The makeup artist next to him opened the black suitcase, and the layers of folded boxes were instantly propped up. Then, Lyn Amie picked up his tools and started chatting.
XX@#@!%!%
What? What did you say? It's not Chinese, it's Japanese!
Japanese clothing had been popular in Asia for a while. Before Korean clothing had become popular, it had always been the spokesperson of Asian fashion.
Their well-developed fashion magazine industry had also occupied a large proportion of the continent.
Qin Guan raised his eyebrows. That was indeed the style of a strict chief editor. Qin Guan had to give the chief editor a thumbs-up for the foreign makeup artist's skill.
It was the first time that VOGUE had dared to use a male model on the cover of its first issue. Even ELLE Clothing hadn't had the courage to do that.
Due to the female customer base, the front covers of fashion magazines were usually taken up by the hottest female models and actresses. Coupled with their exquisite make-up skills, professional and avant-garde clothing, and sharp and aesthetically pleasing photos, their customers were able to directly see the strength of top fashion magazines.
Only their magazines could provide the most professional guidance to the readers who pursued beauty.
This was also the reason why advertisements for luxury goods such as clothing, purses, and watches in magazines could increase sales.
They were the pioneers in the history of fashion, telling people what style they should pursue so that it wouldn't be out of date.
It was incredible for ELLE Clothing, which had always been conservative, to publish a male model on the cover.
After a series of complicated changes and make-up, Qin Guan was shocked when he found out that he only had to take a photo on the cover of a magazine. He thought he had been through a lot, but he was shocked.
You can't judge a book by its cover. Who would have thought that the conservative chief editor of VOGUE was the craziest person in the industry?
It was not a magazine for men. The sales of the cover of the issue were enough to influence the fate of the chief editor of a continent.
The cameraman in charge of the main shoot was an American who had followed the lead of the chief editor to Asia. The prop artist was a Frenchman who was filled with unlimited romance.
The concept of this issue's photos was also different from the colorful collisions of other magazines. The flowery avant-garde clothing was actually the opposite of the usual choice of cold black and white colors.
Even the photographer and the prop master, who were used to seeing big scenes, began to feel nervous.
During the same issue period, a newsstand or a bookstore would publish dozens of domestic and foreign magazines at the same time.
The magazines would be lined up on the bookshelves. The order of their placement depended on the retailer's long-term sales experience.
Books that sold well were placed in eye-catching places, and they were the easiest places to get them when they were close to the readers.
Those with poor sales would be placed in the innermost area. Sometimes, half of the cover would be blocked by other books.
How could a VOGUE cover attract the readers at first glance among all the other colorful covers? It had to be the ultimate beauty.
France was known as the fashion capital of the world for a reason. Many countries were left in the dust by their sensitivity and pursuit of beauty.
The cover was not just black and white. The chief editor had abandoned VOGUE's tradition of taking full-body photos. Instead, he had chosen a close-up shot of the face above the neck.
This was a test of the team's foundation. The most important factor was the level of the model.
When the French prop master weaved ancient ship ropes from the end of the world into a beautiful mask, he pinned layers of fake hibiscus on the side of the rope mask, giving the face a contradictory sense of harmony.
The collision of coarse and delicate, complex and simple, made the mask a mysterious collision of East and West.
The prop master carefully put his masterpiece on Qin Guan's face. It was a knotted mask, so it didn't have a rope to prevent it from slipping off. Qin Guan had to raise his chin and let the prop stop it from slipping off.
The thick rope covered Qin Guan's cheekbones, revealing his beautiful eyes. His long eyelashes covered his clear black pupils, adding a mysterious color to his eyes.
His raised chin caused the muscles below his neck to naturally tighten, revealing his beautiful Adam's apple. His thin lips were curled up, tempting him to commit a crime.
The style of this photo was infinitely elevated by N levels. It was a completely different style from the cover of a celebrity wearing a big brand. Those who saw it could only sigh in admiration and praise for the Creator.
Qin Guan stood there motionlessly for more than 10 minutes. After countless adjustments, he turned his head, closed his eyes and opened his mouth slightly. Finally, he decided on the final design.
The extreme collision of black and white made the photo surprisingly artistic and nostalgic.
Qin Guan rubbed his stiff neck and went to the fitting room to change. The excited photographer's assistant had already put the sample on the chief editor's desk.
The receptionist, who had just been called to the chief editor's office, also had a seat outside the suite.
Qu Xuemei had a conversation with Qin Guan. She had realized that there was such an invisible talent in the office.
Qu Xuemei was talented in data and statistics, so she could give all the information about Asian models to the receptionist.
It would be rude to call her a receptionist now. Thanks to Qin Guan's good luck, she had been promoted to the second secretary of the editor-in-chief's office. Although it was just a job of making statistics and serving tea, it was still a great opportunity for her.
Not only would she get a promotion and a raise in salary, but she would also be in charge of the job that she had always dreamed of. She would be able to sort out the information of many famous Asian models and hand the final data to the chief editor. Her dream of becoming a fashion star would come true.
The chief editor looked at the photos on the computer and pointed at the most angular one. He said to his assistant, "Tell the editor of the publishing team that this will be the cover of the next issue."
The assistant nodded quietly and sent the photo to the chief editor. The bold decision had been settled for the time being. All they had to do now was wait for the feedback from the release date.
When Qin Guan walked out of the fitting room, the members of the working group came up to him and gave him a hug. They had been through many battles for many years. They had never expected to find such a dazzling treasure in that mysterious country.
