Chapter 1552: This Trip Is Worthwhile
This millennium restarted Victoria’s Secret show lasted about one and a half hours. All six themes were successfully completed and there was no need for reshoots. Therefore, at around 8:30, the angels re-entered the stage, accompanied by the still dynamic music, and started take a bow.
In all fairness, from the perspective of the show itself, Yu Xiaomin felt that it was far less enjoyable than the carefully edited TV version. After all, the audience locked in a certain position can only appreciate it from a single angle. However, the fiery atmosphere at the scene completely covered up this flaw.
I couldn't help standing up and applauding with everyone, looking at the Victoria's Secret angels who came out of the stage and finally gathered in a row on the stage at the back end of the runway, thinking again of the flowers in the fourth theme song, Yu Xiaomin also Can't help but look at the four Chinese models in the group of angels.
Jian Xin, Tao Yuelei, Jiang Mi and Shen Gui.
In fact, they have met each other, and they came here to participate in the fashion week for gilding. However, it is basically the kind where she can recognize the other party, and the other party probably won't remember her.
After all, a youtube blogger like her, even if she has an international reputation, is far behind several glamorous famous models. Among them, Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei also have the title of 'supermodel' certified by Eaglet .
In addition to the four models from China, Yu Xiaomin also noticed two other Asian faces. She did her homework in advance and knew that they were from Korea. One was Quan Youzhen and the other was Shin Chae Hye.
In fact, even if you don’t do your homework, you can roughly tell the difference just by looking at the appearance. The appearance characteristics of Koreans are still very obvious.
Maybe we can talk at the after party later.
The curtain call is over, and the show begins.
Here, you can actually leave through the backstage channel, and then go to the next stop, the Gramercy Hotel nearby, to attend the sideshow party.
Yu Xiaomin and Jiang Anqi were chatting and laughing, but they chose to continue leaving through the front door together.
Passing through the bustling crowd still blocking the gate of the arsenal, feeling the frequent flashes of spotlights around, and occasionally looking at each other for a moment, the two girls took the initiative to stagger, but they were also aware of each other's thoughts.
Exposure.
However, Yu Xiaomin later understood that even though there was not much interaction between the two parties, behind the scenes, in the final analysis, it was the Chinese team extended from the Westeros system, so many routines were common.
Just like here, it's not just the two of them deliberately passing through the front door, many celebrities are like this.
Obviously everyone also understands the dream doorway.
Leaving the congested neighborhood here, at the invitation of Jiang Anqi, they drove to the Gramercy Hotel a few hundred meters away in the other party's car, talking and laughing all the way.
Arriving at the hotel banquet hall, there was no spotlight here, Jiang Anqi politely said that she was going to say hello to an acquaintance, of course Yu Xiaomin would not rely on the other party, and also pointed to Vogue not far away, who happened to be nodding at her even though she only met a while ago The female editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour, is not alone.
Then entertain each other.
Yu Xiaomin chatted with Anna Wintour, went around a few guests, and exchanged some business cards.
One of them, a middle-aged man who introduced himself as the owner of Mujinhua Film Company, listened to her introduction of the project he was about to participate in, and became more enthusiastic. He also mentioned that their company had just created a blockbuster science fiction film this summer, called The alien file seems to have some impressions, and the other party invited her to take the time to chat, but Yu Xiaomin just left a business card and rejected the other party's invitation.
Mainly because of unfamiliarity.
Moreover, with a big backer like Daenerys, Yu Xiaomin doesn't need to look for other possible partners in a short period of time. The current expansion of contacts is for himself to better cooperate with Daenerys.
After chatting like this for a while, Yu Xiaomin was about to greet some Chinese models. The golden-haired middle-aged man he saw in the VIP lounge before the big show reappeared, holding a tall girl with a proud face, and happened to come over to meet Mu Jinhua The boss greeted her, met her, and introduced her very familiarly. The tall slender girl was his daughter, Ivanka, and then introduced her for his daughter.
Compared with the familiarity of the golden retriever, this is obviously a very proud girl. Although she is very polite, her indifference and alienation are quite obvious.
Yu Xiaomin is no stranger to this, and smiled skillfully.
She graduated from the acting department.
They were courteous to each other, and there was commotion around them.
I followed my gaze to an obvious place, and before I saw anyone, I heard the whispers of some guests around me clearly: Simon is here.
Simon?
This is a very common name in the West, but, in the current situation, the only one who can be called only by name and can cause such a reaction is obviously that big man.
Before Yu Xiaomin could react, Ivanka's voice rang in her ears: "Dad, I'll go say hello to Simon, um, don't follow me, okay, I'm not a little girl."
The girl had already moved away after she finished speaking. Obviously, she was very impatient being dragged around by her father to show off and socialize. Moreover, Yu Xiaomin also felt from the other party's tone that the girl's relationship with a certain important person was very unusual.
Looking at the middle-aged man who was thrown off, his expression was a little embarrassing. And, obviously, some kind of instinctive anger of a father after seeing his daughter being abducted by another man. It's just that, obviously concerned about someone's identity, this anger was actively suppressed, obviously the kind that didn't have the guts to burst out.
In the end, he smiled politely at the other party without any flaws, and Yu Xiaomin also turned and walked away with the red wine in his hand.
Did not go in a certain direction to join in the fun.
The arrival of someone is like becoming the star of this banquet hall in an instant. Even though most people still maintain their etiquette and do not rush past, the whole party atmosphere begins to revolve around this person. Anyway, Yu Xiaomin feels that her insignificant Little Comet is still waiting patiently.
It just so happened that Jiang Mi and Shen Gui, who had just noticed, hadn't approached, so Yu Xiaomin stepped forward to say hello.
Only then did I realize that I was still a little self-deprecating at first, and the two girls knew her, so they quickly chatted together.
Talking about the project of exploring the Brahmaputra Grand Canyon that I am preparing again, Jiang Mi, who seems very cold, is unexpectedly more interested than Shen Gui. After asking a few more questions, he expressed that he also very much hopes to go to the world's largest canyon Look at the intent.
Yu Xiaomin also immediately welcomed her.
Mount Everest, which has caused huge repercussions at the moment, has two very interesting participants, both of whom are well-known entrepreneurs in China. With the global popularity of the documentary, the personal fame of the two has reached a new level. At the same time, the domestic publicity The stage has also become a very important gimmick.
Now, for the new exploration project, Yu Xiaomin talked with Chen Qing when he was in China. Although it is impossible to invite two entrepreneurs to participate, when the time comes, he can also try to bring in a few celebrities.
Yu Xiaomin didn't have any idea about this at first, and was looking for it. At the moment, this is not a good time.
The girl in front of her who feels 1.9 meters tall is not only exquisite in appearance and figure, but also has global popularity. If she can participate together, she will definitely add luster to her project.
Yu Xiaomin then looked at Shen Gui.
It's a pity that compared to Jiang Mi, Shen Gui is a little more conservative and worried about safety issues. He also mentioned that someone broke his leg during the filming of Mount Everest.
This is real.
However, climbing the highest peak in the world, only someone broke a leg, this is already a fairly smooth adventure. As for exploring the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, according to the information collected by Yu Xiaomin and some preliminary plans, the safety is more guaranteed than climbing Mount Everest.
So we made an appointment again to take time to chat.
Separated from Jiang Mi, Yu Xiaomin made some calculations. Tonight's big show, not to mention other things, is already a worthwhile trip for her personally.
Afterwards, he greeted a certain important person smoothly.
Simon Westero was held by two girls on the left and one on the right, one was that Ivanka, the other was a girl who was obviously from Eastern Europe, who seemed to be called Lyudmila, and there were a group of yingyingyanyans around, so It's just a greeting. In front of these big goblins, Yu Xiaomin doesn't think she can gain any sense of presence.
The next day, Yu Xiaomin woke up in a high-rise apartment in the Upper West District, and asked the maid here to buy some newspapers, which were full, and all of them had news about the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on important pages.
It's just that, with a little regret, I didn't find any news related to myself.
Um.
It's strange to find it.
It was all about the grandeur of the show, which supermodels were more outstanding, and which famous guests were present. In addition, the theme of the show and the six background music songs in different languages were also mentioned.
Yu Xiaomin unexpectedly found an article commenting on those flowers. The writer is obviously a professional musician, and he linked those flowers with the song "Sheng Ru Xia Hua" on Mount Everest, which is still being screened in North America. I think that although the meanings of the two songs are different, they have many similarities in style, and they are probably the works of the same songwriter.
Yu Xiaomin hadn't noticed it before, but after reading the article, she also felt, as if, it was true.
For example, the weird chants that appear in both songs.
So I made a special search on the Internet, and found out that the main creators of the two songs had two names, and they were names that Yu Xiaomin had never heard of. They looked like pseudonyms.
After making up her mind to get such a theme song for her documentary, Yu Xiaomin wrote it down, and planned to contact Jinshu after returning to China to find out.
Thinking of China, I also took a look at the portal website there.
Same front page hit.
About Jian Xin, about Tao Yuelei, about Jiang Mi, about Shen Gui, about those flowers
There was a lot of jubilation.
It was also mentioned on the website that the domestic CCTV news also took two minutes to report on this fashion feast, including interviews with Jian Xin's four daughters, and clips of those flowers.
So I searched and searched again, and found the original video, which was rather blurry, but the whole report clearly gave off a high-spirited feeling.
In addition, this time I finally found a press release related to her. It was a photo of Jiang Anqi sitting with an article. However, the emphasis was on Jiang Anqi, which made Yu Xiaomin somewhat depressed, so she turned off the computer and started contacting China.
I also have media channels, so I can't let someone take all the limelight.
Moreover, I have to take the photos I thought about last night as soon as possible, as well as the meeting plan with vogue female editor-in-chief Anna Wintour yesterday, the appointment with Jiang Mi, and other things.
So I didn't even eat breakfast, and hurriedly started the day's schedule.
In any case, she had to go back quickly, after all, her studio was still in operation, and Yu Xiaomin didn't intend to ignore the foundation she had laid because of the work in hand.
After going on like this for a few days, I suddenly received an unexpected invitation from a certain big shot.
It's December 2nd, a Wednesday.
Yu Xiao
Min had already booked a ticket to fly back to China on Saturday, but after receiving the invitation, she left everything behind, and it didn't matter if she never went back.
Someone was sent there to pick her up, and Yu Xiaomin, who had dressed up carefully, left Manhattan by car and came all the way to the northern tip of Long Island.
Paying attention to the side of the road, when the black Mercedes-Benz car entered a seaside manor, Yu Xiaomin knew that this was Shadian City.
The snowfall before and after the Victoria's Secret show last week has stopped, but the road was still white when I first came. However, entering the manor seems to have entered a small space in a different world where the seasons are somewhat staggered. The manor is surrounded by dark green and neat fences, and the walls are covered with snow. Even the lawn beside the asphalt corridor is still green under the thin snow, probably because of the species.
Of course, Yu Xiaomin understands that it must cost a lot to maintain all this. At the same time, she also realizes that the man who created all this should be a person who is very sensitive to the passage of time in his heart, and he doesn't like decay or aging.
Then it inevitably feels a little weird.
The age of the other party, even this year, seems to be only 31 years old, usually you shouldn't have this kind of mentality.
Of course, this is not something she can care about.
The car stopped in front of the villa, Yu Xiaomin got out of the car, followed the waiter into the warm villa, took off the windbreaker, changed shoes, walked through the spacious hall, turned to the side corridor, feeling the emptiness that was unavoidable in the surrounding luxury, Yu Xiaomin thinks that people who can live here should also have a strong heart, otherwise, just this emptiness may drive people crazy.
Think outside again.
What a contradictory person.
When she came to a living room, Yu Xiaomin sat down and took a few sips of the coffee brought by the waitress. When she heard someone coming, she quickly put down her cup and stood up.
A man who was probably very familiar to the whole world entered the door, wearing a casual black pullover, khaki slacks, and cotton slippers on his feet.
The man was accompanied by two girls, Jiang Mi and Shen Gui. However, compared to the men, the two girls were dressed more casually. Each of them was only wrapped in a big bathrobe, and their tied-up hair was also wet. Yu Xiaomin also noticed that Shen Gui's neckline was slightly open, and there was only a piece of snow inside. greasy.
Could it be that he just came out of the bathroom?
A little distracted, listening to the man greet her, Yu Xiaomin quickly pulled herself together, shook hands with him, and said, "Mr. Westeros, I'm glad to see you again."
I have also met face to face before, but, compared to Jiang Mi and others, it is probably more difficult to leave too many traces on the other party when meeting this important person.
Simon shook hands with the restrained girl in front of him, and said with a smile, "Sit down, Jiang Mi said that she wanted to participate in your project, and Xiaoqing also mentioned it to me several times. Since I have time today, let's talk a little bit."
As he said that, he came to the sofa to sit down first, but he was not in a hurry. He leaned on the sofa and let the housekeeper who followed him gently wipe his hair.
Indeed, he had just come out of the bath.
In addition to the two beside me, there are Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei, as well as South Korea's Quan Youzhen and Shen Caihui.
Well, today is also a small topic.
Yu Xiaomin sat upright on the sofa opposite, patiently waiting for the man to speak, and then accidentally raised his eyes, feeling a little weird again. The woman who was brushing the man's hair had a gentle temperament, and she should be the type of a good wife at first glance.
However, just at a glance, it was probably a woman's intuition, and Yu Xiaomin felt that the woman's relationship with a certain man, um, how should I put it, some mothers are towards their sons, some wives are towards their husbands, and some servants are towards their masters. Until the woman stopped moving and glanced over seemingly unintentionally, Yu Xiaomin quickly narrowed her eyes.
Suddenly, she understood again, maybe she will be whatever the man on the other side told her to be.
Because that's Simon Westeros.
Just like a beautiful woman will inevitably make the man in the field of vision dreamy after a few more glances, the man in front of him, whether it is wealth, power, talent or even appearance, is fatal to women, and even just getting along with the other party, even if He didn't say anything, and it was hard for a woman to resist.
Yu Xiaomin felt that she must not be able to resist.
And the housekeeper who left quietly after drying the man's hair probably couldn't resist, even though he was holding the other two young girls in his arms while drying the man's hair. Thinking about it again, it was hard for Yu Xiaomin to find himself standing in that woman's position, because no matter what the man at the top of the pyramid did, he took it for granted.
When Angore left, Simon held a cup of coffee in his hand and asked about the project of exploring the Brahmaputra Grand Canyon.
Yu Xiaomin said everything, including the production idea, the binding with the current Mount Everest in the future promotion process, and the reason why she expressed her willingness in Jiang Mi, and she also very much hopes that the world famous model can participate.
The meeting lasted less than half an hour, and most of the time was spent talking by Yu Xiaomin, who didn't get much advice from the man.
However, Yu Xiaomin was already very satisfied when he left.
After all, after this meeting, the project has been registered with Simon Westeros. At least, unless Simon Westeros personally speaks, no one can take the project away from her, even if they want to take some credit , which is also unlikely unless she volunteers.
