Chapter 957: Plotting
Translator: Lan_ Editor: Efydatia
Qin Guan greeted all the guests at the promotional event for "Lust, Caution" in Venice. He was wearing a formal outfit designed and tailored personally by GIN, the winner of the fourth season of "Project Runway".
The lucky winner had gone to Venice as Qin Guan's temporary fashion advisor. He was also given the chance to learn from Armani's designers.
This was every designer's dream. Plus, the event would be covered by every fashion magazine in New York. Although it would probably be published in a small corner, this was a rare chance greenhands only got once in a blue moon.
NBC had also sent reporters to Venice to boast about the news. They would shoot a short video of Qin Guan at the Venice Film Festival for promotional purposes.
As soon as the New York Fashion Week ended, NBC would broadcast the program and promote it aggressively.
"This is the secret guest of the fourth season."
"The New York Fashion Week is a feast for supermodels."
"The private fashion party gathered a selection of the most amazing designers."
"Let's all worship Qin Quan and Tim!"
Qin Guan and Tim stood shoulder to shoulder and told the camera together, "We are ready for the fourth season. What about you?"
Most American viewers would watch that silly clip when they turned on their TVs. They all loved funny and dramatic promotional videos. Even the upper-class citizens living on the Upper East Side, who only watched the financial news and current affairs, stopped flipping through channels.
More and more people fell in love with the show thanks to its tight schedule, Qin Guan's brilliant presence and Tim's fame. It was not a hasty project. They had even hired an award-winning actor.
When the news about Qin Guan's participation in "Project Runway" was released, his fans in China were annoyed.
"Great! We can watch the show in Hong Kong."
"Some Japanese TV stations have bought the broadcasting rights."
"So did some South Korean ones. The show might be broadcast a little later, though."
The Chinese, who did not like to watch other people celebrate, came up with all kinds of strange ideas.
"If I install a better antenna, will I be able to receive signal from other countries?"
"I don't think that would work."
"We could share our resources online. American people like to record some classic shows on tape."
"Yes, we could ask someone to send the episodes through the internet."
"I speak English well. I could create subtitles for everyone..."
"Isn't that illegal?"
"No idea, but we definitely won't make profit from it."
The topic was changed automatically to Venice to push away all evil thoughts.
When Venice was mentioned, most people thought of boats and bridges. However, Qin Guan's fans had a different reaction.
