, so she had to get up like a dead dog to wash her face and fall on the bed. She found that "Internet marketing" was not so easy for a dead layman like her.
Before going to bed, she habitually glanced at her phone and saw Qilian's timely greeting message like morning and night: "How is your studio preparing
Jiang Xiaoyuan replied shamelessly, "The preliminary work is progressing smoothly, so future investors can rest assured
After finishing this one, she seemed to have completed the last ceremony of the day and fell asleep after touching the pillow.
Jiang Xiaoyuan had only slept for less than four hours when she was awakened by the phone call.
She got up groggily and saw that it was a phone call from her hometown - the habit of rural elderly people going to bed and getting up early is really insane. Every time her grandmother contacts her, Jiang Xiaoyuan painfully feels like she just lay down.
She crawled up like a ghost, picked up a glass of water in the room, and finished the phone call, hmm hmm hmm. Five minutes later, she was completely awake.
Grandma called specifically to inquire about her recent situation and also told her a piece of news - her sixth great grandfather has passed away, and Grandma will represent the older generation to preside over the funeral.
Jiang Xiaoyuan had no idea what kind of relative "Grandpa Liu" was, but she understood what her grandmother meant.
What does it feel like for a lonely old lady to watch her peers disappear one by one and cry for them one by one?
Death follows like a shadow, with no family present.
Grandma is afraid.
