Chapter 4: A square inch of land and a vast sky

Mi Chen took a breath and said, "I don't think the public relations director in the starry world has any reason to come and see me in the middle of the night?"
An Yan laughed out of the door: "First, I am busy. I can't make time until this point. Second, if it is earlier than this time, shouldn't you be busy in the studio? Want me to find you when you are busy? "
Meow meowed the sleeve of Mi Chen. "It's so late, don't open the door casually for strangers!"
Mi Chen felt the same way.
"That, I'm really tired! I'm going to sleep! Miss An, let's talk again later!"
An Yan was not angry. She dialed her hair and smiled and said: "Mi Chen, you are twenty-four years old this year. Because your mother is the art director of the international luxury brand KMN, you have been following since you were a child. My mother travels to and from New York, Milan and Paris. You only spent three years in junior high school in China. When you were 19, you went to Paris to study makeup at Mecha Effie, the so-called 'Harvard in Makeup Academy' This school is not well-known in China. Two years ago, your mother and her boyfriend were unexpectedly killed while traveling. You chose to return to China. Am I right? Michelle? "
Mi Chen took two steps backwards, "You ... how do you know?"
"Because I am the public relations minister of Xingyaotianxia. If I want to check, these things can of course be easily found. Please open the door, and it is very impolite to lock the guests outside the door."
Mi Chen hesitated for two seconds before finally opening the door.
An Yan entered the room with a smile and frowned when she smelled the instant noodle soup.
The living room was very messy, and there were many clothes piled up on the sofa before it was too late. An Yan turned around in place and found that there was no place to sit. The assistant who followed An Yan quickly moved a chair behind An Yan.
Meow immediately took away all the dirty clothes on the sofa and sent the soup pot into the kitchen. She washed the soup pot and pressed it nervously against the kitchen door, wanting to know what An Yan would say.
"I think it's curious, why don't you tell who your mother is. If you say it, any large fashion magazine or even a photography company will hire you. Working in an ordinary studio, do you think your style is suitable?" An Yan stretched his legs and looked at An Yan with all his time.
"My mother does not want me to borrow her fame."
Speaking of his mother, Mi Chen's heart hurt inexplicably. She is a woman who pursues love for life, but love runs counter to her again and again. When she finally thought she had found someone to accompany her for life, the two began to travel around the world. Less than a week later, Mi Chen was called to Baghdad to claim his mother ’s body.
"Okay." An Yan exhaled. "People who can say that they don't borrow their parents' fame are generally people who are confident that they have real skills. This is my assistant, Ellie. To be honest, I always treat her makeup Not very satisfied. Old fashioned, no energy, I will give you 40 minutes to change her makeup. If you can do it, I formally invite you to join us in the world. Although we are not a fashion magazine, it is closely related to fashion , Is the dream platform for all makeup artists. If you can make me satisfied, I will give you a starting point that matches your ability. "
The meowing heart is eavesdropping, secretly shouting, "Promise her! Promise her!"
Mi Chen did not expect that An Yan would even send an invitation to her. She was not blinded, but said calmly, "Do you really want to borrow my mother's reputation?"
An Yan shook his head and replied confidently: "I am the public relations director of Xingyaotian. I understand the public's ideas very well. First, although your mother is famous in the international fashion industry, she is an Oriental after all. Did not reach the point of being a true "master". Not many people know her in China. Moreover, borrowing the fame of the deceased will be attacked by peers and will arouse public resentment. I am not that stupid. You have no capital yet I said this in front of me because I have not decided to hire you. "
Anyan's assistant Allie came to Mi Chen and took off her black-framed glasses to reveal a lean face. Her makeup looks indifferent, far away.
"Okay, I accept your test."
Mi Chen still remembers the feeling of putting makeup on Bai Yihan that day. After returning home for so long, she felt for the first time that her brush had come alive. She let go of all her worries, just to make Bai Yihan more perfect. If she can, she hopes that she will remain in this state forever.
An Yan's invitation is very attractive.
"Remove makeup first." Mi Chen said.
Ally nodded and went to the bathroom. Taking advantage of this time, Mi Chen moved out the table lamp in his room, adjusted the lighting, and laid out the bottles and cans he used daily.
After Ally returned, An Yan's forty minutes began.
Mi Chen didn't hurry to start, but looked at Allie's facial features from various angles. Her finger touched Allie's brow bone, felt the lines of her brow bone, and measured the angle of her eye and lip corners. It took almost ten minutes before she started to make a foundation for Allie.
Allie is like a robot. For the next thirty minutes, Mi Chen always kept the angle that she wanted her to maintain.
An Yanduan sat at the same place, examining every step of Mi Chen. She was like a very patient painter, layering layer upon layer of shadow and light on Allie's face.
Until the last minute, Mi Chen put down the powder box and brush, and pulled the hair away for Allie. The wave scattered, and Allie slowly opened her eyes.
"Yes, the time is just right."
An Yan slowly stood up and came to Ellie. She held her arm and did not speak for a long time.
Mi Chen stood aside quietly, and the meows hiding in the kitchen were almost asleep.
"Tomorrow, you come to the 12th floor of Xingyao world to find the Kang supervisor of the personnel department. He will be responsible for signing the contract with you. I hope you can do your best in Xingyao world. You will start with the most basic makeup artist. And I will keep my promise to you, and I will not mention your mother to anyone. Things that are expensive for a child cannot happen under our starry sky. "
After speaking, An Yanli walked to the door and walked away.
The meow in the kitchen rushed out and hugged Mi Chen, "Xiaomi grain! You have found a job! It is no longer a makeup artist who is inflated everywhere in Sanliu Studio! Xingyao world! You will be put on makeup every day in the future They are all handsome men and beauties! You squeeze me! Are you dreaming? "
"A dream is also my dream, not your dream!" Mi Chen said funny.
An Yan came downstairs and lit a cigarette in the night breeze.
Ellie followed her, frowned slightly, and said, "It's just a make-up artist. Even if you are from a famous family, let Lin Ruyi, the head of the contracted make-up artist, just go."
An Yan shrugged his shoulders and flicked his fingers on Allie's shoulders. "Fool, don't you understand the reason why you walk with each other lightly? Xingyao is not a normal place in the world, it's a scheming behind the scenes. But I really like how you are now. "
Aili raised her eyebrows. She hadn't seen how Mi Chen painted her.
An Yan finished smoking and got into the car.
Ink-colored luxury cars crashed into the street lights and drove away on the cold streets.
Ally's face was reflected in the dark glass windows. At that moment, she froze.
Is that her?
Both the facial features and the outline are the most original of her.
But, in the dark night, a fascinating flavor spreads out, flicking the mind, and being accidentally introduced into the abyss.
At this moment, she has both the elite of the professional elite in the workplace and the softness of a few women, which makes her unable to trust her heart.
An Yan's Yu Guang watched Allie staring at herself in the glass window with a smile.
She called a phone, leaned against the car window, and closed her eyes: "Run An, she deserves to be your disciple, and she has exactly the same posture when you are wearing makeup."
The voice on the other end of the phone is like Jinghai.
"The kid went home without saying a word. I asked her for a long time. If it wasn't for you to say that someone used a technique similar to mine, I really don't know where she is now."
"Your proud student is very strong in self-esteem. He doesn't say who his mother is or that he is a disciple of your master. It is very difficult for her to get ahead in China like this."
"She doesn't mention me, probably she doesn't want to be my shadow anymore. She wants to have her own sky, which is understandable. I hope you can give her this sky."
"Run An, do you know what your tone was like when you mentioned Mi Chen?" An Yan asked with a smile.
"Is there a girl growing up in my family?"
"It looks like a broad-minded man's attitude towards the sweetheart who yearns for the flower world outside. You know that her place can't stop her, but you believe that she has seen all the colors. After the lead is washed, it will be Back to your side. "
"She grew up watching me."
"Okay, okay ... she grew up when you looked at it, but not when I grew up. I can only tell you that Xingyao is like a coin, there are countless opportunities to display talent on the front, and on the back A Shura field. In addition, I wish you a happy divorce. "
After that, An Yan hangs up the phone in a chic manner.
"Ellie, where do you say I should put Mi Chen?"
"Become a make-up artist for newcomers. Especially the newcomers we Xingyao are ready to embrace."
"Why?" An Yan turned to look at Allie.
"The recognition of the newcomers is low, and the company is unlikely to hurry them up with big productions. Mi Chen's makeup technique is not a glance at the past and her makeup is very natural. The public is now looking for natural beauty. As long as Mi Chen replaces They have made similar modifications, and we can push the newcomers to some low-cost entertainment programs and live programs. The cost is low and the effect is good. "
"It is said that Mi Chen has become a star-maker. Where do you put Director Lee?"
"Mi Chen has gotten better again, and the company has to give these newcomers a chance to show their faces."
An Yan touched his chin and smiled deeper.
