Chapter 274
When Miranda announced the list of teams going to Paris in the "Flyover" magazine, the high-heeled ladies who originally looked down on Andrea fawned on Andrea one after another.As the most snobbish group of people in the magazine, they had already recognized the fact that Andrea was about to become Miranda's senior assistant.And more importantly, even if they don't want to admit it, Andrea's taste is already one of the best in the entire publishing house with the help of Nigel, James, Jeff and others.Coupled with Andrea's natural clothes hanger, some people even predict that Andrea will become the fashion director or creative director of "Flyover" in the next five years.
For fashion magazines, the fashion director and creative director are the editor-in-chief's right-hand men, one is in charge of the taste and trend of the entire magazine, and the other is in charge of the topic selection and writing style of the entire magazine.Because Miranda has a strong desire to control "Flyover", there is no creative director and fashion director.But with Miranda's grip on Runway at its peak, coupled with her own energy, she's already hinted at resetting creative and fashion directors.And many people think that, as Miranda's most important assistant and most admired editor, Nigel is very likely to become the creative director of "Flyover".Of course, the position of fashion director is most suitable for someone who is familiar with Miranda, and this person must be Miranda's assistant.
Despite their very close relationship with Emily, the Ladies High Heels surrendered to Andrea in this situation.But what Andrea didn't expect was that James and Jeff, who used to greet her warmly, became unfamiliar with her.She couldn't help complaining to Nigel: "Why? Why does everyone think I've changed? First my family, now James and Jeff! Nigel, I'm still me, the Ann you know. Delia!"
"Really?" Nigel glanced at Andrea coldly, "My dear, since the day you started accepting the Chanel we gave away, you are not the Ann who only goes to the discount section of Wal-Mart to find clothes. Delia. Look at you, what's not this season's dress from the greatest designer on the planet? How many girls will be jealous just because they see you in the paper or on TV, how many boys will secretly Treat you as their dream girl? Andrea, my dear, this is the fashion industry, this is "Flyover"! Also, congratulations, after you lost everything, your chance to get promoted is here!"
Andrea was speechless by Nigel's words. On the way home, she received another call from her sister blaming her. Angry Andrea turned off her mobile phone.The next day, Andrea flew to Paris with Milan Dan and Nigel.The glitzy world of Paris immediately dazzled Andrea.Seeing that Andrea gradually lost her heart, many fans who watched the movie couldn't help sighing deeply from the bottom of their hearts.Many people put themselves into Andrea, after all, her story reflects the status quo of many young Americans.Many people think that students in the United States are very easy. After all, there are so many universities in the United States, but it is not so easy to really enter a first-class university in the United States.Not only must one's grades be among the leading 1%, but one must also have at least one hobby that can be achieved, and then there must be sufficient social activities.In fact, the pressure of American students is not necessarily much easier than that of Chinese students.In addition, American universities adopt the attitude of "lenient entry and strict exit", so many students are regularly eliminated every year. Many American students even need six to eight years to complete the credits that they originally completed in four years.
And there may not be a job after graduation, especially those graduates who dream of entering a big city to work.It can be said that what happened to Andrea is something that every young American has encountered or is about to encounter. They also thought that they would stick to their hearts like Andrea.But gradually, Andrea was assimilated by this colorful world, and the so-called family and friendship gradually became less important.Andrea fell there, how many young people who watched movies can say that they can do better than Andrea?
Andrea in Paris found out by chance that the publisher had planned to replace Miranda with a French editor as the editor-in-chief of "Flyover", and Andrea immediately told Miranda the news.Although Miranda had already guessed the intention of the publisher, what made her angry and disappointed was that the publisher had actually found a candidate behind her back.
Miranda, who has always shown her strength, couldn't help but her eyes were red, and she said in a trembling voice, "I see, thank you, Andrea."
Andrea didn't know how to comfort Miranda, so she left Miranda's room silently.But Miranda is not weak, she actually quickly reached an agreement with the French editor, even though she must not like the French editor.To seal this deal, Miranda betrays Nigel.After the French editor announced that she would not be taking a post in the United States, Miranda also announced the nomination for Runway's creative director.To Andrea's surprise, Nigel lost out.
Andrea couldn't help asking Nigel, and the frustrated Nigel sneered, "This is Miranda, Andrea, did you know her on the first day? Have you forgotten how she asked you to replace her?" Did Emily come to Paris? I'm just another victim."
And at this time, Andrea's sister called Andrea, and she said: "Mom is going to have an operation tomorrow, Andrea, do you think it's okay if you're not here? Yes, you My career is very important, and my mother said it's okay. But, Andrea, tomorrow's operation is also very important to my mother. If you don't think it's okay, I won't call again."
Andrea didn't speak. After a long silence, she replied, "I'll take the earliest plane back tomorrow."
Andrea suddenly understood a lot of things. In fact, she didn't love the fashion industry, and she didn't want to be a girl with high heels.Yes, your career is important, but there are more important things - family, friends, and your own heart.
When Andrea and Mirandan offered to resign, Miranda was only slightly taken aback, and then responded coldly: "Andrea, you must know that I hate people who give up halfway. At the same time, you should also know that If I hate you, you will lose any editorial job in New York or the United States. So, I hope you think about it."
"No, Miranda, I've made up my mind." Andrea chuckled as she did just now, "I'm not suitable for this industry, and I don't like this job. More importantly, Miranda, I never That's not the one you're looking for."
"Okay, you can get out!" Miranda said coldly, "Don't expect me to write you a letter of recommendation!"
Andrea didn't say anything, turned around and left with a smile.She returned to her room, packed her luggage and prepared to leave.When leaving, Nigel found him and gave her a ticket, "Miranda has canceled your room and ticket, and even your company credit card has been cancelled, I think you need this."
"Thank you, Nigel." Andrea took the ticket and hugged Nigel for the first time.Nigel, though a bit uncomfortable at first, then hugged her back."It's my way of showing friendship," Andrea said with a smile.
Nigel's help is still very important, after all, it is not easy to temporarily buy a plane ticket from France to the United States.Moreover, Nigel thoughtfully bought a joint flight ticket. After arriving in New York, he could transfer to Andrea's hometown almost immediately to visit his mother who was about to undergo surgery as soon as possible.Carrying his own suitcase, taking off his delicate makeup and pretty costumes, he walked on the streets of Paris at night full of feasting and feasting.Andrea at this time was just like herself at that time—so simple and confident, and most importantly, so happy.
After the camera moved a certain distance with Andrea's walking, it gradually opened up the big scene.The charming night scene of Paris, and then the camera turns white and then cuts to a hospital.Andrea sat quietly beside the hospital bed. The old woman on the bed slowly opened her eyes. Andrea immediately leaned over and called softly, "Mom!"
The lens is out of focus...
As the credits rolled on the screen, everyone stood up and saluted Jed.Although this story is derived from "The Devil Wears Prada", Jed has raised the theme of the whole story a lot.This is a movie about dreams and love, and it is also a story about heart and choice.
Ordinary movie fans saw a touching story. They not only appreciated the glitz of the fashion circle but also saw the simplicity and kindness deep in Andrea's heart; while film critics saw the motivation of Jade's original film, which was about human nature. s Choice.Whether it is Jed's earliest "Thelma and Louise" or "Shawshank Redemption", which is considered to be Jed's pinnacle, what Jed discusses most in the movie is what is the heart of a person, and how should a person face it? on their own choice.Although Jade shot more and more commercial films in the later stage, his creative theme gradually disappeared, but in this commercial fashion blockbuster "The Devil of Fashion", film critics saw Jed's initial filming. dream.
As the premiere of "The Devil's Fashion" ended, there were a lot of comments on imdb and Rotten Tomatoes. The imdb score once reached the 7.5 mark. You must know that an imdb score of 7 is considered an excellent movie, and a score of 7.5 is considered the best of the year. A movie with a real score of 8 is almost a classic handed down in film history.Of course, this score will decline over time, especially since "The Devil's Fashion" is far more commercial than artistic, so the decline will be faster.And on Rotten Tomatoes, the critics' love rate is as high as 7%, and the fans' love rate exceeds 85%, so no one will doubt the final box office results of "The Devil's Fashion".
With the popularity of "The Devil's Fashion", Meryl Streep, who was under tremendous pressure, suddenly became the target of the media.You must know that "The Devil's Fashion" is a pure female drama, and although the first heroine is Anne Hathaway, in the eyes of film critics and movie fans, Meryl is the real first heroine.
Under Meryl's strong position, Anne Hathaway was reduced to almost the same level as Emily. Many people thought that Anne was just the first supporting actress.Of course, Emily, who is still a newcomer, surprised the entire Hollywood with this movie. The agent was delighted to find that there were many more film appointments in a moment.
Of course, he is even more happy that as the box office increases, Emily's dividends will also increase, so his own commission will naturally not be less.
