Mr. Butler on the catwalk

Early in the morning, more than a dozen men in the house woke up one after another, and after washing, they all went downstairs to prepare for breakfast.Luo Lin also tidied himself up quickly. When he walked to the dining room, he found that everyone was crowded in front of the cooking counter in the kitchen, busy with their own food.

Luo Lin carefully read the LGM regulations before entering the camp.Among them, it is clearly stated that the accompanying personnel cannot freely enter and leave the camper's residence.Therefore, among all the accompanying personnel, no one brought a personal chef and professional helper.The group of well-known models in the training camp can't be said to be enthusiastic, and they seem to have no willingness to cook together.However, such a large group of men crowded together is indeed tiring to watch.

Male models from all over the world also have different eating habits.Although they are all aimed at a low-calorie diet, some people who are naturally picky can spend half a day even mixing a vegan salad.Luo Lin finally squeezed into his seat and started to prepare his own food, but Sith had already appeared in the restaurant: "The assembly is about to happen, boys, please hurry up, please?"

A small group of people left with their vegetable leaves and half-boiled eggs, and the rest of the group filled up angrily and began to compete for vegetables, eggs and cooking utensils.Luo Lin sighed, took out the largest glass basin from the cupboard, quickly grabbed a lot of lettuce, put cabbage in the basin, and took away the only three small yellow peppers left.Several people glared at Luo Lin, and Travis from Ireland even said pitifully, "Please, give me some left..."

Luo Lin washed the vegetables, shook the glass basin with one hand, and then tore the leaves along the lines.While doing this, he said in the simplest English: "I'll help you make breakfast."

Many people still looked suspicious and wanted to interrupt Luo Lin's action, but Luo Lin pulled out the ceramic knife at the side, habitually turned the handle of the knife between his fingers, and then quickly shredded the yellow pepper and then cut it into pieces. Put it in a basin.Pour three teaspoons of vinegar into it, and add a spoonful of olive oil. Luo Lin mixed the seasoning and vegetable leaves with a long-handled wooden spoon, then turned around and arranged a plate of ribs, and began to plate them separately.

Several men took their salads from Luo Lin's hand in a stupid way, but they still haven't reacted.Only the little boy Travis asked Luo Lin timidly: "Can you boil me an egg? I want..."

Luo Lin exhaled and looked around: "Does anyone still want eggs?"

Almost everyone who had a salad raised their hands.Luo Lin took out the pot, put eight eggs in it, then added water and put it on the stove.As if he had a timer in his head, he quickly turned off the fire at a certain moment, and then put the eggs into the eggcup one by one.Travis carefully cracked the shell of the egg—ah, this is the most properly cooked hard-boiled egg.The egg white has solidified, but the yolk is soft and semi-liquid.

Luo Lin's angry movements have been recorded in the camera by a photographer who appeared at an unknown time.The people around Luo Lin showed him friendly smiles, and among those who had finished their breakfast at the dining table, a few silently frowned at Luo Lin's figure.

Adechico is black.He narrowed his eyes and stared at Luo Lin for a while, then turned to Alfred beside him and said, "That unknown Asian is deliberately attracting others' attention, it's really disgusting."

Alfred smiled, his eyes fell on Luo Lin, but he didn't make any comments.

Raul sat on the other side of Alfred, and also said: "I know most of the people in this camp, but I am not familiar with this man... I really doubt how he got in? He looks like Like passers-by on the street, without any highlights..."

Alfred wiped his mouth with a napkin, and only said to the two people around him naturally: "The weaker the opponent, the better for us. Three all-a-list selections, divided equally between the three - this is our goal, remember?"

Raul nodded obediently, only staring at Alfred.Adecco responded, but still looked at Luo Lin with a gloomy expression.

……

After breakfast, the male models went out and got in the car, ready to go to the location of the first photoshoot.

In the car, Luo Lin did not sit in the first row like last time, but changed to the back seat.After the breakfast incident just now, he also had a few words with several models, and the atmosphere was quite friendly.However, when he sat down, a man silently stopped beside his seat, looking at him expressionlessly.

Luo Lin still remembered that this man was called Adechico.According to Zhang Yishan, he was originally a modern dancer on the east coast, but was discovered by scouts because of his eye-catching height.Adechico's skin color is very light among blacks, it is light chocolate, but the outline of his face still highlights the difference of race.

Luo Lin got up politely, thinking that Adechico wanted to sit beside him.Unexpectedly, Adechico said coldly: "Remember your identity, Asian. Some colorpeople are here because of their strength—" Adechico nodded his chest, and then said to Luo Lin: "And you are here just for anti-bias."

After leaving this sentence, he walked back to the front and sat with Alfred.Luo Lin sat back in his seat in a daze, still not understanding what Adechico meant when he came here specially.When the car drove, Luo Lin suddenly remembered that anti-bias means "anti-discrimination".

Luo Lin wanted to understand this, and suddenly felt humiliated, and even blushed a little.

——There is an unwritten rule in reality shows broadcast in the United States.That is to have an appropriate proportion of people of color on the show no matter what.This is almost a rigid standard-no matter how powerful those people are, they must show up, just to give an "anti-discrimination" appearance.

Luo Lin looked down at his hand, clenched his fist and opened it again.

……

The location of the first photo shoot was not far from the residence, and it arrived smoothly within 10 minutes of driving.It was an extremely wide exhibition hall, but the exhibits in the hall were removed.Heath Brown walked in from the side of the showroom with a smile and said to the models: "Boys, welcome to the Bronte Art Center! We will be doing our first shoot here, and this is your first time." Mission. Are you ready?"

The men answered in the affirmative neatly and loudly.

Sith rubbed his hands together, and continued: "As you can see, there are no exhibits in this art center—except this one."

Sith snapped his fingers.A staff member in black appeared from the corridor on one side, and lifted out a fully dressed wooden mannequin.

The men stared at the stylish clothing and accessories on the wooden mannequin, and began to care about it.Sith looked at them happily for a while, and then announced the content of this mission: "There are a total of 15 pieces of clothing and accessories on this wooden shelf. The name of your mission today is 'Body Art'. Here In the next task, you have to pick up a piece of clothing and accessories, and then wear only that part of the clothing for a full-body photo shoot. I will give you [-] seconds to seriously consider which one to take, and then listen to my order Get started, understand?"

The eyes of the models became extremely dignified, and the voices of the answers were absent-minded and quiet, as if they only saw the clothes and pants as their prey.Sith looked at his watch and counted 15 seconds silently, then called out "Go".

A dozen men rushed out the moment they heard the order.Adechico, who was as agile as a cheetah, ran in the front. He knocked the thing down as if declaring war on a wooden model, and pulled off a pair of white jeans in an instant.Such a rough behavior was a very appealing start, and the atmosphere suddenly became intense.Rivers took off the half-palm leather glove on the model's hand two or three times, and also pulled off one of the model's arms by the way.Alfred and Adechico seemed to have an appointment, the former removed a belt full of rivets from the waist of the latter's jeans.The good boy Travis and the black second-generation Nafario wrestled over a diamond-patterned scarf, and Raul on one side also greeted someone else's face with his elbow.Someone yelled "you son of a bitch" and the scene became chaotic.

Luo Lin originally wanted to take the sea-blue hat from the model's head, but a silver-haired figure flashed in front of him, and took off the hat lightly.Luo Lin felt that it was a pity, and wanted to find something to replace it, but was blocked by the crowd who wanted to fight.Because Luo Lin was not used to this kind of scene, he finally chose to stand quietly on the periphery alone.After a while, he inadvertently looked up at the person who was holding the hat, only to find that the corner of his lips curled up at him, showing a contemptuous smile.

...that's Sasha from the Russians.This man's face was the most androgynous of all the models, and also the most beautiful.Luo Lin thought, although he looks weak, is his character also so competitive?

Then Luo Lin looked away, thinking that when the competition was over, there would be one left over, and he would just come and get it.

After a few more minutes, the men finally ended the scuffle and stood apart with their trophies.Luo Lin approached the wooden mannequin to take a look, but found that there was nothing left—whether it was shoes, bags, accessories, nothing.

Seeing Luo Lin frowning, Sith approached and patted him on the shoulder: "What's wrong?"

Luo Lin simply replied, "I didn't get anything."

Sith raised his eyebrows playfully: "Huh? You didn't get anything?"

"Yes. Nothing left."

Sith smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry. In fact, someone else took your things by mistake."

He turned away as he spoke, and asked, "Who got the coat?"

American Sean puts his hand up.Sith asked Sean to hand him the coat, and then took out a brooch from the coat's breast pocket and handed it to Luo Lin.

"This is what should be yours."

The other models widened their eyes and looked at Luo Lin in surprise.The brooch that Luo Lin got was a leopard inlaid with platinum and diamonds, crouching on top of an emerald gem that was obviously expensive at first glance*.Luo Lin himself was a little surprised, but Sith smiled happily at him: "The one who grabs it first may not necessarily be the best, right? Take advantage of the opportunity, young man."

Several people cast complicated glances at Luo Lin, and Sasha even twisted the hat in his hand.Luo Lin looked down at the little leopard's brooch, and carefully put it away.

…getting a brooch isn’t necessarily a good thing because you can only take pictures with what you’ve got and keep the rest completely nude.Can a brooch cover any key areas?The answer is obviously no.Luo Lin stripped himself naked in the changing room, and changed into a loose tie-laced robe.The makeup artist began to apply makeup to Luo Lin, and Luo Lin closed his eyes and began to think about the actions he needed to pose.

Sith introduced the photographer of this time to everyone before the shooting, and then began to take pictures separately.The no-turns and those who had finished waited in robes in a small room off the studio.The place was not warm, Luo Lin sat silently on the sofa, watching other people talking in twos and twos.From time to time, eyes fell on him, but few were kind.

In fact, it's not their fault. Who told the photographer who recorded the show to focus on Luo Lin since the early morning—from breakfast to Luo Lin's unexpected harvest just now, he really became eye-catching.He is obviously the least famous of all the campers, but he has the highest photogenic rate. Everyone remembers the audience's vote and is even dissatisfied with Luo Lin.

Luo Lin didn't think about explaining anything, and waited for the staff to call his name, so he just got up and walked away quietly.

……

Originally, Luo Lin still felt ashamed of showing his body.After a long period of mental adjustment, I finally learned to be naked in front of others.The photographer beckoned him to go to the light, Luo Lin stood with his head down, and slowly took off his robe.The black robe slipped from his waist to the ground, Luo Lin breathed out, and slowly bent his body down.

Previous photographers have taken photos of many people, the most outstanding of which are three - Alfred, Aikawa Masahiro and Rivers.The emotions expressed by these three people are different, but they can follow his instructions very well, and they are excellent cooperators.He was going to ask the Asian guy to hold the brooch between his fingers, and then he would do a full profile shot.But unexpectedly, before he gave the command, the man seemed to want to try his own movements first.

The photographer hesitated for a while, but did not stop the model's movements after all.

After the shoot, the photographer just sighed to the TV camera: "He is unbelievable. There is something strange about him...I have to say, he just knows how to be a model."

That afternoon, the photographer quickly selected the best photos of each camper and submitted them to LGM instructors Luo Han and Gordon.Together with the host Sith, the two gathered the contestants and made their first comments and scores.

Luo Han still liked to laugh, but pointed out many mistakes of these campers mercilessly.He said that since the theme of the task is "body art", the nature of the investigation is the basic skills of still photos, that is, the beauty of movements and body lines.However, many people fail to meet this requirement - "Nafario, you look like a zombie wearing a scarf, your movements are stiff and unpleasant, get rid of it." Out of shape and showing too little body line." "Luke, Luke, Luke. You're all right, your body is as beautiful as a Greek statue, but what's wrong with your face? Your smile is horribly big, Please restrain yourself a little..."

The campers received evaluations one by one, and in the end there were only four who had not received a single word.Gordon, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: "After the criticism, let's look at some good things."

In the recording room where they are now, there is a not-so-huge LCD screen, which quietly lights up at this time, and a photo is replaced.

Pictured is Rivers.

His long blond hair was tied up high and loose, and traces of black highlights could be found in the hanging hair.His eye makeup is a thick punk black, and it's deliberately blurred.It can be seen that this photo was taken during an action—his right leg was bent up to cover his private parts, and at the same time the whole person leaped obliquely upwards, making his body appear at a wonderful angle of inclination.He spread his hands in half-palm leather gloves to the sides of his face, his unruly eyes and slightly parted lips revealed the sex appeal of a bad boy.

"Interesting movement, good eye contact. Effectively showcases the pair of gloves, and the overall coordination is very good."

Gordon said so.Rivers then shouted stupidly: "Did you see it? Did you see it? That's me! I'm about to fall in love with myself..."

Gordon ignored him: "...the next one."

Masaki Aikawa was next.His makeup is natural, and he just stands in the center of the photo, showing a half-profile photo with his head down.On his right hand is a pure black handbag, which is quite large, and when it hangs down, it can just block the key parts.This kind of photo can't be regarded as brilliant at a glance, but it looks very coordinated and comfortable.

"In the composition, the curves of the back and hips form a great S-shape, which is very beautiful. The curved arms make the muscles naturally stand out, and at the same time reflect the masculine characteristics of men. This handbag is very simple, with a natural and serious expression So it fits well. Most importantly, he doesn’t make the nudity visually oppressive and vulgar – which is very important in fashion advertising.”

When Aikawa heard the comments, his expression remained unchanged, he just said "Thank you" in a low voice, and bowed slightly forward.

The third is Alfred - his picture, let everyone gasp.

Everyone knows that a mannequin is the foil for the merchandise being sold.But a real supermodel will have a temperament that can easily conquer others.There is no doubt that Alfred has this potential.

Alfred chose a wide belt full of rivets.He pinned the belt loosely around his waist, stopping just below the hip bone, barely covering his private parts, and standing on his left foot, he relaxed his right foot, and crossed his ankle and left foot .In the upper body, his hands are crossed behind his head, his right arm pushes down to press his elbow to his chest, and his left elbow points upward.His chin was raised slightly, his eyes were not wide open, and then he revealed a smile full of kingly meaning.This smile is not arrogant, but it has a strange sharpness.And his seemingly casual movements are full of tension, and those muscle lines that are either relaxed or tensed undoubtedly show his absolute strength as a male.

There seemed to be some smiles in Gordon's voice at this time: "It's great. Apart from that, I have nothing else to say. Alfred, your LGM primary championship is well-deserved."

Applause rang out spontaneously.Alfred smiled, said "thank you" and raised his hand as a gesture.

"Snapped"

The photos on the screen switched again.The applause, which was originally enthusiastic, suddenly stopped strangely.

An Asian man appeared in the photo.The man's complexion was unusually white, and his makeup was extremely clean, even with an indescribable sense of transparency.He prostrated himself on the ground, with one hand stretched forward and the other to the side, propping up his body slightly.His neck is raised and his eyes are half-closed, as if he is observing the world.However, although his eyes are half-opened, his eyes are not misty, but a special kind of deserted and pure.As for the leopard brooch, it was put on the man's lips—it was said to be "put" because the man didn't bite the brooch, and he didn't even force it between his teeth, but only gently opened it between his lips. a seam.Because he raised his head, there was a clip on the back of the brooch that could be used for strength, and now the leopard brooch can bloom on his lips like a flower.On the whole, the temperament between the man and the leopard are completely similar, and even the crouching movements have echoes.This peculiar sense of consistency brings an absolute beauty that makes people unable to look away.

Everyone sensed a strange atmosphere and emotion.In this photo, it seems to be another world.

Gordon coughed: "A very beautiful picture. I have no doubt that if this picture were displayed in the window, it would attract tens of thousands of women to pay for this jewelry. I have to admit that I was shocked. "

Standing in the crowd, Luo Lin once again received the baptism of everyone's eyes.But this time, those eyes were hard to distinguish between good and evil, because most of them were staring blankly.

Luo Lin looked up at his photo.Is the man in the photo himself?

--Yes.He is you.You can also be so dazzling, standing in front of others.

"Thank you." Luo Lin responded so simply, and smiled slightly, he was still the usual, gentle him.

……

Next, Gordon announced everyone's scores.

Surprisingly, Luo Lin's score only ranked seventh.

Gordon said: "Luo Lin's pictures are very exquisite. But in our theme this time, the emphasis is on showing a large area of ​​the human body. However, Luo's choice of movements prevents his body from being fully reflected, which deviates from our I regret this. But I have no doubt that Luo Lin's potential is worth looking forward to."

Before returning to the residence after the review, it is time for personal interviews.Alfred, the champion of the first mission, expressed his modesty, and didn't involve others, and didn't show any other emotions.Almost all the remaining people either expressed their determination or started to comment on others.

Rivers (22): "Come on, can you believe it? I just found out that my roommate is called Luo... Luo or something. He is very good at pretending to be a good guy. I can't be fooled."

Nafario (23): "Everyone's escorts are absent today, Vaffanculo*, I'm going to complain about the show..."

Travis (22): "I was scolded, it was really scary...But one day, I will be like Alfred!...Of course, I like Luo Lin more, because He can cook...he's good..."

Sasha (24): "Some people think that performance in one mission is everything, I can only think that is sincerely stupid. I don't think anyone can win the final victory here except me. I am here to win."

Sean (28): "Alyssa my baby! Are you watching Daddy on TV? Daddy misses you so much! Daddy didn't behave well today, but I will cheer for you... Daddy loves you, kiss You have to do it thousands of times! Remember never to eat the toy of the rubber figurine again, and you must be good!"

……

Luo Lin (30): "...Before the photo shoot, someone told me that my role is to fight discrimination in the show. I want to prove that I am not just like that. I am already 30 years old, but I still want to work hard."

…At that time, Luo Lin would never have imagined that these words of his would be engraved in the minds of many people afterwards.Until he finally became a dazzling star, people still remember that this man was so serious and persistent from the beginning to the end.
