On the afternoon of the second day after the match against Crystal Palace, Chen Ping followed Yu Wei to her friend's fashion show. It was the first time Chen Ping had watched such a thing as a fashion show on the spot, and he had only seen it on TV before. And at that time, watching a fashion show was not for the sake of looking at the clothes, it was completely for the sake of seeing the models. I watched it live for the first time today, and it was completely different from watching it on TV. However, looking at these models wearing strange clothes, Chen Ping could only scratch his head.

What is this?

Can these things really be sold?

Chen Ping looked at the clothes worn by these models, and the first thing that came to mind was what the hell this was. What those models were wearing was clothes? Chen Ping didn't know what to say. Anyway, Chen Ping knows one thing, if you go out in these clothes, you can be sure that the return rate must be 100%. Because it's just so weird.

Anyway, except for some special festivals, Chen Ping has never seen such strange clothes on the street.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Chen Ping scratching his head, Yu Wei asked with a smile.

Chen Ping smiled helplessly, and whispered in Yu Wei's ear: "I don't understand it." These clothes are so weird, can they be sold? Can they really be worn?"

Chen Ping immediately expressed his doubts.

"Sneer—"

Hearing Chen Ping's question, Yu Wei covered her mouth and smiled.

After laughing, Yu Wei's face immediately approached Chen Ping, and the faces of the two people were basically completely attached to each other. Chen Ping was able to smell the faint body fragrance from Yu Wei, and the perfume on Yu Wei's body did not cover her body fragrance, so Chen Ping couldn't help but sniff it gently. The faint body fragrance instantly made Chen Ping a little uneasy.

Chen Ping is a normal man, a man with physical needs. Being so close to such a beautiful woman, it would be strange if there was no reaction. After Yu Wei got close to Chen Ping, she also found that the two of them were too close, and her cheeks instantly reddened.

However, this time is not good, so he continued: "In fact, these public fashion shows, the clothes are not for sale, but only to express some of the designer's design concepts and the designer's creativity. Let the fashion circle see the designer's unique fashion charm. ”

"Unique fashion charm?"

Chen Ping didn't quite understand what Yu Wei was talking about. Therefore, he smiled bitterly: "It seems that I really have no artistic cells, and I can't see what this designer wants to express at all." ”

"The clothes of these designers all carry the designer's ideas and have the designer's unique concept. In this fashion show, the designer showed everyone that retro and modern youth, as well as a style that combines the four seasons. Therefore, many of the colors on these clothes are the brightest colors of the four seasons. ”

Yu Wei introduced Chen Ping.

Chen Ping listened to Yu Wei's introduction and took a closer look at the fashion show. But no matter how you look at it, Chen Ping didn't see that the clothes on these models had any combination of retro and youth. As for what is the most vivid color of the four seasons, Chen Ping can't understand it. Spring, summer, autumn and winter cover almost all colors, which are the representative colors, Chen Ping, who is addicted to football, really doesn't know much.

Sure enough, art is something that ordinary people don't understand.

Chen Ping even remembered some comments on the Internet in later generations. What ordinary people can understand is a commercial film, what ordinary people seem to understand is an art film, and what ordinary people can't understand at all is the best art film. Only by blinding ordinary people and understanding them can they get the highest artistic evaluation.

"And what about the clothes we see in the market?"

"That's not this kind of public fashion show. Public fashion shows are more about promoting designers and promoting some brands. Let everyone know this designer and understand this designer's design style. What really wants to be launched on the market is a closed fashion show, which is mainly attended by brand orderers. That kind of fashion will be a trade secret, and it is impossible for unrelated people to participate in it. ”

"I see. ”

No wonder.

Chen Ping looked at the models on the stage, and he didn't feel that the clothes they were wearing could be sold. It turns out that there are so many more claims. If it weren't for the fact that Yu Wei was by his side, Chen Ping really wanted to leave directly.

It's just boring.

Fortunately, there is Yu Wei next to him, and he will introduce the characteristics of these clothes to Chen Ping. Some of the costumes are borrowed from the anti-realism of the sixties, some are borrowed from the old English clothing style, and autumn colors are added. Let the content of anti-realism be combined with the gloom of autumn. Although he didn't understand it very well, Chen Ping could only say that it seemed to be very powerful.

However, Chen Ping listened to Yu Wei's introduction and was quite surprised.

Chen Ping doesn't understand art.

I didn't know how to evaluate art, and I didn't know what those who studied art learned. But listening to Yu Wei's introduction, these people who are engaged in art really have a deep study of history. The cultural, economic, and social phenomena of a certain period of history are all uniquely studied. It was an eye-opener for Chen Ping.

A piece of clothing is capable of telling a lot of allusions and many sources. Baidu

Chatting with Yu Wei, Chen Ping really knew a lot of fashion knowledge. A normal public fashion show isn't very long, about 15 minutes or so. After a fashion show, there will be fashion shows by other designers at regular intervals.

But Yu Wei just came to attend his friend's fashion show.

Chen Ping saw the designer of this fashion show, who looked about the same age as Chen Ping, about thirty years old. He has blonde hair, I don't know if it's personality or what, and he wears big glasses. She greeted many people, and finally came straight to Yu Wei's side, hugged Yu Wei gently, and said, "Yu, thank you for coming." ”

"Ilibena, perfect fashion show. ”

"Thank you. ”

Ilibena let go of Yu Wei, then looked at Chen Ping, and suddenly said, "Coach West Ham." ”

"Hello, I'm Chen Ping. ”

"Hello. ”

Ilibena and Chen Ping shook hands gently, then looked at Yu Wei, then at Chen Ping, and said with an ambiguous expression: "Yu, this is the male companion you brought." Tsk tsk, you've taken down the youngest manager in the Premier League, and if I were a few years younger, I'd have taken it. ”

"Illibana, no. ”

Yu Wei squirmed rarely.

Ilibena blinked and said with a smile, "You wait for me, I'll take care of the follow-up." I'll invite you and Coach Chen to dinner later. Coach Chen, I'm a fan, I'm so happy to meet you. ”

…………

"Oops......"

"What's wrong?"

"I drank a little too much yesterday. ”

Chen Ping pressed his head.

Chen Ping really didn't expect Yu Wei's friend, the designer Ilibena, to be so able to drink. No wonder everyone says that England fans are drunks, and England players were all drunkards ten years ago. Chen Ping thought that drinking some wine could lead to more beautiful things, but what Chen Ping imagined did not happen.

Although the relationship with Yu Wei has improved a lot, it has not developed to the point of sleeping in a bed. On the contrary, when I woke up today, I found that I drank a little too much yesterday, and my head hurt very much. Chen Ping usually doesn't drink, but if he drank a little more yesterday, he wasn't very comfortable.

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about the next game. ”

Chen Ping, Julian Dix, and Liu Yu held a meeting.

Julian Dix is Chen Ping's assistant coach, responsible for implementing Chen Ping's tactics and taking full responsibility for the team's usual training. After Liu Yu joined Chen Ping's coaching staff, he was mainly responsible for the basic training of players.

Chen Ping's coaching staff, the coaching staff of the first team alone currently has 8 people. Originally, there were 7 people, but Liu Yu joined this season, so it became 8 people. But the main development of the team was decided by Chen Ping and Julian Dix.

Liu Yu was lifted by Chen Ping, so he also attended the meeting.

"Chen, the next games are more intensive, in addition to the Premier League, we also have to play the League Cup, the League Cup, the League Cup. On 27 October, we play the third round of the Carabao Cup away from home against Colchester United. The number 30 is the 11th round of the Premier League, and our opponent is Fulham. On November 5th, we play Lazio at home in the UEFA Cup. November 7 is the twelfth round of the league and we are going to play Southampton away. If we pass the third round of the League Cup, then on November 11th, we will play the fourth round of the League Cup. On November 14, in the thirteenth round of the league, we played Middlesbrough at home. On November 20th, the fourteenth round of the league, we are going to Highbury Stadium to play Arsenal. On November 26th, it's the UEFA Cup and we're going to play Villarreal away. On November 28, in the fifteenth round of the league, we will face Manchester United at home. That means we have to play at least eight games in the next month, and if we qualify in the Carabao Cup, then we have to play nine games in the next month, almost every three days. ”

Julian Dix took out the matchup table for the coming month.

Chen Ping, who watched it, had a headache even more.

English football is really a league that is not sympathetic to teams. Not to mention the high-density schedule of the lower leagues, the same is true of the Premier League, a top league. Especially for clubs that play the UEFA Cup, it is completely devilish schedule, and it is not at all concerned about how difficult it is for clubs to play League Cup matches. Under normal circumstances, there is basically only a two-day gap between the UEFA Cup and the league.

Plus there is a Carabao Cup in between. It makes the game very intensive.

"Chen, this is not the end of it. Heading into December, we still have a lot of games. If the League Cup is promoted, then on December 1, there will be a League Cup quarter-knockout round. On December 4th, in the 16th round of the league, we will play Portsmouth away. On December 11, in the seventeenth round of the league, we played Charlton Athletic at home. On December 16, in the group stage of the League Cup, he played Partizan Belgrade at home. On December 18, in the 18th round of the league, we played Birmingham City away. After that, it's time for Christmas. That means we have at least six games in December, and if we have more, seven. January 1 is the 19th round of the League Cup, which should also be a match in December. ”

"Chen, my suggestion is that we should give up some games appropriately. If all these games are played, the team will definitely not be able to stand it. ”
