In America, the winner takes all.

Chapter 337 Brazil’s “Holy Trinity”

Since being discovered by fellow Brazilian photographer Mario Testino, Gisele Bundchen has become very popular in the past year.

First of all, she participated in Alexander McQueen's catwalk show in New York, which further established her status in the industry. With her flawless body, slender legs and impeccable face, she reminded people in the industry of that model's appearance. In the golden age, this made Giselle an instant star.

Currently, he has shot commercials for big brands including Missoni, Chloé, Dolce&Gabbana, Valentino, Gianfranco Ferré, Ralph Lauren and Versace. She appeared on the cover of "Vogue Paris", and the well-known British fashion magazine "iD" introduced her with the title "A Girl Called Giselle".

Gisele has just shot the cover of the American edition of "Vogue". This is her first personal vogue cover, and her status in the industry is self-evident.

"It's nothing special. Kate Moss has three pictures. I'm still far behind her. I have to keep working hard today!" Gisele Bundchen, who was walking on the street with Ethan, couldn't help but clenched her fists and looked high-spirited. look like.

Although as a new model, she has achieved achievements that are the envy of all her peers around the world, but she is not complacent.

"Make a lot of money! Buy a luxury house!" She imagined with some excitement.

Ethan, who was holding Giselle's arm at the moment, had heard that Sarah Douglas had done more than 30 catwalk shows for her this year, and it could even be said that she was busier than him.

At this time, the two were walking on the streets of London, and it was Giselle who took the initiative to pull Ethan out.

"This can be regarded as the negative impact of becoming famous. Now I can't even walk on the streets like ordinary people." The heavily armed Giselle shook her head.

She wore a thick mask on her face, a pair of dark brown sunglasses on the upper half of her face, and a large-brimmed straw hat. Even her closest relatives could not recognize her. At the moment, she is wearing a floral dress. The dress itself is just a popular model, and there are not many design elements. It is unremarkable, but when it is worn on her, it looks different from ordinary people. This is due to her height and her flawless figure. , tight muscle lines, and the unique self-confidence temperament accumulated through a large number of step training.

In addition, next to her was Ethan. Both of them were of a height that stood out from the crowd, so it was no surprise that they attracted everyone's attention on the street.

Ethan recommended her to travel with her twin sister to a place where no one knew her.

"It's the same everywhere without you." Giselle said suddenly.

Her expression couldn't be seen under the cover, but she sounded quite pitiful.

Then, Gisele talked to Ethan about the catwalk show by the famous designer Alexander McQueen that made her famous.

"At the beginning, the organizer actually only gave me one pair of pants! Only one pair of pants! Do you want me to be seen with my upper body naked? Fortunately, Sarah and Patricia were by my side at the time. If they hadn't been protecting me Me, if you fight for me, the organizer will not let me change my outfit. After that, the outfit finally became much more normal." Speaking of the scene at that time, Gisele still seemed to be frightened.

Little did he know that it was Ethan who specifically asked Sarah Douglas to go with him. He had seen that catwalk show in his previous life. Giselle wore nothing on her upper body, only the two hanging hair ends covered her body. This was a temporary look that the makeup artist at the time gave her after seeing her cry.

The two were on their way to Buckingham Palace, surrounded by tourists. Suddenly a black car rushed to the sidewalk and blocked Ethan and Giselle. Giselle was so frightened that she immediately hid behind Ethan.

Then I saw several young people getting out of the car, holding photos and cameras, taking pictures of Ethan and Giselle who were hiding behind them.

Ethan pulled Giselle and quickly dodged into a nearby alley, and finally walked into a cafe, only to escape the pursuit of several entertainment reporters.

"How did these paparazzi recognize me?!" Gisele looked very confused.

"Maybe they didn't recognize you, but recognized me." Ethan said.

Giselle was wrapped up tightly and would not be discovered naturally, but Ethan was different. He thought that few people in Europe knew him, so he wore casual clothes and did nothing to cover up.

"Recognize you?" Giselle seemed incomprehensible. In her eyes, it was true that Ethan won the Super Bowl, but that was American football. Not many people paid attention to this sport in the UK. Most people Still prefer the more traditional rugby.

"Yes, it's possible that I received too much attention in the United States." After thinking about it, Ethan only had this explanation.

Giselle then realized that Ethan was now a household name in America.

"Interesting." She took off her mask, revealing a face that had completely faded away from youthfulness. There was an area smeared with foundation from under the eyes to the side of the cheek. It is the most popular "fake sunburn makeup" nowadays. This face It seems to have found a perfect balance between stunning and attractive.

Ethan asked her to call Sarah Douglas and send someone to pick him up.

"Didn't I tell you before to try to show up in public as little as possible..."

Ethan heard Sarah's scolding voice on the phone.

It seems to be to avoid any negative press like Gisele and Kate Moss. Today, Sarah is very strict with Giselle, just like a strict parent, covering everything from food to clothing, hobbies to places to go. Some time ago, Ethan often heard Giselle complain.

"I know, be careful next time." Giselle curled her lips.

After a while, the car arranged by Sarah finally arrived, and the driver took Ethan and Giselle back to her usual place of residence, which was a single-family house not far from the company. Giselle and her twin sisters , including several other models owned by Ethan, all live here.

In the house, Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Isabel Goller are already waiting. They received Ethan's message and are waiting for him here.

"Boss!" Alexandra immediately came over and hugged Ethan with a smile on her face, not to mention how hard she hugged him. Ethan took advantage of the opportunity to give her a kiss, followed by Adriana. However, she was not very familiar with Ethan and was not as enthusiastic as Alexandra. She just hugged Ethan briefly. Isabel Gole then followed the two of them in saying hello to Ethan.

As in previous years, Ethan asked the three about their work progress.

Although the fame of the three is obviously on a different level from Gisele, their modeling careers are finally on the right track.

In addition to catwalks and brand advertising shoots, Adriana Lima even appeared on the cover of the Brazilian version of a fashion magazine called "Marie Claire" last year, becoming Ethan's second-most admirer after Gisele. model.

As for personal life, firstly, Sarah Douglas has strict discipline, secondly, everyone lives together and there is not much private space, and thirdly, they are either working or training on weekdays, so there is not much private time at all, and they are exhausted every day, so the three of them I have been in London for a few years and have never tasted the taste of handsome British guys.

Then Ethan announced a news to the four people.

"This year, I'm afraid you will have to go to Los Angeles occasionally after work. My cheerleading team needs you to make guest appearances."

Ethan plans to let four people be honorary members of the cheerleading team. With the support of these top supermodels, the Angels Cheerleading Team may be able to cause a sensation in the United States.

"Ah? Do you have any money?" Isabel Gole, the youngest person present, couldn't help but ask.

This Italian-Portuguese man is actually only 16 years old this year.

"No." Ethan replied without hesitation.

As a boss who has first-hand discovered and trained several people, it’s okay to have sex for free.

At this time, Alexandra immediately glared at Isabel, who was too frightened to say a word.

"If the boss needs it, of course we are willing to go." Alexandra immediately said with a smile.

Lima also nodded. Objectively speaking, Ethan is definitely a good boss. He is generous and never interferes. Moreover, he has no other additional requirements, such as letting his models accompany him, and treating America as a trip.

Isabel Gole listened to Alexandra in everything. After all, Alexandra was the one who brought her to London, and she nodded immediately.

Giselle didn't say anything, but she did mention Sarah: "This matter needs her consent."

"Of course, I will go see her later." Ethan nodded.

"Where will you go after that?" Giselle asked.

Afterwards, Ethan wanted to find Kate Moss. After all, he hadn’t seen her for such a long time, so he could connect with her and connect with her.

Ethan is the type of person who never lets go once he's hooked on something, and he certainly won't let Kate Moss fly away.

But Giselle asked this, so of course she had an idea...

"Of course, back to the hotel." Ethan nodded and winked at Giselle.

"Giselle." Patricia whispered at the side.

"Well, it's nothing, I just asked." Giselle sneered quickly.

·

After Ethan left, the three models immediately surrounded Giselle and asked her about the cheerleading team. Giselle had a good relationship with her boss, and all three of them knew about it.

"I don't know what cheerleading is, but it won't be too hard." Giselle imagined.

What she didn't realize was that the job of a cheerleader was much harder than that of a model.

"Giselle, how about we go out to eat tonight? You stay with me." Patricia suggested at this time.

Why she tied Giselle to her at this time was naturally because she had been ordered by her parents to keep a close eye on Giselle, especially not to let Giselle spend the night at Ethan's.

Seeing that Giselle agreed, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Little did he know that his twin sister's heart had already flown to Ethan, and there was no way to stop this kind of thing.

·

Ethan met Sarah Douglas in the office.

The two of them are essentially partners, and the cooperative project is the models headed by Gisele Bundchen. Now Gisele Bundchen is very popular, and she seems to be the first model of the new generation, Sarah Douglas Of course I was very happy and reported the results to Ethan as soon as they met.

In the past few years, Ethan had made a net investment and never saw a single pound of money coming back. But last year was different. After calculation, several models combined to create a net profit of one million US dollars for Ethan, 80% of which were Gisele. It is the credit of one person, Erbündchen.

This result is not beyond Ethan's expectation. Gisele Bundchen, Adriana, and Alexandra are the legendary "holy trinity" of Brazil. The income they will create for themselves will be worth billions. production unit.

Ethan earns more, and of course Sarah also earns more. In his words, he also invited Ethan to go to Brazil again to discover local models. It is obvious that Ethan has a unique vision that is different from ordinary people, and he is the real money tree.

However, Ethan couldn't get away for a short time. His current focus was on the club. Sarah Douglas was not in a hurry and said that Ethan could leave at any time as long as he had time.

Then Ethan mentioned about letting a few people be honorary members of his cheerleading team.

"Coupled with training and appearances, as well as the round-trip travel, it may conflict with your scheduled work." Ethan reminded.

I originally thought that Sarah would not agree so quickly, but she didn't expect that she nodded directly without saying a word: "No problem. Regarding work, postpone it if it can be postponed, and try to do it without affecting any business activities. For me, it means more communication, but as long as it makes your job smoother, that's what I should do." When did it get so good? Ethan found that he almost didn’t recognize the person in front of him.

As everyone knows, as Lisa's mortal enemy, Sarah Douglas hopes that Ethan will ask for more help from her. This will only underline Lisa's incompetence. Based on Sarah's understanding of Lisa, when she thinks that after hearing the news, she might Stomping my feet in anger, it was all worth it.

The relationship between Ethan and Lisa has always been hidden deep. Sarah Douglas would not think so if she knew the truth.

"One more thing, now that you happen to be by their side, I think it's better to just renew the model's contract to avoid other problems when the time comes." Sarah said with a smile, this is the real purpose.

"As for the share, I can take less. How about we share it equally in the future? I am discussing this matter with you very sincerely."

"Don't worry, we will continue to cooperate in the future, but regarding the contract renewal... I can't stay in London for too long this time, so I might as well leave it to next time." Ethan said calmly.

Thinking that this brat wouldn't play any tricks on her, and with his current relationship with Giselle, she wouldn't be able to poach him even if he wanted to. Sarah thought about it and had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"One more thing. A high-end underwear brand from the United States has offered a sky-high price to sign contracts with top models in the circle. Many people have received invitations, and Gisele is one of them. The other party has offered a yearly salary. A sky-high price of tens of millions of dollars!”

"Victoria's Secret, right?" Ethan directly said the other party's name.

"Do you know the other person?"

Ethan shook his head: "Talk to me about the contract in detail."

"Victoria's Secret calls this 'angel', which includes a series of work such as image endorsements, commercial activities, catwalks, and advertising shoots. I have never seen this type of cooperation before. It is between a brand ambassador and a contracted model. I don’t think there’s any problem.”

"Then let Gisele sign, but there must be an additional clause. Gisele cannot be required to wear too revealing clothing."

Ethan remembered what Giselle had said before, and added one just in case.

Sarah Douglas agrees.

Models and cheerleaders are consistent on this point. If it is too exposed and kitsch, it will appear cheap. This is also to protect Gisele's personal reputation.

Ethan finally asked her how Kate Moss was doing.

"Brands don't like this kind of sick female models now." Sarah Douglas shook her head.

In the final analysis, it is because of the emergence of Gisele, and now that brands are pursuing traditional "big models", Kate Moss and the type of models she represents are increasingly being ignored. The situation this year is more serious than last year.

"Just in time, let her join my cheerleading team." Ethan said.

Kate Moss is not an honorary member, but a formal member. Although she has been "passed" in the fashion circle, she is definitely a "heavy member" for the cheerleading team.

"By the way, Sarah, I still need you to do me a favor..." Ethan said suddenly.

·

"Giselle? Where have you been?!"

In the evening, Giselle's twin sister came out of the bathroom and found that Giselle had disappeared.

Needless to say, in order to date Ethan, he actually chose to sneak out!

Patricia shook her head helplessly.

·

About twenty minutes later, there was a knock on the door of the room where Ethan lived.

As soon as Ethan opened the door, Giselle immediately jumped into Ethan's arms, then kicked the door shut quickly.

She closed her eyes, moved her whole face towards him, and blocked Ethan's mouth.

The ensuing verbal exchange almost suffocated Gisele Bundchen.

"Ethan, you have to be gentler to me later." Giselle seemed to be drunk, and her body fell into Ethan's arms.

She was actually quite anxious. In her opinion, only those ugly women who no one looked up to, with convulsions in their heads, and women with physical problems were still virgins at the age of 19. This was a scandal to her. But her family members still stopped her.

"Maybe your family is right." Ethan put his arm around Giselle's waist.

"Then look into my eyes and I ask you, do you love me?" Giselle raised her head and stared into Ethan's eyes. She saw her own reflection in Ethan's eyes, as well as a tenderness she had never seen before.

"Of course, but you are not the only one I love."

Giselle held Ethan's face with her hands and continued to ask: "Is she the middle-aged woman next to you when we met in Brazil last time?"

Giselle obviously only met Lisa once, a few years ago, but she still remembers it until now.

Ethan nodded.

"Then you and her now..." Giselle pondered.

"She gave birth to my child and is currently pregnant again."

"Oh." Giselle's expression dimmed a bit, and she lowered her head.

"I shouldn't have asked."

"You have to know sooner or later." Ethan kissed Giselle's forehead.

"If I ask you not to meet her, will you agree?" Giselle, who was kissed by Ethan, asked again.

Ethan shook his head.

Giselle didn't ask any more questions and let Ethan pick her up, then slowly untied the thin belt behind her...

The fake sunburn makeup couldn't hide Gisele's real blush, nor the tears or rose petals scattered on the sheets.

When it was all over, Giselle silently turned over and faced Ethan.

"Can I get pregnant?" She frowned slightly, the severe pain made her unbearable, and her voice was trembling.

"Are you hoping to get pregnant?"

"Of course I don't want to. I'm only 19 years old, and I'm still a kid myself." Giselle turned her head and looked at the exquisitely decorated ceiling.

"Ethan, it was you who brought me out of a small town in Brazil and allowed me to see a wider world. It was you who protected me silently and gave me confidence. You completely changed my life."

"Except for my parents, you are the best person to me. So, no matter what you ask, I will do it." She said slowly, looking at Ethan and caressing his cheek.

Ethan began to become strong, while Giselle began to indulge under the constant mental shock and began to speak Portuguese, which was mixed with the German dialect of the indigenous language in her hometown.

At noon the next day, Gisele's twin sisters and three models rushed to the airport to see Ethan off.

The sisters met again, and Patricia immediately asked Giselle.

"You last night..."

"I..." Giselle lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong.

Patricia sighed, but didn't say anything more.

As for the other three models, they looked at each other. The three of them were mentally prepared. Sooner or later, Giselle, the boss lady, would be the right one.

Although it was time to board the plane, Ethan did not set off, as if he was waiting for something.

After a while, a few people found out the truth, and saw an assistant from Sarah Douglas's company hurried over carrying a cage.

In the cage is a Yorkshire terrier.

"Give her a name." Ethan handed the gift to Giselle.

Although the next meeting will not be long, she still has to live apart in the two places during this period. This pet dog will not make her too lonely.

"How about just calling it Vida? This is the meaning of life in Portuguese." Giselle thought of the answer.

Then several people watched Ethan disappear from sight and began to turn back. The three models couldn't help but be more polite to Giselle, and Alexandra took the initiative to help Giselle carry the cage.

Giselle also accepted Isabel's support. It was a little difficult for her to walk now. As she walked, she held the Yorkie that Ethan gave her with her other hand tightly.

"Ethan is too rough." Patricia accused.

"I asked him to do this." Giselle said, defending Ethan.

"Giselle, you have really changed." Patricia shook her head.

"I haven't changed. I am doing it for you, for my parents and my younger sister." Giselle said. The twin sisters in front of me, as well as the younger sister who is still in school, including the elder sister, will all need Ethan's help in the future.

"So, you 'sacrifice' yourself for us? You are really great. I don't know who it is. You have to talk to someone every week before you want to sleep." Patricia revealed the shortcomings.

"You're about to become as bad as him," Gisele Bundchen muttered, then she thought the Yorkie in her arms was Ethan and knocked the pet dog on the head.
