Chapter 269

"Tell me, what exactly happened?" Seifert came to Fred's room and asked.

At the hotel rendezvous, he had already discovered that Fred's state was wrong—spiritless and listless.

That appearance was just as weak as when he was young and had been high all night at a bar, trembling in the cold wind after coming out.

"Miss Luo Quan saw that I liked her." Fred's tone was filled with exhaustion and sadness.

"That's not surprising at all. And then, did you take the opportunity to confess to her?"

Fred curled up on the bed: "No, she didn't even give me the chance to confess. She told me directly that we have no possibility of further development and can only be friends. She even wrote a song afterwards."

Needless to say, Seifert knew it was that one, 'Auld Lang Syne'. Miss Luo Quan really managed to think of that.

"Actually, you don't have to take it too much to heart. Miss Luo Quan said a long time ago that she wouldn't consider romantic relationships. I also told you before that the possibility of you winning her over is not high.

At least, you can still be friends now."

Fred suddenly flipped over and stared at Seifert: "You are also her friend. Have you never had any fantasies about her?"

"Are you kidding? That is the most beautiful woman in the world; how could I have never had any?" Seifert said with a righteous face, "However, things like daydreaming aren't illegal, and there are so many beautiful girls in the world. If every boy could win the favor of the girl he loves, there wouldn't be so many bachelors in the world, right?

Besides, Miss Luo Quan also made it very clear: she won't consider it before thirty, and will see the situation after thirty.

Although no one can guarantee that she can remain single until thirty, at least up to now, she has always kept her promise. Even when facing a boy as excellent as you, she hasn't wavered in the slightest."

"If I were really excellent, I wouldn't have been rejected so quickly." Seifert lowered his head in disappointment again.

In the past, he was not a sentimental person, nor was he someone who cared about others' opinions.

But ever since being rejected by Miss Luo Quan, he discovered that his previous indifference was just because he hadn't met someone he cared about yet.

So much so that his image had always appeared a bit sloppy. It's a bit late to adjust now, but he felt that he still needed to make some changes.

Originally, he had wanted to have more stories with Miss Luo Quan on this trip, but it ended up becoming an accident. The depressed mood still needs a lot of time to adjust.

Fortunately, he is not a narrow-minded person, and he won't go down a dead end because of this setback.

After resting for a night, Miss Luo Quan and Seifert went to the set to gather. Fred, however, didn't go together.

Saying the company had something to do, he was actually still a bit embarrassed to face Miss Luo Quan.

The plot of the first part of The Lord of the Rings, 'The Fellowship of the Ring', basically all takes place in the wild. Some need to be filmed with green screens, while others need to be filmed directly outdoors.

Fortunately, the war scenes in the first movie are not large, and the number of extras and props needed is not particularly large.

But trekking over mountains and through ravines is not easy either, so the first day made all the leads suffer.

After arriving at the filming location, the scenes for the main cast began.

As for Miss Luo Quan, she was still relatively early.

In this part, the two roles she plays—the Elf Queen and the Elf Princess—have half of their scenes performed in front of a green screen without physical objects, which is a certain test of acting skills, but not a big one.

Then there is the need to film horse scenes, which is a difficult point for someone who has never ridden a horse.

In addition, for the sake of realism, Director Ford required her to use Elvish in many lines in the script, which is the language created by Mr. Tolkien himself.

It's quite a mouthful, but fortunately, there are only a few sentences to memorize. The key is to speak it with a sense of beauty.

For her, who majored in linguistics, this is not a difficult task. As for the horse scenes, redeeming a horse-riding specialization will do.

It's just that it's definitely impossible to show such ability overnight; that would be too shocking.

So Miss Luo Quan is currently completing the learning tasks given to her by Director Ford at a speed that is neither fast nor slow.

While learning, she is also enjoying the beautiful scenery of New Zealand.

During this period, she took quite a few landscape photos, as well as behind-the-scenes photos of the male actors filming, which can be considered as a souvenir.

After learning for about a week, Miss Luo Quan felt she was ready and demonstrated her skillful horse-mounting technique. From then on, driving the horse forward and even galloping were all a piece of cake.

"Learned it so quickly?" Director Ford expressed that he couldn't understand. Where does this level look like a beginner?!

"Maybe I'm very talented." Miss Luo Quan brushed it off with one sentence. Basically, all bizarre phenomena can be explained with this sentence, and others can't refute it.

After hearing that Miss Luo Quan's "Elvish" was also spoken quite well, Director Ford had to admit that there are indeed geniuses in this world, and they are the kind of geniuses who are good at everything.

Since the female lead was ready, the filming for her scenes began.

The first scene was the shot of the Elf Queen.

This required coordination with the green screen, and there were quite a few lines. The rest was all about how to highlight Miss Luo Quan's stunning beauty.

Because Miss Luo Quan played the Elf Queen, who is the grandmother of the Elf Princess Arwen, in order to distinguish the two, the director asked the makeup artist to give Miss Luo Quan a cool-toned makeup look.

When Miss Luo Quan was performing, her style would also be a bit more cold and aloof.

Just like the situation with Wolf Warrior 2, it passed in one take.

Director Ford expressed that he had never directed such a worry-free actress.

After putting on makeup, Miss Luo Quan wore a long dress in the style of an ancient Greek goddess. She was simply breathtakingly beautiful in front of the camera. Besides that, her graceful posture, ethereal and pleasant voice, and clear and moving eyes all made everyone present feel that watching her perform was a kind of enjoyment.

Miss Luo Quan stunned everyone on the first day playing the Elf Queen, and on the second day, she moved everyone with her horsemanship playing the Elf Princess.

Miss Luo Quan's performance didn't look like an actress at all; she was like a character who had walked out of the book—she was the Elf Princess herself.

The filming proceeded incredibly smoothly. In just a few days, her scenes in this movie were basically finished.

Some of the audio recorded on site can be used, but if the goal is to pursue the ultimate effect, it is possible to have her record it again in post-production.

However, this did not affect the progress. In short, her last scene was already coming to an end.

From arriving in New Zealand to wrapping up today, a total of eleven days had passed, four days faster than the half a month she had estimated. This progress was indeed very fast.

On the hillside, Miss Luo Quan finished the last paragraph of her lines under the gaze of the people.

Director Ford rarely gave a thumbs up, expressing his praise for Miss Luo Quan.

"Cut!"

"Congratulations, it's a wrap."

The other actors congratulated Miss Luo Quan one after another.

"Thank you, everyone." Miss Luo Quan smiled slightly.

Just at this moment, Miss Luo Quan's dress suddenly fluttered up.

A wisp of breeze, like a mischievous child, lifted the hem of her dress.

Miss Luo Quan still had a smile on her face, preparing to thank the crew, but her hands had already pressed down in a hurry.

The photographer suddenly had a flash of inspiration. On the machine that hadn't stopped recording yet, he hurriedly pressed the shutter, recording this scene.

"This wind is really not a gentleman." Director Ford made a joke.

Miss Luo Quan didn't act coy either and laughed along. Fortunately, she was wearing safety shorts.

This was a small episode on set. After wrapping up, Director Ford arranged for someone to send Miss Luo Quan to the center of Auckland.

Fred and Seifert had left long ago, and Miss Luo Quan had also booked her flight back early last night.

Early the next morning, Miss Luo Quan, who had slept on the plane, finally returned to her home country.

As soon as she turned on her phone after getting off the plane, she received quite a few push notifications.

After being silent for ten days or so, her name appeared on the Weibo hot search again, and there was more than one!

"Miss Luo Quan's 'Lord of the Rings' wraps up!"

"Miss Luo Quan's behind-the-scenes photos!"

"Miss Luo Quan's stance."

"Humanity's ultimate beauty."

A full four related items.

The first one was a reprint of news from foreign media, which was about her trip to New Zealand this time—the scenes were basically finished, and everyone on the crew praised her highly.

And the second hot search was some behind-the-scenes photos of her filming. One was her walking slowly from the forest, her eyes cold and aloof, like a goddess independent of the world.

One was her clinging to the horse's back, galloping on the grassland, heroic and spirited.

There was also one on a hillside, where the soft hem of her dress rose due to the wind, and Miss Luo Quan smiled and lowered her head to press down on the hem, her legs subconsciously closed inward.

The scene was so beautiful that it made people sigh, as unreal as a dream.

A comment in the comment section that quoted a poem received 40,000 likes:

"Most of all, that gentleness of lowering the head,

Like a water lily shyly unable to bear the cool breeze."

Besides being apt, I don't know how else to evaluate it.

And the third hot search was related to this third photo.

Because the behind-the-scenes photos were first released abroad, foreign netizens naturally also longed for and praised Miss Luo Quan's beautiful photos.

And some girls had a sudden whim to imitate Miss Luo Quan's posture, using artificial wind to replicate this scene.

The same posture, the same expression, just the clothes and the person were different.

After filming, they posted it to TikTok and Ins, calling it "LuoQuan'sStandingposture".

Translated, it is "Miss Luo Quan's stance". In just a few hours, a nationwide imitation wave had already started abroad, including many international female stars.

People all felt that this posture of Miss Luo Quan displayed the gentleness, shyness, gracefulness, and even sexiness of women to the fullest.

Don't think that only showing a lot of skin is sexy. Being able to show charm with a pure appearance and evoke people's purest desires is the true sexiness.

And Miss Luo Quan, or rather "Miss Luo Quan's stance", embodied this point very well.

Of course, these were actually all things that outsiders made up in their own minds.

At that time, how could she have thought of so much? She was just afraid of a wardrobe malfunction and was quick-witted.

Being able to have such an aesthetic picture was still the photographer's credit.

However, people have two sides to their mouths. In this world, when many people say something, it slowly becomes the truth and can even be sought after by countless people.

In an era where the internet is so developed, something only needs an opportunity to become popular.

And "Miss Luo Quan's stance" was just a lucky product under the background of this great era.

Imitations started overwhelmingly abroad. Girls who love beauty and are willing to show their beauty started to replicate this posture in almost every suitable place.

And Weibo also reported on this phenomenon here. I believe it won't be long before a large group of imitators will immediately appear in the country.

And the fourth hot search, "Humanity's ultimate beauty", can be considered a summary of the previous three hot searches; it is a description of Miss Luo Quan.

Actually, in the internet environment where adjectives are gradually becoming scarce, Miss Luo Quan has already seen similar adjectives countless times.

Some were describing her, and some were describing other female stars.

This is not anyone's exclusive noun; everyone can use it, it's just that it seems more apt when used for Miss Luo Quan.

But after today, "Humanity's ultimate beauty" will become a thing of the past.

Miss Luo Quan's beauty no longer needs any language to describe, and she herself has become a standard of beauty, a kind of adjective.

Just like the only indicator of handsomeness in the minds of boys—Yan Zhu. Many boys hope they can be as handsome as Yan Zhu, and netizens also add the suffix "Yan Zhu" after their place of residence.

According to incomplete statistics, Bilibili alone has hundreds of thousands of "Yan Zhu branches", and Weibo is blooming everywhere.

And Miss Luo Quan became the benchmark for beauty in the minds of girls today. Everyone hopes they can possess beauty like Miss Luo Quan's.

For her, this can be considered progress.

At least she can get rid of those adjectives that she has already heard until her ears have grown calluses.

And on Zhihu, which has the biggest imagination and is the best at causing trouble, there was even such a question:

"Using Miss Luo Quan as a plastic surgery template, what is the possibility of successful replication?"

The question's popularity is quite high, with over 30 million.

Miss Luo Quan clicked into one of the highlighted answers with curiosity:

"I am a professional plastic surgeon. The circle is too small and there are conflicts of interest, so I'll remain anonymous here.

Back to the question, actually, a long time ago, I had already received quite a few plastic surgery requests from patients saying they wanted to have plastic surgery according to Miss Luo Quan's appearance, and price was not an issue!

As the saying goes, a doctor has the heart of a parent, so we naturally did our best to conduct research and explore the possibility of replicating Miss Luo Quan's world-class beauty.

Especially her jawline, nose, eyes, and ears, which can be called perfect.

Haha, just kidding. Actually, every part is just good-looking.

The first step, we found her photos and videos to let the computer analyze her facial proportions and break them down.

This way we can know how much to cut and how much to leave when making the incision.

The result was that we didn't know until we analyzed it. Once analyzed, all my colleagues and I were stunned.

The proportions of every part of Miss Luo Quan's face have an incomparably precise and unified ratio with each other.

I believe that if I don't say it, everyone should know what this ratio is. That's right, it's the so-called most beautiful golden ratio.

In the past, people always said whose face or figure was the golden ratio. Actually, that was just marketing hype. Whether the ratio is perfect or not isn't decided by words; only data can prove it.

And Miss Luo Quan's face, from the most intuitive data analyzed by the computer, has reached a perfect level.

Therefore, I can clearly tell everyone that her face cannot be replicated through surgery!

This is the masterful work of the Creator and cannot be replicated by human power. Of course, cloning technology is another matter."

Ps. Thanks to book friend Qi Xiang for the book coin reward, thank you!
