Auston stared at Lin Dan for a while, then said firmly, "You've grown taller again."
"Yes, I have grown four centimeters taller, and now I am 182 centimeters." Lin Dan nodded and said that she has been taking drugs to promote the secretion of growth hormone for a while, but even so, standing in front of Auston, she is still more than He was more than half his head shorter.
"Well, this is the standard height of a model." Auston glanced at her and said again: "The waistline has also shrunk by two inches, the hip and bust have not changed, and the vest line has been trained, which is very good."
Lin Dan expressed her sincere admiration for Auston's ability to measure measurements with naked eyes, but she just smiled lightly and didn't say anything.
Auston didn't need her to answer, he picked up the remote control and started changing the video, and said slowly: "In two weeks, the a.c show will be held in Milan, let me see your training results."
Lin Dan saw that he was looking around in various videos and had no clue at all. He couldn't help but took the remote control and opened one of them accurately, "I think this is what you are looking for." Before she finished speaking, the TV set There was a soft background music, and an oriental face appeared on the screen. The facial features were five or six similar to Lin Dan, both with phoenix eyes, a high nose bridge, and an oval face, but the tail of her eyes was not like Lin Dan's. Upturned, but slightly drooping, it looks very innocent and innocent. His height is also a few centimeters shorter than Lin Dan. He is walking the most popular scissors step. His hands sway back and forth, like a flower stretching in the wind. charming.
Among the many videos, this is the one that O'Meara asked Lin Dan to imitate the most. They are all oriental and suitable for this style.
Lin Dan pointed to the person on the TV and asked, "You're not training me during this time, but you want me to be a substitute for Zhong Yuxiu, right?"
"So what?" Auston was as arrogant as ever.
"Then I'm sorry, but I won't accept this job. What I want to do is myself, not someone's shadow." Lin Dan threw away the remote control.
"As long as you're willing to stay, I'll give you two hundred thousand." Auston looked down at her.
"Even if you give me 2 million or 20 million, I won't stay. I'm Lin Dan, I'm me, do you understand?" Lin Dan picked up his backpack and strode away. Auston has touched her inverse scale. She is rarely angry, but now she can't contain the anger in her heart.
"Do you think you are special?" Auston turned to stare at her back, and said with a half-smiling smile: "How far can you go without my support? You debuted at the age of fourteen, and you should be better than me. It is clearer how ruthless this circle is. The supermodel who fell from the runway, even if it has been consecrated, will never have a chance to become popular again. Eve, Hazel, Kate, where are they now? Ellie is just saying goodbye I went to the runway to study for a year, and when I came back, I couldn't find any job opportunities. They have been promoted to the ranks of supermodels, and you are not even a supermodel until you are exhausted. How dare you resist me? You should Understand, if you obey me, I will take you to the altar."
"Like Zhong Yuxiu? But unfortunately, she left you in the end. She is your muse, right? Without her, you also lost your creative inspiration, so you urgently need to find a replacement now." Lin Dan She didn't intend to break Auston's predicament, but she couldn't help: "Before threatening me, you should think about how to protect yourself. I don't need your help to get to the altar, then Whether you're still in fashion or not is a question."
Auston laughed angrily, and said sarcastically, "I'm just giving you a conscience suggestion, not a threat. But since you don't agree, then forget it. I'll wait to see you step onto the altar."
"If you don't use despicable means to suppress me, I don't think that day will be too far away." Lin Dan deliberately used aggressive tactics.
The proud and conceited Auston really fell into her trap and sneered: "I don't want to do that. I admire your ambition, but I have to tell you the truth, your steps are terrible!" He called out Lin The video during training is light, and the language is sarcastic.
Lin Dan turned around and left, not even bothering to talk to him. This person has been poisoned by Zhong Yuxiu, thinking that everything about Zhong Yuxiu is good, and others who are different from her are inferior products. No wonder Zhong Yuxiu goes dormant when he becomes another designer's exclusive model.
But what does this have to do with Lin Dan? She has no obligation to take responsibility for an unrelated person. Perhaps in the eyes of others, getting on Auston is a shortcut to the sky, but she will never be anyone's shadow, and she will never become a dispensable substitute or spare tire. This is her bottom line. !
Auston walked to the window and looked down. Lin Dan's figure had already crossed the zebra crossing and disappeared at the corner of the street. She didn't turn around once, and she didn't even pause for a moment. She really disdains such an opportunity. Auston's frosty face finally slowly twisted, showing an expression similar to annoyance.
…
After returning home, Lin Dan told Bolsa what happened today, but what he got was a scream: "My God, you rejected Auston? If I'm not mistaken, he wants to train you. Become the second Zhong Yuxiu, right?"
"It's a more obedient and easier to control alternative." Lin Dan corrected.
"So what? Zhong Yuxiu is now the sixth-highest-paid supermodel, and the only Asian model on the Fortune List. All of this is thanks to Alston. Although I don't know why she left Alston, But isn't this a great opportunity for you? What about the alternative? The money and fame you've made are real, and you're about to have it all darling! Go back to me and confess to Allston , and then agree to his request." Bolsa kept slapping Lin Dan on the shoulder, more anxious than Zheng Zhuer.
Lin Dan shook his head firmly: "I won't go back to be Zhong Yuxiu's replacement. I'm not someone's shadow. Don't say these words in the future. I don't like to work with people with different ideas."
Bolsa, who had just earned a little rake recently, really didn't dare to speak.
"What contract did I sign with the "Tianqiao Hegemony" program group?" Lin Dan continued to ask.
"It's one sign for one installment. Recently, they wanted to sign with you for a long time, but I didn't agree." Bolsa replied immediately, very good.
"Then I'll take a leave of absence with the show team to interview in Milan after participating in the next issue. I want to go to a serious show." Lin Dan has already made a career plan for himself, and did not pin his hopes on Auston. She took out a thick stack of materials, all of which were profiles of major brands that were about to participate in the Milan fashion show. Although Auston has a very bad personality, he is worthy of being the godfather of fashion. He has the latest information in the fashion circle in his hands, which undoubtedly brings great convenience to Lin Dan. The information in her hands is what O'Meara found for her. , others can't get it if they want to.
She took out a notebook and listed the interview times and locations of all the shows in order.
Bolsa leaned over to take a look and said cautiously: "Dear, if you agree to Auston's invitation, you can go to whichever of these big shows you want. Do you know? Last year, Zhong Yuxiu went to more than 60 shows. Show, almost contracted the Milan Fashion Week, you can also be as beautiful as her."
Lin Dan raised his head and looked at Bolsa quietly.
Bolsa's heart shuddered by her icy gaze, and he hurriedly said, "I'm just talking about it casually. Zhong Yuxiu is not as beautiful as you, not as beautiful as you, not as perfect in proportions as you, not as unique in temperament as you, anywhere and everywhere. Can't compare to you, she can dominate the show, you will only be better than her. Dear, you can be a supermodel without Auston, I'm optimistic about you!"
Lin Dan then lowered his head and continued to make the form.
A week later, Lin Dan finished recording the fifth episode of "Tianqiao Hegemony". With her help, the black female designer achieved good results in second place. Riel was a little uncomfortable after losing Lin Dan and failed to enter the top three. , but the results are not too bad. The male judge of the day changed to another person. Cindy said that due to the upcoming launch of the a·c new product, Auston resigned from the program team.
Everyone felt sorry for Auston's departure, but Lin Dan's heart was calm.
Immediately after the job, she flew to Milan with Bolsa and started interviewing for various brands. Of course, she did not adopt the strategy of casting a wide net and fishing more, but chose according to her own temperament and brand style. She would go only if it suits her, and pass it directly if it is not suitable for her. Three days later, she and Bolsa returned to the hotel exhausted and pulled out a form to check tomorrow's itinerary.
"I still haven't received any notification today?" Bolsa asked expectantly.
Lin Dan took out his phone and looked at it, then shook his head and said, "No, but don't be discouraged, there is always hope for more interviews."
"Aren't you tired? You've run sixteen places in one day, you're a superman!" Bolsa couldn't help but be astonished at Lin Dan's tenacity. When this woman went out, she brought three bottles of water and three sandwiches, and went to the studios of major brands for interviews one by one in order from far to near. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were settled on the way, without wasting a second. If she could have worked so hard back then, she would have become a supermodel already!
"This is also called tired?" Lin Dan smiled nonchalantly. For some reason, she seemed to be able to endure hardship.
"Isn't that tiring? I used to take my models to interviews in four places at most." As soon as Bolsa finished speaking, a call came in, and Lin Dan answered it immediately, his expression always calm.
After hanging up the phone, she said slowly: "I was accepted by j&k, the main show."
"What did you say?" Bolsa scratched his ears, almost suspecting that he was hallucinating. That is j&k, a high-end luxury brand that specializes in unisex style. The models invited are all supermodels, and the main show is the most popular face in the fashion circle back then, and it will never lower its style. Why did it invite Lin Dan, an outdated model, to be the main show? Could it be that the designer is out of breath
Lin Dan is also considering this issue. She was surprised to be selected for J&K, let alone the main show? There's definitely someone out there doing shit. Lin Dan thought of Auston almost immediately, and then realized what he was doing. Did he think she would be intimidated by this luxury brand? Did he think she couldn't bear the pressure to make a fool of herself on the show? Even if she doesn't make a fool of herself, she just performs mediocrely, her little-known model being elected as the main show of j&k will arouse suspicion and ridicule from fashion celebrities, and will become a thorn in the eyes of other supermodels, unless she can be in the show. The previous blockbuster.
Instead of suppressing her, Auston adopted a more sophisticated approach.
Thinking of this, Lin Dan smiled instead of anger. She won't be stupid enough to turn down the job, the harder it is, the more she has to cut a smooth path for herself. Auston wanted to kill her, so she could just use him as a stepping stone.
