The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 91 Unexpected Discovery
Anson Wood.

In less than two months, this name has once again attracted widespread attention, and this time, in the fashion circle, a storm is coming.

Especially when rumors circulated within the "GQ" editorial department that the creativity of this look came entirely from Anson himself, and Anson also participated in the shooting theme.

Things can no longer stop, stormy waves are arousing, and the vast discussion has kicked off the midsummer for the fashion world, which is comparable to the summer season.

A bright spot may only be a small-scale discussion, but one after another, one link after another, in the end, an incredible chemical reaction will occur. The name "Anson Wood" will also become a hot topic of discussion in the fashion circle.

As a model, but also as a fashion icon.

accident.

A complete surprise.

"GQ" struggled to take the final risk, and got incredibly rich rewards——

Four pages.

The magazine gave Anson four pages. A fledgling newcomer, a daring attempt, and a gamble under great pressure. It would be an impossible proposal for any magazine editorial team to pass, but it became "GQ" The key breakthrough that you have been searching for.

Everything starts from here.

Judging from sales, readers vote with actual actions.

There is no doubt that people paid attention to this issue of the magazine at first because of Hugh Jackman and Brad Pitt, but in the end they got an unexpected surprise because of Anson. If it is not clear about the second shipment, the third one Huo Mao has already demonstrated the real source of influence with practical actions.

The two handsome guys and the two superstars were reduced to foils and became the brightest background of the June issue of "GQ".

From a fashion point of view, the discussion about matching suits and skate shoes cannot stop.

Honestly, is this a shocking combination?
of course not.

But creativity is often like this. After it comes out, everyone says "it's too simple and basic", "I've thought of it before", "it's not an innovation"; however, these are all hindsight, and "simple" does not mean easy. , similarly, fashion is not just a combination, but also a concept and an attitude.

You can wear a suit with slippers if you like, but why does a suit with skate shoes look so cool in GQ magazine?

Suddenly, shootings with this theme sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

However, no one has been able to capture the essence of it. Although it is such a simple and ordinary style, no one can copy the success of "GQ".

What's going on here?

however.

The matching of suits and skate shoes can be seen sporadically on the streets of Los Angeles. The number is not large. After all, the speed of communication is still not as fast as in the social network era, but their existence does prove that fashion trends are happening quietly. Change.

influence, slowly fermenting.

However, these are all things for later, and we still have to wait. Only time will tell what this issue of the magazine means to "GQ".

Time, go back a little bit, and go back to the beginning of June, that is, the early days when "GQ" was quietly triggering a discussion boom, and everyone was paying attention.

Not only girls like Gloria and Madeleine, but also people in the Los Angeles film industry are vaguely aware of the hot discussion. Such as casting director Marcia-Ross.

This veteran director who has participated in countless film casting projects just spotted Heath-Ledger among countless actors the year before last, and brought this young man who had only appeared in two Australian films Los Angeles, playing the leading role in "10 Things I Hate About You" opened the door to Hollywood for him.

A pair of discerning eyes is a professional ability of a casting director, but Bole is not always able to display his ability, and occasionally encounters moments of weakness.

Such as this time.

Looking at director Gary Marshall in front of her, Marcia had countless cruel and dirty words in her mind that she wanted to say, but she didn't.

Gary Marshall, 66 years old this year, is a legendary romantic comedy director in Hollywood.

This legendary director started his career in TV dramas, developed a series of famous sitcoms in the history of American television, and was nominated for sixteen Emmy Awards; but it was as a film director that made him truly famous, including 1990's " "Beautiful Woman" is enough to go down in history.

At that time, "Pretty Woman" cast the then-unknown Julia Roberts as the heroine. The movie became an instant hit, sweeping US$1990 million at the box office, ranking second in the annual box office in , and making Julia the and... Meg Ryan competes for beauty as "America's Sweetheart."

Last year, he reunited the two protagonists of "Pretty Woman" to co-star in "Runaway Bride", which once again earned US$150 million at the box office and broke into the top ten in the annual box office rankings, ranking ninth , once again proved that his romantic movies still have a market.

Although he is sixty-six years old, Gary Marshall still maintains strong creative inspiration. No, after being busy shooting two movies in a row, he began to adapt an original novel, trying to approach it from different angles, in the romance A new spark has been developed in the romantic comedy genre.

Facing Gary, even though Marcia's mind was full of swear words, she still kept her mouth shut.

"...God, you are telling me now that there is no handsome guy of the right age in the whole of Hollywood. Why, now all Hollywood is forty-year-old middle-aged people? Eighteen-year-old young people have completely lost touch with Hollywood. Interested, so there is still no satisfactory candidate in casting?"

"Don't look at me. I know everything you want to say, but I just want to ask, are there no young people?"

Gary looked at Marcia, his eyes widened, questioning.

In Hollywood, it is similar to TV stations to a certain extent, because the main consumers who go to movie theaters are between the ages of 25 and 49. Naturally, movies often feature them as the protagonists, and the prime age of actors is also generally concentrated. Between thirty and forty-nine years old.

Of course, actresses are a different story; movies aimed at the family market are a different story.

But it is true that it is difficult for young actors under the age of 25 to find suitable job opportunities. It is not that they are not good enough, but that the production company is not interested in producing works with them as the protagonists. Naturally, it is left to Most of their roles are supporting roles.

Gary was very aware of this, but he didn't think it was a problem and blocked Marcia's defense in one sentence.

Marcia looked at Gary's cloudy but still awake eyes, and she felt a little helpless——

She really tried her best.

The problem is that Gary is looking for a young boy who has a bit of a nerdy vibe, a bit of a rock n roll vibe, looks inconspicuous at ordinary times, and may even have low self-esteem; but after completing the transformation, he will be like Julia in "Pretty Woman" and... It can make people’s eyes light up.

These requirements are too complex, too difficult, and even contradictory. It is simply an impossible task. In the original novel, a pen can turn decay into magic, and there is no problem no matter how nonsense you are. But the movie cannot, and the lens cannot. lie.

So, what should she do?
Marcia looked down at the magazine in her hand and took a deep breath:

Maybe this unexpected candidate can bring some surprises?
　Second update. Additional updates in the evening.
