Chapter 749
A magnanimous and straightforward rescue, a moment of divine recognition.
Whether this student is possessed by a spirit or not, others cannot tell.
But as soon as the student opened his mouth, his fangirl attitude kicked in.
This person is definitely a seasoned fangirl!
Not only does he speak fluently and sometimes uses a lot of industry slang, which is incomprehensible not only to big clients like Ya Jun, but even Jin Li can't quite understand.
Celebrities have very busy schedules, so they don't have time to surf the internet extensively to keep up with the latest news and trending topics, or what new memes netizens have created...
Not to mention that in addition to her work as a celebrity, she also has to balance her studies, prioritizing them.
Jinli is in combat mode the moment she opens her eyes every morning.
If she weren't afraid of falling behind the times, she could also learn some interesting knowledge from online videos, which is why she sets a rule for herself to spend half an hour watching videos every day.
Otherwise, she would be even more confused than most of the people present.
This person said a long string of words that no one could understand, but everyone understood the question she asked at the end.
Including Ya-Jun's hosting duties.
The host's expression changed instantly, and viewers watching the live stream could all tell that something was wrong with her expression.
Ya-Jun put a lot of effort into this live stream, with a delay of only one minute.
Before anyone could react, a minute had passed.
The scene that caused the host's expression to change was watched by the entire internet.
The girl asked, "Why do you think you are qualified to be Yajun's global spokesperson? Do you think you deserve this position?"
When you accepted the endorsement deal, did you feel any pressure? Did you ever think other celebrities were better than you?
[Such a pointed question, no wonder Ya-jun, the host, changed her expression instantly]
Am I the only one observing Jinli's attitude? She's so calm and composed!
[Is this definitely a major client of Ya Jun, and not a die-hard fan of another celebrity? The questions are so targeted; is this someone asking on behalf of her favorite star?]
I'm really curious to know how Jinli will answer this question; I hope she will.
This is clearly a provocation, why should I answer?
The moment the girl asked the pointed question, the live stream's popularity skyrocketed.
Many netizens flocked to watch the drama unfold, and the entire internet was waiting for Jinli's response.
Although Ya-jun's host was caught off guard, she still remembered to save the day.
She took a deep breath and put on a smile again: "Hello, please ask your question about how Jinli and Yajun met. Please ask your question again."
As the host spoke, he gestured to the security guard to take the microphone away from the girl's hand.
It's strange, how did this microphone end up with the girl?
She remembers that the clients who were able to get the microphone were all arranged in advance.
It must be a major customer who spends tens of millions of yuan on the Yajun brand throughout the year!
Not everyone has the opportunity to ask Jinli a question.
How could a little girl possibly spend so much money at Ya Jun? She must have been using her parents' cards.
The girl, still holding the microphone, heard the host's words and asked even more pointedly:
"Why are you only targeting me? When other people ask her questions related to their studies, you didn't say the questions were wrong before!"
Wow, wouldn't you call this a live stream mishap?
This girl is so brave!
Although it's unclear why she was making things difficult for Jinli, her rebuttal to the host was very logical and well-structured.
If I were there, and the host interrupted me, I definitely wouldn't dare to raise any more questions.
She herself didn't understand whether Jinli had been eager to become the global ambassador.
If Ya Jun refuses to give it to her, no matter how much Jin Li wants it, it's useless!
She wants to stand up for other celebrities, but won't let her favorite celebrities look in the mirror. She wants to climb up to Ya Jun—would Ya Jun even be interested?
Just as the security guard was about to grab the girl's hand, Jinli picked up the microphone and answered the question.
Instead of answering the question directly, she first told everyone a story.
"My connection with Yajun actually began two years ago. I had just finished the college entrance examination and after checking my results, Yajun contacted me very actively, hoping that I could participate in related brand activities."
Ya Jun Watches takes "Jun" as its core, emulating the ancient virtuous gentleman and integrating the art of timekeeping into the six arts of 'rites, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics'.
Its "Li" series is particularly revered, ranking first among the Six Arts, and embodying the Eastern philosophical thought of humility, orderliness, and magnanimity.
They saw in me a spirit of self-reliance and perseverance, and believed that I could become a role model, an image that could inspire passion in people's hearts.
In learning about Yajun's history, I understood their desire to combine traditional Chinese culture with the beauty of objects—
It's not about making a clock just a clock, but about making it a timepiece, like the ornaments worn by refined gentlemen in ancient times, imbuing its small dial with cultural elegance. That's why I decided to collaborate with Ya Jun.
Jinli calmly recounted the story, concluding, "So my relationship with Yajun was a two-way choice; it wasn't about whether we were a good match or not, but whether we were suitable for each other."
There was no pressure. Ya Jun and I shared the same belief and were running on the same path: to strive to promote Eastern culture.
She is so beautiful, she deserves to be known by the whole world.
"As for your question about whether other people might be more suitable than me—"
Jinli pondered for a moment, then said frankly, "I don't know, but I hope that more and more celebrities, besides myself, will be able to take Yajun's watches to the world and to the international stage."
I hope we can add more spokespeople to the Yajun Women's Watches brand, so we can all form one big family.
[666 opens up a whole new world!]
[You ask me if I'm a good match, I'll tell you it's just a matter of suitability; you ask me if I feel any pressure, I'll tell you not at all; you ask me if there are other celebrities who would be more suitable, I'll tell you I hope there are more and more people like you, and it would be best if YaJun could add a few more spokespeople!]
[Truly befitting the demeanor of a global ambassador for women's watches!]
I feel that Jinli's magnanimity and vision are stronger than many of Yajun's global brand ambassadors.
Yajun should promote her to a global ambassador for the entire product line, not just limited to the women's watch business.
She perfectly embodies everything I imagined about Ya Jun Watches. I feel like if I wear one of their watches, I can gain the same confidence as Jin Li.
She answered questions with such grace and poise; I felt she was so elegant and poised!
Haha, am I the only one observing the host's expression?
I noticed that after Jinli said those words, a smile returned to the host's face—a smile of relief, practically screaming: "Finally, I don't have to lose my bonus!"
After Jinli finished answering, thunderous applause erupted in the room.
Everyone thought that was the end of the answer, but she didn't take the microphone down.
Jinli looked at the girl and offered her a sincere blessing.
"I hope that you will be able to raise questions so bravely in the future, and use a truth-seeking and knowledge-seeking attitude to solve the problems in life."
Regardless of your initial intentions, your spirit, your willingness to resist, and your courage to question are worthy of emulation by many.
Have a great time at today's press conference, and I hope Yajun will always be by your side.
Oh no, I'm in love!
[No matter how many years have passed, anyone who sees this interview will admire Jinli's gentle, composed, and magnanimous demeanor, like that of a true gentleman!]
The way she looked at the girl was like she was looking at a mischievous little princess. How could she be so doting?
[I wish I could rush to the scene and shout, "Sister, look at me!"] [She's making a scene, she's laughing, she's scolding, she's praising, she's going crazy, she's indulging herself!]
What a magnanimous heart it takes to offer such a blessing to a girl after she raised such a pointed question, encouraging her to maintain a thirst for truth and knowledge in order to solve life's challenges...
[Jinli really spoils her fans and protects the brand image. This girl is a VIP client of Yajun, and she didn't offend her by being able to attend the press conference.]
[What that girl said isn't true. If Ya Jun wouldn't even like Jin Li, then which celebrity would she be interested in?]
……
The press conference concluded successfully, and Jinli once again became a trending topic.
This time, netizens were won over by her answer.
In the afternoon, He Wuyou chatted with a friend recommended by Gu Cheng, refining his knowledge of finance for the script and coming up with a few exciting plot ideas. At the same time, he watched Ya Jun's press conference on his phone.
This is Jinli's first time participating in a brand event since Yajun officially announced her as the global spokesperson for women's watches at noon.
She attended the event as the global ambassador for the women's watch collection, starting from the afternoon session.
Many people copied Jinli's answer to foreign websites and translated it into multiple languages.
Netizens from other countries were impressed by her magnanimity, feeling that she possessed divine wisdom, great openness, and great compassion.
Arguing never solves problems; communication is the effective way to resolve misunderstandings, and Jinli has achieved effective communication.
I also questioned a celebrity at the time. I didn't understand why she could become a spokesperson. I felt she was completely unworthy, but that celebrity chose not to answer.
If she answered like Jinli, I would immediately go from hating her to loving her!
I think many celebrities don't deserve to be brand ambassadors. I don't understand why brands give them opportunities. But if it were Jin Li, I would think it would be the right thing to do.
[She's Jin Li! Look at her box office performance, look at her global box office results, which brand would refuse her influence?]
[I heard she got into the most prestigious university in the country? Is it really that hard to know how outstanding someone as brilliant as her is?]
That girl must be a hater of Jinli, it's a pity I don't know which celebrity she likes, or who she thinks is more worthy of Yajun?
……
He Wuyou was browsing the trending topics.
Jinli was in the top ten trending topics in the morning, and it was unexpected that it would still be in the top ten in the afternoon.
But the topic of this trending search has already changed.
He couldn't help but sigh, "Jinli is so thorough in her work. If I had even half of her skill, I probably wouldn't have ended up in such an ugly mess with Yiyi Media!"
His script is already half finalized, and the overall framework will not change; the modifications are only to local details.
Logically speaking, this script could be shown to Yiyi Media.
However, his initial draft had not been well-received by Yiyi Media, and He Wuyou subconsciously refused to communicate with his former employer.
He knew that his mindset was bad, but people always want to stay away from sources of negative emotions.
A thoughtful look flashed across He Wuyou's eyes.
He may never become Jinli, but now that he's a member of Chenxi Entertainment, he might be able to talk to Sister Fang and perhaps get some other advice.
Driven by the trending topic, some netizens became curious about the girl who asked the question and wanted to dox her.
But those netizens couldn't do it.
Because Ya Jun blurred the faces of every VIP client.
The VIP customers present were very well-mannered and did not take photos of others without their consent, so the little girl's photo was never found.
Since the person cannot be found, doxxing is even more impossible.
-
Jinli left Yajun's press conference.
She should have finished get off work and left an hour ago.
However, because the customers at the scene were so enthusiastic, she stayed an extra half hour. Coincidentally, she had promised them in the morning that she would spend more time chatting with everyone.
Having just escaped the enthusiastic customers, Jinli was stopped by Yajun's staff, who wouldn't let her leave and thanked her profusely for half an hour.
Many staff members prepared a small gift for Jinli; the amount wasn't much, but it was all out of goodwill.
Finally, the person in charge of the event rushed over, solemnly took out a gift box, and handed it to Jinli.
"Please accept this; it's a small token of my appreciation from Ya Jun."
"If it weren't for your quick thinking and turning a livestream mishap into a moment of triumph, today's event would have been a complete disaster!"
Since things had come to this point, Jinli had no choice but to accept it.
As soon as they got in the car, Sui Lingfang asked curiously, "What gift did the on-site director, Ya Jun, give you? Judging from his expression, it seems like the gift is quite special."
Jinli wore three watches by Yajun at the event, each of which is a watch that can be displayed in a shop window and is a collector's item.
After she finished wearing it, she handed it to the staff for careful sealing.
Jinli opened the gift box and casually said, "With such a tight schedule, this gift probably wasn't prepared in advance, but rather brought over at the last minute."
There was little of anything at the event except for watches; Ya Jun brought out a total of 200 watches for this event.
Judging from the gift box, it should contain a watch.
The gift box was opened, revealing an even smaller gift box inside.
Upon opening the inner gift box, what appeared before her was the Yajun high-end series watch—
The "Gift" series: Galaxy Brilliant Watch.
The price of this watch is 148 million!
Jinli was somewhat surprised.
She knew about the watch because she had seen it at the exhibition at the event and had also noted down its price.
"hiss--"
Sui Lingfang knew the value of this watch and couldn't help but gasp.
"This watch... is way too expensive."
If it's just a watch worth tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even less than 50, it's not a problem.
But this watch costs nearly 150 million!
It's still available but there's no market for it; production has ceased.
Because it is so beautiful and classic enough, it commands a premium of up to 200 million in the secondary market!
Is it really worth Ya-jun paying such a high price for a temporary rescue?
Jinli felt it wasn't worth it, but for Yajun, it was definitely worth it!
Every VIP customer present had an annual spending of over five million at Ya Jun, with some even reaching ten million!
Ten million is just a threshold, not a requirement to reach exactly ten million.
Many people spend between ten million and one hundred million!
Jinli's act of saving the day not only salvaged the situation but also improved Yajun's image and made her more memorable.
Therefore, Ya-jun felt it was absolutely worthwhile.
If it weren't for the fear that Jinli wouldn't accept the more expensive piece, he probably would have given more than just this one. (End of Chapter)
