Chapter 80 Definition of Fashion (for further reading, recommended)
After finishing the monocrystalline copper, Wang Xu returned to the small courtyard with a bunch of books on materials recommended by Professor Bian.

Wang Xu was going to take a day off, but the sound of the ding ding ding ding decoration completely drove away his drowsiness, why did he forget that there was still this trouble.

With Wang Jinghua watching at the construction site, Wang Xu was too lazy to take care of the decoration.Putting things away casually, Wang Xu rode a big motorcycle to Wang Chao Clothing.

Alas, I was born to work hard, and I never have a day off.

Forget it, let's add a few more looks to Wang Chao today.

The small shop is very good, everything is in order, as if it is the same with or without Wang Xu.Wang Xu wandered around the shop like a guest for a while, and then was driven to the back by the annoying Tang Yun.

Recently, the tailor's shop has started to see more customers, especially after that big party.

Those customers who spoke Northeast and North China accents were really arrogant, and they spent thousands of dollars casually, and they were so high or low that they brought home a few well-matched sets.

And the ones who came were all men, they didn't pick at all, and they didn't know how to pick.Come, say hello to Tang Yun, after all, we met at the party, so we are familiar, exchange a few words of greetings, and exchange business cards.

Then it is to directly report the height and weight, let Tang Yun match two sets, pay the money, get the goods, and leave, simply and neatly, without delay.

Tang Yun recognized that they were all guests from the big party that day, mainly performers or equipment dealers.Don't look at their rustic clothes, but the waist is really horizontal.

These years, the income of the whole country is growing rapidly, and the supply of performances in various places is almost in short supply. Those who can attract singers from the imperial capital are all local talents. Just a commercial performance can earn thousands of dollars.

The commercial performance at the moment is quite conscientious. It can take two hours from beginning to end. Usually, there are three or five singers, a band, and a more famous one to put together a platter.

Basically, it depends on the strength of the merchants. The high ones charge one hundred and eighty thousand, the low ones charge three to fifty thousand, and the lower ones even charge three to five thousand.

Anyway, what price and what grade, if you dare to pay 80 yuan, these guys will dare to get Xiangjiang stars for you when they run the show.

Although the word coffee position is not called a coffee position now, it is from this time that it really has a golden meaning.

The show business relies entirely on connections to see who can find a more famous actor. If you can find Lao Cui, it's no problem to give you an extra [-] per show.

That's why Wang Xu's party can attract so many people to join him.

It seems to be an irrefutable truth that booming business drives entertainment.In the past two years, the economy has been on the rise, and there is even a feeling of frenzy. The land in Hainan is already beckoning to the people of the whole country.

This may be the first economic upsurge in the history of the country, and even the income of the common people has turned upside down.

Wang Xu remembered that during this period of time in his previous life, wages had to rise with the economy almost every year. Policy-based wage increases affected most of the population in the country who ate imperial food, and in turn affected the whole society.

From the standard salary of more than 90 graduates in the early 100s to 90 in the late [-]s, in less than ten years, the salary suddenly increased by one digit.

Going to sea to do business and going out to work have become the most heated topics of discussion in cities and villages respectively.

In the initial period of the 90s, everything was still in its infancy, and everything had just begun, but just this inception was enough to make Wang Xu, a traveler who experienced this era again, feel the surge of passion.

Just this germination has allowed the small tailor shop to receive huge dividends.This week's turnover began to increase rapidly. Last week, it was only more than 1, but on Sunday, the turnover was almost [-] more.

The three part-time girls who worked shifts on Sundays were crazy about it, and they easily got two hundred.Almost each of the three people received an extra sixty or seventy commissions.

By the way, the price of Wang Chao's clothes has increased by an average of 20%, but it can still maintain a steady growth in quantity.

The decision to increase the price was made by Tang Yun. On the day of the big party, she reported to Wang Xu and explained the cause and effect. Wang Xu agreed and promised to give her some new looks to support the scene.

It's not all because of being too greedy or something else, but because Tang Yun observed that the price of imported clothing has increased, so she plans to follow suit. If she doesn't increase, it seems that the price has dropped.

Wang Xu listened to Tang Yun's report at that time, and simply agreed to the price increase. Following the price increase of foreign brands is the way to establish a brand. Wang Xu does not intend to make it a mass brand, so the price increase has become inevitable.

-

Wang Xu made a cup of tea in the design room in the backyard, and leisurely drew new clothing styles. This time, he began to try to add some of his own understanding, instead of simply copying.

After making so many sets of clothes, Wang Xu also began to have his own feeling for fashion.Fashion is a circle, Wang Xu forgot which celebrity said it.

But really, things that are popular now will reincarnate again in a few decades, but every time, there will be various differences.

I remember that there was a movie called "The Devil Wears Prada" in my previous life, and there was a classic line in it.

In a busy office, Meryl Streep's style queen explains fashion to Anne Hathaway's young fashion editor.

Wang Xu can't remember the original lines, but the meaning is still fresh in his memory.

Its content is roughly that, do you think fashion has nothing to do with you? You randomly chose a sky blue coat from your wardrobe to show that you don't care about fashion.

But what you choose is not actually a dress, but this blue color.

But did you know that a few years ago, a certain famous designer named Oscar de la Renta created an evening collection in this color.

And Yves Saint Laurent also showed a military jacket in this color in another clothing conference.

As a result, this color was noticed by more designers, and then it appeared in more designer's collections.

Then through the proliferation of shopping malls, more and more designers have seen it and integrated it into their own designs.And then spread further, this is the origin of popular color.

And you, rookie, bought this trendy blue dress off the shelf of some clearance sale.

You see, you want not to be influenced by fashion, and the blue you choose at will is actually a decision made by fashion designers several years ago, and countless people have contributed to your choice.

This is the meaning of fashion, which is a defined right, which can subtly affect countless people.

From a hundred years ago until now, New York has been competing with Europe for the title of fashion capital.

Countless romantic heroes and countless wealth and capital have become the stepping stones of this competition.What they are fighting for is the right to speak, the right to define, the right to describe and comment on beauty and the world.

This is the final battle for the rise of the ugly country that started from World War I, and it is also the last bastion of Europe. Without this, Europe will be completely reduced to the foil of the ugly country.

Therefore, even if Wang Xu doesn't like those fashion figures any more, he still has to respect them. It can be said that they have reserved the last trace of decency for the whole of Europe.
