"Will Xi Mengyao continue to have a third child?" This is the biggest question of many netizens about Xi Mengyao, a mother who has just given birth to a daughter and has been officially promoted to a second child.
After all, her mother-in-law once joked in front of the camera that "the more the better, at least three children" will be born.
On November 3, Xi Mengyao himself posted a photo to announce to everyone the good news that he had another daughter. As a supermodel married into the tycoon for three years, the "good" thing of the child quickly became the focus of the melon-eating masses.
The mother-in-law was even happier in the latest interview.
Obviously, career achievements and big-name gossip, the latter is obviously more interesting.
For this supermodel who once stood on the international line, the focus of netizens on her now is neither the future career development, nor what new achievements have been made on the show, what new brands have been won, and the most discussed is how many children will be born after marrying into the rich.
As the "predecessor" of the domestic model circle, Xi Mengyao's supermodel aura along the way has been almost consumed by dog blood gossip.
In November 2017, Xi Mengyao "fell in shock" at the Victoria's Secret show, although she fell to the threshold of the giants, but Miss Xi also threw her nearly ten years of modeling career and reputation into the air.
It's an exaggeration to say "the future is ruined," but it's not all wrong.
Since the Victoria's Secret show, Xi Mengyao has appeared in the international show less and less often. In addition to flying to Paris and New York to participate in several shows at Fashion Week from January to March 2018, the shows walked in the next few years add up to a hand.
The focus of the career in the back is obvious to everyone, and Miss Xi has begun to turn to entertainment variety shows!
In February 2018, she played ambiguously with the gambling prince He Youjun in "Love Jet Lag", and since then, the shining spot light on her body has gradually been replaced by the flash of the "Wang Wang Team".
Looking back at the entire 2021, Xi Mengyao, who has already successfully married into the giants, the fashion career is basically in a "stagnant" state. In the past 10 months, her fashion work tasks have basically been "the same as the old three".
One dior, one lv, and one is L'Oréal, which she had collaborated with in 2018.
It is worth mentioning that the intersection of Xi Mengyao and lv only began after Liu Wen gave up cooperation with lv in 17 years and chose to become a chanel watch brand ambassador and beauty brand ambassador with higher gold content.
Although Xi Mengyao participated in some lv activities at that time, the number of cooperation between the two parties has really increased in the past two years.
Perhaps the brand also saw the development of Xi Mengyao's fashion career, on April 10, after Xi Mengyao left the supermodel group photo in advance on the pretext of being unwell, dior silently changed the "international supermodel Xi Mengyao" in the social platform to "supermodel Xi Mengyao".
Although only two words are missing, this is not a dimensionality reduction blow for Xi Mengyao, who is a professional model.
In everyone's eyes, Xi Mengyao's label has long changed from "international supermodel" to "rich daughter-in-law". Some fans regret that she gave up such a good fashion future and her professionalism is too weak. But more people think that Xi Mengyao's "merit-based" change is quite normal, after all, the model has a "short flowering period".
And in the national model, she is not the only one who marries into a rich family or transforms in the middle.
Looking back at the chinese supermodels of past generations, most of them left the catwalk silently after "blooming", whisking the hem of their clothes. Take Ye Jihong, the first generation of Chinese models, as an example.
In 1989, the first New Silk Road China Model Contest was held in China, and Ye Jihong, who was in a fancy age, won the championship in one fell swoop and became the first Chinese model among the beauties, with a cool temperament and appearance.
Just look at the faces of the three models in the champions and asia seasons, even now can surprise several circles. If they want, the fashion circle and entertainment circle can probably be crossed at will!
He has won an excellent ranking and has become a "milestone" figure in China. When everyone thought that Ye Jihong's work would become busier and busier, and she could run to the world with Chinese fashion, this sister did not hesitate to withdraw from the circle and disappear.
The first year to win the championship, the second year to quit the fashion circle, no one is more courageous than this sister!
You know, at that time, Ye Jihong had already gone abroad to the United States, Japan, Germany, Australia and other countries, and was the first real supermodel in the national model.
Not only that, when Pierre Cardin had not yet become a brand in the hard-hit area of cottage goods, Ye Jihong had become the Chinese model that Mr. Pierre Cardan admired the most, and there was no one.
Obviously, the future is promising, but Ye Jihong has also seen the dark side behind this glitzy circle and refused many unreasonable invitations from abroad, which is also one of the important reasons for her to leave the modeling industry.
She once said that she represented the face of the country and could not make a mistake.
However, the more important reason is that the domestic fashion industry is too restrictive. Although the first model contest was a "stepping stone" to open up China's fashion consciousness, the pressure it received was not something that ordinary people could bear. At that time, many contestants participated in the competition and even carried their families behind their backs, and the male audience did not even dare to look up at the models on the stage.
Burdened with such environmental pressure, there are few models who can persevere.
In the fourth year after choosing to withdraw from the circle, that is, in 1994, everyone learned that Ye Jihong was affected by her modeling career, began to engage in the commercial art industry, married a rich businessman and conceived a pair of children, and then there was no news.
If Ye Jihong abandoned the circle to do business because he had to bear too much pressure, then Lu Yan, the first national model who surprised the world, had his own considerations.
Unlike the extremely beautiful Ye Jihong, Lü Yan's appearance bears too many "scolding voices". Until now, Lu Yan has been scolded by some prejudiced people for "lowering the level of Chinese's appearance" and "strengthening foreigners' stereotypes of China".
Obviously, the appearance value has not become an obstacle for Lu Yan to stand at the top of the national model pyramid, but it has made her the "most unique" existence in the national model circle.
In 2000, 19-year-old Lu Yan represented China in the Global Top Model Competition, beating players from 45 countries and finally winning the runner-up position. It also made the world start to face up to Chinese and even Asian models for the first time.
Such an achievement who can say no to her. Top fashion brands from all over the world have thrown olive branches at her, and Lu Yan's peak is the "peak" of the real meaning of the national model.
But this excitement lasted only a decade. At the age of 29, Lu Yan fell in love with a French rich man. Like Ye Jihong, marriage and career only want to take care of one, so Lu Yan chose love.
In 2012, although Lu Yan did not announce her departure from the fashion industry after giving birth to her baby, she faded out of the camera and the show little by little. In 2013, he set up a clothing studio and officially transformed from a model to a fashion designer.
It is not only these two who are married, but also Zhang Lina, Jiang Peilin and others, who later also retired behind the scenes because of marriage and children.
It is estimated that some people want to ask, is there no "young and early marriage" in the national model?
Yes, after Lü Yan, the cuckoo that is most optimistic because of its cool temperament has also been evaluated by many people as "national model white moonlight".
After a few years of great popularity, due to the continuous emergence of a new generation of models, Cuckoo also gradually began to participate in film and television dramas across borders, and gradually developed in the direction of entertainment artists.
As a generation of models drifts apart, there are always new successors. And Liu Wen, He Sui, Xi Mengyao and others are this successor.
Unsurprisingly, Xi Mengyao seems to be on her way out of the catwalk for marriage.
Compared with the career path of national models, overseas models are more "persistent".
Among European and American models, there are not many models who marry at the right age. But the supermodels who stand at the top are all running models as a lifelong career.
For example, Carmen Dale Oriface, known as the "national treasure supermodel" in the United States, is now 90 years old and is still a model in service. Although she has survived countless boyfriends and has a rich history of love, it has not affected her in the modeling industry at all.
Senior models also include Meyer Musk, the mother of Tesla's president. Although she once left her big stage because of her family and children, after she got rid of the abusive man and raised her child as an adult, she boldly chose to make a comeback at the age of 60, and now she is still focusing on her career in the fashion industry in her 70s.
Examples abound, and Naomi Campbell, once known as the "pinnacle supermodel," is one of them.
Working as a model talent mentor to guide newcomers, personally taking the catwalk and shooting fashion magazine blockbusters, Naomi still did a good job, even though she was 51 years old.
Each of them has gone through a marriage or even several marriages and relationships, but most of them have not chosen to leave their careers. This is in stark contrast to the state of the national model.
It cannot be said that the national models do not have a "sense of enterprise", and their departure in the middle is actually closely related to the ecological environment of the fashion circle.
The fashion circle has been dominated by the aesthetic consciousness of France, Italy, the United States, the United Kingdom and other countries, and the opportunities and remuneration given to overseas models will be higher.
For China, which only began to awaken its fashion consciousness at the end of the last century, the opportunities for both the fashion market and models will be manywhat limited.
In addition to the pressure from the market, the national models also have to face the pressure of some traditional concepts in China. For example, the idea that the right age must marry and have children is still pressed on the heads of young people.
The pressure of marriage and children makes modeling practitioners face a dilemma, and the impact of having children on their careers is even more devastating. Market choice and conceptual pressure are the hidden thrust of the national models' "young and early marriage" and the transition to retirement.
If you can insist on seeing here, maybe you can also try to understand Xi Mengyao's choice.
Of course, with the opening of concepts and the development of the future fashion market, these problems faced by national models may also disappear!
