President of Custom

Lewis was still as handsome as ever, looking at Song Feng with a smile.

Song Fengshi was a little surprised, but he still smiled at people habitually: "Hey, why is it you?"

Lewis smiled and said, "What a coincidence."

As Lewis said, he looked up at the large poster again, and said, "Is this the new advertisement of Baofanliu?"

"Well, yes." Song Fengshi paused, and then said, "It seems that Shangyuanchun never advertises?"

"Yes," Lewis said jokingly, "save your money."

Song Fengshi also laughed, and said: "What I said... is that you have good things, 'the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys', so don't bother to yell."

"Don't dare, there must be publicity." Lewis smiled gently at Song Fengshi, "For example, today, there is a publicity event. Can you give me a face and a show?"

"What a coincidence?" Song Fengshi paused, and joked again, "You won't ask me to spend money to buy things again? To be honest, I didn't even want to use the chopsticks I bought for 70 Euros last time."

"That's wrong. No matter how good things are, they are used by others. Otherwise, the money would be wasted." Lewis smiled and led Song Fengshi to the center of the shopping mall.

This is a relatively open activity rarely seen by Shang Yuanchun.There are friends from the media at the scene.

They, Shang Yuanchun, never advertise, but that doesn't mean they don't advertise.For example, this event will be featured in major newspapers and media tomorrow.

Song Fengshi followed Lewis, stared at his back, and found that the clothes Lewis was wearing today were very thin, clinging to his body and moving with the wind, which could vaguely outline the lines of the psoas muscles.This fabric not only has a special texture, but also has a strange color, which is an uneven dark brown.Based on Song Fengshi's experience as a shopping guide for many years, such clothes would definitely not look good on a shelf, like a piece of rotten paper, but when worn on Lewis, they were extraordinarily coquettish.

Lewis turned around, stared at his clothes when he saw Song Feng, and explained: "This is a clothes made of bamboo fiber, which belongs to our 'Bamboo Clothes' series."

"Oh, that's really amazing! It's classic, creative, and environmentally friendly." Song Feng nodded unconsciously, but felt that such clothes were not easy to sell, and it was too difficult to look good.

"Actually, this dress is not easy to wear, is it?" Lewis smiled, as if seeing Song Fengshi's true thoughts, "I just wore it to fit the theme of today's event."

Song Fengshi followed Lewis' instructions, looked up, and saw a one-story bamboo shed set up in the center of the shopping mall.

It seems that bamboo products are the theme of this Shangyuanchun event.

When they entered the shed, they saw a small stage, also made of bamboo.In the center of the stage is a craftsman over fifty years old doing handwork.He held a piece of creamy white porcelain with his rough palm, and wrapped the porcelain with thin bamboo strips.

Surrounded by wooden shelves, there are beautiful handmade products, all of which are white porcelain entwined with bamboo silk, and it seems that they are all made by this craftsman.

A bundle of bamboo threads was placed under the wooden frame, Lewis took out a bamboo thread and let Song Fengshi touch it.Song Fengshi stretched out his hand to touch the bamboo thread, and immediately showed surprise on his face: "It's so soft and slippery, it doesn't look like bamboo at all."

"Yes, only one hundred catties of bamboo can produce eight taels of bamboo thread." Lewis said with a smile, "The bamboo thread alone is more expensive than porcelain."

Song Fengshi was a little surprised.

"But in fact, no matter how expensive things are, it's not interesting to look at them. It's better to use them." Lewis said his philosophy of life, and then picked up the exhibits - it was a plain cloth wrapped in bamboo silk. cup.He filled it with hot water and handed it to Song Fengshi.Song Fengshi saw that there was hot water in it, so he took it carefully, but he didn't expect that the cup was not hot at all in his hand.

Lewis said: "Because of these bamboo threads, the porcelain will neither be too hot nor too cold in the hand, which can be regarded as making up for the shortcomings of porcelain."

"This is..." Song Fengshi looked up at the sign hanging on the wall, which said "National Intangible Cultural Heritage - Bamboo Thread Button Porcelain".

Song Fengshi saw that there were no price tags on the products in the venue, but after listening to their introduction, he felt that he couldn't afford it at all, and thought to himself: Isn't it just to pour tea without boiling it?Can I use a mug?

Lewis smiled and said, "Take a sip of tea and see if the bamboo smells fragrant?"

Song Fengshi took a sip from the small bamboo-threaded porcelain cup with doubts: "Well... it's a bit." In fact, I can't taste the fragrance of bamboo at all, but for the sake of the other party's face, let's say there is!

Unexpectedly, Lewis laughed: "The bamboo is wrapped around the outside, how can the tea have the aroma of bamboo?"

Song Fengshi's face became a little hot: "I... this... isn't this what you asked?"

Lewis smiled and patted Song Fengshi on the shoulder, and said, "Yes, thank you for your kindness. I will give you this cup."

Song Fengshi was startled: "This is not good, right? Too expensive a gift..."

"Not expensive, very ordinary." Lewis replied, "These exhibits would not have been sold, and they would have been piled up in the warehouse."

"But..." Song Fengshi still felt ashamed.

Lewis added: "Besides, you've already drank it, and you don't want it, isn't it a bit rude."

"Ah?" Didn't you let me drink it?

In short, Song Fengshi reached an embarrassing situation where although he was "ashamed of receiving it", he was "disrespectful", and finally he had to accept it.

Lewis said again: "You are really sorry, please treat me to afternoon tea."

Song Fengshi took Lewis to the sky garden restaurant in the shopping mall for English afternoon tea.

Looking back, Song Fengshi felt as if he was being led by the nose by Lewis.

But there is no way to do this. Song Fengshi himself has a relatively well-behaved and obedient personality.

On the other hand, Lewis looks very gentle and elegant, and he is probably similar to Jin Lanshu in his bones, with the desire to control others to do what he wants.

But anyone who is the president of a large company must have a desire to control.

Just watch how he behaves.

Lewis and Song Fengshi had afternoon tea and chatted.Then they chatted about the new poster of Baofanliu that was hung up today.Lewis asked again: "What do you think of Baofanliu's new route?"

Song Fengshi was embarrassed to tell Lewis that he was an employee of "Baofanliu", and he was even more embarrassed to tell Lewis that the new advertisement was his own work, so he could only say: "How do I understand? However, I really want to hear your opinion Woolen cloth."

Lewis thought for a while, then said: "I remember when I was about ten years old... or when I was 12 years old, I can't remember exactly. But it was a special day, a very important banquet... Specifically I can’t remember what kind of banquet it was. It’s just that my mother wore a dress when she went to the banquet and received many compliments. The dress belonged to Baofan Liu. Since then, my mother has become a loyal customer of Bao Fanliu. The closet is full of Bao Fanliu's clothes, and I often go to Bao Fanliu's shop for dinner and walks, just buy something if I have nothing to do."

When Song Fengshi heard this story, his first reaction was: Wow, then your mother is very rich.

However, looking carefully at Lewis's attitude towards luxury goods and money, it can be inferred that Lewis is a person who has never been short of money.

This kind of person always has a kind of comfortable beauty, which can be distinguished from other people at a glance.

But, although Song Fengshi's central message was "Lewis' mother is rich", Lewis didn't mean to express that at all.He just continued to describe it very flatly, as if Baofanliu was a supermarket, and it was normal to take a walk after dinner to buy something.

Lewis continued: "At that time, Baofan Liu insisted on the traditional style. I still remember that the skirt was French embroidery."

"Huh? French embroidery?" Song Fengshi, as Bao Fanliu's shopping guide, was also in a daze, "Is that really a work from a long time ago?"

High-end French embroidery costs a lot.He remembered that Bao Fanliu was obsessed with French embroidery for a period of time. The whole skirt was embroidered with gardens, constellations, oceans, etc., not to mention, three-dimensional embroidery, gold, silver and jewels, the skirt was too heavy. It's expensive to die.Later, this kind of dress could no longer be sold. Therefore, except for high-end dresses, all skirts are only embroidered with silk threads, and those expensive and unmarketable embellishments are no longer used.

However, Lewis' mother just likes this kind of "expensive and unmarketable" things.

"Well, Baofan Liu even makes running shoes now. There are very few gemstones, and they have been replaced with sequins. Originally, diamonds were used, but Swarovski crystals were used instead..." Lewis smiled, "My mother is very disappointed .”

Song Fengshi heard the meaning in Lewis' tone, he was using "my mother" to criticize Bao Fanliu's current changes.

However, although such a change disappointed "nobles" like Lewis or his mother, it really gained a larger "civilian" market.

Song Fengshi suddenly felt unhappy, so he said: "But Bao Fanliu was about to die before, but now he's 'resurrected'."

Lewis nodded and said: "Of course. He not only reduces costs, but also promotes 'rejuvenation'. Rejuvenation is actually a compromise to the market, but I think there may be many people who appreciate keeping their own style of Baofan Liu .”

Song Fengshi then said: "But you still need to make money in business, don't you?"

"Of course." Lewis still nodded with a smile, "It depends on whether you think you are in business or art."

Song Fengshi asked: "Then do you think 'Shangyuanchun' is a business or an art?"

Lewis replied: "Speaking of it, don't laugh at me."

Song Feng looked at Lewis suspiciously.

Lewis smiled calmly and said, "That's my dream."

Song Fengshi was stunned.

The word dream is really easy to be ridiculed.

Especially a man of this age.

"A little childish," Lewis seemed a little shy, "isn't it?"

Song Fengshi was surprised to see the occasional shyness of a mature man like Lewis: "No... no, it's very romantic."

"Yes." Lewis regained his confidence, and the shyness of the glimpse faded away, "I am half French, and romance is written in my genes. If you don't believe me, you can continue to understand me. try."

Song Fengshi was unwilling to do this, so he smiled slightly, looked at his watch, and said apologetically, "Speaking of which, I'm going back..."
