The fourth brother crisis, the new mission
Hedy returns to the business school.
First, I was praised by my tutor and won several scholarships.
I also learned that the person who made an anonymous post to mock her yesterday was Debbie’s dog leg, and the school found out.
The dog leg will make a public apology and be suspended from school for a week.
Debbie’s own sarcastic behavior was disgusted and disgusted by many classmates.
The school returned to calm.
Hedy’s life as an exchange student couldn’t calm down.
There are admirers of her all over campus.
If it weren’t for Yana’s strong aura, the people who strike up a conversation would surround Hedy several times.
In the next few days, Hedy will be in charge of the kitchen, because the fourth brother Norah will be busy with the graduation project given by the tutor. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
His mentor is an Asian man named Urania, who is well–known in the fashion design industry in country M.
Urania is going to hold a so–called “big show inclusive of global nations“, allowing current graduates to design their own country’s
national costumes, and then choose their own country’s models to walk the show.
That’s no problem for Norah.
Norah likes the traditional culture of USA very much. In the manuscript, there are many classical costume designs of different dynasties and some of them have matching accessories. Every detail is full of the charm of thousands of years.
He picked his favorite suit and sent it to the catwalk, and he also chose the Asian model he thought was the most suitable.
During the catwalk rehearsal, he frowned when he saw the makeup of the Asian models, and went backstage to wait for the models to come
out.
“Is there something wrong?” The female model spoke friendly English.
Norah’s voice was soft, “Didn’t I tell you what kind of makeup you should use to match this outfit? Why did you deliberately squint your eyes and stretch your eyeliner?” The clothes he picked were very grand, and the
model If you squint your eyes and deliberately create a gloomy feeling, it will not be able to set off this dress.
The overall aesthetic feeling is greatly reduced.
The female model shrugged helplessly, “Mr. Liang asked me to change it. He said that all American models have to squint their eyes, otherwise there would be no market.” Norah
approached Urania and asked habitually in English, “Mr. Liang, why do you want the models I selected to squint?” Eyes? My suit–
Before he finished speaking, Urania interrupted him impatiently in
fluent English, “If you came here for this matter, get out, I don’t want- to answer such low–level questions. Question.”
He is a man in his late forties, with delicate features and proud eyes, wearing loose clothes with a sense of design.
“But…..” Norah was not reconciled.
“Get out!” Urania raised his hand and waved, “I really don’t understand, just go and see how many American models with squinting eyes are in international magazines, and think about what is Western aesthetics!” “But these are the clothes of our oriental people
.!” Norah spoke English in desperation
“Don’t speak English to me, I don’t understand!” Urania said that he didn’t understand, but replied in English with disdain in his eyes,
“If you are not convinced, you can hold your own oriental ethnic show, don’t Yelling in front of me.” Only then did
Norah understand that this person didn’t understand English, but looked down on English and felt that speaking English was a shame.
He is looked down upon by others abroad, so he resents his own country, his own ethnicity, his own culture, his own language, and his own skin color.
I think it’s these things that make me look down upon
But I have never stood at the head–up angle to explore what I am actually proud of in my flesh and blood. I only know to obey the aesthetics and logic of foreign countries, and I have never thought of resisting.
Thinking that I have learned the appearance of a Westerner and
integrated into the Western environment, Westerners will look up to me, but I don’t know that it makes Westerners laugh.
Because others look down on you, this is just prejudice discrimination.
And if you even look down on yourself, it is called humble and pitiful!
Norah has seen this kind of morbid mentality many times in so many years abroad.
He looked at Urania with a pitiful look.
Urania was very popular, “| Norah, you have two choices, either, use a squint–eyed model, or run a show by yourself, if your work can get enough praise, I can’t let you Graduation.”
Norah didn’t want to choose the former, so she was forced to choose the latter.
He left the rehearsal scene and returned to the apartment with a solemn face.
Seeing his frowning, Hedy handed him a glass of juice, “Fourth brother, what’s on your mind?”
Andrew and Yana rubbed their stomachs and leaned on the sofa contentedly.
Ellis Family brother and sister’s cooking skills are amazing!
“I’m going to use the money you gave me.” Norah looked at her sister.
“What’s wrong?” Hedy asked.
Andrew and Yana also sat up straight.
“My mentor, asked me to walk the show with a model with eyes
squinted on purpose, and I don’t want to…” Norah told everyone what happened.
After listening to Norah ‘s narration, Yana raised her hand and sneered, “The fist is hard.”
The four of them are all of yellow race, and they have all stayed abroad for many years. They have experienced discrimination, big and small.
Compared with those who discriminate against them, this kind of people who look down on themselves and self–naturalize and reflect on themselves make them even more ridiculous.
“I don’t know why. When it comes to international American models, everyone thinks of people with squinted eyes. It’s not
that people with small eyes can’t be models or catwalks. It’s just that they don’t understand that yellow– skinned people are not only distributed in the USA In one country, why don’t models from other countries squint their eyes on purpose?”
”
Because of discrimination.” Hedy said in a steady voice,
“A hundred years ago, some American people were tricked into country M to build a railway. If they want to reach country M, they need Stayed under the dark cabin for a month, starved out the cheekbones, and could only squint when he came out. Behind this image is the suffering and blood and tears of a nation. When everyone sees beautiful foreign female stars, they are
big When you look at your eyes, you should understand what their real aesthetics are. Advocating high–level faces is even more ridiculous. High–level faces are so good, why don’t you see people doing plastic surgery in this area. They are all people who discriminate against you,
uglify you, and then subtly tame you with words It’s just a trick.”
Andrew shrugged, “In the end, there are really fools in the USA, who are brainwashed and used by the other party, thinking that those who resist ‘intentional squinting‘ think that those with small eyes are not worthy of being American.
These people can’t tell what is natural eyes. Small, and intentionally [emphasis bold] to make the eyes small.”
“Westerners are clearly vilifying American people, and there are American people who are rushing to pursue the so–called Western aesthetics, saying that aesthetics should be diversified, and I give them two words, cheap.” Yana sighed,
“It’s so ‘diversified‘, why is it only aimed at American people?“\”
So, I want to resist Urania and spend money to hold a show of traditional American costumes.” Norah frowns,
“There is money, Where can I find so many models?”
[Ding! Trial mission released. ]
A system prompt sounded in Hedy’s head.
[Trial task (24), Assist Norah to complete this USA traditional
costume show as a model. ]
