Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 109 Meet in Los Angeles (please order first)
Xiang Yang and Liu Qianqian listened intently.

Fortunately for Liu Qianqian, she could see why when she read the script. After all, she had been exposed to these things.

Xiang Yang was completely confused.

What is written here? This is.
When he came into contact with the script for the first time, it was difficult for him to accept this form of text carrier.

He prefers novels that describe scenes through imaginary scenes, and the reality of the script made his head hurt a little.

He can understand it and understand the characters' psychological changes and language expressions, but it just looks awkward.This feeling is like the outline of a familiar thing slowly emerging in your mind, but you always feel that something is wrong with it.

"Xiang, this is normal. You can take a copy later and let Liu explain it to you." Seeing Xiang Yang frowning and saying nothing, Bill Nye said comfortingly.

Xiang Yang raised his head and looked at him and smiled: "Well, it's okay. But I'm not an actor, so it's not a big problem for me if I don't understand."

Liu Qianqian heard this, frowned for a few seconds, and then returned her attention to the script.

"By the way, how are the clothes?" Xiang Yang grinned and quickly changed the subject.

Under the dining table, he leaned forward and reached out his hand quietly, wanting to rub Liu Qianqian's lubricated yoga pants and apologize for saying the wrong thing.

Unexpectedly, Liu Qianqian moved slightly, causing his hand to fly away.

"It's very good. Galeries Lafayette is filming a biopic about Chanel in the 20s, and he said he could lend us a batch of clothes."

Karl, the producer, answered the question with a smile.

Upon hearing that Karl Lagerfeld had come forward, Xiang Yang felt much relieved. He coughed slightly to cover up his frustration at having his little thoughts discovered, and said with a smile:
"That's good. If he is willing to help, the preparations will go much smoother."

This is not a waste of words to say.

Many people will stubbornly believe that it is not difficult to reproduce the costumes of the 1920s. If you have seen the costumes of the characters in some early black and white movies, you will naturally know what is going on.

But this is a wrong perception.

In fact, the influence of early movie costumes on fashion design was very limited, and the designs between the two were completely different. This is especially obvious in Hollywood.

Or to be more precise, whether it is in a movie or a still photo, no matter how detailed the clothing details are in the remaining image data, its value as a reference is not high.

Because this kind of costume was carefully adjusted by the film costume designer at the time and carefully lit before being photographed in order to be more photogenic and look better in the camera or photos.

They were very different from the real everyday clothes of the time.

"He said that after the sorting is completed, his assistant will send a detailed information for you to refer to first." Bill said.

"Ah, I'll get it then."

If Xiang Yang prepares these things, it won't be difficult, but if someone helps, the person who helps is the 'Lafayette' in the fashion industry, so he naturally accepts it happily.

It is better to do less than to do more. Just check it carefully after you get the information.

Just when he was planning this, Liu Qianqian basically saw it.

After glancing at Xiang Yang with her cold eyes, she smiled and nodded to Damien, who cast a curious look, and said:

"I'm just an actor, and I haven't had much exposure to Hollywood scripts. However, I have always found this story very interesting, and so does the script. But many of the lines in it are very professional, and I still need to study hard."

"That's not right. You can ask Xiang Yang to explain the script to you at the same time. After all, we need his guidance on our current costumes. I hope that the details of the characters' costumes can better inform the costumes. Characterization serves.”

After Damien finished speaking, he cast his eyes on Xiang Yang.

Bill also means the same thing. One of them is an actor who can read and understand the script, and the other is a costume director who also understands the history and Western art of that era.

In the entire team, except for the JCE family, no one is more relaxed than them.

"Yeah, okay." When Liu Qianqian heard this, she just glanced at Xiang Yang. She still hoped from the bottom of her heart that Xiang Yang understood what kind of character she was portraying.

Hearing positive feedback from people you like and care about is actually a very important thing.But what Xiang Yang said just now made her feel that she was somewhat ignored.

"Uh, no problem." Xiang Yang nodded, "Is there anything else? If not, I will take Liu for a walk."

"Don't leave in a hurry. It won't delay your date today." Damien, who is about the same age as Xiang Yang, saw that Xiang Yang didn't realize the importance of his words. After making a sarcastic comment, he said seriously:
"Xiang, you really need to pay close attention to this matter. When we return to the United States to perfect the script, the first thing to do is to interview actors. Then you, me and Bill, the three of us will be together."

"Ah, should I go too?" Xiang Yang looked at Bill in surprise.

The other party nodded cautiously.

This was an agreement he reached not long ago before Xiang Yang and Liu Qianqian arrived.

This kind of thing should have been more appropriately handled by the art director, but Bill knew that Anna would definitely not be free. She had limited energy to devote to this film, and her time was mainly to help herself secure funds.

So this burden can only be left to Xiang Yang.

Seeing the other party's attitude, Xiang Yang couldn't help but cast his eyes on Liu Qianqian beside him, and blinked to get some tips from his girlfriend.

"Uh" Liu Qianqian pursed her lips and nodded.

Realizing that this movie might not be as simple as it was originally, she nodded to Xiangyang with a smile and said:

"If the crew needs it, you must cooperate."

"Okay then." After hearing what she said, Xiang Yang didn't hesitate any more, but he said to Bill and Damien with some caution in his tone: "Then you must tell me in advance if you are sure. , after all, I have my own job.”

"Don't worry, we'll try to get it done in 1-2 days. If you don't want to stay in Los Angeles longer, I can book a round-trip air ticket for you." Bill smiled.

After getting the promise, Xiang Yang said OK.

Seeing that things were almost settled, trivial matters could be left to communicate later, and the few of them stopped wasting time in the hotel.

After a cordial farewell, as soon as they walked out of the hotel, in the warm sunshine, the two walked along the street, their heads slightly tilted toward each other, Xiang Yang's knuckles rubbed gently, and touched Liu Qianqian's delicate and soft arms.

Seeing him taking the initiative to send a signal asking for forgiveness, Liu Qianqian's eyebrows curved, and she naturally spread her fingers to let the other person hold her. At the same time, she looked at Xiang Yang with a smile and said:
"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"Um, do you want to take a tour of Paris?"

Xiang Yang stared straight ahead, this was what he had always wanted to do.

"Okay!" Liu Qianqian's brief response contained a hint of naughtiness.

"Then where do you want to go?"

"Flea Market" Liu Qianqian looked at Xiang Yang and said with a smile: "My role happens to be a shopkeeper in the flea market."

"Okay." Xiang Yang nodded. Compared to the crowded Louvre and various galleries, the flea market is undoubtedly a more interesting place. "Also, we have to come back early in the afternoon and go to my dad's house. He wants to invite you to have dinner with us."

After saying that, a light blush appeared on her cheeks with a faint smile.

Seeing the red cloud hanging on her fair face, and thinking that she had brought back all the tea leaves that Jiang Qiong'er had taken in the morning, Xiang Yang instantly understood the meaning of her words.

As we age, isn't it normal to fall in love?

Xiang Yang smiled slightly and said openly, "It seems that uncle knows about our relationship."

Liu Qianqian pursed her lips, "What else?"

"It's pretty good." Xiangyang subconsciously stretched out his hand to help her smooth the hair on her temples.

"My mother may have guessed it, she..." Feeling the gentle touch on her cheek, Liu Qianqian took a deep breath, but before she could finish speaking, Xiang Yang looked at each other and said with a smile:
"Then when will my parents know about this?"

"I" Liu Qianqian was stunned.

It seems so.

I am an adult now, and if my mother still has to make the decision on things like falling in love, is there any difference between me and the little girl a few years ago?

I have grown up.

She thought so and nodded with a smile on her face, "When we come back that night, I will accompany you to call your uncle and aunt."

"It's too late then, don't forget the time difference."

After saying that, Xiang Yang took Liu Qianqian's hand and walked towards the car on the side of the road without stopping.

Liu Qianqian let him hold her, her clear eyes always stayed on the hand he was holding. Looking at the hand that was tightly clenched, she thought that there was an ideal tacit understanding between them.

The two have completely different work and life rhythms, but this does not separate them, but connects them together.

half an hour.

Following the bustling crowd, passing by the east side of a viaduct, the two people holding hands arrived at the Santogan Flea Market.

Oncoming are small stalls, leather goods shops and clothing stores lined up under colorful nylon awnings. Many shop owners will stand in front of their shops and shout loudly.

This is the largest flea market in the world. It not only covers a large area, but also covers antiques from various ethnic traditional cultures and all kinds of strange and weird things. But no matter what they are selling, the only thing that interests them is actually It's your wallet.

Here, everyone wanders around more aimlessly and wears casual clothes.Jeans, T-shirts, casual shirts, and sneakers are the mainstream here.

Whenever she sees something she likes, Liu Qianqian approaches curiously.

She was like an ordinary tourist, chatting interestingly with every boss who was willing to give her a detailed introduction.Whether it was a camera from 120 years ago, furniture from the so-called Louis 14th and 15th periods, or unknown painters from the same period as Monet and Van Gogh, she was particularly interested.

Seeing her enjoying herself, Xiangyang also wandered around intently.

"Here, a gift for you." Xiang Yang, who was wandering around alone outside, returned to the small shop where Liu Qianqian stopped with a folded old book in his hand.

It is filled with all kinds of toy trains. According to the French owner named Demaret, he has collected them for more than 40 years. The toy trains displayed in the store come from more than 30 countries and are from different eras. It has a history of hundreds of years.

"Thank you." Seeing Xiang Yang come back, Liu Qianqian happily waved to the boss, carried a paper bag and smiled at Xiang Yang: "Okay, we should go."

After she finished speaking, she came to Xiang Yang and looked curiously at a thick book wrapped in brown kraft paper held in Xiang Yang's hand and asked, "What kind of book is this?"

"A Travel Guide to Paris by Augustus John Cuthbert Hale."

Xiang Yang was a little proud. This writer had written many travel guides, including "Roaming in Rome" and "Roaming in London", including the one he had in his hand.

What's even more rare is that what Xiangyang bought was the first edition in 1888.

He had been looking for this book for a long time before he found it at a stall that sold old books.

"I think I've seen it." Liu Qianqian blinked.

"Well, then you must not have read this edition." As he said that, he took the paper bag handed over by Liu Qianqian, and he knew what the other party bought without having to guess.

But this thing inside really made the corners of his mouth twitch.

He felt that Liu Qianqian must have been deceived by the shop owner to buy a toy locomotive so naively.
"Oh my god! It's Liu Qianqian!"

"Huh? It's really Liu Qianqian, she is so beautiful!"

"Oh, what a coincidence! Liu Qianqian, I love you!"

The two of them left the small shop selling toy trains and were about to continue shopping when several exclamations of surprise came from in front of them.There are men and women, wearing simple clothes, carrying branded sports backpacks, and young faces. They look like they are foreign students or tourists.

Before Xiang Yang and Liu Qianqian could react, they immediately surrounded him.

Seeing the excitement on their faces, some people took out their mobile phones without saying a word. The stunned Xiang Yang quickly protected Liu Qianqian behind him, trying to get her to talk to these people who didn't know whether they were movie fans, drama fans, or just simple Keep a distance from the curious and surprised students.

Being disturbed by the unexpected surprise, he had an unhappy expression on his face. He looked at the two young people in front with a frown and said:

"Sorry, this is a private trip, troublesome."

But before Xiang Yang could finish speaking, the young man walking at the front interrupted him.

It was Xu's first time to see a celebrity in private. The young man was very excited. His cheeks were red and he kept looking at Liu Qianqian's attractive legs that were modified by yoga pants under her blue shirt. She stuttered a bit. said:
"Bodyguard, please give in, we just want to take a group photo."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two people behind him also expressed their demands.

"Liu Qianqian, can you sign your name for us?"

"Liu Qianqian, you can."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yang took a step forward. Just when he was about to show off his "bodyguard" posture to dissuade the other party from getting closer, he felt the skirt of his clothes on his back being gently tugged by Liu Qianqian.
"Xiang Yang, leave it to me to handle it." Liu Qianxi said calmly.

She felt that she was used to facing such scenes and knew how to handle such situations.

Hearing this, Xiang Yang turned his head. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the complicated look in Liu Qianqian's raised eyes and frowned.

Well, my girlfriend is a star.She is an actor with outstanding looks and countless fan base.

This group of fans is a complex group, including idiot fans, fanatical fans, true fans, rational fans, and casual fans.
You can't easily offend various fan groups, nor can you express your opinions at will, because if you don't know which sentence is wrong, you will be labeled by some fanatic fans and idiot fans.

But now is my private time with her.

Xiang Yang sighed helplessly and watched as Liu Qianqian pursed her lips and took the paper and pen from the other party.
