Just like every woman in the world, Sheng Changya once had beautiful visions for her wedding.
This imagination reached its peak when she was in her early twenties.
At that time, she had just graduated from college and entered a large company. She looked at everything with curiosity and eagerness.
It was a sizzling youth feast, filled with flowers and champagne.
At least, in her young and ignorant imagination, life should be like this.
Her greatest pleasure is reading the company's free fashion magazines and imagining her lavish future.
Especially the day when you hold hands with Prince Charming and walk into the wedding hall lovingly.
She even took photos of all the eye-poppingly beautiful white wedding photos in magazines and saved them in a folder.
After repeated rehearsals in her mind, she already knew that she would hold a grand wedding on a romantic island. Amidst the blessings of the guests, she wore a white floor-length fishtail lace dress and walked through the corridor filled with flowers. Entrusted to a wishful man.
At every wedding, the face of the wishful man is always blurred, constantly changing into different handsome faces.
No matter what, she knew that that day would be her most beautiful and happiest day.
However, as time goes by, her life becomes more and more like a piece of scratch paper full of graffiti, being ruthlessly devoured by the shredder of reality.
The word wedding slowly faded out of her consciousness, like broken soap suds, leaving no trace.
Even now, she has been able to afford the most beautiful Weiwei Wang wedding dress in the magazine, but she has never stayed on any wedding dress page for a second.
Work has taken up all the space in her life, and her relationship has completely become a ghost story for her.
However, when she saw Jian Jianyun in front of her today wearing red makeup, her heart still stopped for a beat.
A strong and familiar desire emerged from his body again.
That's the DNA you're born with.
"If I could wear such a wedding dress, I would be willing to get married immediately."
Such thoughts flashed through her mind.
Three seconds later, Sheng Changya immediately came to her senses and greeted him with a face of surprise.
"Sister Yun, you are so beautiful."
Jian Jian Yun smiled shyly and said: "There is no full-length mirror inside. I want to see how the style looks first. There is also a set of Xia Pei that I haven't put on yet."
"Hurry up and put them all on. If you want to try, of course you can try the whole set." Sheng Changya urged.
Jian Jian Yun returned to the dressing room again. When he came out, he seemed to be a different person, becoming gorgeous and solemn.
She was covered with a bright red embroidered double-breasted robe, with dark tangled branches looming.
Two large collars embroidered with gold clouds and dragon patterns are like a long colorful belt, hanging on the chest, with a golden phoenix pendant hanging from the lower end.
There are two phoenixes and dragon crowns on the head, embellished with green color. There are three phoenixes with spread wings on the front, with beads hanging from their mouths hanging on both sides, swaying with the steps.
If I looked beautiful and dignified before wearing the phoenix crown and harem before, now I look even more breathtaking and graceful. My whole person is as noble as a god on the throne, which makes people dare not Look directly.
Hearing a whoosh, Sheng Changya and Boss Dai both took a breath of air.
"Sure enough, a woman has only one choice for marriage, and that is Fengguanxiapei." Boss Dai murmured to himself, and suddenly rushed forward in excitement.
"Mrs. Wei, can you take a photo of your wedding dress and display it here? You can make any conditions you wish."
Jian Jianyun thought for a moment, smiled and shook his head.
However, seeing the disappointed look on his face, she still kindly reminded him.
"Our wedding will be live broadcast on all platforms, you can watch the whole process and play it in the store."
Boss Dai was immediately overjoyed: "Thanks to you, with Madam as a living advertisement, Chinese weddings will surely set off a new craze, and Hanfu experience centers across the country will become a hit."
Sheng Changya smiled on the side and said, "You can consider expanding your business."
Jian Jian Yun smiled slightly, feeling that the wedding could not only make herself happy, but also benefit others, and she was very happy.
She came to the decorated background wall, sat upright on a chair, looked at the camera, and started taking pictures.
There are a total of five wedding outfits this time, which are worn when dressing up, going out, welcoming guests, main ceremony and toasting.
The fengguanxiapei used in the main ceremony is the most gorgeous set. During the Ming Dynasty, the married woman would only wear it when participating in the most important ceremonies.
The other sets are not bright red, not so festive, but more elegance and tenderness of the daughter's family.
In particular, the dress she wore when going out was a white-based pink-patterned dragon gown with a stand-up collar. The jewelry was also in the shape of pink peach blossoms, which was eye-catching.
After Jian Lian Yun puts it on, she has a rather romantic demeanor with a human face and peach blossoms complementing each other. It is very different from the usual dignified and ladylike appearance, and is extremely endearing.
After trying on all five sets of wedding clothes, Jian Jianyun was very satisfied. The look for the wedding day was finally officially decided, and the two of them came and returned happily.
After dinner, Sheng Changya returned home. It was already past nine o'clock.
She put on a burgundy silk nightgown and lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, in a daze, the image of the red wedding dress lingering in her mind.
After a while, I finally picked up my phone, found the person in charge of Minghua Hall, and sent a message.
"I tried on wedding clothes today and the boss lady was very satisfied."
Since it was a large order, the senior management dealt with her directly.
The other party responded quickly: "Thank you very much. Customer satisfaction is our greatest honor."
Sheng Changya thought for a moment and typed: "Another set of Fengguanxiapei."
"Okay, but if it's new, it may take a while."
"It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry, as long as you don't delay it until this time next year."
"Haha, I don't dare. I don't dare to place someone else's order with you, Mr. Sheng. In addition, can you provide me with your height and size information?"
Sheng Changya thought for a while and replied: "Don't bother, just follow the boss lady's trick and make one exactly the same."
"No problem, I would like to ask, which bride is it for?"
"It's not the bride. It's so beautiful. I want to collect a set."
Sheng Changya replied word by word, and a figure wearing a phoenix crown and harem once again appeared in his mind.
The familiar figure turned around, and what she saw was her own face.
****
Kunming City, Sanqing Headquarters.
Early in the morning, Wen Renlong happily ran to Tang Que's office.
"Old Tang, have you received the boss's invitation?"
Tang Que raised his head from the table and glanced at him: "Got it."
Wen Renlong suddenly looked like a big rooster, raising his head triumphantly: "I am the number one in the boss's heart, do you know? He actually asked me to be his best man, tsk tsk, look at you, the others are I can only receive invitations.”
Tang Que lowered his head, waved his fingers on the keyboard, and said casually: "Oh, the boss also asked me to be the best man, but I refused."
"What?" Wen Renlong's smile froze and he said in shock: "Why did you refuse such a good thing? Do you know what best man means? It means that the boss treats us as friends, not just subordinates."
Tang Que said calmly: "I know, so I thanked him sincerely and explained the reason, that is, I didn't have time to attend the wedding rehearsal. In the end, he understood and accepted that I would attend the wedding as a guest."
"Oh, rehearsal." Wen Renlong suddenly realized: "Indeed, as a workaholic like you, you will definitely not want to give up your work to attend boring things like wedding rehearsals."
"Hey, what a pity. The bridesmaids this time are all classmates and friends of the bride. I heard there are quite a few beauties. You missed a great opportunity to get naked." Wen Renlong sighed repeatedly, feeling sorry for his brother.
Tang Que glared at him: "Women will only affect the speed of my experiments."
Wen Renlong couldn't help but shook his head: "I think you can become a monk and become a monk. Don't your family members urge you to get married?"
"Don't worry, I have strict plans for every step of my life. In my plan, getting married at 40 is the most appropriate. If I haven't found the right partner by then, my parents will help me find it, and then Complete the mission of continuing the family lineage."
Tang Que said slowly, as if he was talking about a project schedule.
"What?" Wen Renlong was stunned for a moment: "Can this still happen? Do your parents agree? What if you don't do it?"
Tang Que looked at him in confusion: "How could it be? Don't you know something called blind date? Isn't the essence of marriage a reasonable match between men and women with different conditions? The final result is the output of high-quality offspring. I have evaluated my own Conditions, it is not difficult to find a good girl to marry in the worldly sense."
He pondered and said: "Of course, it is a little difficult to convince my parents, but I have always lived a good life according to my life plan, so they have a high degree of trust in me. And I delegated the most core functions to them, Looking for a matching woman, isn’t it?”
"And I also have a plan B. If the search for a woman doesn't go well, I will outsource this function."
"For specific matters, I wrote a project feasibility study report and obtained my parents' approval."
"So, I still have at least five years at my disposal."
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that my parents were young when they gave birth to me. This may be one of the reasons why they were able to accept it."
Wen Renlong stared at him dumbfounded, as if he was meeting his brother for the first time.
After a while, the corner of his mouth twisted and he uttered two words: "Awesome!"
Tang Que asked back: "What about you? Judging from your behavior in the love game, you have more choices than me. Do you have any plans for this?"
Wen Renlong's expression changed for a while, and he held back a sentence for a while: "No, just let it go."
Tang Que frowned and said: "Fate is the most unquantifiable thing. Your attitude is very unscientific. Blood inheritance and passing on one's own genes are the mission of every living thing. You have to fight against this instinct. I understand. , but cannot agree.”
"Okay, okay, I'm not here to listen to your long speech. I'm going back to work first."
Wen Renlong said expressionlessly and left as if fleeing.
In fact, he is not the only lucky one.
In addition to Wen Renlong, Wei Kang also invited several single subordinates to be groomsmen.
One reason is that he has very few friends. It has been many years since he graduated and he rarely interacts with his former classmates and friends. The other reason is the safety factor, so he tries his best to choose among familiar candidates.
As a result, Williams, Huang Qin, Wen Renlong and several other middle and high-level personnel were lucky enough to be selected.
Together with the bridesmaids, they will go through a series of rehearsals in the days leading up to the wedding to familiarize themselves with the process.
As for the bride and groom, the number of times they can participate in rehearsals is limited. They usually participate two days in advance, not as early as the groomsmen and bridesmaids.
Because during the entire wedding, most of the time, the two newlyweds act like marionettes, following the instructions of the people around them. Everything else needs to be done by the best man and bridesmaid.
The most important part of a Chinese wedding is the rehearsal.
It mainly guides the couple’s positioning process and precautions to make the wedding rhythm more compact, the connection more complete, and the image data left behind more perfect.
Western-style weddings can be casual and free, while Chinese-style weddings involve many wedding links, such as the groom's robe ceremony, the bride's blessing ceremony, and some even involve three kneels and nine kowtows, so rehearsals are essential.
According to Chinese tradition, three kneels and nine kowtows are required for the heaven and earth, parents, and husband and wife. However, young people usually choose simple clothing ceremonies and Wanfu ceremonies instead.
In addition to the newlyweds, the parents of the bride and groomsmen and bridesmaids also play a very important role, so the whole process is very involved.
The entire wedding rehearsal needs to be guided by a professional wedding host and cannot be left to chance.
In short, rehearsal is a very necessary part of a perfect Chinese-style wedding.
As the time approached, everyone began to get busy for the wedding.
At this time, Wei Kang received a call from Beijing.
"Hello, Mr. Wang, what? Did you hire a wedding host specifically for me?"
"Want the whole wedding to be shown on TV if I wanted to?"
He was stunned for a moment: "Isn't this a little too grand?"
Wang Guiqing said with a smile: "Didn't I receive an invitation from Mr. Wei a while ago? Oops, I just casually mentioned it to a few old friends. Mainly because they all admire you and thought I would take this opportunity to promote the national style. For a wedding, it’s very suitable.”
"This can also be regarded as conveying a kind of positive social energy of 'we are destined to be together in this life, stay together forever, return to inheritance, and grow old together'."
"If after watching this, everyone becomes yearning for the beautiful thing called marriage, that would be a good thing."
"In short, you don't have to worry about the camera crew and host. They will be the most professional team and will definitely produce a documentary like National Treasures."
Wei Kang couldn't help but smile: "Well, actually, I hired a special crew to film it."
Wang Guiqing laughed and said: "It's okay, everything is all about you. We don't care about the wedding. They will film it and then host the wedding and be a qualified emcee. This and other people should be fine."
"This can be regarded as the feelings of those old people towards Mr. Wei's wedding."
"Haha, we are just in a hurry. I hope they can do a good job and satisfy Mr. Wei."
Wei Kang was suddenly moved. He understood that this must be the wedding gift Wang Guiqing wanted to give him after learning that the wedding would be broadcast live on the entire network.
Of course, I would like to take this opportunity to promote the trend of marriage and childbirth, just in case someone wants to get married after reading it.
The superiors also took great pains to urge the marriage.
As for the crew he hired, it was not a well-known crew, and it was definitely not as powerful as the TV station's photography team.
If I could have my wedding filmed as a documentary, that would be a dream.
He immediately agreed: "Thank you, Mr. Wang."
With the arrival of National Day, TV stations and major live broadcast platforms have announced the news.
Wei Kang’s Chinese wedding will be broadcast on these platforms.
Since the TV station has a photography team, it even plans to turn it into a reality TV show. It will follow up from the rehearsal several days in advance until the end of the wedding.
We strive to present the entire wedding process completely in front of the audience, so that everyone can have a glimpse of the whole picture of a Chinese wedding.
As a result, this grand wedding instantly attracted the attention of people across the country.
Whether they are guests, fans, or even passers-by, as the National Day approaches, they all turn their attention to the wedding.
The so-called attention is nothing more than that.
