Chapter 166: Trust Is Not Something Says with the Mouth (6000 Words)
Er's words to worship Wei Zi as a teacher were said in his authentic hometown accent. Not only that, after saying this sentence to Wei Zi that he wanted to apprentice, the expression on Er 's face became solemn and solemn.
Although I don't know what happened between Er and Wei Zi, after seeing the expression and expression on Er's face change, Mr. Li, who was already full of doubts, became even more nervous, and his heart was beating up and down.
However, he didn't understand the language, and he was kicked out by El with an excuse. At the moment, Mr. Li could only take his female translator Guo Min, together with the other two middle-aged people, secretly standing at the door of the office, watching Wei Zi and Er through the crack in the door.
As for the good-looking female translator Guo Min, she was huddled with Mr. Li with a flushed face at the moment, put her ear to the office door, and listened to the conversation between Wei Zi and Er very embarrassed.
It's a pity that Wei Zi and Er still use French with a strong dialect, and Guo Min still doesn't understand it well.
In this case, Guo Min originally wanted to leave. After all, it is embarrassing enough to huddle together with Mr. Li. As a result, he was still eavesdropping outside the door, if he was caught by Wei Zi, he would not be embarrassed to death.
However, when Guo Min turned around and wanted to leave, he met Mr. Li's anxious eyes.
"Xiao Guo, did you hear what they said clearly?" Seeing Guo Min turn around, Mr. Li thought that Guo Min had heard something, and couldn't help but ask at the moment.
Facing Mr. Li's anxious eyes, Guo Min's face turned red, and when the words came to his mouth, the ghost made a miracle: "No, I didn't hear clearly." After finishing speaking, Guo Min subconsciously lowered his head and fell silent like a child who had done something wrong.
If someone squatted down at this time, they would definitely see Guo Min's eyes full of tears. Because, just now, she lied. It's not that she didn't hear Wei Zi and Er's voices, but she couldn't understand Wei Zi and Er's accents.
The reason why Guo Min wanted to lie was because she really needed this job so much, and she was afraid that Li would fire her.
Mr. Li didn't know about this, and he didn't care. After all, people speak in dialects, and it's normal for us not to understand them. At the moment, I didn't care about Guo Min's small actions.
Seeing that Guo Min couldn't hear their words clearly, Mr. Li suddenly turned his heart sideways, and he pushed open the door and walked in.
The moment he entered the office, Mr. Li locked on to Wei Zi with his eyes. I saw that he was angry, and he said to Wei Zi: "Boy, what did Mr. El say to you just now?" ”
empty
Wei Zi had already noticed the sex price of Mr. Li and others peeping outside the door, but he did not expose it. What is the use of debunking? Except for embarrassment or embarrassment. How nice is that, they can't understand the French that El and himself speak anyway.
Therefore, after Mr. Li broke into the door, Wei Zi just habitually touched his nose and told Mr. Li what Er said.
"Mr. El said he wanted to worship me as a teacher." Wei Zi looked like an honest child and said to Mr. Li.
"What? What the? What the? Hearing Wei Zi say this, Mr. Li was slightly stunned, and shouted three times in a row, "What." Then he turned around with a strange look on his face, and looked at the two companions who followed behind him.
"Boy, do you know who Mr. El is? How could he worship you as a teacher? Before Mr. Li could speak, the middle-aged man with a Chinese face behind him sneered.
"You know, his name is El, Givenchy, and he is a member of the Givenchy family in France." Facing the sneer of this middle-aged man, Wei Zi said calmly. Not only that, Wei Zi also continued without shock: "I also know that he fully legally holds the shares of the Givenchy family in the LVMH group. ”…,
Mr. Li, who was already full of doubts, heard Wei Zi say this, and his heart sank to the bottom all of a sudden. He didn't expect that the turtle in front of him, who had accidentally killed, not only knew Mr. El's name, but also knew so many things about El.
Thinking of this, Mr. Li suddenly felt that things were very tricky, and some were beyond his control.
Regarding the conversation between Mr. Li and Wei Zi, Guo Min, as a translator, does not say anything, Er is similar to listening to the book of heaven. Fortunately, Wei Zi also understands French, and when Mr. Li was silent because of shock, Er finally found a vacancy.
I saw him say to Wei Zi with a solemn face: "Dear Mr. Wei, I want to worship you as a teacher, can you accept me?" ”
Seeing the solemn expression on Er's face, Wei Zi couldn't laugh or cry a little. The reason why he stood up and pointed out some problems in Eyre's design was just to disgust and disgust Givenchy's brand, disgust and disgust those salespeople who looked down on people, and by the way, he took out this bad breath, but he didn't think that Eyre would worship himself as a teacher.
"Dear Mr. El, I heard you right! Do you want to worship me as a teacher? Do you know what I do? Wei Zi smiled bitterly.
"Dear Mr. Wei, you heard it right, in terms of clothing design, your design is novel, bold ideas, dare to break the convention, from the clothes you designed, I can deeply feel the magic of China. Therefore, no matter what you do, I have decided to worship you as a teacher, please accept me as an apprentice. El said with a serious face.
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Wei Zi to speak, Er was about to kneel in front of Wei Zi in front of everyone.
"Mr. El, Mr. El, what are you doing here?" I didn't expect that El, the Frenchman, would come to this hand, and at the moment when his knees were about to hit the ground, Wei Zi hurriedly stretched out his arms and held El up, and said with a smile and a smile.
"Dear Mr. Wei, I know your Chinese tradition, this apprenticeship needs to kowtow." El bent his knees slightly, made a kowtow antics gesture, and said to Wei Zi.
"Er, it's true that you need to kowtow to apprentice in Huaxia. However, it does not mean that if you kowtow, you can successfully apprentice. Wei Zi smiled bitterly.
"Dear Mr. Wei, then you can say it! What do you need me to do to accept me as an apprentice? Seeing that Wei Zi's tone was a little loose, Er struck while the iron was hot, and asked as he climbed down the pole.
I didn't expect Er to be so stubborn, and he lowered his face to worship himself, and after Wei Zi helped him up, he said: "Dear Mr. Er, in fact, you don't have to be arrogant." To be honest, in my opinion, your design is very good, it is a combination of elements from many different cultures, and it is also full of whimsy, fun and creative. ”
For Wei Zi's heartfelt admiration, Er seemed to be tired of hearing it for a long time, only to see that after Wei Zi said this, he drooped his head and said to Wei Zi a little discouraged: "Dear Mr. Wei, you don't need to comfort me, I know what level my design is." If that's what you say, why is my design unattended? On the contrary, those fashion designers who are not as good as me can become popular. You said? Isn't that ridiculous? ”
Ga!
As soon as El said this, Wei Zi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that this would be the case with El.
That's the way this world is, though. Sometimes, no matter how full of whimsy and amazing ideas your design is, the market, only the market is the only criterion for testing this qiē. If the market reaction is not strong, then even if your design is full of whimsy and creativity, it will be in vain, and you will only be eliminated by the market in the end, and El is facing such a dilemma. …,
In fact, from the very beginning of his contact with fashion design, El has shown an amazing talent and is known as the most talented fashion designer in the French fashion industry for nearly two decades. But with such brilliance, after graduating from El University and entering the design department of the LVMH group, the clothes he designed have never appeared in any fashion exhibition, even if it is the lowest grade.
On the contrary, those designers who are not as talented as El always design clothes that can unexpectedly appear on the T-shaped catwalks of major fashion weeks.
In this regard, although no one has said anything in front of El, but behind the scenes, El has almost become the laughing stock of the French fashion industry.
Although his designs are still so creative and full of whimsy, it is a pity that he misses out on success every time.
Fortunately, in the face of so many setbacks, El is still passionate about clothing design and continues to innovate.
"Old Black, why is this happening to El? Isn't there something wrong? Seeing the lonely look on Er's face, Wei Zi couldn't help but feel sorry for his talents.
"Ah Zi, there is nothing wrong with Eyre's design, he is indeed a very talented designer. The reason why he has been repeatedly frustrated is because there are people in the LVMH group who do not want to make El famous. Lao Hei said.
"Why? Isn't El a design owned by LVMH? How can anyone suppress their own designers? Wei Zi asked puzzled.
"Ah Zi, why can't you figure out such a thing at this time?" In the virtual space, Lao Hei shook his head helplessly and said: "In the face of interests, as long as it can be discarded, no matter what it is, no matter how important this thing is, it will be discarded, let alone a small designer." ”
After Lao Hei said this, and then thought of those people who were hiding in the shadows and plotting to seize the shares of LVMH held by El, Wei Zi suddenly understood why El was in this embarrassing place now.
LVMH does not allow a second Bell, De, Givenchy.
However, it is one thing to understand, and how to make El understand is another matter.
Judging from El's current appearance, he may not know what kind of dangerous situation he is in. Therefore, what Wei Zi said was in vain. After all, on the surface, Eyre's mind is on clothing design, and he doesn't care about the infighting within the family or the LVMH group, or he is not good at intrigue at all.
Thinking of this, Wei Zi's brows couldn't help frowning. It's really hard for El to carry the burden of a family. Fortunately, over the years, he has survived.
However, then again, although the Givenchy family holds a significant stake in the LVMH group, they are not the largest shareholders of the group after all. Therefore, it is generally not necessary to participate in the management of the group except for the general meeting of the board of directors.
Moreover, the members of the Givenchy family are not all mediocre people, most of them have their own property, enough to support their families, and not all of them live on this share.
It is precisely because of this that the inheritance of this share fell to the genius fashion designer El. After all, the Givenchy family started out with clothing design, and at this point, as long as conditions permit, there is a suitable heir, and the Givenchy family has never given up the glory of their ancestors.
Just, I don't know why? Now, both within the LVMH group and within the Givenchy family, there are people who are eyeing this part of the shares in the hands of El.
"Lao Hei, give me a check on the financial situation and operation of the LVMH group." Wei Zidao. …,
"By the way, and the accounts of all the members of the Givenchy family." Finally, Wei Zi did not forget Jì and added.
The things Wei Zi did seemed to take a long time, but in fact, it only took a few seconds for the topic to return to Er. After he finished pouring out his distress to Wei Zi, he saw him look at Wei Zi with bright eyes, and said with a serious face: "Dear Mr. Wei, you are the most talented designer I have ever seen, I think through your words and deeds, I will definitely be able to improve." ”
Seeing Er praising himself so much, Rao was Wei Zi's temperament, and he was also very embarrassed at the moment, and he didn't know what to say.
Although Wei Zi's talent in costume design amazed Erdu, he knew his own family affairs, and Wei Zi knew that he was just a fluke, and he was not necessarily much better than Er. Besides, Wei Zi's mind is not on clothing design, how can he mislead people's children?
However, when Wei Zi saw Er's expectant gaze, he couldn't resist him with a hard heart.
"What to do? What to do? Wei Zi was like an ant on a hot pot, constantly asking himself in his heart.
"Fool, what's so hard about that? Rather than being excluded from the LVMH group, it is better to let him set up his own business and start his own business. In this way, you will have your first career. Just when Wei Zi didn't know how to respond, Lao Hei couldn't help but stand up and say.
"That's right! Instead of standing still, it is better to take the initiative, there is no doubt about El's level, what is missing is only an opportunity, an opportunity to show his talents. After muttering in his heart, Wei Zi said to Er: "Dear Mr. Er, do you really want to worship me as a teacher?" ”
As soon as Wei Zi said this, El immediately understood. At that moment, I saw him say very movingly: "Yes, respected Mr. Wei, I, Er want to worship you as a teacher." ”
Seeing Er say this, Wei Zi smiled slightly and said, "There is no problem in accepting your apprentice." However, I have one condition. ”
"Dear Mr. Wei, as long as you are willing to accept me as an apprentice, I am willing to agree to you on any conditions?" Seeing that Wei Zi was finally willing to accept himself, Er moved and hurriedly asked.
Waving his hand, Wei Zi smiled and said, "Don't be so aggressive first, it's not too late to listen to my conditions and then agree......"
Hearing Wei Zi say this, Er, who was still in love just now, immediately quieted down. He knew that he was a little too anxious, and his words were inevitably a little too big.
Therefore, after letting his feelings calm down a little, he saw Er looking at Wei Zi with his blue eyes, and at the same time said, "Dear Mr. Wei, please speak." ”
"I want you and me to partner to create a brand new clothing brand." In El's hopeful face, Wei Zi said with some shock.
Hearing Wei Zi say this, Elden was stunned on the spot, only to see him staring at Wei Zi in a daze, as if he had seen an alien. After a long time, I saw El take a long breath, and then said in a rather heavy voice: "You want to partner with me?" Dear Mr. Wei, I heard you right! It's not a fantasy, is it? Oh, my God! ”
"El, it's not a fantasy, it's been carefully thought out by me." Wei Zidao.
Seeing that Wei Zi's expression didn't seem to be joking, although Er's expression hadn't changed, Wei Zi's mention made his heart extremely uneasy.
"Dear Mr. Wei, do you think this mention of yours is feasible?" After thinking about it for a long time, Er said to Wei Zi
With this sentence alone, it can be seen that Er was moved by Wei Zi's mention. After all, Wei Zi's mention is too shocking and too desirable. You know, as a costume designer, everyone wants to make their clothes popular. …,
Moreover, El is slightly different from those ordinary costume designers. All along, in his heart, he has been following the example of his ancestors Bell, De and Givenchy. In the same way, in his heart, there is an ideal that no one knows, that is, to create a clothing that surpasses the Givenchy brand.
Originally, El pinned this ideal on the LVMH group. After all, LVMH is the best choice in terms of capital, market share and designers.
However, the time is not with me. Although El has worked hard, very hard, the reality has always broken his dreams again and again.
"Why not? You have the capital and the talent to design, why can't it work? Wei Zi said.
I thought that Wei Zi would say something earth-shattering, but I didn't expect Wei Zi to say this, Er who was a little energetic just now, immediately became excited, and at the same time secretly vigilant in his heart.
However, on the surface, El did not voice his doubts. I saw him look at Wei Zi with some puzzlement, and said, "Dear Mr. Wei, I wonder if you are mistaken, what capital can I have?" I'm just a regular fashion designer. ”
El suddenly became vigilant, how Wei Zi couldn't notice this. It's just that Wei Zi didn't care about this, only to see him smile slightly, and continued: "Mr. Er, we don't talk darkly, I still know some information about you." ”
As soon as Wei Zi said this, El's face suddenly became ugly, and he was almost about to run away. After all, although El does seem to be an ordinary fashion designer on the surface, and his mind is not in business, this is not to say that El is just a fool who doesn't know anything.
In fact, it was because of his cleverness and resourcefulness that El was able to survive in his own home and in the LVMH group, and to keep his stakes. It's a pity that his cleverness and wit are used in fashion designers. Otherwise, maybe the Givenchy family will rise again in his hands.
"Dear Mr. El, please don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions." Wei Zi still said calmly.
"Dear Mr. Wei, it is difficult for you to convince me when you say this." Eldau.
Habitually touching his nose, Wei Zi said: "I know that it is difficult to convince you when I say this, but please believe that I really have no malicious intentions, and please don't suspect that someone deliberately arranged it when I appeared." Actually, the reason why I'm here today is entirely because my friends and I came here to shop and met you. Not only that, but I also happened to know that someone was going to be unfavorable to you in Huaxia. ”
Crunch!
Hearing Wei Zi say this, Er, who was originally just a little frightened, sat on the edge of the chair without paying attention, but when he sat down completely, he actually sat on the ground.
"Mr. El, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as El's buttocks hit the ground, Mr. Li and others, who had just been kicked out by El because of their sudden intrusion into the office, pushed open the door and jumped into the office.
"Boy, you still have a face to sit here! Didn't you see that Mr. El was already injured? You get me out. ”
After Mr. Li and the others helped Er up, they looked at Wei Zi, who was still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, and immediately shouted.
"Dear Mr. Lai, what are you going to do? Mr. Wei is my teacher, please pay attention to your attitude. Although he couldn't understand what Mr. Li was saying, El saw that his face was not good, and immediately shouted loudly in French.
Like El, although Mr. Li couldn't understand what El said, he could guess that El was defending Wei Zi. …,
Thinking about what he was going to do, this Mr. Li pretended that he didn't understand Er's words, and still yelled at Wei Zi: "What are you still doing here?" Don't you see Mr. El getting angry? Fuck me off. ”
Regarding Mr. Li's clumsy appearance, Wei Zi saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart. This world! What a person has it!
"Wei, what is he talking about? Can you translate for me? Seeing that Mr. Li's attitude was still so bad, the beautiful female translator who had been following her all this time was no longer there, so she had to ask Wei Zi for help.
Seeing that El called himself from "respected Mr. Wei" to "Wei." Wei Zi knew that El had accepted herself. At that moment, I saw Wei Zi laughing a little arrogantly and uninhibitedly: "Er, can't you see clearly?" The people who want to be bad for you are the people around you. ”
El changed his address to Wei Zi with "Wei." Wei Zi also called him by his name.
"Wei, you sue me, are you worthy of my trust?" Hearing Wei Zi say this, Er said helplessly.
Knowing that Er was in a difficult state of stalemate in his heart at the moment, Wei Zi just smiled and said: "Er, trust is not something that is said with your mouth, you have to look at it with your heart." ”。 )
