1202 Behind the glitz
Entering the Sunset Tower Hotel, Renly couldn't help but slightly chin his head, praising Graydon Carter's wisdom..
Graydon keenly captured the psychology of celebrities, showing the differences in class levels from every detail, clearly showing it in front of everyone: first, this is a top party, not everyone can enter; second, even if you gain Even with the invitation letter, there is still differential treatment..
What they need is precisely differential treatment, because this will become a motivation for them to continue to climb, continue to struggle, and continue to rise in the hierarchy of the pyramid structure, and win better treatment, higher standards, and more Many privileges, until you really stand at the top, have a panoramic view of the mountains and small mountains, and experience the feeling of being cold at high places..
Obviously, Oscar night is not only an occasion where such differential treatment is clearly demonstrated, but it is also the best platform to climb to the top. Countless opportunities and connections, countless possibilities and hopes make people work hard and dream of being here. Able to complete a gorgeous transformation.
On the one hand, everyone hopes to show themselves here, and on the other hand, everyone hopes to prove themselves here. Year after year, week after year, this also makes Oscar night the most top-notch existence in the industry..
Vanity Fair is indeed Vanity Fair, and people in it come and go like water. Some stay, some leave, some are eliminated, some are promoted, some shine, and some dim. In the past twenty years, Hollywood has undergone earth-shaking changes and changes, but "Vanity Fair"'s Oscar night will always stay here, everlasting.
Graydon Carter is really awesome.
After entering the Sunset Tower Hotel, before officially entering the garden party, Renly and his party were stopped again. A woman in a suit and uniform stopped them. Her long dark brown hair was tied into a neat ponytail. With a smile but no refusal, he said, "Mr. Renly Hall, welcome to Oscar night, but I still need you to tell me the number of people in your entourage..”
Turning around, the security guard at the door was still within sight, and the bright lights completely blocked out the night; turning around, the woman in front of him was still neither humble nor overbearing, and expressed her position unswervingly..
Suddenly, Renly became curious, "What is the most tedious process?"？”
The woman was stunned for a moment, then she caught the narrowness deep in Renly's eyes, and understood immediately. She answered with a smile, "We need to check the invitation letter again, and check again the number and names of the entourage. , check the arrival time again.”
To put it simply, it was the entire process at the door that needed to be done again; but for Renly, she only needed to check the number of people accompanying her. The differential treatment was immediately highlighted..
“The vanity of fame and fortune! Who is intoxicated? Who is full of desire? Or, once you have a name, you will be satisfied？”
This is a sentence from the novel "Vanity Fair". Before the 19th century, no one could enter the upper class society, because once they entered, a whole new world would open, without invitations or doors, or even I can't find the entrance. It obviously exists in real life, but I can't find the entrance..
This is what Hollywood is like now. Those colorful spotlights and spotlights, those sweet smiles, flattery and compliments, those dazzling clothes, fragrant temples and colorful feathers, make people flock to them and get lost in them. It has become a dream. gathering place.
Renly stood where he was, but he deeply felt a sense of absurdity and ridicule, because he knew that the most important significance of Graydon's solemn invitation to attend tonight's Oscar night was his status as a hereditary noble. , and then became Hollywood and opened the door to the British upper class.
The Vanity Fair in front of him is coveting the Vanity Fair behind him, looking forward to him becoming a bridge to connect the two worlds..
But they are destined to be disappointed, because Renly is definitely not the best choice, even Eton Dormer and Andre Hamilton are better choices. So, if Graydon learns this fact, he Will you be disappointed?？
The smile on the corner of his mouth could not help but rise slightly, and fell into his eyes sparsely. Renly curiously inquired, "When will you arrive at the scene? You mean that there is a limit on the time for guests to enter? This is a new one." set up.”
The joking look made the long-haired woman stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but smile, "Yes, some guests must enter in advance to liven up the atmosphere; some guests must enter later, otherwise the atmosphere may be ruined..”
A fair answer, but Renly could taste the difference..
For guests who enter the venue early, it is not difficult to understand that the smaller the name, the earlier they will enter. The venue will be super hot in advance, and then they will wait for the big names to appear later. At the same time, in order to avoid enemies getting together, rigidly stipulating the entrance time can also be avoided. Awkward, just like the meeting between Renly and Brad on the red carpet at the Oscars last year.
If you guessed correctly, the delayed guests should be reporters, editors, columnists, or behind-the-scenes staff, because this is the first meeting after the Oscars, the celebration of the winners, and the celebration of the losers. Complaints and exchanges with competitors will all happen on Oscar night, and it is best to avoid disturbing such "private time".
Of course, if you savor it further, you can discover more possibilities..
But this is not necessary, because Renly can already foresee the entire system - for example, reporters, the earlier they enter, the more explosive the revelations will be. They may not be willing to report everything, but this is a privilege in itself, and it is also You can use the secrets in your hands to exchange for more sources of information in the future. This is true for every type of job except journalists..
Every detail, every step, every link, the difference in courtesy is permeated layer by layer, and it also pushes the privileged aura of Vanity Fair to a new level. No wonder this place has become a dream destination for the entire Hollywood..
He smoothly took the invitation from Andy. Renly had never looked at it carefully before, but now he noticed that it was a black invitation. It was simple and unpretentious, without any decoration or decoration, but it was solemn and generous, reflecting the It shows low-key elegance and stability, but just such a simple invitation reveals infinite mysteries..
“Mr. Hall？”
The staff noticed Renly's slight daze and couldn't help but remind him softly; after Renly came back to his senses, he couldn't help laughing..
Although the etiquette of the other party is very good and the tone is very polite, small details still expose their shortcomings: at a party that truly understands class differences, the address must not be wrong, because this is the embodiment of heritage and connotation. , which is precisely the key to distinguishing service quality and the quality of participants.
To put it simply, if it is Arthur's party hosting team, every staff member must memorize the name and preferences of each guest, provide services accurately, and do not allow any mistakes, even the smallest mistakes. , Arthur is not allowed, he will be fired directly without discussion..
too cruel？
Arthur does not deny it, but this is also the reason for Arthur's success. Within the same industry, Arthur's fees are three times that of other teams. Similarly, the salary of the staff is also three times. Only if you pay, you will get rewards; strictly Strict system and review, providing high-end services, reflecting real class distinctions.
To be precise, the staff should not address Renly as "Mr. Hall" or "Lord Hall" because Arthur was also present at the party today. For the sake of distinction and independence, the correct title is It should be "Lord Renly". Such small details are absolutely not allowed to appear in the party hosted by Arthur..
Just an omission of a title reveals an important message: Graydon is indeed outstanding, and Oscar night is indeed important, but they have never truly participated in a party of the aristocracy, nor have they truly understood the dignity of the aristocracy. and pride. However, this is also room for them to continue to improve..
In an instant, Renly's thoughts returned to reality and he became down to earth. This was not London, but Los Angeles; this was not a top-notch aristocratic party, but a flashy Vanity Fair..
“There are three people accompanying us." Renly said politely and with a smile, and moved his position slightly, seemingly showing Andy, Roy and Nathan. After receiving positive confirmation, Renly and his party filed in like this. Entering the garden corridor, you can already see the bustling crowd in your sight.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the comfortable expression on Andy's face, and Renly said jokingly, "Next time, maybe you should bring your own invitation letter, and things will be much easier.".”
As a top agent in the industry, Andy naturally has his own invitation letter. However, today he left his invitation letter at home and came with Renly..
“No, no. Trust me, using your invitation letter will make things a lot easier." Andy said meaningfully..
In the entire Oscar night party, the number of black invitations was only nine, single digits, not double digits; and, if you were able to get a black invitation last year, you may not be able to get it again this year. The review is all done again, this is the real top rank.
If you put this black invitation on the black market now, no one would buy it at all. Because just like a black card, ordinary people only know that it is expensive and special, but they cannot truly know the specific luxury and nobility. , they don’t even know how to value.
Nine, there are only nine every year.
After finishing speaking, Andy took a deep breath and chuckled again, "Now, this is your battlefield. I think you will be very, very busy tonight, so we won't stay here to disturb you. Of course. , we also have our own area, don’t worry, you can enjoy it to your heart’s content.”
Before I could finish my words, I saw someone walking towards me..
