It was late at night, and the celebration party was coming to an end. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Tonight, Eaton generously took out five bottles of Romanée Conti, so that every guest who attended the celebration banquet tasted at least a full glass of Romanée Conti, which made the atmosphere of the scene reach a high / climax, and everyone was cheering.

By the time Nick was about to leave, it was already two in the morning.

"You're not angry at what I said before, are you?" Lu Li could tell that Nick was at the party and had something on his mind.

Nick laughed and shook his head, "Of course not. In fact, you're right, we have gained a lot and we have lost a lot. I always thought that it was the spirit of craftsmanship that made Romanée Conti what made it. But unconsciously, there is not much left of the original intention now, as you said, this time, it is Romanée Conti who has achieved the spirit of craftsmanship. ”

Nick sighed.

recalled the scene when Lu Li visited the winery before, and it was like a world away.

Nick's smile rose again, "Perhaps, we need to re-examine ourselves." Always keep the mood of starting from scratch and starting anew. ”

Lu Li patted his chest exaggeratedly, "It's okay, I thought I wouldn't be able to enter the winery in the future." Even if I can't drink Romanée-Conti, at least I can go inside the winery and show off to my friends. ”

Nick was amused and laughed out loud, "I was going to visit your ranch. In October, your Pinot Noir harvest is about to be. That busy scene, just by painting it in my mind, makes people's hearts surge. But alas, I had to rush back to France this time, and I had to wait for the next time. ”

"Are you sure it's not to escape me?" Lu Li said in a mocking tone.

Nick blinked and said solemnly, "You hope." You're not as important as you think. ”

The two men looked at each other and smiled.

Soon after Nick left, Lu Li was ready to leave.

By this time the party had already passed about half of the party, and Edward and Elizabeth were still dancing in the crowd, busily keeping their feet on the ground, and the couple shared all sixty-six bottles of Henry Jair, a gesture that won them applause and cheers. In fact, the elite class is not as happy as imagined.

"Are you ready to leave too?" Joseph saw Lu Li's footsteps and took the initiative to come over.

Lu Li's cheeks were crimson at this time, with a bright smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were slightly misty, "I drank a little too much, and if I don't go back, maybe I'll fall asleep next to the garbage heap." ”

Joseph was about the same, his face was red, "I have just found three people in the bathroom, huddled in their respective corners in an extremely awkward way. Party, always. Joseph spoke in a slightly more cheerful tone than usual, and the effects of alcohol were now inevitable.

Taking a deep breath, Joseph returned to the topic, "I came here to ask you, after the end of the Romanée-Conti series, will you update the manuscript of tonight's auction and the Kumo Racecourse series on your blog?"

Lu Li obviously didn't expect that Joseph was actually for this matter, he paused for a moment, and immediately said, "Of course, I'm a freelancer now, and this is my job." ”

"Good. Joseph nodded and said affirmatively, "I'll keep an eye on it then." To be honest, I don't know much about Coomore Racecourse, but if it weren't for your column, my knowledge of Château Romanée-Conti would have remained at the original level. So, I'm looking forward to seeing the follow-up articles. ”

First Time magazine, then the New York Times. Both editors-in-chief expressed their expectations for Lu Li's blog, which is really rare.

Just a few days ago, Lu Li was still worried about whether his journalist career had come to an end for the time being after leaving the "New York Observer", and without Julia's relationship, it was difficult to find a place in the media circle in New York;

For any journalist, the New York Times and Time Magazine are the top media outlets of dreams, like a dream manor.

Now, Lu Li has entered the field of vision of the editors-in-chief of these two media.

Of course, Joseph and Stanley are both people who have seen the big world, and Lu Li is just a slightly talented potential stock for them, and they may read Lu Li's blog, but it does not represent any substantive commitment, let alone a job position. However, such continuous attention is enough.

Bidding farewell to the "New York Observer", but ushering in a broader sky. Lu Li's mood couldn't help but leap.

"Looks like I'll have to go back to work now. Otherwise, it's not good to miss the editor-in-chief's deadline. Lu Li's teasing made Joseph smile as well.

Joseph watched the back of the landing.

As the editor-in-chief, Joseph certainly knows that there are more and more talents now, and young people are coming in waves, especially after the pace of globalization is accelerating, and under the fierce competition, the requirements for journalists' literacy are getting higher and higher. But at the same time, there is also the demand for cultural diversity and variability of perspectives, and in the torrent of the Internet, it is no longer enough for news to stand out by relying only on gimmicks and breaking points.

It's like Brandon Stanton in "People in New York."

He wasn't the first to document the city's footprints, nor was he the first to document life on camera, but he succeeded, why? Because his touch was different, he captured the diversity of New York, especially immigrants and the differences in life between different classes.

There is no deliberate sensationalism, no particular political correctness, there is only truth, simplicity, and purity.

So, Brandon succeeded.

Joseph also captured a similar texture on Lu Li's body, unlike Brandon, Lu Li uses words, and his "outsider" attribute has a unique style. This made Joseph see the possibility.

Will Joseph continue to wait and see for a while, in addition to Romani Conti, to see what other abilities Lu Li has, just a flash of inspiration, or is it a real material? Joseph faintly looked forward to it.

Leaving the top floor of the Hilton Hotel, Lu Li and Fred did not rush to hail a taxi, but walked slowly along the street, both of them were a little too drunk and needed to sober up a little.

"How did you get today?" Lu Li asked as he looked at Fred with light steps.

Fred did not answer, but shouted with joy, trotted forward with a puff of smoke, and then jumped up excitedly, spun in a circle in the air, and when he landed, he could not stand steadily, and staggered down the street, and almost fell into the flowerbed next to him, but he did not care, and laughed heartily.

"Great! Great!" Fred turned and began to back away, shouting at Landing Li.

Lu Li opened his mouth, and just wanted to remind Fred that there was a trash can in the back, but Fred bumped into it, held his waist and turned around twice, and whistled, "New York City." Fred laughed heartily and continued, "Not only did I meet the editor-in-chief of The New York Times tonight, but I also talked to the editor of National Geographic for an hour, and I also got an offer for a job, do you know what it is?"

Lu Li spread his hands and signaled that he was waiting for Fred's answer.

Fred jumped again, and then said excitedly, "'Victoria's Secret' was filmed on the catwalk this year!"

Lu Li was stunned, and then said in surprise, "I thought you mainly photographed landscapes, recorded life, and walked the catwalk? This is a fashion thing, and it has nothing to do with you, right?"

Fred rolled his eyes and shouted, "Fourteen, are you in the water? This is the 'Victoria's Secret' catwalk! God, the most beautiful and hottest sex/sex models in the world are all together, and that's enough reason! Okay? No one would say no to such a job, no one!"

The brisk sound echoed through the streets, causing Lu Li to laugh heartily, "I know, of course I do. "Victoria's Secret", every man's ultimate fantasy. "What I want to know is, can I join you?"

"That's the right response!' that's the answer I want to hear!" Fred snapped his fingers, his whole body radiating joy.

Lu Li smiled dumbly, and only then did he have the opportunity to explain what he meant just now, "I mean, I thought you insisted on going your own way and insisting on your own understanding of photography. In that case, a catwalk is not a wise choice. ”

Fred let out a long breath, his chest heaving violently, "I know, of course I do. Fred finally calmed down a little, and then walked to Lu Li's side, "I originally wanted to refuse. However, 'Victoria's Secret' is a part of life, belongs to the entertainment industry, belongs to Vanity Fair, belongs to the big city, and perhaps, under my lens, everything is no longer so colorful and dazzling. At the very least, I wish my lens could have been different. ”

Lu Li gently retracted his jaw and expressed his understanding, "It is a fact that the photographer captures the moments of life. But, then again, I'm serious, can you take me in?"

"Haha. Fred smirked, "Look at what you do next." Fred walked back briskly and put his arm around Lu Li's shoulder, "So, what's going on with you now? Why did you just say that you had a problem with the New York Observer?"

"It's literally the case, there's a problem between us. It was too complicated to explain, and Lu Li brought it lightly.

Fred didn't press on, "So you're also a freelancer now?"

"Yes, I guess. Lu Li nodded in affirmation.

"It's good, both of them are unemployed, and then neither of them wants to admit it. Fred's alternative interpretation is characteristic.

Lu Li raised his right hand high, "Salute to the unemployed." ”

No, there was an echo from the other side of the street, "Hail to the unemployed!" and everyone laughed together.
