Chapter 1067 Thank you
Seeing the phone ringing and the name of her agent displayed on the screen, Lin Yoona put down her fork while eating, elegantly wiped the corners of her mouth with a tissue, and then picked up the phone.

Kim Taeyeon didn't care much at first. After taking a look, she just kept eating her food. But after listening to two sentences on the phone, she immediately raised her eyebrows and looked over there.

"…Oppa, now?"

"Yes, didn't you say that I would inform you as soon as there was any news about this matter? There has been some progress on the GUCCI side. I heard that the list of partners has been released. I just received the news. I happen to be in the company right now and am on my way there..."

A man's voice came from the phone, sounding a little hurried and a little happy: "Yun'er, you have a TV series shooting today, can you make time now? If it is confirmed that we get the cooperation, you may have to come to the company later..."

Kim Taeyeon recognized that it was Yoona's personal agent Son Ha Yong, and what he said really made people prick up their ears.

"Today's scene will be late. I'm having dinner with Taeyeon-unnie right now. I can ask for leave later if you need me."

Lin Yuner immediately perked up after hearing this, and immediately said a few words to the phone. Then, after a slight hesitation, her voice became a little lower. She was very expectant, but also a little worried, and asked: "Oppa, is the chance good?"

"Do not worry."

Manager Sun Heyong's confident tone made Lin Yuner's eyes light up. "I have already had dinner with Director Li several times for this matter. You must know Director Li Junzai. He was involved in the negotiations when Yuan first discussed cooperation with GUCCI. He has been in charge of the communication with GUCCI since then. He is also the host of this cooperation. He hinted to me a few days ago that you, Yuner, are the company's main fashion promoter for female artists, and GUCCI attaches great importance to the company's suggestions, so it must be true."

Kim Taeyeon looked at Lin Yuna who was talking while covering the phone with her hands, with a happy, excited and expectant smile on her face. Finally, she said, "That's it... I'll wait for your news, Oppa," and then hung up the phone.

Then the little girl, with a reserved and elegant expression on her face, started humming a song softly, picked up the fork and put a small tomato into her mouth. The smile on her face looked even more dazzling under the sunlight shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Although she was a little annoyed by the second youngest member's pretentious expression and actions, and she also roughly understood the content of the call, Kim Taeyeon still couldn't help but be curious and asked casually, pretending to be indifferent: "Is the GUCCI collaboration done?"

"Not yet~"

Lin Yuner chewed some fruit, squinted her eyes and gently waved her hand: "Ha Yong Oppa is on his way there now... He just said that the chances are great."

"So you're going to the company later?"

"Let's see what Ha Yong oppa is saying~"

Although she was being modest, when Kim Taeyeon saw the smile on Yoona's face, she knew that the youngest member was very confident.

Suddenly, the lunch that Kim Taeyeon had been eating with great enthusiasm suddenly tasted tasteless. She chewed it twice dryly, swallowed it stiffly, and exhaled unconsciously: "Huh..."

It’s really... a bit enviable.

After the news of the collaboration with GUCCI came out, it caused quite a stir within a certain range. Many people in the company wanted it very much. As far as Kim Taeyeon knows, Yunho from TVXQ, BOA, and several people from SJ, as long as they have been active for a while and have certain connections and relationships, have all tried to get it, not to mention those from younger groups.

And she herself is also very envious... Even though she is short and seems to be out of place in fashion, which female idol doesn’t like fashion and luxury?
Unfortunately, I tried to win, but failed.

Looking at Lin Yoona, who was smiling happily and obviously in a good mood, Kim Taeyeon couldn't help feeling a little jealous, even though they had been in the same group for many years and had a good relationship.

This youngest member is really lucky recently.

Isn't it really a change of luck?
Feeling sad, after talking about the endorsement for a few words, Kim Taeyeon couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to change the subject, mentioning their Girls' Generation's new album: "By the way, I've asked Jingyuan to take care of our album."

Hearing this, Lin Yuner also became interested and looked over: "He agreed?"

Although she is not a good singer and has very few parts in the group's songs, and is now focusing on her acting career, the group Girls' Generation is of great significance and irreplaceable to her. Yoona is taking this last album very seriously and is willing to contribute her own strength.

"Well, he will try to write songs, and then he will also check the company's music library to see if there are any songs that are suitable for us... He has an incredibly wide range of authority over the company's music library. Basically, he can listen to and use all kinds of songs of all styles at will. Wow, he is much better than us."

Although Kim Taeyeon pouted, her tone contained a hint of pride. She took a sip of coffee and praised him earnestly, "Jingyuan is very reliable in terms of his professionalism. I'm really looking forward to what song he can write this time."

As she spoke, Kim Taeyeon thought of something and her eyebrows jumped: "Actually, I told him about this a long time ago, but he didn't seem to take it to heart... But it should be okay this time."

"If Jingyuan can help, then I'll be relieved."

Lin Yuner, who also recognized Chi Jingyuan's professional ability, was relieved when she heard this: "Then should I continue to contact the composer I know?"

"Just keep in touch." Kim Taeyeon started eating again: "An album needs at least eight songs, and what he writes this time may not be the title song."

"Yeah, but unnie, what did you think of Jingyuan when he was the producer of your solo debut album last time?"

"It's amazing." After the sister finished speaking, she emphasized again: "It's really amazing."

Lin Yuner came up with an idea: "If possible, why don't you ask him to be the producer of our album this time? Anyway, the company doesn't care much about it and leaves a lot of things to us to do..."

Kim Taeyeon was obviously tempted, but after thinking about it, she shook her head: "They will be very busy in the future and will be overseas this year. He may not be in Seoul when we make the album."

"Oh, I see~" Lin Yuner nodded, and while sipping her coffee elegantly, she asked, "By the way, how is Jingyuan's injury? I was thinking about visiting him before, but he refused."

"It's not just you. We were all rejected. That guy only let..."

When Kim Taeyeon heard this, she immediately felt a sense of sympathy. She was just about to complain that he only allowed special girls to visit him, but then she thought it was a private matter, so she stopped talking and changed the subject, saying, "He was seriously injured this time. There was a big cut on his head, and he's still wearing a bandage."

"But he looks like he's recovering well. He said the stitches should be removed in two days..."

As she spoke of the news she knew, Kim Taeyeon recalled the previous agreement and looked at Lin Yuner and asked, "By the way, we have an appointment with Jingyuan to go out for dinner and play together on the 22nd to welcome him...Yuner, are you going?"

"Okay~"

When Lin Yuner heard this, she didn't mention that she had a drama to shoot these few days. She nodded without hesitation and said, "Ouni, let's go together then."

As she spoke, she suddenly laughed, her eyes curved as if she was acting coquettishly: "If I can cooperate with GUCCI this time, I have to thank Jingyuan..."

As she was speaking, the phone that had been placed next to her rang again. Lin Yoona glanced at the caller, squinted her eyes and picked up the phone to answer it.

I guess it's confirmed.
Jin Taeyeon thought to herself, just as she had this thought, she suddenly saw Lin Yuner's face change suddenly, and her voice became sharp in an instant, "Didn't get it?"

From the elegance and reserve just now, it turned into surprise and disbelief.

She didn't want to listen at first, but she pricked up her ears instantly, and heard Sun Ha Yong quickly say in the same hurried and horrified tone on Lin Yuner's phone:
"...It wasn't just us who didn't get it. Many artists I heard had great chances didn't get it either."

"The latest news is that GUCCI has invited Irene from Red Velvet and Sehun from EXO to collaborate with them. In addition, there seems to be another artist from JYP, but GUCCI has not disclosed it, and Minister Li does not know who it is now."

Lin Yuner was already a little anxious. When she heard the names of the final winners, she frowned in disbelief: "Why them? And I remember that their names were not on the list that was determined before."

"Yes, she was not on the previous list at all. All the artists on the company's previous list were eliminated. I heard from Minister Li that this was a direct decision made by GUCCI and they did not discuss it with the company at all. He still has not figured out the situation..."

The agent's voice on the other end of the phone was also full of impatience and anger, and the confusion and horror in his heart were no less than Lin Yuna's.

Thinking that Kim Taeyeon was still across from her, Lin Yuner tried hard to suppress the negative emotions that surged in her heart. After taking a few deep breaths, she forced herself to ask in a calm voice, "So, we have no chance of working together this time, right, Oppa?"

The previous immense expectations were now shattered into the abyss, and the excellent mood was ruined. Lin Yoona really wanted to get angry at this moment, and the anger in her chest wanted to explode.

But she is not the kind of person who gets angry for no reason. This kind of thing is beyond their control. She also knows that her agent is very capable and has been working very hard.

"Don't worry, Yuner. I'll go find out what's going on and see if there's anything wrong." Sun Heyong's voice was still anxious, and even the background sounded a little noisy. "The company doesn't know what's going on either. Director Li and the others are all panicking."

"I understand, Oppa."

But Lin Yoona didn't hold out much hope. She forced a smile, said goodbye, and hung up the phone.

Then he immediately fell into silence.

To be honest, she has been looking forward to this resource and this top luxury title for a long time. If she gets it, it will be of great help to her career in fashion.

Lin Yuner had been working in the company for a long time for this title, mobilized a lot of her own connections, and with the efforts of her agent, she finally crossed the threshold.

In addition, the agent has been reporting good news all the time, which has raised Yoona's expectations a lot. She even felt a little elated after receiving the call from her agent just now.

However, the news of her failure was like a bolt from the blue, especially when she heard that several juniors had obtained the resources. She felt filled with irritation and anger.

And...some uncontrollable embarrassment.

Because Kim Taeyeon was sitting opposite her.

Although this sister looked indifferent as she lowered her head to eat, her little eyes and eyebrows had glanced in her direction countless times.

Thinking about how she had just been so confident and reserved, ready to proudly embrace the title of top luxury brand, Lin Yoona felt very embarrassed.

…It was even more embarrassing than not getting the title. She has always had a strong sense of self-esteem and was very concerned about her reputation.

Kim Taeyeon tried to eat for a long time, but she finished all the noodles in the bowl and couldn't eat any more. She couldn't hold back her curiosity, so she finally raised her head and looked over carefully: "Yoona, are you okay? What happened?"

"..."

The corners of Lin Yuna's mouth twitched unnaturally twice, and she repeated the news she had just heard in a seemingly calm voice.

"what?"

When Kim Taeyeon heard the latest news, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide in surprise, thinking she had heard it wrong.

She is well aware of Yoona's abilities. This woman is a natural born actress, has great connections and resources, and is very likable.

When she heard that Yoona couldn't get the award, Kim Taeyeon thought it was because of senior executives from other companies, such as BOA and Yunho, who snatched it away. She could understand it.

But what about the juniors like Bae Joo-hyun and Oh Se-hun? And where did that JYP guy come from?
"Were Irene and the others also recommended by the company?" Kim Taeyeon thought for a moment and asked tentatively.

"Ani." Lin Yuner shook her head, holding the fork tightly in her hand and stirring the salad, and said in a calm voice: "It's not on the list at all~"

"That's strange. Logically speaking, the company wouldn't force them to support it, and they don't have any..."

Kim Taeyeon repeated the mutterings of these people. She always felt that these names seemed to have a very familiar connection.

She was thinking over here, while Lin Yoona used silence to ease the resentment and embarrassment in her heart. The atmosphere that was full of laughter and conversation just now suddenly became silent.

They were chatting and laughing just now, but suddenly fell silent.

Two minutes later, the phone next to her rang again. This time, Lin Yoona did not answer the call as quickly as the previous two times. Instead, she first glanced at the caller, then secretly glanced at Kim Taeyeon, and waited for a few seconds before answering the phone.

"Oppa..."

"...Yoona, I just asked around, and the company didn't expect this result at all. It's very different from what they expected, so the company quickly contacted the familiar staff at GUCCI..."

"...It seems that the company had discussed the list internally and handed it over to GUCCI. It was the spot we competed for before... But GUCCI seemed to have asked for Jing Yuanxi's advice... I heard from Minister Li that the company's relationship and connections with these top European luxury brands were all built up with Jing Yuanxi. This further cooperation is also because of him. He has much more say than the company..."

"The company tried to communicate with GUCCI again, but the brand was very firm... After knowing that it was Jing Yuanxi's idea, the company couldn't refuse or change the person." Sun Heyong's somewhat low voice came from the phone: "So this time... it should not be changed."

Lin Yuner listened to the news from her agent quietly, lowered her eyes to look at the table, her nose trembling unnaturally, and finally responded in a low voice: "Yeah."

"Yoona..." Sun Hayong, who knew Yoona very well, knew that she must be very angry when he heard her tone, and wanted to say something with great concern.

But Lin Yuna interrupted the other party and forced a smile: "It's okay, Oppa."

Seeing Lin Yuna hang up the phone, Kim Taeyeon, who had just heard the content, clapped her hands suddenly and reacted: "Yes, I said it, I always feel that Irene and Sehun surpassed you, and it's weird that Yunhao oppa got the title, why can't it be their turn... After all this time, it's Jingyuan's influence."

Her eyebrows danced, and she said quickly as if she had seen through the sky: "Look, one of these two is his good friend, and the other is his ex-girlfriend who he is still in contact with... As for the one from JYP who I don't know about, I tell you, it is 100% Mina from Twice, his current girlfriend!"

"Ah, ah..." Jin Taeyeon cursed indignantly, "Jingyuan, this kid, is he taking his family with him to grab resources? Are they all distributed to those who are close to him?"

"But..." Kim Taeyeon's voice suddenly became softer: "He is really generous..."

This is a GUCCI title resource. Including Lim Yoona in front of him, a lot of people in the company were scrambling for it. In the end, Chi Jingyuan not only didn't need it himself, but he actually gave it away!

You have to know that there are many good friends and even boyfriends and girlfriends in the entertainment industry, but they don’t have enough resources themselves, and rarely help their friends. People like Chi Jingyuan who directly give top resources to their friends and girlfriends are extremely rare.

He even brought his ex-girlfriend along...

Kim Taeyeon didn't believe that Bae Joo-hyun, a little-known female idol, could suddenly get top-level resources. It would only be strange if it had nothing to do with Ji Kyung-won.

As she was thinking about it, she suddenly remembered what she had said to Chi Jingyuan in the music room two days ago. Recalling Chi Jingyuan's strange expression at that time, she reacted instantly.

This person already knew that Lin Yuna had no chance at all, so he had such a weird and uncontrollable expression, and said something like "her chance is a hundred times greater".

One hundred times zero in West Eight is still zero.

Wait, so I am zero in his heart too?
Assi.

Kim Taeyeon, who thought she had a very close relationship with Chi Jingyuan, suddenly felt a little indignant, but when she looked at Lin Yoona opposite her and blinked, she couldn't help but feel a little secretly happy in her heart.

Although she has a very good relationship with Yoona, Kim Taeyeon couldn't help feeling jealous when she knew that Yoona could get GUCCI resources. Now things are suddenly going a lot smoother... She hopes her friend is doing well, but she doesn't want her to be too well.

This is a very contradictory but very real heart.

Lin Yoona in front of him lowered her head slightly and looked at the salad in front of her. Her expression was calm and her eyes were calm. Even her coquettish nature had stopped showing off.

Based on Kim Taeyeon's understanding of Yoona, the youngest member was definitely angry.

That's right, I had worked so hard and strived so hard to finally squeeze in. If nothing unexpected had happened, there would have been a high probability that I would have been able to get this resource which would be very helpful to my career. But now, it has been given away so easily to other people.

It feels like no matter how hard I try to compete for connections... it's not as direct as finding a boyfriend who is capable, reliable and generous.

She had even boasted a little in front of her friends and sisters before, but now the result is like this... If it were Kim Taeyeon herself, she would definitely feel annoyed and embarrassed.

Kim Taeyeon, whose emotional intelligence instantly took over, suppressed the excessive joy in her heart, managed her expression, looked at Lin Yoona, and gently called out: "Yoona~"

Unfortunately, the youngest member just pursed his lips and said nothing, and it was obvious that he was angry.

Jin Taiyan paused for a few seconds, then poked her head out again and asked in a low voice: "Um... I just told you that we would go out together in a few days to welcome Jingyuan. Are you... still going?"

Lin Yoona, who had been silent, instantly changed her expression when she heard the words. Her eyes became sharp, her teeth were lightly bitten, and her eyebrows were raised. Her face, which had been calm just now, immediately became interesting.

She looked at Kim Taeyeon with a grin, and used the fork in her hand to forcefully pierce a banana in the salad: "Go, why not~"

"Didn't I just say that I want to thank him?"
