Lin Dan has been busy since Baird posted three catwalk videos online. She receives countless work calls every day, some for magazine cover invitations, some for advertising shoots, and some for catwalks. She thought she was just a model, but only recently discovered that she seemed to be a traffic star.
Bolsa was going crazy with joy. Every day, he held an electronic calculator and pressed left and right, and then shouted excitedly: "Lin, we can buy a top-end apartment in New York, Lin, we have made a fortune. Ha ha ha ha!"
Lin Dan's savings are increasing day by day, but she just treats it as a string of numbers. When she had no money, she desperately wanted to make money, but when she had money, she became calm, and even transferred several large sums of money to charities. She thought: The former self should not be short of money, otherwise, this habit will not be formed.
This day, after two shows, she received a call from the editor-in-chief of Beauty Magazine while she was backstage. The other party's tone sounded a little excited, and she opened her mouth and said, "Lin, do me a favor? Here comes the executive editor a lesson."
Thinking of the time when he was put on pigeons by Beauty Magazine, Lin Dan asked with interest, "What's wrong?"
"That's right," the female editor-in-chief said in a low voice, "I didn't tell you last time that the new executive editor disagreed with my suggestion of using you as the cover model, and found another more famous model? Guess what? Who is that person?"
Lin Dan raised her eyebrows and said, "Could it be Zhong Yuxiu?" Except for Zhong Yuxiu and Kong Bangchen, she didn't seem to have offended anyone in the fashion circle, and it was not worth the female editor-in-chief to call her to tell her the inside story.
"You guessed it right, it's her. The executive editor overturned my suggestion. When everyone voted at the meeting except me, everyone voted for Zhong Yuxiu. But who would have thought that in just half a month, your popularity You have completely surpassed Zhong Yuxiu, and even Baird loves you so much. God, I watched the video he posted on ins, when you walked behind Zhong Yuxiu, she immediately became a transparent person, all the All eyes are on you, you are the worthy main show. You know, you completely replaced her position, although your income is far from her, but one day you can surpass her. This year's supermodel ranking The selection is about to start again, the judges are not blind, I think you will definitely be on the list."
Lin Dan said calmly, "Then what?"
The female editor-in-chief said proudly: "The executive editor abandoned you and chose Zhong Yuxiu. Now your popularity has completely reversed. The editor-in-chief is very suspicious of his business ability, so I took over part of his work. Dear, Come and help me shoot the cover of this issue, we'll replace Zhong Yuxiu."
"You asked me to take Zhong Yuxiu's job?" Lin Dan repeated.
"Yes, is there a problem?" the editor-in-chief asked uncertainly.
"No problem, I'm happy to." Lin Dan chuckled lightly.
"Okay, we're shooting the cover in Milan. I've already brought the team here. We'll see you at nine tomorrow morning." The editor-in-chief was about to hang up when she heard Lin Dan say, "Wait a minute."
"What else is there to do, dear." The editor-in-chief was very patient.
Lin Dan opened Zhong Yuxiu's personal homepage, looked at her ins that she was about to become the cover model of Beauty Magazine a while ago, and chuckled: "Can you post the news of me becoming the cover model on your magazine's ins? I need Advertise it."
"Of course I can, I'll do it right away!" Lin Dan was rubbing against Baird's enthusiasm now, so there was no reason for the female editor-in-chief not to agree. She quickly announced the news, and Lin Dan reposted it, and then sent a private message to Zhong Yuxiu, with just two simple words—acceptance.
Lin Dan never takes the initiative to cause trouble, but he is not afraid of trouble.
…
The next day, Lin Dan, who walked into the studio, looked at the photographer with a surprised expression, while the other party was burying his head in adjusting the camera, looking very professional.
"Mr. Dodge, why are you here?" she asked two steps forward.
"In the early days, my works were all shot by myself. Believe me, my technique is very good." Auston said without looking up.
The female editor-in-chief quickly explained: "Lin, Mr. Dodge is a very famous photographer in the industry, but his designer's reputation is really big, so most people don't notice this. Hearing that you are our model, he took the initiative. Found us and asked for the position of photographer. Lin, I am so thankful for you this time, you are my lucky goddess!"
"No, you should thank Mr. Dodge, so do I." Lin Dan stretched out his hand with a sincere tone. She knows all too well how important a good photographer is to a model.
Auston immediately put down the camera, held her hand tightly, and released it after a ten-second interval.
The female editor-in-chief asked the assistant to bring over all the costumes and jewelry needed for the shooting, and let Lin Dan and Auston take a look. Lin Dan did not express any opinion, but Auston frowned and said: "No, these things are not worthy of Lin Dan at all, you failed to capture her charm. My camera only takes pictures of the most beautiful people or things. Never shoot leftovers.”
These things are already the top sponsorship that the female editor can find, and if it is better, she is really powerless. Auston didn't negotiate with her too much, and directly called the assistant and asked him to bring his personal possessions over. In less than 40 minutes, a truck pulled up from outside the studio, and a group of security guards with live ammunition escorted two safes and several huge gift boxes into the dressing room.
"What is this?" The safe that was opened as soon as the editor-in-chief finished speaking was dazzling. It was full of dazzling jewelry, including ruby necklaces, sapphire rings, emerald brooches, diamond earrings, and so on. Two gift boxes were in full bloom. All of them are haute couture dresses, all worth more than $100,000.
Without a doubt, this is the most expensive shoot in Beauty Magazine's history, and none of these things combined are enough to buy an entire block!
All the staff present were staring at these jewelry and clothing with burning eyes, only to feel dry mouth and heart beating wildly, but Lin Dan's expression was calm and unmoved. I don't know why, no amount of wealth is just a string of numbers in her eyes.
Auston took a deep look at her and bowed: "Lin, please allow me to choose clothes and jewelry for you. I said that my camera only shoots the most beautiful people and things in the world."
Such a humble and polite Auston really made Lin Dan a little uncomfortable. She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, and said bluntly, "Mr. Dodge, you compliment me too much, are you asking me for something?"
"We'll talk about that later." Auston lowered his eyelids uncomfortably.
In this way, Lin Dan was relieved, walked to the full-length mirror and said, "Please, Mr. Dodge, I hope we can cooperate happily this time."
"Yes, I will let you understand how pleasant it is to work with me." These words seemed to touch Auston's heart, making his dark green eyes instantly clear.
He was very happy, Lin Dan thought silently.
Auston hung a set of dresses on the shelf, and then asked Lin Dan to try them on, leaving those that fit and putting them aside if they weren't. His emerald green eyes stared at Lin Dan, even if she entered the curtain, she did not move away for even a second. He seemed to like watching Lin Dan very much, and the corners of his mouth, which were always pursed into a straight line, turned up at some point. He would also personally take out the needle and thread to help Lin Dan correct the inappropriate places.
After trying on the makeup, he took out the jewelry boxes one by one, placed them neatly on the turntable, and tried them on for Lin Dan himself. He leaned over and approached to see the effect of the jewelry on Lin Dan's skin, with complete admiration and pleasure in his eyes. He was like a child who received a Barbie doll as a gift for the first time. He wanted to put the best jewelry and the most beautiful clothes in the world on Lin Dan. He even disassembled a sapphire necklace into pieces, just for the sake of Put them on Lin Dan's jet-black hair.
"You are so beautiful, dear, you are so beautiful!" During the fitting process, he praised more than once, his emerald green eyes full of bright and happy light. Since Zhong Yuxiu left, this is the first time he has felt what it means to be full of inspiration and burst of creativity. From time to time he would stop and draw sketches of clothing in his notebook. Clearly, he's the kind of multitasking genius.
Lin Dan has always admired hard-working people and respected the fruits of their labor, so even though Auston always asked her to try on dresses and jewelry repeatedly, she did not show any signs of fatigue. She is very cooperative, spinning, sitting, lying down, posing in various shapes, and even agreeing to Auston's proposal to cut bangs for her.
They tossed for hours, but they haven't entered the official shooting stage. However, no one urged them, because everyone gradually realized that Lin Dan, who had been carefully dressed up by Auston, actually exuded amazing charm, and she was already beautiful enough!
"Perfect! That's it! Those figures that appeared in my dreams are you!" Auston was stunned when he saw Lin Dan who had finished fitting.
"Can we shoot?" Lin Dan asked in a low voice.
"Ah, yes!" Auston woke up like a dream, and quickly picked up the camera, but he thought of something. He dipped a little lipstick on his little finger and smeared it on Lin Dan's lower lip. Feeling the warmth and softness of his fingertips, he stiffened for a moment, his emerald green pupils unknowingly stained with a hint of ink.
However, Lin Dan's black and white eyes were looking at her, and there was no trace of impurities in it, only the seriousness and solemnity in his work, which made him wake up quickly.
"Let's start shooting." He retracted his fingertips, his voice hoarse.
Lin Dan wore a sheer tulle close-fitting open-back fishtail long dress, and walked slowly to an arched door in the interior shed. All the lights were dimmed, but a soft light was lit behind her. The white light penetrated the thin gauze skirt and outlined her perfect body curve. Countless diamonds were arranged on the gauze. Like stars, and her loose black hair is also looming with star dust. It was dark all around, but she alone gathered all the colors and light.
Auston stared at her like this for a long time, then pressed the shutter. This is a star that will shine, and his muse.
