On a street in Huadu, a man is walking endlessly. At this time, a man who looked to be twenty-five or sixteen years old said that the woman's age was a mystery deeper than the sea, but the man's age was as difficult to guess as the woman's age. His face was an extremely ordinary-looking face, a face that, placed in the crowd, was like a drop of rain falling from the sky into the sea, and it was difficult to find it again. However, if you look closely, this face still has some significant differences from many other faces with thousands of holes.

Such a face looked very young, his skin was neither very white nor very dark, and there was not a trace of wrinkles on his face, as if he had not experienced any wind and frost, as if he was in his early twenties. However, looking closely, this face seems to have experienced I don't know how many years of vicissitudes and suffering, and how many trials and hardships in the world, but it looks like a middle-aged man who has experienced too many stories. However, this kind of feeling is not visible to ordinary people, such a feeling is actually a kind of temperament, and temperament can only be felt but not seen.

On such a face that seemed calm but hid too much wind, rain, thunder and lightning, those slender eyes stared indifferently at everything in front of them, including the clear blue sky, the buildings, the tall trees, the blooming flowers, the galloping vehicles, and of course, the men and women who came and went. In those eyes, which were neither very large nor small, there seemed to be no luster, and if there was, the luster was also faint, as if it had taken in everything that the flower had in its possession, and it seemed that nothing had been seen. How many bizarre scenes does a person's eyes have to see before they have a pair of such eyes?

He was also of average height, neither tall nor powerful, nor short and obscene. He was empty-handed, not even a single superfluous item on his body, neither a backpack, nor a mobile phone, not even a bottle of mineral water. He wore a linen T-shirt that could be bought for a few dozen dollars on the ground, a pair of shabby and unclean slacks on the bottom, and a pair of canvas shoes on his feet. The shoes, although the bottom was rubber, had been worn off almost halfway. How far does one have to go to be able to get a shoe to such a point?

The first impression of such a person is that he is a teacher, because in addition to the above characteristics, the biggest characteristic of this person is that he wears a pair of glasses. Generally speaking, a person with glasses feels a lot like he is learned, whether his knowledge is really bigger than the sky or smaller than an ant's heart, and most people will feel that way anyway. This person's glasses are very bright, although he has walked an unknown distance and experienced too much wind and dust, but there is not even a single speck of dust on the glasses, which is clean enough for people to see his indifferent eyes at a glance.

Since this person wears such a pair of glasses and has such a temperament that has experienced too many vicissitudes of life, he really looks like a very learned person, to be more precise, like a teacher. Although it can't be said that it must be like a university professor, at least it is like a high school homeroom teacher or a Chinese teacher. However, if it is a person with a ruthless eye, it will suddenly be seen that this person will definitely not be a teacher, at least not a Chinese teacher, the reason is actually very simple, if all the teachers in China are killed, they will definitely not wear such a pair of glasses.

Glasses and teachers are originally very close partners, a pair of glasses on a teacher's nose, it is a very suitable and natural thing, but such a pair of glasses, if it is on the nose of a Chinese teacher, it is even more fantastical than the Arabian Nights. The reason for this is actually very simple, it is enough to know the price of such a pair of glasses. Such a pair of glasses is actually not too expensive, far less expensive than an airplane or an aircraft carrier, that is, 500,000 euros.

500,000 euros, although it is not an astronomical amount for ordinary people, but for Chinese teachers whose income is just enough to starve to death, they can only sigh. The €500,000 pair of glasses super-aristocratic LOTOS may sound like an exaggeration, but if you agree that glasses have become part of luxury, that's a different story. Luxury for the sake of luxury is the tenet pursued by the masters who make this superb glasses.

As the heir and designer of the brand, StephanS believes that in order to maintain the brand's international status, it is necessary to strike a balance between tradition and innovation. Each pair of LOTOS glasses is custom-made to individual and can be designed to meet special requirements. The preciousness of LOTOS lies in the fact that it is only tailored to those who pursue taste and can afford to consume.

The reason for the high price of these glasses is, among other reasons, inseparable from the time taken to make them. It takes a long time to make a pair of LOTOS frames alone, from the simplest one month to the most complex one to nearly two years. Many people find it hard to believe, they think that like some intricate jewelry or a timepiece with many parts, it is not surprising that it takes so long to make it by hand, but how can a pair of glasses with two frames and two legs take so long?

From the moment the order is received, the front-line designers begin to collect customer information at close range: hair color, hair quantity, eye socket depth, eyebrow bone height, eyebrow thinning, face shape, etc. Based on this information, as well as the customer's preferences and personality requirements, the designer completes the design, and then a craftsman makes a sample according to the drawings, and the customer confirms the signature, and pays a deposit of no less than 30% of the full amount.

Design is one of the most competitive and painstaking steps at LOTOS, and it is the soul of a pair of LOTOS glasses. A LOTOS eyewear designer with a high reputation in the industry. The next glasses production process is different depending on the material selected by the customer. One of LOTOS' most famous frames is the White Buffalo Horn Frame, which can be used to make eyeglasses and is only produced in southern Germany and is rare and valuable. White buffalo horns have to go through 130 physical and chemical processes before they are actually made into frames, and after they are made, they cannot see the real value in the eyes of ordinary people, but those who know how to appreciate them are willing to pay sky-high prices, which is one of the reasons why LOTOS is rare and expensive.

Once the LOTOS craftsmen have all the materials, they start working on them in strict accordance with the design drawings. For example, for the simplest pair of LOTOS glasses, polishing a single temple requires a craftsman to dry it little by little for more than three days. The smallest screw of LOTOS costs a few hundred dollars, all made of white gold, and each one can be transformed into beautiful stud earrings. Only original screws are used for each pair of LOTOS glasses. After the manual soldering, it is a long polishing, and the solder joints on the LOTOS are not visible, and they are natural and almost perfect.

Such a complex and delicate process requires a 20x magnifying glass to carefully look at the finished product to understand, and the density of each square millimeter of LOTOS frame is two to three times that of all other glasses, and the higher the density means the more delicate and textured. Achieving such a goal on such a small frame is the persistence of LOTOS for 100 years.

One of LOTOS' unique features is its proprietary diamond cutting and setting technique, which is difficult to see with a magnifying glass. This is the result of 10 years of research by the designers and craftsmen of LOTOS. For all the curious people from the outside, President Stephan mysteriously calls it the "magic" of LOTOS.

Glasses like LOTOS are definitely nobles in glasses, or even emperors or empresses in glasses, and people who can put it on the bridge of their nose will definitely not be a commoner. What kind of man is such a man?
