The world fell into madness; time swept through the storm, and all the bustling heat waves rushed towards us, and then they were swept into a starlight.
The day before, Gao Wen appeared on the "Today Show" live stage and announced contracts with Nike and Wilson to officially build a tennis brand image.
The next day, Gawain appeared at the annual Metropolitan Museum of Art charity stage in New York, entering the bizarre fashion stage for the first time——
Since 1971, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York has held a charity ball every year, holding fashion parties with different themes to raise funds for the museum. This event is called "Met-" and enjoys the reputation of "Oscars of the fashion industry".
It can be called the most important carnival of the year.
This charity event is open to everyone in society and invites everyone to contribute to charity. The invitation letter with a clearly marked price is one of the main ways to raise donations. As long as you are willing to pay for it, you can enter, but the admission ticket is worth a lot of money:
In 2014, a single admission ticket cost up to US$25,000; if the sponsoring brand is willing to reserve a table, it can reserve a round table for US$400,000, and then the brand itself will issue an invitation letter to invite celebrities and performing arts stars to attend.
As the organizers, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and "Vogue" magazine naturally welcomed it with raised hands.
Of course, attending is not just about attending. Every year the red carpet of the dinner will determine a special fashion theme, and invite every guest to dress up and look gorgeous.
This year, as the new champion of the US Open, Gao Wen received an invitation from the luxury brand Burberry, and was able to appear on the red carpet with bright lights like daylight.
It's night, the stars are gathering, and the stars are shining brightly.
When Gawain appeared on the red carpet in a black suit, white shirt and evening dress, in an instant, the flash lights in the entire venue lit up, and overwhelming silver waterfalls poured down. The sound of shutters continued to roar, and the red carpet under his feet seemed to
It seems to be filled with vitality.
When he opened his eyes, there was only a vast white light, and the world disappeared into nothingness. One after another, surging figures spread out along the edge of the field of vision. This was obviously an area that Gawain did not understand and was not familiar with.
Everything is new and shocking at the same time.
Obviously, this is completely different from the scene Gawain imagined——
In Gawain's view, although there is no separation between culture and sports, competitive sports and entertainment fashion are still far apart. This charity dinner has no connection with his daily life, so much so that Tobias told him about this event.
At that time, his first reaction was "Are you kidding me?"
Tobias could sense Gao Wen's nervousness and was very surprised. "Even the 'Today Show' broadcast live across the United States didn't see you nervous. Why are you worried about a fashion red carpet?"
"Because this has nothing to do with my life." As he spoke, Gao Wen also gestured up and down his outfit, which was simple sportswear, not to mention suits and dresses, and even jeans and casual shirts in daily life.
There aren’t many opportunities, so I’m still used to dressing up in sports.
The theme of this year's dinner is "White Tie and Decoration", in order to pay tribute to Charles-James, the most outstanding couturier in the history of fashion, which also means that all men must wear formal evening clothes, black
Tuxedo, white vest, white flap collar shirt and white bow tie.
Decoration refers to medals or ribbons.
The sponsoring brand Burberry personally sent a stylist to select a suit for Gao Wen, and modified it according to Gao Wen's body shape. When he put on this suit and stood in front of the floor-length mirror, Gao Wen felt like he was reflected in the projection.
It's so strange, like someone else.
Moreover, Gao Wen believes that even tennis fans are not very familiar with him, let alone the fashion and entertainment industry. If he appears at the Metropolitan Museum of Art charity gala in New York, reporters and other celebrity guests will not recognize him.
Come out of him:
"They probably thought I was a nouveau riche guy who paid $25,000 for a ticket."
It is precisely because of this that Gao Wen went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York with a relaxed and entertaining mentality, and then appeared on the red carpet in a low-key manner.
result?
Click, click, click, click, click...
The shutter sound only hesitated for a moment, and then erupted with an incredible sound, like a torrential downpour, and the whole world continued to roar.
Two days ago, during the championship award ceremony, Gao Wen had been baptized by a wave of shutters. The roar of the crazy bombing lingered on his eardrums for a long time. At that time, Gao Wen thought he had witnessed the turbulence of reporters; but today
In a blink of an eye, he overturned his own understanding. This was completely a big witch and a small witch. In an instant, his hearing was cut off, and only a long and gentle sound continued——
Buzz.
Both vision and hearing fell into a brief blank, and then only fragments of words could be heard intermittently from the other end of the valley.
"Gawain, look here!"
"Hey, hey! High! High!"
"Smile and wave! Gao, can you pose for the camera?"
"Handsome smile!"
"Champion, change the direction."
crazy.
Besides being crazy, it’s still crazy.
Not only did the reporters get to know Gao Wen, but their enthusiasm for taking photos and willingness to interview was instantly released, making the air ablaze.
Although Gawain has just emerged, in fact, his name has already broken down the barriers in the field and is having an extremely far-reaching influence——
Looking at Nike's attitude, you can get a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg. Otherwise, how could Burberry be willing to issue an invitation?
Tonight, Gawain appeared on the red carpet of the fashion party. His slender figure and well-proportioned lines exuded a clear and unique temperament from the inside out. His sunny and energetic personality that was completely different from Vanity Fair was particularly special.
He immediately became the darling of the media as soon as he appeared on the stage, which truly marked that Gao Wen had taken a step outside the sports field.
An important step! A step from "star" to "superstar".
However, for Gawain, everything is wrapped in a dreamy sheen, just like Alice in Wonderland, and everything he sees is full of magic.
Not far away, Jonny Depp and his wife Amber Heard were bathing in the flashlight. "Pirates of the Caribbean", which once only appeared on the big screen, appeared on the scene.
The novelty in front of him easily broke Gawain's fourth wall.
Movies, like TV, use light and shadow to build a magical world of fantasy, in which life, death, and death are performed as if by magic.
At first, seeing Sampras and Agassi with my own eyes was a kind of excitement. Although they were both characters who appeared on the TV screen, Gao Wen always knew that they were real players who existed in the real world, so he met them
When I do it, it’s more like a dream come true to meet my idol.
However, seeing Depp up close, the boundary between imagination and reality is broken. Although it is not accurate to describe it as "Ye Gong loves dragons", Gawain does have an ambivalent mentality of wanting to get closer but can't help but keep a distance. His eyes
The surprise revealed in it is like entering the movie world.
Wonderful, dreamy.
The whole world suddenly became colorful. This is definitely a rare experience.
