Personal biography
Zhang Zilin: the lucky child of the beautiful turn
Zhang Zilin suddenly became a modeling circle often heard the name, this is nothing new. It's not unusual for familiar "new" names to pop up from time to time as new people come and go in this circle. Therefore, Zhang Zilin's rapid rise to stardom and becoming one of China's top ten models in 2006 is nothing special, even if it can be called "star news" in the circle. However, when listening to acquaintances introduce Zhang Zilin, media reporters are almost always trying to capture the "special" elements of her body. The modeling circle is a lot of models who are college students, but the professional models who come out from the famous universities of science and technology really make Zhang Zilin appear to have a bit of special flavor.
The University of Science and Technology Beijing out of a professional model, Zhang Zilin in the school period has been a big shock. According to reports, many college students are proud of her, but where she is going to participate in the show, students are posting on the Internet with each other, accompanied by the scene. Magazines published her picture, we will also buy in time to circulate each other. Sometimes she heard her classmates say to outsiders, "Zhang Zilin is from our school." The heart will rise from a warm touch and the strong sense of pride in this brand-name alma mater.
Zhang Zilin 182cm head, not to do modeling seems a bit of a waste. Despite the fact that from a young age along a standardized learning and growth path down, do more than ten years of good students, so much so that her family are heavenly imagined her life path: key high school to a key university, and then a graduate school, and then find a stable, superior conditions of a good job ...... but all of that still can not cut off her and modeling destiny!
These are the first time I've ever seen a model.
Sure enough, from the time Zhang Zilin stepped into the modeling circle, she began to be noticed by industry insiders.......
There is a big company to be down to earth
Zhang Zilin called herself quite fortunate to be able to enter the New Silk Road smoothly, and all the performances or filming matters are arranged by the company, which makes her have a happy sense of solidity. New Silk Road does attach great importance to Zhang Zilin. In fact, as early as when Zhang Zilin just entered the university, in the intentionally or unintentionally contacted the new Silk Road, but at that time the heavy school in the body, Zhang Zilin listen to the family's advice, or focus on the four years of university life, down to earth to complete the study, just graduated also got a scholarship.
But ever since she got in touch with the modeling industry, she has always seemed to have a tug of war in her heart, and she feels more and more like she has fallen in love with the industry from the bottom of her heart. No matter which way she wants to go in the future, she should have taken the fashion road of her choice when she was young. According to New Silk Road's modeling agent's recollection, when she first met the young Zhang Zilin, she still had a bit of cute "baby fat". In just a year or two, when they saw her again, she had completely developed into a standard model figure, which made these agents very happy. So, the training of Zhang Zilin was included in the plan. In July of this year, under the arrangement of the company, Zhang Zilin was able to go to Paris, France to participate in the Armani haute couture conference. According to her own words, is the company to help her overcome many difficulties, she finally became a trip.
Immediately thereafter, Zhang Zilin went with the company to Germany to perform, and then, the intense life of China International Fashion Week began, just a little more than a year after her debut, she has become the designers have been hit by the busy rush to catch the scene of the modeling team in a member. In the blackout week, she also really enjoyed the sense of fulfillment of being valued and welcomed.
The honor of being one of China's Top 10 Models was like a dessert, a nutritious tonic for Zhang Zilin after a busy week. The beautiful turn from college student to modeling darling has already given her a glimpse of the light ahead. "I think I am so lucky. I've heard about New Silk Road since I was a kid, and it's fate that I actually grew up here. Modeling behind a good company feels especially solid, they arranged for me to work very well planned."
Zhang Zilin is indeed a lucky child, just joined the industry can get a lot of people's help, so that she in the modeling growth of the road less thorns.
Modeling and focusing on branding
During her college years, her family had already envisioned a promising life path for Zhang Zilin, with graduate school and a career in the civil service as the ideal future that many college students pursue single-mindedly. And when Zhang Zilin in this seemingly straight road slightly turned a corner, the world will become another scene.
The fashion world is a world where you can often see flowers and hear applause, a world full of temptation, where the beauty of the world makes it hard for her to leave, and where she is able to achieve the fame that she has today, the turn was just right. If we summarize her strengths from the back of her rapid rise to fame, although sweet looks are in line with Oriental aesthetics, there are many sweet faces. But Zhang Zilin exudes the kind of intellectual temperament, but she is the most distinctive place. This kind of knowledge is not in the degree of education, but the real cultural accumulation.
This year's New Silk Road China Modeling Contest, Zhang Zilin became one of the judges, which is also the company to give her a great opportunity to see that she is really valued by the company seedling. "There's a common phenomenon when you see a lot of newcomers who are eager to try out, and that's that the age of this circle is generally on the young side. Many of the models who sign up are only 13 or 14 years old. I think there's no problem with them wanting to be models, and they can come and get a feel for it. But don't give up your studies because of it. You have to know that modeling is not just about a pretty face, there are also cultural things in it." In this regard, Zhang Zilin is a veteran. If you gave up your studies and went into modeling, you may not have better results than today. Because that distinctive intellectual temperament is indeed the expression of inner quality, calm mind and steady self-confidence are directly related to the accumulation of knowledge.
In fact, this is a topic that has been around for a long time in the modeling world. Fashion is an expression of fashion and culture, so the models who interpret fashion also contain cultural connotations. Although this is not a yardstick, it is a panacea to make this bowl of "youthful rice" become long-lasting. The good thing is, as people's attitudes towards fashion continue to change, so do modeling trends. The age of the model should change with the change of fashion consciousness, and no longer appear so important, so abrupt.
Nowadays, more and more designers are focusing on models who match the connotations of the clothes from form to spirit, which makes the age very broad and invariably lengthens a model's career. Originally, designers would subconsciously look at the age of the model when interviewing, but now almost no one pays attention to this issue, talent, ability and market attention beyond the age, and gradually become a prerequisite for measuring the excellence of professional models.
Zhang Zilin's fame is a signal, or will bring some kind of revelation, modeling and study is not only not mutually exclusive, if properly arranged, but can be mutually reinforcing.
Preparing for the future
Unlike many models, Zhang Zilin has been modeling for nearly two years, and her understanding of clothing is somewhat unique. In her own words, she pays more attention to brands, including brand value, influence and future development.
For her college thesis, she wrote an analytical essay on the international marketing of local clothing brands, which won her teachers' unanimous praise. All these can be the best evidence that models do not delay each other in career and study, but also provide each other with sustenance and resources. Zhang Zilin is not very old, but compared to models who started out in their teens, she started later, but really became famous quite fast. And, no matter facing today's achievements, or tomorrow's direction, she can face it with ease. "The waves of the Yangtze River push forward the waves of the past, and there will always be a batch of newcomers coming in. A lot of younger models are confused about the future, but I'm not afraid, I know what my future will be, and what I will do if I don't do modeling, I'm very solid in my heart."
Maybe in the future, she'll go back to school, go to graduate school, have an ideal senior white-collar career, and it will look like she's walking back down the path that was once set by nature. But in reality, by that time, this road will be completely different from what she imagined, because after this beautiful turn, there will be a lot of rewards that she can enjoy for the rest of her life. For the future, Zhang Zilin can have plenty of time to draw a beautiful blueprint. Because in a short period of time, these plans are not yet on the agenda for implementation. The joy and fulfillment that modeling has given her is enough to allow her to focus on striving for a while and doing the best she thinks she can. "Modeling is not something you can do for the rest of your life, but I don't use my age as a boundary to leave or not. My boundary is to reach the limit of my potential as a model, not so much to outshine everyone, and I can't outshine everyone, but to do it when I'm very, very happy with myself."
Growing up with flowers and applause, and then logically stepping into a world surrounded by them, if someone says that Zhang Zilin was born lucky, she's 100 percent in agreement. However, for anyone, there is no pie that falls from the sky for nothing. Luck is also a companion that comes with hard work and wisdom in parallel.
It would be a blessing for the modeling industry if there were more lucky people like this who are able to make the most of their careers and education. If, after ten years, people see Zhang Zilin on the runway, she will still be the favorite of the fashion world, and the so-called "youthful rice" argument that Chinese models can't survive past the age of 30 will have to be completely rewritten.
The 182cm Zhang Zilin has been modeling since college, and was one of China's top ten models in 2006. It is said that Miss China Zhang Zilin's height or thanks to the parents of the "good gene" inheritance (mom height 170CM, dad 180CM). Zilin frankly, the best boyfriend is the first standard of kindness, followed by career, and then have a sense of family responsibility. In order to maintain a slim figure, no matter how busy work, Zilin still insist on two to three times a week to the gym. In terms of diet, Zi Lin, however, said she belongs to the kind of people who are not purposely controlling their diet. "It's not good to be skinny, it's best to be healthy," she said. Zi Lin claims that actually the most important thing in keeping fit is what and when to eat. As long as it is the next day need to take pictures or video, then the day before after six o'clock can not eat and drink water."
