The Cannes Film Festival lasted for nearly two weeks, twelve days to be exact, and this was the last day in Cannes for the crew of "Sea Street Diary". As the Cannes Film Festival progresses, there are fewer and fewer people. Today, many of the people who could see the Great Condor every day have left, and only a few scattered people remain in Cannes.
This is because in the last part of the Cannes Film Festival, the awards night, which is the closing ceremony, if the crew's film does not win or be nominated for any of the films, the organizing committee will not notify the crew to participate, so it is not notified until the last few days. Basically They all packed their bags and went home.
The Great Condor and others naturally received the notice and were invited to attend the closing ceremony on the last day. As for the awards, it is still unknown.
The closing ceremony starts at 7:00 pm, and it’s just around the corner for lunch.
"Ha~"
The Great Condor, who had just ran out of the shooting scene, sat down on the white chair and yawned loudly. As the 'Queen' photographer, Masaki Oe followed her and came under the parasol with a camera on his shoulder.
"are you tired?"
Oe Masaki asked.
"I read too late last night. I'm sleepy, tired, hot, and hungry. I'm almost dying here." The Great Condor said while tugging on the collar of the dress, trying to let the heat out of the clothes. After a while, he said, "You should sit down too. Isn't it tiring carrying that thing?"
The Great Condor pulled out a chair and motioned for Oe Masaki to sit down as well.
"Thanks."
Today's magazine shooting location was near a pier. I covered it with a big sun umbrella, sat on a chair, looked at the sparkling sea close at hand, and enjoyed the cool sea breeze. It was really comfortable. The Great Condor couldn't hold on anymore. Today's weather was extremely hot and the shooting took place outdoors. She was still wearing a black dress. She had been being interviewed since the morning. At almost noon, she took photos with the magazine she had made an appointment with, dragging this outfit on. The black heat-absorbing dress makes the big condor almost turn into a roasted eagle.
Finally, the photographer was going to take several sets of personal photos of Ayase Haruka and Nagasawa Masami, and she had to take a break.
"Oe-san, how old are you this year?"
Like friends, the Great Condor began to chat with Oe Masaki.
"I just graduated last year and I'm 23 this year."
"Oh~ He's older than me..." The Great Condor calculated silently for a while.
"8 year-old."
Oe Masaki answered smoothly without thinking at all.
"If you are a few years older than me, I will have to call you uncle, hahaha." The Great Condor joked.
"Well..." Oe Masaki smiled sarcastically, "But you don't look 15 years old, Eagle."
"Um?"
The Great Condor, who was sleeping with his eyes closed, opened his eyes when he heard this.
"Because you look very mature. I feel like you are the sister of Ash and Iku-chan."
"Hahaha, do you fans also call Asuka Asuka?" The Great Condor laughed. She originally thought that the fans would call Saito Asuka another nickname.
Saito Asuka is only 16 years old this year, only a year and a few months older than the big condor. He looks like a child. When he smiles, he shows his little fangs, which is very cute.
Erika Ikuta is almost three years older than the Great Condor, but she is still only 18 years old this year, which is still considered a minor in Japan, so she still has a childish look on her face.
Although the Great Condor is only 15 years old, she is relatively tall, almost as tall as the older sisters. As for her maturity, it is probably because of her face that has not changed much. She joined Nogizaka two years ago. It's still the same two years later, and the childishness on his face has gradually faded away.
"Hey, no, are you praising me or scolding me? Are you saying that I'm old?" The Great Condor calmed down and realized that what he said seemed not quite right.
"Praise, 100% praise!"
"snort."
She raised her eyebrows and stopped arguing. She was also ready to enjoy this hard-earned rest time.
"I am annoyed by the spring breeze... Why is my heart annoyed by the spring breeze..."
In a comfortable mood, the Great Condor couldn't help but hum the song he heard from his mother. Oe Masaki next to him could naturally hear it, but it was obviously not a Japanese song. He couldn't understand what the Great Condor was singing at all, but the melody was very interesting. Good songs have no national boundaries.
Looking at the idol resting with his eyes closed next to him, Masaki Oe had already imagined the future with the Great Condor in his mind.
"Hello."
Just as she was singing happily, a voice saying hello interrupted the Great Condor. She was definitely talking to herself, and the person speaking was right next to her.
Sitting up straight, the Great Condor turned around and saw a middle-aged man wearing formal clothes. His chin was covered with stubble and his hair was specially dyed gray, which was obviously different from the natural gray hair color of Hirokazu Kore-eda. Wearing a pair of white-rimmed glasses, he looks quite elegant.
There is a brown-red certificate hanging around his neck. This is a pass for the Cannes Film Festival. The pass is divided into media passes, market passes, film festival passes and other passes.
The brown-red certificate on his chest is a pass for the film festival, with basically no restrictions.
"Hello." The Great Condor responded quickly.
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and stood in front of the table. Upon seeing this, the big condor immediately stood up, straightened his clothes, and stretched out his hand to shake his hand.
"Excuse me, are you..." the Great Condor asked cautiously.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Shoji Nori, please give me your advice." The middle-aged man nodded and said.
"はい, Great Condor, please give me some advice."
"I know, I checked a lot of information about you."
After saying that, the middle-aged man let go of his hand and sat opposite the big condor.
....This guy can't be a stalker pervert. The great condor thought so.
On the other side, Sato Shizuka ordered a cold drink in the store and prepared to take it to the Great Condor to relieve the heat. She ordered two cups of iced coffee, just in time to refresh herself. Just after paying the money, Sato Shizuka instinctively glanced at the Great Condor to see if It's safe. It's okay if you don't look at it. When you look at it, you see the big condor shaking hands with a strange man. The alarm bell in Sato Shizuka's heart rang loudly. In a panic, she pushed the door open and walked out without even taking a drink.
Sato Shizuka rushed over, running a little fast, the hairpin on her head was a little crooked, and she was panting.
"Hoo... Eagle, this is..."
Panting, Sato Shizuka asked.
"This is Shoji Jiwei."
"I am Sato Shizuka." Sato Shizuka stretched out her hand and said to Shoji Nori.
"Hello, are you her agent?"
Shoji Norie stood up again and shook hands with Sato Shizuka.
"Yes. Phew..." She finally managed to catch her breath. She glanced at the big condor next to her, and then moved her gaze to Shoji Jiwei opposite. She moved a chair and sat diagonally in front of the big condor. Keep it behind you.
"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"Ah, I'm sorry." Suddenly thought of something, he wagged his fingers with his right hand a few times, reached into his inner pocket, took out a small white card, and handed it to Sato Shizuka, "I am the designer of SACAI."
"SACAI..."
The Great Condor murmured, feeling that the name sounded familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen it. She turned her head and looked at the small card in Sato Shizuka's hand. There was no fancy design, just the five-letter SACAI logo, with the person's general information and contact information printed on the back.
"Recently, the company asked me to come out to look for models. The company likes to find European and American people as clothes racks. There are also some things that need to be contacted in France. By the way, isn't it the Cannes Film Festival these days? Let's take a look, "Sea Street" I've also read "Diary", it's very good, it gives me the feeling...um...a paradise that doesn't need a man." Masashi Noriyuki described it while twirling his fingers.
"Is everything that designers say so difficult to understand..." The Great Condor focused on Masashi Norimai, and asked quietly in Sato Shizuka's ear.
Sato Shizuka ignored her, shrugged her shoulders and pushed away the big condor.
"How did you find us?" Sato Shizuka put the card on the table and did not accept it, but she did not reject it either.
"I saw the photos of your crew in a magazine a few days ago. I asked about your shooting location through my friends in the magazine. I think Ms. Dashen is very suitable for our brand image. I also checked it out. You are an idol in a domestic girl group, right." Shoji Kiwei looked at the Great Condor and said.
"Ah...hmm."
"The image of Ms. Dashen is very suitable for the positioning of our products and new products of the season. I would like to take a few photos and send them back to China for internal discussion. If possible, I hope we can have further cooperation, okay?"
As Shoji Jiwei spoke, he leaned forward, crossed his hands in front of him, and stared at the big condor with his eyes, like an experienced blacksmith seeing a piece of fine iron, his eyes full of possessiveness.
"It looks like this."
Shizuka Sato finally understood that she came to cooperate with the Great Condor. This kind of thing is a win-win situation for both parties, and it may be more profitable for the Great Condor.
"I have to ask our company for instructions first, and I may reply to you later." Shizuka Sato responded.
"Understood, let's do that, um... We also have a small branch in Cannes, can you do it tomorrow? I want to take a few sets of photos for Miss Dashen using our products."
"Sorry, I still have to ask for permission first."
After speaking, Sato Shizuka put away the business cards on the table.
"Haha, okay, contact me anytime. Miss Sato, can you leave your contact information?"
"good."
The two exchanged contact information, and Shoji Nori didn't stay long. After shaking hands with the two and saying goodbye, he disappeared around the corner on the street.
"Isn't this a liar? Sato-san." The great condor touched the agent next to him with his elbow.
Sato Shizuka did not respond to her, but took two steps back and looked up and down at the little girl in front of her.
"You give me more and more surprises."
