Chapter 654: Be Positive
After waiting patiently for nearly an hour, Tina Brown had almost memorized the tune of the rock song that was playing repeatedly, and the rehearsal on the runway stopped.
Kelly looked at the situation not far away and walked over with the three of them.
As soon as they got closer, Kelly regretted bringing Tina and the others over in advance, because Eric was unceremoniously provocative: "The whole song is 3 minutes and 40 seconds, so the interval between each of you is 17 seconds, and the overall stay time on the catwalk is 30 seconds, I don't expect you to be 100% accurate, but the error before and after must not exceed 5 seconds, and there are at least 5 people who can't meet this requirement just now." Also, Cindy, Paulina, Tyra, you three, don't continue to walk the big cross, the pace is more restrained, I know the plane effect of the big cross is the best, but it will definitely not look so good in the TV footage, and besides, this kind of step is likely to make you fall under the fast pace of the first BGM, if this kind of thing really happens, the theme will definitely be re-recorded because of your mistakes, but I will never mind putting the footage of you falling on ABC to broadcast it again......"
Eric spoke for more than five minutes, training a group of perfect bodies that the men did not stand up to quail, before he stopped, subconsciously stretched out his hand, Kelly rolled her eyes and handed him a bottle of mineral water, Eric noticed Tina Brown, Caroline and Melanie behind him with unnatural faces.
With a waiting look on his face, Eric took a few sips of water and said to the models, "Okay, that's all for the morning, Diane, Cindy, and Tyra, you three go change your clothes and have lunch together." β
Relieved, the models quickly dispersed, and Eric turned around and hugged Tina Brown warmly. "Tina, have you been waiting for a long time?"
Tina Brown smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing, it's just the way you work, it's really impressive." β
Eric spread his hands and said, "You know, my age. If you don't be strict, it's hard to make this group of beautiful people obedient. β
Tina Brown knew in her heart that Eric had some other intentions in doing this, but she smiled and didn't break it.
Eric hugged Melanie Gleeson again, then walked up to little Caroline, and teased: "Caroline, I haven't seen you for a few months, you seem to have grown a little taller." β
Caroline's face was red and her toes were staggering on the floor, a little shyly not knowing whether to admit that she was wearing a little heel today, but her small body had been picked up by Eric. I was also picked up like a child.
Eric just hugged the girl, put the girl on the ground, and smiled, "It seems to be lighter." β
Of course, Caroline didn't dislike Eric's hug, but looked at the dozens of eyes around her at the same time, and suddenly didn't know what to do, so she could only subconsciously answer Eric's teasing: "No, it's still 96 pounds." β
Amid the laughter around her, Caroline realized that her answer must have been terrible.
"96 pounds is just right. However, girls are the same weight and age, so they are not suitable to tell others casually. Eric said, seeing that Caroline's face was even more ruddy, and he had to throw a look at Kelly.
Kelly glared lightly at Eric, who was bullying the little girl, and walked over to hold Caroline affectionately, saying, "Eric, you and Ms. Brown must have a lot to discuss. I'll take Caroline and Melanie to the onboarding process first. β
Just seeing that Eric was about to leave, Caroline raised her little face, her eyes showed a hint of reluctance, and Eric said considerately: "I still have something to do in the afternoon, can I invite you to dinner with Melanie in the evening?"
Caroline nodded subconsciously. But he felt that this was a bit unreserved, so he lowered his little head again and left the studio with Kelly.
After the three figures disappeared, Tina Brown said to Eric with a hint of surprise in her tone: "It's the first time I've seen a girl turn negative in real life in front of the man she likes. β
Eric shrugged and smiled, "I see, Tina, you're certainly not complimenting me. β
"But I'm not sarcastic, I'm just very curious, I've had a great time with Caroline along the way, and this girl is perfect in every way," Tina Brown said, shaking her head slightly.
At this time, Eric had just ordered the three Victoria's Secret spokespersons, Diane Kruger, Cindy Crawford, and Tyra Banks, to come out of the changing room, and the two did not continue the topic.
"You must know the two of them," Eric said, pointing to Cindy Crawford and Tyra Banks, who had been famous for a long time, and watched Tina Brown hug the two girls very familiarly, before continuing: "This is Miss Diane Kruger, from Germany. β
Tina Brown noticed the girl with a little green face while she was waiting, and stretched out her hand and said, "Hello, Diane, I'm Tina Brown, and your steps just now are very powerful." β
Diane Krueger didn't know about Tina Brown's recent situation, but Tina Brown's title of editor-in-chief of "Vanity Fair" was still very thunderous to her, and when she heard Tina Brown's introduction, she shook hands with the other party with some flattery: "Hello, Ms. Brown, I ...... I've also seen "Vanity Fair". β
Tina Brown smiled and said, "It's a pity that I don't work for Vanity Fair anymore." β
Diane Kruger didn't know what was going on, and fearing that this unintentional remark had offended the other party, and looked at Eric suspiciously.
Eric explained, "Tina is now the editor-in-chief of the Yahoo portal, the Yahoo from Breaking Bad, you know that, right?"
Diane Kruger nodded hurriedly: "I know, I've been visiting this website a lot lately, and a lot of the fashion information on it is very good, since the editor-in-chief of the website is Ms. Brown, then everything is normal." β
Tina Brown smiled faintly, in response to Diane Kruger's compliment, and then asked Eric, "Didn't you say there are five spokespersons?"
"Christy Durrington and Linda Ivan Golinsta each walked through the opening of the latter two themes, and today is just a preliminary rehearsal of the first theme," Eric explained, "It's already noon." Let's go to the restaurant and talk as we go. β
Seeing Eric and Tina Brown walking out side by side, Cindy Crawford and the three daughters, although they didn't quite know what Eric was calling for the three of them, followed quickly, quietly behind them.
"Eric, I've just listened to that song many times. Kelly said you wrote it yourself, what's your name?"
"MySongsKnowWhatYouDidInTheDark, hehe, isn't the name a bit long?"
Tina Brown smiled and said, "It's an interesting name, but since you wrote it yourself, I guess it's as good as that 'NewDivide', so why not try to hit the charts in advance." This will definitely bring more attention to the Victoria's Secret show. β
"Whether it is before or after the Victoria's Secret show, the focus of publicity is on the show itself, especially Diane and their spokespersons, I don't want the limelight of this annual show to be stolen by a few songs in advance, which is not in line with the proposed publicity strategy. After the Victoria's Secret show is held, the popularity begins to subside, and Firefly Records will launch singers and groups who sing BGM in a timely manner, so that the topic of Victoria's Secret can continue to be continued. β
Tina Brown nodded with some understanding, but the three girls who followed silently behind the two were a little confused. But I was still a little excited by the part of Eric's words that focused on recommending a few of their spokespersons, of course. Cindy Crawford and Tyra Banks glanced jealously at Diane Krueger, whose name was specifically mentioned by Eric. Although after a few months of intensive training, Diane Kruger's originally somewhat mediocre steps have made great progress, and have vaguely reached the standard of 'getting out of the aura' required by Eric, but in the eyes of Cindy Crawford and Tyra Banks, Diane Kruger's status in the modeling circle is still a rookie. Of course, the most famous Cindy Crawford also looks down on Tyra Banks. Because many people know that Tyra Banks got the position of spokesperson, on the one hand, the eldest sister of the African American supermodel, Naomi Campbell, took the initiative to give up this opportunity, and on the other hand, Victoria's Secret was out of the right considerations of Zhengzhi.
Eric knows that the level of intrigue in the modeling industry is only higher than that of Hollywood, but as long as these models do not affect the production progress of the Victoria's Secret show. He didn't care about any of that.
According to the data collected by Ian, by 1995, the number of Internet users in North America will probably increase to about 25 million, and the number of Internet users outside North America will probably reach this number. South Korea and other overseas countries are expanding, but what we want to discuss today is to further expand the influence of Yahoo Portal through the Victoria's Secret show incident," After dinner, Eric chatted with Tina about business: "I remember that you were very successful in winning Princess Diana with Prince Charles, activating the old British magazines "Chatter" and "Vanity Fair" The rise of the Reagan couple is also taking advantage of the Foxtrot incident of the Reagan couple, so how to use the topic of the Victoria's Secret show to increase Yahoo's influence, I think you must be more experienced than me, right?"
Tina Brown smiled and nodded, handed a copy of the prepared copy to Eric, and said, "This is my preliminary plan based on some of the information you passed to me, but the information you gave before was not too complete, so there are some places where I didn't do it so carefully. β
Eric patiently read the project, he originally wanted to tell Tina Brown about the Internet topic hype in the future, but Tina Brown's plan covered almost all aspects of the later Internet topic hype, Eric couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he really couldn't underestimate the wisdom of the 'ancients'.
In the planning case, Tina Brown not only listed how to gradually put news on the portal in the early stage of the Victoria's Secret show, but also planned to use the Yahoo forum to introduce netizen interaction after the Victoria's Secret show, hyped the topic of the Victoria's Secret show to the highest, and even drew up a hype plan for the Internet to vote for the most popular supermodel.
Noticing that Eric's expression had become a little strange, Tina Brown asked worriedly, "Eric, what do you think?"
"Of course, very detailed," Eric nodded, and asked again, "By the way, have you discussed the technical feasibility of these solutions with Ian?"
"Discussed," Tina Brown nodded affirmatively: " The other items are not too difficult, Steve's team recently optimized the GIF image compression algorithm again, with the current average network speed, Yahoo's web page can open pictures with a length and width of about 20 cm in 2 seconds, and the picture quality is very good, and there is a voting system, this I am worried that Steve will delay, specially let Ian personally take charge of developing this system, we will definitely be able to launch it as soon as the Victoria's Secret show airs in December, and, if it proves to be very good, we can also reuse this voting system on other projectsγ β
Tina Brown said very generally, although Eric didn't see the prototype of this voting system, but he suddenly remembered another famous social networking site FB that suddenly rose up by relying on the voting system, however, it doesn't seem to be the time for FB to launch, Eric just shook his head for a while, pointed to the three girls who were hanging out for a while next to him, and said: " You can talk to the three of them individually about what you need, and I think you're going to stay in L.A. for a few more days, and then you can find time to get in touch with Christie and Linda, but there's one thing I want you to get right with their press releases. β
Seeing Tina Brown nodding, Eric looked at Cindy Crawford and the three daughters without warning: "You also need to pay attention to these things, I don't care what your private life is, but before the Victoria's Secret show is broadcast, I definitely don't want to see any messy news about you appear in the gossip tabloids, of course, I will not interfere with your normal relationship." β
Even if Eric doesn't remind him, most of the models who have the idea of taking this opportunity to catch a certain super big Kaizi won't make any messy news. Cindy Crawford and Tyra Banks nodded meaninglessly in agreement, of course, and Diane Kruger hesitated and nodded obediently.
Eric thought for a moment, looked at Cindy Crawford, and said, "Also, it's better not to touch the person who is too bad for style, I hope your love partner can be more positive and sunny." (To be continued.) )
