Great Artist

Getting a chance on a show doesn't mean winning. Everyone knows this.

The quality of the interviews on the program, whether it can create a topic: grasp the atmosphere of the scene, whether it can attract the audience: the pros and cons of live singing, and whether it can make a name for itself are unknown. Even if Teddy Bell has a full grasp of Gu Luobei's singing ability, the first two points are not something they can control, but Oprah Winfrey's interview rhythm and the audience's reaction. up to decide.

Opportunities and challenges. Eden-Hudson's speech has always been to the point, and this time it was the same, the truth.

Within a week, the plan 1 changed again and again, and Gu Luobei's originally leisurely and unusual April was instantly filled with itinerary. Fortunately, the school's coursework has already entered the preparation stage for the graduation thesis. The professors in the department did not embarrass Gu Luobei. After only one morning, he took care of the school affairs.

On Wednesday, I went to New York and participated in the first radio recording, but there was nothing special about this recording. Both the rhythm and content of the interview were mediocre. Gu Luobei was not nervous at all, and he took it easy. finished.

Although the time was tight that day, Gu Luobei and Teddy Bell still hurried back home, just to take a look at Catherine Bell. When I got home, Catherine Bell was making small

The dress, after hearing that Teddy Bell said that Kate McGoo had commissioned her to make it for Anne Hathaway, Gu Luobei guessed that it should be related to the release of "The Princess Diaries". Anne Hathaway is still a nobody, and there is no sponsor for the dress she attends the screening. Although her agent will definitely be in charge, Kate McGonagall still believes in Catherine Bell's craftsmanship.

Catherine Bell was very attentive when she sewed clothes. The elegant and slender back leaned toward the tabletop and bent into a beautiful arc, the head was tied into a bun, only a few scattered pieces hung down, showing some yīn shadows on the tabletop. Although Catherine Bell is nearly forty years old"

But the indifferent and elegant temperament on her body has been polished by the years.

Catherine Bell was drawing design drawings at this time, and Gu Luobei was a drawing person who naturally knew that even young people would definitely have backaches if they bent there for a long time. It would be better if there is a professional drawing table, but unfortunately there is no home. So when Catherine Bell stood up, she couldn't help but beat her sore waist.

Gu Luobei felt a little warm in his eyes and cleared his throat." "Catherine. "

Catherine Bell was naturally very happy to see her son back, but Gu Luobei was fortunate that Teddy Bell's slightly red eyes were seen by Catherine Bell at once, and she did not explain. The two sons have always been filial. Since school, they have not bothered the family and even worked part-time to subsidize the family. The last time the eldest son came home, Catherine Bell knew that the younger son had tossed an independent music studio by himself, but I can't help but sigh without spending a penny at home. I am a little tired at home, what else is there, anyway, I have been tired for most of my life.

"Have you eaten yet? We still have some pizza at home, do you want to take a little?" Katherine Bell stopped all the work in her hands and asked as she walked towards the kitchen. It's past two o'clock in the afternoon, and lunch time has passed for a while.

The first thing Teddy Bell wanted to refuse was that he didn't want his mother to be tired, and the other was that he would have to catch a plane to Chicago. But Gu Luobei nodded first, "Well, I haven't eaten lunch and I'm still hungry."

As soon as she heard this, Katherine Bell started chattering, "Teddy, I know that Evan has a bad stomach, but I don't remember to let him eat on time. What's the most important thing about work, the most important thing is your body."

Looking at the busy figure of his mother in the kitchen while nagging, Teddy Bell suddenly understood the reason why his brother said this, because he saw an emotion called contentment in the busy figure of his mother. The two brothers spend most of the year at school. They used to be fine. They had winter and summer vacations at home. Since last year, the holidays have become busy and time at home has become less and less.

The same is true today. According to the plan, they can only stay at home for 20 minutes, which is like a task. Even though I'm just staying to have something to eat now, I keep my mother busy and nagging a bit, and the house is a lot more lively.

Listening to his mother's familiar nagging, Teddy Bell's heart settled down, and he looked at Gu Luobei who was sitting next to him with a smile on his face. Nagging was always annoying when I was a child, but I didn't realize it until I got older. In fact, isn't it my mother's love? So instead, he learned to enjoy it, which is what Gu Luobei was like at this time.

Katherine Bell stood by the table, watching the two sons finish the pizza, the smile on her face went straight from the bottom of her eyes to the bottom of her heart. , "The weather in April is still cold. You two are going to Chicago and then to Boston. If you are not going to Alaska in a few days, pay attention to your clothes and be careful of catching a cold." A coat, Chicago is known as the Windy City, and the wind is not small.

After talking a lot, Catherine Bell didn't know that her son was going to catch a plane, but she still knew that they were just going home today. So I didn't keep them, and sent my two sons away after the pizza. Back upstairs, looking at the empty pizza box and some oil stains left on the table, Catherine Bell let out a low sigh, trying to make herself smile to hide the loss in her heart: her son has grown up after all.

On the other side, Gu Luobei and Teddy Bell got on the subway to JFK International Airport in Queens.

"You said, how about we closed the dry cleaners and let Catherine do the costume design?" Gu Luobei was thinking about this all the way when he came here. He got into the subway and sat down, and talked to Teddy Bell. .

Teddy Bell glanced at Gu Luobei, and recalled Catherine Bell's concentration when making clothes, as well as the happy expression on her face: I thought about the kindness in Catherine Bell's eyes when she watched the two brothers eating just now , nodded, "Well, just do it."

Teddy Bell is not worried about the feasibility of this plan, everything is difficult, but he believes that with their two brothers working together, it is possible to make the impossible possible, so he did not even question Gu Luobei This proposal came suddenly and inexplicably, so I nodded in agreement.

Gu Luobei listened, but didn't answer. He leaned his left hand on the ring finger of his right hand again, as if thinking about something, "Xiong, we don't know about the fashion design studio. You're not an intern in a garment factory, go ask the situation. Well, let's see what needs to be prepared."

Teddy Bell nodded, but he started to plan in his mind. He studied economics and was more sensitive to this aspect. "But a clothing design studio is no better than a dry cleaner. It is impossible to have income in the early stage."

A fashion design studio, to put it bluntly, is a designer's studio. As the literal meaning, this kind of studio must sell the designer's clothing in order to make a profit. To give a simple example, for example, when top star Julia Roberts won the Best Actress trophy at the Oscars this year, she wore a dress designed by Catherine Bell, which made Katherine Bell an instant hit, and the order was like a piece of paper. Like a fly, then there is a profit. In a word, designers rely on creativity and talent, but they earn fame.

And as in the case of Kathryn Bell, whether her origins are related to Savile Row or not, her tailoring craftsmanship Kenan walked through hard. If there is no income in the early design, you can also create a **** to do some tailoring and clothing production. However, this kind of work is actually manual work. Even if a senior tailor needs to sew clothes stitch by stitch, it is destined to be impossible for mass production, so it is very difficult to make money.

Besides, the two Bell brothers definitely don't want their mother to work hard. If they accept the dry cleaners, it is just to let Katherine Bell help others sew clothes every day. It is better to continue to open the dry cleaners. Now they have a regular source of customers and life is much easier. Therefore, it is impossible for sewing to become a source of income for a clothing design studio.

Although Gu Luobei doesn't know much about this piece, he still knows some basic information. "The early stage of the studio is quite hard. The designer makes the design and then contacts the factory for production. This is a very complicated process in itself, and it requires costs. : After the clothing is made, it is impossible to have turnover without storefront sales. This is the second difficulty: even if there is a storefront or booth, it is absolutely impossible to increase sales. Small clothing workshops are all Living on small orders from big brands, Kathleen couldn't go that route.

Thinking about it like that, it's really difficult. In this generation ~www.readwn.com~ not to mention self-employment, even white-collar workers are often financially stretched, not to mention the ethnic group represented by the new term "Moonlight Clan" in the past life. So, without start-up capital, everything is a cloud.

Teddy Bell pondered, "Well, I'll go back and estimate the price of the dry cleaners first, see how much we need to start-up capital, and then make further plans."

Gu Luobei nodded lightly in agreement, "It's not urgent, let's first understand the situation, including the factory, storefront, and the studio itself. Let's discuss a plan 1 first, then let's talk about it. "Now that I've decided to do something for my mother, of course I can't let my mother worry about it anymore.

After speaking, Gu Luobei stretched and smiled, "It seems that I need to make more money, so that Catherine can also start doing what she likes."

Teddy Bell smiled and didn't answer. He and Gu Luobei both know that it is very difficult for independent musicians to make money, and the movie's remuneration is not so fast. An excellent opportunity, grasp it, everything will become smooth!
