Chapter 424 - U&ME Fas.h.i.+on Brand
Feng Alix has been a public figure and been in the limelight for years, so she understood how the media worked. It doesn"t matter if you are loved or hated, as long as you are being followed, you can easily draw the media"s attention to you.
This was what Feng Alix knew, and she always took advantage of it. Whatever she does would trend, because she knew how to bring the media"s attention to her.
The next day, news had it that Feng Alix visited the U&ME Brand with her husband, and she was toured around. The news was confirmed when U&ME released the video they took when Alix and her husband were touring.
There was also a rumor of future business collaboration with U&ME, but this particular rumor was neither accepted nor declined, so the public didn"t know what to believe.
With Feng Alix stirring things up, she successfully brought U&ME to the limelight and made them popular.
A few days later, some pictures of Feng Alix doing a photoshoot for U&ME in their latest products, surfaced online, and so the rumors about a business collaboration were finally understood.
So many questions were thrown out there for U&ME and Feng Alix to answer, and happily, they both accepted to do an Interview.
To Feng Alix...
QUESTION: Why did you accept to boost U&ME"s brand instead of FJ Styles, since once worked with them for a few years, are you short of money?.
REPLY: (chuckles softly) FJ is already made, and it"s time for other brands to be in the limelight instead of being pushed away. And no, I"m not out of money, because I can never run out of money.
QUESTION: Since you helped U&ME with publicizing their products, and you are even wearing one of their products right now, do you plan to go back into modeling?.
REPLY: No, I don"t have plans like that. My husband wants me to look after myself and do things that wouldn"t stress me out. I just did this stuff to lend a helping hand and to show my support for brands that have a great vision.
QUESTION: One personal question, please...
REPLY: Sorry, I won"t accept any personal questions, thank you!
To U&ME"s Boss...
QUESTION: Since Mrs. Suarez formally known as Feng Alix, helped your brand, there has been a very big boost in product sales and returns. What made you think about asking for her help?
REPLY: I didn"t have that intention initially until she walked into our company with her husband to shop for some clothes. I asked her while considering that she may reject my proposal, but to our surprise, she accepted it but refused the payment.
QUESTION: What"s your vision now that U&ME has received a big boost?.
REPLY: Our Vision has become bigger, and we are working hard to compete with FJ Styles and overtake them soon.
END OF INTERVIEWS
When the interview records were released, a lot of people whose favorite brand was FJ, three hard words on U&ME brand fit saying they were working hard to overtake FJ.
"You just experienced a little attention, and you are already tying ahead of yourselves!"
"You think you can overtake an International brand like FJ? Well yes, you can, only in your dreams!"
"I won"t be shocked if your brand folds up for using a woman of bad reputation to boost your brand and sales!"
There were so many people against U&ME"s Boss for speaking that way. It"s not bad for people to want to overtake the people already ages of them, but saying it out, could bring about a lot of critics, especially when the people are already infuriated by their means.
While many people were speaking against U&ME"s Boss for the bold words he used, that didn"t stop them from making more money from their sales.
2 weeks later, after Feng Alix had left China with her husband, U&ME released a new clothing collection which attracted a lot of attention, because the outfits released, made sense.
Close to the end of May, U&ME received a nomination alongside FJ Styles and other reputable Fas.h.i.+on brands for the best Fas.h.i.+on Brand in the country. The votes were still ongoing, and the results would be announced in the 2nd week of June.
Fu Hua and FJ were not moved by all of these. Their brand was still waxing strong even without releasing any new collection, and that"s to show that they are not competing with anyone.
Shortly before Feng Alix left, it was rumored that she went to FJ to shop directly from their headquarters, but was not allowed even with her new ident.i.ty, but FJ didn"t release any statement, so no one knew how true the rumors were.
Bai Jun was back from her leave, but she used plaster on her nose for another week before removing it.
During Feng Alix and U&ME"s collaboration, she found out that Alix has not gotten over Fu Hua, and her instinct told her that she was doing all of these to draw Fu Hua"s attention.
If it was before, Bai Jun would have been in the spirit to fight anyone that showed interest in Fu Hua, but now, it looks like her soul has traveled, and her mind, having other thoughts.
Just as Bai Jun"s instincts were working Jia Li"s instincts were working too, but she wasn"t worried that Fu Hua would have anything to do with Feng Alix again. She was confident of how principles her husband was.
After work today, Jia Li packed up her things and left her desk. She worked till very late today, and she was tired. She didn"t worry much about Jasmine, because the little girl was in good hands. There were a lot of people in the house to look after her and to play with her.
You could say that the little girl always had good times when her mother was not around, because Jia Li seemed to be the only one who was a little strict with her. The others always bent to what she wanted, but would only back away if the stuff she wanted would harm her.
Apart from this, Jasmine the little princess of the Fu family always had her ways. She was getting lots of love from her family, but Jia Li was a little scared that sue would bring up a little brat in the future, so she decided to bring up rules the family had to follow when it comes to looking after the little bun.
Jia Li"s concerns were understood, so Grandfather Fu asked everyone to listen to her.
