National Tide 1980.

Chapter 166 The Yogurt Meeting

Plain is always true.

Being able to discover extraordinary beauty in ordinary people and things is like being able to drink the true taste of life in ordinary coffee.

Only great masters can do it.

But even Pierre Carton, who is so wise, with a sensitive and rich inner world, would never think of it.

He actually found a "disciple" in the capital city of this era who was able to pass on his business philosophy.

In terms of exchanging goodwill for people's hearts and investing in favors in advance.

Ning Weimin is like his replica, not inferior to himself at all.

Regarding this point, one only needs to look at how Ning Weimin conducts himself in the model team to understand.

…………

June 1981, 6 was a special day.

Because from this day on, another important content has been added to Ning Weimin's routine of life.

That is, every night from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-], he would go to the second floor of the Drum Tower.

Together with Zhang Shihui, Qu Xiao, and Shi Kaili who came to report on the same day, receiving training from coach Taldo.

If the four newcomers are not counted, there are a total of 24 old members in the Gulou model team.

Especially people like Gong Haibin, Geng Ping, Gong Liqiang, Wu Guoqing, Shang Xiaomei, Liu Yanqiu, Zhu Bei, Sun Ting, Liu He, Zhang Yafeng, and Chen Liyun.

They have even participated in Pierre Carton's debut at the National Palace in March, and they are all "veterans" who have been on stage and experienced actual combat.

So naturally, the training content of the four newcomers who have just joined will definitely be different from the old players.

And because they are in similar situations to each other, they will become relatively close partners.

Of course, they will also quickly discover that professional model training may seem simple and fun, but it is actually a real chore.

At the beginning of every day, they gathered in a circle, and the coach Taldor first had to correct the four of them for their deformity.

Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui were better, but the situation of Qu Xiao and Shi Kaili was particularly serious.

This is not surprising, almost all the girls who enter the modeling team are like this.

Not for anything else, just because of the domestic aesthetics these days, tall girls are not popular.

In the eyes of ordinary people, these selected girls are like deer with long necks, and have nothing to do with swans.

He is too tall, his legs are too long, his neck is long, his head is small, and he is not good-looking at all.

Moreover, due to poor nutrition in the past, girls are often extremely thin during puberty, and the places that should be bulging are not bulging.

Most of them will hide their height because of low self-esteem, and develop a false hunchback.

Therefore, to correct the body, for the girls, it is not simply a matter of learning to hold their chests up.

It also includes how to build self-confidence and overcome the shyness brought about by traditional concepts.

Only those who dare to show their body curves in public are qualified.

After that, a few of them did pace training with the old players.

The model walk is commonly known as the catwalk.

This kind of gait is too different from the way people walk every day.

In the sound of music, it must be rhythmic, very stable, very relaxed, elegant, and graceful.

The requirements for balance and rhythm are very high, and it is not easy at all.

Especially the technicality of the female model's gait is of course the most difficult.

The body should not only stand up straight, but also feel that there is an upward pulling force acting on the body, but it cannot be rigid.

The neck should be straight and the head should be straight, but not stiff.

The chin should be flat, the shoulders should be drooping naturally, the hands should be natural, avoid sticking out the abdomen and pouting the buttocks, and keep the chest up and the abdomen in.

When taking a step, protrude the hips to drive the thighs, then lift the knees and walk out in a straight line.

Swing your arms naturally, straighten your arms naturally, and swing back and forth alternately.

Steps should be straight but not stiff, soft but unremitting.

The key is to do special training on high heels.

That's about eight centimeters in height.

Most of the girls back then did not have such an experience.

It is definitely a challenge to wear high heels of this height and complete the elegant shift of the center of gravity between the left and right legs.

For male models, although the requirements are simpler.

In terms of form and gait, the main problem is to correct shoulder sway.

There are also problems with internal or external splayed feet, as well as coordination problems with the head, shoulders, hips, and legs.

But beyond that, the importance of temperament and connotation is highlighted.

You must know that the characteristics of oriental people are reserved and introverted.

This is good for women to generate soft and gentle temperament.

But for men in our country, it has the opposite effect, and it is easy to cause the problem of insufficient masculinity.

This has led to the fact that many male models have no aura when they walk, even though they are tall and big.

In short, this kind of training is to change the habits one has developed for many years through little practice and little learning, so as to realize the transformation of a sparrow into a phoenix.

Needless to say, in this scorching summer.

Every day when most ordinary people have already relaxed and rested.

A few of them insisted on coming here to sweat profusely, learning to walk by themselves.

One can imagine how tired, uncomfortable and boring it is.

Especially when they joined the team too late, seeing a room full of handsome men and women who had been worn out of shape, they inevitably felt doubled pressure.

After a long time, how clumsy and poor I am compared to how I see myself, and my self-confidence can't stand the test.

In addition, when I come out to participate in training, I have to hide it from my family and work unit. Sometimes I have to tell lies to my family, take sick leave, and control my diet in order to be slimmer.

This makes people feel that it is not worth the time to participate in such hard training, and they don't have to suffer.

So after half a month, not to mention the two girls Qu Xiao and Shi Kaili couldn't hold on anymore, even Zhang Shihui retreated.

In fact, there have been at least twice as many trainees on the modeling corps as there are now.

But often it is because of one reason or another that they cannot persist, and most people choose to give up and quit.

And Ning Weimin, who had been specially entrusted by Song Huagui in private, naturally couldn't allow this kind of thing to happen.

When he found that the two girls were absent, he became anxious.

So I chose a day when several people came to participate in the training, and hurriedly used the excuse of treating guests to eat yogurt, and "held" a meeting of four people at the canteen next to the Drum Tower.

I plan to move them with emotion and understand them with reason, and do ideological work for a few people.

"I said, you three, can you cherish this hard-won opportunity. This is a body training given to us by professionals in the foreign fashion industry. How can ordinary people have such an opportunity?"

"Tired is a little tired, but just three months can make you completely reborn, completely distanced from ordinary people, and you will benefit endlessly in the future. Do you know that you will become the mother around you? You are destined to lead the fashion trend, you Will be part of our country's first generation of models."

"If the performance is successful, not only will countless people regard you as idols. Even when you go out from now on, you will stand in the middle of the street, hey, you will be the focus..."
