Chapter 196: Advanced Customization

When Joanna was also free, they flew to New York.

Private jets come and go freely, and they are fast and comfortable. After spending a few hours chatting with each other, we landed smoothly at the airport, booked our cars in advance, and boarded them in two teams for our hotel in Manhattan. Since you want to join in the fun, it must be the most lively area.

Manhattan is undoubtedly the most prosperous center of New York, and the area around Central Park, where the hotel is located, offers a unique view of the dense New York. On one side, there are tall buildings, and on the other hand, it is flat and open, and the two extreme scenery blends together, which is extremely eye-catching and also fits the theme of the New Year.

This trip is mostly for sightseeing, especially to see the exotic Chinese New Year with a strong flavor of the New Year, in New York City, the Spring Festival has been a holiday since 2003, a day off. There are also some companies that do not have holidays, but the Chinese in the company have holidays, and Chinese companies generally have collective holidays.

So it's also a good choice to come to New York for the Spring Festival, the smell of the New Year is very strong, Manhattan's Chinatown is the most lively, a street is lined with red lanterns on both sides, and there are all kinds of parades to celebrate. Firecrackers and fireworks are indispensable. The old, middle, and old beauties put on traditional costumes and walked around the streets.

In order to attract tourists to the United States and increase income, the Empire State Building was dyed red on the night of the Spring Festival - the surface of the wall was lit up, red mixed with gold, which was very traditional. Fifth Avenue also has a strong Chinese element.

My brother-in-law bought a Chinese newspaper and actually gave a red envelope.

The little girl happily went to open the red envelope, but it turned out to be empty...... The girl in festive red pouted, holding the empty red envelope with an unhappy face.

In addition to a group of Chinese, there are also some foreigners who are curious about traditional culture, and they also specially turned into Tang costumes. I don't know where I learned it, I look like it, and the Chinese brothers also responded enthusiastically.

My sister looked around and said, "I feel that this year is more interesting than what I have done in China!" ”

An Feng said: "Because there are many people here. ”

My sister said: "Not necessarily, even if it is a big city in China." The smell of the New Year is not as strong as when I was a child. It's still wonderful before, every household is lit up, lanterns are hung and lion dances, and the most anticipated program for children is either firecrackers or red envelopes, and every moment is very meaningful. ”

An Feng agreed: "Yes, it's a pity that we have all grown up." ”

……

In addition to these activities, An Feng accompanied Joanna to several press conferences.

When it comes to fashion, New York is as famous as Milan, Paris and London, with this year's Fall/Winter Fashion Week held every February. Lasts seven or eight days to showcase the trendy ideas of brands from all walks of life. Joanna didn't blindly pursue fashion, but she loved one part of it: haute couture dresses. Unlike ordinary fashion, it is the autumn and winter fashion of the year released by luxury brands such as Chanel, Dior, and Armani.

Even for aristocratic celebrities, the beautiful dresses they wear for various occasions are also creative or tailor-made, and they are nothing more than hiring these famous designers. As Joanna, who often needs to accompany An Feng to various high-end social occasions, there is a high demand for dresses.

The most expensive thing about a dress is creativity, which usually accounts for 90% of the value. Tens of thousands of dollars less, hundreds of thousands more. And in principle, ladies only wear it once, and the wonderful will not be repeated, especially as the wife of a rich man. Joanna also strives for uniqueness, which is even more demanding here.

An Feng put down the newspaper, looked at Joanna who was removing her makeup, and asked, "The latest customized model...... So this is to seize the commanding heights of the trend? ”

Joanna nodded, "Of course." I hate to bump shirts or shoes with others. ”

An Feng shrugged: "After all, it is a brand, and it will be mass-produced, why don't you hire a few designers to design the most unique dress for you?" ”

Joanna wiped her face with a soft towel and said, "But the top ones don't shoot casually." It is the designers of these brands who make good works. ”

An Feng shook his head: "I can't understand." ”

Joanna looked back and said, "Just like the suit that was made to order for you last time at One Savile Row, although it is also in production, it is definitely unique. ”

Listening to the "fashionista" explain this, An Feng understood: "It means that when I have enough funds in the future, I will buy these brands?" ”

"What? Why do you always have to jump in your mind? Joanna walked over and threw herself on him with a smile.

An Feng hugged the cat and fell on the bed and said, "Isn't that? Exalted! ”

Joanna looked at him, "Do you want to have a few diamonds on me to be happy?" ”

"Gold can also be considered." An Feng is serious.

"Be serious! I'm serious, you care more about me than you can give, and I can't give you the same amount. She pouted.

An Feng hugged her tightly: "But I think that love cannot be measured by reciprocal value." ”

Joanna said, "I know that my mouth is sweet." ”

An Feng gently stroked her smooth back and smiled: "It's not sweet, why do you like to kiss me?" ”

Joanna bowed her head and kissed it, then asked, "Like this?" ”

"Yes." An Feng nodded.

……

The next afternoon, An Feng and Joanna attended a Versace press conference in formal clothes. Haute couture and haute couture are skipped, and as high-end people, they only participate in the release of haute couture dresses. They were invited by a wealthy businessman who had met at a previous cocktail party, and he heard that there were shares, so the couple beat all the celebrities and big names, and sat in the front row and the most conspicuous position.

And they are said to be big names behind them.

Where is life not pretending to be forced...... Before taking your official seat, like any other celebrity, join hands in front of the poster and strike a few poses. Joanna asked Jane, but she stood with An Feng's arm in her arms, the camera clicked, and before she could capture more of her amazement, she had already left.

After coming in in a low-key manner, he met the wealthy businessman An Feng knew, shook hands with him, and chatted a few words. The other party's attitude was very enthusiastic, obviously An Feng was the level he wanted to contact, so he was very attentive, and regarded them as high-level VIPs, and personally invited them to sit down at the position with their names on it.

There are indeed many celebrities around him, as well as some rich daughters.

But An Feng's mentality is flat, whether it is a big-name star, a political celebrity, or a family consortium, he has seen it all, and it is not surprising, not to mention that he is so rich and has such a deep background, if he still shouts, he is sorry for his identity - although there is a movie star he likes present.

Soon after An Feng sat down, the lights dimmed and the highlight was on the catwalk, with a soft music, and then a supermodel with an expressionless face, tall figure and various dresses appeared. This height and high heels are indeed standard hangers, and you can wear them casually.

An Feng's focus is on various female models, this press conference is interesting, most of the customized dresses are very luxurious, highlighting the advantages of women's bodies, Joanna is looking at all kinds of beautiful dresses, and she thinks what she should change to look better...... In the end, both men and women will have gains.

After a round of launches, Joanna said, "I saw two good ones. ”

An Feng knew what he meant: "I'll take it later." ”

Joanna smiled and continued in the stands, this time there was a second round of releases.

After appreciating these two high-end custom releases that can be called visual feasts, An Feng has gained a lot: the ladies' clothes are very profitable, and building a few pieces of cloth will also be sought after; Designers sometimes joke that if they don't change their dresses, a third of them don't believe anyone would dare to wear them.

But overall it's still very good.

So I dug up the original joke: buy the brand.

He admits that half of the starting point is Joanna, and the dress can't hit the shirt, so it needs to be unique, but the design of this one alone is very rare, and it is usually sold out, what should I do? The most direct way is to buy all the brands and let the designer design them specifically for the boss's wife.

Buy it, I don't think you dare to repeat it?

And half of it...... It's the factor of spending money, and it's obviously not a good idea to have too much money to stay in the bank and so on - it's poor now, but there will be it later. Although he also has investment projects, in the case of his own hanging, the cost consumption is very small, unlike other high-tech companies, science and technology research and development specifically burn money...... So the distributed profits can be used for something else, and the luxury industry has always been worth investing in.

Joanna listened, shook her head and said: "Luxury brands are very valuable, just like Chanel, worth five billion, even if you want to buy them, they may not sell them." ”

An Feng said poorly: "If I pay 5 billion, they will definitely not sell, but if I pay 6 billion to buy 51%, they will definitely kneel and lick!" ”

Joanna found his words to be flawless.

I'm afraid that he is one of the very few people in the world - even the royal family of the Middle East tyrants does not dare to say that they spend billions of dollars to buy a luxury brand for the purpose of designing clothes for their wives. (To be continued......)
