Chapter 161: Employment
Peel Caton!
For the generation of Chinese people who were born in the sixties and seventies and grew up after the reform and opening up, Pierre Carton is definitely a well-known and unusual name.
Because this is the first international clothing brand to enter the mainland market after the reform and opening up
It was once synonymous with top high-end fashion in the minds of Chinese people.
You must know that as early as the whole society in the West was skeptical about China's reform and opening up.
It was this Italian-born but French-born Mr. Pierre Caton who was the first to foresee the huge market potential in our country.
With the dream of selling at least one button to each of us, he came to the mainland to open up the market in a maverick way.
At that time, it was still a blue-green-gray republic, and it was sprinkled with colorful splendor.
As a result, our people have learned what individuality and innovation are.
I have experienced what is called noble, generous, and elegant fashion charm.
Therefore, it can be said that Pierre Caton is the enlightener who opened the door to international fashion for our people.
Of course, he also enjoyed huge business dividends as a result.
From the eighties to the nineties, almost twenty years.
Within the territory of the Republic, the word Pierre Caton is closely associated with French romance and luxury.
The clothing brand represented by this word became an incomparable supreme trump card.
Especially the people in Beijing, at that time, it was generally believed that if they could get a set of "Peel Caton" and wear it on their bodies, they would be worthy of themselves in this life.
In addition, for the whole world, the name Pierre Caton represents a unique legend!
It's not just about his entrepreneurial experience of becoming the world's top fashion master from scratch with his bare hands.
And not only because he has won the highest award in French fashion design three times, the Golden Thimble Award.
It's more about making fashion popular.
It was through a fundamental commercial revolution that he forced French haute couture off the noble catwalk.
So frankly speaking, when we entered the new century, although the glory of the Pierre Caton brand was gone.
Both in the world and in the republic, the brand is beginning to fade.
Even most of the consumers of the new generation are ignorant of this brand.
But no matter how unforgiving time is, this brand that once led the international fashion trend.
After all, it is in the past of history, leaving a strong and recolored stroke.
In the history of the development of clothing in the world, it has created irreplaceable achievements.
Like the older successful people that Ning Weimin knows.
Often when it comes to his glory and dreams, Pierre Caton has become an unavoidable term.
It is enough to prove that these people already have an inseparable complex for this brand emotionally.
From Ning Weimin's personal point of view, he really doesn't have any special emotional attachment to this clothing brand.
In his previous life, when he grew up and became an adult, the legend of Pierre Caton had already come to an end.
But for Pierre Caton himself, he must have higher respect and more gratitude.
If nothing else, the key to his own success is to read Pierre Cardin's biography and be inspired.
You know, Pierre Caton is not only a master of fashion design, but also a real business wizard.
This old man is the founder of the contemporary franchise model and is known as the "King of Licensed Business" in the world business community.
His trademark after himself is abbreviated to "PC", but he has never been stingy to share the dividends of this trademark with others.
He is more than willing to let more collaborators jointly profit from promoting his brand.
Even in terms of trademark licensing, it never cares what kind of product it is.
As a result, the influence of the "PC" trademark does not stop at the clothing industry.
The name Pierre Caton has traveled all over the world, staying and staying at every corner.
By the 90s, more than 200,000 people in more than 120 countries and regions were producing more than 800 different patented products licensed by Pierre Caton in more than 600 factories every day.
Japanese people ride PC brand bicycles, German stores sell PC brand curtain rods, Switzerland has PC brand cigarettes, South Korea has PC brand cosmetics, our republic has PC brand children's toys and bedding, PC brand red high heels appear on the streets of Ho Chi Minh City.
There have been arguments that Pierre Caton is self-deprecating by allowing Taipei to produce key chains and cheap travel bags under his name.
But Pierre Caton himself retorted rather proudly.
"So what? Not only did I make a lot of money. And the products with the Caton brand can meet all my needs. I can sleep in a Caton bed, sit in a soft chair, dine in the restaurant I designed, use my lamp, or even go to the theater to see a play, visit an exhibition, and I can leave my kingdom. ”
All in all, it is through this business concept of the master that Ning Weimin understands the importance of sharing and win-win.
I understand that as long as you can profit from others, you should not care that the other party makes more money than yourself, but should strive to increase the number of such partners.
That's why he defines his company as a platform for the big guys to make money together.
With the distribution system of employees taking the lion's share, it has attracted a large number of excellent salesmen.
In the end, he fought his way out of the relatively saturated commercial sea and had his own territory.
Therefore, it can be said that it was Pierre Caton who achieved Ning Weimin's career in his previous life and allowed him to live a life of abundant food and clothing.
In this way, when the trademark on the clothes of "Pierre Caton" was verified.
Make sure that there is no transliteration misunderstanding.
The one in front of him was what he thought was the master of costumes.
So you can imagine what Ning Weimin's heart is like.
In Stephen Chow's words in "The Legend of Deer and Ding", I am afraid it couldn't be more appropriate.
It is really like the admiration of the master is like a surging river, and like the flooding of the Yellow River, it is out of control.
At this time, even out of gratitude and excitement to meet the master himself.
Ning Weimin will also fully meet Pierre Caton's requirements, how can there be any more resentment and dissatisfaction?
What's more, then Pierre Caton expressed his admiration for the ancient civilization of the East to him.
Explain that this is the second time he has come to the Republic.
The purpose is to use oriental silk to design some clothing, hoping to help the Republic earn foreign exchange through exports and improve the quality of silk trade.
From the official point of view, Ning Weimin has no excuse for not cooperating.
After all, he is a citizen of the republic, and he knows that what the country needs most now is foreign exchange.
It's a matter of not catching up, since I caught up with this stubble by chance.
If you don't cooperate as much as you can, you can't say it in your heart.
So his attitude changed greatly, and he enthusiastically reported his name and shook hands with the master.
When Pierre Cotton's request again, "Let's go ...... again," he did so.
I even tried to recall the gait of the male model in the fashion show I once saw.
Relaxed, calm, unsquinting, unhurried......
Ning Weimin's serious dedication this time was really praised by Pierre Caton.
"Great, natural gait, very natural. How about a pair of white pants?"
Ning Weimin nodded in obedience and quickly changed his clothes.
And he picked up a white coat casually, naturally put it on his shoulder, and walked a few laps again.
So this time his performance was not only praised, but Pierre Catton applauded heartily.
"Oh, I have to say, you are the most gifted man I have ever met in your country. Your shoulders are steady, your walking dynamics are aesthetically pleasing, and you're not at all as stiff as others, it's amazing!
Then Pierre Caton put forward his needs with the straightforwardness of Westerners.
"Young man, will you work for me? for three months. If you wish, I can pay you a total of a thousand dollars in 'new money'. Of course, your job isn't just about walking, either. I also have an assistant named Song, and she has too many things to take care of. I need you to help her with some of the costume model performances and training......"
At half past five in the afternoon, when Ning Weimin walked out of the Beijing Hotel again, he had already become a temporary employee of Pierre Carton.
As for his harvest today, in addition to a temporary part-time job, the exchange vouchers that were exchanged as promised, and a shirt and a pair of pants that Pierre Cardin gave him.
It should be said that this old man is really not stingy.
Maybe it's because of the Italians, his "French picker" is fake and shoddy, and he doesn't really pick the door.
Therefore, he is also very willing to seriously perform the urgent task assigned by this boss.
Find as many beautiful young men and women as possible for him, and bring them to the Drum Tower Auditorium tomorrow to choose from.
To be honest, this request is not too difficult for him.
Because he just needs to go to the unit and talk to those colleagues at the Chongwenmen Hotel.
Bao Zhun'er can say a few.
So he didn't plan to go home at the moment, so he wanted to rush directly to the Chongwenmen Hotel.
Unexpectedly, along the way, he was still in the limelight.
Perhaps it was Pierre Carton's clothes that were so eye-catching that many people saluted him and stared at him.
seems to be wondering if he is a real overseas Chinese, a fake overseas Chinese, why is he still crowding the bus?
Especially when you get off the car at the gate of Dongdan Stadium and reverse it again.
When he was on the station on the side of the road.
A fashionably dressed young girl kept staring at him and smiling, as if completely captivated by his majesty and handsomeness.
This made him both a little fluttery and a little cramped, and he couldn't help but pace in place a few laps.
Unexpectedly, the girl smiled more and more charmingly.
As a result, he began to think that the girl had a generosity that was ahead of his time.
Maybe you really like him, and it's very likely that you will take the initiative to talk to him.
An aunt on the side used the cruel truth to destroy his self-confidence and ruin the good feeling he has maintained until now.
"I said, boy, look under your feet, don't you step on the, okay?"
