MTL - Spoiled-Chapter 68
Even before signing a contract with Luke Modeling Company, "Poem" magazine contacted Han Yun, hoping to go with him to Paris Fashion Week to see the show this year.
Every year during the fashion week, major magazine societies are dispatched to send four people to the four major fashion weeks. Generally, one to three stars or models will be invited. This year's Paris Fashion Week tour invited the Korean Games and other A little fresh meat.
The small fresh meat is actually not old, but it is tender and well-maintained. He has performed a lot of idol dramas before, all following the campus prince f4 route, and now from time to time he is a guest male second, because the acting skills are embarrassing, no crew dare to ask him to act as a male lead.
He can't be said to be particularly red, or once red, and now he's out of breath. However, this old fresh meat, a girl with a bad brain has always been a lot, and the thief likes to buy marketing to buy a water army, fart big things are in love with hot search.
As soon as Han Yun went downstairs to Balmain's building, he received an overseas call from the editor of Shiyin Magazine.
"Mr. Han, I'm sorry to delay your time. I'm Zhou Wen, the editor of Shiyin. Didn't we set off for Paris on the 12th? Yes, this time, our magazine also invited Xiao Ming to travel with us He said that he wanted to leave early on the 7th and go abroad for the Spring Festival. Because we only had one charter flight to Paris, we had to go up and down in the magazine agency ... "
"You ... if it is inconvenient, first celebrate the Chinese New Year in China, and then go to Paris on the 12th as originally planned."
After listening, Han Yun said that it didn't matter: "I'm in France now, so I don't need to book a ticket for me."
The editor Zhou Wen over there was relieved. Xiao Ming likes to play big names. I heard that this time I was walking with an unknown model, and I was very upset that I was devaluing myself. His agent also called the magazine: "Let's say Mingming is also a frontline, is this male model heard to be a fifth-line? Is this downplaying our Mingming?"
Zhou Wen really wanted to tell him that Han Yun is really just a fifth-tier, but that is an international fifth-tier, and it can be considered a first-tier model when it is left in China! Not bad at all! And have you seen a video of Han Yun playing chess! No better than your family Mingming?
In addition, Han Yun is a model selected by their editor-in-chief Ruan: "Although Han Yun has been in the circle for three or four years, he is in an outbreak period. Give him up to a year and he will become a first-class male model."
Their editor's vision has always been unique, she said that the Korean Games will be fire, that is, it will be fire. Now giving him a job offer is to make good friends with him without any harm.
Zhou Wendao: "Sorry, Sister Ling, we signed the contract with Han Yun, and we can't regret it at this time."
"Well, if you say that the cooperation partner is like this, we won't cooperate with your magazine." Xiao Ming's agent is very proud. "We Ming Ming hates other artists the most, he is hot, our work contract A clause should be added to restrict his contact with Mingming. "
Because Xiao Ming is already out of breath, he pays special attention to other people's views. In Xiao Ming's opinion, since "Poem" magazine invites himself and another model as guests at the same time, those who work with him at least have to It's Song Lin's international supermodel!
So when the magazine told him that the model he was traveling with was a male model he hadn't heard much before, he had a temper, and even rudely requested to leave in advance to go abroad for the New Year.
This is a bitter job for the staff of the magazine. Originally, there was no holiday throughout the year. This year's fashion week also happened to collide with the Spring Festival. Originally, I did n’t go to Paris until the third day of the new year. Now it ’s okay. I have to leave before New Year's Eve!
New Year's Eve cannot eat!
However, it is not easy for the magazine to offend Xiao Ming, because Xiao Ming is famously arrogant in the circle, who would dare to step into the mud if he provoked him. He is arrogant and has arrogant capital. His family is rich and powerful, and he has been smooth since he joined the circle. Everyone knows that he is not easy to mess with, so everyone in the circle let him hold him.
Han Yun didn't care about this person. In fact, he did not care about public opinion and gossip. He did not know who Xiao Ming was.
Hanging up the phone, he took Mengmeng into Balmain's design building on Fubao Avenue. This building has a history of hundreds of years. It is only four stories high, with a total area equivalent to the size of a super football stadium. Its appearance is rather low-key, and only the white classical entrance hangs the Balmain logo.
Han Yun was notified by phone call. The person who called him was the secretary of Mr. Benjamin, the design director of Balmain.
The other party first congratulated him for passing the Fashion Week interview, and then informed him that there is a second round of interviews. The specific Korean Games are not clear, only that he has found a new job.
Before going, Mengmeng told him some popular Balman brand stories: "Mr. Benjamin is the new design director of Balman and he is also a gourmet connoisseur. The first big show since he took office last year is very sought after. He is a fantastic geek with a design style of classic court blending modern softness like this. "Mengmeng showed him a few pictures of models on the show last year." This year's trendy color mustard is his show. Appeared first. "
"Balman mainly makes high-end customization. Other clothing, bags and shoes are superb in quality and price. There are fewer stores. Purchases need to be booked in advance ..."
After Han Yun entered, he was taken to the fourth floor by the secretary of the director.
The fourth-floor-facing balcony is covered with a layer of turquoise high-quality turf. Below the balcony is the central garden of the entire headquarters. These interesting designs are not visible from the outside and can only be seen after entering.
In the design work room on the fourth floor, many people were busy. Han Yun was led by the secretary through the long aisle, and finally walked to the door of an office. The secretary said, "Please wait here, right, No photos are allowed here, please forgive me. "
On the black wall, there are photos of Balman fashion from the last century to date. There are black and white photos, color photos, male models and female models. It shows comprehensively in each period, during the reign of each designer. , Balmain's brand style.
Han Yun sat down. There were two secretaries sitting outside the office. They all looked up at Han Yun. Han Yun and Mengmeng whispered, and the secretary came out, "Mr. Benjamin is still busy, wait ten minutes."
As soon as ten minutes arrived, the door opened on time.
After the last guest went out, it was Han Yun's turn to go in. There is a table of secretaries behind the door-this designer has a total of six secretaries, four of which are young handsome men.
The secretary guided Han Yun in and walked through a long, labyrinthine corridor again before he really reached the office.
In such an intricate building, the most prominent fashion celebrities often like to hide themselves in the most secret places.
At the bottom is Benjamin's personal design studio.
The space for conversation was neatly packed. The room had a scent of aroma. Benjamin wore a seven-sleeve turtleneck sweater in the room and a black cat with blue eyes in his arms. The sentence is: "Please sit down."
The clothes that Han Yun wore today were brought from China. This is the clothes in his closet, prepared by Fu Yuan. Who knows where he got them from, but Han Yun likes to wear clothes that are simple and comfortable, so The clothes and fabrics are top-level, and the design is also minimalist with a touch of oriental style.
Benjamin looked at him a few times, and easily let Han Yun sit down and ask him what to drink.
Han Yun said yes, the secretary went out and brought them two glasses of frozen green detox juice. The color of this juice is like the color of avocado mixed with bitter gourd, which is somewhat appetizing.
Mengmeng whispered, "This juice is particularly hot on s, Hollywood, fashion circles, everyone is drinking, a glass of ten or twenty dollars."
Benjamin's time was precious. He stroked his cat lightly, which led to the topic: "I've been looking for the right fitting model, but all the fitting models are not up to my standards. They can't give me valuable inspiration. It's too bad. "
After Mengmeng whispered in translation, Han Yun's expression did not change. He lowered his head and drank the juice, and then put it down. This juice is really difficult to drink.
The so-called fitting model is the most basic job in all the work of the model. As the name suggests, it is trying on clothes and giving clothing designers feedback on the clothes, which is the designer's model.
Of course, becoming a fitting model for Balmain's design director Benjamin is not a concept at all.
Mengmeng guessed: "I think what he meant was that none of the models he found could inspire him, so what he was looking for was not a fitting model, but a muse."
"Muse" is the person who provides inspiration for designers.
Benjamin said: "I was inspired at first sight. Of course, you still have to pass my interview." He stood up, jokingly, "don't mind going to my small office?"
"Of course." Han Yun also stood up and walked into the door next to him.
The outside is the hospitality area. The inside is the area where he usually works. It is very spacious. It is either clothes or magazines. There is a workbench and sewing machine for tailoring. It can be seen that he has a small team and often gathers. Working here, there was still some shreds on the ground, a little messy.
"In fact, I have some new designs here, designs that no one has seen, but the finished product has always made me unsatisfied." Benjamin said, and took off the clothes on the fake model in the room and handed them to Han Yun. "You go and try."
Han Yun felt more and more that language is a big problem. In fact, his language has improved a lot these days, because he will inevitably communicate with people in foreign languages. He often does weight-loss exercises and Pilates while backing these days. word.
It can be said that he was not so diligent when he was emperor.
The suit Benjamin gave to Han Yun is an unfinished semi-finished product. A black suit jacket with embroidered beading, invisible black lace on the neckline, burgundy ostrich hair and peacock feathers on the cuffs, and trouser legs. With the same design.
Having been in the circle for so long, Han Yun is not as ignorant as before. He now knows that, in fact, the so-called fashion represents a part of taste. If this outfit is worn out now, it will definitely be worthless and make people laugh, but as long as Balmain released this design, it will become a fashion sought after by everyone.
As soon as Han Yun changed his clothes, he felt a little tight, and it took him some time to put on his pants.
He buttoned the button and went out, facing an interviewing gown.
The design of this dress is a bit exaggerated. At first glance, it is the style that appeared on the show. The texture is stiff, because it is a bit tight, and it outlines the figure of Han Yun. His short black curly hair also neutralizes this. This too rigid design makes the clothing itself softer.
I did not expect what the ostrich feather did not do, and the model wearing it did it.
Benjamin touched his chin, and a gleam of light flashed from the eyes behind the lens: "kg, what do you think of this outfit and what needs to be improved?"
Of course, Han Yun is just a model and not a designer. Benjamin didn't ask this question to listen to his opinions. He just asked it politely.
Unexpectedly, Han Yun really nodded: "The lace on the neckline made my neck uncomfortable, the ostrich hairs on the cuffs and ankles were very itchy, and I couldn't raise my arms in this dress."
Because Mengmeng translated quickly, she finished translating and realized what Han Yun had said-she couldn't raise her arms, because your upper body was stronger than the one designed by this dress! It has nothing to do with clothes!
She looked at Benjamin with a sullen expression, fearing that he would be angry.
"You're right." Benjamin did not show his displeasedness, bent over, put the kitten struggling in his arms on the ground, walked to the workbench, and picked up his hand-painted watercolor book for clothing design. , While lowering his head quickly and scribbled something, while looking up at Han Yun from time to time, "When designing, I considered these issues, but this dress is a semi-finished product, and some military uniform designs, such as Shoulder pads, medals, this is a bit old-fashioned ... I need new inspiration. "
Mengmeng translated to Han Yun. She did not expect that Benjamin is completely different from the irritable and arrogant rumors in the rumor. On the contrary, he is more gentle than most designers and will make jokes, although there is no smile.
The black cat placed on the ground by Benjamin walked towards Han, and after walking around him, he sniffed and sniffed his trousers.
At this time, Benjamin was quickly completing his inspirational creation. No one knew what he was painting, but it was clear that he was indeed inspired by this oriental model called kg.
At first, when he saw Han Yun, he came to interview. He wore the uniform of Barman's interview, a Greek-style black "tunica". This style of clothing often appeared in classical oil paintings, and this oriental model looks like It is a beauty who came out of classical oil painting.
His temperament is very prominent, but some are too strong. Especially when he walked the show, he grabbed the limelight of other models. Perhaps he didn't pay attention to this and did not converge at all. I can only say that fortunately his looks are soft and his hair soft Or it would be too sharp.
But today, when I saw it, it was slightly different. This model's strong temperament weakened a little, it became free of impurities and looked very clean.
This shows that he has a trait, that is, what he wears like, but still has his own temperament. In this industry, this characteristic is very important. Sure enough, he randomly took a semi-finished product and replaced it with a different temperament.
Han Yun stood there for about half an hour. The cat sat next to his feet, and his tail flung on his trouser legs.
He was a bit tired and thirsty. Mengmeng asked him if he wanted to drink the detox fruit juice. Han Yun shook his head and refused. He stood upright and his work attitude seemed very correct.
Half an hour later, Benjamin stopped his pen. He drew about six or seven designs, all of which were inspired by Han Yun's figure and temperament. In his rapid creation, Benjamin realized that perhaps this oriental model was the muse he had been looking for.
So after stopping writing, Benjamin called the secretary and quickly drafted the contract: "Balman wants to hire you as a royal model and also my personal fitting model. You are on call and we will give you the best salary."
After standing for half an hour, I got a formal job. It was incredible for Mengmeng. She didn't know how the Korean Games did it. It was too lucky ... No, I should say Han Yun is a rich and lucky type.
Most people can only envy him, but it is impossible to follow his path, because others can't afford so much money to invest in modeling companies.
However, under such favorable conditions, Han Yun also talked to the other party about the conditions: "I will not settle in France all the time. I stay here for a maximum of four or five months a year, and it is impossible to arrive on call. "
Benjamin's secretary smiled: "Except for the annual Spring-Summer, Autumn-Winter Fashion Week shows, which are occasional fashion conferences, maybe only once or twice a year. As for the rest of the time, it is fitting to provide inspiration for Mr. Jamming."
"We understand that you have other jobs, but Mr. kg, this job can be encountered but not wanted, you want to be clear."
"I can sign a contract," Han Yun said, "but I can't stay here all the time. If I were in France, I would be happy to serve Balmain."
In Han Yun's eyes, working for Balmain is just a launch pad for his accumulated experience. Of course, he will not work here all the time, taking every minute and every second of himself to change clothes.
After signing the contract, another two days passed. The day before New Year's Eve, the charter of Shiyin flew to Paris. The next day, the editor of Zhou Wen called him again: "Mr. Han, we have just arrived in Paris. You live Where? Next week's fashion week, we will work together. Everyone is now in a foreign country, no relatives and no reason, ready to have a dinner together tonight. How about it? "
Han Yun just returned from work. He interviewed six brands. I do n’t know if it is the key recommendation of Luke Models. All six brands notified him that he passed the interview. Therefore, Han Yun has been busy going through the secret shows of various brands. Practice catwalk.
The catwalk practice is usually a half-day, there is no technical content, that is, sequence, beat, fixed point, and there is no need to rehearse day and night. He has just finished work and is taking a bath. Because his hands were wet, he opened it out, took a towel and wiped the water off the phone. He wanted to say that he had relatives and friends, so when he didn't come, he heard a voice from the other end of the phone: " Who is it called? Is that the five-line wild model, leave it, editor Zhou, the kind of people who are not three or four come to pull us Mingming selfie selfie hot, today is Mingming guests, do n’t call messy people ... ... "
Han Yun didn't hear clearly, he heard someone say that he is a five-line model, and there is a sentence that is inconsistent.
Zhou Wen, who was on the other side of the phone, quickly covered her mobile phone. I did n’t know if Han Yun heard it. She was a little embarrassed. After all, the person who proposed to go to New Year ’s Eve for dinner was Xiao Ming. New Year's Eve, have to drag so many of them abroad on this day, just to have a meal at a Michelin restaurant abroad?
What's so interesting ...
However, the staff of the accompanying magazines were quite excited. For the first time, they met such a wealthy and generous star as Xiao Ming and asked them to eat such an expensive Michelin restaurant.
Before she thought about it, she heard Han Yun said, "Forget it, I have an appointment today. Where do you eat?"
China is six hours faster than Paris, so they finished their New Year's Eve dinner and waited until six in the morning to be considered a truly Chinese New Year.
Zhou Wen paused and said the name of a French restaurant. At this time, a Michelin-starred restaurant belonging to Lole Chadrot. At ordinary people, it is impossible to choose this kind of place for New Year's dinner, but Xiao Ming said that he was entertained and went. The most expensive and difficult restaurant to book.
"So clever?" Han Yunzhuang was surprised. "I'm meeting someone in this restaurant, and I'll probably meet later."
In fact, the Korean restaurant didn't hear much about which restaurant.
Zhou Wen said "Ah": "That's ... coincidentally."
Han Yun laughed: "You eat yours, we eat ours."
After hanging up the phone, he asked Fu Yuan outside: "Which restaurant is she talking about, do you hear me clearly? Let's eat."
Mengmeng was still making dumplings in the kitchen downstairs, and heard that Han Yun was going out.
"Han, why go out? Are you working?"
"No, let's go out and eat together. Don't make dumplings."
Mengmeng glanced at Fu Yun who was standing behind Han Yun and lowered his head to wear a scarf for him. He said with a wink, "No, I have all the dumplings packed, you go."
"What dumplings to eat, go for ice cream!"
Mengmeng fluttered and smiled: "This winter, Han brother, you are not afraid of cold, eating ice cream."
"No, that restaurant is called ice cream, and I think it's strange. Whose restaurant would call it that?"
Mengmeng stunned, would not be: "... Michelin?"
Han Yun patted his head: "Ah yes, it's Michelin, I'm wrong." When he was sitting, Fu Yuan naturally squatted down and put on his shoes, but Han Yun looked like they were used to it. That's it at home.
Seeing it, Mengmeng insisted even more. She had a self-knowledge and would not disturb these two plays in court drama.
