Chapter 385 - 179: I Don’t Acknowledge, They Are the Wild Dogs Eating Shit in the Sewer_2
Although Gu Heng could understand Ouyang Nana’s words, he did not know what had happened...
Like Gu Heng, Song Qian also didn’t know the specifics, but upon seeing the bearded man and the skeletal old woman, she had a general idea of the situation and whispered to Gu Heng in Mandarin, "That bearded guy is Michel Gobert, a well-known music partner from France. He has produced music for many fashion shows for luxury brands such as Dior, LV, and Hermès, including the background music for this LV show."
As for that old lady, she is a famous V in the French fashion circle...
She has numerous titles, such as recipient of the French Literature Knight’s Medal, artist, poet, fashion Icon, dancer, fashion designer, painter, jewelry artist, singer, cross-disciplinary artist, and so on and so forth...
She is also an LV collaborative designer...
However, both of them are very famous for discriminating against Asians; there was a big anti-discrimination protest in France, and these two were the instigators..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng roughly guessed what had happened...
Obviously...
These so-called French artists, unable to change their true colors, started playing their racists games toward the Chinese people at the party, which led to a conflict with Ouyang Nana...
Thinking of this, Gu Heng immediately removed his hand from Song Qian’s waist and walked straight over to Ouyang Nana.
At this moment, Ouyang Nana’s pure and stunning face looked serious, and her eyes brimmed with menace as she stared at the two still smirking Caucasians...
Feeling someone standing beside her, Ouyang Nana instinctively glanced to her side and saw Gu Heng looking at her with a smile. Their gazes met...
Ouyang Nana was firm...
But from her continuously trembling shoulders, Gu Heng could tell she was very nervous...
Though she had seen her fair share of big events in the entertainment circle, at the end of the day, she was still just a young woman in her twenties...
For her to stand up against racial discrimination in this foreign land, surrounded by foreigners, was already quite responsible...
Seeing this, Gu Heng patted her shoulder and gestured for her to stand behind him.
Ouyang Nana was stunned at first, but then understood what Gu Heng meant, knowing he was going to take over the situation for her. Being well aware that as a minor star from Hua Country at such a high-profile party, she didn’t have much say, so she obediently moved behind Gu Heng.
She also filled him in on what had happened...
It wasn’t much different from what Gu Heng had guessed: these two Caucasians had disrespected a model from Hua Country, calling her "slitty-eyed girl," which Ouyang Nana, who was chatting with Liu Yifei, overheard. Acting impulsively, she confronted them to defend the model...
Regarding Ouyang Nana...
Gu Heng had some understanding of her...
As someone from Treasure Island, with a father in politics, if she were a typical star from the island, she might have chosen to remain silent and ambiguous to ensure she could make money both on the Mainland and on the island.
But Ouyang Nana has openly identified herself as Chinese on multiple public occasions, completely disregarding the ban and the insults from within the island...
In the past, Gu Heng only thought she was smart, forsaking the Treasure Island market to fully develop in the Mainland, which is why she made such a move...
But now, it seems this woman truly has a very clear and firm stance. Otherwise, why not just quietly fade into the crowd like Liu Yifei, then there would be no trouble?
After listening to Ouyang Nana, Gu Heng turned his gaze directly to the bearded man closest to him.
Seeing Gu Heng’s gaze, the bearded man raised his champagne, lifted his hand in a toasting gesture toward Gu Heng, and spoke with very elegant manners, "My friend Lady Mary and I meant no discrimination. We simply didn’t know the name of the Chinese girl; that’s why we called her ’slitty-eyed girl,’ and isn’t it a fact, after all? Is it since when telling the truth became discrimination?"
"Of course, as French gentry, I have very high manners, and if my words hurt your frail hearts, I am willing to apologize for them. But, I cannot admit to the so-called ’discrimination’ you accuse us of."
The skeletal old lady next to him made a standard insulting gesture and then began laughing at her own accord...
The surrounding onlooking party guests, witnessing this scene, looked at Gu Heng with anticipation, waiting for his response...
However, Gu Heng did not engage further with the bearded man and the skeletal old woman, turning instead to look back at Frederic Arnault, who was standing behind him. He spoke slowly, "Fred, what’s your opinion?"
Upon hearing Gu Heng’s words, Frederick Arnault was first taken aback before he replied with a very natural expression, "I have no objections; you can handle it however you see fit.
If needed, I can also get our LV PR department involved to help you manage this."
The words of Frederic Arnault made everyone present open their mouths in surprise... @@novelbin@@
You must remember, the bearded man Michel and the skeletal old woman Mary were long-time senior collaborators of the LV Group, but Frederic Arnault’s words implied he was completely siding with Gu Heng...
Under the gaze of the crowd, Frederic Arnault’s expression remained unchanged.
What do you think?
