The January sun brings the warmth of winter, not warm but just right. There are gradually more people in the city square outside the Starlight Mall, there are girlfriends who meet in pairs to go shopping together, couples who are on sweet dates, and student parties like Shen Fan and them.

Yan Ke still has a few performances below, and there are other members of the band, so he can't be with Shen Fan.

"You help me tell my parents, I'm not going back this time." Yan Ke struggled for a long time and decided, "We plan to participate in a talent competition, which is held by Shenzhou TV." ”

"Draft?" Shen Fan was a little surprised, in her memory, Yan Ke should not have participated in the competition in high school, and later the national draft was popular, Yan Ke also regretted with Shen Zhang, saying that when he formed a band, why didn't he think of participating in the competition, otherwise he would have performed on a big stage and sang to so many people, even if it was disbanded in the end, it would not be a pity.

"Yes, the last time I talked to you about Q, I happened to see the registration news, and after discussing it, we decided to try it, so let's experience it." Yan Ke didn't care much about it, but Shen Qiao knew that although the talent show had declined in the later period, it still attracted a lot of attention at the beginning.

"Then you come on, I support you!"

"Well, I'll go back and buy a mobile phone later, and I'll give you a call when the time comes, and it will be convenient to contact you later." Yan Ke hurried to Shen Fan as he spoke, "You hurry up and go in, see that other people are still here to blow the cold wind with you." ”

Shen Fan and Yan Ke were speaking in the background, and Gu Dingheng and Zhong Qi were standing under a tree not far away, not knowing what they were talking about. She wasn't too embarrassed to keep them waiting.

"Well, be careful yourself."

Due to the early hours, the buffet restaurant was not officially opened, and the three of them could only go shopping in the Starlight Mall. Starlight is a high-end shopping mall in Shenzhou City, and basically all the brands that can be settled in are international brands, and a few of Shen Fan can only be seen.

It's hard to imagine what it's like to go to Starlight with two teenage boys, but thanks to the chatter of Zhong Period, the mouth basically never stops.

"Class representative, you must be beautiful in this outfit!"

"Ah Ding Ah Ding, look, then I'm going to save up for sneakers."

"There's nothing to play here, class representative, next time we go to □□, there is a real ice rink, you can skate with skates, it's super cool."

Not to mention, this really makes Shen Zhang's heart move, she has always been a sports fan, she likes to watch any sports, and she paid attention to it long before the people of the whole country were obsessed with winter sports. In the early days, short track speed skating was bullied internationally, and she didn't know how many tears she shed when she was treated unfairly by referees and opponents.

Later, as she grew up, she also encountered a lot of injustices, and she encountered many injustices that she couldn't achieve even if she tried hard. Slowly, her understanding of short track speed skating began to change. Short track speed skating is like life, there are many accidents, some people will foul, there are no mistakes, there are also mistakes of their own teammates, and its charm is precisely that no one can predict the outcome until the last minute. Sometimes, even if you succeed one moment, the next you may be declared invalid, falling from the high clouds into the mud.

"Okay, but we'll have to wait until winter break." Shen Fan nodded in agreement, but only if she did well in the final exam first.

"Okay, I'll make an appointment with you then." Zhong also knows that the end of the period will end soon, so it is better to converge.

After that, the three of them walked around most of the starlight, and when the buffet restaurant finally opened at eleven o'clock, it took half a day of physical strength to definitely eat the return ticket price.

When Shen Fan came home and saw a table of her favorite dishes, she had no appetite at all!

"Ah Yan, why don't you eat it?" Mother Shen looked at her daughter who didn't move a few chopsticks and was a little worried, "Is it too tired to study?" Or do you get motion sickness again in the car? ”

"No, Mom, I'm in good health, and I'm no longer motion sick." Shen Fan shook his head and blinked his eyes and said, "It's just that at noon, classmates please eat, I eat too much...... I haven't digested it yet. ”

"You girl, how can you casually let your classmates invite you to dinner? I'm embarrassed to eat so much. Shen's mother said disapprovingly.

"This shows that our Ah Fan is very popular, and it's not a big deal for classmates to eat together, so it's good to go back next time." Shen's father defended his daughter when he spoke up.

Grandpa Shen smiled on the side, and asked a little uneasily, "Still holding on?" Do you want to take some digestive medicine? Remember not to overeat in the future, it is not good for the stomach. "Since he was diagnosed with stomach problems, my grandfather began to pay attention to health problems and bought related books to read.

"It's much better now, well, Grandpa I remember." Shen Fan nodded obediently and agreed, "You don't need to take the medicine, I'll make some hawthorn water to drink later." ”

"Then don't eat it, grandpa will soak it for you." Grandpa Shen got up and went to the kitchen as he spoke.

Shen's mother looked at Shen Fan and sighed and said, "You, grandpa went to buy vegetables early in the morning and was busy all afternoon, but you didn't eat." Your grandfather is going back to his hometown. ”

"What? Grandpa is going back, why? Isn't the disease still being treated? How can I go back? Shen Fan couldn't help but raise his voice.

"What are you talking about?" Shen's mother scolded her, "Your uncle must have said something ugly when he called, and the old man answered the phone and said that he was going back......"

"Dad, do you agree?" Shen Fan looked at Father Shen in disbelief, "What about Grandpa's body?" ”

Father Shen's expression was gloomy and helpless: "You don't know your grandfather's temper, and your mother and I can't persuade you." He sighed again. Your grandfather also went to the doctor himself, and said that as long as you take medicine on time and have regular check-ups, you can do gastroscopy anywhere, and it is the same when you go home to recuperate. ”

"That's right, the doctors agreed, don't talk about it, don't worry, my old bones aren't that bad." Grandpa Shen walked out with hawthorn water and put it in front of Shen Fan, "Ah Fan doesn't need to remember grandpa, you study hard by yourself, and it only matters if you are admitted to a good university." ”

Shen Fan took his grandfather's hand and coquettishly: "Then what should I do if I miss my grandfather?" I'm so busy with my homework that I can't even go to see you...... Grandpa promised me to come and see me once a month, okay? ”

"Okay, Ah Fan misses grandpa, grandpa will come." Grandpa Shen agreed with a smile.

Because Grandpa Shen was going back to his hometown, Shen Fan couldn't lift his spirits during the whole holiday. In the end, Zhang Chi couldn't stand it anymore and dragged her to the factory.

"Brand VI is still designing, but there are already a few proofs of the new shoes you designed, why don't you try it?"

Not to mention, this really made Shen Fan feel energetic, and she liked to try on shoes.

Because there is still some time before the launch of the new product, the design is all spring and autumn and summer models. Zhang Chi and Shen Fan each chose a few pairs in the proofing room, and when they were put together, the styles were very different!

"Do you want to choose such a simple one? I don't know, I think you chose it for Aunt Shen! Zhang Chi was a little dissatisfied, "Can you choose some youthful?" ”

Shen Fan smiled and teased him: "I can't see that children still like gorgeous styles." ”

In fact, Shen Fan's preference for shoes has always been comfortable, especially high heels. You must know that she often needs to stand all day in high heels when she works, and the heels are generally not low.

Girls generally know that beautiful high heels are not difficult to buy, but comfortable high heels are difficult to buy. It's not that Shen Fan hasn't worn a big brand of shoes and thousands of shoes at every turn, but there are really very few shoes that can be comfortable. Either the heel grinds against the foot, or the sole is soft and hard, or it is completely flashy.

"Isn't our target consumer group young white-collar workers? Could it be a middle-aged woman? Zhang Chi was sarcastic and merciless.

"Young white-collar workers must like such fancy things?" Shen Fan pursed his lips disdainfully, shook his fingers and said, "Young man, it shows that you don't know women too well." ”

"Do you know? I'm not a yellow-haired girl, I really think I'm a big sister. Zhang Chi especially hated Shen Fan for treating him as a child.

"Women are the same at any age, there can be many pairs of beautiful shoes, but there must be one pair of comfortable shoes. But beautiful shoes are just worn, but comfortable shoes will be remembered for many years. We are a new brand, and instead of making some superficial shows, we should really make a pair of shoes that can impress people. ”

Shen Fan continued while trying on shoes: "Shoes are like feelings, only you know whether they are good or not, so they are more worthy of our attention." Invest in every pair of shoes as if they were an emotion. ”

"Speak like you're a designer." Zhang Chi actually listened very carefully and agreed, but the dead duck refused to admit it.

Awkward child, Shen Fan lowered his head and snickered, but he didn't care much.

In this way, Shen Fan and Zhang Chi tried one pair after another, tried every pair of shoes that came out of the proof, and then picked out what Shen Fan thought was good and recorded it and handed it to Uncle Zhang and Shen's father.

"I suggest that we can recruit some young girls online and try them on and collect feedback, which is also a market research, what do you think?" Shen Fan said his thoughts, "This approach can more directly understand the user experience of consumers. ”

"It's a good idea, and it's better to have the target consumers pick the new products themselves, which will be closer to their needs." Uncle Zhang affirmed her idea, "By the way, you can also do publicity." ”

Seriously, Uncle Zhang is indeed a very business-minded person, and he naturally understands brand effect.

"The last time I contacted several leather suppliers, I will also give feedback recently, when the time comes, I will go to the local area, anyway, I don't understand these things about advertising, I will choose the raw materials." Father Shen is also very aware of his strengths and weaknesses, and cooperates with Uncle Zhang, "In addition, we also have to screen a few more suppliers for the metal." ”

Watching the discussion between Dad and Uncle Zhang, Shen Fan felt that it was still necessary to specialize in the art industry, and it really took a very strong team to be a brand.

"In the future, we will pass on the brand from generation to generation and make it a century-old brand!" Uncle Zhang is full of pride.

When Shen Fan returned to school, he finally stopped having a bitter face, and finally got into the car to the city after repeatedly telling his grandfather.

When he went to school on Monday, Shen Fan learned a peachy news from Shi Yao, a classmate of "Bai Xiaosheng of Shenda High School": Lu Yuezhi made a girlfriend of Caida and fell out with his family.

Girlfriend?

Shen Fan remembered the girl named Lin Zhi she saw when she was lying down, was it her?

"Is this lame? Or sell yourself for money! Zhong period complained in dissatisfaction.

Shen Fan looked at Lu Yuezhi's empty seat, did he expect him to sell his body or be lame?
