Chapter 364 VIP Treatment
Everything is new and unfamiliar.
Edgar is no exception. While excited, it is inevitable to feel a little uneasy.
Generally speaking, agents don’t care and shouldn’t care about actors’ psychological awkwardness. They should try to persuade actors to focus on money——
It is for this reason that in the late 1990s, During this time in the early 21st century, countless top Hollywood stars traveled to Japan to shoot commercials.
The endorsement fee is extremely generous.
Including but not limited to top-tier stars such as Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Will Smith, etc., and even European actors represented by Alain Delon have gone to Japan in large numbers to shoot commercials Endorsement.
Such actions are often scorned or even ridiculed in the film industry. However, due to the underdeveloped Internet, those Japanese advertisements rarely reach European countries and the United States, so agents have responded with This is the reason to encourage actors to take over the job and make a fool of themselves for a reward.
At this time, Edgar should do the same, after all, the check has been received.
But Edgar did not, because he had higher expectations for Anson's career as an actor, and because he knew that Anson was a person with the ability to think independently.
Therefore, Edgar did not preset an answer, but asked a question.
"Are you worried?"
Anson looked away, slightly stunned, and it took him a moment to realize what Edgar meant, and his smile rose, "No, I'm not worried at all. . ”
“If there is such an opportunity in the future, we can still sit down and talk. After all, fashion movies are much more respectable than endorsing diapers.”
Edgar understood immediately. A smile rose at the corner of his mouth——
The superstars who go to Japan to endorse may not really endorse diapers, but they often endorse daily necessities. There is some gap between their own images, which is really puzzling.
“We don’t need to discuss art all the time. Art is of course important, but art without economic roots is just talking to itself. Everyone admires Van Gogh, but no one wants to be Van Gogh.”
Vincent Van Gogh was poor and depressed during his lifetime, but he was appreciated after his death, and his paintings were auctioned for sky-high prices——
Unfortunately, he himself was There will never be any way to know.
Edgar also relaxed, "Then what were you looking at just now?"
Anson blinked, "Oh, I'm just marveling at the photographer's ability. To be honest, I don't feel like myself at all."
"Wait, or are they retouching the pictures a lot?"
Edgar, "Retouching? What retouching?"
Anson had forgotten that computer retouching technology is not so developed now. Photographers rely more on their strength, and models It also depends on strength.
“No. I’m just sighing.”
"So, for the next three months, I will be the face of Dior. This feeling is not bad."
As Edgar expected, Anson's recognition and popularity skyrocketed.
Originally, Anson thought that maybe it was limited to the fashion circle, maybe it was limited to fashion week. After all, fashion is a small circle as big as a palm, and the noise and excitement are just the self-pleasure of fashion people. Once they leave, During fashion week, all the halo and applause will disappear, just like Cinderella returns to her original state after midnight.
However, no.
Business and darkness, people with long guns and short guns are waiting for Anson in the check-in hall of the airport. This treatment is comparable to that of a superstar.
In 2001, airport photography had not yet become popular. Not to mention Paris, even Los Angeles was not so enthusiastic. Reporters would not go to the airport to surround artists to capture their postures entering and exiting the airport. Only a very, very few superstars could. enjoy such treatment.
And now, Anson saw this scene at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport.
"If you had just attended the Cannes Film Festival and saw this scene, it would be perfect; but there is no need to be picky, this is fine."
Anson joked, and then Just get out of the car and dive into a flash of lights.
Although it was the first time he encountered blockage at the airport, Anson behaved calmly and calmly, continuing his upright attitude at Paris Fashion Week. "Anson, what is your relationship with Winona?"
“Did you know each other before the fashion week?”
“Did you exchange contact information with her?”
“Come to the fashion week to experience this time. How about it? Will we see you again at the Autumn/Winter Fashion Week? ”
“Do you have any plans to walk for other brands? ”
"Are you a third party to Winona's feelings?"
"What happened at the Chanel fashion show that day, can you respond?"
Bah, bah, a Then a question rushed over and hit Anson on the head. Even though he was on flat land, he felt like he was surfing. The waves were coming one after another and he couldn't stop at all.
However, Anson always kept smiling and did not respond to any questions - this was not a press conference, and he had nothing to clarify; but he did not leave in a hurry, but stood there and was baptized by the flash, upright and dignified. The posture made all the reporters' attacks futile.
Patience, calmness and calmness.
Anson seemed to stay in place consciously, waiting for the reporters to throw out all the questions, allowing the jackals and tigers in front of him to vent for a while, and then gently nodded his head with a smile on his face, and then under the protection of Edgar and the airport security personnel Leave calmly.
Everyone was left looking at each other in shock——
Every reporter was red-faced, sweating profusely, and in a state of embarrassment; but the target of their siege was calm, calm, and unrestrained.
Things seem to be a little bit wrong.
On the other side, Anson had already entered the airport dry and smooth, and successfully completed the check-in, consignment and boarding procedures from the VIP channel, making the journey smooth.
Edgar couldn't help but let out a long breath.
No matter what time it is or what city it is, these media and the all-pervasive paparazzi will always be the most troublesome. They did not expect that Paris would encounter such a situation, and they also did not expect that it would be solved with such an understatement.
Edgar looked at Anson, "If this continues, Eve will probably be unemployed."
Anson shook his head slightly, "That's not necessarily the case. I am good at improvising, and Eve is good at it. She is a strategist who plans in advance and cleans up the mess."
Edgar looked stunned, "Wait, did you just use the 'Art of War'?"
"Hey, you actually know 'Sun Tzu's Art of War'?"
One second, Edgar discovered the New World; the next second, the initiative fell into Anson's hands, and Edgar was inexplicably bypassed. Got in.
We had just boarded the plane and there were no other passengers in the cabin yet. The oncoming flight attendant smiled and brought morning greetings.
"Good morning, Mr. Wood."
Anson was very surprised that the flight attendant was able to say his name accurately, but obviously, that was not all.
"We have upgraded you to first class and hope you can enjoy a pleasant journey."
In fact, I am worried that Anson's appearance in economy class may cause unnecessary commotion; but the airline's clever words can Make customers feel special.
Anson turned to look at Edgar, and Edgar was also confused -
They had booked economy class, round trip.
But I never expected that there would be such special treatment for VIPs.
Seemingly aware of Anson's questioning gaze, the flight attendant added, "The same goes for Mr. Cook."
