Chapter 787： Don't bother

With Eric's detailed understanding of the world's economic trends in the next two decades, it is a breeze to get Giselle to get huge amounts of wealth.

But if you simply have a huge amount of money, you will only be called a nouveau riche. Therefore, while possessing wealth, the most important thing is to obtain the power and influence that match your personal body.

In the original time, Giselle was awarded the title of 'Ji Niangnien', not only because her personal annual income far surpassed that of other supermodels, but also because Giselle is the top and best in the new generation of supermodels. Chasing the one that is respected.

Giselle's annual income far beyond the contemporary supermodel, in addition to her personal savvy business mind, is also the result of her personal influence.

Eric did not completely change the meaning of Giselle's life trajectory. He just wanted to let Giselle go higher and further on the original road, gaining influence far beyond the previous life and becoming the real 'Ji Queen Xaar, not just a fan of the giraffe.

Of course, looking at the young girl who is still under 16 years old like a jade, Eric knows that this development game will take many years.

However, Eric himself is only twenty-six years old this year, and time is not a problem for him and Giselle.

At this time, Eric has reached the peak of the career that ordinary people can hardly reach. Occasionally, it is a kind of pastime to cultivate a few legends that ordinary people can talk about.

After all, what the words say: Do not do boring things, the difficulty has a life, life is really lonely like snow.

It was impossible for Giselle and Alexander to perceive the boring thoughts in Eric's mind. Hearing that he was going to talk about his own affairs, Giselle got up and was sitting in danger. Even Alexander was infected by this atmosphere and could not help but sit up straight. body.

Eric also retracted his thoughts and said to Giselle: "If you want to do more, first of all, you have to wait until the age of 18, and you have full independence. Otherwise, many things will be limited. However, these two years It can just give you more time to enrich yourself, and by the way, get recognition from the fashion world. Well, at least you must first get the title of supermodel."

Giselle nodded obediently, but Alexander was secretly screaming.

Supermodels, they enter this circle. The goal of this life is not to become a supermodel. Giselle can get it all in two years.

In the fashion world, to become a supermodel, first of all, you must have a natural body, and the appearance is not even the most important. This point, Giselle has already met the conditions.

The next step is to get the contract of the model agency.

The world's top major brokerage companies have very sophisticated model promotion mechanisms and rich fashion resources. A girl entering these companies may not become a supermodel, but if they can't enter these top brokerage companies, the hope of becoming a supermodel is even more rampant. .

Giselle's current img model agency is not as good as elite, but it is also one of the top brokerage companies in the industry. In this respect, img does not have the shortcomings that will drag Giselle's hind legs.

Having an innate appearance and a top model agency is just the beginning of a girl's move to a supermodel.

Subsequent competition is truly a thousand-strong horse crossing the single-wood bridge. After having the platform of the brokerage company, the girls have to participate in various model beauty contests, and try to find the fashion magazine layout, win the favor of fashion big coffee, and land on the famous brand show, the whole In the process, for all kinds of opportunities, pure meat and meat, even the most worthless price, and in the end, the real ability to climb the summit is absolutely nothing.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything.

If you have a strong backstage, everything becomes much easier at once.

Therefore, this world is so capricious, so unfair, it is useless to bite. Even the ‘Lafayette’ Karl Lagerfeld, who hates the world’s fat man being ruined by humanity, has to take a model that looks like a mediocre figure to go to the Chanel conference.

"After this weekend, you will return to New York. The performance training class will not be used anymore." Eric looked at the email just now, picked up the phone number next to the manuscript paper and handed it to Giselle. "I just contacted Tina Brown. She happened to be in New York recently. After you go back, Tina will take you to see Anna Wintour and arrange for you to cover the vogue magazine."

Throughout the Condé Nast system, Tina Brown was even higher than Anna Wintour, and Anna Wintour’s vogue magazine mimicked Tina Brown’s philosophy of running Vanity Fair.

After Tina Brown left the Vanity Fair as the editor-in-chief of Yahoo! Portal, the connections and influences within Condé Nast are still there. After all, Condé Nast’s top executives will not have a big new media with their own group. The platform's strong woman broke off the relationship. Just past the "Vanity Fair" party dinner, Eric's reason for the "Forrest Gump" and other crews to attend the show, is also the result of Tina Brown's call at the old club, specially called to match.

At this point, it is not too difficult for her to help get a copy of the vogue magazine cover.

These world-class fashion magazines may be able to maintain a high-profile attitude in front of ordinary people, but for Eric, it is nothing more than a small person.

Although the relationship between Firefly and Condé Nast is not as close as the Hearst Group, the cooperation between the two sides has never been cut off. After all, the advertising campaigns such as the Firefly Group have always been the target of any paper media group. Eric did not have Anna Wintour's contact information, otherwise she would call directly and Anna Wintour could not reject Eric's request.

Eric’s understatement, the two girls’ hearts rose.

"Vogue", that's a world-class ‘fashion Bible,’ and the average model can be on the cover of vogue magazine for a lifetime.

Alexander looked at Giselle with a wide eye, and even wanted to say something to Eric: Take my meat.

Giselle was more excited about his chest, and some asked with no confidence: "Eric, can I really put on the cover of "vogue"? I still, um, I am less than sixteen."

Eric nodded and said: "Of course, I have never heard of the rules of "vogue" when I was under 16 years old."

The thoughts in Eric's mind are also very clear. Since you want to cover the magazine, you must choose the best.

As long as Giselle can be on the cover of "vogue", he will soon be known in the fashion world. Various fashion show invitations and extensive media attention will follow, which is much more effective than step by step.

Giselle’s excitement was not so easy to calm down, he said: "But..."

“There is nothing wrong with it,” Eric interrupted Giselle’s words. “This thing also helps your brokerage company to help. In addition, the next few months, related models. Training should not be pulled down. Although I can help you build a platform, if you don’t work hard enough, everything is just futile."

"Well, I will," Giselle nodded quickly.

Eric said again: "In addition, learn French again, at least to the extent of daily communication. I will arrange for you to attend Paris Fashion Week in September this year."

In the four fashion weeks, Paris Fashion Week is the highest style. The new conferences of the world's top luxury brands such as Prada, Dior, Versace and Givenchy will basically choose to be held in Paris Fashion Week. The show of Paris Fashion Week is also the best stage for the advanced model of advanced models.

When Giselle nodded, Eric was about to continue talking, and the phone on the desktop rang.

Eric took a look at the phone and was a strange number. He was connected: "This is Williams."

"..."

The other side of the phone said a few words, Eric smiled and said: "Hey, Anna, good morning, Tina has told you about things?"

Sitting opposite Giselle and Alexander, a name emerged, Anna Wintour.

Eric looked at Giselle, who was again restrained, and smiled and continued with Anna Wintour: "She is Giselle Bundchen, sixteen, um..." Eric said. A gesture was made to Giselle, and the girl immediately noticed and stood up. Eric looked at her and said, "About five feet and ten inches (178cm), so the phone is definitely not clear, wait for me to let img give you a detailed information in the past."

"..."

On the other side, I didn’t know what to say. Eric frowned slightly. “In August, August was a bit late. I hope that before the fashion week in September, she will have two or three months of accumulated popularity. So it’s best to be before July...what, girl version, Anna, you don’t want to perfuse me.”

Giselle has been listening to the two people's conversations. Seeing that Eric's tone is a little heavier, she picks up herself and wants to open the round: the girl version is OK.

Of course, Giselle just thinks about it, she can't interrupt the conversation between the two.

Under Eric's insistence, Anna Wintour only slightly hesitated, and promised to arrange Giselle to board the cover of "vogue" in June. As for the original cover girl, it is not Eric's concern. It's a thing.

This result is not surprising at all. After all, the cover of the first issue magazine is only a trivial matter to Eric’s influence. Anna Wintour will not hesitate between how to choose. Determined.

You know, in the five famous women's fashion magazines, "vogue" belongs to the Condé Nast Group, while the other four magazines, "elle", "bazaar", "co**opolitan" and "ma-day e-claire", although influence Less than "vogue", but both belong to the Hearst Group, none of these magazines are always ready to replace the "vogue" industry status.

With the cooperation between espn and ae TV network, the close relationship between Hearst Group and Firefly Group is self-evident. If Eric and even the Firefly Group are pushed to the Hearst media camp because of the small issue of the magazine cover, it is Anna Wintour's major work mistakes. Of course, Anna Wintour also knows that even if she really refuses, Eric’s chances of using it are extremely low, but she will not take risks in such a small matter.

After negotiating this matter, the topic was immediately relaxed, and there was a good idea to make a relationship with Eric. Anna Wintour’s words were very hot, and I promised to contact the top fashion photographer Steve Messer. Personally fencing the cover of Giselle.

Eric hung up and Giselle whispered, "Eric, are you just talking about Steve Messer?"

Eric nodded because Eric had also learned about some of the top fashion photographers because of the many contacts with the fashion circle in the past two years.

Steve Messer is a fashion photographer who is very good at shooting women. The woman under the photographer's lens always gives a special mystery and charm, like a group of black cats walking in the dark.

Giselle got a definitive answer, his face flashed with excitement, but it quickly dimmed, and the little hand stalked indiscriminately. Nene said: "Eric, that, it would be expensive to invite Steve Messer to take photos. The company may not have the money."

"Reassure, I will let people send me the bill," Eric said, and handed the phone to Giselle. "You can call Tina Brown after returning to New York. Now call Give your agent and ask him to send your information to the headquarters of Vogue magazine."

Giselle nodded and took the phone. Some embarrassed got up and went to the side to make a phone call.

Alexander, who has been paying attention to all this quietly, finally said: "Eric, I..."

Eric packed up the newspaper on the table and said casually: "You are still young, wait another two years."

Alexander fiddled with the fingers entwined in front of him and whispered: "I can go to the Vogue Girl Edition."

"Don't make trouble, push both of you at once, Anna will be crazy."

......

After the first day of the box office of 3.6 million US dollars, on the weekend of two days, "Hong Fan District" won 4.16 million US dollars and 3.55 million US dollars respectively, the first weekend of three days, the cumulative box office of 11.31 million US dollars.

At the same time as the top three-day box office champions on the weekend, "Hong Fan District" has once again attracted a lot of media attention. In the heart of the new line, the new line will continue to release Jack in the company. Cooperation with the news of the new film.

After the weekend, Giselle and Alexander returned to New York, and Eric was also preparing to fly to the Bahamas to personally investigate the location of the Royal Casino.

However, before leaving, Eric had to personally ask about the issue of the Seven Deadly Sins.

It was found that Paramount attempted to link his own "First-Level Fear" with the "Seven Deadly Sins", and the Eric was not prepared to intervene. The new line's release team also responded quickly.

However, Paramount’s media public relations direction is very clear, that is, to provoke the outstanding performance of the two great villains of Kay Speysey and Edward Norton, to attract fans’ curiosity about "First Fear". .

Paramount is also clearly aware that in the overall quality of the film, "First-Level Fear" is in no way comparable to the wonderful plot setting of "Seven Deadly Sins".

However, the new line of counterattacks is precisely focused on the overall quality of the film, which is in the middle of Paramount's mind, because after the previous preview, "first-level fear" reputation is not as good as "seven sins", this is already The facts recognized by the film industry have repeatedly emphasized this point by the new media public relations team and will not make things worse.

In any case, as long as the "level one fear" and "seven sins" are linked, let the fans produce the thought of comparing the two films, Paramount's marketing is a great success.

Under normal circumstances, the two films together to speculate on the topic, will certainly produce a synergy of one plus one greater than two, bringing the total box office upgrade.

However, this time the situation is different. The Easter schedule in North America has not yet been developed. The number of weekly movie attendants and the total box office fluctuations during the Easter season will not be too large.

Prior to this, after the vigorous promotion of the new line, the heat of the "Seven Deadly Sins" was already very high. Therefore, the synergy effect of the "Seven Deadly Sins" and "First-Level Fear", although the total box office of the two films is higher than the original time, but the ultimate benefit is likely to be only "level one fear."

Affected by the "first-level fear" to divide more box office shares, the total box office of "Seven Deadly Sins" is likely to be lower than the previous generation.

The original "Seven Deadly Sins" North American box office, just broke through 100 million US dollars, which obviously has the result of the original new line operation.

Because the box office figure of 100 million US dollars is an important watershed for most movies. The box office broke through 100 million US dollars, and the film can enter the ranks of classic movies. In this respect, even if a movie box office stops at 99 million, compared with 100 million US dollars, the feeling is very different.

It can be imagined that if it is affected by "First-Level Fear", the "Seven Deadly Sins" North American box office failed to break through 100 million US dollars, perhaps only a few million less, but the film was distributed in overseas markets and subsequent video tapes, etc. It’s totally different. You have 80 million or 90 million box office, but you haven’t broken through 100 million. Fans will only think that this movie is good, and it’s hard to produce a classic style.

The original "Seven Deadly Sins" overseas box office of 220 million US dollars, the release of video tapes is to make the new line earned full of pots. It is no exaggeration to say that the "Seven Deadly Sins" North American box office reached a figure of 100 million US dollars, which played a very big role in promoting it.

Therefore, if this version of the "Seven Deadly Sins" box office failed to break through 100 million US dollars, the ultimate loss will not be just a few hundred million dollars in the North American box office.

Eric had some helplessly watching for a few days. Before leaving Los Angeles, he finally called Kasenberg. The two discussed in detail and determined the marketing strategy of countering "First-Level Fear". He was relieved. Landed on the plane to the Bahamas. (To be continued.)
