Chapter 369 Fashion Show, Face-to-face Meeting in Progress [1 update]
After all, the world's three top luxury brands have a history of hundreds of years and have long been rooted in the fashion industry. They cannot be shaken overnight.
After all, Wantianqing was established too recently and still has the support of customers in China. However, once it moves out of China, it will face an all-round attack from international first-line brands.
[Can you please not help others to become more ambitious and destroy your own prestige? Wantianqing focuses on the intangible cultural heritage of China. For example, the ancient jewelry is a technology that the three major luxury brands do not have. ]
[But it is useless to have technology alone. We need to make the world recognize the value of the Wantianqing brand. Why don’t you go online and ask how many people know about “Wantianqing”? ]
[To be honest, Wan Tianqing should take a few more years to settle down before participating in such an international fashion show, otherwise she will just be a stepping stone for other brands.]
[A key question: Does Wantianqing have any internationally renowned models? As far as I know, several international supermodels in China have long-term contracts and it is impossible for them to walk for other companies. ]
The online argument was in full swing, and netizens who were optimistic about Wantianqing Company were speechless because of these words.
"Sister Lan, public opinion has suddenly become one-sided. I suspect that some other forces have taken action." Fang Qingli contacted Ye Wanlan and said quickly, "When MN Group handed us the invitation letter for the fashion show, it was too generous. I suspect they have other purposes."
The fashion show at the Global Center is a stage for major brands to compete. By inviting Wantianqing Company to participate, isn’t MN Group creating a competitor for itself?
"Yes, I know." Ye Wanlan raised his eyebrows. "MN Group invited us to participate in the fashion show. The purpose is to suppress us and prevent us from entering the international market."
Fang Qingli was stunned: "Sister Lan, you knew this a long time ago?"
"Yes." Ye Wanlan smiled slightly, "However, there is an old saying that goes, it is a risk, but also an opportunity. It depends on how big the risk is this time."
The greater the risk, the greater the opportunities she will encounter.
Growing in adversity can help you soar into the sky and travel thousands of miles!
Hearing this, Fang Qingli knew that Ye Wanlan had already arranged all the plans: "But I am also very confident in our products. This time, one of our ready-to-wear collections combines the theme of 'Kunqu Opera' and uses kesi and Suzhou embroidery techniques."
Ye Wanlan nodded slightly: "Yes, strength is the sharp blade that can cut through all thorns. Some time ago, I found some weaving techniques in ancient books. It just so happens that I will have a good exchange with Jiang Xulin when I go to the Global Center this time."
The Book of Revelation is worthy of being called an encyclopedia of mankind, covering technologies in various fields.
"Okay, Sister Lan." Fang Qingli agreed, "I'll tell Jiang Xulin to make preparations in advance."
After the call ended, Ye Wanlan was about to put down his phone when more than a dozen new messages appeared in the chat group.
[Brother Dagui]: The fashion show is about to start again. It just so happens that I am on vacation during this period, so I can go and join in the fun.
【Cultivated Person】: Why are you joining in the fun? What else do you have to wear besides the work clothes that look like a beggar's?
[Crazy Scientist]: Youqianjie goes to fashion shows every year, right? This is not a fashion show, this is Youqianjie’s personal trading venue.
[Breaking Bad]: Those luxury brands are so bad. They just want to take money out of our rich sister’s pocket every day.
[The Richest Man in the World]: Just a reminder, I’m not a sucker, and I’ve recently become more fond of ancient jewelry from China, so I’ll just take a look at this year’s show.
Ye Wanlan did not speak. She pondered for a moment, and selected the most perfect set from Wan Tianqing's new varieties this season, intending to give it to the richest man in the world.
God wants to destroy her.
So, let this fashion show at the Global Center become the first step for Wan Tianqing to enter the international market.
**
Three days later, the filming of "Collection of China" program in Youlan Village was officially completed, and the archaeological team continued to explore historical relics related to the King of Chu.
As the end of the year approaches, the program team has decided to suspend filming for a while and produce the first six episodes first.
A lot of content has been recorded over the past two months, and the quality is far beyond the director's expectations.
During next year's filming, the program crew will continue to record historical stories about the Shen Ce Army, Taiyi Palace, King Xiaoyao and King Qin.
"Director, I won't go with you." Ye Wanlan smiled, "I'm flying to the Global Center today. The fashion show will be held the day after tomorrow. It's very important to my company."
The director was startled. After a long while, he spoke slowly: "Ye... Miss Ye Ye is actually the chairman of Wan Tian Qing Company?!"
In the past six months, the company with the strongest momentum is Wantianqing. The director is already in the circle, so it is natural that he has heard of it.
Ye Wanlan nodded slightly: "If you need to shoot materials related to Suzhou embroidery and ancient jewelry later, you can go directly to our company's factory."
"That's great!" The director was as happy as a three-year-old child, "Miss Ye, with you here, I don't have to worry about anything." "I'm waiting for the program team to edit it later." Ye Wanlan smiled, "I hope that "Collecting China" can let people all over the world see that these cultures belong to China."
After separating from the director and other guests, Ye Wanlan boarded Yan Tingfeng's private plane.
The number of flights from Shenzhou to the Global Center is fixed, with two flights a day, and only Yunjing International Airport has this route.
Moreover, this route was opened by the Global Center International Airport, and the Global Center has absolute say.
This makes it even more difficult for people from China to travel to the Global Center.
And once you arrive at the Global Center, customs will need to check various documents, and even if you have a pass, it may be rejected.
But Yan Tingfeng solved this problem well. Another private plane went to Jiangcheng and picked up Fang Qingli, Jiang Xulin and others to go to the Global Center together.
The two planes did not have to go through inspection by the Global Center Customs and landed directly on the lawn outside the main city.
"I haven't been to the Global Center for a long time, and it's still so luxurious here." Binghe jumped off the plane and commented, "Sometimes I feel like I've come to an alien planet with a highly developed civilization."
The technology of the Global Center is indeed ahead of the rest of the world. In addition to basic means of transportation, the main city also has a number of public flying tools.
Tiema was also rarely excited.
Ye Wanlan also got off the plane and called Jiang Xulin, who had dark circles under his eyes, "This is for you."
Jiang Xulin, who was originally drowsy, suddenly woke up. He jumped up and grabbed the document in Ye Wanlan's hand: "This is a lost technology. Where did you get it from?"
"Curiosity kills the cat. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask." Ye Wanlan handed over all the information. "It will be very helpful to you. I copied it down and brought it with me."
The "Apocalypse Canon" was compiled six hundred years ago and was written in classical Chinese.
The information that Ye Wanlan gave to Jiang Xulin had already been translated by her, and there was nothing obscure about it.
"It's not just very helpful, it's extremely helpful!" Jiang Xulin took a deep breath, "This information is really a timely help!"
He said without any pride that he was indeed very talented in Suzhou embroidery, but due to the lack of some skills, he had reached a bottleneck.
But the information that Ye Wanlan gave him at this moment solved the bottleneck that had been bothering him for several days.
"Then I'll wait for good news from Jiang the genius." Ye Wanlan said, "It's getting late. Let's go and eat first. You'll be busy for the next three days."
Jiang Xulin's attention had been attracted by the information in his hand. If Fang Qingli had not pulled him in time, he would have crashed into the tree in front of him.
After dinner, Ye Wanlan returned to the hotel, took out the gift she had prepared for the richest man in the world, and took out a new set of clothes.
"Sister Lan, why did you change your clothes?" Fang Qingli was curious. "Are you going to do something big?"
Although Ye Wanlan's clothes are always simple, they are very exquisite, and most of the clothes in her wardrobe are convenient for movement.
But Fang Qingli discovered that Ye Wanlan had a very persistent liking for skirts.
Not only that, the last time she helped to receive a courier, she also discovered that except for the casual sports shoes in Ye Wanlan's shoe cabinet, the heels of the remaining shoes were more than 8cm.
In Fang Qingli's words, even if their Sister Lan was just wearing a sack, she would be beautiful.
But today, Ye Wanlan even wore earrings, a necklace and a jade bracelet.
It was the first time that Fang Qingli saw Ye Wanlan dressed so formally.
Something big must be happening!
Ye Wanlan pulled out another hairpin and tied up a few strands of her long hair. She smiled and said, "I'm going to meet the group of friends I've known online for many years."
When meeting for the first time, of course you have to be formal.
Good morning~~
