Volume 2 1999 Chapter 89 The Ugly Duckling

Maybe you're a dishwasher in a Chinese restaurant and spend most of your day standing in front of the sink picking up dishes and barely socializing outside of work, maybe you're short and have pimples and freckles on your face, and you're a little transparent in your class, maybe you've fantasized more than once that the prince comes to you on a white horse, but the reality is that the prince doesn't know where you are......

What to do?

It's simple, as long as you have a computer, connect to the Internet, install chat software, and go to the ...... Rest assured, you may not be able to find a life partner, but you can always find a few soul friends.

That's the joy of chatting with strangers.

You don't care what your true self is, you just need to put your best side into words, and the rest is up to God's choice.

Maybe a white swan accidentally saw your toad?

……

Li Yuan's advertising ideas are mediocre.

First of all, there must be a fat house - or something else, and then there is a beautiful and golden woman, and the two meet and fall in love through the Internet, and then finally one day, they decide to meet......

It's a bloody design, and after listening to it, everyone laughed.

Only Paris didn't laugh.

Paris asked seriously, "So, what I want to play is the beautiful and golden lady?"

"Of course - no. ”

Li Yuan made a joke and said: "If it's just like this, it's too lacking in challenges for you, in fact, I want you to play that fat otaku ......"

"You wait!" Paris interrupted Li Yuan and asked, "That fat house, but you just said that there was a beautiful woman......

"Listen to me. Li Yuan said: "Advertising should be anti-routine, if a boy who looks ugly, has a poor figure and has no money chases you, will you accept him?"

"Of course not!" Paris shuddered as she thought about the scene.

"So, if you follow the conventional routine and shoot two people meeting, what will be the result? It's a tragedy. It's going to be a disappointment for the audience – our potential users, and they're going to think, am I going to be in this situation too?"

"In that case, why don't you just change to a handsome guy and a beautiful woman?"

"It's dramatic. Li Yuan said helplessly: "How many handsome guys and beauties are there?" After all, there are only a few in reality, and it is too unconvincing to shoot it. ”

"As long as it's good-looking......"

"Do you know what is the easiest way for Hollywood female stars to get recognition for their acting skills?"

Li Yuan asked and replied: "Pretend to be ugly." Only if people ignore your appearance will they see your acting skills. The reason why I want you to play a fat house is because I am afraid that you will be defined as a vase. ”

"Ah, I understand!" Paris suddenly realized, and then without Li Yuan explaining, she figured it out herself: "So, I'm a woman, and I'm playing a man online?"

"Yes, at least when you meet, the other party won't pull their legs and leave, after all, women will always be more tolerant of women. ”

"We can add more settings, such as that you are just not good at taking care of yourself, so that you look so bad that you don't even dare to identify yourself as a woman online...... When you meet each other and find that the other person is a big beauty, under her guidance, you begin to learn to dress up, and then transform into a ...... In this way, there is drama, there is anticipation of online chat, and other people will take your role and imagine what it will be like for this to happen to you, and once you start fantasizing, then they will definitely become our users......"

……

After listening to Li Yuan's finished talking about the advertising idea, Haim sighed: "I have a hunch now that I may not be able to win the bet." ”

"Isn't that great?" Li Yuan smiled: "Trust me, you lose the bet, but you can win more." ”

Li Yuan said and turned to Paris: "How about it?"

"Of course, but ......," Paris frowned, "I still can't imagine what it's like to play a fat house, I think it must be terrible, and I think another role would be better for me." ”

And so it was.

Li Yuan sighed in his heart, he didn't have to make Paris ugly, he could only say that it was a bad taste.

Li Yuan said: "Actually, these two characters are created for you, I originally hoped that you could play two roles......"

Paris was a little moved, but finally shook her head: "It's too difficult for me to play two roles. ”

The difficulty of the fart.

Li Yuanxin said, you just don't want to be ugly.

Even if the ox doesn't drink water, it can't force its head to be pressed.

Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "In this case, we have to find another actor, do you have a suitable candidate?"

"Can I refer a friend?"

Paris said, "I have a good friend who I think is a good fit for the fat ......"

Speaking of this, I don't know what she thought, and she couldn't help laughing.

When she had laughed enough, Li Yuan said, "Of course, if you think it's appropriate, arrange a time another day and everyone will meet." ”

"No other day, I'll call her now. ”

Paris said as she ran downstairs.

She didn't care about her master's attitude.

Li Yuan shrugged apologetically at Haim, who smiled understandingly, saying that he didn't mind.

……

Coming down from the upper floors and sitting back on the couch, the three men continued their discussion around software development and operations with undiminished interest.

Men talk about work, women are bored, so they talk about men.

The topic quickly talked about Li Yuan.

At this time, Zhao Min inevitably had to take out Li Yuan's "versatility" to bask in the sun.

As they chatted, Paris's cell phone rang.

"Where have you been? You've seen my car? Okay, hang up. ”

Paris said a few words, looking at her posture, she had no intention of getting up to greet or open the door.

Finally, Mrs. Karen opened the door and led a girl into the living room.

Seeing the girl's appearance, everyone looked weird.

The girl is only about 1.5 meters tall, and even if she is placed in Asia, she must be considered short. What's more, she is not only short, but also fat.

In addition, her dress is also lackluster, with a fat jacket and straight-leg jeans, which not only looks impersonal, but even vulgar.

Paris was much more enthusiastic when the girl entered, beckoning her to sit beside her.

As a result, under the background of the bejeweled Paris, the girl looks more and more inconspicuous.

It's a modern-day version of the Ugly Duckling and the White Swan.

……

The girl seemed submissive, and even the introduction was done by Paris.

"Her name is Nicole Richie and she is a good friend of mine. He is Li Yuan, a magician from the East......"

Paris's introduction made Li Yuan feel embarrassed.

How do you feel that since he came to the United States, everyone wants to get him closer to the god stick?

"Hello. Nicole greeted cautiously and looked at Li Yuan curiously.

"Hello. Li Yuan saw that she was a little cringe, and joked: "Paris is joking with you, I'm not a magician......"

"I'm not kidding. Paris said, "Lee is really amazing, he can also read minds......

"Really?" said Nicole, incredulous.

How many times do you want me to explain......

Li Yuan felt very powerless, thought about it, and gave up the idea of explaining.

"Well, in a sense, I do know what you're thinking, or what you want. ”

Seeing that Nicole's curiosity was aroused, Li Yuan said: "What you want most is to be beautiful." ”

A big exclamation mark instantly appeared on Nicole's face!

Paris triumphantly asked her, "How's that? Am I right?"

Nicole didn't pay attention to Paris, but looked directly at Li Yuan and asked, "How do you know?"

"I lied to you. Li Yuan smiled and said, "Every woman wants to become more beautiful, and of course you are no exception. ”

Seeing Nicole's disappointed face, Li Yuan decided not to tease her anymore.

"I do make you prettier, though. ”

……

Who is Nicole Richie?

Nicole Richie is the adopted daughter of the famous American black singer Lionel Richie, and is a standard second-generation star.

Her adoptive father was a household name, and her godfather was even more famous — Michael Jackson, but Nicole Ritchie was not very conspicuous as a child, and as an adult, she was once unknown, and for many years she was reduced to Paris's henchman — the kind that sacrificed herself to foil others.

The reason for all this is her poor appearance and even worse taste in dressing.

It all happened until she met Rachel Zoe. Zoe) was changed.

Rachel is a stylist, and under her guidance, Nicole began to lose weight and learned how to dress, thus becoming a legend in the fashion industry.

Li Yuan had a girlfriend in his previous life who was keen on fashion and often paid attention to the outfits of various celebrities, especially Nicole, and collected a large number of her street photos, so Li Yuan left a deep impression on this star who became popular purely by wearing clothes.

So......

Li Yuan knew that Nicole and Paris were "good girlfriends", and he also knew why they parted ways - the reason was very simple, later Nicole became beautiful and was no longer suitable for contrasting Paris, and Paris had to choose a new follower.

…… Here's the problem.

Li Yuan said that he could make Nicole more beautiful, obviously planning to copy Rachel's set, but if he really did this, it was likely to destroy a pair of "good girlfriends".

That's it.

Li Yuan glanced at Paris, thinking that Paris would still go farther and farther on the road of "knowing people and not knowing people" anyway.

Yes, Paris picks the level of followers...... It's terrible enough. Her second sidekick, Kim Kardashian, later also staged the fairy tale of the ugly duckling turning into a swan.

For Paris, it was a tragedy.

……

"You say, you can make me pretty?"

Nicole looked excited and asked, "You mean, plastic surgery?"

"Nope. Li Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm not a plastic surgeon, and you don't need to undergo plastic surgery." Also, it's not me who makes you pretty, it's you who make yourself pretty. ”

"Me?" said Nicole, looking dazed.

"Look at yourself!" Li Yuan said unceremoniously: "I have always believed that there are no ugly women, only lazy women." But if you look at yourself, how long has it been since you've been paying attention to your weight?"

Nicole bowed her head in shame.

Li Yuan didn't let her go, and continued: "Look at your dress again? It's hard to imagine that you are actually wearing a pair of flat heels, are you very satisfied with your height?"

Nicole looked up, her face flushed, her mouth opening and opening, and finally gave up her defense.

Li Yuan hated the iron and said with hatred: "Do you know what the worst thing is? You don't even have the courage to refute! Confident, confident, confident! If you don't understand the meaning of this word, you will never be able to change it, understand?"

"Li Yuan......"

Zhao Min couldn't listen anymore, and hinted with his eyes that Li Yuan was paying attention to the expressions of several other women. The others, whether it was Paris, Mrs. Karen, or Chen Chen, all looked at Li Yuan with a hellish expression, to be honest, Li Yuan's seizure really scared them, and they couldn't connect him with the elegant big boy just now.

Of course, Li Yuan also noticed, he replied to Zhao Min with a slightly calm look, and asked Nicole in a slightly soothing tone: "Tell me now, are you ready to change yourself?"
