Chapter 45
Diana Swift had already forgotten the strange feeling at the moment downstairs, and when she returned to the apartment, she rubbed her hands and her arms and shivered uncontrollably.
However, she was in good spirits and excited at the moment. She put on a coat and sat in front of the computer, secretly put on Bonnie Smith's black-rimmed glasses, and soon began to work.
Chris Chou was born in a small southern town. His father was a well-known painter, and his mother was a celebrity who came from an intellectual family in S City at the end of the last century. However, the man became famous in middle age and became a hot potato, and his paintings sold well at home and abroad. At Sotheby's autumn auction in the 1990s, his painting, The Shirt of Spring, was sold for nearly ten million yuan.
In order to seek more long-term development, when Chris Chou was in his early teen years, his father immigrated to L City with his family.
Nowadays, his family have indeed become a well-known existence in the Chinese circle in North America.
Chris Chou himself was an outstanding person, and he could be regarded as the most shining star in the fashion circle in recent years.
He was a typical academic designer. He graduated from Parson College and performed well during his school days. He has interned in a brand under a luxury group and the most authoritative fashion magazine in the United States. After graduation, he joined the luxury group to work. Later, he resigned to create his own brand with his name, Chris Chou, and he hold his show in New York Fashion Week the following year. His subsequent shows were held in four major fashion weeks and won the appreciation from the public. Moreover, his sales have grown steadily.
The color-blocked T-shirt he designed was so popular two years ago, and almost every fashion blogger at home and abroad would have one. In the annual selection of miscellaneous items, his color block T was basically rated as the most popular street shooting item, and Diana Swift bought the entire series at that time.
He returned to China to hold the show this time because of the invitation and generous sponsorship support from many parties, and he himself believed that this season's design works needed to be presented in the soil where he lived as a child to achieve the most appropriate effect. 
Diana Swift held her chin in front of the computer and thought for a while, and finally responded to Chris Chou.
She has to cooperate with him this time because the opportunity was rare, she couldn't give up.
Chris Chou has worked with Diana Swift before, and he was confident in her. When she responded to him immediately, he directly agreed to cooperate with her without seeing her drafts. The two chatted on the Internet for a while, and then made an appointment to meet for a detailed discussion.
Before the show was released, the designer's works would be kept in a highly confidential state, and the designer could only negotiate with her in person.
And after she read the relevant design drafts and design concepts, they have to take those papers back.
Before going out, Diana Swift changed several sets of clothes nervously, always feeling that it was not very appropriate.
After arriving at the executive lounge of the hotel, she was restless, for fear that Josh Hunter would suddenly appear from the corner, and it would definitely be so awkward if they met here.
But it turned out that she had thought too much.
The meeting lasted from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm, and Chris Chou warmly kept her for dinner at the hotel, but Josh Hunter didn't appear.
Well, it made sense. There were so many hotels under Lux Hotel Group, and his office was in the headquarters building. How could he appear here by chance?
On the way back, Diana Swift couldn't tell whether she was disappointed or relieved. And she didn't have the mood to touch up her makeup.
In the following week, Diana Swift was making the plan for the show in the apartment, she took it so seriously and always been professional.
Bonnie Smith's magazine was very concerned about Chris Chou's show, but Diana Swift didn't release any news to this deputy. And Diana held the computer every day to guard against her girlfriend and took it as her professional ethics.
Bonnie Smith was so angry that she wanted to kick her out.
Diana Swift didn't worry about it, because after she hold this show successfully, then she could earn a lot of money.
The level of the design in the home was still developing, especially the high-end design. It was not easy for Chinese designers to make a name for themselves. If someone liked Chris Chou could go back to China to hold a show, there must be people willing to sponsor him.
The show budget given by Chris Chou was as high as tens of millions of yuan, and it was not a low price.
Compared with the regular external sales after the show, it could be said that throwing money to hold the show did not count the cost.
To make a show worth rens of millions of yuan, Diana Swift, a co-designer, could get the well-paid.
But this generous reward was not easy to earn.
Just the designing plan, Diana Swift and Chris Chou had discussed for a whole week.
After the plan was finalized, and finally decorated the stage, Diana Swift had to personally supervise the scene.
"No, you should move it to the left a little, don't move too much. Enough!"
P City has entered the early winter, and the outdoor wind was so cold that it was like a knife cutting meat.
Although Diana Swift was not a female star, she didn't wear many clothes in winter just like those stars. The low temperature was near zero, but she just wore a thin black off-shoulder sweater and a thin camel trench coat. Her slender, white, and tender fingers were exposed, and the phalanx was frozen and became red.
Although Chris Chou was Chinese, his design style had always been full of European and American elements. This time, he rarely used cheongsam and Suzhou embroidery elements in his designs. The reason why he would do this was to meet the huge market demand commercially, and the other was to surprise his mother for her birthday.
His mother lived in S City for many years and loved all kinds of cheongsams when she was young. His designs in the spring season could also be said to be a gift to his mother.
Diana Swift learned that his parents had been in love for many years, and before deciding on the theme of the show, she deliberately found his father's collection of paintings in order to discover something.
The final theme of "Thin Spring Shirts" was to pay tribute to his father's most famous oil painting, The Shirt of Spring.
Diana Swift decorated the main show, which was designed to be a stranded ship in the old Shanghai period. The original waterside piano ladder in the hotel had been preserved, and after a little processing, the staggered interaction extended all the way to the top of the ship, becoming the main runway.
In addition, in order to create an immersive sensory experience for the audience, Diana Swift and Chris Chou designed an immersive video art installation with the same name as the show theme, creating a completely enclosed visual space outside Lux Hotel Group.
Diana Swift had also put a lot of effort into the lighting of the show. First, she asked a professional lighting and stage artist for help. Then, in order to achieve the gorgeous effect in the design draft and highlight the theme of the show, she ordered a batch of lighting from a well-known foreign lighting designer abroad. These lighting sets had cost millions of dollars.
At this moment, Diana Swift was instructing the lighting arrangement. These things were extremely expensive, so she couldn't make any mistakes. She also did not allow the things that she has spent a lot of money to bring back to not be placed in their proper place.
"Change from A1 to A4, the C1 point is wrong, it's not accurate at all, please re-install it." She stood in the cold wind and gave instructions. Seeing that the workers did not install it correctly for a long time, she had to go forward in person, "Here, that's right, just move it to a little bit left ."
Seeing that the position was right, she took two steps back to look at it.
Before she could nod her head in satisfaction, the worker suddenly became frightened, "Be careful!"
Before he could finish his words, the crystal lamp above Diana Swift was falling to the ground.
This accident shocked everyone at present.
Diana Swift felt that something was broken nearby, and she was stunned for a moment. Before she could fully understand what happened, she was pulled hard by someone.
She was wearing ten centimeters of narrow stiletto high-heels, and due to her being pulled so hard, she felt her ankle was painful.
Soon there was another loud cracking sound! But in the next second, her ears and head were covered by someone, and she was hidden in one's arms.
Compared with the loud noise, what she could hear more clearly was the heartbeat in that person's chest.
 It was powerful and familiar.
In the cold wind of early winter, she smelled the reassuring smell of fir trees, which could confirm her.
Her nose was red from the cold, but her eyes were unblinking as if she was in a daze, but she was greedy and didn't want to leave.
Josh Hunter's bodyguards rushed up immediately, and the executives who accompanied Josh Hunter to visit around also urgently called the staff to deal with the situation, and stepped forward to be concerned about his condition.
"Mr. Hunter, are you alright?"
"Mr. Hunter, your hands are bleeding!"
"Hurry up, call an ambulance right now!"
Someone pinched him and said in a low voice, "You don't even been smashed by it!"
After a long while, Josh Hunter answered calmly, "I'm fine."
He still hugged Diana Swift tightly, without even looking at them, only Diana Swift could feel the arm that hugged her seemed to be shaking slightly.
Sam Rodriguez stood below the stage, calming himself down and asking the executives to leave.
Everyone was gone, and Diana Swift regained her senses.
Josh Hunter loosened her while she pushed him gently.
He wore a black woolen coat today, lining his skin into an almost transparent white, his hands were hanging down, and the blood mixed with broken glass tickled on the deck of the ship, which was deliberately aged, it looked terrible.
Diana Swift was a little at a loss, and after a while, she had untied the decorative silk scarf from the bag and handed it to him.
He didn't pick it up, instead, he stretched out his hand in front of her, and just stared at her.
She hesitated for a moment, then hesitantly put the silk scarf on his wound, and then hesitantly tied a knot.
They didn't say anything. Diana Swift thought it was so awkward.
She finally looked at him, and suddenly said, "My silk scarves are so expensive. The lamp is expensive too, what should I do if it is broken. "
After that, Diana Swift closed her eyes helplessly. She was so regretful for what she said.
But at the moment when she closed her eyes, a calm male voice suddenly sounded in front of her, "I will make it up to you."
