Chapter 345: I Don't Understand

Beauty comes at a price, and the beauty that Victoria's Secret angels have paid for at a high price, coupled with the abundant capital given by God, coupled with appropriate publicity and promotion, makes them not only Victoria's Secret angels, but also angels in the minds of quite a lot of the public.

Sexy and beautiful female models are liked by everyone, but Duke has always prioritized women, and women will always be at the bottom of their careers.

From the brief conversation that day, Duke could feel that the little model Alexandra who had just joined Victoria's Secret? Ambrosio is currying favor with him, perhaps because the other party has the intention to develop in the film industry, or maybe he just wants to pursue excitement.

None of that was on Duke's radar, though, and nothing could have been more important than thorough preparation ahead of the Warner Bros. and Victoria's Secret show.

Except for a few isolated countries and regions, Duke wants the world to notice as much as possible that the Lord of the Rings trilogy is being filmed!

In recent days, Duke and Victoria's Secret Angels have frequently appeared in newspapers and media, and the campaign has already begun.

On Wednesday, under the special arrangement of Warner Bros., Victoria's Secret's Heidi? Krum and Adriana? Lima walked into a studio in New York, and when she came out, she publicly told reporters that they were auditioning for the Lord of the Rings trilogy!

On Thursday, the news was hyped in both print and news media, and Duke, when he went to Victoria's Secret's office building, publicly stated that he thought Victoria's Secret Angels were the best fit for female elves......

On Friday, the New York Times and NBC's "Today Show" also revealed that the Lord of the Rings Studios had reached an agreement with Victoria's Secret executives that Victoria's Secret Angels and models with whom Victoria's Secret has a close relationship will appear in a number of elf characters in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and a photo was exposed.

This photo has brought a lot of attention and aroused the envy and jealousy of countless men!

in the photo. Duke stood upright, surrounded by more than a dozen beautiful and sexy models with long legs and thin waists, and many media directly quoted the name set by the photographer - Duke? Rosenberg and his elven angels!

At the moment when the smoke of the North American summer file dissipated, this triggered another round of movie attention frenzy!

On Friday afternoon, Time Warner and Victoria's Secret held a joint press conference at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel to announce that they would work closely together on the Lord of the Rings trilogy......

"Mr. Tolkien's spirits are elegant, agile, slender and handsome."

Sit on the podium. Duke showed the heroic momentum of fighting a hundred reporters alone, "Angels are the most suitable actors for female elves, and I have no reason not to choose them." If you don't choose an angel who looks the most similar to an elf to star in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, I think you're committing ......a crime."

Heidi? Krum also said a few words on behalf of the angel models, she has been red and purple in recent years, and she has been mentioned by public relations in advance, so it is not difficult to deal with reporters.

"I'm very excited, and all my sisters and I are very excited." She seemed genuinely excited, with a trilling voice in her words. "The Lord of the Rings trilogy is an epic masterpiece, and we never imagined that we would be able to star in such a classic work. Duke is a great director, and we all dream of being in his camera shots. ”

"Director Rosenberg, can you tell us more about the film?"

"Miss Krum, what role will you play?"

"I heard that Mr. Trump will make a cameo in the film, is that true?"

Despite the enthusiasm of reporters in the press room, Duke and Heidi? Krum was out just in time. Breaking the news never ends in one go.

Jamie? Johnson then announced on behalf of Warner and Victoria's Secret that the Victoria's Secret Angels would depart from the Waldorf Astoria Hotel on Sunday on select Victoria's Secret & The Lord of the Rings. Fly to New Zealand with Duke!

The press conference just ended, Pani? The online trolls that Kelis formed for Duke were dispatched, and countless related messages and pictures raided major websites and forums across the United States as quickly as possible, like a plague.

Warner's newly established TMZ website is all about gossip. The story that Duke and Victoria's Secret Angels had to tell was also specially launched......

After working for several days on end, Duke's work is over for the time being, and he can rest for the day and prepare for Sunday's super show.

Just returned to the lounge from the press room. Duke still hasn't had time to talk to Heidi? Krum reminiscences, Tina? Fei came over to inform her that someone was waiting for him.

"She seems to have come to you specifically."

Take the elevator up to the floor where the suite is located, Tina? Fei told him as she walked, "I told you that you were busy and asked her to come another day, but she insisted on waiting for you." ”

Walking into the living room of the suite, a slender and thin girl was standing in front of an oil painting with her back to them, as if she was looking very seriously.

She wore an unusual gray T-shirt and denim shorts, her long curly brown hair casually tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, and an old New York Yankees baseball cap buttoned up to it.

"Hi, Nat."

Walking up to her, Duke took the initiative to say hello, "How can you have time to come over today." ”

"It's been all about you in the media these days, and I think it's interesting how you promote the film." Natalie? Portman withdrew his gaze from the painting and turned to look at Duke, "I remember last time, you said you were going to invite me for a drink when you came to New York again. ”

"I've been a ......bit busy lately," Duke tapped himself on the head, "almost forgot about it." ”

What did he do to Tina? Faye made a gesture, the female assistant immediately left the suite, and Duke walked to the wine cabinet in the living room, and rummaged through it casually, he didn't have a clear understanding of the wine, so he simply took a bottle of Bordeaux red wine and two glasses, and put them on the bar.

"You may be seated, Nat."

Duke opened the red wine and pointed to the high chair opposite the bar, Natalie walked over, sat on it, waited for Duke to put the wine glass, poured in some red wine, and without saying a word, just picked up the wine glass and drank nearly half of it.

Looking at Natalie who put down the wine glass, Duke frowned, listen to Tina? When Fei talked about it, he felt strange, this was not the last time he wanted to fight back with words, and the other party took the initiative to ask him for something? The two were not friends at all.

Although Natalie seems to be calm on the surface, it seems that something has happened when she moves out of the table.

Picking up the red wine, Duke poured it for Natalie again, poured some more into his own glass, and took the initiative to touch the glass with her, "Cheers!" ”

"Cheers!" Natalie drank half more of it.

"Nat?" Duke looked at him, and Natalie raised her face, "Huh? ”

Duke thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know what's going on?" ”

"You know, Duke?" Natalie slowly turned the cup in her hand and lowered her eyelids slightly, "Since the release of "The Phantom Menace", all the qiē has changed. ”

"It's normal." Duke said meaningfully, "You became the world-famous Padmay?" Queen Amidala. ”

"I'm Natalie? Portman ......" Natalie then emphasized, "not anyone else!" ”

Duke shrugged his shoulders and didn't intend to dwell on such an issue.

Natalie took off her Yankees baseball cap, threw it on the bar, and straightened her long brown hair that fell down, "Fame comes at a price, and I have a real feeling during this time, everyone thinks I am the queen of Amidala, and thinks that I have become an unbeatable star, and they take the initiative to distance themselves from me, even a few of my friends." ”

"It's not surprising." Duke picked up the glass and touched it with her again, "At every stage of life, as you develop, you will become alienated or make some friends. ”

"Are you like that too?" Natalie asked, sipping her lipstick.

Duke shook his head, "I have few friends, but Zach? Schneider, John? Schwartzman, Leonardo? DiCaprio, Irene? Lauder and Sophia? Coppola's friends are qualified to talk to anyone on an equal footing. ”

The pair of brown eyes kept turning, and Natalie seemed to be thinking about Duke's words, perhaps she had figured it out, and she suddenly changed the subject, "I passed the interview at Harvard University, and I'll be going to Cambridge City soon." ”

"Congratulations!" Duke offered to raise his glass.

"Thank you." Natalie drank it all.

As Duke poured the drink again, Natalie continued the conversation, "The Harvard admission notice caused me a lot of trouble, and I didn't know who to ask for advice. ”

"Your parents." Duke didn't even think about it, so he gave this answer.

Natalie shook her head, "They can't solve it, because the trouble comes from my family, from my father." ”

Speaking of this, Natalie's brows furrowed slightly, and she took another sip from her wine glass, "When you chose Hollywood, didn't Mrs. Leah object?" ”

"No, my mom just reminded me that the road was tough." Duke's fingers slowly swiped over the wine glass, and he remembered his mother's seemingly cold, but actually gambling-like support, and a smile unconsciously hung on the corner of his mouth, "And my mother secretly gave me enough support, whether it was encouragement or funds, without her, I wouldn't be where I am today." ”

Duke was not stupid, and gradually guessed something, and seeing that Natalie was silent, he asked, "Your father is against you continuing your career as an actor?" ”

"He asked me to give up being an actor."

Rubbing her blushing face, Natalie drank the red wine in her glass again, her voice filled with the struggle and resentment of a young man's resistance, "Dad thinks I should become a doctor in the future instead of going to that vanity fair in Hollywood, and he has been pressuring me to give up acting and focus all my energy on my studies!" ”

"I don't understand!"

Probably suppressed for too long, and with the gradual onset of alcohol, Natalie's calmness is disappearing, and the emptiness gradually becomes excited, "Why can't I pursue my dreams like other girls?" Why did I have to be vegetarian from a young age? Why enforce abstinence? Why ......" (To be continued......
