Chapter 345 I don't understand
Beauty comes at a price. The beauty that Victoria's Secret angels exchanged for high prices, coupled with the strong capital given by God, and the appropriate publicity and promotion, make them not only Victoria's Secret angels, but also become angels in the eyes of a lot of the public.
Everyone likes sexy and beautiful female models, but Duke has always distinguished priorities, and women will always be behind their careers.
From the brief conversation that day, Duke could feel that the young model Alessandra Ambrosho, who had just joined Victoria's Secret, was pleasing him. Perhaps the other party was determined to develop into the film industry, or perhaps it was just trying to pursue excitement.
However, these are not within Duke's considerations, and before the show jointly organized by Warner Bros. and Victoria's Secret, there is nothing more important than careful preparations.
Except for a few closed countries and regions, Duke wants the whole 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., Heidi Krum and Adriana Lima of Victoria's Secret walked into a studio in New York and publicly told reporters when they came out that they were participating in the audition for the Lord of the Rings trilogy!
On Thursday, paper media and news media were hyping the news. When Duke went to Victoria's Secret's office building, ○□ Chang○□ Feng○□ Wen○□ Xue, x publicly stated that he believed that Victoria's Secret Angels were most suitable for female elves...
On Friday, the New York Times and NBC TV's "Today Show" revealed that Lord of the Rings Studio has reached an agreement with senior executives of Victoria's Secret that Victoria's Secret Angels and models with close partnerships with Victoria's Secret will play the numerous elf characters in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and a photo has been exposed.
This photo has brought a lot of attention and aroused the envy, jealousy and hatred of countless men!
In the photo, Duke stood up, with more than a dozen long legs and thin waists, and beautiful and sexy models surrounded by them. Many media directly quoted the names set by the photographer Duke Rosenberg and his elves angels!
At the moment when the smoke of the North American summer season was gone, this triggered another round of movie attention frenzy!
On Friday afternoon, Time Warner and Victoria's Secret jointly held a press conference at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, announcing that the two sides will work closely together on the Lord of the Rings trilogy...
"The elf in Mr. Tolkien's paintings are elegant, agile, slender, handsome and charming."
Sitting on the interview stage, Duke showed off his heroic spirit of fighting against hundreds of reporters alone, "The angels are the most suitable actors for female elves, and there is no reason not to choose them. If you don't choose the angels with the most similar appearance to the elves, you will star in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, I think it's a crime..."
Heidi Krum also said a few words on behalf of the angel models. She has been so popular in recent years, and has been promptly recommended by public relations, so it is not difficult to deal with reporters.
"I'm so excited, all my sisters and I are so excited." She seemed really excited, with tremolo in her words. "The Lord of the Rings trilogy is an epic masterpiece that we never thought of being able to star in such a classic work. Duke is a great director, and we dream of appearing in his camera lens."
"Director Rosenberg, can you reveal more about the film?"
"Miss Krum, what roles will you play?"
"I heard that Mr. Trump will make a cameo appearance in the film, is this true?"
Despite the enthusiasm of reporters in the news hall, Duke and Heidi Krum left the stage at the right time. The revelations never ended in one go.
Jamie Johnson then said on behalf of Warner and Victoria's Secret that the Victoria's Secret Angels will set off from the Waldorf Hotel on Sunday and take the specific Victoria's Secret & Lord of the Rings plane and fly to New Zealand with Duke!
As soon as the press conference ended, the online naval army formed by Pani Kelis for Duke was dispatched. Countless related news and pictures raided major websites and forums across the United States at the fastest speed, like a plague.
The newly established tmz website under Warner is just gossiping. It also specially launched the stories that Duke and Victoria's Secret Angels have to tell...
He has been working for several days in a row. After this press conference, Duke's work has come to an end for a while. He can also take a good rest for a day to prepare for Sunday's super show.
Just returned to the lounge from the press room. Before Duke could even reminisce with Heidi Krum, Tinafei came to inform her that someone was waiting for him.
"She seems to be here to find you."
Taking the elevator to the floor where the suite is located, Tinafe reminded him as she walked, "I said you are 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 girl was standing in front of an oil painting, as if she was looking very seriously.
She was wearing an unusual grey T-shirt and denim shorts, with long brown curly hair casually tied into a ponytail behind her head, and a somewhat old New York Yankees baseball cap.
"Hi Nat."
Walking to her, Duke took the initiative to say hello, "Why have time to come today?"
"There are news about you in the media these days. I think your way of promoting movies is very interesting." Natalie Portman withdrew his gaze from the oil painting and turned to look at Duke. "I remember last time, you said that you would come to New York again to invite me to drink."
"I've been a little busy lately..." Duke gently patted his forehead, "I almost forgot about this."
He gestured to Tinafe, and the female assistant immediately left the suite, while Duke walked to the wine cabinet in the living room and flipped it around casually. He had no clear understanding of the wine, so he simply took a bottle of Bordeaux wine and two cups and put it on the bar.
"Please sit, Nat."
Duke opened the red wine and pointed to the high chair opposite the bar. Natalie walked over and sat on it. When Duke put the wine glass and poured in some red wine, she didn't say anything, picked up the wine glass and drank nearly half of it.
Looking at Natalie who put down the wine glass, Duke frowned. When he heard Tinafei talk about it, he felt strange. This was not the last time he wanted to fight back with words. What did the other party take the initiative to do to him? The two of them were not friends at all.
Although Natalie looked calm on the surface, she seemed to have something happened in her movements.
Picking up the red wine, Duke poured Natalie again, poured some in his cup, and took the initiative to touch the cup with her, "Cheers!"
"Cheers!" Natalie drank half again.
"Nat?" Duke looked at him, and Natalie raised her face, "Hmm?"
Duke thought for a while and asked, "Can you know what happened?"
"Do you know, Duke?" Natalie slowly turned the cup in her hand and lowered her eyelids slightly. "Everything has changed since "The Ghost Threat" was released."
"It's normal." Duke said meaningfully, "You have become the world-renowned Queen Amidala."
"I'm Natalie Portman..." Natalie continued to emphasize, "Not anyone else!"
Duke shrugged, not intending to get involved in such issues.
Natalie took off the Yankees baseball cap and threw it on the bar, sorting out her long drooping brown hair. "It takes a price to become famous. I have a real feeling during this period. Everyone regards me as Queen Amidala, thinks I have become an arrogant star, and takes the initiative to distance myself from me, even a few of my friends are no exception."
"It's not surprising." Duke picked up the wine glass and ran into her again. "Every stage of life will develop, alienate or make friends with you."
"So do you?" Natalie asked with a sip of red wine.
Duke shook his head, "I have few friends, but friends such as Zach Schneider, John Schwartzman, Leonardo DiCaprio, Erin Lauder and Sophia Coppola are all qualified to have an equal conversation with anyone."
The brown eyes kept turning, Natalie seemed to be considering Duke's words, perhaps because she figured it out, and suddenly changed the topic, "I passed the interview at Harvard University and will go to Cambridge City soon."
"Congratulations!" Duke took the initiative to raise his glass.
"Thank you." Natalie drank it all in one go.
While Duke poured wine again, Natalie continued the topic just now, "Harvard's admission notice has caused me a lot of trouble, and I don't know who to ask for advice."
"Your parents." Duke gave the answer without thinking.
Natalie shook her head, "They can't solve it, because the trouble comes from my family and my father."
Speaking of this, Natalie frowned slightly, picked up the wine glass and took another sip, "Was Mrs. Leah opposed when you chose Hollywood?"
"No, my mother just reminded me that this road is difficult." Duke's finger slowly stroked across the wine glass, and remembered his mother's seemingly cold but actually gambling support. A smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth, "And my mother secretly gave me enough support. Whether it was encouragement or funds, without her, there would be no me who I am today."
Duke was not stupid, and gradually guessed something. Seeing Natalie silent, he asked, "Your father objected to your continued career as an actor?"
"He asked me to give up as an actor."
After rubbing his blushing face, Natalie drank all the red wine in the cup again, her voice carrying the young man's resistance struggle and resentment, "Dad thinks I should become a doctor in the future, rather than going to the Hollywood Vanity Fair. He has been putting pressure on me recently to give up on acting and ask me to focus all my energy on my studies!"
"I can't figure it out!"
Probably because I had been suppressed for too long, and the alcoholism gradually erupted, Natalie's calmness disappeared, and Qingxu gradually became excited, "Why can't I pursue my dreams like other girls? Why did I have to eat vegetarian food since I was a child? Why did I have to force abstinence? Why..." (To be continued...)
