Chapter 291: Nine Points
Su Chen rolled his eyes, "Talk business or I'm hanging up."
"My dear Chen, there's a really interesting event, I wonder if you'd like to go?" Dilasi said.
"Are there beauties?"
"Yes, tons of them! And not just any beauties!" Dilasi exclaimed excitedly.
He wasn't excited because there were many beauties, but because he knew, with many beauties, Su Chen would definitely not miss it.
Sure enough, Su Chen's interest was piqued, and he asked, "When?"
"Tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" Su Chen frowned slightly.
Tomorrow seemed impossible; he had to accompany Lin Xi to an international fashion show.
"I'm sorry, I'm not available tomorrow."
Rejecting him, Dilasi felt a bit disappointed, "That's too bad, you don't know, every year at Paris Fashion Week, there are many supermodels from all over the country."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen's eyes widened, "The event you want me to attend is Paris Fashion Week?"
"Yeah, I was even thinking of getting you a judge's status, you know, being a judge has lots of perks..." Dilasi said.
Attending Paris Fashion Week, as a judge?
Su Chen got all excited.
The perks of being a judge?
Need you ask?
The biggest perk is the unwritten rules.
You must know, Fashion Week is not only important for the fashion companies but also for those invited models.
It's their chance to become famous.
At that time, not only will there be awards for fashion designs, but also for models who perform well.
As for whether their performance is outstanding or not?
Of course, the judges have the final say!
Imagine, then, supermodels from all over the world, waiting for you to choose, waiting for you to apply the unwritten rules, that feeling...
Tsk tsk, it's much more exciting than underrating the top beauty designer of Jiangdu City.
Moreover, Lin Xi's company will also be participating.
If he becomes a judge...
"I'm in!" Su Chen immediately said excitedly.
"My dear Chen, you, you said you're participating?" Dilasi thought he had heard it wrong.
"That's right."
"That's great, I'll immediately talk to the organizers, to reserve a judge's spot for you and give you a higher scoring weight."
Who is Dilasi?
He's been a world-class designer for many years.
Naturally, his connections go without saying, getting Su Chen a judge's status is far too easy.
On the afternoon of the next day, the grand Paris Fashion Week began.
Even before the official start time, the venue was already packed with people.
To describe the venue as packed was by no means an exaggeration.
A rough estimate put the crowd at over five thousand, everyone sandwiched together.
However, Su Chen didn't need to squeeze through, because he was a judge, a VIP, walking through the VIP channel.
With Dilasi's behind-the-scenes maneuvers, he directly got Su Chen a judge's qualification with a weight of ten points.
You see, the total number of judges reached over a hundred.
Most of these judges, with a weight of one point, were low-level judges.
Then there were twenty advanced judges, each of whom had five points of scoring power.
After that came five honorary judges, each holding ten points of scoring power.
Which is to say, the judge's qualification Dilasi got for Su Chen was that of the highest-level - an Honorary Judge.
Holding ten points, equivalent to the combined scoring weight of ten low-level judges.
Now that he was a judge, Su Chen certainly didn't plan to meet with Lin Xi; he would make a spectacular appearance at the judge's entrance later on, to stun her and, well, her beautiful eyes.
Then allocate all ten points to his lady boss's company.
If his lady boss's company could bag an award, it would be even better.
Judges were to show up after the opening ceremony was over, and now, they were just waiting backstage.
Besides Su Chen, almost all the other judges had arrived.
Those who hadn't were mostly super-big-names.
For instance, it seemed that aside from him, none of the judges with a ten-point weight had arrived.
Quite a number of the five-point judges had shown up.
And the one-point judges were more or less all present.
Backstage, besides the judges, there were also supermodels preparing to go on stage.
When they saw Su Chen wearing the badge of an Honorary Judge, all eyes were on him.
An Honorary Judge, with a scoring power of ten points.
It wasn't just about the scoring power.
Being able to become an Honorary Judge was itself a very awesome thing.
Without some status and position, it was simply impossible.
So, when they saw Su Chen was an Honorary Judge, the supermodels were somewhat unsettled.
Such people usually have very strong backing.
If they could get on good terms with Su Chen... tsk tsk, it would be hard not to become famous.
Soon, some supermodels started slipping him little notes.
Most of them were from other countries.
From this, one could tell.
Girls from other countries tend to be a bit more open than Huaxia girls.
Among these supermodels, there were also a few Huaxia girls, but they were just shyly watching Su Chen from a distance.
Actually, if Su Chen weren't Huaxia himself, it might have been fine, but since he was, it made them feel that doing so would be embarrassing.
They even worried it might cause Su Chen's dislike.
But in the end, they couldn't resist the temptation of benefits; after the foreign supermodels had almost finished slipping their notes,
Those few girls finally came over.
Seeing this, Su Chen was actually slightly disappointed.
Really, even if those girls hadn't come over to him, considering they were all Huaxia people, he would have helped them out.
However, Su Chen was somewhat surprised that a very tall Huaxia female model, even comparable to the Western models in stature, seemed indifferent to him.
She was busy with her pre-race preparations, seemingly not paying any mind to him, a judge with a ten-point weight.
Sometimes humans are just strange.
Su Chen actually did not want the Huaxia girls to approach him, but seeing someone really ignoring him made him unavoidably annoyed.
This mindset is actually quite common.
Just like somepeople have concluded through surveys,
Men's favorite things are tempting good women to stray and persuading prostitutes to reform.
It's a very contradictory, but truly existing, mentality.
Su Chen's gaze involuntarily lingered a few seconds longer on that Huaxia female model.
She was about 1.7 meters tall, only five centimeters shorter than Zhao Di.
Her legs, while not as exaggerated as Zhao Di's, were perfectly proportioned, with at least a nine-point score based on her physique!
