Chen Minhao looked at the celebrities downstairs who were taking pictures of the same pose over and over again, turned his head and complained:
"The bottom line I can accept is to pretend that I can't see the photographer when being photographed on the street. I only took two or three poses in a morning, and I still insist that I was secretly photographed. At this level, I really can't do it."
Joya smiled and said: "So you can go to the show to walk, but they can only look concave on the street."
Joya picked up the water glass on the table, took a sip of water and continued: "The lens is very strict. Any unnaturalness under the lens will be magnified. If you can only take two or three looks in the morning, I can only say His talent for controlling his expression and body is limited."
Chen Minhao didn't expect that his casual remarks would cause Joya to be so deeply moved.
But he felt that what Joya said was quite reasonable.
Whether it is acting, dancing, catwalking or taking photos, the quality of your final performance essentially depends on your ability to control your expression and body.
After thinking about this, Chen Minhao sat back on the sofa and said with a smile: "If these people put their time and energy into pleasing fans and looking concave in filming, maybe their acting skills will improve by leaps and bounds."
Joya flipped up her red hair and asked with a smile: "Do you think these celebrities come all the way to Paris and hire stylists and photographers at high prices just to provide benefits to their fans?"
Chen Minhao thought for a while and said, "It should be to maintain his exposure."
Kang Hui, who was on the side, heard the conversation between the two and said to Chen Minhao with a smile:
"Maintaining exposure is a means, but not an end. Just like you went to the Valentino show this afternoon, the catwalk is not your goal. Your goal is to increase your qualifications and expand your international channels."
Kang Hui lit a cigarette and said: "These artists are willing to spend a day doing concave shapes for the cooperation of big brands. If a star's street photos show a strong ability to bring goods, then the star will naturally be valued by the brand, and maybe he will take more photos A few sets of clothing from this brand can make you a close friend of the brand.”
Chen Minhao smiled and said, "Then they are really working hard."
Kang Hui continued: "You made your debut with the show "Artists in Practice" and gained a lot of attention as soon as you debuted. In the third year after your debut, you were invited by Hua Nu Tianlun to walk in the Paris Fashion Week. Your journey has been too smooth. It's so smooth, but you don't understand how much effort it takes to be a close friend of a brand at the bottom of the entertainment industry."
Chen Minhao didn't know how to respond to Kang's words. After all, it was not his fault that he was excellent.
Chen Minhao stretched and sat back on the sofa.
He wore headphones and used his iPad to watch videos of models’ catwalk shows from previous Paris Fashion Weeks.
There are some videos that Chen Minhao has watched several times.
But now he was inspired by Joya's words and used a new perspective-model catwalk is about controlling one's expression and body. Watching these videos, he felt that he had gained something new.
At 12 noon on March 26, there are still 4 hours before Chen Minhao goes to the Valentino show.
Chen Minhao took a bite of bread and was arranged by Joya to put on makeup.
Although there must be makeup artists in the waiting area of the show, such makeup artists are like workers on the makeup assembly line and are definitely not as useful as a separate private makeup artist.
Makeup is one of the four major evil arts in Asia.
A good makeup artist can give a person a makeover.
But an excellent makeup artist can detect the subtle differences in the face and follow the trend. It is not to change the star's appearance, but to explore the star's strengths and characteristics.
They can use subtle changes in highlight position or eyebrow shaping techniques to maximize the potential of each face, instead of creating a cookie-cutter "Internet celebrity face" or "advanced face."
Today's makeup artist He Yu was specially found by Joya for Chen Minhao.
Before setting off, Joya told Chen Minhao that He Yu was an excellent makeup artist.
Powder room.
Joya said to a man wearing a peaked cap:
"Teacher He, Chen Minhao had a haircut yesterday, and the clothes he wears for this show are mature. I need you to make his face look tougher."
Chen Minhao's jacket is a black corduroy jacket with a tiger pattern sweatshirt underneath.
The lower body is in black jeans and white casual shoes.
The whole person looks full of energy and extraordinary spirit.
He Yu nodded, walked straight to Chen Minhao, and said, "Then let's start now."
Although He Yu started, he did not brush his face with a makeup brush as soon as he came up like other makeup artists.
He Yu asked Chen Minhao to stand up. He held his chin and looked carefully at Chen Minhao's face.
He Yu frowned. He didn't look like he was putting makeup on someone, but like he was trying to solve some mathematical problem.
After looking at it for more than ten minutes, he finally rolled up his sleeves, opened the makeup case he carried with him, and said, "Sit down, we will start putting on makeup now, please close your eyes."
Chen Minhao, who was sitting in front of the makeup mirror, nodded and closed his eyes.
Chen Minhao originally thought that for such a grand occasion, He Yu's makeup would be a slow effort.
He is ready for a long game.
Unexpectedly, he soon heard He Yu's voice: "Okay, you can open your eyes now."
Chen Minhao looked up at the clock hanging on the wall. Only fifteen minutes had passed.
But when Chen Minhao looked in the makeup mirror, he saw a tough and handsome boy with a short hair looking at him.
Of course Chen Minhao knew that the person in the mirror was himself, but he just felt that he looked a little strange in the mirror.
Chen Minhao has always been a simple and pure boy in the past, exuding a youthful and sunny image.
The makeup He Yu applied looked very simple, and it looked like he had no makeup on. However, some simple changes made Chen Minhao look completely different.
Paired with the prickly short hair and the current look, the entire facial lines look tougher.
Joya nodded with satisfaction and said, "I feel like I have grown up suddenly. I can't wait to see your fans' comments now."
Kang smiled back and said: "I believe that after the photos of your catwalk show are released, the script roles for you will be much richer, and you will no longer be limited to some little puppy roles."
After Joya checked again and there was no problem, Chen Minhao went to the backstage of the show to make final preparations.
After arriving at the show, the show director held a small speaker and explained the style, structure and process of the stage.
A rehearsal was also arranged in the middle.
As one of the few Asian faces, Chen Minhao was looked at by many eyes, accompanied by some whispers.
