Chapter 848 The man who guides the textile industry
After nine o'clock, a long line was lined up at the entrance of Wanti Pavilion.
Several ticket check windows that are open at the same time are not enough.
Gao Peng, the deputy general in charge of ticket sales, came to report to Wang Lin: "Mr. Wang, all the tickets for the first game have been sold out!"
Wang Lin said in shock: "All 18,000 tickets were sold out?"
Gao Peng smiled and said, "There are still many enthusiastic citizens waiting outside to watch the second catwalk!"
"Haha! OK! The tickets that cost 20 yuan per ticket can be sold out! It seems that our people in Shanghai are very enthusiastic about watching models show off!" Wang Lin smiled happily.
Tickets for 20 yuan each, 18,000 seats!
The income from selling tickets alone was as high as RMB 360,000 in one game.
Wang Lin held such a grand fashion show not just to make this little ticket money.
His purpose is to drive the great development of the domestic clothing and fabric industries through such a fashion show, so that our country's textile industry can reorganize its mountains and rivers and create new glory!
If there is customer flow, it will definitely bring sales.
More than 10,000 real audiences are of course far more useful than the ones arranged by themselves.
These viewers are willing to spend 20 yuan tickets to watch the fashion show, and they are very likely to spend money to buy clothes and fabrics.
Over the past decade of reform and opening up, people's income has increased significantly, and a large number of people who have become rich first have emerged. The citizens' ideas have also changed greatly. Among them, the thoughts of the people in Shencheng are relatively open, which is also the reason why the first model team in China can appear in Shencheng.
This kind of large-scale catwalk is rare. Even in Shencheng, a large-scale model catwalk that is open to the whole society is hard to come by. Aixu Group's publicity work before the New Year has been done, and the overwhelming advertisements have long made the people of Shencheng year-old fascinated by this catwalk.
Especially this show is unique, not only domestic fashion brands participated, but also many foreign brands came to the show.
Some people come in to buy tickets not to see the beauty, but to observe and learn, such as designers, photographers, clothing brands, dealers, clothing related private business owners, clothing workshop owners, and college students majoring in design. These people come to participate with the purpose of learning, and look forward to learning cutting-edge fashion knowledge and design concepts in this "international show".
The most famous fashion week in the world is Paris Fashion Week, which originated in 1910 and is hosted by the French Fashion Association. The French Fashion Association was established at the end of the 19th century. The association's highest purpose is to build Paris as the world's fashion capital to rock solid. They help new designers enter the industry, organize and coordinate the Paris Fashion Week schedule, so as to ensure that buyers and fashion journalists try their best to watch every show.
A perfect show is more about firmness and accurate transmission of the brand image. How many clothing orders can be received are small, and the sales of perfumes, cosmetics, accessories, and relatively cheap basic models are the real task of this show.
The characteristics of major international fashion weeks are also different.
The fashion week in Milan and London is quite conservative. They prefer local designs and do not have high acceptance of foreign designers, which still makes these outsiders feel strong. The business atmosphere of New York Fashion Week is too strong. Only Paris is truly absorbing fashion elites from all over the world.
Almost every one of the temple-level fashion designers from the East, Britain and Belgium has entered the world's vision through Paris.
New York shows business, Milan shows skills, London shows courage, Paris only, showing dreams.
The Shanghai Love Show Fashion Week created by Wang Lin is more inclusive. He not only displays oriental elements of clothing design, but also absorbs clothing brands from all over the world.
The sea embraces all rivers and shows its vastness even more.
Wang Linzheng had a happy conversation with the vice presidents, and he suddenly saw a beautiful figure.
Li Jiaxin is here!
Since she entered the venue, she has been looking for Wang Lin. After seeing him, she smiled at him, waved her hand, and walked over slowly.
"Hello, Mr. Wang." Li Jiaxin's elegant tone was a little resentful.
"Mr. Li, welcome!" In front of everyone, Wang Lin could not act too much and shook hands with Li Jiaxin.
Li Jiaxin was following a few men and women, and it seemed that she was her friends.
"Mr. Wang, let me introduce you to you. These people are all fashion designers from Xiangjiang. They all want to come and have a look after Aixi Fashion Week." Li Jiaxin introduced her friend to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin smiled and said, "Everyone is welcome, please give me some advice."
A handsome man in weird clothes and long hair, if it weren't for his beard, he would have thought he was an ordinary woman at first glance.
When Li Jiaxin introduced him, she said that his name was David, and she was an internationally renowned designer.
Although Wang Lin has been in this industry for many years, he knows little about famous international designers. This industry is very profound, so there are so many designers? Therefore, it is normal not to know the other party.
David's favorite move is to twist orchid fingers, just like the movements he did during opera, but the movements he made were not standard and not as good as the drama actors.
"Oh, I looked at the list of exhibitors and was disappointed!" David said coquettishly, "I heard that you made such a good publicity. It was really a fashion event for international brands. What happened? No big brand came. Chanel, Dior, and Armani were the real big brands! None of them came to participate."
Gu Yan
His voice was too delicate and crisp, and it was an overly artificial sissy, which made people get goose bumps all over his body!
David's orchid finger gently stroked his chin: "Oh, I should have thought of what good fashion week can be in the mainland? Not to mention the mainland, even the entire Asian fashion week is not high-end. Even Tokyo Fashion Week cannot be compared with the four major fashion weeks of Paris, Milan, London and New York."
Wang Lin said lightly: "Mr. David, I do not deny the grandeur of Western Fashion Week. Many of their design styles and Western elements are indeed worth learning from, but we don't have to underestimate ourselves. Oriental clothing design also has traditional, elegant and tender beauty."
David looked at Wang Lin: "You are a businessman, do you still understand the beauty of clothing design?"
Wang Lin said: "A little understanding is. In modern oriental fashion, the fabrics are mainly made of natural materials such as cotton, linen, silk, silk, and wool. Combined with some foreign fabrics, and the designer's novel design, the layout engineer carefully cuts, uses piping, collide, hand embroidery, machine embroidery, beading, hand-painting, plate decoration and other traditional and modern craftsmanship, combined with advanced production equipment and exquisite workmanship, reflects the intersection between rich oriental colors and fashionable Western elements. It is suitable for all women to go to work and attend banquets or social activities, reflecting the slim charm of women, and the tradition reflects elegance, fashion, and personality and nobility."
He talks freely, and he always has something to say.
David was disdainful when he heard this: "Does there be traditional clothing in the East? Don't modern people wear Western clothing?"
Wang Lin said: "Mr. David, you may have lived in Western countries for many years and lack research on oriental elements. I won't say much about our Hanfu, even the most traditional cheongsams, which are very fashionable when worn by modern people. Like me, the Chinese Zhongshan suit is not worse than a suit. In this cold winter, wearing a suit and a tie is indeed very chic, but when you are old, you will inevitably catch a cold on your chest."
"Puchi!" Li Wenjuan smiled sweetly from the side.
David was run by Wang Lin and rolled his eyes: "It sounds nice! I don't believe that you can create new ideas in this fashion week. I have visited your Aixu Group's store in Xiangjiang. The design can only be said to be average and there is no excellence!"
Wang Lin said: "The clothing at Paris Fashion Week is strange and brilliant, but how many women dare to wear such clothes on the street? How many women wear such clothes to work or do housework? The original meaning of human beings invented is to defend against the invasion of nature, plus the function of ugliness and dress up. The history of clothing development is constantly evolving. The evolution and differences between Chinese and Western clothing, from Fuxi's transformation of silk into spikes, the ancient Egyptians used linen fabric to make aprons, and the Sumerians used wool fabric to wrap around the human body, forming clothing, which seemed to suggest the huge style differences between Chinese and Western clothing."
Li Wenjuan smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, our ancestors invented such high-end fabrics as silk? But Westerners are still using linen?"
Wang Lin said: "That's right, so from the beginning, our country's clothing has been more advanced than Westerners."
David was stunned, blinked and said, "What's the use of discussing such ancient costumes? We live in the present, of course, more than the current costumes."
Wang Lin said: "You advocate Western-style clothing design, which is not wrong, but I insist on thinking that the nation is the world. Modern society is a diverse society and a society with ethnic melting. I have also watched the four major fashion weeks in the West. Many of their designers also like to use our Chinese elements as design materials. The 5,000-year history of civilization has nurtured a unique Chinese culture. Chinese traditional clothing has a profound cultural heritage. When Eastern culture and Western culture meet, traditional Chinese clothing
The integration of clothing and Western clothing systems makes the clothing industry pay more attention to the ancient cultural essence of the East, and also makes the oriental complex on the clothing stage flicker. Western modern clothing often perfectly combines the styles, parts, fabric characteristics, patterns and various small elements in traditional Chinese clothing, which also makes our great national essence blow a long Chinese style on the fashion stage. The distant oriental culture no longer represents only traditions and national qualities, but it quickly becomes a fashion that is popular internationally."
David sneered: "Is there any? Give me an example to illustrate what Chinese elements do Western clothing use?"
Wang Lin said: "That's too many. For example, using Chinese traditional flower and bird paintings with bright colors as clothing patterns, using Chinese calligraphy and text as patterns, and embroidered Chinese peony embroidery patterns. In addition, the use of cheongsam stand collars and oblique open collars makes the clothing simple and fashionable. Blue and white porcelain, as an important part of Chinese elements, represents the euphemism and charm of Chinese people. In addition, there are side slits, buttons, piping, patterns, tassels, silk fabric brocade embroidery, Chinese knots, national Peking Opera facial makeup, straw hats, jackets, vests, bellybands, etc., too many. If Mr. David can't see which Chinese elements are, I can give you a special guide at the next Paris Fashion Week!"
He paused a little and said calmly and proudly: "The use of Chinese elements is common in the Western clothing design industry. Since France
David was dumbfounded.
But Li Jiaxin's eyes emitted a light. She looked at the man in front of her who was full of energy and guided the textile industry. He was so perfect and passionate! He was so outstanding and charming!
Even if you talk to someone like David who claims to be a famous international designer, you can speak golden sentences, show the truth, reason, and suppress their limelight!
Wang Lin's image instantly became taller in everyone's eyes!
David held his chest with his hands and looked at Wang Lin with a cold face but unconvinced look. However, he was speechless and could not say anything contemptuous. He could only sneer: "It sounds so nice! I just don't know if your costume design can also brighten our eyes?"
Wang Lin said: "The first fashion show at the opening ceremony was the brand show of our Aixiu Group. Please give me some advice. Our clothing design combines a large number of oriental elements. If Mr. David has any questions about Chinese elements, please ask me, and I will be happy to answer it for you."
David snorted coldly, his face still full of disdain.
Li Wenjuan stretched out her hand and asked Wang Lin to look at her watch: "Brother-in-law, it's almost time to start."
Wang Lin nodded and said to Li Jiaxin: "Miss Li, please come to the table first! Our opening ceremony will begin soon!"
Li Jiaxin had too many things to say to Wang Lin, but she knew that it was not the time to speak, so she responded, stepped forward, and whispered: "520."
This is a simple number, but it has profound meanings.
Because of the popularity of bb machines, 520 has become a homonym of I love you.
On the other hand, 520 is also the room number of Li Jiaxin’s stay in Huating Hotel.
Wang Lin nodded and said he knew.
Li Jiaxin, David and others turned around and left.
Zhou Boqiang shook his head gently and said, "A leaf falls and you will know the autumn is cool. Mr. Wang, it seems that Westerners are not optimistic about our fashion show. This is also the reason why they did not place an order."
Wang Lin's face became extremely serious. He said heavily: "Mr. Zhou, my country's clothing design has just started not long ago, but we have a rich cultural heritage and a textile embroidery civilization of thousands of years. I believe that we will definitely lead Chinese clothing to the world! Our Love Show Fashion Week will start from today, become the fifth largest fashion week in the world, and become the signature show leading oriental fashion! Through this show, we will show the charm of Chinese clothing to the world and drive the sales of our textile group!"
Zhou Boqiang said: "Yes, sales, making money, and developing are the hard truths."
