Rebirth of A Supermodel 9

Jimin might've been not busy in recent years, but he still came to Character's headquarters several times

He was familiar with the layout and led Taehyung to the 14th floor.

Once the elevator opened, the first thing Taehyung saw was the magnificent sign stating 'Character'.

In Huaxia, first-tier and second-tier magazines weren't differentiated just from their sales.

There were deep gaps in many aspects such as the models invited, the sponsored brands and the international standing.

Character's staff led the two people towards the meeting room. The two people hadn't gone far when they heard an editor sighing.

Yesterday, We made a phone call to invite Jeon Jungkook, but he still declined.

Now I don't know who we should shoot for the cover of our 20th anniversary…......

I recently heard that Jungkook is busy with the fashion year that will take place in the first quarter next year, so he has no time.

After turning a corner, the conversing voices faded away.

Taehyung and Jimin waited a few minutes in the meeting room

Then several elite looking middle-aged men appeared, followed by a stylish and elegant woman

Taehyung's gaze swept over the woman's body. After a brief conversation between the two groups, Mr. Yang, the deputy editor of Character started speaking

Yang: I have communicated this with Mr. Jimin before.

Yang: We want to invite four popular new models for a themed photo shoot.

Yang: In fact, we have managed to invite Kim Seokjin and Felix, who have been doing quite well in the past two years.

Deputy Editor Yang's implication was that, objectively speaking, Taehyung's reputation was poor and couldn't be compared to these two rising models

Jimin had naturally prepared in advanced so he calmly said

Jimin (Tae's agent)

We understand your words, Deputy Editor Yang.

Jimin (Tae's agent)

I also admire Kim Seokjin and Felix's success. It isn't easy since they come from small companies.

Jimin (Tae's agent)

But I think you should understand that putting those external conditions aside, Taehyung is no worse than both of them.

Jimin's words were modest. In his mind, he was thinking that his model was much more powerful than both of them!

Jimin paused before continuing

Jimin (Tae's agent)

Since four people are shooting a set of photos, you want to borrow the fame of these four individuals to raise momentum for the campaign.

Jimin (Tae's agent)

As far as I know, many people in today's circles are optimistic about Kim Seokjin and Felix's future.

Jimin (Tae's agent)

Many people want to cooperate with them. Since you have successfully invited them, this 'momentum' step is already successful.

Jimin's tone was calm without the slightest bit of cowardice as he completed his analysis, causing Deputy Editor Yang to feel slightly surprised.

A middle-aged man sitting next to Deputy Editor Yang took over

Mr. Jimin, you have to admit that in terms of popularity, Kim Seokjin and Felix are much higher.

It isn't that we don't want to make you an offer. We just need to think again about this contract.

In fact, Taehyung understood the other side's meaning as soon as Deputy Editor Yang first spoke.

Since 'Character' invited them to the magazine's headquarters, it was clear that they wanted to cooperate with Taehyung. So, what needed to be negotiated here?

Of course, it was closely related to the contract that was about to be signed.

Jimin also understood Character's intentions. He reluctantly suppressed his dissatisfaction and said

Jimin (Tae's agent)

Taehyung's reputation is worse than that of Kim Seokjin and Felix, but they didn't shoot the cover of 'Meditation Road' or appear in 'Lanka'."

A few years ago, Taehyung shot a cover for the second-tied Meditation Road and appeared in the pages of Lanka, a first-tier Huaxia magazine.

After controlling his emotions, Jimin sighed and continued

Jimin (Tae's agent)

Since we have been recommended by Mr. Luo Yu, I don't think you can doubt Taehyung's strength.

Jimin (Tae's agent)

It is understandable if you only consider fame. But if you put all this together, Taehyung's pay should be the same as Kim Seokjin and Felix....…

Taehyung (MC)

50%

The young man's clear and melodious voice was heard in the quiet meeting room, drawing all attention towards him.

Jimin looked at his young model with surprised.

Taehyung's lips curved at everyone's surprised looks and he repeated calmly

Taehyung (MC)

I think it is enough to only receive 50%.

Taehyung (MC)

In terms of results, I am a lot worse than Kim Seokjin and Felix.

Taehyung (MC)

I am honoured to have this chance and grateful to you for giving me this opportunity, so I don't care about the pay.

Deputy Editor couldn't help smiling proudly as he listened to Taehyung's words

Then Taehyung's expression suddenly took a shy turn as he said

Taehyung (MC)

Sometimes, I think it is luckier to be part of a small company. There aren't as many competitors, so I can receive more resources.

Taehyung (MC)

What if they were from Muse? They probably… wouldn't rise so quickly in the beginning?

Taehyung gently laughed and looked very relaxed, as if he was really speaking his thoughts.

However, the calm and powerful aura coming from him made people feel cold.

In particular, Deputy Assistant Yang, who was being stared at by Taehyung, felt some sweat falling down his forehead

After gulping, the more than 40 years old Deputy Editor Yang trembled as he thought, 'An illusion?'

Such aura, he had only experienced it from a few people, and these people were in the rankings of the world's top supermodels…

If Deputy Editor Yang was engrossed in Taehyung's aura, the lady sitting outside was paying attention to the contents of his words.

Lalisa Manobal, the editor-in-chief of Character, looked at Taehyung and laughed quietly—
