Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 139 "Downton Abbey" (Seeking Confirmation)
"Hahaha, Nadal was eliminated!"

"Federer is stable at the French Open this time."

Filming continues, and so does the French Open.

The charm of competitive sports is always stimulating the explosion of male hormones.Unlike Federer, who stumbled through the fourth round, Nadal, known as the 'King of Clay', was actually eliminated!

A man named Soderling finally drove the 4-consecutive French Open champion back home.

An easy 3:1 not only stopped the opponent in the top 16, but also stopped the opponent's 31-game winning streak at the French Open.

Listening to the chatting topics of the men not far away, Liu Qianqian and Emma Stone, who were resting on the 'Vasili' chair, looked at each other. They basically didn't care much about the tennis event.

As for the "tie-break" and "preemption/preemption" that men talk about, they are even more confused.

"You said they, why do they talk so much about everything?"

"Who said it wasn't."

"It's like they're playing on the court."

"But people here in Paris are all talking about the competition." Liu Qianxi thought for a while, shrugged and said, "I don't know how many people I heard from today that Federer is going to win the Grand Slam."

"Maybe, this is the fashion they talk about." After speaking, Emma Stone pursed her lips.

Looking at the eyes of the group of men, she couldn't help but feel a little frozen when she thought of something because of the figure of a certain person.

"What are you doing?" Liu Qianqian saw Emma Stone suddenly stopped talking, and turned her head to ask her.

Emma Stone turned around after hearing this, "Liu, it seems that at the end of the month, it's Xiang's birthday. I'm thinking about what to give him. Have you prepared any surprises for him?"

"It's ready."

"Oh, yes." Emma Stone smiled slightly, "What does he usually like? Is it difficult for you to choose a gift for him?"

"No," Liu Qianqian blushed when she thought of the gifts she had prepared, "I just bought some."

"Just bought some?" Emma Stone blinked, her tone rising a little.

"Hey, you can just buy whatever you want anyway, that guy..." Liu Qianqian thought of the birthday gift Xiang Yang asked her for, and a hint of shyness suddenly rose in her heart. However, wearing sunglasses under the scorching sun, she covered up the passion very well. He walked over and said casually: "To be honest, I thought about it for a long time before deciding what to give him. It was Laura, Little John's wife who reminded me."

"It's quite difficult to give away." Emma Stone sighed slightly.

Xiang has a girlfriend and is still his friend.

I definitely can’t give away some of the more sensitive things, but other things…

Emma Stone thought for a while, and for a moment, she really didn't know what to give.

This man...is such a headache!

Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and frowned.

I can't go to the museum and steal a painting for him...

Before she could figure it out, the crew had already arranged the props. This scene was the second encounter between the male protagonist and the character played by Liu Qianqian in the park. They met unexpectedly at a bookstall selling second-hand books. See.

Both bought a book, "Wandering in Paris".

Damien originally designed the male protagonist to be blamed for only hanging out in the middle of the night because of an argument with his fiancée. When his fiancée was traveling with her friends, he came to the flea market to buy the Cole Porter song he heard that day to kill time. record.But after listening to Xiang Yang's suggestion, he felt better.

The book "Wandering in Paris" tells too many interesting anecdotes about Paris, and it also allows for a better interaction between the two characters.

In the end, the two of them met while walking on the Alexander III Bridge, each holding a book...

……

In front of the bookstall, Liu Qianqian turned her back and lowered her head, carefully selecting the books she wanted to buy.

On the monitor, she frowned slightly, her eyes swaying as her slender fingers slid over the names of each old book, until she stopped at the book "Wandering in Paris".

Hey, I haven’t had time to read the book Xiangyang gave me.

Just as she was thinking about it, her shoulder was lightly bumped by someone.

Annoyed, she was about to say something when she turned around and saw that it was Colin (the male protagonist).

"Hi, it's you."

"Hi, I remember you. Cole Porter's friend." She showed a surprised but sweet smile, with a smile in her eyes. After Colin said hello, she took a slight step back and said.

"Linda is also my friend." Colin smiled naturally. He glanced at the book that made the other person's finger rest, and said: "The book "Wandering in Paris" is very good. Are you still learning about Paris? "

"Well, yes. Paris is so charming." Liu Qianqian sighed with a smile, took the book in her hand, pulled back her hair that was moved by the breeze, and said: "Apart from music, it is quite interesting to understand this place from another angle. And I always feel like I’m seeing more.”

"Indeed, you can see more from another angle." Colin nodded in agreement, "By the way, call me Jill. If I have a chance, I want to buy two records from your store."

"My name is An," Liu Qianqian pursed her lips, agreed, and shook the book in her hand, "Then I'll go check out first."

"okay."……

"Card! Liu!" shouted "Card!". Behind the monitor not far away, Damien quickly shouted with a walkie-talkie: "If you speak in a more natural voice, this last sentence will be the same as the first time you saw me." Same as the first time I said hello." "Colin, you did a good job."

"I'm sorry, Colin." Liu Qianqian apologized, then took a deep breath and thought about Damien's words.

Damien's shots are all long shots, which are the so-called one shot to the end.

This kind of continuous image will bring a more realistic experience to the audience. Its focus is not on the long time, but on clearly explaining the continuity and change of the content through scene changes and angle changes within a certain length of time.

So after this break, the entire set of shots will have to be restarted.

Unless you're stuck on a really good node...

……

"Liu's acting skills have improved."

Standing far behind the monitor, Xiang Yang looked at the filming of Liu Qianqian and Colin with a curious expression. Hearing Emma Stone's words, he nodded in understanding.

He felt that it was quite natural, and there was no progress.

"Haha, I forgot that you only know how to make clothes." Emma Stone saw the confusion on Xiang Yang's face, and after her laughter subsided, she said, "When the post-production of the film is completed, you will know after watching the finished film. This performance was more natural than last time.”

"Oh, that's right." Xiang Yang showed a surprised expression.

It turns out that it looks natural because of his acting skills... No wonder Little John is so fake every time he acts a talkative person. It turns out it's too artificial.

After chatting for a while, Xiangyang and Little John returned to Hermes.

As soon as they arrived at the women's clothing designer's office area, their colleagues were basically talking about Nadal's elimination.

Because the theme of the show in the second half of the year is closely related to 'sports', coupled with the attention of the 'sports series' and this event in France and the world, it is impossible for everyone not to pay attention.

Many people even went to watch the women's tennis matches.

E.g…

"Le Maire went to the game again?"

Hearing that Director Le Maire was not here, Xiangyang smacked his lips.

Okay, maybe this is a real fan who can even stay in the "ahhhh" venue of the women's tennis...

"It's not just him," the colleague explained: "There is also the designer assistant named Sarah, the one you recruited, who went with him."

"Oh, that's it." Upon hearing this, Xiang Yang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Flamel and Sarah seem destined to be a good story~
It seems that even if I change some of my trajectories, 'love' is destined to happen.

So are you and Liu Qianqian destined to have sparks?
Xiang Yang was startled by his own idea. He quite liked the sparks between him and Liu Qianqian.But I want to keep it going...

Knowing what he should do, he chatted with his colleagues for a few words, then returned to his office, started reading "Downton Abbey" in his arms.

Many people are influenced by film and television dramas and think that "Downton Abbey" is a TV series, but in fact, it is a novel that took four years to be completed by British writer Jessica Fellowes, who happens to be Julianne Fee Rose's niece.

Julian Fellowes, who was born in Egypt, is also a very influential screenwriter, director, actor and producer in the UK and even Hollywood."Gosford Park," which he produced as a screenwriter and producer in 2001, won the 74th Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.

Therefore, "Downton Abbey" was successfully adapted to the screen, and eventually became world-renowned and was called the British version of "War and Peace." In addition to its own high quality, it is naturally inseparable from the TV series' impact on this film. Promotion of the novel.

There is no TV series, and only through words, few people can intuitively picture what the book tells in their minds.

It’s not impossible to do it if you want to.

Systematically understand all aspects of British history before and after World War I.For example, the British feminism, humanism, and fashion trends at that time, as well as the various social contradictions of medicine, justice, colonial issues, and the aristocratic tradition encountered in the changes of the times...

Understanding these, you can naturally understand the microcosm of the history of that era that this book explains.

But through film and television works, it is relatively simple.

This is also an important reason why more and more people learn about a country's culture through film and television works, because it can better stimulate people's thinking in a visual environment.

"Xiang, we have to summarize the characteristics of 33 characters in total, and then design corresponding fashions for them one by one. According to what we are both good at, I will leave the female role to you and the male role to me, how about that?"

Little John, who was also holding a copy of "Downton Abbey", saw Xiang Yang reading attentively when he walked in, and suggested with a smile.

"I advise you to reorganize your words." Xiang Yang didn't even raise his head.

This guy Little John...

Men’s three-piece tweed suit needs design!

Are those men’s uniform boots and hats worth designing?
"Xiang, I'm really not lazy this time." Little John said, coming to Xiang Yang's side with an innocent look on his face, and said pitifully: "You don't know how particular the damn Cockneys were at that time, just take it for dinner For example, when it comes to formal attire, I not only have to design shirts and trousers for them, but also waistcoats, waistbands, damn black ties, pocket squares, and buttons. Unlike you, I only need to design the clothes. Be more beautiful, just match it with jewelry and headwear..."

When Little John said this, he glanced at Xiangyang secretly several times.

Xiang Yang, who was reading calmly at first, suddenly realized something and raised his head: "We also need to do jewelry design ourselves?"

"Why not?"
