Heads Up Hollywood

This charity ball is called Met_Ball, and its purpose is to raise funds for the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to train more and better fashion designers.

It has been in business for thirty years.

If the Oscar ceremony is the party stopper on the west coast of the United States, then the Met_Ball is the most star-studded event on the east coast of the United States!

In this grand event, noble socialites, Hollywood A-list stars, outstanding players in the sports world, and giants in the fashion industry will all attend enthusiastically, and take out their most grand equipment to join this gorgeous event.

In addition, many local tyrants also participated in it.

Media tycoons like Summer Redstone and Don Walker are nothing more than that. After all, they still have some ties to the fashion industry, but it's strange to have some big bosses.

For example, the major shareholder of a certain drug manufacturer, the manager of a certain foundation, the big boss of a certain real estate developer, the person in charge of a certain securities intermediary company...

These local tyrants are either aiming at the face of "VOGUE" magazine editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, or to promote their personal image, or... they are philatelists, and they come here to find new products.

As for Anna Wintour... This name will be very unfamiliar to people who are not in the fashion industry.

But when it comes to a movie, everyone knows it well - "The Devil Wears Prada"!

That's right, the prototype of "Miranda" played by Meryl Streep in the movie is this Anna Wintour!

So when he saw her, Tang En said: "Anna, I really trouble you this time. By the way, have you read a novel? "The Devil Wears Prada"."

Anna Wintour slapped her forehead, both annoyed and dumbfounded.

Tang En smiled and said: "It seems that I know."

Anna Wintour shook her head and laughed, "Lauren used to work at Vogue, oh, that's the author of this book, Lauren Weisberg. She's a wonderful little girl, she worked for me for a year Assistant. In the end...the pressure was too great, so she resigned, and she didn't expect to come up with such a book."

Tang Enruo said meaningfully: "This is a good book!"

"Oh?" Anna Wintour reacted quickly and realized something, "Could it be... going to be remade into a movie?"

Tang En smiled, "That's exactly what I mean. I've already bought the copyright of the novel. I'll start this project when Meryl is free."

"Meryl?" Anna Wintour was slightly taken aback, "Meryl Streep?"

"right."

"She wants to play me?"

Tang En laughed, "That's right!"

Meryl Streep's fame is too great to be compared to Anna Wintour. This 50-year-old fashionista immediately showed uncontrollable excitement on her face, "If this is the case, That would be great! Mr. Walker, if Meryl really stars, "Vogue" is willing to cooperate with it, and I am even willing to serve as a consultant myself."

Tang En said: "Don't worry, this movie involves a big man like you. We will definitely strive for excellence in the choice of cast. In addition to Meryl Streep, I also intend to arrange Anne Hathaway Go in. You know Anne Hathaway, don't you?"

"Oh, of course!" Anna Wintour would not let any of the female stars go, and then looked at the female companion next to Tang En, and couldn't help but shine, "Who is this beautiful girl?"

Tang En didn't hide anything, and introduced: "My girlfriend, Gal Gadot."

"Hello, Ms. Wintour, "Vogue" magazine, I must read every issue, it is my fashion enlightenment." Gal Gadot bowed slightly, elegant and graceful, with a respectful temperament.

There is an inherent elegance and nobility.

Anna Wintour has seen too many fashion models, and her eyes are about to light up, "Not bad, not bad! Gail, you have the potential to become a top model in the world!"

"Huh?" Gal Gadot was taken aback.

Twain was also a little uncertain. Gal Gadot's temperament was not like that of a model. Her smile was too heartwarming, and it didn't fit the eccentric mainstream of the fashion industry.

"She is still young, and she will return to Israel to serve in the military after a while. The matter of career planning... Let's talk about it later."

"Oh, that's a pity." Anna Wintour sighed.

Tang En changed the subject, "What are the exhibits today?"

Anna Wintour said with a smile: "It is mainly the gowns designed by the French designer Yves Saint Laurent in the 1970s and 1980s, as well as some famous designer Karl Lagerfeld who are still in the mainstream of fashion today. Chanel dresses, 108 pieces in total."

After auctioning these 108 exhibits, at least 50 million US dollars can be raised.

The process of the charity gala is that the guests first appreciate the 108 artworks in the exhibition hall at close range, and the whole process will last about 45-60 minutes.

Then, the guests returned to their seats and began to raise their placards for the auction.

Anna Wintour was the main person in charge of the party. She didn't have time to accompany her throughout, but she arranged for her assistant, Jayden Brooke.

This is a man, Gerry is angry, more than a woman.

Accompanied by him throughout the process, he introduced the background, value and artistic connotation of each exhibited dress to Dunn and Gal Gadot.

Tang En was a little bored and asked, "Why don't you find some models to wear these clothes?"

Jayden Brooke said: "These gifts are treasures of decades, and it would be a waste to wear them on models."

Tang En was a little disappointed.

If it was worn by a model, maybe he would be more interested.

Jayden Brook took a deep look at Tang En, as if he had noticed something, and said with a smile: "Mr. Walker, I have many friends in the industry, and they are all excellent models. If you are interested, after the dance is over, I can arrange it for you."

He didn't know that Gal Gadot was Tang En's girlfriend, and he thought she was an ordinary female companion, so he had no scruples about speaking.

Tang En frowned slightly, and said in a calm tone: "No need."

Jayden Brook blurted out: "It's okay, I can advance you on behalf of Vogue for their remuneration. Anna has specifically told me that we are willing to make friends like you."

Tang En glanced at him, feeling confused.

The gay world, I really can't understand it!

I am Dunn Walker, the sixth richest person in the world on the Forbes list!

Net worth tens of billions of dollars!

Depend on!

I'm short of that little money?

This brain circuit is really amazing.

However, Tang En also heard something from Jayden Brooke's words, and asked, "Remuneration? How much is the remuneration in the modeling industry?"

"Dividing people, a big man like you..."

"No, no, I'm talking about the general market."

Jayden Brook said: "If it is a new model, generally speaking, it is 2,000 US dollars, a meal."

Tang En blinked, "A meal?"

Jaden Brook lowered his voice and said, "It's just to accompany some rich bosses to dinner. The usual time limit for this kind of work is 1-2 hours. The requirements for models are high-heeled shoes, short skirts, elegant manners, fluent English, and being able to Accept the natural intimacy of conversation."

Natural intimacy?

Tang En was very funny.

This statement is also graceful enough.

"And then?" Dunn was far more interested in this topic than the dresses in the glass showcase.

Gal Gadot didn't want to participate, and just happened to see Leonardo and Gisele Bundchen and ran over to be with them.

Without Gal Gadot, Jayden Brook was even more relaxed, and said with a smile: "Next, there will be some models with excellent conditions and a certain reputation. They will attend various high-end parties, and even We will also participate in the Vanity Fair party after the Oscars, as well as the parties at international film festivals such as Cannes and Venice."

"What about the price?"

"If you attend a Vanity Fair party, it costs US$50,000 a night; if it's Cannes, it costs US$30,000 a night; film festivals in Venice, Rome, Berlin and other places have less influence, and the opening price is usually around US$10,000 to US$20,000."

Tang En nodded, "Even if it's 10,000 dollars a night, the price is not too low."

He has participated in the rave parties organized by Leonardo many times, which are filled with all kinds of long-legged models for him to choose.

I don't know how much to ask.

Even if it costs $10,000 a night, the rave party will cost two to three hundred thousand dollars.

Jayden Brook whispered again: "This is the previous market, but now a group of people have appeared, breaking the rules."

"oh?"

"This price is aimed at some excellent models, and they do meet this value. However, there are some girls who pretend to be actors, models, or fashionistas, and often attend such occasions to seduce the rich. The service content is more and the scale is larger. This leads to more and more chaos in the market, and even poisonous and hallucinogenic drugs do not matter, Russian roulette can also be played.”

"What? Russian Roulette?"

This was the first time Tang En heard of this word.

Jaden Brook hesitated and explained a few words in a low voice.

Tang En's face changed very abnormally.

Nima, why does it sound more and more like Haitian Shengyan?

It's abominable!

This not only spoils the atmosphere and tradition of the fashion circle, but may even implicate a large number of professional models and affect their financial resources.

No wonder the modeling industry is becoming more and more difficult to mix. Wild models and outsiders have become moths that ruin the market atmosphere.

Tang En had a sympathetic expression, and secretly planned in his heart: "Damn, I need to find an opportunity to talk to Leonardo about this matter, so that when he holds a carnival party in the future, he should pay attention to choosing a reputable brokerage company to make connections. Don't find those peripheral wild models."

Models work part-time to earn some tips, which is understandable.

But the peripheral wild models are too much, playing Russian roulette?

This is like using yourself as a toilet!

This is no longer a question of shamelessness, of keeping the bottom line.

This breaks the boundaries between humans and animals.

This kind of woman must be as far away as possible!

If you take the initiative to come to the door, you have to kick it out!

Jayden Brooke added: "However, these are the bottom after all. The real supermodels are all sky-high prices. For example, the supermodels of Victoria's Secret, and several of our "Vogue" cover supermodels."

"How many?"

"$2 million a night!"

"so tall?"

Tang En exclaimed.

Jayden Brook nodded solemnly: "That's right, it's that tall!"

Tang En was slightly taken aback, feeling a little grateful.

He also hired two angel supermodels, Angela Lindwall and Karolina Kurkova, with an annual expenditure of nearly 10 million US dollars per person!

It's an astronomical figure!

Especially after Tang En went to Japan for a while, he felt that it was not worth it.

Japanese girls are well-behaved, obedient, safe, secretive, and clean. For example, Yu Aoi, who gives her 10,000 US dollars of pocket money every month makes her very happy.

In contrast, spending huge sums of money on Victoria's Secret supermodels...was such a waste!

But hearing what Jayden Brook said, Tang En felt much more balanced.

It seems that the annual "package buyout" fee of 10 million US dollars is not too expensive.

If people sell on a per-view basis, they can earn 2 million US dollars overnight!
