Models are expected to work for their money.

And all the models in this photoshoot are delivering the goods!

Those thirteen year olds are working hard for their money.

Although I am missing the concept. What are they? her slaves?

What’s up with all the Coca Cola product placements in all these recent editorials?

China loves Coke... a lot. They have the best commercials for them at The World of Coke. And he has a Nike scok on! Maybe they represent her many children?

Maybe she's the incredibly chic older sister?

I can see where the confusion's coming from but the concept is actually simple.

These kids represents the young Chinese athletes. There was a documentary done previously on children as young as 4 years old being put to training for the Olympics in China. As you all know, China is not a well to do country and the way to make big money is by being an athlete. The ironing picture, no they're not slaves, it's to show their independence as this young athletes are put in a hostel and they have to do everything themselves.

The Coke and Nike are probably examples of endorsement they could get if they make it big as an athlete.
