The afternoon of the next day, Mi Chen told Yu Yang his thoughts.
"Ah? Are you sure that KD sent you an invitation? How did I hear that they sent the invitation letter to Hong Kong makeup artist Tony Young this morning?"
Mi Chen froze for a moment, she quickly opened her phone and entered her mailbox, and found a letter of apology from KD. They said that because Mi Chen had never given them a definite answer, they invited TonyYoung.
"Their invitation letter was only sent for three days ..." Mi Chen felt a little sad.
"In fact, these are excuses. TonyYoung's qualifications and reputation are higher than you, KD itself may be more inclined to invite him." Yu Yang can only comfort her in this way.
Mi Chen smiled, but she was lost in her heart. If you can stand at the new product launch as the invited makeup artist of KD, this will be the most important step accepted by Mi Chen in the European and American fashion industry.
But the opportunity still fell through. If there is no episode where KD invites herself but temporarily invites another makeup artist, maybe she can still go to Milan with Bai Yihan in a relaxed mood, but now everything has changed.
At this time, Yu Yang's cell phone rang, and her expression was very serious. When she hung up the phone, she suddenly embraced Mi Chen with great excitement, "Sei Weng lost his horse and knew nothing about it! Mi Chen! You are lucky!" It ’s great!
"what?"
"Givenchy's new matte light foundation and fine non-porous high-gloss powder will be fully available in Asia! They invite you as a makeup artist on the day of the official launch! They say they appreciate your makeup style! Their Asia-Pacific regional director is also a fan , He bought your "Millet Grain Makeup World"! "
Mi Chen was calmed by the sudden good news.
"Shouldn't they invite a weighty makeup artist like TonyYoung like KD?"
"This shows that Givenchy believes that you have more potential and value than TonyYoung!"
Without any extra consideration, Yu Yang pushed away all unnecessary parts of Mi Chen's itinerary next month to make way for this activity.
That night, Mi Chen pulled Bai Yihan to celebrate.
Mi Chen placed LadyGaga's Pokerface and danced with Bai Yihan in the room.
"Brother Bai! That's Givenchy! It's Givenchy! Lin Runan was also invited by them before! Now it's my turn!"
Bai Yihan accompanied Mi Chen in a circle around the room as if the whole world had fallen into the whirlpool of joy in her eyes.
"I did n’t expect you to be so happy. I thought you won the Asian Makeup Awards, and they were followed by so many fashion magazine media, but these did not make you laugh. Instead, Givenchy ’s invitation letter for Asia Pacific seems to be better than KD ’s Europe. The launch will be more important. "
"Just as TonyYoung is more qualified than me, Givenchy far exceeds KD. They have so many makeup artists to choose from, but they chose me! The most important thing is that Lin Runan was also invited by them to participate in Europe for three consecutive years. 'S makeup conference! Now that I have been invited by them, I finally feel that as a student of Lin Runan, my ability is finally confirmed! "
"I know this way to make you happy." Bai Yihan hugged Mi Chen, his arms were very hard, very hard, as if to rub him into his own blood.
"Brother Bai ... I'm breathless ..." Mi Chen patted Bai Yihan's back.
"Sorry."
"I'm sorry?" Mi Chen hugged him slowly, not knowing why, she inexplicably felt that he was very vulnerable at the moment.
"Nothing." Bai Yihan loosened Mi Chen and squeezed the tip of her nose.
He still had that gentle and freehand smile, which made her feel that even a long gaze was a joy that he did not want to stop.
Givenchy's new makeup conference is scheduled for Hong Kong, and Bai Yihan accompanied Mi Chen to attend.
Mi Chen's live performance attracted many European and American fashion magazines who came to Hong Kong because of Givenchy.
She did not tend to use bold colors like other new make-up artists, and used the color contrast to reflect the texture of the makeup. Instead, she used a softer way to connect all the colors and set the model's eyes like a lagoon. Clear. The low-key color but the light and shadow texture of the delicate eye makeup gives a classic elegance that never fades. The cheeks on both cheeks use gradations of different color numbers to give people a delicate and special mood, showing the long and beautiful beauty of autumn and winter. The color of the lips adopts a transparent orange-red color, which becomes the finishing touch of the entire makeup.
When the makeup was completed, the model suddenly became the focus of the audience, and the appreciation in the eyes of several fashion magazine reporters made no secret.
They even asked how to give a name to the general makeup of this artwork, Mi Chen smiled and replied: "Howabout 'KissinWind'?"
So "Kiss of the Wind" became the slogan of Givenchy's make-up this season.
When Mi Chen met Givenchy's assistant assistant in the bathroom, the other party smiled and said, "When the director decided to invite you such a young makeup artist, I was really worried. But I didn't expect you to completely control our new makeup products. Color, style and temperament we want. Now I really appreciate Li Mojun! "
"Li Mojun ... why?" Mi Chen's heart lost its original beat.
"At noon on the day of the decision, our director and Li Mojun had dinner together. We were going to invite TonyYoung, but DK invited us first. He was very sorry at the time, but Li Mojun said that he did not appreciate TonyYoung, although he had Superb skills, but he no longer has the creativity and adventurous spirit, and he has lost the value of imagination and expectations. At that time, the director asked Li Mojun what suggestions, he only said that he would consider more energetic and take makeup as an art to take seriously Newcomer. So, the director has chosen you. Or perhaps it should be said that among the new makeup artists in the Asia-Pacific region, only you deserve our invitation. It seems that although we have taken risks, the results are really unexpected! "
Mi Chen swallowed and asked carefully, "So ... did Li Mojun recommend me?"
"No, he did not recommend you, but he reminded us that we should use a makeup artist like you."
When Mi Chen walked out of the bathroom, he met DK's marketing executive. As a colleague, he personally flew from the UK to Hong Kong, wanting to get a hands-on view of Givenchy's new product launches.
"Miss Michen, we really did n’t expect you to have such an excellent performance! At that time, when our headquarters in the UK decided to invite you to represent Asian make-up artists to come to our new product launch, I still felt a bit suspicious, so I still I specifically asked a friend of TonyYoung to help convince him to accept our invitation. But now it seems ... this will be our biggest regret. Hope next time, we can cooperate! "
The other party's attitude is sincere. To be honest, Mi Chen doesn't care much about the process of DK letting him hope and disappointment.
She smiled and said, "I look forward to it too. But I am more curious who is so capable of persuading the eccentric TonyYoung?"
"Oh, it's Bai Yihan, the famous Chinese film emperor! Should you know? He seems to be here today too!"
Mi Chen froze, his heart seemed to be pinched fiercely, "Are you sure you are not mistaken? Is it white meaning? Lawrence?"
"Who else is so attractive besides him? What's wrong? I saw Bai Yihan smiling at you all the time today. I thought he knew that Givenchy would invite you, so he helped us convince TonyYoung!"
"Givenchy is because ..." Mi Chen smiled slightly. "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I'm very satisfied with my performance today."
After a few words of greeting, the two separated.
Mi Chen walked in the corridor, and his brain was chaotic.
Impossible, Brother Bai clearly knows she cares about KD's invitation, how could she help them to convince Tonyyoung?
Maybe it was because he had received the news that Givenchy would invite her?
Don't think about it, Mi Chen.
No matter what Big Brother Bai does, it is always for you. Presumptuousness not only makes you uncomfortable, but also hurts him.
At this time, Mi Chen's mobile phone rang, it turned out to be Lin Runan. He will transfer in Hong Kong and there will be three hours. He wants to invite Mi Chen to have a meal together. Mi Chen agreed excitedly.
"Brother Bai, Haiwen is here! Please invite me to dinner! Don't blame me for meeting you!" Mi Chen said excitedly.
"He is your teacher, of course you should go. However, if you still like him, I will be very lost." Bai Yihan said seriously.
"What! I have already let go! The goddess has lost time?"
"Xiaomi grain, I don't want to be anyone's goddess, I just want to be someone's man." Bai Yihan's slightly dangling eyes make Mi Chen's mind very beautiful, and all those careful thoughts trying to open the distance are now dispersed Come.
Mi Chen folded his hands together with a pleading expression, "Then I can eat alone with my teacher."
"Why, what other secrets do you have?"
"Not really! I just ..."
Only a lot of times, Lin Runan will only say when there are only two of them.
"Okay! See how nervous you are. But if you dare to have a little extra temptation to him, I will go to you specifically to break up, including with Ansel."
Bai Yihan's expression is very bad. This is the first time Mi Chen has seen him like this in real life.
Outside the window is an ordinary street scene. It's cloudy today, with less sunlight and a little more coolness. They also order simple packages.
Lin Runan took a sip of the milk tea included in the set meal and frowned.
Mi Chen smiled, "It's not really delicious."
"Let's put aside the unpalatable milk tea first. Now please tell me, are you happy to stay here?" Lin Runan lowered his head and did not look at Mi Chen's eyes.
"... It's hard to say."
"Happiness or unhappiness must be described as" difficult to say ", it means unhappiness. You have participated in so many makeup awards, fashion shows, and even now many makeup products hope to get your recommendation, so do you There are many celebrities on the Internet and many fans. Many film and television stars are fond of your suggestions. You should be very fulfilled by reason. But the people I saw are not enjoying the joy of success. "Lin Runan's tone is flat and straightforward. of.
He seems to have foreseen this ending.
"Is it successful if it is sought after and advertised?" Mi Chen raised his eyes and asked back.
She used to stay with Lin Runan. Maybe some people are eager to get quick results, maybe some are chasing the flashy clouds of the fashion circle, but one thing has not changed. They have racked their brains to bloom all the inspirations, in order to pursue beauty, in order to create more novel and more Profound experience of beauty. And she now sees that she has lost the meaning of what she is chasing.
"So now you understand what you really want? Or at least you understand what you don't want most." Lin Runan put down the cutlery in his hand and raised his eyes, everything seemed to go back to the one he taught her Point her old days.
It turned out that no matter how long time passed, how far she had gone, she was always a student in front of him.
"Haven, why are you always so sober?"
"Sober may not make you make a wrong choice, but it may not make you happy. Mi Chen, you remember that once we walked on the Champs Elysées, in front of us was the Arc de Triomphe. You happily ran in that direction and turned back Come shout to me, Haiwen, I like you. "
Mi Chen was stunned for a long time. She always thought Lin Runan had never taken her words seriously. It was only a trivial moment in his life. If he remembered, how could he embrace another woman so frankly?
"Mi Chen, that's the most touching confession I've heard. It's so simple that there are no flaws. But I can't have it."
"Why?" Mi Chen looked at Lin Runan in surprise.
"Because I know, it's not love." Lin Runan stretched out his arm, his fingertips nodded at Mi Chen's brow, "I think, now you should be able to tell me what that is."
Mi Chen's heart trembled, and she suddenly understood Lin Runan's forbearance and his betting on her more serious emotions than love.
"That's dependent."
Lin Runan smiled, his lip line broke free of all restraints. Everything he did for her was put into the smile at the moment.
"Because you know, you are silent." Mi Chen's eyes were sour, but she didn't let her tears fall, because she had no reason to cry, "So we are real teachers and students now?"
"Yes, we are teachers and students."
Between them, she was more simple than her confession to him that day.
Mi Chen suddenly remembered that a long time ago, Lin Runan took her to the Rodin Museum. They stood in front of Camille's work, Lin Runan held Mi Chen's hand, not loose or tight, but she would never let her go out of his sight.
Mi Chen asked him very puzzled that Rodin insisted that he must display Camille's works in his museum until his death, so why can't he love Camille wholeheartedly and choose another woman?
At that time, what Lin Runan said, Mi Chen did not understand:
Because the crazy chase and possession of the teacher will destroy her. Maybe Rodin knew long ago that if he always kept the simplest artistic exchange with Camille, then Camille's talent would not be broken into bleak star dust by crazy love.
"Mi Chen, now you understand that you are dependent on me. Then you have to think about the rest. My studio is always open for you. Whenever you make a decision, it is not too late."
This is an invitation from Lin Runan. The last time she decided to stay in China, what about now?
Farewell to Lin Runan, Mi Chen returned to the hotel, sitting by the bed, watching Bai Yihan pack her home luggage for her.
He is really a good man at home, no woman will refuse?
Only she, an idiot, always wanted to distance herself from him ...
Bai Yihan's side face, and the concentrated expression of his falling eyes, all of this seems unreal.
He found Mi Chen looking at himself dreamily, so he smiled. The whole world seems to sink into a warm sea.
"What's the matter? Keep looking at me in a daze. Have you had a good chat with Lin Runan today?"
"He ... invited me to Europe." Mi Chen said.
Bai Yihan put down something in his hand and turned to sit side by side with Mi Chen. "So what do you think?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. Brother Bai, what do you think?"
"I ’m glad you asked me for my opinion, but I ca n’t make a decision for you. I can only say that you must think about everything before you go. In China, your career is on the rise. It ’s not a problem to surpass TonyYoung in five years. But once you go to Europe, everything will start from scratch. If you have not been recognized by the European and American fashion industry, when you decide to return to China, not only will some people think you are in Europe ca n’t mix up, so come back, and the light you originally had was replaced by other young people. Are you ready for this? "
Mi Chen lowered his head to silence.
I don't know why, there is a loss in her heart, empty, as if there was a cold wind blowing. She knew that Bai Yihan was thinking for her and worried that she would be hurt. His experience is richer than hers, so he thinks more naturally.
Suddenly, Mi Chen's head was knocked. She looked up and saw Bai Yihan approaching with a smile, and her forehead met her. "But Xiaomi Gu, once a person loses the courage to forge ahead, then the pattern he can have Only these. "
Mi Chen closed her eyes, Bai Yihan was warm and comfortable, but there was always something in her heart that was eager to try, faintly hoping to break away from everything and spread her wings.
Back at Xingyuan's apartment, Mi Chen finally had a few days of leisure vacation. She could sit at home and watch TV comfortably, and even made a few conscience dinners for Miao Miao. After dinner, Mi Chen and Miao Miao paralyzed on the sofa, feeling a daze touching the round belly.
"Xiaomi grains, I think Bai Yihan really cares about you, he will accompany you wherever you go, so enviable!"
When Meow mentioned so, Mi Chen realized that Bai Yihan seemed to have been by his side, no matter what she did or where she was, as if everything about him was spinning around her.
"Will suddenly one day he confess to you again and then propose marriage ... you promised him to go with him ... then I can't live here anymore."
"Proposal? What are you thinking about?" Mi Chen pushed meow fiercely.
"Ouch! You heard that Bai Yihan might propose to you, aren't you happy at all? I think this is very possible! I always feel that Bai Yihan can't hold you around 24 hours a day!"
At that moment, Mi Chen had an inexplicable fear in her heart.
Meowing her eyes at Mi Chen, she suddenly patted her, "Hey, I said what happened to you?"
"Nothing ... Meow, I still have no way to like Brother Bai completely."
Meowed for a while, then pushed Mi Chen amusedly, "It's not that Bai Yihan hurts you, don't you get rid of it! What else do you like so much? You are not a to Bai Yihan. The obsession of the male god, he is not a boring pastime for you, on the contrary, he is so serious that the people and the gods are indignant. All the vigorousness and those wind and snow are movies, not life. "
"Maybe ... this is it ..."
Mi Chen's life resumed his busy pace again, but the layout of the magazine interview was more obvious. Those cumbersome programs were canceled and replaced by more high-end makeup activities. Sometimes when they meet their peers, they will hear them jokingly say "Mi Chen, your limelight will soon overtake TonyYoung" and the like.
Whenever I heard such words, Mi Chen felt a little sadness in her heart. What she wanted was not "thinking", but a real world of makeup. However, no one seemed to understand her thoughts.
Standing on the top floor of Xingyao, Mi Chen's hands clasped in his pockets, looking up at the sky.
Today's daylight is very good and warm, making her want to stay motionless.
She suddenly remembered that day she and Li Mojun were standing on the roof.
If Li Mojun, what would you say to her? Stay in China, or bravely accept Lin Runan's invitation to go to Europe?
Li Mojun once said that when you yearn for the sky, don't forget that the land under your feet is more stable.
But Li Mojun's "stableness" never means comfort, but under the influence of fame and fortune, don't forget the most original self.
For her, what is the most original self?
Mi Chen's slightly cool fingertips gradually warmed up, and she dialed Bai Yihan's phone.
"Hey, what's wrong with the rice?"
Mi Chen took a breath. She believed that no matter what decision she made, Bai Yihan would support her.
"Brother Bai! I'm going to Europe! I want to go to Europe!"
"... Mi Chen? Do you speak slower? Why did you suddenly decide to go to Europe?" Bai Yihan's voice paused slightly, a little cold, but gradually softened again.
"Brother Bai, I still remember the days when I was next to Haiwen! I remember the expressions of makeup artists, their movements, and their eager pursuit of beauty! Every base makeup and every color combination is to outline The most extreme style, in order to be dazzled for a lifetime but perhaps unforgettable! But I ca n’t find it here! Brother Bai! There is nothing here ... "
"Mi Chen, where are you now?"
"I am on the top of Xingyao!"
"You are waiting for me there."
Bai Yihan's phone hung up, and Mi Chen was standing in the same place. She felt that after she said those words, everything in front of her was as clear as it was split.
Her body is still trembling slightly, but at that moment, her brain is also very clear, she is sure and sure what she really wants.
After hanging up the phone with Bai Yihan, who was discussing the script role with a director, he said to the director, "Sorry, I have something very important!"
He almost ran away, leaving the surprised director and helpless Fang Chengye.
When he just stepped into the elevator door, he was facing Li Zhezhe's expression with his arms laughing.
"It's so rare to see you panicking."
All expressions on Bai Yihan's face disappeared.
"What's the matter? Is your dear Mi Chen about to be out of your control? You want to give her everything like Xie You and trap her beside her. She has only two results, either struggling or suffocating. I was thinking, would one day, Mi Chen, like Xie You, take half a bottle of sleeping pills just to get rid of you? "
The elevator door opened and Bai Yihan walked out coldly.
"Li Zhezhe, don't forget, you gave Xie You that bottle of medicine!"
"But the choice to eat or not depends on her! Bai Yihan, are you pushing yourself into desperation again? You spoiled her as a princess and gave her the most magnificent castle, countless people admired the praise. You want to use this to keep her, but have you ever thought about it, she got it too easy, so she will yearn more for the world outside the castle! "
"This is my business."
Bai Yihan drove away in his car.
Coming to the star building, he glanced at everyone's eyes, ran into the elevator, and rushed up to the top floor. Then, she saw Mi Chen standing on the empty top floor, and seemed to go away at any time.
The sun is falling, it is grace from the sky.
"Michen!"
Bai Yihan called out.
"Big Brother Bai!" Mi Chen turned around, her eyes flashing with bright spots of flutter, running towards him, almost jumping into his arms.
During that shock, Bai Yihan could hardly bear to stagger back two steps.
"Xiaomi grains, did you really think about it?" Bai Yihan's fingers were embedded in her hair, pressing her head into her arms.
"I think about it! It should be said that I have been thinking for a long time! Brother Bai, what I want is not success! It is not envied by others! Nor is it what others call me a teacher or a master! I just want to do what I want to do. There are people like me there who can communicate with me! They can inspire me and make me the person I want to be! "
"Mi Chen, you think it's beautiful because you were just a student at that time. It was Lin Runan who was really thorny in front of you, so you can dream what you want."
"Then it's my turn now to go through the thorns! Brother Bai, I know you are worried that I'm going to hit my head and break the bloodstream, but only by doing it will I know if it is or not what I want! I will cherish myself more Everything! "
With an illusion, Mi Chen felt that she was about to be crushed by Bai Yihan.
"You give me some time to deal with things here, I will accompany you."
Mi Chen froze. She did not expect Bai Yihan to intend to put down everything and follow her.
"Brother Bai! No! I never thought you want to let go of everything! Fashion Week or Makeup Press Conference are all my choices and my life! I believe you have your plan too! Either continue to play the movie or not, I hope you can stick to your own path and not be influenced by me! "
How could she let Bai Yihan give up everything for her!
"Fool, don't you have the courage to start again? I have already been in the United States. Now I change my taste and see if I can capture the French film industry?"
It was at this moment that Mi Chen really considered how important Bai Yihan saw her, and all her decisions were also related to Bai Yihan. What she was about to choose was a road that didn't know where to go, and Bai Yihan had to put everything down from scratch in order to be with her.
Mi Chen's guilt is overwhelming, she thinks everything is too simple and too selfish!
"Mi Chen, listen!" Bai Yihan's hands supported Mi Chen's face and said very seriously, "Now I am not doing what I want to do, so I understand your mood! I I wanted to act, but I was trapped by the shares left by Dynasty Pictures and Shen Liangyan. I wanted to throw away everything here, and now I finally found the reason. And just like you feel, I There seems to be nothing worth pursuing here! Since there are no more attachments, the rest are all troublesome things, why should I stay? "
Mi Chen wiped her tears and burst into tears.
Bai Yihan spoiled her head indulgently. "Now I feel that the sky is vast now?"
Mi Chen covered her forehead, she was not blinded by Bai Yihan's efforts.
She took a step back, "Big Brother Bai."
Bai Yihan frowned, "You know I don't like you backing in front of me."
"I am not a child anymore, maybe I am ignorant and weak, but as long as it is the path I choose, I will bear all the consequences. But I don't want you to do the same for me. I don't want to control your life."
"Mi Chen, my life has always been in my own hands." Bai Yihan's smile was still indifferent, as if what he was about to give up was basically insignificant to him.
"Brother Bai, don't make such a decision easily."
Mi Chen's eyes were heavy.
Shen Zhibai Yihan looked at Mi Chen for the first time with equal eyes, not spoiling or looking at girls.
"Don't worry about me. Do what you want to do."
Although he made up his mind, there are still many things that Mi Chen must do before going. For example, her contract with Xingyao, such as Yu Yang, a broker, and even she had to discuss everything with Lin Runan. Almost every day, Mi Chen would communicate with Lin Runan, discussing the plan after going there.
But such excitement was wiped out by a pot of cold water in less than two weeks.
Lin Runan ’s work at a make-up award in Florence was allegedly plagiarized by Sebrina, a makeup artist at DK Makeup. This incident exploded in the European fashion industry. With Lin Runan's ability and qualifications, there is no need to embezzle the ideas of others. But Sebrina took out his work in a second-line make-up magazine three months ago, no matter from the concept, conception or even the final effect, especially the swallowtail makeup at the corner of the eye, it can be said to be 100% More than eighty are similar.
