Christopher wanted to deny it but just raised his head to meet Laila's gaze and then involuntarily turned his head to the side.
"Sorry, I am less able to communicate with people." Especially women…
Of course, he would never say the latter sentence because it was embarrassing. He doesn't know why he is like this, but he has been relatively introverted since he can remember, and he doesn't know how to change it when he wants to change it.
Laila felt very strange. Even in Eastern countries, men who are so easily shy are rare. Unexpectedly, in the far west, in such an open country, I could meet another one.
"Then let's talk about work." Laila "kindly" stopped teasing him: "I want to know what you want me to shoot."
"Of course, please look at this." Christopher breathed a sigh of relief and took out a stack of design drafts from his handbag. "This is our company's latest flagship series and the first step we want to expand globally."
Laila looked at it seriously when she received it.
She was a little surprised because these designs are all men's clothing, not the women's clothing that she has been shooting. Initially, she also thought that the other party should ask her to take photos of clothing, but… menswear?
"I have never been involved in the shooting of men's clothing. Shouldn't you look for a more suitable photographer? Why did you find me?"
Christopher nodded first and then shook his head: "Yes, you have never photographed menswear, but in my opinion, you are very talented in capturing the beautiful moment. I can see the soul of clothing from the photos you took. So I don't think menswear will be a problem for you."
Praised by someone who can be a genius, Laila says it is impossible to be unhappy. She put down the blueprint, smiled, and took a sip: "Thank you for your trust."
Seeing her as if she was not interested, Christopher said eagerly: "I'm not flattering. I have all the two brochures you made, and your photos seem to shine, so you can't take your eyes away when you see them. And the model you chose is beautiful, but it can't diminish the charm of the costume itself. When I first saw those photos, I was determined to ask you to take this promotional photo!"
Laila smiled. No wonder he volunteered to talk to himself about cooperation. It turned out that he recommended her.
"Thank you. I am delighted with the photos taken. The important thing is not how my skills are, but the charm of the clothing itself that I can discover."
"So, what do you think of these design drafts? Can't they?"
Christopher's heart tightened, praying that he would not hear the answer he didn't want to hear.
Laila spread out her hands: "No, these are exquisite designs. I have always been interested in the British style. It reminds me of James Bond in 007, the elegant, humorous, and gentlemanly men's style. No woman would fail to appreciate a man like that."
Christopher was happy: "Then you agree?"
Laila did not answer directly but smiled and asked him: "I wonder if you have chosen a model?"
"This…" Christopher thought for a while and said uncertainly: "It shouldn't be? I don't care about those. It's all other people's arrangements."
"It turned out to be like this." Laila's smile widened, and Christopher's eyes were still a little confused: "If you haven't found a suitable candidate, how about I recommend one?"
Christopher blinked, a little confused. Shouldn't they be talking about the work of a videographer? When did they become models? However, no matter how, he can't speak, he also knows that accepting the other's "goodwill" at this time will bring the cooperation between the two parties closer to success.
So he just froze for a moment and nodded quickly: "Of course, if it is a model suitable for these designs, of course, we are willing to let him try."
"That's great." Laila put her hands on the stack of design drafts on the table with satisfaction: "When I saw these designs of yours, his appearance appeared in my mind, and I felt that only he could handle them. The most attractive part of the clothes is revealed."
Christopher was also interested in what she said at this time: "Really? Where is the model? When can I meet him?"
"He is not a model but an actor under our company."
"Huh?" Christopher didn't expect such an answer. Of course, he knows Laila's other identity, speaking of which is a more accomplished identity than her photographer at this time. It's not uncommon for actors to act as models, but…
Laila saw his hesitation and continued with a smile: "Now maybe he's still an unknown actor, but there will be a movie with him playing an important role on Halloween. In addition, in the first half of next year, he will star in another movie. The movie will also be screened on a large scale. I believe it will not be long before he will become our best actor and will not discredit your brand."
Christopher has not dealt with such a situation, but judging from the fact that the other party has repeatedly given the actor opportunity, it should be strong support. So that means that person has the value to be praised?
"Miss Moran, I am very willing to use the person you recommend. But I hope I can meet him before that. If he is indeed suitable for our series, I will support him."
This is precisely the answer Laila wants. The so-called business talks, a suitable model for clothing is a high bonus, Christopher decides to pay attention to her opinions. If she opposed or agreed immediately, it would make him not want to cooperate with such a rash person.
Laila smiled and stood up: "Christopher, I will let him over as soon as possible. Whether you are willing to enable him or not, I will agree to this shooting. This is my promise." The other party gave her so much face. She naturally can't be stingy. It's already the limit to give that guy a chance, and the rest depends on his performance!
After the meeting, Laila took the design drafts back to the room.
Burberry's series this time is the same British style as before, with the iconic plaid and trench coat, as well as big scarves and jazz hats. Through the paper, you can see the elegant, subtle and noble atmosphere of Britain.
Seeing these designs, the first thing she thought of was not someone else but Roy.
This is an excellent opportunity. If you can become a model of the luxury brand Burberry, you will get not only a rising reputation but also a suddenly elevated temperament.
Neither of the two films he starred in was released. Although he was named a contracted actor, he was actually no different from the original street gangster, and he was still an unknown member.
But once you can take over this modeling job, you can use Burberry's ambitious global expansion plan to go to the world together. Regardless of whether the person who saw the photo knew his name, at least countless people remembered the face.
