The top of fame and fortune [Comprehensive British and American]

"Miss Parker, you have a body and facial contours that are in line with the golden ratio of the ancient Greeks." Tina Brown, the editor-in-chief of "Vanity Fair" who was born in the UK, spoke in a very orthodox Oxford accent.

10 minutes ago, after Erica's beyond-expected shooting ended, the legendary editor-in-chief replaced the original writing editor. It is extremely rare that she conducted this interview in person.

The interview location was selected as the reception area of ​​the editor-in-chief’s office. Under the wide and bright light from the floor-to-ceiling windows, Erica was sitting on a subtle and elegant beige sofa chair. She heard Tina Brown continue to say, “At the same time, it has both Hollywood Blond hair and blue eyes have always been preferred, which has almost become a symbol of sexiness."

Even though many people have held prejudices against blondes for a long time, thinking that most of them are stupid and ignorant girls, Tina Brown would not think of the blonde stunner in front of her in this way——

She has an intelligent face, a natural combination of classic proportions and blonde hair.She is glamorous without being frivolous or showy. When you are stared at by her deep green eyes, it is almost like an electric shock, but she is still calm, as if everything is under control.

But she is so young.

Under the age of 20, it is even difficult for people to figure out where this kind of "killing the Quartet" sexy style with no dead ends comes from.

Tina Brown thought the young girl was full of unsolved puzzles, and she continued to throw questions, words with British politeness, "Forgive me in advance, this question is just a curiosity, from the appearance. Look, I think you're a WASP?"

WASP, White Anglo-Saxon Protestant, refers to the descendants of European immigrants who first came to the United States, mainly Anglo-German, who are above the middle class and firmly control the elite class of American politics and economy.

Tina's guess has good reasons. Erica has a typical "England" style Anglo-Saxon blond hair and white skin, and she attended an Ivy League school with excellent grades. During her undergraduate internship, she was enough to enter the Wall Street giant Wayne Group .

But she got a negative answer——

Erica's voice was magnetic and quiet, "I am Jewish, and my grandmother was a Jewish immigrant from Italy who came to the United States during World War II."

Jews are passed down through the maternal line, and Erika's blond hair and blue eyes are rare among Jews, but they are not out of the ordinary.At least Erica's mother, Aurora Cohen, has the same physical features.

But Erica's grandmother was not like that.

In the old images that Erika inherited from her mother and preserved for many years, her grandmother, Arlo Cohen, is a woman with very beautiful brown hair and brown eyes, and a gentle but firm smile.

Erica did not have the opportunity to get along with her grandmother. All her memories of this woman who is related to her blood only come from the memory of her mother Aurora Cohen when she was a child——

Arlo was arrested in a Nazi concentration camp during World War II. In the early [-]s, he was rescued by the Howling Commando of the US Army and came to New York. In the following years, he briefly joined the US Army to conduct intelligence deciphering work.

However, the life in the concentration camp caused serious harm to her body, causing her to die young at the age of only 30.

Just as Erica was never told who her father was, her mother, Aurora, seemed equally confused.

In the Cohen family, 'father' is a strange symbol that no one has ever seen.

And 25 years after Arlo Cohen's death, her only daughter, Erica's mother, Aurora Cohen, also died in the line of duty at the age of 30.

This terrible coincidence is like some kind of horrible family curse.

Erica lowered her eyes, which made Tina Brown think for a moment that she was offended by the ethnicity issue just now.

"Sorry, my question was really rude and stupid." Tina apologized immediately.

The United States is an immigrant country that is very sensitive to racial discrimination. Today, in some hidden rules, there are still careful classifications for diverse races——

WASP naturally firmly occupies superiorism, and minorities such as Irish, Jewish, and Italian have always had a bad impression of WASP.

Erica, being Jewish, is mistaken for a WASP, which, in a way, is an offense to her.

But at the same time, Tina Brown also noticed that Erica made no mention of her paternal lineage.

As for being mistaken as English, Erica is obviously used to it. She tried to lighten her tone and explained, "In fact, my original surname is Cohen. Since I changed my surname, it is indeed rarely recognized. It's Jewish."

Cohen is a very common Jewish surname in the United States, but Erica had to change her surname after being adopted by the Parker family. In order to facilitate many matters in daily life——

For example, when she was just adopted, the Parker couple took her and Peter to Disneyland in Los Angeles for vacation.

However, from entering the airport security check, to various facilities in Disneyland, in countless occasions where verification of identity is required, since Erica's surname is different from that of the Parker family, they will always encounter careful and detailed inquiries from the staff to rule out Erica. Cards are abducted activations.

So the Parker couple temporarily changed her surname after obtaining Erica's approval. At the same time, according to Erica's wishes, they added her mother's name, Aurora Cohen, to her middle name.And Erika has the right to choose to change back to Cohen's surname at any time.

When Tina Brown heard that Erica mentioned changing her surname, she would naturally be curious, but this matter was undoubtedly private, and she could see that Erica didn't intend to talk about it, so Tina turned to talk about it. other interview topics.

Although "Vanity Fair" has always made hot reports with celebrity effects, she has never been an unscrupulous tabloid reporter, keen to use those dirty tricks to sell clients' privacy to grab money and fame.

I have to say that when Tina Brown faced Erika, she was treated with lenient treatment——

As the meritorious editor-in-chief who turned the tide and brought "Vanity Fair" back to life in one fell swoop, Tina has always acted forcefully, and was even called "the Yankees of the magazine industry" by her competitors. She is tough enough to drive everyone crazy.

But in Tina Brown's interview with Erica, she was very gentle and polite, even though Erica was just an unknown young man, she always maintained respect.

At the same time, Tina discovered that she had a pleasant conversation with the woman in front of her who was more than 20 years old.

Sixty-ten minutes later, when the detailed and exciting interview was completed, Tina's address for the blonde stunner in front of her had changed from 'Ms. Parker' to 'Li Ka'.

At this moment, the meritorious editor-in-chief of "Vanity Fair" Tina Brown looked at Erica, "Before tomorrow, this manuscript will be handed over to Michael Ovitz together with your wonderful shooting images."

——"Believe me, Rika, no one can turn a blind eye to you. This will be your dream battle to knock on the door of Hollywood."
