“Did Mrs. Wang and the others initiate this themselves?” Xin Yue was surprised.
Qiao Weiyang taught Xin Yue a few ways to determine if the trending topics on Weibo were bought or naturally searched. Then, she said, “Mrs. Wang probably really thinks that she was invited to be my foil for the shooting this time.”
“Then what should we do now? You clearly bought very ordinary fabrics.”
“I’ll clarify the matter.”
Qiao Weiyang sorted out the information. Coincidentally, Lu Mingjue called to ask about this.
Qiao Weiyang sent him a copy of the information.
Soon, Qiao Weiyang and the studio posted a video.
In the video, Qiao Weiyang used a kind of golden thread, which was divided into very thin parts. She slowly embroidered them into the ordinary fabric.
The fabric itself looked very ordinary, but after the golden threads were embroidered in, it began to have a luster. Under the light, the texture immediately changed drastically.
In Xin Yue’s dress, there was another color of thread.
These were recorded when she was making the clothes.
At the end of the video, she showed the money she had spent on the fabric. “This is the receipt. I bought it at the largest fabric mall in the east of the city. The code for the white fabric is B23580, and I got seven meters of it in total. The blue fabric is A4793, and I got eight meters of it. The other eight colors amount to 66 meters… As for this kind of thread, it’s a little more expensive, but fortunately, I didn’t use it much. The item code is H9870. I bought five colors and five rolls.”
Therefore, the total cost was 6,786 yuan.
“If you’re interested, you can learn from me and embroider some specific threads into ordinary fabric to improve the texture. However, there’s a bad point. The embroidered thread is easily hooked when wearing it on a daily basis, and it’s not convenient or appropriate.
“That’s why I did it just as an emergency measure.”
After watching the video, many people were dumbfounded. They really did not expect it to be like this.
[She made a total of four sets of clothes. The clothes all have linings, and she also made jackets, pants, bow ties, hats, and socks. All of them cost only a few thousand yuan? Oh my god, I thought the dress Xin Yue was wearing would cost more than ten thousand yuan!]
[My brain understands but my hands don’t.]
[I make my own clothes. What Qiao Weiyang said is right, but I’ve never used this method. Firstly, it’s indeed easy for the embroidered threads to snag. Secondly, people who can master this kind of embroidery method can just buy ordinary fabrics! This is an embroidery method that can only be customized. The advantage of these clothes is Qiao Weiyang’s skills! The fabric is worth 6,000 yuan, but her skills are worth more than 6,000 yuan!]
[Mom, I want to kneel down and watch my idol make clothes!]
[Qiao Weiyang, please release all the clothes-making videos!]
Following the video, Qiao Weiyang’s reputation turned the tables.
The fabrics she mentioned were indeed not expensive.
Everyone rebelled. [So why were people saying that Qiao Weiyang broke the rules? She didn’t even use 10,000 yuan!]
[I don’t think the fabrics Wang Shuqi used are ordinary.]
The netizens were really omnipotent. Immediately, someone familiar with this industry went out to seek the fabrics used by Wang Shuqi.
Then, everyone made a shocking discovery. They realized that the fabrics for the three sets of clothes she made were all from high-end brands. They actually cost 5,000 yuan a meter!
The other fabrics were all top-notch fabrics too. They were almost exclusive to big shows in Europe and the United States. They were also expensive.
[It’s known that the materials used to make a complete set of men’s clothes need to be at least five meters long. The fabric of the set of clothes Li Qizhi had worn costs 5,000 yuan a meter. Just that set alone costs more than 20,000 yuan, not to mention the others. How can we say that Qiao Weiyang spent too much?]
[So who bought those articles? Who wants to step on Qiao Weiyang?]
[I can finally tell that as long as you’re popular and powerful, someone will step on you and frame you. Qiao Weiyang is really unlucky to meet such a ‘senior’!]
[This is really too much. Let’s see how their team quibbles!]
Wang Shuqi was waiting for the comments on the internet to clear her name.
In the end, after waiting for a long time, the results were filled with curses.
The high-end fabrics she used were also dug out one by one.
The netizens also voiced their dissatisfaction in regards to her preference for styling actors with thick bangs.
The response she received was: [You have to admit that you’re old.]
[Don’t take advantage of your seniority.]
[Everyone respected you well enough previously. Don’t cause trouble and ruin the last bit of reputation you have.]
Wang Shuqi sat in her office and was very angry when she saw these comments.
However, the netizens did not care what she was thinking. They just saw the content piled up in front of them and expressed their true feelings.
Nothing could stop them from voicing out.
…
Qiao Weiyang was called over to see the director.
“Director, why are you looking for me?”
“Take a seat first, Weiyang.” The director got someone to pour her tea. “Here’s the thing. I’ll leave the rest of the actors’ clothes to you.”
“Then, Mrs. Wang…”
“Mrs. Wang hasn’t been feeling well recently. It’s not convenient for her to continue working, so she won’t be coming for the time being,” the director said.
He also felt that it was a pity that Wang Shuqi suddenly left.
However, the selection of clothes was originally a gimmick to attract audience members to watch the show. Who would have thought that Wang Shuqi would personally extract the data of the show herself and pull a trick, causing her to fail?
“I wonder if it’s convenient for you or if you need any help?” the director asked.
“No problem. I’ve already reserved enough time. I can find people to help me myself. The production team can just pay them according to their contributions.”
“Okay, then it’s settled.”
Qiao Weiyang knew very well that Wang Shuqi wasn’t suddenly sick. She just couldn’t accept failure and claimed to be sick to hide for a while.
When she returned to the shooting location, Xin Yue was nervously drinking water.
“Sister Weiyang, everyone has to act on the spot in this semi-final. It’s a live-stream! A live-stream! It won’t be edited and broadcasted like before.”
“Then this is your chance. Without editing, your acting skills will be seen by everyone.” Qiao Weiyang was quite satisfied that the production team had this segment.
Xin Yue nodded heavily and took two more sips of water. “But I haven’t recovered from this sudden attack. I’m really a little surprised.”
“Was it suddenly arranged?” Qiao Weiyang asked.
“That’s right. Previously, it was said that only the finals would be live-streamed. I really didn’t expect the semi-finals to be live-streamed too.”
