Mulberry's brand is not considered top-notch internationally, but it is the top leather goods brand in England. The most innovative and avant-garde high-end leather goods there are the only designated brands by Buckingham Palace.
Its low-key luxury is also due to this reason that it has not been promoted and marketed internationally. Its quality is even higher than that of some famous luxury goods.
The reason why I chose to go there today is because Liu Qingshan has a new performance plan to participate in the Song Festival in the near future, and needs to be customized in advance to ensure that he can wear it on that day.
That building is located in Gangnam District, the most prosperous business district in Seoul, and next to it is the most expensive residential area in the area. Liu Qingshan bought an apartment here, and it was Ma Baili's company executives who helped find it.
This person's name is Li Minzhen, a pure Han nationality, but her assistant to the president is an Englishman named Jones, who is also a woman.
Jones received the call and waited downstairs early. When he met, he gave Jin Xishan a firm hug.
She and Li Minzhen had already met at the Kyoto Fashion Conference where Jin Xishan accepted the endorsement contract, and they had met again when Liu Qingshan was recording the show.
"Our Director Li has told you to take a look at the boutique display cabinets on the first floor before you go up. Especially the men's clothing that Mr. Liu needs is the most popular style in England at the moment!"
This was the first time Liu Qingshan saw the exhibit counter on the first floor. It was not for sale to the public, but was a display prepared for dealers at all levels.
But Li Minzhen's intention was exposed as soon as he opened his mouth: "Is this a strategy adopted by your Director Li to save trouble?"
The clothes he currently wears are all designed by himself. After getting the super star maker, the first upgrade reward he received was the skill book on clothing design. He can design clothes that best suit his image. .
He had always made custom designs at the Kyoto branch before, but this was his first time working with the Hanguo branch. It was understandable that the design drawings he produced were mistrusted by more professionals.
Jones laughed loudly, and his personality was a bit frank and exaggerated like Europeans and Americans: "Mr. Liu guessed wrong this time. Director Li still attaches great importance to the drawings you brought out. Please come here first because you want to invite When you look at other products, there are suitable ones. For example, watches, glasses, ties and other small things!”
Mulberry's main business is leather goods, but that does not mean that it also produces other products, such as suits, dresses, etc. It has direct access to Buckingham Palace. If it is not sold to the public, it does not necessarily mean that it is incompetent.
So the first thing Liu Qingshan saw after arriving was a pair of transparent frameless extra-large polygonal flat glasses with a faint orange light curtain on the mirror surface.
He walked over quickly, picked it up and put it on his face.
"I bought it. Mr. Liu really knows how to choose. This pair of glasses is the latest model of our company. It has just been designed. This is the only finished product. The frame is made of carbon fiber with the reputation of 'black gold'. It has It has the characteristics of ultra-light, ultra-strong, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, high modulus, environmentally friendly, and skin-friendly; the mirror uses an ultra-thin aspherical dual-effect protective crystal lens, and it is coated!”
Jones's tone was as exaggerated as ever, but the quality of the glasses was immediately obvious to a layman.
Jones continued: "It's just that when Mr. Liu wears it, he'd better remove the beard on his face, so that he can better reflect his gentlemanly demeanor."
Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "I grew the beard specially for the next movie, but I can't sacrifice it for a pair of glasses! And I need it not for daily wear, but to match a performance. That song needs A look similar to that of a polite scum!”
Jones's bold laughter remained: "We in the West call the genteel scum yuppies. It evolved from yuppies. It will definitely become the style pursued by more and more urban men. I didn't expect Mr. Liu to know this too, because it is similar to The costumes have just become popular in our area!”
Jin Xishan had no idea about the form of the song Liu Qingshan was going to sing, but he was also surprised that he chose such a pair of glasses: "I didn't expect that you look very special when you wear glasses, you have a naughty little bad attitude, but It’s true that as Jones said, it would be more appropriate to remove the beard!”
Jones immediately added: "My suggestion is that Mr. Liu shave his beard. Today's makeup technology does not require the hard work of growing a beard and hair. Your thinking on this is putting the cart before the horse!"
"Hey, you actually know this idiom with oriental meaning?"
"Put the cart before the horse, we have it hundreds of years ago in English, right?"
Jin Xishan also advised, "I agree with this, and I prefer you without a beard!"
Liu Qingshan thought for a moment, still hesitating, "I stayed for more than three months for it!"
"Then have you ever thought about it. The first time you came to our house, you looked old and mature. My family will not be biased, but the neighbors just make irresponsible remarks!"
Thinking about it, Liu Qingshan had no choice but to nod, "Then hang up. Although I don't care what your neighbors say, I still value your family's face!"
Jin Xishan smiled happily. There was a reason for her happiness. It was not that Liu Qingshan agreed to her suggestion, but that he agreed in front of outsiders.
Nowadays, a small part of the public is saying that she has surpassed the other party, so Jin Xishan is most happy to be seen as Liu Qingshan obeys her words.
Next, she helped her man choose some shirts, ties and other things. Only the watch was Liu Qingshan's favorite. He put it on and refused to take it off.
The selected products were all valuable, but for some unknown reason, Jones actually said they would be given away free of charge, which attracted Liu Qingshan's attention.
But he never said it out loud until he met Li Minzhen, and then he asked the doubts in his heart.
Li Minzhen is less than forty years old, but has nearly thirty years of experience in Europe. She obviously grew up there since she was a child.
Her speaking style is also closer to the Western style, which is full of exclamations: "Mr. Liu is now an international star. Some of our products are not well-known, but it is up to Mr. Liu to help them increase their reputation. Oh my God, obviously It’s a very good deal!”
Liu Qingshan asked strangely: "As far as I know, isn't Mulberry's brand strategy low-key luxury?"
"That was in the past. According to Her Majesty the Queen, Mulberry has not been able to find the most suitable male brand endorser so far. It can't recruit a nobleman from the royal family to support the brand, right?"
"So, when Her Majesty the Queen gave me this brand of clothing at the beginning, she had the intention of me being the spokesperson in the future?"
"I'm just a businessman, and I don't dare to speculate on our Queen's back! Besides, it would be disrespectful to judge the Queen's thoughts based on a businessman's ideas. Please forgive me for not speaking on this issue!"
"But you only gave me the product and no corresponding endorsement fee. Are you thinking of something good?"
"This is an issue that we need to discuss in depth next, but since the global endorsement crown has been hung on Ms. Jin's head, we are considering how to change to a more novel way of cooperation!"
"Haha, I understand. In fact, you want me to use family assistance to help Sister Xishan carry out her endorsement work more effectively. These words are a bit too straightforward. Director Li won't blame me, right?"
"How could it be! How could it be!" Although Li Minzhen firmly denied it, the unnoticeable embarrassment flashed across her face.
Liu Qingshan laughed secretly in his heart, knowing that after the beating, enough was enough, and he had to give them a little sweetness.
"As long as we sign the contract next time and increase Sister Xishan's endorsement fee appropriately, I won't mind helping you endorse it for free. Our requirements are not high, right?"
Li Minzhen was overjoyed, "It's not high. I didn't expect Mr. Liu to be so generous! And we can guarantee in advance that as long as it is customized for all the clothes you need, no fees will be charged in the future. Ms. Jin's endorsement fee will also be based on the original Twice the improvement!”
"Well, that's good. I have a good relationship with the British royal family. I will help as much as I can. Don't forget that I provided David's business free of charge. Even those Chinese teachers were my connections with my own money! Okay, take me to see those customized clothes!"
Jin Xishan smiled and said: "We have to rush to my house after noon, and the time is really tight!"
Li Minzhen had a satisfied smile on her face: "I understand, I understand, this is the first time that my future son-in-law has come to visit! Please wait a moment, I will ask someone to bring those ready-made clothes right away!"
Liu Qingshan ordered three sets of clothes here through Jin Xishan, including two suits and a three-piece suit with a long leather jacket.
Especially those two suits, which were completely cut according to Liu Qingshan's design and were different from any uniform styles that are currently popular.
But when a row of clothes racks with rollers was pushed in, there were more than a dozen sets on display. They were obviously specially prepared to obtain Liu Qingshan's free endorsement today.
There are five sets of leather clothing alone, and each set is top-notch equipped, including suitable watches, belts, shoes, jeans, etc.
Of course, the brand LOGO on each piece is also very conspicuous. Although it is not too eye-catching, the places where it should be are marked.
For example, a suit jacket that is not customized by Liu Qingshan has a vertical row of bright diamond Mulberry LOGO on the back, located below the neck. Fortunately, the length is less than a bundle, so it looks very fashionable.
Liu Qingshan is an artist himself, so it's not surprising that his designs are a bit exaggerated. What he should be most fortunate about is that they didn't design them into the kind of stage clothes with hanging decorations, tassels and tassels everywhere.
"It's okay, at least I can go out, but the extra cost is not low. It was approved by an internal high-level meeting, right?"
"Nothing can be hidden from Mr. Liu!" Seeing that the other party did not refuse directly, Li Minzhen was already grateful in her heart. "At the ministerial meeting at the headquarters, even more generous conditions were given, that is, Mr. Liu will be responsible for the future, including stage performance costumes. Everything within is made for free!”
