MTL - Psychological Control-Chapter 8
After the hard-shot shooting, everyone returned to the supermodel house for the night. The next day will be the time when the results are announced. On the couch in the living room, I can hear people who have n’t grabbed a bed over and over. Even those sixteen people who sleep on comfortable beds will lose sleep. Right.
Tomorrow's elimination will determine whether they will remain in the game, and if the person sleeping in the bed is eliminated now, it will be seen as a huge irony.
Chris' eyes were like a wolf in the forest under the refraction of the moonlight coming through the glass door from the living room. I looked at him and fell asleep in his eyes staring at me.
Waking up the next morning, the models were notified that another catwalk will be tonight, and this catwalk will be a challenge. The elimination of the national supermodel is based on three aspects, the judges' evaluation of hard photos, the score of the challenge, and social media voting.
Because the results will be announced at night, there will be choking pressure in the supermodel house all day. I nestled on the sofa and watched the new book I bought before entering the supermodel house.
"High IQ crime?" Chris cut the coffee twice from the kitchen and put a cup on the coffee table in front of me. "The books you read are very strange. You saw books related to psychology in your luggage yesterday. What was your major at Stanford University?"
I put down the book, picked up the coffee he brought and sipped, "Dept. of Psychology, I thought you knew. I minored in criminal psychology and went to Eastern University to listen to a criminology course while waiting for the results of the election I was suddenly interested and bought this book. "
Chris blinked his eyes blank, even with his sharp eyebrows and deep outlines that made him look like a bad boy.
Just as Chris and I talked about his wandering experience, Jamie, who was disgusted by Alice, came over to join us. Nina was chatting with the girls in the garden in order to be part of the female model's circle.
When I introduced the most amazing criminal of the twentieth century to the place where Neil Caffrey appeared, the sun began to set in again. Maybe if I go to the city center again this time, I should find a nearest bookstore and buy another book. I have to buy a thicker one this time, otherwise the day when I do n’t have to do anything will be half finished.
I haven't had such a leisurely and comfortable life in two years since leaving the psychiatric hospital where Brian has been in prison for more than ten years. Busy every day in various working places, even a little uncomfortable for a while.
Models boarded the bus under the arrangement of the staff, and the bus took everyone to an unknown destination. Everyone on the bus discussed with each other exactly who would be eliminated and how many opportunities they would have left.
Chris opened his mouth uneasily and wanted to say that I was choked in my throat with a gag. Jamie, who had been with us for a day, saw that I didn't want to talk, and because he couldn't talk to Chris, he turned into Marvin's brother company.
Soon the bus stopped in front of a luxurious hotel. The hotel is very balanced with Romanesque architecture. There is a catwalk on the right side of the hotel. There are long banners hanging on the ten-meter-high wall Conspicuous guess sign.
This is a catwalk for the guess brand. After the models stood in front of the runway, Taylor stepped out from behind the curtain behind the runway. The girls screamed, and the boys also took the opportunity to coax the atmosphere according to the staff's shooting requirements.
"Good evening ladies and gentlemen!" Taylor approached us with open arms. "Ready to participate in the first season of the National Supermodel Men and Women Showdown?"
After a scream, she began to talk about the most familiar line before the elimination, "I bet you must be curious about what the award will be for the champion. First, cross-page pictures of famous magazines. Second, with the model company Sign up. Last, but by no means the lightest prize, and a $ 100,000 contract with guess. "
I was surprised when I heard the last item. The advertising contract with guess was something I hadn't thought of before, as this contract weighed more than all the final rewards of the previous quarter. Becoming a model for guess means that you have entered the top ranks of models.
Taylor recorded the excited expressions of the female models on the camera, and then continued, "Let's get back to the truth, you will participate in a guess's fashion show. However, there are only sixteen positions in the backstage."
The models screamed and cheered with excitement in the first sentence, but fell silent in the second sentence. The pressure was on everyone.
"If it's not scary enough," Taylor turned and stretched out his hand with a smile. "The president of guess will watch the show in person." A slightly stout middle-aged man walked out of the background.
He doesn't look very eye-catching, but his value can be seen from the price of his clothes. He followed Taylor's opening remarks, but I noticed that in the example of the guess model, he mentioned all female models. I know that if there is no accident in this supermodel competition, the female model will still win the championship.
Aware of this, I was uncomfortable, but even if I could not make any changes to this situation, I would not stop my challenge. The championship prize includes a contract with guess, and the guess naturally needs to look at the model in person, and I'm not surprised.
I can even predict that in the final round of the championship final, the official opinion of guess is the key to directly determining the outcome.
Therefore, all I can do now is to seize the opportunity and show my best strength to this decision-maker. The president guessed out after the opening remarks, and Taylor began to announce the names of the people who were promoted in turn.
"The first name I'm going to call is," Taylor paused here before shouting, "Alyssa!"
Alyssa is said to be a prosperous and wealthy girl. The traditional Germanic people have nothing to do with her profound eyebrows and modelling experience. She issued her first pass.
Immediately after, "Mike." The ice cream man discovered by Taylor may not be among the sixteen. Regardless of his modeling skills, at least his strong features are full of masculinity, and his strong body is similar to Rob It's just that Rob is black and Mike is Jewish.
"Rena." Miss Black Beauty. "Ashton ..." "Alice ..."
After two familiar names, "Dan." A black and white mixed-race male model, one of Marvin's brothers was added to the name. Compared with Ashton's facial features, Dan's face is more square and facial features are more masculine.
"Nina ..." "Brian ..." When the number was exactly half, I was called by name. I patted Chris, who was clutching my shoulders comfortably, and walked beside Taylor to hug Nina and Alice who were already standing there.
"Jiana." This girl has no sense of presence, but she has a different face shape than the ordinary female model. Her jawbone is wide and a square cheek, which makes her very unique in hard photos.
"Marvin." Marvin's popularity was as high as ever. Although most of his brothers were still under pressure, they still cheered him.
"Shellaire." Another black woman differs from Rena in that her features are more tense than Rena's compactness.
"Jamie." My little Christian lamb walked towards me thankfully, of course he didn't forget to ask Alice for a hug first.
"Beyonka." A girl of Jewish origin could easily find her from other female models at a glance.
"Phil." A strong man with a beard and thick chest hair but unexpectedly soft eyes. He is not a traditional model, and he is expected to be a gimmick made by this show. Because the audience of the show, there will always be people who like luxuriant hair.
It was his last turn, and Chris's name was still unknown. Chris had anxiety, and he put his hand to his mouth and bit his fingertips. I looked around at the rest of the male model, and let go.
Chris is the male model that I think has the most potential among the rest, and his story has been specially recorded by the camera. He has spent so much energy on him. I do n’t believe that the American supermodel will give up on him so quickly .
"Conani." It can be said that Conani is my favorite appearance in the female model. She has Cuban descent and always presents elegant temperament in hard photos. The only question is whether she can manage other temperament styles.
After a few seconds of silence, "Chris." The eight men and eight women's promotion quota ended.
Chris grew his eyes instantly when he heard his name, and I even had the illusion that his pupils tightened, and he put his hands around his mouth and walked slowly to me, covering his face with both hands. I had no choice but to take the mentally stimulated little wolf's head in his arms and caress his back to soothe his emotions.
Marvin's brothers only entered two people, Dan and Phil, so when Chris' name was called, the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Marvin stepped forward to say goodbye to his lost friend. Chris was clearly dark, although his face was cold, but the corners of his raised mouth and curved eyebrows could still be seen from the gap between his fingers covering his face.
I don't know when Chris has confronted Marvin, but Marvin has some association with me, so whenever Marvin appears next to me, he will follow me for a moment. As long as the hair points are different, I still thought I saw another Jamie.
Childish possessiveness. Although naive, it is also well understood that the only person who can talk to him in the supermodel house is only me, except for the gentle girl, Nina, and I still won't cause everyone to coax.
After the announcement of the promotion quota, there was no time to breathe for everyone. Taylor immediately announced the content of this challenge.
"The end of the runway is under my feet," Taylor pointed to the carpet with the guess logo under his feet, "but its beginning ..." Tyler turned and raised his hand to the top of the ten-story building, with The banner of the guess sign has been connected to the roof of that building.
The girls screamed. When the demonstration personnel face down and the whole person walked down 90 degrees perpendicular to the wall, the calm boys couldn't help yelling.
Chris grew up and looked at the staff's demonstration in surprise. I have never done anything like this, and now I can only look forward to when I was dropped on the coercion like a bait, Don't be too rigid.
Nina first responded and asked a question that all female models care about, "Are we going to walk down in high heels?"
Looking into the eyes of all the girls praying, Taylor said without hesitation: "Yes, the female models need to wear high heels."
It seems that while the girls dominate the fashion world, they also add difficulty levels to themselves. High heels, makeup, long hair, and boys never pay attention to these.
In the dressing room, the makeup artists put light makeup on the models. Each model has a bed in the latest season of guess on the bed, and a denim jacket on the outside. Because it started to rain lightly outside, we were asked to take off our jackets after we walked from the top of the building to the ground, and finally displayed the clothes on the catwalk on the flat floor.
Unfortunately, Nina and I won the first group. The rain has turned into a downpour, and the temperature dropped very quickly. My hands and feet started to stiffen. When I stood upstairs, the audience downstairs saw transparent umbrellas from this height, holding transparent umbrellas.
The judges were divided into two groups. Taylor, Norma, and Jonathan watched the vertical image of the catwalk on the roof of the monitor. The image on the monitor flipped the model with the vertical wall facing the ground. It's like an ordinary catwalk picture. The other group of Rob and Andy watched the overall effect with the president of guess on the ground from a normal perspective.
When the staff told me that the safety rope had been fastened, Nina and I stood on the edge of the roof. When you stand in that position, even if you tell you it's safe, looking at that depth will still make people illusion. Taking a step is an abyss.
I pushed half of my feet out of the edge, and my body began to tilt slowly to a vertical angle, just then I heard Nina on my left scream. 2k novel reading network
