The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 310: Network show
The ins and outs of the matter are not complicated.
The Golden Globe Awards ceremony is about to kick off. Lanly won the nomination for the first time, and "Buried alive" is still being expanded in an orderly manner. Naturally, Andy can't miss this important opportunity to increase visibility and recognition.
However, Lan Li had been intensively filming "Speed and Excitement/Love 5" before, and after that, he went to Hawaii for a vacation. Not to mention choosing clothes. Even the detailed data of body size did not have time to measure. This is really a headache.
Andy made two-handed preparations. On the one hand, he contacted the stylist who is now on the top list and cannot reappear the situation of the last Emmy Melvin Brades; on the other hand, he started to contact the majors. Fashion brands, see if any brands are willing to sponsor the blue gift and provide blue gift red carpet clothing for free.
This is not an easy task.
Both the fashion circle and the movie circle are the Vanity Fair shrouded in the spotlight. They have a clear attitude. They really lack interest in newcomers like Lan Li with limited achievements.
In the recent period, Lanli’s upward momentum is indeed fierce, and the two Golden Globe nominations made him steal the limelight; but strictly speaking, Lanli is still a newcomer who has appeared in the public eye for less than a year. The nomination is not an Oscar, and more importantly, the return on investment of men’s clothing sponsorship is far less than that of women.
Of course, there are still some brands that show interest in Lanli, but most of them are second-tier brands, and there are also unknown independent brands. There is no indication among the big brands. Even Burberry politely rejected Andy’s inquiry. The last time Blue Li was wearing Burberry on the Emmy red carpet, but obviously, for such a big brand. That said, there is no point value at all.
Andy focused on the stylist.
Stylists and agents are the same, they can manage the clothing styling consultants of several artists at the same time, and their strong connections can also get more clothing resources. A top stylist, the salary is even higher than that of an agent-because they can draw from both the brand and the artist.
But choosing a stylist is extremely difficult.
Those with a reputation are either arrogant, fastidious, not interested in creating newcomers, or they have a lot of work on hand, and there is no time to sign new artists; the less famous ones, and the unknown ones, have no strength. Get enough recognition, every stylist has his own style and characteristics, whether it can collide with the artist, this is much more difficult than choosing a script.
It was under such circumstances that Eaton came into Andy's sight. He came to the door and recommended himself, expressing his willingness to make a styling for Lan Li.
Andy checked Eaton's background information. He hasn't been in the business for a year, and he doesn't have any styling works worth mentioning. But Eaton’s resume is very rich. He was born in Savile Street and graduated from the University of the Arts in London. During his studies, he served as a buyer of Harrods for nearly two years. He has good connections in the four major fashion weeks. After being transferred as a stylist, he has worked with many fashion magazines. Although he did not serve as a fixed stylist for a certain artist, his performance has been recognized to a certain extent.
What moved Andy the most was Eaton’s Savile Street background.
Renly’s research and expertise in suits left a deep impression on him when he confronted Melvin last time, so Andy decided to give Eaton a chance and Renly also a chance to see if they could rub. Sparks. Compared with the Oscars, the Golden Globes have a higher fault tolerance rate and can be used as a cooperation between two people to test the waters.
Thus, there is today's meeting. Andy rushed over to New York almost the first time, but Lan Li slowly went to the supermarket, which really made Andy a little bit dumbfounded.
It's just that Andy didn't expect that Renly and Eaton actually knew each other. This made Andy again start to be curious about Lan Li's wealth background.
"Do you customize the shape for Lan Li?" Matthew looked at Eaton flatly, obviously not looking too much, but the inadvertent pickiness appeared.
Obviously, Matthew is looking at Eaton's dress, which is fashionable, avant-garde, and unique, but it is not suitable for Lanli.
"You are still the same as before." Eaton didn't care, he laughed, "We are not in court now, sir." Eaton deliberately increased the sound of the word "sir".
In fact, according to the rules, people must use the word "Your Excellency" when calling Matthew and Renly, and Andre is like that-and they call Andre "Lord"; but they are all classmates of the same age, and Not in the upper-class social circle in London, so the title is relatively approachable.
"If it is Lan Li, his style of course can not be like this, and this is to attend the Golden Globes red carpet, not London Fashion Week. I am a bold person, not a crazy person. When it comes to madness, who can Contend with Lan Li." Eaton's voice is always brisk, revealing a smell of sunshine, and people can't help but smile.
"Are you talking about Lanly?" Andy showed a puzzled expression. "Blue gift" and "crazy", these two words really don't match up.
Both Matthew and Eaton cast their sights at Lan Li, but they couldn't help but laugh, Lan Li spread his hands, "The rumors stop at the wise man." There was no extra explanation, but there was a trace of joking, which made people laugh.
"So, what are your plans? What is special about the red carpet for the Golden Globes?" Lan Li looked at Eaton.
Although they are old acquaintances, they gradually lost contact after college, and both of them focused on their majors. Therefore, Lanly's understanding of Eaton's strength, style, and taste is very limited. Friends belong to friends, and work belongs to work. Lan Li does not intend to appear on the red carpet of the Golden Globes in a big red suit.
Eaton shrugged, "I'm not sure when you will be back, so I booked a few brands in advance and asked them to deliver the clothes to my hotel room." Eaton frowned and said, "I haven't just arrived in New York. For a week, I don’t even have time to find a place to live. Although the hotel room is a bit clichéd, it can only be done."
"Just before I left the hotel, Alexander-Wang and Tom-Ford said they would come over if they had time; Christopher is in Los Angeles now, but he will send an assistant over." Eaton said The rhythm is very fast, and he said a lot of information in a crackling manner.
"Wait." Andy felt a little overwhelmed.
Alexander is the hottest designer in New York in the past five years, and his modern and simple design style has won a good reputation in the market. Needless to say, Tom saved Gucci by himself, and then created his own name The named brand firmly occupies a place in the first-tier brands.
"Christopher, which Christopher?" Andy has a corresponding name in his mind, but he needs to verify it.
"Bailey. Christopher-Bailey." Eaton replied succinctly.
Christopher, the creative director of Burberry, after accepting Burberry in 1997, he brought this old and backward century-old brand back to its peak, not only giving off a second life, but also gradually surpassing the gold of the last century. In the 19th century, a heyday was created.
Just a week ago, Burberry tactfully rejected the proposal to sponsor Renly; but now, Eaton once again brought Burberry to Renly.
Andy was indeed a little surprised. Thinking about Eaton’s net worth and work history, he suddenly realized that maybe things are not that simple. For outsiders, the British aristocracy always looks at flowers in the fog, because the huge network system is intricate, and it walks in as you listen. Andy just knows that Savile Street is closely related to the royal family, and then One of the top producing areas for handmade suits.
He originally thought that Eaton was still young, and he had only been in the fashion circle for three years, and his qualifications were limited. But obviously, he may still underestimate.
Andy knows only one, but doesn't know the other. Eaton’s Savile Street background is of course important, but more important is his reading experience at Oxford Long Elementary School and Eaton College.
Someone once asked why brotherhoods in British universities are so important. In fact, the reason is very simple, it is the connections.
Take the British Prime Minister David Cameron (David-) as an example. He was born in an upper-middle class family in London, England. His father was a stockbroker and his mother was the daughter of a quasi-baron. His family originated from Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. They are the direct descendants of King William IV and his mistress/wife. They have a long history in the British financial industry. Many members of his ancestors worked as stockbrokers or financial investment~ lightnovelpub.net~When he was in college, he entered Oxford University, relying on his strong family background, he entered the Bullington Club (Bullington-Club). After graduation, the members of the Brotherhood were scattered in various industries and fields of society, watching and helping each other, laying an important foundation for his political/political career, and later became the British Robert Banks Jenkinson (Robert-Banks) since 1812. -Jenkinson) the youngest prime minister since.
In 2014, the film "Noble Nobles", the story is based on the creation of the Burlington Club.
In the United Kingdom, the so-called "fraternity" network does not start at the university, the primary school has already begun to accumulate. Like Lan Li, Andre, Eaton, Matthew, etc., his classmates are less than six hundred people, but now they are starting to walk out of society one after another, and under the arrangement of the family, they have come to their own positions and play Play a greater role.
Renly has left London uniquely. It would not be difficult for Renly to seek an important position in the financial field according to family arrangements. He is also a link in the social circle.
"It's just dinner time. Why don't we go to the hotel restaurant to have dinner together, exchange ideas, and then start working? What do you think?" Eaton looks young, but his behavior is simple and neat, which can be seen. The polishing of the past few years is working.
Andy nodded, "Of course it couldn't be better."
Actresses need to start preparing evening dresses at least three months in advance. Male actors can be slightly shorter, but it also takes about a month. Now it is only half a month before the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, naturally every second must be counted.
