Chapter Eighty-Three: Let the Luggage Fly
After sleeping soundly for four or five hours and having a full meal, Xiao Yao's spirit was much better, and he didn't have any hangover, so he chatted with Yin Xi beside him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yin Xi is now over 30 years old, and although her modeling career has not yet begun to decline, at this stage of her, it is inevitable that she will begin to consider the issue of transformation.
Model transformation, there are only a few choices. One moved from the front of the stage to the background and continued to develop in the fashion circle. With a long period of immersion in the fashion circle and the cooperation of designers to contact and learn, some models will transform into designers, and if possible, they can also rely on their own fashion vision and network resources in the fashion circle to establish their own fashion brands and be their own bosses.
Another option is to transform into an actor, after all, an actor can live much longer than a model. In terms of fame, well-known models themselves are famous and well-known, and their appearance conditions are very good, and the starting point of their acting career is much higher than that of ordinary rookie actors. Even if they start from the role of a vase, their vase role is also very weighty. From a technical point of view, models take pictures and catwalks also have to face the camera, and they also have performance experience, although it is not exactly the same thing as acting, but at least there will be no situation where they are overwhelmed by the camera and lose their instincts. So being an actor is also a good choice for model transformation.
Yin Xi's plan is that he doesn't want to let go of either of these aspects. She plans to open her own studio, try to build her own fashion brand, and also start to try to develop into the entertainment industry. Although she is a world-class model, if she wants to transform into an actor, it is obvious that there will be more opportunities in the domestic entertainment industry, and when it comes to domestic fashion resources, it is also an international metropolis, and Shencheng, an economic metropolis located on the southeast coast, is more advantageous than the inland capital Yanjing, so Yin Xi decided to open his studio in Shencheng.
Of course, Yin Xi's choice to open his studio in Shencheng is partly because of Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao has been admitted to the Shencheng Drama Academy, and he will study and live in the Shencheng Drama Academy for four years, which means that in the next four years, Xiao Yao will spend much more time in Shencheng than Yanjing. Even if he can't pull Xiao Yao into his studio, Yin Xi puts his studio in the same city as Xiao Yao's university, and it is much easier to find him when Xiao Yao is needed for something in his studio.
After Xiao Yao woke up, Yin Xi told him in detail about his plans to open a studio in Shencheng, and at the same time sent an invitation to Xiao Yao, giving him three positions of partner, art director and full-time photographer at once.
Yin Xi wants to open a studio in China and Shencheng, and Xiao Yao is of course in favor. As for Yin Xi's attention to him, Xiao Yao was also very grateful in his heart, but when it came to the three positions proposed by Yin Xi, Xiao Yao was a little insensitive to thanks. He already opened a studio at home, and it has developed well, and more and more artists have signed contracts, but he has little management of the affairs of his own studio, where does he still have the energy to partner with others to open a studio again? As for the art director and the full-time photographer, the same is true, he is only a contracted artist in his own studio, so how can he go to another studio to take a temporary position?
So Xiao Yao didn't accept any of these three positions, but just promised Yin Xi that if there were any interesting projects in her studio in the future, she would definitely actively participate. Where he needs to help, he will definitely do his best to help within the scope of his ability.
Yin Xi herself also knew that it was not so easy to tie Xiao Yao to her studio, so Xiao Yao's refusal was not too surprising to her, as long as Xiao Yao was willing to agree to be willing to participate in her studio's projects and the studio would help when needed, Yin Xi was already satisfied.
The two chatted about the studio all the way, and the time passed unconsciously. A few hours later, the plane landed at London's Heathrow Airport, and the two were about to go their separate ways.
Xiao Yao's two connecting flights did not belong to the same airline, so after getting off the plane in London, Xiao Yao needed to pick up his luggage and check in again. Xiao Yao and Yin Xi got off the plane together, went to pick up the checked luggage together, and accompanied Yin Xi all the time, sent her to the passenger exit, and watched her meet with Zhang Lan, the agent who came to pick her up, before waving goodbye to Yin Xi and pulling her luggage to check in.
The first-class position is the closest to the door of the plane, and Xiao Yao and Yin Xi, who are sitting in the first-class cabin, are naturally the first among the passengers to get off the plane, but because Xiao Yao sent Yin Xi a little more, when Xiao Yao pulled his luggage to the check-in counter for his next flight to check in his baggage, there was already a long queue in front of the counter.
Xiao Yao pulled his luggage and stood at the end of the line to line up, glanced sideways at the team in front of him, and immediately found two familiar figures.
"Hey, Katie!" Xiao Yao tilted his head and shouted, seeing a young woman and a little girl with three people in front of him turning around, Xiao Yao smiled and beckoned.
"Yang!" When the little girl saw Xiao Yao, she also screamed happily, and immediately broke free from her mother's hand, ran to Xiao Yao's side, took one of his hands and said, "You are also here?"
The young woman smiled helplessly, so she had to pull her luggage and move back three positions, and followed her daughter to Xiao Yao's side.
Xiao Yao originally just wanted to say hello, but he didn't expect the mother and daughter to come over directly. First smiled and lowered his head and touched the little girl's hair, then looked up and greeted the young woman: "Hello, Mrs..."
"Hello, Moriton, Sana Morton. The young woman smiled and stretched out her hand, "You're also on a transit flight to New York?"
"Yes, Mrs. Morton. Xiao Yao stretched out his hand and shook Sana Morton's hand, "I didn't expect that we would have the opportunity to continue to take the same flight after transferring." ”
"Great," said the little girl Katie happily, "Jan, shall we sit together?" ”
"Okay. Xiao Yao smiled and nodded, "As long as you don't mind the smell of alcohol on my body." ”
Hearing Xiao Yao's words, the little girl really approached Xiao Yao and sniffed, and then said with a smile: "It's okay, you don't smell of alcohol anymore." ”
Xiao Yao slept for a while, washed his face in the bathroom again, and after more than ten hours, his body basically stopped emitting the smell of alcohol, and even the smell of alcohol dripping on his clothes almost dissipated.
Since the little girl wanted to be with Xiao Yao, the young woman Sana Morton did not return to her original position in the team, and lined up with her daughter to Xiao Yao's side. When it was their turn, the three of them simply went to the check-in counter to check in their baggage and check-in, and since the second flight of the transfer was still economy class, the three of them were able to choose three seats next to each other in the same row.
There is only about two hours left for passengers to go through the transfer procedures between the two flights, and when the three of them have completed the formalities and entered the waiting hall after passing through customs and security, they will start boarding.
After boarding the plane, Xiao Yao still asked Sana Morton to sit down with Katie Morton first, and he helped put the luggage of the three people into the overhead luggage compartment before sitting down in the outermost aisle.
"Mom, look, what are they doing?" Since Xiao Yao was still placing her luggage, the little girl Katie suddenly pointed to the porthole next to Sana and shouted.
"Oh my God, that's how they carry their luggage?" Sana exclaimed, looking out in the direction of Katie's finger.
Xiao Yao, who sat down, also looked over curiously, and found that several porters in overalls on the ground were carrying the large luggage checked by the passengers. I saw that they couldn't say the word "move" at all when they carried their luggage, but picked up the luggage and threw it directly, some caught it better, some didn't catch it, and the suitcases were directly smashed to the ground or other suitcases. This scene made Xiao Yao suddenly think of the video of some courier companies throwing packages during violent sorting seen on the Internet in his previous life.
"Damn! Even if the courier throws the package, the airline can also throw it away like this?" Xiao Yao scolded in his heart, and immediately raised his hand and pressed the call button above the head of the seat.
Probably because it was still in the passenger boarding stage, it took a while for a flight attendant to come over. The red-haired white stewardess first reached out and pressed the call button above Xiao Yao's head, then bowed slightly and asked Xiao Yao, "Sir, is there anything I can help you?"
Xiao Yao immediately pointed to the portmen outside the porthole who were still "letting the luggage fly for a while" and said, "Is this how your company treats our luggage?"
The flight attendant leaned over and glanced out of the porthole in the direction Xiao Yao pointed, and said to Xiao Yao after getting up: "Sorry sir, the work of the ground staff is not our responsibility, but I will report this problem to the company." ”
"Reflect?" Xiao Yao said dissatisfiedly, "Even if their work is not your responsibility, can't you go down and stop them from doing it alone?" If the contents of our suitcase or the suitcase itself are broken, what's the use of you reporting to the company?"
"I'm sorry, it's not in our area of work. Is there anything else you can do?" the red-haired stewardess asked again, and was about to turn and leave.
"Wait, since you can't go, I'll go down myself to stop them from doing so. Xiao Yao unbuckled the seat belt he had just fastened and stood up.
"I'm sorry, sir, you can't get off the plane and go to the ground!" When the red-haired stewardess heard this, she immediately raised her hand to stop Xiao Yao and said, "This is not in accordance with the regulations." ”
"Then you're going?" Xiao Yao said as he looked at her.
"I can't go either. The red-haired stewardess continued to shake her head.
"There's always someone who can do something, right?" Xiao Yao said, pointing to the porthole.
"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about it. The red-haired stewardess pointed to Xiao Yao's seat and said, "Sir, please sit back in your seat." With that, the red-haired stewardess stopped saying anything to Xiao Yao and turned to leave.
"I'll go, what's the called this?" Xiao Yao, who was sitting back in his seat, became more and more unhappy the more he thought about it, so he pressed the call button above his head again.
After another period of waiting, another flight attendant came over. Xiao Yao expressed his dissatisfaction again, and also asked the stewardess to go down to stop the barbaric operation of the bellman or let herself go down. But this flight attendant's attitude and rhetoric are the same as the previous flight attendant, and she also looks powerless.
Because Xiao Yao's tone this time was more intense than the previous time, he spoke a little louder. It didn't take long for even the purser and a male crew member to be drawn in.
After hearing what had happened, the purser and the crew had the same attitude as the two flight attendants, just asking to sit back in their seats.
"They have their jobs, we have our jobs," the flight attendant wearing the purser's badge said to Xiao Yao, "please don't affect our work and the order on the plane." ”
"You're saying I'm making trouble?" Xiao Yao sat down and looked up at the few people standing in front of him.
"If you have any objections to anyone's work, you can complain to our company," the male crew member stepped forward, "but getting off the plane is a safety violation, and it can't be!"
Xiao Yao resisted the urge to let go of the people in front of him and get off the plane all the way, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and turned it to the shooting mode, handed it to Sana Morton by the window and said, "Sana, please help me take pictures of the process of carrying their luggage." ”
"Okay. Sana Morton took Xiao Yao's mobile phone and recorded the scene of "let the luggage fly" below.
"Sir...", the purser pointed to Xiao Yao's mobile phone.
"Your airline doesn't seem to prohibit passengers from using mobile phones on the plane, right?" Xiao Yao rolled his eyelids.
"This..."The crew members in front of them looked at each other, then shrugged their shoulders together and turned to leave.
"I hope nothing goes wrong with my guitar. Looking at the backs of several people leaving, Xiao Yao also sat down helplessly and said in his heart.
If he only brought a suitcase with a change of clothes and was not afraid of falling, Xiao Yao's reaction would not be so fierce. The key is that there is also a guitar case in his checked luggage that can't be put in the luggage compartment above the seat, and he has to check it, which contains the guitar he uses most easily, according to the practices of those people below, Xiao Yao really can't guarantee that his guitar can go to New York intact.
