Mixed In the United States As a Local Tyrant

  Chapter 180 Advanced Customization

  When Joanna is also free, they will fly to New York on a special plane.

  Private jets come and go freely, fast and comfortable. After spending a few hours chatting, we landed at the airport smoothly. We had already reserved cars in advance. We divided into two teams and drove to the hotel in Manhattan. Since it is to join in the fun, it must be the most lively area.

  Manhattan is undoubtedly the most prosperous center in New York, and the hotel is located around Central Park, where you can experience the unique scenery of dense New York. One side is full of high-rise buildings, and the other side is flat and open. The fusion of the two extreme scenery is extremely eye-catching and fits the theme of the Chinese New Year.

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

  So it is also a good choice to come to New York to celebrate the Spring Festival. The New Year is very strong. Chinatown in Manhattan is the most lively. There are red lanterns hanging high on both sides of a street, and there are various parades to celebrate. Setting off firecrackers and burning fireworks are indispensable. The old, middle-aged, old and beautiful put on traditional costumes and walked around the streets lively.

  The Americans are also very interesting. 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—colored lights on the wall surface, red mixed with gold, very traditional. Fifth Avenue also has strong Chinese elements.

  Brother-in-law bought a Chinese newspaper at random, and even gave a red envelope.

  The little girl happily opened the red envelope, but it turned out to be empty... The girl in festive red pouts, holding the empty red envelope with an unhappy expression on her face.

In the end, An Feng took the bear kids to watch the firecrackers. In addition to a group of Chinese, there were also some foreigners who were curious about traditional culture. They also specially changed into Tang suits, and they handed over to everyone. I don’t know where they learned , looks good, and the Chinese brothers also responded enthusiastically.

  My sister looked around and said, "I feel that this year is more interesting than those 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 taste of the New Year is not as strong as when I was a child. It is still as exciting as before. Every house is decorated with lanterns, lanterns and lion dances. The most anticipated programs for the children are either setting off firecrackers or getting red envelopes. Every moment counts."

  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. Every February, there will be an autumn and winter fashion week of this year, which lasts for seven or eight days to showcase the trend concepts of brands from all walks of life. Joanna doesn't blindly pursue fashion, but she likes one link: haute couture gowns. Different from ordinary fashion, it is this year's autumn and winter fashion released by luxury brands such as Chanel, Dior, and Armani.

  Even noble ladies, their beautiful dresses for various occasions are based on ideas here, or they are tailor-made, and they are nothing more than hiring these famous designers. As Joanna, who often needs to accompany An Feng to attend various high-level social occasions, the demand for dresses is very high.

The most expensive thing about a dress is the creativity, which usually accounts for 90% of the value, ranging from tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands. In principle, ladies only wear it once, and the splendor will not be repeated. in this way. Joanna also pursues uniqueness, and the requirements here are even higher.

  An Feng put down the newspaper, looked at Joanna who was taking off 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 bumping into other people's shirts or shoes the most."

  An Feng shrugged: "It is a brand after all, and it will be mass-produced. How about hiring a few designers to design the most unique dresses for you?"

  Joanna wiped her face with a soft towel, and said, "But the top ones don't just sell casually, that is, the designers of these brands can make good works."

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

  Joanna turned around and said, "Just like the suit I customized for you at One Savile Row last time, although there are also mass-produced ones, it is definitely unique."

  Listening to the "fashionista" explaining 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 came up and jumped on him with a smile.

  An Feng hugged the cat and fell on the bed and said, "Isn't that? It's so dignified!"

  Joanna looked at him: "Do you want to put a few diamonds on me to be happy?"

   "Gold can also be considered." An Feng said seriously.

   "Be serious! I'm serious, you care about me beyond the limit, but I can't give you the same." She pouted.

  An Feng hugged her tightly: "But I don't think love can be measured by equivalent value."

  Joanna said: "I know my mouth is sweet."

  An Feng stroked her smooth back gently, and smiled: "Not sweet, why do you like to kiss me?"

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

   "Yes." An Feng nodded.

  …

  The next afternoon, An Feng and Joanna attended a Versace (Versace) press conference in formal attire. Both haute couture and ready-to-wear are skipped, and as high-end people, they only attend couture gown launches. The person who invited them was a wealthy businessman they met at the previous reception. He heard that he had a shareholding, so the couple sat in the front row and the most conspicuous position over all the celebrities and big names.

   And behind them are said to be big names.

  Where in life is not pretending... Before the official seat, like other celebrities, join hands to appear in front of the poster and pose for a few poses. Joanna asked to be simple, and just stood with An Feng's arm, the camera clicked, and she left before she had time to capture more of her amazement.

   After coming in low-key, I met the wealthy businessman An Feng knew, shook hands with him, and chatted for a while. The attitude of the other party was very enthusiastic. Obviously, An Feng was the level he wanted to get in touch with, so he was very attentive, and treated them as high-level VIPs, and personally invited them to sit at the seat with their name on it.

  There are indeed a lot of celebrities around, as well as some wealthy daughters.

But An Feng's mentality is calm. Whether it's a big-name star, a political celebrity, or a family consortium, he has seen it all, so it's not surprising. What's more, he is so rich and has such a deep background. There was a movie star he liked.

  Shortly after An Feng was seated, the lights on the scene dimmed, and the highlights were concentrated on the catwalk. There was a soft music playing, and then a tall, expressionless supermodel wearing various dresses appeared. With this height and high heels, it is indeed a standard hanger, so you can wear it casually.

An Feng's focus is on various female models. This press conference is interesting. Most of the custom-made dresses are very luxurious, highlighting the advantages of women's bodies. Joanna looks at all kinds of beautiful dresses and thinks what she should change to look better. …in the end there is something to be gained for both men and women.

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

  An Feng knew the meaning: "Take it later."

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

After appreciating these two haute couture releases, which can be called a visual feast, An Feng has learned a lot: Ladies' clothes are very profitable, and a few pieces of fabric can be sought after casually; designers sometimes make funny comparisons, and those dresses If you don't change it, one-third of them don't believe that someone dares to wear it.

   But the overall is still very good.

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

  He admitted that half of the starting point is Joanna, and the dress must not be different, so it must be unique, but there are very few designs of this one, and it is usually sold out. What should I do? The most direct way is to buy all the brands and let the designers design them specifically for the wife of the boss.

  Buy it, let me see if you dare to repeat it?

  The other half... is the factor of spending money. It is obviously not a good idea to keep too much money in the bank and wait for depreciation-now you are poor, but you will still have it in the future. Although he also has investment projects, but in the case of his own development, the cost consumption is very small. Unlike other high-tech companies, technology research and development are dedicated to burning money... so the distributed profits can be used for other things. The luxury industry has always been worthwhile. investment.

  Joanna shook her head and said, "Luxury brands are very valuable, like Chanel, which is worth 5 billion. Even if you want to buy it, they may not necessarily sell it."

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

  Joanna found his statement unassailable.

   I'm afraid he is one of the very few in the world—even the rich and royal families in the Middle East dare not say that they spend billions of dollars, and the purpose of buying a luxury brand is to design clothes for their wives.
