Chapter 278: Very capable

He exchanged contact information with Khalid and said goodbye for the time being.

In the evening, they each find a place to be chic and romantic, and the next day is still free to move, three pairs of men and women have their own plans, there are Roger who goes to the park to see the scenery and have a picnic, and Wang Le who accompanies his wife to the mall, An Feng wants to accompany Joanna to choose a perfume that suits her heart.

Perfume is no less important to Western women than beautiful clothes and jewelry, so this aspect of the effort cannot be ignored, after deciding to come to Paris, Joanna made an appointment for a perfume customization service, and now the time is just right. They drove in the morning to the "House of Guerlain" on the Champs-Γ‰lysΓ©es.

Guerlain's brand is very famous in the French perfume industry, with a history of nearly 200 years, and was once the perfume brand of Empress Napoleon III. Naturally, it is also the top fashion pursued by a lady, especially the most extravagant tailoring services, which are coveted by countless women.

After instilling some knowledge in him, Joanna expressed her attitude: "I want to bring you a unique taste that you will never forget." ”

An Feng grabbed her little hand: "As long as you like it, I will." ”

"Don't play the brand idea!" Joanna warned.

An Feng laughed: "Do you think I'm going to buy the whole world?" ”

"Sort of." Joanna was skeptical and said, "You still have a lot to spend money on in your career, don't just invest in the secondary aspects." ”

"Well, you have the final say, my Minister of Finance!" An Feng smiled.

The hotel's courtesy car dropped them off at Route 68, where the two got off. It was still a little cold in Paris, so he put his arm around Joanna's waist and looked up to see a very ordinary building, just like the other shops on the Champs-Γ‰lysΓ©es, but it was a perfume mecca.

Once inside, you'll be greeted by rows of beautiful glass display cases and perfume bottles that are works of art. The surrounding customers are buying perfume under the recommendation of the shopping guide, and there is a very unique fragrance in the air, which makes people feel comfortable, and it is worthy of being a top perfume shop.

A shopping guide stepped forward, and after Joanna said her appointment, she was greeted upstairs.

Custom-made perfumes here start at 30,000 euros. That is, you have to spend more than 200,000 yuan to exchange for a bottle of perfume of several hundred milliliters. And under her trade-off, she felt that the bespoke model had to have long-term significance, so she invited Guerlain's creative director, Ms. de la Cotte, through high-end service.

Like an elderly Western woman, Ms. Delacotte had a lot of spots on her chest, but she smiled brightly and spoke fluent English. After shaking hands with them, sitting face-to-face at a glass table, the lady introduced some of the contents of the private customized service.

She even hit An Feng with her idea: "Perfume is very important for women. The same is true for men, as it boosts confidence and can be a unique mark. ”

Joanna agreed: "I think so. ”

An Feng smiled, and said in his heart, Madam, you should be called a "sales director" again.

In addition to the creative director's personal involvement, there is also a perfumer, a typical Frenchman, with a hooked nose, blue eyes and long hair, and the specific judgment and production are determined by him. He sat in front of the two. Brought a few panels with pictures on them, and let Joanna choose the ones she liked.

Joanna chose several styles at his prompting. Then the perfumer analyzes like a horoscope: "Madam, what you like is the smell of flowers and the lawn after the rain, which represents freshness, the second is a little aromatic, which represents cleanliness and vitality, and the last one represents flowers and sweetness." ”

"Right?" An Feng asked her.

"Maybe." Joanna said.

The perfumer smiled: "No hurry. Ma'am, this is only the first step, and it will take us a long time to get acquainted with your preferences. ”

The perfumer gave her several funnel-shaped containers to taste, followed by an exchange with the creative director and perfumer, and the topics were all about daily preferences. An Feng didn't have anything to do, so he went shopping. It's like a jewelry store, with bottles of exquisite perfume with unique shapes that are pleasing to look at.

There are even men's models.

An Feng didn't expect that even he could gain something...... After Joanna finished communicating with them, the matter was not over, for the high-value customization, after the initial understanding, we had to listen to the customer's heart from more ways to understand her preferences, temperament, taste and identity.

They will dine, chat, and visit several unique shops together for a unique smelling experience...... The whole process was tirelessly recorded, and even An Feng felt that the money was well spent. They were also recommended by Ms. de la Cote for a fine hot chocolate with a lingering aftertaste.

It was not until the afternoon that the exchange ended.

The perfumer was in a particularly good mood, describing Joanna as a dynamic and stylish woman with an aristocratic culture and an embrace of the trends of the new era...... So he was honored to be able to customize one of the most unique fragrances for such a unique woman.

An Feng listened to what he said, and he was almost impressed with admiration.

After leaving, the customization cost 200,000 euros, and it will take about a year to make it, which will also be the focus of the perfumer's future work. An Feng feels that good things have to wait, but there is no way, there is no shortcut to the production of perfume. Perfection is always a rarity.

……

That night, Joanna dressed up carefully, changed into a black suspender dress, in order to cater to the style, wore a white pearl necklace around her neck, and pinned a gold and diamond inlaid Winnie the Pooh brooch on the placket, generous and a little playful, the shape is outstanding.

She held An Feng's hand and attended the banquet held at the hotel.

Before this, the two did not know the designer at all, they had just taken a look at the press conference, and then they were invited here by Khalid, and now Khalid is nowhere to be seen...... Life requires courage, but An Feng has seen all the winds and waves, and there is no pressure to deal with these scenes.

It is customary to appear on the sign-in table first, leave your name on the poster behind you, and some people take pictures on the way, but they are all low-key and do not pose several times like other celebrity models. This behavior generally indicates that they are not public figures and that they need to pay attention to image rights.

They arrived at the splendid banquet hall, surrounded by six round tables, which had not yet been seated. According to Western custom, a cocktail party is held before the banquet starts, so that the guests can warm up and get to know each other. A lot of them are gorgeously dressed. Brightly dressed men and women are communicating.

But it seems that most of the people here are celebrities or supermodels, An Feng's social circle rarely intersects with the entertainment industry, most of his circle are rich or politicians, and at the entertainment level, he has little interest. If only there was an international celebrity. He might be interested.

After the last, he stood in the corner with a cocktail and chatted with Joanna.

It wasn't until Khalid showed up with his female companion Leila that the low-key but high-profile couple showed their faces.

Khalid came up with his female companion and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, the traffic jam on the road has delayed a while, have you waited for a long time?" ”

"It's okay, it's early." An Feng said very understandingly.

Khalid gave Joanna another hug and led them away: "Please come with me, Mr. Sabo and Leila know each other very well." ”

Khalid's Lebanese girlfriend, Leila, is compatriots with designer Saab. Soon. A small, honest-looking guy appeared with a female companion. Khalid introduced: "This is Ellie. Mr. Saab, this is his wife. These two came from afar, and it was Bruce. Ann and his wife. ”

Seeing that it was Khalid who introduced him, Sabo didn't dare to slack off, reached out and shook An Feng, and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. An." ”

Then he shook Joanna's hand again and smiled, "Allow me to praise your beauty and temperament from the bottom of my heart." You are something that cannot be ignored in the crowd. ”

"Thank you. It's also a pleasure to meet you. Joanna said.

"In terms of designers, Saab is the best in the world," Khalid said. Including the beautiful dress on Lyra's body, which also came from him. ”

"Thank you, Khalid." Saab said with a smile.

Khalid continued: "This friend of mine has come over today to talk to you about something. ”

Sabo looked at An Feng, he didn't beat around the bush, and said straightly: "Mr. Sabo." My wife and I have watched several of your high-end dress releases and feel that it is very much in line with her aesthetic in terms of creativity and styling, it must be perfect to wear on her, and she loves your creativity. ”

"Xie Lu Xie, Mr. An. And Madame. Saab smiled, and someone praised the natural pleasantness.

An Feng said: "In addition, I am also interested in your brand, if you want, I can offer very good conditions." ”

Sabo listened and said with a smile: "I am very grateful sir, for your good impression of my brand, but it is now the dinner stage, and I am afraid that I don't have much time to discuss with you in detail." If we have the chance, how about we find a time to talk about this? ”

"It's really not right now, I can understand that." An Feng knew that this was a tactful expression that he was not interested, but he still took out the business card and handed it to him.

Saab took the business card and exchanged his own with him.

After a few more words, he went to entertain the other guests. Khalid said, "Bruce, it seems that you don't have enough money charm." ”

An Feng has a good mentality: "There is always nothing satisfactory in the world, and I don't plan to take this single-plank bridge." ”

Khalid looked at the couple and said, "Please don't go yet, I'll help you say a few words." ”

Things didn't go any further, and Joanna was clearly not interested in the people here, and even though the dinner hadn't officially started, the idea of quitting was there.

An Feng said, "Thank you, Khalid. ”

"Thank me later." Khalid walked to where Sabo was, pulled him aside and said something, and then looked at An Feng's side, too far away to know what to say...... Khalid smiled and picked up a glass of champagne and touched it with him.

When Khalid came back, he said, "Things are going well, tomorrow he will find a place to talk to you." ”

An Feng was even more curious about what he said: "How did you do it?" ”

Khalid didn't hide it either: "I'll tell you the truth, Ann is a super-rich man with a deep background, a member of a big consortium, and when you feel that LVMH, Hermes and other groups are big and rich, in front of him is just an upstart with a few gold bricks in his pocket, which is not worth mentioning." ”

An Feng laughed.

"Don't mind, do you?" Khalid said.

"It's nice to have someone to help me get the word out, but be careful not to scare people." An Feng said with a smile.

Khalid said: "I still talk about your ability in a small way, who in the world does not know about new energy and super chips?" I think the people who can change the world are more powerful than the president of the United States. The president of the United States is to some extent to disrupt the world, but technology is changing the future. (To be continued......)
