After a disaster, the momentum of economic recovery is often menacing, and people with business sense will never miss such opportunities.

It was because of Chen Youran's own selfishness that he was able to spare these few days to go out and play.The delayed time will naturally be doubled to make up for it, so after returning from the trip, Chen Youran immediately threw himself into the busy work, and would not go home until it was dark every day.

Lan Shan is also busy.

On the one hand, although Guiyuan Tianju has recruited two designers and is already competent for part of the daily work, she is still in charge of the core design and cannot be slacked off.

On the other hand, Lan Shan will also start preparing for the match that Nie Yuxin mentioned earlier.

With a year to go between now and the start of the tournament, it seems like a long time and there doesn't seem to be a rush.But fashion design is different from other industries. It is a very complicated and cumbersome process from selecting materials to drawing drawings according to inspiration, and then making finished products.What's more, it turned out to be something that was used for the competition. It must be refined and revised repeatedly, and every detail must be perfect.

Starting to prepare from now on is already considered hasty.

In particular, Lan Shan's best designs often incorporate elements of Miao costumes, so the requirements for fabrics and accessories are also different from ordinary clothing.

So this holiday, she has been looking for these materials.

The Miao people have always had the habit of planting ramie, weaving, printing and dyeing, and then embroidering various patterns on the cloth, and finally making clothes and skirts.It is for this reason that Miao girls are often ingenious, smart, and especially talented in colors and styles of clothes.

It was in such an environment that Lan Shan grew up and was influenced by what she saw and heard, so she cultivated such a talent and developed an infinite love for the work of fashion design.

But times have changed after all.

Now that everything can be bought on the street, it will naturally impact the traditional textile printing and dyeing industry, making this self-sufficient lifestyle gradually disappear.

After all, not everyone is proficient in such skills even for Miao girls, and this method of making clothes is very cumbersome and takes a lot of time. Most people will choose more convenient clothes.

When Lan Shan was still living in the village, many villagers had already started to change from the Miao costumes with complicated patterns but relatively simple styles, and put on Western-style clothes with rich patterns, styles and colors in the city, which were also very convenient for work.

After entering the new century, such changes are bound to increase.

Especially after China's accession to the World Trade Organization, it has fully opened up to the outside world, and a large amount of capital and foreign products have been introduced into the country, which has a greater impact on the market.

According to the results of Lan Shan's investigation during this period, the situation is not optimistic, and it can even be said that it has reached a very critical level.

Of course, she is not the only one who sees the existence of this crisis, and many seniors are already trying to save themselves.

For example, the biggest change in the market now is that the original rural family-style small workshops have almost completely disappeared, replaced by small processing factories specializing in the production of Miao costumes.

They use half-machine and half-manual methods to greatly increase the production speed of Miao costumes, and then sell these costumes to ordinary Miao people.

In this way, ordinary Miao compatriots will be completely liberated from this kind of work, and more professional people will be responsible for making clothing, which not only conforms to the law of commercial development, but also can maintain the vitality of Miao clothing, allowing it to exist in a new way and continue to grow. continue.

But there are bound to be various problems that follow.

For example, one of the biggest problems is that innovation has become more difficult.

In the past, the Miao people made their own clothes, and often fine-tuned the styles and patterns according to their own preferences, making the Miao costumes flourish.But now, because it is semi-machine-style batch processing, while improving efficiency, it also reduces the possibility of differences.

Every piece of clothing is the same, there is no surprise.Moreover, the patterns produced by the machine are always dull and unsatisfactory.

It's hard to say who is better and who is worse, it depends on everyone's different choices.

In fact, from Lan Shan's standpoint, there is really no way to comment on this change.

After all, what she did, strictly speaking, is not to inherit the traditional Miao costumes, but to make substantial modifications to them, and it can even be said that she only extracts some key elements of Miao costumes and adds them to Western-style clothing On top of that, collocate and collide with different results.

The product produced in this way is actually another thing.

From the perspective of the entire historical process, no matter which ethnic group's costumes, they have always been changing and developing, and it is impossible to remain unchanged.Thinking about it this way, whether it is the factory-style production method brought about by market changes, or the improvement of Miao costumes made by Lan Shan, they should actually be good things.

Because only with continuous change and development, this kind of national costume is alive, and can continuously adapt to the ever-changing country and society, and radiate new vitality, so as not to be left behind by history and die slowly.

Therefore, improving Miao costumes, adding other elements, making it more suitable for the public's aesthetics, and promoting it is all Lan Shan can do.

At present, although the situation is tense, it is a good thing for Lan Shan because of the emergence of various small factories.

Because she wants to cooperate, if she cooperates with a dozen or even dozens of retail investors, it will be too troublesome.Switching to a factory, whether it is to cooperate with one of them or to purchase a factory for reorganization, is a time-saving and labor-saving choice.

But these are all things after the establishment of the "Dongli" brand. Now Lan Shan only needs some materials to complete her works, as long as she directly purchases from the factory.

The reason why she did such detailed research and understanding is to prepare for the establishment of a new brand in the future.

And the effort is worthwhile.After a summer vacation, Lan Shan already had a preliminary understanding of all the factories in the province, especially in the vicinity of Yushi, and also selected a few possible partners for further investigation.

As for the fabric she wants, it is currently in the process of being produced in full swing, and it can just be used as the subject of the first assessment.

——Although the fabric she needs also has Miao elements, it is different from all the existing fabrics on the market. It is necessary to carry out a new design and production process from scratch, and whether she can undertake such a job is to be investigated top priority.

If the factory can produce the fabric she wants, there will naturally be a basis for cooperation.

Therefore, after selecting a few factories that can cooperate and handing over the order to them, Lan Shan has to go to the factory from time to time to check the progress, select various raw materials and dyes with the master craftsmen, and make sure to get what she wants Effect.

Both of them are busy. Although Lan Shan always circles around Yushi and goes home every night, she doesn't actually spend much time together. For Chen Youran and Lan Shan who are in love, this is undoubtedly a good time. torture.

But because of this, the time spent together becomes more and more precious, making people race against time and reluctant to waste a moment.

In this case, the relationship between the two became stronger.

In addition, there is an unexpected joy, that is, Lan Shan finally learned the skill of driving while going out frequently.After all, for such frequent commutes, the cost of taking a taxi is too high, and it is not so convenient to take a car or train, so it is better to drive by yourself.

Chen Youran's hands-on teaching and practical needs, Lan Shan learned quickly.

As for the driver's license, like Chen Youran, after taking the test, he entrusted someone to take the express lane to get it.At this time, domestic management in this area is not so strict, especially in small cities, there is a lot of room for maneuver.

In the blink of an eye, a holiday passed, and it was time for Lan Shan to go back to school.

In order to appease Chen Youran's emotions, she made special arrangements and set aside a few days to stay at home with her.It just so happened that Chen Yanran's busy work came to an end, and she could fly back, so the family reunited for a short time, and spent a few days of relaxed and carefree days.

Chen Yanran's one-year college career has obviously given her a good training, and her quality in all aspects has improved. She is no longer as careless as before, and she doesn't take many things to heart.

So even though she's only been back for a few days, she has a keen mind and still notices that the relationship between Lan Shan and Chen Youran is closer than before.

Although Shanghai is a big city, the LGBT community is still a minority after all. Most of the time, ordinary people don't notice their existence. Even if someone around you is, as long as the other party doesn't show it, they won't be discovered.

So although Chen Yanran learned a lot this year, she really didn't pay attention to this aspect, and she never thought that Chen Youran and Lan Shan had become a couple.

Although it felt like the two were getting more and more sticky, Chen Yanran didn't take it too seriously.After all, Chen Youran and Lan Shan have always been good, better than everyone else, and it doesn't seem surprising that they are getting better now.

It's just that it's not like most people's friendship fades away with age, and Chen Yanran agrees and is very pleased with this point.

As a result, this slight doubt lightly stroked in her heart, leaving a faint trace, which quickly disappeared.

……

Long-distance love will inevitably face many problems, but in Lan Shan's view, as long as the relationship is stable enough and each other has enough sense of security, then no matter what the problem is, it can be solved and will not really affect the relationship.

So when managing this relationship with Chen Youran, she put a lot of thought into it.

Although the two are separated from each other, they communicate frequently every day.The greetings in the morning and evening are never interrupted. As long as you have time, you can send text messages or make video calls. Every night, there is an unshakable video for about half an hour to ensure smooth communication between each other.

In addition, the current postal business is fairly developed, and it would be a good choice to send each other a small gift as a surprise from time to time, which can embellish the ordinary every day more interesting and avoid becoming a pool of stagnant water.

Also, expression in a relationship is important.

Miao women are cheerful and express their emotions straightforwardly, especially when it comes to love.Now that the relationship with each other has been confirmed, Lan Shan naturally put aside all worries. During the conversation with Chen Youran, she never concealed her emotions, praised each other from time to time, and expressed her affection.

Compared with her, Chen Youran seemed much more reserved.

But she also has her own way of expression. If she can't say it directly, she will write love letters and poems to Lan Shan, which is also very interesting and can enhance the relationship between each other.

With these points in mind, the relationship between the two parties will not fade, but will gradually brew with the passage of time and the distance.

If, in addition, they flew over to visit each other unexpectedly in their free time and spent a good night together, then the last hidden danger could be solved.

Under each other's careful management, although the two places are separated, the relationship between the two has not faded, but has grown stronger and stronger with each passing day, just like a jar of fine wine that has been brewing for a long time, becoming more and more fragrant and stronger. More alcohol.

Ordinary days are like water, sometimes you don't notice its passing, and when you come back suddenly, you realize that a long time has passed.

Suddenly, it was another year.
