Pronovias Flagship, 94 New Bond Street, Mayfair, London. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Lin Feng sat on the sofa, flipping through fashion magazines, waiting for Ye Weiyu to appear.

"Lin Feng" shouted softly, and Lin Feng raised his head.

Eye-catching!

Lin Feng had seen the wedding dress design draft discussed by the designer and Ye Weiyu, and knew that it was very beautiful, but he didn't expect that when Ye Weiyu really wore it, it would be so beautiful!

This is a bandeau fishtail mopping wedding dress, the upper body of the exquisite lace embroidery, full of fantasy and noble atmosphere, the design style of the fishtail makes the wedding dress along her waistline and hip line tightly fit, showing her curvy graceful figure beautifully, and Italian silk and French lace hand-embroidered material, full of European classical court atmosphere, up to three meters, the long skirt tail of the combination of satin and white yarn adds to her noble and elegant temperament.

She did not wear the ornate mopping veil in the blueprints, but simply wore a white petal headdress on her head that resembled the lace petals on her upper body.

Sun Lin and Zhao Jing accompanied her with a smile, carefully helping her lift the back skirt, and the white-haired but still elegant designer Bruce Oldfield stood next to her with a smile, also looking at the works she designed with praise eyes, because the time was relatively short, it took half a month for 500 embroiderers of Pronovias to make this wedding dress, which was embroidered by hand.

Lin Feng stood up unconsciously, greeted him with a smile, took Ye Weiyu's hand, and kissed her face: "Yezi, you are so beautiful!"

"Is it good-looking?" Ye Weiyu smiled like a flower.

Lin Feng nodded: "It's beautiful!"

Bruce complimented, "Richard, congratulations, you have a beautiful fiancée!"

Lin Feng shook hands with him: "Thank you too, Bruce, for the perfect design. ”

Bruce laughed, "It's my mission, to be able to witness the bride's happy moments at the wedding, and it's also Pronovias' greatest luck!"

He said to Ye Weiyu again: "Vivian, I hope this is what you want!"

Ye Weiyu walked to the floor-to-ceiling mirror and looked at herself in the mirror with fascination, this is what she had dreamed of, and it was also the first time in her life that she put on a wedding dress, although it was not the wedding day, but she was still excited, and it was difficult for herself.

Hearing Bruce's words, she looked back and smiled, "Yes, Bruce, this is the wedding dress of my dreams...... , thank you!"

Bruce smiled and nodded.

Ye Weiyu thought of something, and said to Sun Lin and Zhao Jing: "Xiao Lin, Jingjing, you two also go and try on the skirt, you are all my bridesmaids, you must be beautiful!"

Sun Lin shook his head and said, "Don't worry, when Sister Bao'er and Sister Shujie arrive, let's try it together...... Today, we will serve you as a bride first!"

Lin Feng looked at the petal headdress on Ye Weiyu's head, and said with a smile: "Ye Zi, the wedding dress is almost tried, let's go and see the jewelry again, seeing your headdress, I suddenly feel that my princess should have a crown!"

Ye Weiyu was a little embarrassed, and glanced at Sun Lin and the others: "What a princess, I'm just a Cinderella!"

Lin Feng laughed and said, "Didn't Cinderella become a princess in the end?"

Although Ye Wei said this, she still obediently went to change her clothes, and she also hoped that her wedding would be more perfect.

Mayfair is the most expensive area in all of London, while Bond Street is home to flagship stores of luxury brands in London.

Not far from the Pronovies flagship store, at the end of Bond Street, is the store of Garrard, the world's oldest jewellery brand.

Founded in 1735, this jeweller has been the "royal jeweler" of the United Kingdom for nearly 200 years, and has designed crowns and jewelry for the coronation of six generations of British dynasties, including Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, King Edward VII, King George V and Queen Mary, as well as the longest-reigning current monarch of the United Kingdom, Queen Elizabeth II.

In 1843, Queen Victoria conferred the title of "Crown Jewellers" on GARRARD and began producing large quantities of silver and jewellery for the British royal family, while maintaining the crown.

THE CORONATION CROWN OF QUEEN MARIE IN 1911, THE INDIAN CROWN WORN BY KING GEORGE V, AND THE CROWN OF QUEEN ELIZABETH IN 1937 ARE ALL FROM GARRARD.

Tradition means tradition, and tradition means expensive, and what comes with high is of course the best jewelry and service in the world.

Lin Feng and his party came to Gerald's store.

Li Zhao and Li Qiang were dressed in black suits, with serious expressions, and followed behind Lin Feng, while Sun Lin and Zhao Jing were beautiful and generous, accompanying Ye Weiyu, so that when six people walked into the store, Gerald's clerk could naturally see that these Oriental people were obviously either rich or expensive.

As a jeweler with a long tradition, meeting the world's richest people is the foundation of long-term business, and when he learned that Lin Feng was the richest man in China with a net worth of billions of dollars, the store manager personally received him.

"Crown?" The 60-year-old British gentleman looked at Ye Weiyu and said suddenly: "Of course, Gerald has a history of making crowns for the royal family for hundreds of years, this beautiful young lady, you can get the most beautiful crown in the world here!"

He asked Lin Feng to wait for a while, walked into the back, and after a while, walked out with a tray, and on the black silk cloth in the tray, there was a brilliant triple crown.

The band at the bottom of the tiara is set with a number of perfectly cut diamonds, and one arch after another is topped by an exquisite diamond-encrusted Valentine's Knot, each of which is topped by a teardrop-shaped pearl. In the top row of the crown are small pillars, each with a sparkling diamond.

"You should have all heard of the Cambridge Lover's Knot, this crown was made by Garrard for Queen Mary, and later worn by Queen Victoria and Princess Diana, although this one is not the original, but it is exactly the same replica, and the diamonds and pearls on it are very precious treasures, it can be said that in addition to the historical value, in terms of the value of the jewelry itself, it is not inferior to the real thing. ”

He paused and smiled, "Of course, we can also customize a crown for Miss Vivian, but it will take a long time to make, so if your wedding date is approaching, you may want to consider this one." ”

"Cambridge Lover's Knot?" Lin Feng thought for a moment and asked, "Is it pearl tears?" This is a famous crown full of pathos with the death of Princess Diana. Legend has it that there is also a not-so-good symbolism: according to legend, any woman with "pearl tears" will not have a good emotional home.

"It's so beautiful, why is it called Pearl Tears?" Ye Weiyu was attracted by this beautiful crown at a glance.

Lin Feng saw that Ye Weiyu was holding the crown and couldn't put it down, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Yezi, Pearl Tears is the crown that Princess Diana once carried, and there are many ominous legends...... Why don't we change it? ”

"That's right...... All right. Ye Weiyu reluctantly put the "Pearl Tears" back into the tray, and her eyes were reluctant to leave.

Lin Feng asked the store manager, "Are there any other styles of crowns?"

The store manager hesitated: "There is another one, the Lotus Crown, but ...... This crown is not only set with 739 hexahedral cut diamonds and 149 elongated cut diamonds, but also an extremely rare 11.18 carat Kashmir natural flawless sapphire, so it is very expensive ......".

Lin Feng suddenly became interested: "Oh, sapphires are very rare, take them out and take a look, the price is not a problem." ”

The store manager hesitated, this is the treasure of the store, and ordinary people will not easily see it.

But thinking about it, since Lin Feng is the richest man in China, he should be worthy of wealth and power, so he nodded: "Okay, two, please follow me." ”

He led Lin Feng and Ye Weiyu to the VIP room at the back, waited for a while, and carefully took out a crown from the safe in the back storage room.

It is also a very beautifully crafted crown, made entirely of countless diamonds, and an oval-shaped sapphire is set in the largest lotus flower in the front of the crown.

Ye Weiyu exclaimed: "It's so beautiful!" The emotions that were still a little reluctant to "Pearl Tears" before were immediately attracted by this crown and left it behind.

Lin Feng took it and gently put it on Ye Weiyu's head, and after taking off her coat when she entered the store, Ye Weiyu, who was wearing a blue dress, carried this crown inlaid with sapphires, which was surprisingly harmonious and even more beautiful!

"That's it!" Lin Feng immediately felt that this was the most suitable crown for Ye Weiyu.

"Mr Lin, she's worth £12 million. The store manager said at the right time. He used "she" instead of "it", which shows the status of this crown in his heart.

"No problem, it's her!" Lin Feng nodded.

12 million pounds is indeed a very expensive price, but such a treasure is rare to see, and it is prepared for the wedding of the two, Lin Feng feels that he should buy it. He can afford it anyway.

In the end, Lin Feng bought this "Sapphire Lotus Crown" and named her "Heart of the Leaf". The crown will be kept in Gerrard's safe before being delivered to Leeds Castle on the wedding day. Later, the two were followed back by a special plane.

On this day's trip to London, I completed two wedding-related purchases, trying on wedding dresses and buying jewelry, which was also worth the trip.

In the evening, Ye Weiyu will communicate with Colin, the wedding planner who arrived in London in advance, about some details of wedding preparations at the hotel where the two are staying.

Lin Feng has other arrangements.

Previously, Li Mengyuan was looking for institutions overseas to raise funds and issue bonds for the popular bank, and finally determined several fund management companies in the United Kingdom, as the world's three major financial centers and the largest financial center in Europe, these fund institutions are all in London.

Since Lin Feng is here, he naturally needs to meet these gold masters.

Tomorrow he will leave London and go to Leeds Castle in Kent to see the wedding taking place.

This meeting, these institutions in the UK also attached great importance to it, and chose Annabel's Club.

Founded in 1963, Annabel has long been one of the most exclusive private nightclubs in the world. It is also one of the top 10 clubs in the world.

Founder Mark Birley named the club after his wife at the time. Its lavish Mayfair Bar & Restaurant was originally designed by Birley and Nina Campbell and later renovated by Birley's daughter, India Jane. Frank Sinatra was the first celebrity to join the club, which has attracted celebrities such as Prince William, Lady Gaga and Mick Jagger since it was taken over by royalty (in fact in partnership with Hollywood).

Annabel's is famous not only because it's in Berkeley Square, but also because it's the only club the Queen has ever stayed in. At Annabel's, it's not uncommon to brush up on celebrities. The unbeatable décor design and the special cocktails make you feel that this place is still filled with the glow of the 60s.

Lin Feng, accompanied by Li Mengyuan and Li Dong, came to Annabel's Club in Mayfair.

The high-ranking officials of Fengxing and Menglong had already rushed to London to attend Lin Feng's wedding a few days later.

A group of English gentlemen, dressed in formal attire, were already waiting in the club's private rooms.

"Boss, this is Mr. Howard of Nova Investment Management, this is Mr. Paul of Independent Pine Assets, this is Mr. Phil of Sloan-Robinson Asset Management, this is Mr. Johnson of Flemington Investment Management......"

Li Mengyuan introduced Lin Feng one by one.

Lin Feng looked at it, laughed, hugged and shook hands with some of them.

"It's all old friends, Joe, I said why you look like nothing, don't you already know?"

Li Dong shrugged his shoulders: "It's all written in the report I handed over to you...... , haven't you taken a closer look?"

Lin Feng was helpless: "I'm already dizzy just by looking at the bond stuff you introduced, and I haven't thought too much about the names of these companies......

It turned out that these companies were all fund companies that had one-on-one communication with Lin Feng when Menglong went public during the roadshow, and they also subscribed to Menglong's shares, obviously, now, this is a good deal, and they have at least 3 times the return.

"Richard, long time no see, you're still so young!"

After everyone sat down, they raised their glasses and lit cigars, and the old Phil, who was over 50 years old, smiled.

"Thank you, this popular bond issuance, there is no commitment to share transfer, there is no guarantee, you can invest, it is for me, for the popular and the trust in the Chinese market, I salute everyone!" Lin Feng raised his glass and smiled.

"Cheers!"

He said it easily, but in fact, he knew very well in his heart that these people were crocodiles, and they wouldn't throw money in so generously if they didn't see the benefits.

Obviously, the performance of the popular industry and the expectation of future listings are what really attract them.

However, it is normal that in business, everyone is here to make money.

But we must always put a veil of warmth on the naked interests.
