Chapter 496: The Silk Chamber of Commerce's Calculations
Hearing the news that Armani clothing store was about to launch new clothes, Cai Donglai, the owner of the Silk Chamber of Commerce, accidentally knocked over a cup of tea, and was stunned for a long time without saying a word.
A few days after the Silk Chamber of Commerce died down, Cai Donglai, who was originally in a state of ignorance, gradually came back to his senses.
Not long ago, the two sides used tabloids to engage in a war of words, and it seemed that he had a rich silk chamber of commerce, and won over the Henan tabloid that ranked first in Luoyang to gain the upper hand in public opinion, but in fact, he took the opportunity to make the Armani clothing store and the Luodu tabloid famous and became the object of people's mutual discussion, and it became completely popular.
In particular, several revelations in the back of the press have greatly increased the popularity of Cui Wenqing and Zhe Zhao among the people, and some bad comments about them have also disappeared.
Knowing this, Cai Donglai realized that he was completely deceived by Cui Wenqing's thief and army, and became a tool for him to make himself and Armani clothing store popular.
It's ridiculous that he has always been complacent, thinking that he has gained the upper hand, and he is dissatisfied with his cousin's intervention.
It turned out that all of this was a strategy made by Cui Wenqing.
When Cai Donglai was so angry that his nostrils were smoking, Cui Wenqing contacted the Municipal Order Office again, borrowed the wall that was usually placed there and was useless, and even invited Chen Ningmo to whimsically paint a mural, which attracted people in the city to watch it at the same time, but also took the opportunity to show a new style of clothing called cheongsam, which made the whole Luoyang sensational.
Now that the Armani clothing store is about to open, I believe that Cui Wenqing will also use his current popularity to promote the new cheongsam, and will also take the opportunity to overpower the Silk Chamber of Commerce.
At the same time as the Armani clothing store is rising, the days when the Silk Chamber of Commerce monopolized the Luoyang cloth market are gone, and there may be a danger of overturning.
Thinking of this, Cai Donglai felt unspeakable sadness in his heart.
It's a pity that his cousin Cai Daogui has spoken first, otherwise how could he be so cowardly and let Cui Wenqing lay out calmly?
Just when he sighed, Cai Aotian hurriedly walked in with a blue face, opened his mouth and asked: "Fourth uncle, do you know that Armani clothing store is about to launch new clothes?" ”
"I know." Cai Donglai nodded with a heavy face and sighed, with a deep helplessness in his mouth.
Seeing that he seemed to be a little depressed, Cai Aotian suddenly became anxious, and said, "Fourth uncle, this Cui Wenqing is clearly trying to deal with our Silk Chamber of Commerce, how can you be indifferent here?" ”
Cai Donglai said with a wry smile: "What if you don't do this, your father asks us to be patient and not to provoke Cui Wenqing and Armani clothing store, I don't know if I can still listen to him?" ”
Hearing this, Cai Aotian's face was bruised, obviously hiding great anger, and after a long breath of turbidity, he said in a quiet tone: "Even so, we can't sit still like this!" ”
Cai Donglai sighed lightly: "Just now I have asked people to compare the wall paintings, and roughly painted the appearance of the new-style cheongsam, and handed it to Du Xiaoyue for reference, I only hope that Du Xiaoyue can see through the mystery and make a batch of new-style cheongsams for us, so as not to be robbed of the limelight by Cui Wenqing." ”
"That's a brilliant plan!" Cai Aotian clapped his hands with joy, thought about it and offered advice: "Fourth uncle, as the saying goes, there is no airtight wall in the world, we can also secretly send someone to the Armani clothing store to inquire about the news, and try to see if we can invite a few tailors from the Armani clothing store to come over." ”
Cai Donglai nodded and said, "You are right, Erlangjun, how about you please handle this matter?" ”
"Good!" Cai Aotian nodded and hurriedly walked away.
In the next few days, Cui Wenqing spent almost all of the rest of his time in the clothing store, commanding the battle.
Today, a row of blue brick houses behind the clothing store has been transformed into a garment factory, and the eight tailors from Fuzhou are busy cutting the new clothes needed for the Victoria's Secret baby catwalk, like a spinning top.
The cheongsam patterns required by the eighteen Victoria's Secret babies are all different, and the personal sizes are also different, so it takes a lot more time.
In the past few days, Sima Wei has often come to the clothing store to watch the clothing.
He also put forward a lot of insights on the cheongsam.
Cui Wenqing also made many improvements to the cheongsam design according to the suggestions, so that the cheongsam can better reflect the contemporary trend while not changing the original sample.
At the same time, Chang Wen also told Cui Wenqing that a stranger sneakily sneaked into the clothing store to investigate.
In this regard, Cui Wenqing was not surprised, after all, the movement on his side was so big, it would be very strange if the Silk Chamber of Commerce did nothing again.
Cai Donglai wanted to figure out the cheongsam, and it was common for him to send someone to investigate.
In view of this, Chang Wen also raised the concern that the tailor of the party might be poached by the Silk Chamber of Commerce with a high salary, and reminded Cui Wenqing that he had to guard against it.
Faced with this problem, Cui Wenqing smiled indifferently and said: "I made it very clear last time, our Armani clothing store is a brand, not a product, and what is really valuable is the brand name, not the cheongsam itself. ”
After saying this, Cui Wenqing thought for a while and said: "But before our clothing store opens and launches the cheongsam, the design method of the cheongsam cannot be exposed, fortunately, the tailors are all from Fuzhou, so let them eat and live in the clothing store during this time, and put an end to contact with outsiders." ”
Chang Wenwei and Cui Wenqing looked at the horse, and hurriedly nodded and took the order.
"How's it going?"
In the Silk Chamber of Commerce, Cai Donglai asked Cai Aotian, who had just arrived, with a solemn face, with a faint look of expectation on his face.
Cai Aotian sighed and said: "Cui Wenqing's guy guards the clothing store like an iron wall, our people can't get in at all, and they can't get in touch with the tailors inside, I'm afraid this plan won't work." After that, he asked with a look of hope, "I don't know what the situation is here for the fourth uncle?" ”
Cai Donglai said with a wry smile: "Xiao Yue took the cheongsam pattern and looked at it for two days, and he couldn't guess the specific size of the cut, but he had already made a rough one compared to the pattern of the cheongsam, and although the effect was not as good as the woman in the painting, it was not satisfactory." ”
Cai Aotian was silent for a while and asked, "Then I don't know what the fourth uncle wants to do?" ”
Cai Donglai replied: "As the saying goes, talk is better than nothing, we can only use the cheongsam cut by Xiaoyue as the style, and tell the tailors to cut a batch and sell it for trial sale, and then see the effect." ”
Cai Aotian understood that this was not a solution, so he could only nod in agreement.
