Chapter 67 Fashion Show
They said they would treat each other the next day, but they hadn't confirmed when that would be. That evening, when they were exchanging messages, Qi Yao had to go abroad for something urgent.
There was something going on in Chinatown in the United States that required his personal intervention. Qi Yao didn't say what it was, and Xiao Han didn't ask.
So the dinner invitation had to be postponed again. After Qi Yao went abroad, it would be in the morning here and in the evening there.
The times were different, and the messages I sent her were sporadic.
Four or five days passed like this, and the night before the fashion show, Cheng Xu received a call from Johnson, asking them to come to the company at noon to do their makeup.
The fashion show started at ten in the morning and ended around three in the afternoon. Xiao Han was the finale, so she went there at noon, which was just the right time to put on makeup.
Neither sooner nor later.
The Guyun Dashang fashion show was held in a large shopping mall in Shangjing, which was divided into different exhibition areas inside a building that resembled a bird's nest.
Johnson took great pains to plan this fashion show, and the official Guyun account released the ticket purchasing channel for the event a month ago.
On the third day of the open channel, the prepared tickets had been distributed.
In addition to internally invited personnel, 30,000 tickets were released according to the building's show capacity.
As the fashion show was being arranged in full swing, the exhibition area outside was gradually opened.
There is a small gift memorial area, a designer draft memorial wall, and some display columns for small items and decorations with ancient charm and fashion.
There are antique palace walls, corridors, etc., as well as a signature commemorative area. The designer himself explains the design, making it a special place to take photos.
These venues are also the places where it is easiest to run into celebrities and experts. You never know if the person passing by you is a celebrity who is here to attend the event!
Sitting in the first few rows of the fashion show were ladies, wealthy people, businessmen, and buyers from all over the world.
All the invited people, including foreigners, gathered here.
Next are the celebrities, internet celebrities, and media people in the entertainment industry.
Later on came the various bloggers who bought tickets to enter, and people who were interested in fashion design.
When Xiao Han and Cheng Xu arrived, they deliberately avoided the crowds and went directly to the backstage from the underground garage. Johnson was waiting at the door of the locker room.
He was wearing a Zhongshan suit today, his blond hair was combed back meticulously, his face was cleanly shaved, and he looked energetic, which showed that he attached great importance to this fashion show.
I didn't see Johnlina this time. I guess she was busy with other things.
As soon as Johnson saw Xiao Han show up, his ears pricked up instantly, his eyes lit up, and he took a few steps towards him with his long legs.
"Oh! You're here at last. It's so nice to see you again!"
Every time Xiao Han sees Johnson, he is amused and confused by his aria-like way of speaking. Why do foreigners speak in such an exaggerated tone?
Maybe because he has met him many times, Xiao Han is now immune to Johnson's words.
Xiao Han smiled faintly and walked forward to hug Johnson. Her graceful and generous look made Johnson happy.
The main reason was that Xiao Han seldom took the initiative to hug others. Although Johnson didn't mind, his own Moose greeted him with his favorite etiquette, which was enough to keep him in a good mood for the whole day.
"Xiao, I thought I might never get your hug. Today is a special day."
Johnson had an exaggerated expression and made a gesture of extreme surprise.
"As long as Mr. John likes it, would you still help me with my makeup today?"
Xiao Han covered her mouth and smiled. When she was with friendly foreigners, she would always be amused by their expressions.
Johnson has very deft hands, like a magician. As a foreigner, he can always reproduce the classical headdresses and makeup of Xiaguo perfectly.
Hearing Xiao Han's words, Johnson shook his head and said no several times.
With a regretful expression, he said, "Oh! No, although I am happy to do Xiao's makeup, I am sorry, I still have to entertain my friends who came to visit me today!"
"Xiao, after this is over, I will take you to see him. He will definitely be happy for me!"
Johnson suddenly laughed triumphantly, like a child showing off something he loved.
While they were talking, Johnson led the two to the makeup room.
As we walked along, we saw models and makeup artists wearing various costumes lined up on both sides of the huge room.
They all put on their clothes, put their hair up, and style their hair in an orderly manner. There were all kinds of beauties, which was a feast for the eyes.
"How is it? I found 500 models this time, and it took me a lot of effort!"
Johnson noticed Xiao Han's admiring look and immediately boasted about it with pride.
Because the clothes they make tend to be traditional Chinese style, finding models has become a big problem for Guyun Dashang.
Most models have a strong aura, tall stature and beautiful looks, but Johnson's clothes have a wide audience and can suit all kinds of body shapes, which can show the specialness of the clothes.
The people who come to the fashion show are not only from China, but also from other countries. They are all Johnson's overseas resources and connections. His wish is to display his works all over the country and even the world.
So the models we are looking for cannot just be domestic ones, there also have to be European and Southeast Asian faces, and there are even several with dark skin.
There are even a few models with albinism. Of course, they were definitely not models before, but they were found by Johnson.
It is precisely because it is not easy to find models that Johnson attaches great importance to this show.
The appearance of Xiao Han gave him a big surprise, so he begged Xiao Han to be the finale of his show.
"Mr. John really brought his hobbies to the world. You will definitely succeed!"
Xiao Han nodded. She was thinking of something deeper. Johnson's clothing was spreading all over the world, and the spread of Chinese culture was also faster, which was conducive to the export of Xia country's culture.
Who knows, people above us might all pay attention to this matter.
Johnson pushed the clothes he made himself out of the cubicle, asked two girls to help Xiao Han put them on, then handed her makeup to another girl and left.
The makeup artist who did Xiao Han's styling was the same one who came to shoot the poster last time.
"Hanbao, Hanbao, come quickly. I prepared some snacks for you. They were made by my mother herself. Come on and eat them. I'll do your hair first!"
As soon as Zheng Shuang saw Xiao Han, she smiled so hard that her back teeth were visible. She pulled Xiao Han, pressed her to sit on a chair, and stuffed a box of small round dumplings that looked green in color into her hands.
Looking at Hanbao's gentle smile, her whole body almost melted.
"Shuangshuang, thank you for your hard work!"
Xiao Han opened the small box handed to him by the little fan, picked up a green dumpling the size of a glutinous rice ball and put it in his mouth.
The next second, her eyes lit up.
Really delicious!
It is made of glutinous rice and has a grassy flavor. The filling is fruit. It is not sweet, greasy or sticky. It is small, beautiful and cute.
“Your mom is awesome, this is delicious!”
Xiao Han gave a thumbs up to the person behind him, and saw Zheng Shuang's ears immediately turned red due to the praise!
"Welcome everyone to my fashion show. The next person to appear is my goddess Mus..."
Johnson stood gracefully on the catwalk, using all the nice words to describe Xiao Han, who was waiting behind the big screen.
"Who will be Mr. John's goddess of Moose? I'm so excited!"
"I heard that Mr. John has been in the country for many years and has been looking for his ideal candidate. It seems that this mysterious woman has satisfied him very much."
"Oh my god, who is this person? I'm so curious!"
The Johnson siblings were already well-known abroad, having attended several dukes’ banquets and shined.
They have attended banquets hosted by the Queen, and it is rumored that the designs of the siblings have appeared on the Queen.
It is conceivable how popular the Johnson siblings are as celebrities!
After coming to China, their overseas connections did not disappear. Instead, more and more foreign companies invested in the domestic market.
The establishment of Guyun Dashang has attracted the attention of the younger generation in China, and the Johnson brothers and sisters, as designers, have naturally attracted much attention.
Then isn’t it more curious that the woman whom even Johnson calls Goddess Moose?
As thousands of people on the scene and hundreds of millions of people watching the live broadcast online waited anxiously, a figure appeared on the stage as the lights gradually brightened.
A beam of light shone on her, and she seemed to come from ancient times, with a graceful figure and a calm and elegant appearance.
Lotus flowers bloom with every step, and the floating skirt is like blooming flowers and ripples.
She has black hair and her every move is elegant and noble, with a unique sense of time and space.
Just like an old friend returning!
At this moment, she belongs to the whole world and is the focus of everyone's attention.
With just one glance, thousands of people's eyes involuntarily followed hers. The whole scene was silent, with only the sound of shutter clicks and music.
Perhaps the existence of music also destroys that unique beauty.
The screen of the simultaneous live broadcast paused for a moment, and then the screen was immediately filled with messages like ants, covering the entire screen.
"Oh my god, it's so beautiful, I even forgot to breathe!"
"Same here, my face is red from holding it in!"
"I was speechless for a moment. I finally understood what it meant to turn around and smile so charmingly that all the beauties in the palace pale in comparison."
"The clouds are like clothes and the flowers are like faces. The spring breeze blows through the threshold and the dew is gorgeous. The poems of the Xia people are really beautiful."
"No wonder Mr. John said this woman is his Mus goddess!"
The Johnson siblings stood on both sides of the catwalk, looking with satisfaction at the domestic and foreign guests suffering from aphasia in the audience.
A proud and happy smile appeared on their faces. If they were not still on the show, they might have hugged each other to celebrate.
The minute Xiao Han appeared on stage, the gasps from the audience pleased the two of them, indicating that the purpose of this show had been achieved.
Johnson took a special look at Jackman, his friend who came to visit him from abroad
He is a movie fan and has made many films. Although they were all nominated for the Berlin Film Festival, he did not really win any awards.
However, he is a student of the chief director of Warner Bros.
This identity is enough for him to enter the domestic and international entertainment circles and be extremely popular.
This time he came to Xia Country because he was preparing to start shooting another movie!
It is about the last woman who dominated the dynasty of Xia Kingdom.
Empress Dowager Cixi!
