Entertaining Children

Regardless of past life or present life, this is not the first time for Xiao Yao to fly on a plane. But going abroad on an international flight is really the first time a girl gets on a sedan chair. Compared with domestic flights, international flights have an additional customs procedure after going through the security check, which is not a problem for Xiao Yao.

Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying both went abroad for work reasons, and the customs clearance procedures, what can and cannot be brought, Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying have explained clearly to Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao has also understood it himself, so they passed the customs smoothly without any problems.

It was the first time for Xiao Yao to go abroad by plane. Of course, Xiao Siqi would not let him make unnecessary troubles by connecting planes halfway. He helped him book a direct flight from Yanjing to New York. Since the flight will last more than ten hours, in order to make him more comfortable on the plane, he booked a first-class ticket. But Xiao Siqi booked the ticket, but Xiao Yao had to pay for it himself. Xiao Yao was also extremely speechless about this, but in order to make Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying less worried, and because he couldn't sit still now, he silently accepted it all.

Xiao Yao's current height is close to 1.5 meters. This height is not much different from some adult women with particularly short stature, but his face is still in line with his age, so when Xiao Yao boarded the plane, he was enthusiastic. The flight attendant came up to pick up his carry-on luggage and helped him put it in the luggage compartment.

Compared with the more luxurious decoration, richer meals, and better-looking flight attendants, what makes Xiao Yao most happy is that he can finally recline the seat on the plane and sleep on it. It was something he'd always wanted to do on a plane before, but had never been able to do it. However, the plane has not yet taken off, and it is not possible to put down the seat and sleep directly. Xiao Yao could only put on headphones and listen to music while waiting for the plane to take off.

Of course, apart from listening to music, Xiao Yao's hands, eyes and mind cannot be idle. In the past two years, I spent my time learning photography skills, but since I went to the Eva show this time, even if I went to the backstage to capture embarrassing photos, it can be regarded as a formal connection with the fashion circle and even the model circle. If it is a ten-year-old child, of course it is good to simply complete the task. But as a guy with a soul in his thirties, Xiao Yao had to do some preparatory work in advance.

Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. As early as when Xiao Yao promised Chen Xuan to be the backstage photographer of the Eva Show, he asked Chen Xuan for the information of all the more than 30 people who participated in the Eva Show this time, except for basic information, personal experience, and personality traits Wait, even previous works and catwalk video materials are required.

Xiao Yao's reason is that only if he has enough understanding of the people he wants to photograph, can he accurately predict where they may be embarrassed, which will be more helpful for him to capture embarrassing photos of these people in the background. This reason is very good and powerful, and even sounds very professional. Chen Xuan directly approached the person in charge of Eva Show with the same argument, and got the information smoothly. These dozens of people were selected through interviews from hundreds of people, and Eva has all kinds of information in hand.

At the same time, in order to avoid the embarrassment of talking about chickens and ducks, Xiao Yao also has to make up for all kinds of knowledge in the modeling industry. From historical development to the current situation and professional terms, he needs to understand. He can try not to speak, but accept I can't understand what others are saying. The information in this area is relatively fragmented. Chen Xuan didn't have all the information on hand, and he didn't have the time to help Xiao Yao find it. Fortunately, his contacts were strong enough, so he directly found a friend of a famous fashion magazine editor and got a copy. The very complete information was thrown to Xiao Yao to read slowly.

These two piles of information were Xiao Yao's main pastime during the ten-hour journey besides sleeping. Through these materials, Xiao Yao, who is a complete layman, knows that the model circle is also divided into the idol group and the powerful group, as well as the HF group and the business group. Just like actors who specialize in drama, they are considered better and more professional in acting, but their income is not the same as that of film and television actors of the same level.

HF means high-end fashion models are more temperamental and tasteful, all kinds of high-cold,

It is also more valued in the circle, but usually the income is not as high as those commercial models. Of course, just like drama actors can also act in film and television dramas, and film and television drama actors can also take time to act in dramas, HF and commercial models are not completely separated. , but the emphasis is somewhat different.

Although Xiao Yao has acted in dramas but not in film and television dramas, he is not a person who pursues niche and aloofness. And whether it is his first acting teacher or his grandfather Xiao Chengru, although they both act in dramas, their identities are better known through the screen rather than the drama stage. Xiao Yao's aesthetics are still popular, and he doesn't like HF models more because of their aloofness. In contrast, he admires those commercial models more.

Fortunately, the Eva show is a top commercial fashion show. In addition to having a good figure in the eyes of most ordinary people, the models here also have beautiful faces that conform to the aesthetics of most ordinary people. Fortunately, he didn't see the typical HF model's paper figure, rigid or fairy face or weird face this time.

Speaking of the models in this show, Xiao Yao was also very happy to see the names of the two Huaxia models. Although Xiao Yao didn't know them at all, he was very happy to see their names, even a little proud. Eva is a world-class fashion brand, and the Eva show is also a world-class fashion event. In order to take care of customers and audiences of different races, the Eva show over the years has brought together models of various races and skin colors. In East Asia In this race, Eva chose Chinese models instead of models from her neighbors, Japan and South Korea.

Because of the time difference, it was still daytime when Xiao Yao boarded the plane during the day and got off the plane at the New York International Airport. After picking up the luggage, Xiao Yao came out and saw Chen Xuan waiting in the pick-up hall for the first time.

After calling Xiao Siqi immediately to report his safety, Xiao Yao followed Chen Xuan to the reserved hotel. Although she is a ten-year-old rookie photographer, Eva, who is rich and powerful, still generously booked Xiao Yao a high-end suite in a five-star hotel. When Xiao Yao was in China before, whether he was wandering around with Xiao Chengru or Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying, the hotel conditions he lived in were also very good, but they had never lived in a five-star hotel because they were not extravagant. It's also a free meal.

There was nothing to do on the first day of arrival, the main task was to fight jet lag. But Xiao Yao, who had slept on the plane for a long time, didn't feel sleepy at all, so he just stayed in the hotel and continued to read the materials he read on the plane.

Chen Xuan brought news to Xiao Yao early the next morning. The Eva show's test on him was cancelled, and he will directly participate in the official performance of the Eva show tomorrow night. At the same time, Xiao Yao is required to participate in the rehearsal this afternoon. He will be arranged to enter the backstage, get to know the models and the backstage staff, and at the same time familiarize himself with the backstage environment and work flow, so as to avoid as much as possible due to him during the official performance tomorrow night. What accidents occur due to the reason affecting the normal work of the background.

Xiao Yao naturally has no problem with this request. The afternoon rehearsal was scheduled to start at four o'clock, and the entire morning and half afternoon were free. The United States is no better than China, it is not safe to go out to hang out at night, and Xiao Yao is only ten years old, and many entertainment places will not allow Xiao Yao to enter according to the law. So yesterday afternoon, after Chen Xuan sent Xiao Yao to the hotel to rest, he left Xiao Yao alone in the hotel at night with peace of mind, and went out to have fun by himself.

Now that most of the free time during the day, Xiao Yao came to the United States for the first time, Chen Xuan decided to take Xiao Yao out for a stroll. Now that the Big Apple, the Statue of Liberty, Times Square, the Empire State Building and other places are here, it seems unreasonable not to take Xiao Yao to see them.

For photographers big and small, going out to play is a must-have camera, and it must be a professional SLR camera. The two of them walked, played, watched, and photographed all the way. After visiting three places, it was easy to kill most of the free time for the day.

The two were very punctual and arrived at the performance venue of the press conference before 4:00 p.m. At this time, the construction of the venue and the installation and commissioning of lighting, audio and other equipment were also done in a hurry. Although he said that the test on Xiao Yao was cancelled, after meeting with the person in charge of the press conference, Chen Xuan couldn't help but export the photos Xiao Yao took during his previous wanderings for him to see.

As Xiao Yao's teacher and together with Xiao Yao, every time Xiao Yao took a photo in the morning, Chen Xuan had to go through it, so as to guide him at any time during the shooting. Many of these photos are street shots of strangers on the street, and none of them are Xiao Yao's poses for him to take pictures after discussing with others, all of them are Xiao Yao's casual snap shots. So these photos are enough to show that Xiao Yao's sense of capture and ability are sufficient for this shooting task.

Sure enough, the person in charge of the Eva show, Dunn Gianni, a gray-haired old man in his fifties, saw the photos Chen Xuan showed, and his last worry about Xiao Yao was gone. It happened that an assistant came over to report that all the models had arrived and all the venue equipment had been prepared, and the rehearsal could begin. The old man took advantage of the situation and said, "Okay, then I'll take Young to the backstage to introduce you to everyone. Thiel, you don't need to come backstage, leave the little guy to me."

It was all the process that was notified before, Chen Xuan and Xiao Yao nodded at the same time. Old man Dunn took Xiao Yao to the backstage.

The backstage of the fashion show is basically divided into several large areas: the dressing area, the dressing area, and the waiting area. Since it is not a rehearsal with makeup, the models basically gather in the waiting area connected to the exit channel. As soon as Dunn came in, the models all looked over and said hello.

"Is this the backstage photographer this time?" A sharp-eyed model saw Xiao Yao coming in with Dun En, and immediately asked Dun En. Xiao Yao was still holding the camera in his hand, and with his immature face, it was easy for the models to guess his identity.

"Yes, let me introduce to you, this year's backstage photographer, YoungShaw. His work has been published in France's "City Picture" and our US "World Geographic", a great newcomer photography Master." Dun En introduced with a smile.

"Hello, beauties, I'm YoungShaw." Xiao Yao stepped forward and greeted the models with a smile.

Xiao Yao said hello in English. After he got off the plane and called Xiao Siqi to report his safety, he switched to the English mode. The communication with Chen Xuan in the past two days was all in English, and Chen Xuan was determined not to give Chen Xuan the opportunity to practice Chinese in the United States.

"Young, how young are you?" asked one of the sweet-looking beauty models with long straight blond hair.
