American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 153 Teresa: This is all your plan, right? Twelve "Lord Gods" (Additional chapter for the Sheep Catcher)
Teresa originally thought that Ryan would refuse, or even force her to stay, but he didn't show any surprise on the surface. He thought for a moment and then said:

"are you sure?"

"In that case, I won't force you to stay, but this is too sudden. I'm not prepared at all. At least I have to wait until someone replaces you."

"Okay, then the deadline is one month, which is enough time for you to find another female secretary." Teresa nodded.

"By the way, you have to come with me to Miami," Ryan continued.

"No problem." Teresa got the answer and did not resist.

·
The next morning, Theresa loaded her and Ryan's luggage into the car.

Since the distance was short and they could get there by car, Ryan didn't bring anyone else except Theresa, so it was just the two of them the whole time.

Teresa drove the entire trip, and Ryan sat in the back seat and made a few phone calls as usual, one of which was to Taylor.

"The father of a fan in the forum happens to be the director of the concert. He has worked with Madonna and a lot of other artists. I talked to him on the phone, and he said it would take at least two months to recruit the entire technical team, plus the motorcade. At the earliest, you can start the tour after the Grammy Awards next year. I'll contact AEG in the near future..."

"Drinking? They are all Paris' friends. It's the first day of the box opening, so of course I have to go and take a look. Did you see Lydia in the photo? Yes, as the princess of Hearst Group, it is necessary to curry favor with her. I am considering making her the spokesperson for the neutral series under sTRay, and letting her guest star in a TV series. Of course, you are also included..."

"Buy a house? No problem. Where do you want to buy one? Florida... Palm Beach? It's not impossible, but due to the subprime mortgage crisis, house prices here have been falling. I think it's better to wait and see for a while. It's better to buy in other big cities. Even if you don't live there all the time, you can still treat it as an investment... You want to move here? Okay? Then buy one in the vicinity of Orlando. Of course, it must be a big house with a sea view..."

"I'm on my way to Miami right now, when you get to New York, give me a call...I love you, too."

Ryan put down his phone and heard Teresa, who was driving, say, "In another 20 minutes, we'll be in Miami."

·
When we came to the Fontainebleau Hotel again, we saw a huge steel frame structure had been built on the beach lawn. Workers were installing a soft composite material that looked like cloth and leather on the iron frame. Many outdoor fashion shows are built with this material, which is simple and convenient.

The on-site heads of Victoria's Secret Marketing Department, Public Relations Department, and Brand Creative Department met with Ryan one after another.

The three departments are responsible for different things. The marketing department is responsible for planning the theme, design direction and overall brand tone of the fashion show, and is also mainly responsible for contacting guest stars. The public relations department coordinates event coverage and news releases, and mainly deals with the media. The brand creative department is responsible for interior construction, adjusting visual effects, coordinating designers and clothing teams, and focusing on connecting with models.

In contrast, event management does all the dirty work, such as setting up stages, adjusting facilities, and compiling guest lists.

During the rehearsal, Ryan saw the on-site heads of the three departments with whom he had communicated before came to the scene with a blonde woman. The woman watched his performance on the spot, and standing next to her was Edward Razek, who was dressed very well. The specific creativity of the Victoria's Secret Show was led by him, and he is currently the chief marketing officer of L Brands, the parent company of Victoria's Secret.

After Ryan finished rehearsal, the blonde woman walked towards him with a group of people.

"Ryan, we finally meet." She looked at Ryan with a smile.

finally?

"Have we met before?" Ryan asked subconsciously.

The woman smiled but didn't say anything. Someone next to her started to introduce her. This woman's name was Sharon Jester Turney. She was currently the president and CEO of Victoria's Secret and the top person of the Victoria's Secret brand.

She previously worked at Macy's and Neiman Marcus, an American luxury department store, where she rose to the position of senior vice president.

In 06, she took charge of Victoria's Secret and doubled its profit margin in two years, increasing its turnover by 2500%, making it the most important source of income for its parent company L Brands. Her annual salary is also as high as an astonishing million US dollars, making her the fourth highest paid female executive in the United States. Those ahead of her are Oracle's CFO, Yahoo's CEO, and Kraft Foods' chairman.

After a brief greeting, Sharon looked around and pointed out a number of problems on the scene, with a bit of the aura of a big boss who was giving orders.

"It's still early, why don't you go to the local Victoria's Secret store? There's one not far from here," Sharon reminded.

Letting a grown man go shopping in a lingerie store? Not a good idea.

"Don't worry, we are gradually breaking this traditional concept. The store will be more life-like and the whole family can enter." Sharon called one of her subordinates.

"Take Ryan over there."

Party A had already arranged this. Ryan couldn't refuse. He was taken away from the scene.

After entering the store, I don't know if they were prepared in advance, but a few photographers came out from nowhere and started taking pictures of Ryan who was choosing items.

"Ms. Sharon said that you are a VIP, so just ask for anything you need." The store manager served Ryan eagerly.

Ryan was not polite at all. He went to the second floor of the store and picked out a lot of "fun clothes" with a sense of design and high-end and soft fabrics. He also asked for different sizes. When he came out, Theresa couldn't carry so many things by herself.

In the end, with the addition of the staff, it took three people to barely deliver the things to Ryan's room.

"You will sort them by size and send them to Los Angeles and Nashville respectively. I will give you the specific addresses. As for the rest, take them back to the company."

"Who are you going to give it to after you bring it back to the company?" Teresa asked subconsciously.

Ryan looked her over and said, "Of course I'll let you wear it."

"What?" Teresa was surprised and a little frightened.

"Don't get excited. I'm asking you to help try, not to wear it to work." Ryan smiled.

"You should let Terra try it on." Teresa lowered her head and squatted on the ground to adjust it.

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, where are you going after you quit your job? Are you going to return to Hollywood?" Ryan asked.

Theresa continued to tidy up her things and didn't respond to Ryan.

"I know some friends at NYU, and I can get you into NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. Angelina Jolie graduated from there." Ryan looked at her smooth knees and suddenly spoke.

Ryan didn't actually know them, but he heard the Olsen sisters mention at the party how their younger sister got into New York University.

Theresa paused as she sorted her hands, then continued.

"I actually like you very much." Ryan continued.

"If you say that again, I'll leave now!" Theresa looked up and stared at Ryan.

"I want to help you, that's all. You can be a big star! You deserve it. I don't think you're worse than Cara Knightley or Scarlett Johansson or Natalie Portman. You have outstanding looks, but you were born at the wrong time and ran into Twilight."

"Thank you, but I'll try my best."

"You've been working hard for so many years. Are there any results?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Come here, I'm tired, massage my shoulders."

“That’s not part of my job.”

"Just a touch on the shoulder, I won't touch you."

"Do you swear?" Theresa stood up doubtfully.

"Hurry up." Ryan urged.

Faced with the boss's urging, Teresa slowly approached.

Ryan raised his hand naturally.

"What are you doing? Let go, please?"

"Don't do this."

"It really doesn't work."

"Okay then, just for a moment, you promised me."

"..." Teresa warned with a painful expression.

He didn't even take off his clothes.

"You planned it from the beginning, right?" After a while, Theresa woke up from her dream. From the beginning, Ryan had been lowering his guard, and letting her "bump into" him in the middle was probably planned. The same was true when she resigned.

Ryan stroked her face gently, and did not deny it. Looking at Theresa with messy hair and charming appearance, he liked her more and more.

"Did you do the same to Taylor?" Ryan was too lazy to talk nonsense with her at this time and just raised his leg.

"Faster!" She took the initiative to hug Ryan.

·
After a while, Theresa, who was exhausted, got dressed, finished the rest of her work, and left without saying a word, as if nothing had happened.

Ryan went to the gym. After coming back, he turned on his computer to check the forum as usual. Today, he received an extra private message.

【5555: You are really rude. You took so much and even divided them into different sizes for different women?】

5555? Ryan felt unfamiliar with this ID at first, as this ID was not often used.

After recalling for a long time, Ryan remembered that she once again followed the number "3" and donated $3000 to herself. She also remembered that she had asked about Karlie Kloss's whereabouts when she intervened in the scandal.

3000 US dollars is not too much, but not too little either, and it is definitely not enough for the working class.

Karlie Kloss is a model, and 5555 is very concerned about her movements.

The meaningful smile on each other's face during the combination rehearsal...

Although it was a bit far-fetched, Ryan still made a judgment about her identity and replied.

[Ms. Sharon, it is my honor to receive your affirmation.] Ryan replied respectfully.

She sent the message about an hour ago, when Ryan was still working. Ryan thought she should be asleep, but he didn't expect to get a reply soon.

[I am not Sharon, and I don't know Sharon. Don't be so reserved, and don't talk to me like you're your boss.]

The other party indirectly acknowledged his identity.

Fan forums are really full of hidden talents, Ryan said with emotion.

There is a theory that there are only six people between any two people in the world, that is, through six people, you can get in touch with any other person in the world. The number of registered IDs in the fan forum is approaching 20,000. These 20,000 people have virtually built a network of relationships for Ryan, making everything he does in the future much easier.

[Sharon: Who contacted you? Do you know Razek?]

[I ran into your staff member by chance... Razek had only heard of this name.]

[Oh, remember, don't reveal my identity to anyone on the forum, and don't reveal your relationship with me to anyone outside of the forum.]

[Of course, I will keep it secret and won’t care about it]

You should know that above "5555", there is a "3", and this person is also a top boss.

Then, Sharon took the initiative to ask Ryan about his recent movements. She encouraged Ryan to keep working hard and create better songs, and said that she would continue to support Ryan. Having said that, she really sounded like a fan.

[Also, I'd like to ask you to do me a favor. I've only been the president and CEO for two years, and I don't know much about some departments, especially the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and Victoria's Secret Angels...] She began typing.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show has been held for more than ten years, and there are three generations of Victoria's Secret Angels, a large number of which were formed before her arrival.

[So, I would like to ask you to do me a favor and investigate some things...] She talked about the details and actually asked Ryan to investigate the romantic dealings between Victoria's Secret Angels and the brand's senior executives.

[I'm afraid I don't have the ability.] Ryan refused directly.

He smelled the scent of "internal fighting among the top leaders" and thought it would be better for him to stay out of such matters.

[No, you are the most suitable candidate. Hasn't your brand been announced to the public? I believe you have also made a series of moves in the fashion circle. It is natural for you to contact these models. No one will doubt it.]

[Then why don't you find someone else to contact the Victoria's Secret Angels privately? That would be more convenient. ]

[I have looked for many, but those models are very tight-lipped, and someone has passed the message to Razek, so I won’t reveal the details. Anyway, you are a suitable candidate.]

No wonder he asked me right away if I knew Razek.

[If necessary, you can also use some means, such as threats, but if the matter is exposed, I will deny all the conversations today. ]

She never directly acknowledged her identity.

[In return, you will also be given the necessary rewards, rewards at various levels. ]

What if I don't agree?

【Then I'll find someone else. 】

Ryan fell into deep thought.

During the prime time, the 08 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show started on time.

Arthur, wearing jazz costume and a round-brimmed hat, was the first to appear on stage. His latest single "What's Your Name" was played on the spot. As the music played, Arthur stretched his body and made dance moves. Arthur's singing and dancing skills are good, and his stage presence is also first-class. But compared with Justin, he is still five Ryans short.

Ryan had to admit that as a big, half-baked guy, singing and dancing were not his strong points.

Then, the first model comes on stage. The order in which models appear in fashion shows is also very particular. The best one is often the first to set the tone, which is called "big opening". The last one is called "big closing". For each different theme, there is also a "small opening" or "small closing".

From 02 to 06, the Victoria's Secret model was the world's top model, but she did not renew her contract after 06.

Karlie Kloss became famous as a model because she was favored by Pirate (a well-known designer who was later fired for his anti-squid remarks) and worked for Dior for several consecutive years, thus establishing her position in the high-end fashion modeling circle.

Now that the first sister has left, the second sister naturally has to carry the flag. The first one to come out is Lima. Today, she is wearing a gray two-piece underwear, with silver ribbons wrapped from her feet to her thighs in the style of ancient Rome. She is wearing a blue-purple cloak, with her hands on her waist, and she walks slowly, dragging her hair, with an upright temperament.

The first theme of this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was "Greek Gods", and Lima's cosplay object was the goddess Hera.

Alexandra, who appeared second, was wearing a silver bra with several chains on it and a huge golden wing on her back, representing Athena, the goddess of wisdom and victory.

Miranda Kerr was the third to appear. She had a golden ring around her neck and a beige ribbon slung diagonally across her body, symbolizing Apollo, the god of light.

The fourth, Marina, represents Poseidon, the god of the sea.

The fifth one, Selita, nicknamed Auntie Ta, represents the messenger Hermes. When she is standing still, she raises her arms and crosses them, with her body stretched out, which is particularly eye-catching with her short brown hair.

The sixth one, big kk, Karolina Kerkova, cosplays as the goddess of hunting Artemis.

The seventh one is Russia’s top supermodel Anna Vyalitina, nicknamed Anna V, who cosplays as Hades, the god of the underworld.

At that time, she had not yet met lead singer Ma Laowu.

Ryan was sitting in the first row of the audience and saw Anna glance at him while walking on the catwalk.

As for the remaining three, they are somewhat inferior to Anna.

But when the twelfth and final "Lord God" appeared, Ryan's eyes lit up again.

She is wearing pink and white underwear, a silver belt around her waist, and a light pink translucent tulle skirt behind her. When she is posing, her body is slightly tilted to one side, and the knee of the other leg is bent, showing her slender and beautiful legs. This is completely different from Taylor's long legs. Her legs are obviously more plump and full of primitive beauty. The skin color of the sunbath makes this beauty more prominent. She represents the goddess of love Aphrodite.

"Who is this?" Ryan immediately asked Theresa who was sitting next to him.

"Candice Swanepoel, from South Africa." Theresa said expressionlessly.

Since that night, Theresa seemed like a different person. She was very cold to Ryan, but she would do whatever Ryan asked her to do.

"There is only one first-generation angel who will appear in the first theme, Heidi Klum. There are two second-generation angels, and five third-generation angels. Among the remaining four, two are on the Victoria's Secret stage for the first time." Theresa went on to mention.

Ryan had previously asked her to research all the models on the list for this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

In this case, the first generation of angels must know the most, but they are also the most difficult to deal with. The second generation of angels are the first two to appear, and as vested interests, they will definitely not reveal anything. The third generation of angels are now the backbone... After thinking it over, Ryan decided to start with the two newcomers who just appeared on the Victoria's Secret stage this year.

He had already agreed to Sharon's request, but the conditions she offered were too generous...

"Mr. Ryan, you have to get ready." At this time, a staff member came over and whispered in Ryan's ear.

　I added three more chapters today and will continue tomorrow.
