Chapter 773: One Step to the Heavens
"The agent said, I, let's just come by ourselves," explained Gisele Bundchen in a whisper, knowing that her voice was hoarse, and deliberately suppressed her voice in order not to magnify this shortcoming.
Alexandre Ambrosio, who was next to him, nodded as well.
The sentence was a little longer, and Eric could hear the thick accent of Gisele Bundchen's intonation. Remembering that the official language of Brazil should be Portuguese, judging from the information from their agency, the two girls left Brazil for less than half a year, during which Giselle was sent to Milan, Italy for most of the time, and the English level of the two girls can be imagined.
Eric was about to insult IMG and Elite without hesitation to send the two girls who couldn't even speak English alone, and then realized that they might just think that they were going to do something, and it didn't matter if they could speak English or not.
These model agencies are really indifferent enough, perhaps, as long as their models can become popular and let them get a good commission, the rest doesn't matter.
Feeling Eric look at the two of them playfully again, Giselle and Alexander, although their expressions became a little nervous, moved their bodies without a trace, and assumed a slightly amorous little pose.
Eric smiled, thinking that he really should do something, so he pointed to the kitchen, "Do you know how to cook?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
The two girls looked puzzled at the same time.
Eric said: "I was going to order takeout, but since there are only four people at noon, the two of you will be in charge of lunch, go ahead, and do whatever you want." β
Because of the time, both girls' English was very jerky, but they still heard Eric talking about four people at noon.
Like, there's only three people here.
Although they were puzzled, the two girls did not show it, but obediently got up and walked towards the kitchen, thinking in their hearts, this should be a test, right?
The thought arose, and Giselle and Alexander looked at each other, unconsciously thinking, if this was really a test, what would happen if they won and what would happen if they lost?
They don't want to be the one who loses.
Since receiving the notice, they have been carefully preparing for this matter under the arrangement of the brokerage company.
Although they have just entered the industry, after this period of time, they know very well what Eric Williams represents, even if they don't talk about Hollywood, just the fashion industry, the Victoria's Secret annual show created by the other party has become a training ground for supermodels, with a complete set of marketing operations with the Victoria's Secret annual show as the core, this fashion show directly pushed the fashion models who were originally far away from ordinary people to the public, and the models who were originally limited to the fashion circle because of their popularity expanded, and then their value doubled, and the annual income of the top Victoria's Secret supermodels in the past two years even exceeded that of most Hollywood first-line actressesγ
If they can be favored by such a big person, as the agency BOSS personally explained, they will also ascend to the sky.
Although after being selected, the two companies did some communication, but after all, the two of them had just met, even if they were also from Brazil, they were fellow countrymen, but they did not have any friendship. Walking into the kitchen, the two women came to the refrigerator together, quietly taking the ingredients they were good at, with no intention of cooperating, let alone helping each other.
After 12 o'clock in the afternoon, Cindy returned from the crew of "America's Top Model Contest" and saw Eric alone in the living room, and asked, "Where are the people?"
Eric gestured to the kitchen.
Cindy curiously glanced at the two girls who were busy in the kitchen, with a strange smile on her face, and turned to Eric, "Your interest is really strange." β
Seeing that Cindy looked at him as if he was looking at a monkey who had fixed the Seven Fairies but ran to pick peaches, Eric shrugged helplessly: "Am I such a impatient person in your eyes, not to mention that it's daytime now." β
Cindy's expression immediately turned to resentment, and she said, "Oh, it looks like I'm going to be swept out of the house tonight." β
"No, in view of your unwarranted questioning of my character, I have decided to clean you up tonight. β
Giselle and Alexander quickly make lunch, and Eric walks into the restaurant with Cindy.
The two girls had just heard Cindy's voice, and at this time, after seeing her in person, the girls' expressions were obviously more eager than seeing Eric, after all, Cindy could be regarded as the ultimate goal of their future struggle.
Based on the information in his memory, Eric felt that among the two girls, Giselle's style was more like Linda Ivan Golinsta, both of whom were supermodels with strong professional skills and strong personal style, but their appearance was not outstanding. And Alexander is more like Cindy, because of their sweet and lovely faces, they have even more star temperament than supermodels.
Eric was never so picky about food, and ate his lunch contentedly, and did not shy away from the two girls, asking Cindy, "What do you think of them?"
Giselle and Alexander, who were eating like cats, stopped almost at the same time and looked at Cindy hopefully.
Although she will not personally 'bring' these juniors as Eric said in the morning, so that they can grab their jobs in the future, as a woman with high emotional intelligence, Cindy will never say anything offensive to people, looked at the two girls for a moment, and said to Eric: "The foundation is very good, if you want, when they reach adulthood, they will be able to appear on the Victoria's Secret stage immediately." β
Saying that, Cindy looked at Giselle, as a veteran supermodel who has been in the circle for more than ten years, of course she could see at a glance that Alexander's body proportions are not so coordinated, and his legs are a little short, if it weren't for his beautiful face to make up for the shortcomings of his figure, I'm afraid it would be difficult to walk far here, but Giselle's qualifications are very good: "Your name is Gisele Bundchen, right, how did your company plan for you?"
Giselle looked a little flattered and said, "The company originally planned to let me participate in the Spanish beauty pageant. β
Cindy nodded: "It seems that your company still values you very much, and if you get a ranking in a beauty contest, there will be enough gimmicks to package you." With your appearance qualifications, you're sure to be very popular with high street circles. β
Although Giselle was a little excited about Cindy's evaluation, he still looked at Eric and plucked up his courage to say, "However, the agent told me in the morning that I will listen to Mr. Williams's arrangement in the future." β
If Eric could have done it himself, his original career plan would certainly not have been considered.
With the media resources in Eric's hands, it is easy to make them into top supermodels, just look at Diane Kruger, the young German supermodel who is now on a par with several old supermodels in the fashion industry, but two years ago, she was just an ordinary model.
Thinking of Diane Kruger, Giselle looked at Eric with a little more obvious eagerness. Even Alexander, who was probably thinking of the same thing.
When Cindy heard Giselle's words, she remembered the email from the morning, and looked at Eric with a smirk, as if to say that another girl was planning to rely on you.
Ignoring Cindy's teasing expression, Eric shook his head and said, "I won't help you make arrangements, you still have to rely on yourself to go where you can go in the future." β
Although Eric said this, Giselle and Alexander did not have the slightest loss on their faces.
Although they behaved a little abnormally in front of Eric because of their nervousness, their intelligence was undoubted, and without a shrewd mind, they would not have achieved so much in the fashion industry in the original time and space. The two girls understand very well that the random leakage of some resources by these big names is a great help to these little models whose careers are just starting out.
After lunch, I was probably familiar with Eric's temperament, and the two girls lost their initial inhibitions. After all, although Eric has a lot of aura that makes people look up, he is only a young man in his twenties after all.
Cindy only came back in a hurry at noon to join in the fun, and the two girls neither disappointed her nor had any surprises, and hurried back to the crew of "American Supermodel Competition" after lunch.
The second season of this reality show is about to return in early March, and compared to "Lust City", which can be filmed and broadcast at the same time, the reality show must be produced in one go before it is broadcast, so her schedule is very tight.
Giselle and Alexander consciously finished washing the dishes and returned to the living room, where they found Eric already sitting by the glass window tapping on his laptop.
After hesitating, Giselle plucked up his courage, stepped forward, and said, "Mr. Williams, do you need me to make your coffee?"
"No," Eric subconsciously shook his head, then reacted, looked up at the two girls, motioned for them to sit down opposite, and said, "The filming schedule of the movie has not been set yet, you can continue to do your own things in the next period of time, and I will have someone notify your agency when the time comes." β
"Ah, so, me, we've got the role?" said Giselle, with a gleeful look on his face.
Eric smiled and nodded, "Of course, but it's just a few small characters that pass by, so don't expect too much." β
Alexander spoke first this time and complimented: "It doesn't matter, as long as we can participate in Mr. Williams's movie, we feel honored." β
Eric smiled and said, "It's so sweet, but when the time comes, it will probably be filmed in Panama, the scenery there is very good, you can play for a few more days, it can be regarded as a vacation." β
Alexander rushed to say, "Thank you, um, me, can we call you Eric?"
"Of course," Eric nodded, suddenly noticing that Alexander had unconsciously moved his chair to his side, looking up and down at the girl's delicate body lying on the round table with one hand on her chin, and asked with a smile, "What are you going to do this afternoon?"
Alexander Tanuki stretched out a small hand like a paw, but he became timid halfway, but he just picked up a pencil on the table and played with it in his hand, and said, "We don't know what to do." β
Although Eric enjoyed the clumsiness of the two girls seducing him so awkwardly, he didn't have any thoughts in his heart. In his current status, there is no shortage of women around him, and there is no need to deliberately touch certain rules, if he can't maintain enough self-discipline, it is easy to fall.
"Well," Eric said, closing his notebook, "how about taking you there?"
"Huh?" both girls were a little stunned.
"I mean, shopping and so on, there are still a lot of fun places in Manhattan, such as ......" Speaking of this, Eric was a little stuck, and he really didn't remember anything interesting in Manhattan for a while, so he had to say: "Forget it, it seems that I am not very familiar with Manhattan, it is better to find a Manhattan native." β
Both Giselle and Alexander pretended not to notice Eric's momentary embarrassment, only to show a small expression of anticipation at the same time.
Eric quickly thought of a woman who was all too familiar with Manhattan, picked up his phone and searched for it in the address book for a while, dialed the phone, said a few words to the other person, and then got up and said, "Let's go." β
After a short ride around Manhattan with the two girls, Eric's car stopped at Rockefeller Center in Midtown.
On the street not far away, the crew of "Lustful City" is filming exterior scenes.
If there is anyone who is most familiar with the places to eat, drink and play in Manhattan, the first person who comes to mind is Candace Bushnell, the beautiful writer of "Lust City".
The main reason why "Lust City" can become the Bible of Manhattan's fashion life is that this TV series introduces and depicts a series of well-known restaurants, bars, galleries, nightclubs and other gathering and entertainment venues in Manhattan.
Of course, because of this, "Lust City" in the original time and space has been criticized by many critics for over-promoting hedonism.
Noticing Eric's figure, in the crowd, the tall Candace Bushnell walked over with another middle-aged man.
Eric hugged Candace Bushnell and greeted him before looking at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man respectfully stretched out his hand to Eric and introduced himself, "Hello, Mr. Williams, I'm Terry Patrick, one of the producers of "Lust City", would you like to go over and have a look?"
"No, I'm just here to pick up Candace, by the way, she doesn't have any work next, right?"
"Of course not," Terry Patrick said, shaking his head, "Ms. Bushnell is just here to visit." β
"That's good," Eric nodded, "then, you guys keep busy." β
Terry Patrick said goodbye and left with interest.
Eric introduced Candace Bushnell to the two girls next to him, and said, "I happened to be resting today, and I'm going to walk around Manhattan, how about you being a tour guide?"
"Of course," Candace Bushnell looked away from the two green-faced girls, and said with a smile without asking much more in his eyes, "but I don't promise where you'll want me to take you." β
Eric took the initiative to help Candace Bushnell pull the car door, and said with a smile: "Get in the car, if you don't like it, we can just change places, anyway, Manhattan is so big." (To be continued.) )
