Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 312 Lafayette comes forward (please vote for me!)

After Lu Zheng left, Little John called Xiang Yang.

Hearing that Jing Tian specifically went to the United States to obtain resources, Xiang Yang felt a little emotional about the current attraction of Hollywood movies to Chinese film actors.

But thinking about it, more than 4000 million US dollars were converted into soft sister coins.

Even in China in the future, it will not be a small film investment.

"Then just recommend it. It's not an important role."

"Huaying should have its own ideas. You can figure it out. You are the CEO of Hermès Film Investment, and I am not."

"Okay, I have to prepare to attend Chanel's event, so I won't talk to you about this anymore."

After hanging up the phone, Xiangyang continued to live his own life.

Generally speaking, what he means is that Little John can handle it by himself. With Jingtian's background so strong, his future development will be fine with or without his help.

It's better to focus more on Liu Qianqian.

It's just that he thinks so, but others don't.

Lu Zheng's face burst into laughter after receiving Little John's assurance.

"Tiantian, that little John from Hermès just told me that he will fully support you in competing for the role in "Kung Fu Dream"."

"He fully supports me?"

Jing Tian's voice sounded a little surprised.

"Yes, not only him, the designer named Xiang Yang also supports you very much."

"Does he also support me?" Jing Tian bit his lip when he heard this.

"Of course he supports you. This is the news that I finally found out." Lu Zheng explained and warned: "You should prepare well, especially when it comes to English lines, and you must be confident."

"I understand, Uncle Lu."

Jing Tian took a deep breath.

In Shanghai, in Huangpu Park on the bank of the Huangpu River, final preparations are being made for the launch of Chanel's 'Paris-Shanghai' high-end handmade workshop series.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to Shuangbing and Brother Xun, the famous Hollywood actress, French actress Vanessa Paradis and Chanel ambassador Anna Moglalis were also invited to attend.

Except that they are about to compete in Huangpu Park in Shanghai.

As an invited guest from Hong Kong Island, Carina Lau will also attend the event that night.

In addition to Chanel brand CEO Maureen Sciquet, who arrived in Shanghai with Karl Lagerfeld was also accompanied by another world-class well-known architect Peter Marino.

On the 85-meter-long T stage, more than [-] top models from around the world, including many models from China, were invited to participate in this fashion show.

Before the event was about to begin, a strong fashion atmosphere arose in Shanghai.

After getting off the plane, Lafayette asked his accompanying assistant to contact Xiang Yang.

He is very confident about this event. He can handle such a small fashion show-level scene with ease.

"Honey, I can't accompany you tonight."

Xiang Yang looked regretful after receiving the call. He would be occupied by this activity for the next two days.

"Go ahead and have fun, hehe."

Liu Qianqian was very understanding of Xiang Yang's helplessness.

She didn't feel any disappointment at not being invited to participate.

On the contrary, I feel glad that I don’t have to go to the scene and wear a high-end custom-made clothing to endure the cold in the cold winter.

"It's better to have a wife, a sweet one."

With a gentle kiss, Xiang Yang took the car keys from Liu Qianqian's hand, hugged him reluctantly, and then went downstairs to the underground parking garage.

The car was the old car Liu Qianqian drove when they first met.

Most importantly, for her, who has been clamoring to buy a new car, her procrastination is much worse than Xiang Yang imagined.

When he arrived at the hotel where Carl Lafayette and others were staying, it took him a long time before he was allowed to enter the underground parking garage.

There is a reason why Shanghai attaches so much importance to it and why a large number of media are waiting outside the hotel.

After all, this is the first time that Lafayette appears in Shanghai.

Xiangyang looked at this matter from the perspective of 2023 and felt that it was normal.

"Xiang, long time no see."

When he arrived at the hotel, as soon as he got out of the elevator and saw the assistant of Galeries Lafayette who came to greet him in the hotel lobby, Chanel CEO Maureen Chiquet gave him a surprise.

When he saw her, Xiangyang was also very enthusiastic. Because he had met her several times because of Lafayette, they could be considered familiar with each other.

"Ms. Maureen, I didn't expect you to be here."

"Let's go, I just came down to confirm something," Maureen Xikai said with a smile after hugging Xiang Yang, "Shanghai is much more prosperous than Beijing."

"It's not bad." Xiang Yang pursed his lips, "But the fashionable atmosphere here is more open."

"Hurry up, Carl and Peter have been waiting for you."

Xiang Yang nodded and said nothing.

He didn't know much about Peter Marino, the architect.

I only know that he is an unusual high-end fashion figure. Basically all the flagship stores and concept stores of luxury brands are designed by him. In addition to his own architectural field, he also has a high influence in the fashion industry.

Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Giorgio Armani, Fendi, Dior, Louis Vuitton and other brands that are familiar to the public have good cooperative relations with him.

Chanel is certainly no exception.

As the elevator went up and before reaching the presidential suite floor, Xiang Yang suddenly said:

"It seems that you attach great importance to the Chinese market."

"Don't you also attach great importance to it?"

Maureen Hikay smiled slightly at this. They were indeed planning to let Peter Marino redesign the Chanel women's clothing concept store in Shanghai. The previous cooperation between the two parties in Ginza, Tokyo was very successful.

Maureen Xikai hopes to use this to announce to China's customer base that Chanel also values ​​the shopping experience of Chinese customers.

"How is the progress of your HYS?" She asked, tilting her head as the two walked.

Xiang Yang smiled and said: "It's still in the site selection stage. As you know, our funds are not as abundant as yours, haha."

"You sound a little frustrated?"

"No, just take your time."

<divclass="contentadv">"There's really no need to worry."

Maureen Hikay finished speaking with a smile and gently knocked on the door of the presidential suite.

As soon as the door opened, Xiang Yang saw a familiar figure and a face with silver hair on his head.

"Peter, this is Xiang, the design director of HYS, who I'm telling you about." Karl's voice was full of ridicule, and there was a disdainful expression on the corner of his mouth. It was intentional at first glance.

"Hello, Xiang." Peter Marino, who was wearing a leather jacket, sat up from the sofa, came to Xiang Yang with a smile and extended his hand.

Xiang Yang ignored Lafayette's deliberate attempts to make things difficult.

He smiled, shook hands with the other person and said, "Hello, Mr. Peter, I have known you for a long time. Nice to meet you."

"Okay, sit down and rest for a while, and come with us to see the scene later."

Lafayette held the cup and took a sip of the black tea in it, then said to Xiang Yang.

"Okay, Carl."

Xiang Yang's tone seemed very calm, "How do you feel about coming to China?"

"It's much better than I thought." Karl glanced at Xiang Yang and then said to Peter Marino: "You don't have to pay too much attention to his title of design director. He doesn't have the money to hire you to design their store."

Faced with the completely different behavior of Lafayette before and after Xiangyang appeared, Peter Marino couldn't help but smile.

Xiang Yang shrugged and gave others a sly smile.

What about this old man?

During the rest of the time below, several people stayed in the room for a while.

Karl, who had not given Xiang Yang a good look for a few minutes, began to soften his tone when he was about to leave for the fashion show, "You are in the same car as me."

"I don't want it." Xiang Yang refused in his heart, but his actions were very obedient.

As soon as he got in the car, Karl cleared his throat and said, "Anna Moglalis will wear the dress you designed tomorrow. Come to the hotel early tomorrow."

"Karl, you are not kidding."

Xiang Yang said in astonishment.

He designed two dresses for Anna Moglalis, which were used in the movie.

This dress appeared in a fashion show and was worn by Chanel's global spokesperson. Is it too showy?

If you think about it in another person's shoes, if it were you, you would never behave so generously.

Lafayette raised his eyebrows and snorted, "What, you think Anna can't do it?"

"That's not true, I am." Xiang Yang shook his head, "I think it's a bit inappropriate for her to wear clothes designed by me to attend such an event."

"Then do you think your Chinese actress is suitable?" Lafayette asked with a smile.

"she?"

Xiang Yang was stunned. He knew who the Chinese actress Lafayette was referring to.

If you look at it this way, it's better to be Anna Moglalis. The clothes were tailor-made for her at the time.

The two are completely different in height, posture and temperament.

It would be very troublesome to change this kind of clothes.

Only after Lafayette reminded him, Xiang Yang also understood why he had this attitude towards him today and deliberately used that piece of clothing to make trouble.

People are like clothes.

For brands, it needs to pay attention to fit.

Hermès attaches great importance to China's future market, and luxury brands such as LVMH, Kering Group, Richemont Group, Chanel, etc. have also begun to shift their attention to this fertile soil more or less.

Chanel has been using it for so many years to examine Brother Xun.

If we start over at this critical moment, marketing will definitely be affected.

So when Brother Xun is bound to get this endorsement, Carl is telling Xiang Yang not to pay too much attention to business operations.

Personal friendship and business behavior still need to be clearly distinguished.

Faced with Lafayette's concern about his own feelings, Xiang Yang, who had no grudge against Brother Xun's endorsement of Chanel, also bluntly gave his answer.

"Actually, Karl, the relationship between me and her is not that bad."

"From a business perspective, I am very optimistic about the cooperation between her and Chanel."

Lafayette Karl nodded when he heard this.

He could also hear what Xiang Yang meant. The words 'business perspective' made it clear that this little guy was just talking about business matters.

that's enough.

When he found that Xiangyang had grown a little more, he felt a little relieved about his vision, "Not bad, there is progress."

Staring at Xiangyang, Lafayette fed the other party a sweet date and said lightly:

"But your design is really disappointing, especially for the sports brand you are in charge of. You have compromised too much for commercial success."

"Compromising in business is inevitable." Xiang Yang didn't care about such comments and said casually:

"Didn't I just say in front of Peter that we are too poor? I have to let HYS survive first, right?"

"Ahem." Lafayette cleared his throat in embarrassment.

The look in Xiang Yang's eyes seemed to say, "Can you learn from me?"

"Hehe." Xiang Yang smiled lightly and turned his head toward the window.

The next day, under the splendid night view of Pudong, Shanghai, the film "Paris-Shanghai Fantasia" directed by Carl Lafayette kicked off the fashion show.

In China, more than 800 fashion celebrities and invited guests who claimed to be fashionistas were present.

Xiang Yang, who wore a turtleneck sweater and wore a Hermès earth-toned men's suit, was the first to appear on the red carpet after appearing at Galeries Lafayette with Anna Moglalis.

In order to cooperate with Anna Moglalis, Xiang Yang walked a little slowly this time.

Facing the flashlights from all around, he tried his best to smile.

He had just taken a few pictures and walked a few steps inside when a sudden sound startled him.

Jiang Mumu, wrapped in a bloated down jacket, excitedly waved to Xiangyang and shouted:

"Boss! Look here! Give me a smile!"

Xiangyang, "."
