National Tide 1980

Just like Stephen Chow understands the basic qualities of an actor very well.

Ning Weimin also understands the basic qualities of a businessman.

For example, as a businessman, you must learn to use other people's money to make money and use other people's relationships to do things.

So when Ning Weimin agreed to serve Pierre Carton so happily, he certainly didn't care about the reward of one thousand yuan in foreign exchange coupons.

Or it may be a simple act of gratitude and willingness to serve one’s idols who have “pointed” them in the past.

Or maybe it’s the incredible and glorious feeling of being able to participate in a major historical event.

In fact, the more important thing is the infinite benefits of holding this thick leg.

No one knows better than Ning Weimin what kind of courtesy foreign-funded enterprises will receive in this era.

Especially foreign investors like Pierre Carton, who are world-famous and powerful, and who are sincerely investing in the company based on mutual benefit.

In fact, as far as Ning Weimin knew, the French old man's business was not only green lighted in China, but it was done as expected.

During the 1990s, Pierre Carton was even received by the top brass.

For this reason, Ning Weimin knew that once he could successfully gain the trust and reliance of Pierre Carton, his survival rank would be directly improved by several levels.

Good guy!

From now on, if he can use Katon’s golden name to deceive others and seek personal gain for himself...

That is not only safe, but also convenient!

Of course, whether you can embrace France's golden thigh depends on whether your performance can satisfy the new boss.

But having said that, not to mention he is very confident in his ability to do things.

Just that Pierre Carton is willing to pay him is already an obvious attitude.

Because ordinary models don’t get paid.

He learned from the old French man that all the models were free voluntary workers who had been persuaded by the staff of the Ministry of Textiles and acted in the interest of the country.

He is the only one who gets paid financially.

Of course he could see how much his boss valued and relied on him.

What's more, even if he thinks too highly of himself but is not actually judged by others, he has nothing to lose.

In addition to seeing the world, you can personally participate in milestone events in the history of clothing development in the Republic.

He would at least have a chance to talk to Pierre Carton about the issue of store licensing.

As long as the old man relents, he is allowed to open a Pierre Carton brand store in the Beijing Hotel or the soon-to-be-built Jianguo Hotel for distribution and retail.

That's Cow Glass!

Even if he is looking for the first pot of gold!

Within two or three years, he would surely become the first millionaire in the country.

How good would it be that no one would be jealous of him?

To put it bluntly, he could not find a bigger leak in the current republic!

If you really miss this village, there won’t be this shop!

With such a mood, Ning Weimin naturally cheered up and worked hard to organize affairs for Pierre Carton.

But I didn’t expect that some things look easy but are difficult to do.

model?

He knew what was going on, but others didn't.

Ning Weimin went back to his work unit specifically to chat with some tall, good-looking male and female colleagues.

Unexpectedly, everyone was shaking their heads.

Some people are conservative and think that this matter has something to do with foreigners, and the nature of it is hard to say.

It's okay now, but you might end up being ruined later.

Some people are timid and feel embarrassed to be in public and under the gaze of thousands of people.

Although he wanted to go, Chuwozi didn't dare to try.

Some people think that the place is far away and think that going to work every day is tiring enough. They don't want to do these endless things every day.

Aren't you asking for your own fault? It's a hot day. How about taking a break at home?

But there are more misunderstandings.

At that time, Chinese people did not have the concept of fashion models, and they all thought it was similar to the mannequins that Pan Yuliang worked in back then.

Although colleagues would not suspect that Ning Weimin had bad intentions, they worried that he had been deceived by foreigners.

I'm afraid that after I go there, I'll end up stripping naked and having to be painted by others.

So even if Ning Weimin beats his chest and explains over and over again, it won't work.

In the end, only six people were finally persuaded by him.

But even so, when the appointed time came, there was still a man and a woman, who gave up on the matter.

So Ning Weimin didn't want to persuade him anymore, so he took Zhang Shihui, Liu Weijing, Mi Xiaoran and a girl named Qu Xiao to the appointment.

To be honest, even though he was let go, Ning Weimin felt a little resentful.

But more than anything, he felt extremely pitiful for these two fools who had changed their minds temporarily.

Such a good opportunity is in front of them, which may change their lives, but they themselves are not even willing to take a look.

No one can help such people, and mediocrity is already doomed.

Even he was sure that many years later, when the two people who escaped from the battle would recall this day again.

They will definitely regret giving up today.

Because this is like those people who accidentally bought the monkey tickets when they were first issued.

In fact, few people can really keep their monkey tickets in their hands.

When these people who once owned monkey tickets, they used them by mail without any care.

Years later, when they accidentally discovered how much wealth they had thrown away.

I'm afraid that all that will be left behind is regret and worrying about gains and losses.

If their mentality is always disturbed by this reality, they will never be able to regain peace and continue their lives calmly.

That's really not as good as those who have never had it.

It is not an exaggeration to say that one mistake ruined your life.

And this is the sadness of being alive, unable to let go, and unable to think about it.

The place where Ning Weimin took everyone for the interview was quite ethnic. It was either somewhere else or the Drum Tower.

Since there were not many suitable training venues in Beijing at this time, the models really didn’t have many choices for daily training. In the end, they had to rent the second-floor hall of the Drum Tower for training.

The Drum Tower is the farthest from Chongwenmen, so you have to go from the southernmost part of the capital to the northernmost part of the capital.

There is no Ring Line 2 subway these days, so the waiting time for public buses is too random.

They also happened to catch up with another car that broke down halfway.

So even though Ning Weimin left with the big guys at 4:30 in the afternoon, it was not too late.

But in fact, it was almost 5:30 pm when they finally arrived at their destination.

There is only half an hour left before formal training.

There was no way, Ning Weimin had to cancel his plan to treat everyone to dinner, so he had to treat everyone to some cold drinks to quench their thirst.

But even so, no one was dissatisfied and still very excited.

Because they followed Ning Weimin to the second floor of the Drum Tower.

Whether it is Pierre Cardon himself or two foreign coaches.

Or maybe his assistant and a translator are all waiting here, which is obviously a sign of respect for them.

Moreover, the way these people dress, speak and behave is so fresh and novel.

It was really different from what they imagined.
