Suddenly, Qin Guan had three certificates for each of the three prizes in his hands.
The lonely booklet in Ouyang Fen's hand fully showed that he was weak and fragile.
When Qin Guan returned the certificates to their original places, the highlight of the competition was about to be announced.
The host read the card in his hand excitedly, "The runners-up of the Capital Branch of the New Face Model Competition are Li Xiaoli, No. 21 of the Women's Group, and No. 7 of the Men's Group, XXX..."
Two models, one male and one female, came forward and took the bouquet and certificate from the presenter. Li Xiaoli was very happy. As a rookie designer, I've won third place! I've won a big prize!
Besides the prize money, she had also won a chance to be guided by a professional designer. No one could be happier than Li Xiaoli.
"The runners-up of the Capital Branch of the New Face Model Competition are XXX, No. 11 of the Women's Group, and No. 20 of the Men's Group, Ouyang Fen..."
When Ouyang Fen returned to his team, Qin Guan grinned at him and said something insincere, "Congratulations!"
As Ouyang Fen had expected, the host announced the winner, "Let's welcome the winner of the Men's Group, Qin Guan! “
Qin Guan put a pile of certificates in Ouyang Fen's hands and told him, "Hold these for me, buddy. There are too many certificates." “
There are too many certificates … I also have a lot of certificates! You're such a bully! Who's your buddy? Enemy! Enemy for life! Understand? "
Qin Guan took the certificates and bouquet from the presenter with a bright smile. At the same time, the host received a note from the editor-in-chief of "Models" magazine.
After reading the words on the note, she picked up the microphone excitedly and announced the good news, "Contestants, the competition has come to an end. The top 10 contestants will represent the capital in the semi-finals of the national competition." “
"Of course, this is not all. Now I have a surprise to announce. The editor-in-chief of" Models "just gave me an exciting piece of good news." “
"The first, second and third place winners of the capital division will be specially invited to participate in the outdoor shoot of" Models "magazine in September, the most beautiful autumn season. The photos taken will be published on the inside page of the latest issue of the magazine. “
"Is everyone excited to hear this news? “
"Excited!"
"Awesome!"
Once this news was announced, the contestants were in an uproar. To be able to have such an opportunity to be photographed, even if it was just an inner page, it was enough.
Driven by this good news, the competition came to a perfect end.
Qin Guan returned backstage with a frown. Sister Xue was talking to the staff of the Organizing Committee as she packed up the certificates. She had noticed something wrong with him, but she had no time to talk to him.
When Ou Qiang was gone, Sister Xue packed up Qin Guan's props, put away the bouquet and the certificate. She received the prize money and the notice of the semi-finals. She put away the notice of the magazine shoot (Look at how busy you are!) and drove Qin Guan back to school in her shabby car.
It was already dark. The headlights of the Lada cast a faint halo on the road. Sister Xue took a deep breath and said, "I know what you are thinking." “
"Admit it. You don't want to take photos at all, right?"
Qin Guan nodded. "Will it affect my class? I have a lot of work to do next semester. "
Holding the steering wheel with one hand, Sister Xue opened the glove compartment and rummaged through it.
Qin Guan took out a crumpled pack of Moore cigarettes from the compartment on the side door and handed it to her. "You're looking for this, aren't you? You should smoke less, whether you're happy or sad." “
Sister Xue took the cigarette and lit it with a lighter. She kept her eyes on the road ahead. "Don't worry about it. I've read the shooting schedule. We'll leave on Friday afternoon and start shooting on Saturday. You'll be the background. It'll only take half a day to finish." “
We'll go back on the same day. It won't take too long. " “
Qin Guan felt relieved. Then he asked the question he was most concerned about, "Sister Xue, how much is the prize for the division competition?"
Sister Xue seemed to have anticipated his question. She sneered. "2,000 yuan."
"What? 2,000 yuan for a champion? "
If Qin Guan hadn't fastened his seat belt, he would have jumped up from his seat.
"Be content. There are competitions all over the country, big or small, and the contestants have to pay for them. Look at the ones I've found for you. They're all regular competitions, and you can make money.
How much more do you want? Are you that famous? If you win the national championship, you'll get a bigger prize. About 10,000 yuan. "
Fortunately, the total prize money was more than 10,000 yuan. Qin Guan felt that his time had not been wasted.
When they arrived at the University of Finance and Economics, Qin Guan got out of the car with the certificate and the bouquet in his arms. He picked up the red envelope with the prize money and pulled out six new bills. He handed them to Sister Xue and said, "Here you go. It's late. Buy something delicious for yourself."
Sister Xue took the money and got into her car, muttering something under her breath. Before she left, she reminded Qin Guan happily, "The contract didn't specify that the prize money would be distributed. Thank you for your generosity."
Then she drove away, leaving Qin Guan with a puff of smoke.
Qin Guan watched Sister Xue drive away. He wanted to cry but had no tears. I was cheated again. My money!
As time went by, the heat gradually dissipated. The wind at the end of August had gradually cooled down. Autumn was coming.
The top 10 contestants from each division had gathered in the capital. The semi-finals of the New Face Model Competition had officially begun.
280 contestants from 19 divisions had taken part in the semi-finals. Only the top 30 lucky contestants would be able to enter the final at the end of August.
The atmosphere at the scene was tense. The judges of the preliminary round had all arrived at the scene.
According to the rules of the preliminary competition, the contestants only needed to walk on the runway twice. One was to choose their own clothes, and the other was to wear a swimsuit. Their final fate would be decided according to their performances in the two shows.
The venue for the semi-finals was much larger. There were five entrances to the main runway. Five models would walk on the runway at the same time. It was a test of the contestants' charisma and luck.
