142 Create a brand
In October, the contract between Li Manjun and Zhong Xueli was signed.
In the middle, Mrs. Qiu sent 10,000 yuan, accounting for 3% of the shares.
After Wen Yufeng learned that Zhong Xueli had raised the money, the 2,000 yuan did not come again, that is to say, the last participants in this studio were only Li Manjun and Mrs. Qiu.
After the first payment arrived, Zhong Xueli began to prepare, store location, raw material purchase, staff recruitment and other things, all of which Zhong Xueli handled by herself, and Li Manjun was only a hands-off shopkeeper.
She always felt that the layman could not interfere with the insider, otherwise it would make something that was going well go bad.
Only when Zhong Xueli took the initiative to ask for advice, Li Manjun would make some inconsequential choices.
For example, the brand name, the two and Mrs. Qiu discussed it for several days, and the Xinhua dictionary was about to be rotten, but the final decision was an English name - Sherry.
With the same pronunciation as Shirley's name and the French word for "dear", Shirley Zhong graduated from France, and this brand name has a different meaning for her.
"I hope that every Sherry customer can feel the tenderness and beauty of this brand. β
This is a brand mainly for women, and both Li Manjun and Mrs. Qiu felt very romantic, so they unanimously approved to use it as a brand name and store name.
After knowing the brand name chosen by Li Manjun and others, Wen Yufeng directly called her SHY.
Li Manjun had a flash of inspiration in his mind, "Just use the three capital letters of SHY as the brand symbol, what do you think?" β
Mrs. Qiu couldn't imagine it, she looked confused, Zhong Xueli was a man of action, and immediately took out a pen and paper to draw a rectangular brand logo on the draft with a combination of three letters.
Handed it to Li Manjun and Mrs. Qiu to see, Mrs. Qiu only thought it was good, Li Manjun took it and looked at it, and laughed, "This is a sign that belongs to us alone." β
Zhong Xueli said with a smile: "I am already working on our first batch of designs, and when we wait until the beginning of spring next year, we will learn from other people's foreign brands to also do a press conference to make SHY famous." β
When it comes to the future, Zhong Xueli is full of energy, Mrs. Qiu has never seen her in such a sober state, and her heart is slightly touched.
"I'm fine with staying at home anyway, if I don't dislike it, how about I give you a hand?" Mrs. Qiu suddenly asked shyly.
I don't know why she felt embarrassed, Zhong Xueli stretched out her hand crisply, "Ms. Qiu, thank you for coming, I really need a help!" β
Mrs. Qiu looked at Li Manjun in surprise, Li Manjun nodded at her, touched her belly bigger than last month, and jokingly said:
"I'm a pregnant woman who won't trouble you, and when I unload the goods, I can say hello at any time if I need to."
Both of them understood her current physical condition and told her to leave it alone and wait to see the results with peace of mind.
"I just don't know if it's a boy or a girl, how about I design a parent-child outfit for the baby and you when the time comes?" Zhong Xueli said with a smile.
The concept of parent-child clothing is more popular abroad, but there has never been such a gimmick in China, and she wants to try the parent-child market.
Li Manjun nodded in surprise, "How could I refuse to make it by Designer Zhong, but the hospital didn't say whether it was male or female, and I don't know now." β
Mrs. Qiu reached out and touched Li Manjun's round belly, and said with a smile: "I heard them say that those with round bellies are generally boys. β
Li Manjun stroked his stomach and said suspiciously: "I always dreamed of a cute little girl a few nights ago, could it be that it hints to me that it is actually a small padded jacket?" β
Zhong Xueli does not engage in superstition, "Both men and women are the same, children look similar when they are young, I will make a good example first, and then make some subtle changes according to gender." β
Mrs. Qiu was a little convinced, and said seriously: "It's very smart to dream, maybe it's really a girl." β
The three of them looked at each other and laughed.
The studio is located in the most prosperous commercial center of Rongcheng, which is Zhong Xueli's personal shop, and her parents prepared for her to marry.
There is no rent, and the pressure of opening a store is much less than that of other stores, so that Zhong Xueli has enough confidence and time to prepare slowly.
Although it is said that the studio will be unveiled next spring, as soon as the decoration of the store is completed, Zhong Xueli has already begun to receive orders.
Mrs. Qiu called all the female members of her former drama troupe over, and this kind of private and intimate service was very eye-catching.
The decoration of the store was designed by Zhong Xueli, her aesthetic is really advanced, but not too much, everything is just right.
The store does not have an open door, only a tall retro door is left to invite customers in, and the rest is made into a glass window, and the freshly made ready-to-wear model stands in the window, which is very eye-catching.
The ladies passing by in front of the studio can't help but stop and look at the large glass surface reflecting the figures of people, and the pretty girls will follow the reflection of the shadows and merge their bodies into the models.
In this way, you will be able to see what you will look like when you wear this beautiful ready-to-wear.
The studio is pure white, which can match all shades of color, because Li Manjun once mentioned the display of different series of clothing in the four seasons, Zhong Xueli immediately realized her point, and specially designed a pure white background color in the decoration, which is convenient for changing the seasonal style at any time.
From the outside, the winter dΓ©cor resembles an ice-blue crystal palace, and the beautiful ready-to-wear garments stand in the snow and ice.
Christmas in Banyan City has not yet risen, and only appears in KFC or foreign trade companies in department stores.
Zhong Xueli and Li Manjun discussed that they planned to do a Christmas theme this Christmas, win the first batch of orders, and warm up for the spring exhibition next year.
Marketing Zhong Xueli is obviously not as good as Li Manjun, not to mention that Li Manjun has already experienced various marketing methods of merchants in his previous life, and has rich reserves.
After entering December, Li Manjun felt that his legs were visibly swollen.
She didn't even dare to weigh herself now, anyway, that data must not be what she particularly wanted to see.
During a recent prenatal checkup, the doctor said that her fetal position was not correct, which frightened Li Manjun and his wife.
Fortunately, the doctor quickly said: "There are still six or seven weeks before the due date, and during this time you try to sleep on your left side, and you may flip back on your own." β
"By the way, have you figured out whether you want to have a vaginal birth or a caesarean section?" Without waiting for the pregnant woman to answer, she immediately suggested: "Your situation is not bad, it is recommended to have a smooth delivery." β
"I'll think again." Li Manjun didn't want to admit it, she was actually a little afraid.
Turning his head to look at Zhao Yong behind him, he gently pinched her shoulder, and the warmth in his palm seeped into his heart through his clothes, and Li Manjun felt a little more at ease.
