Chapter 67: Goodbye (5000+ First Update)
The state of Naba is an internationally renowned design capital, home to two of the world's top five design schools, and produces the majority of talents in the fashion industry every year.
Almost every once in a while, there will be a corresponding exhibition, especially a design exhibition.
The Mantwe Design Competition is not unique in Naba. But even so, the triennial Mantwi event has attracted the attention of the fashion industry.
For no other reason, almost all the biggest names in the fashion industry have shown their faces in the Mantwig competition.
Stepping on the land of Naba, the salty sea breeze blows in your face and carries the scorching sun. It's a sun, sandy and enjoyable getaway.
From the airport to the hotel, by the time it was completely settled, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
The time difference at home and abroad caused Luo Jiao to feel a little uncomfortable. After eating something with the teachers, everyone also scattered back to the room to rest and rest, so that they could adjust their state and report to the stadium tomorrow.
As for the sunny beaches, they still have time to enjoy them. After all, unlike previous competitions, there will be a day off after each knockout round of the Mantway Tournament, which is a combination of work and rest.
Compared with Luo Jiao and others, who had just arrived in Naba, the players who stayed through the audition had been fighting for half a month, and finally won the 50 places left.
Among them, there are 25 places for jewelry designers and 25 places for fashion designers.
is also because of their hard work, Luo Jiao and the players who came over through escort are equivalent to the legendary airborne troops, and they are inevitably regarded as a thorn in the side. There is no doubt that from the very beginning, these fifty people stood against them and became strong competitors.
Dong Yiyi looked at herself in the mirror, I don't know if it was her illusion, after this time, she always felt like she was much older.
Mei Lin, who lives in the same dormitory, is a Californian girl, and like Dong Yiyi, she is also the winner who successfully survived the audition event. After living with Dong Yiyi for a few days, Mei Lin is obviously very used to Dong Yiyi's likes to look in the mirror, "Yiyi, those escorts will arrive tomorrow, do you think they will live with us?"
"I don't know. Dong Yiyi said lightly, not in much mood to chat with Mei Lin about gossip.
She came to participate in this competition this time, the only purpose is to defeat Luo Jiao, she wants to trample her under her feet, and she will send her to hell little by little!
Until now, Dong Yiyi can't forget her father's death, and in this life, she can't forget it!
Dong Yiyi's coldness did not discourage Mei Lin's interest in chatting about gossip, and immediately said to herself: "I think it's very possible, you see that there are still two beds in our bedroom." And there are half of the beds left in each room, which must have been prepared for them. ”
"Even if it is, if we get them out, this will only be our territory. Dong Yiyi said coldly.
After this period of competition, Dong Yiyi has grown a lot. And during this time, she studied with the teacher Qi Wenxu helped her find every day, and even the teacher praised her for growing up very fast.
Mei Lin listened to Dong Yiyi's confident words, and nodded approvingly, "You're right, why don't they need to be eliminated like us, this time we will definitely win." ”
Early the next morning, Luo Jiao and others gathered in the restaurant at nine o'clock, and after breakfast, the teachers took everyone to the venue of the Minterway Competition.
After handing in their assessment designs, everyone was told to go back and wait for news, and if there were no problems, they would move into the manor where they would live for the next month at 4 p.m.
Of course, when it says it's a month, it's the people who make it to the finals. If you are eliminated early, your time may only be three days or seven days, or half a month, etc.
The teachers still have something to do, and after Luo Jiao handed in the assessment design, she walked back to the hotel alone.
The hotel is deliberately located near the stadium, and it takes less than 15 minutes to walk. And when she came, Luo Jiao also saw a square, where there were flocks of white doves and wandering artists who were performing.
It can be said that it is a very lively scene.
Although it is a foreign country, Naba is a place with a rich cultural atmosphere and a particularly comfortable feeling. Along the way, Luo Jiao watched everyone's walking steps relaxed and comfortable.
Flocks of white doves were walking up and down the square, or flapping their wings and circling over the heads of the crowds. Of course, if you're unlucky, you might see an unknown object fall overhead.
The sound of beautiful music came to my ears, and the soft voice was like the murmur of a lover, which was different from the tune I had heard before, and more like a poem passed down by the mouth of a wandering poet.
The boy playing the accordion sang along the side, and from time to time he gave a shy but sweet smile to the girl in the crowd around him, causing the girl to blush.
Luo Jiao stood aside, listening to them singing moving love songs, their eyes met, and their love was slight. Having really experienced a handful of dog food, Luo Jiao really wanted to think about Bo Yanjiu at this moment.
took out her mobile phone, Luo Jiao glanced at the screen where there was no call, Luo Jiao missed a call from him when she fell asleep last night, who knew that she didn't wait for him to call herself today, and she didn't know what he was busy with.
When she heard the applause in her ears, Luo Jiao also raised her hand and applauded.
F national style itself is relatively open, and the boy who was singing a love song just now has already hugged the girl and kissed it. In the surrounding crowd, a group of people were coaxing, not only some young people, but even some elders who looked like they were in their forties, and they still seemed to be smiling at this time, and there was not the slightest dissatisfaction.
After witnessing a magic trick up close, Luo Jiao returned to the hotel.
At about three o'clock, Luo Jiao received a call from the teacher, asking her to pack her things, and someone came to the hotel to pick her up at half past three, and then she would stay in the Mantwi Manor together.
In the huge Mantwig Manor, this time it is obviously more interesting than the bustle five days ago. The fifty designers who had already lived in the manor also came out of their rooms one after another at this time, and looked at Luo Jiao and the others who were getting off the car from far or near on the lawn of the manor.
After Luo Jiao and others got off the bus, they were divided into two categories: clothing design and jewelry design according to different categories. At the same time, a badge was issued to the hand.
Holding the badge in her hand, Luo Jiao heard the housekeeper in front of her say: "Now that fifty of you have come up to draw your own bedroom, the first thing to explain is that you are not only choosing your own bedroom, but also your teammates in the first elimination game." You have one night to develop your bond, and tomorrow you will be teammates hand in hand. ”
The fact that costume and jewellery designers compete with each other in the Mantewi competition has obviously not changed, and it is not the first time that Luo Jiao has heard of it, so it is not surprising.
However, this first round obviously depends mainly on luck, if the teammates are strong, they will naturally be good, and if they are weak, they will also suffer. However, if you can get this place, there will be no weaker person in the future.
Luo Jiao drew her bedroom number is No. 5, and soon heard a girl shouting who is No. 5, seeing this, Luo Jiao also looked over and found that it was a blonde girl with white skin.
Seeing the number five card in Luo Jiao's hand, the blonde girl walked up to Luo Jiao with a smile and stretched out her hand, "Hello, I'm Dorothea." ”
"Hello Rosia, I'm Luo Jiao. Luo Jiao smiled and shook hands.
"Then let's do it together. Dorothea held out her hand cutely and gestured in a cheering gesture.
Seeing this, Luo Jiao also nodded, raised her hand and made the same cheering action.
From a distance, Dong Yiyi saw Luo Jiao standing in the crowd, obviously her height was even more petite in a group of Westerners, but she saw her for the first time.
"Yiyi, what's wrong with you?" Mei Lin walked over to Dong Yiyi, asking her roommate with concern.
"It's fine. Retracting her gaze, Dong Yiyi stopped looking at her.
But Merlin still noticed Luo Jiao's side, to be exact, Dorothea next to Luo Jiao, "MyGod......!
Dong Yiyi had heard this name mentioned by Mei Lin more than once, and when she heard it again, Dong Yiyi couldn't help but look at Dorothea, "That's the design genius you said?"
"Yes, she has had her own clothing brand since she was 18 years old, and the clothes in her store are all her own designs. Speaking of Dorothea, Merlin couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
For Luo Jiao to meet such a high-quality teammate, Dong Yiyi snorted coldly and sighed secretly about her shit luck.
But then I didn't think so, I was just a teammate in the first game.
Thinking of this, Dong Yiyi turned around and walked directly towards the main building of the manor.
Luo Jiao saw Dong Yiyi's back from a distance, squinted her eyes slightly, and always felt a little familiar. But the people went farther and farther, and finally entered the main building, and Luo Jiao didn't care much.
Luo Jiao and Dorothea were in bedroom five, and when they entered, there was no one else in the dormitory, thinking that the roommate should be among those on the lawn.
After simply packing up her things, Dorothea sat on the edge of the bed and lay back, "Luo Jiao, have you ever been to Naba?"
"No, it's the first time. Luo Jiao was slow to pack her things, and at this time she was still putting her skin care products on her own dressing table.
Although it is a four-person dormitory, the room has a lot of space, not only has an independent one-meter-eight bed per person, but also has a matching dresser, table and chairs.
"I've been here many times, and I'm taking you to the best places in Naba on vacation. Dorothea laughed.
"Okay. Luo Jiao responded with a smile.
When Luo Jiao finally cleaned up the dresser and began to put her clothes in the closet, Dorothea obviously couldn't stand her speed and started to help her.
With Dorothea's help, the two quickly cleaned up.
When Dong Yiyi walked through the door of the dormitory, Luo Jiao was slightly stunned, and when she walked to the door quickly, she just saw her enter the No. 6 bedroom next door.
Because of Dong's father's death, Luo Jiao still felt a little guilty about Dong Yiyi, although Bo Yanjiu said that it was not his instructions, but in the final analysis, Dong Chengwen also died in the hands of Wang Gen.
Seeing Luo Jiao who appeared at the door, Dong Yiyi glanced at her lightly, "Is there something wrong?"
"You...... Are you okay?" Luo Jiao couldn't help but ask with some caution.
Thinking of his current situation, Dong Yiyi couldn't help but laugh at himself, "Am I good, can't you see it?" Luo Jiao, my father is dead, and he was killed by you. ”
"We're still investigating about my uncle, but Yiyi, you have to believe me, we have no reason to kill your father. Luo Jiao said eagerly.
"Why is there no reason?" Dong Yiyi's eyes stared at Luo Jiao, with a hint of coldness, "When I disappeared, my father went to look for you and almost hurt you." I never knew that Bo Yanjiu would do that for you, even my father. ”
Dong Yiyi has already determined this matter, obviously no matter what Luo Jiao says, it is useless.
Seeing this, Luo Jiao was also a little helpless, "I know you won't believe what I say now, but this matter will have a result sooner or later." ”
Because the two had been talking in Chinese, Mei Lin couldn't understand what the two were saying. But she obviously remembered Luo Jiao, and looked at her with some curiosity on the side.
Luo Jiao nodded to Mei Lin, who had been watching her for a long time, before turning around and leaving Dong Yiyi's bedroom.
Early the next morning, Luo Jiao and the others got up early and gathered at the restaurant at half past eight on time. By the time breakfast was over, a total of 100 designers gathered on the field at nine o'clock.
Everyone was sorted according to the dormitory number, Luo Jiao and Dorothea stood with the other two roommates, and next to them, Dong Yiyi and Mei Lin also stood with their new roommates.
When Luo Jiao saw Dong Yiyi, she wanted to say a few words to her when she saw that the two were not far away, but Dong Yiyi seemed to not see her, full of refusal, and Luo Jiao didn't want to be bored with herself.
As a recognized cradle of cutting-edge in the industry, the Mantway Contest will be edited and collected after each competition. It can be said that the video of each edition of the Mantewi Competition will be a memory to cherish in the future. After all, behind every successful designer, there will be a past experience that has been excavated by enthusiasts.
As Fanny Montsalaert, the head of the Mantwig contest on stage and the leading fashion woman in the fashion industry, took the stage to deliver a speech, many young designers who liked her were excited.
Seeing the enthusiasm of the scene, Fanny Montsharat just nodded lightly, and began to speak her speech, her voice slightly cold and a little serious.
Dorothea leaned into Luo Jiao's ear and said, "Don't look at her very serious now, in fact, when she eats dessert, she smiles happily." ”
"Are you familiar with Teacher Monsarat?" asked Luo Jiao.
"She wasn't very familiar, she was my aunt, and I used to eat a lot of desserts after her when I was a child. As a result, when I grew up, I didn't want to eat sweets anymore, after all, I ate too much when I was a child. Dorothea said, looking helpless.
Luo Jiao smiled, and did not comment much on Fanny Montsarat, who loved sweets in Dorothea's mouth.
Seeing this, Dorothea didn't say anything anymore, but instead pulled the other roommate in their dormitory and started chatting.
What exactly the schedule will change, they don't know at the moment. According to them, the format will only be announced on the day of the competition.
But what is clear is that at the end of each race, there will be a day off, and this is something that will not change.
The first knockout match was a scoring system, and Luo Jiao and Dorothea were teammates who designed designs that fit each other's themes and each other for 24 hours. Then at 10 o'clock on the second day, there will be a scoring competition, first the score of the clothing design, and then the score of the matching jewelry design, which is added and divided by two, which is the score of the two people in this round of ranking.
The elimination rate in the first game is not low, and the bottom 20 players are eliminated, that is, ten groups of players. It can be said that this is a dangerous warm-up game, starting the first game of the game.
Luo Jiao and Dorothea's initial ranking was not low, and in the fifty groups, the two of them reached the top ten positions. Although it is only the beginning, it is a good start.
By the end of the first knockout match, Luo Jiao and the others had a day's rest, and until nine o'clock the next morning, it was their free rest.
When receiving a call from Bo Yanjiu, Luo Jiao poked Bo Yanjiu's name with her finger, and then hung up his phone directly without knowing what to think.
After a while, it rang again.
Luo Jiao hung again.
Soon, this time it was not a phone call, but a WeChat message.
Boss Bo: What's wrong?
Squeamish Bag: I just don't want to see you, and I don't want to hear your voice.
Boss Bo: Well, answer the phone.
Squeamish Bag: Don't!
Boss Bo: I can explain, answer the phone.
Squeamish Bag: I don't listen!
Boss Bo: I can't go into your manor.
Squeamish Bag:?
Boss Bo: If you're not afraid of being misunderstood, there will be shady......
Squeamish Pack: ......
Squeamish bag: Bye bye, you successfully made me not even reply to WeChat!
Luo Jiao's face was dark, Bo Yanjiu actually dared to threaten herself! Is she really afraid? She still doesn't believe it, can Bo Yanjiu still fly over across the sea?
Snorted, Luo Jiao heard Dorothea beckoning her to go out to eat together, so she immediately cleaned up and followed.
Dorothea is very familiar with Naba, and she knows where there is good food, so she took Luo Jiao directly to an old restaurant with a pure taste, and the two of them ate to their heart's content.
As the two walked out of the restaurant, Dorothea ruffled her long blonde hair, "How's it going?"
"It's delicious, when you go to City A, I'll also invite you to eat delicious. Luo Jiao said.
Because of talking to Dorothea, Luo Jiao didn't pay much attention to the front, who knew that as soon as she finished speaking, she bumped into someone......
"Sorry!" her forehead hit the adult's chin, Luo Jiao couldn't help but cover her forehead, only to feel that her eyes were a little sour.
But when she tried to bypass the person in front of her, she went to the left, and the man went to the left......
Subconsciously, Luo Jiao looked up at the man in front of her, and her forehead ...... I saw a familiar face.
At this time, Luo Jiao was a little confused, is this person's speed faster?
Like the high energy ahead: The ninth master is engaged in mystery again, please collect: () The high energy ahead: The ninth master is engaged in mystery again, and the update speed is the fastest.
