The next morning.
Xu Xinduo opened her eyes, looked around, and after making sure that Tong Yan was not in her room, she let out a breath, then got up, washed, changed into her daily clothes, and walked out of the room.
Grandma Xu always gets up early. She was sitting in the living room peeling melon seeds and eating them, seemingly waiting for the replay of the Spring Festival Gala. When she saw Xu Xinduo, she asked, "Are you going out so early?"
"Yeah, yes, I'm going out to play with friends." Xu Xinduo was not ready to tell Grandma Xu about her work.
"Aren't you going with Yanyan?"
Xu Xinduo felt her cheeks slightly hot when she thought of Tong Yan. He stayed by her side last night and insisted on watching her fall asleep before leaving her room.
Tong Yan's whispered words as he approached her seemed to still echo in her ears: "Happy New Year, good night."
I had no idea that Tong Yan was so clingy.
She avoided Grandma Xu's gaze and said, "It's all girls who go out."
"Oh, go ahead, and come back soon."
"Well, I can't come back for lunch, so I might be a little later in the evening."
"I'll wait for you to eat together tonight, as early as possible."
Xu Xinduo nodded, quickly went downstairs to meet up with Deyu, and went to the shooting location together.
When Xu Xinduo arrived, the staff had not arrived yet, but Brother Zhang arrived very early, probably because he wanted to leave a good impression on the magazine. This was the first time the two sides had cooperated, and Brother Zhang was also very cautious. He came here today specifically to accompany Xu Xinduo.
After the two of them met up, Brother Zhang couldn't help but ask Xu Xinduo: "Do you bring your own resources?"
"My elders in the family took me to meet the editor-in-chief."
"I also thought about it and felt that they can't know you based on a popular Weibo post. The two shooting styles are completely different."
Xu Xinduo stopped talking. Brother Zhang felt that he had really found a treasure. This kind of model who had her own resources and was sensible was their favorite.
He has excellent personal qualities, is a hot topic, has great resources, and most importantly, is easy to lead.
If this cooperation goes well, it can be regarded as one of his great achievements.
After the staff arrived, they turned on the heating equipment, that is, the central air conditioning, after entering the house. The venue was empty, and warm wind was blown out slowly, but it didn't immediately turn warm. I didn't even feel the temperature go up for half a day.
Xu Xinduo felt a little cold after entering the venue. She had to change into her clothes before putting on makeup, so she was destined to be cold for a while.
After coming in, the stylist helped Xu Xinduo find clothes. She lifted them up one by one and compared them in front of Xu Xinduo. She found that Xu Xinduo's skin color and appearance were not picky about clothes at all, so it was quite easy to choose. Although it was a sudden addition, the styling was not difficult to arrange.
After matching the clothes and trying them on, Xu Xinduo finished. The stylist looked at Xu Xinduo for a long time, snapped his fingers and said, "OK."
Then he turned around and asked Brother Zhang: "Can I cut your hair?"
Brother Zhang immediately asked, "How much does it take? She has work arrangements later."
The stylist measured Xu Xinduo's neck and said, "It's roughly this length."
"Can I wear a wig?"
"Okay... but it takes time to prepare. You made this decision yesterday, so..."
Xu Xinduo said at this time: "You can cut it. I can get another job if I have one. Can you leave your hair for me?"
The stylist responded very quickly, as if this request was not the first of its kind: "Sure."
Xu Xinduo's hair is waist-length. Because the school does not allow perming or dyeing, she has always kept her hair long and straight.
Her hair is relatively thick and a little hard, and it is naturally straight, which makes her look very elegant when she lets it down.
Now that they have to cut their hair short, Zhang Ge feels bad about it, but Xu Xinduo doesn't care at all. She just seldom went to the barber shop before.
Xu Xinduo sat on a chair and watched her hair being cut by a pair of scissors. The stylist helped her tie it together with a rubber band.
Then comes the refinement.
The stylist gave Xu Xinduo a hairstyle with neat short hair that reached her neck, and a very large red bow hairpin on the top of her head. If you don't look carefully at this hairpin, you might think it's a beret, it feels so furry.
After finishing her makeup, Xu Xinduo did not put on her high heels immediately, but waited aside with her high heels in her hand. When she looked in the mirror, she felt very strange.
Her face was red, like sunburn makeup, but it had been upgraded.
She originally had a high-end face, and after putting on this kind of makeup, she felt that she had departed from the category of ordinary humans. It's a bit like a heartless robot, or a monster, anyway, it doesn't look like a human being.
Xu Xinduo whispered to Brother Zhang: "Is my look a little weird?"
This look would scare people if they walked on the street, right?
"Well, it's not normal. Your image is very high-end."
Xu Xinduo waited obediently, and then they would shoot together.
At this time, other models also arrived. One of them took the initiative to greet Xu Xinduo after seeing her, and asked, "Who are you?"
Obviously he didn't know Xu Xinduo.
Xu Xinduo politely introduced herself: "My name is Xu Xinduo, from Star Entertainment."
The model seemed surprised, then smiled and said, "My name is Evalyn, Shang Kong, I didn't know Xingyu even had models before."
"Well, the model is a sub-studio under Star Entertainment."
"Oh - I see." Evalyn replied with a long tone, and then left.
As Evalyn walked to the side to get her hair done, she chatted with the stylist: "Why is there suddenly another model? I remember there were four of them before."
"The original plan was to have five people, but we couldn't find the right ones, so we decided on four. She was the one we confirmed last night."
"What a coincidence... is he a newcomer?"
"Yeah, I heard it was a hot topic on Weibo once."
Evalyn took out her phone to check, then rolled her eyes. What kind of popular Weibo post is this? It's embarrassing enough. It's not even as good as an internet celebrity.
She was very excited at first, thinking that she had the opportunity to be on the cover, which put her a big step ahead of many people in the industry and would improve her status. As a result, a newcomer came in unexpectedly. She had only been a model for a short time, and the photos she had taken before were so tasteless that it lowered the grade immediately.
She was so annoyed that she took out her phone and kept complaining, and even secretly took a photo of Xu Xinduo. In this photo, Xu Xinduo is wearing Zhang Ge's coat. Because she is afraid of the cold, she huddles in her clothes and looks languid.
Group member A: What the hell?
Group member B: I searched everywhere and found her only work is "Boyfriend is not as good as Girlfriend".
Group member C: My boyfriend is not as good as my best friend, hahaha!
Group member D: Only 175CM tall? Evalyn is already 181cm tall, right? Don't we have to accommodate the newcomer when taking photos?
Group member B: A print model who has never walked in a fashion show. No international fashion shows want her with this height.
Group member E: What if I can arrange to go again? I don’t know if he is a kept man or a rich second generation. The watch is really expensive!
Evalyn: I hope she won’t delay the progress. I have other plans later.
Group member A: Wow! Is it Mr. He?
Evalyn: Just a meal.
At this time, Lu Jinyou came. He was still chatting and laughing with his assistant when he walked in. He paused when he saw Xu Xinduo, and then apologized with a smile: "Sorry, I didn't notice that there was someone sitting here before, and I was startled. Your hairpin is so cute!"
"Oh, it's okay." Xu Xinduo replied.
Lu Jinyou took a cup of milk tea from his assistant and handed it to Xu Xinduo, saying, "I'm sorry, because I changed everyone's shooting time by myself. This is to make up for it."
Lu Jinyou is already the most popular person among the crew members in this shoot.
He debuted as a child star, has no stains on his face, and his acting skills are also remarkable. Currently studying at the Beijing Academy of Drama, he is two years older than Xu Xinduo.
Even so, Lu Jinyou was not arrogant and was very polite even to the newcomer Xu Xinduo.
After Xu Xinduo took it, he felt the cold wall of the cup and heard the sound of ice cubes shaking. His expression was unnatural for a moment, but he quickly took it and said, "Thank you. Actually, I'm not busy. Any time is fine."
Lu Jinyou noticed Xu Xinduo's expression and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Can't I drink it cold?"
As he said that, he took the cup in Xu Xinduo's hand back and asked his assistant to hold up the other milk teas. He held the cups one by one to test the temperature and said, "I asked them to buy a few cups of room temperature. I'll give you the change."
Xu Xinduo was finally a little flattered at this time, because it was a bit inconvenient to be barefoot at this time, so she quickly put on her shoes and stood up with Lu Jinyou, which was more respectful.
In Xu Xinduo's view, Lu Jinyou is a senior.
Lu Jinyou handed Xu Xinduo a cup of room temperature drink. Seeing Xu Xinduo so reserved, he smiled again: "No need to stand up, you can rest first. It will take me some time to put on makeup. I'll go over first. Excuse me, see you later."
"Yeah, okay, see you later."
Lu Jinyou continued to walk inside and greeted the staff when he saw them. Even Brother Zhang was given a drink.
Evalyn is a professional model and strictly controls her diet, so he gave Evalyn a glass of lemonade.
Xu Xinduo continued to sit in the corner and took out her cell phone to send a message to Lou Xu: Your husband is a super sweet guy, I met him in person.
Lou Xu: Is he handsome in real life?
Xu Xinduo: More handsome than on TV, without makeup.
Lou Xu: Oh my God, I’m getting excited too. Duoduo, don’t take secret photos. This is a big taboo. Don’t make this mistake. But...please look at him a few more times for me!
Xu Xinduo: Okay!
Lou Xu: I will buy as many magazines as possible when they come out!
At this time, the editor-in-chief also came. After coming in, Xu Xinduo immediately stood up and greeted him.
The editor-in-chief is a woman in her forties who is very well maintained. Her age is reflected in her eyes and expression. Judging from her appearance alone, people would believe that she is not even thirty years old.
When the editor saw Xu Xinduo, a proper smile appeared on his face, calm and elegant. After seeing Xu Xinduo, she looked at her, then took Xu Xinduo's hand and walked to the stylist and said, "Her makeup is a bit weird, change it again."
Their theme this issue is Chinese Red.
Xu Xinduo has a red hairpin on her head and her skirt is also mainly red.
The others were also dressed in red.
In fact, the stylist saw that Xu Xinduo was a newcomer, and this kind of makeup was meant to set off the other people. Now that the editor-in-chief suggested changing it, the stylist immediately nodded.
The editor-in-chief looked at Xu Xinduo for a while and said, "Eye makeup is the key. Her eyes are the most beautiful. You need to bring out her characteristics. I believe you can interpret it very well."
The editor-in-chief patted the stylist on the shoulder and then went to meet Lu Jinyou. He seemed to be very familiar with Lu Jinyou and the two of them got along very well.
