It's not easy to be a supermodel [Comprehensive British American American Entertainment]

Ed asked her, "Do you still like it?"

Leti carefully picked up her makeup photos, the one with wings was her favorite, and said excitedly: "I love it to death."

After being happy, Letty had to think about Victoria's Secret's motives again.

Only signing angels can get the treatment of going straight to the show without having to try. Other models have to pass the interview first. The general process is to invite the models you want to come up for interviews and fittings. After internal discussions, the models on the show will be notified. What kind of shape they have to choose slowly.

Now Letty directly skipped the second and third steps, and was notified on the spot to show and assign styles. She knows that there are even some models who have never come here for interviews and fittings. I am afraid that she is the first one besides signing angels. Confirm the models on the show, that is to say, other models who have not come to the interview have lost one chance to show and two sets of looks-why is Victoria's Secret so anxious?What the hell are they thinking?

Letty has already noticed that the matter is not simple, but she still has to ask: "Hey, why do you treat me so favorably? Is there some conspiracy?" Is that so?

This is not the most puzzling thing, Ed looked at the expression of the black-haired girl for a while, exchanged glances with other high-level executives, looked at her again, and said something that made her heart pause: "We can still give You shut up."

Letty gasped on the spot.

Close?OMG!

There are about ten sets of models in one unit, and only two to three of them have wings, which is enough to prove their rarity, and usually the wings are usually distributed to contracted angels, only to "outsiders" like her.

Not to mention big opening and big closing, the two most important models in a show, so they are usually signed by angels.

What does it mean for a pair of wings to expand and close?It means that she has the treatment comparable to signing an angel!

Under the gaze of four pairs of eyes, the brunette girl looked completely unintoxicated by the sudden joy, she looked directly at the chief marketing officer with calm eyes, "Mr. Lasak, there are no outsiders here, why don't we just talk Get it right, I know there is no such thing as a free lunch."

Ed was taken aback for a moment, his smile was still friendly, but there was a hint of parting in his eyes, "You are indeed a smart girl, just as Mr. Lex said."

—Martin? !Letty's pupils shrank, had he already been in contact with Martin?She is completely unaware of this!

Ed made a gesture inviting to sit, "Please sit down, girl."

Letty sat down silently, and at the same time looked at the four people in front of her calmly - besides Ed, there were Victoria's Secret designers and two other high-level executives, but she was alone, and the situation was very unfavorable to her.

Ed put his hands on the table and said slowly: "Tyra will no longer walk in the show, and Heidi will not go this year due to personal reasons. We lost two supermodels and pillars. I don't want this to be a downturn in ratings." One year, so I need you, Leticia."

Letty narrowed his eyes, then frowned again, "Mr. Lasak, what do you 'need' me to do?"

……

When Martin was sitting in his office, reading coffee and newspapers, the door was pushed open roughly, and someone came in menacingly, but he had expected this, and slowly put down the coffee cup in his hand , looking up, "You should knock on the door."

"Fuckthedoor!" She rolled her eyes, "You made a deal with Victoria's Secret without telling me? It's unbelievable!"

"Because I knew you would be unwilling, so I didn't tell you and let them speak." Martin rubbed his forehead, "In fact, brokers have the right to negotiate with brands for clients when they are not present. "

Letty opened the chair and sat down, sat up but stood up again, put her hands on the table, and pressed her body forward, "So what's going on here? You actually agreed to let me, Wei Mi and another Joint hype with famous models?"

"That's not what I meant." Martin said bluntly, "The company wants to use your fame to promote Miranda Kerr."

Letty exclaimed in disbelief: "What?????"

Miranda Kerr is a newcomer who debuted at the same time as Letty, and both belong to the WOMEN modeling agency, but one of them went to HF and the other went to business, so there has been no interaction.

Letty understood the situation in an instant, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Ha, why didn't they praise me like this before?"

"Because you insisted on developing towards HF at the beginning." Martin said, "Letty, your appearance is born to be a commercial material. If you were willing to become a business model, the company would definitely praise you like this at that time, but you If you want to go to HF, they don't know whether you can succeed, so they dare not bet. Miranda Kerr knew from the beginning that she would develop into business, which met the company's expectations for her. She naturally has the company's endowed resources for her."

Miranda Kerr's reputation is of course not as high as hers, but it's not too low. Who told her that she has a sweet face and voice that everyone loves, otherwise Victoria's Secret would not have decided to let her appear on the show. And let her jointly hype with Letty.

In order to achieve the best effect of this hype, the most effective way is naturally to find a model who is as famous as Letty to be hyped together, but the only one who meets this condition is Gisele Bundchen, who has already become a god. Of course, the model is not interested in getting involved in this kind of thing, and WOMEN wants to support Miranda, so the two hit it off.

It seems that the company intends to maximize Miranda Kerr's commercial value so that she can make more money for the company.

Anyone who has the habit of reading gossip magazines knows that scandals are often just a means of publicity. They appear before a movie or single is released, and when the promotional period is over, immediately pretend nothing happened. This is the most commonly used method in the entertainment industry. One of the methods, but even the fashion industry has followed suit, releasing some seemingly convincing news every now and then to keep the outside world guessing.

Just like Letty was injured before and has never explained to the public her injury and when she will come back, she and Victoria's Secret exchanged "scandals" with each other.

Could this be considered "hype"?Strictly speaking, it doesn't count. She and Victoria's Secret have never released fake news. They are just going around in circles with the outside world. It's probably a kind of - let them continue to guess, anyway, there is no loss to themselves.

It's the same reason as whenever a new movie is released, there will always be rumors that the hero and heroine are secretly in love or the two heroines fight each other for the limelight. This is all for the box office, and this has almost become a "rule" in the entertainment industry.

People who often read gossip news can roughly distinguish which ones are true and which ones are false, but most of the time these gossips and rumors make it difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Now Victoria's Secret has also learned the tricks of the entertainment industry to build momentum for itself, using the news of Letty and Miranda Kerr's "discord" or "mutual limelight" to draw the public's attention until the big Before the show, a high degree of exposure was maintained.

Just like Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks back then, but their quarrel was real rather than hype, and the torn force between the two is still to this day-Tyra has her legs blocked and is still blocked The whole fashion world talks about it.

Victoria's Secret and Letty's agency WOMEN have reached an agreement privately. They want to repeat the "Black Pearl Controversy" of the year, and she and Miranda Kerr—she believes that this girl was also arranged by the agent, They are just two pawns.

The company wants to promote Miranda Kerr, Victoria's Secret needs exposure and topics to create momentum for the big show, and Letty has won wings and closures again. This seems to be a win-win cooperation.

Letty didn't think so.

Yes, she really wanted wings and opening and closing, but she didn't expect to get what she wanted under such circumstances, and it was clearly arranged, so it would be better not to!

But does she have the right to choose?No, she should be really thankful that the company hasn't forced her a rumored boyfriend until now - this may also be because she has enough scandals now.

If she was an actress or a singer, she might have been arranged to "dating" with a male star she didn't know well at all. The West has a high acceptance of star love. If she remains single all the time, it may even make people suspect that she is gay or has some problems. (Letty has been suspected for being single and close to Freya), which makes the relationship one of the means of manipulation.

Martin looked at the unpredictable emotions in the black-haired girl's eyes, and sighed softly: "You have to accept this fact and think about the benefits this incident has brought you, Letty."

"No, I'm not disgusted by the hype, I'm just..." She shook her head laboriously, and laughed at herself, "I didn't expect that after two years, the environment I'm in hasn't changed much."

Leti does not deny that she has always been complacent about her achievements today. She thinks that she deserves all of this, because she has worked hard enough and has a certain talent, which makes her have many opportunities and opportunities that many models do not have. .

But even though she has been promoted from an unknown newcomer to one of the hottest models in the fashion industry, her living environment and power are almost the same as two years ago, and she was even asked by the company to lose weight and put in a hype.

The only thing that has changed is the number of fans she has on Twitter and her circle of friends. The improvement of her status is all an illusion. In the end, she is still being suppressed by the company and the brand. She is at the bottom of the food chain, and she is still working hard to climb up. struggling.

Letty had never been so determined in her purpose as at this moment.

She always wanted to be a supermodel before, but when she really touched the edge of a supermodel, she found that the reality was not as good as she imagined. To be honest, Leti felt that she was really crowned as a "supermodel" After being named, her life will be the same as it is now, but people's address to her has changed, from "supermodel" to "supermodel".

Supermodels have never been the pinnacle of the fashion industry. As Donatella said, the era when supermodels dominate everything is over.

She likes being a model, but just walking shows and accepting endorsements is not enough for her to climb to the top. If so, is she going to continue?It's impossible to give up now, and she doesn't have the courage to give up all this hard-won.

She doesn't want to be controlled by anyone anymore, but what exactly is she going to do?Will becoming a Versace shareholder change all that?Of course not, Letty is a little confused, maybe when the sales of the joint foundation that belongs to her and Maybelline are released, it will give her some enlightenment.

……

Letty, Martin, Miranda Kerr, her agent, and Victoria's Secret had a meeting to finalize the details of the hype plan.

Before entering the meeting room, Leti and Martin met Miranda and her agent outside, the two sides greeted each other, and Miranda took the initiative to find her.

The Australian girl said nervously: "I know we've never been close... What I want to say is that I don't want to affect our private relationship because my role conflicts with you."

Letty was surprised at first, and then understood why she came.

Miranda knows that she has a good relationship with angels like Giselle and Lima, and Miranda herself is a newcomer to Victoria's Secret for the first time, and she doesn't know anyone well. She is afraid that Letty will be with Giselle and the others. Talking about her bad made her fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness, so make friends with her first.

"Of course, I won't do it for real." Letty gave her a shot in the arm, "However, it seems that we won't be able to do it like this in places where there are outsiders for some time in the future' Friendly' conversations."

She didn't know what this girl was thinking, maybe she was as helpless as she was, or in fact she was happy to accept this hype, because as long as she had a relationship with "Leticia Lopez", she would get paparazzi, media and The "favor" of the masses.

But no matter what, neither she nor Miranda had a choice, and she couldn't blame her, nor would she vent her grievances on her.

Having said that, Letty didn't plan to have too much contact with Miranda, they belonged to different circles, and—she didn't know how to say it, it seemed that the aura of the two of them didn't get along well.

"I think so." Miranda nodded, looking relieved.
