Chapter 195 [Luxury Plan]
In mid-July, in Central, the busiest area on Hong Kong Island, two private custom clothing brands under Uniqlo finally came out after long-awaited calls.
The brand for men's tailoring is called Armani, and the brand for women's is Valentino.
The two brands were contemplated for half a year before they were launched on the market. In half a year, the staff were sent all over the world to find the best quality fabrics.
Of course, the most important thing is the designer. Wu Guangyao spent a lot of money to recruit several top fashion designers in Europe and America.
These designers can not only get 1.5 times the salary in Europe and the United States, but also get brand shares after working for three years. This is the reason why they decided to come to Little Hong Kong Island.
On the day of the opening, Wu Guangyao used all his connections, including the Governor, Chief Secretary, HSBC Taipan and other heavyweights, to invite all of them to the Armani store.
With Wu Guangyao's current influence and net worth, even the London royal family probably already knows about it, let alone the colonial officials like the Governor of Hong Kong.
The most important reason for this is of course the 29 cargo/oil tankers with a total load capacity of 420,000 tons.
Having a fleet is equivalent to having a maritime kingdom, and it is the object that many countries need to win over!
For example, Bao Yugang of later generations can even meet the president of the United States, which shows how much influence he has.
Of course, PG Zipper is also a company with great influence. How can there be no reason why the "world zipper king" has no name?
With so many heavyweight guests coming to the Armani store, it was natural for Wu Guangyao to hold a tailoring ceremony.
A big red flower, two ends of red silk, Wu Guangyao and Ge Lianghong stood on both sides, under the command of the host Fu Hongru, began to cut the red silk, this is the so-called ribbon-cutting ceremony.
"Governor, Chief Secretary, Taipan upstairs please, let our designer customize a suit for you and send it to you later." Wu Guangyao said with a smile.
"Then go in and visit Mr. Wu's another great masterpiece!" The governor said first.
The Chinese businessmen in front of me are growing too fast, and even the governor of Hong Kong needs to rely on him to develop the economy of Hong Kong Island.
Moreover, this person's future will not stop at this, and the respect that should be given will naturally be given, so he agreed to this opening ceremony.
The entire store leased three floors,
The lobby on the first floor is the place for reception and display, the second floor is the place for design and reception, and the third floor is the place for production and storage.
Walking into the hall, you can feel the grandeur. There is a large chandelier hanging in the center of the hall, the oil paintings of European and American celebrities on the wall, and the antiques displayed in the glass cabinets in the corner, all of which make people feel the luxury here.
"Mr. Wu, you are really the businessman who is most optimistic about the future of Hong Kong Island!" Hong Kong Governor Ge Lianghong couldn't help but said that Hong Kong Island is so dangerous and impoverished, there are so many refugees, and the outside world is being targeted by the United States.
With such a large-scale investment, he even started high-end businesses such as diamonds and custom-made high-end clothing, which is obviously optimistic about the future of Hong Kong Island.
When Wu Guangyao heard these words, his face became more confident, and he said to these foreigners: "Yes, Hong Kong Island will definitely be the next New York and London, this is what I have always thought, and it has never changed! "
Wu Guangyao's words stunned the foreigners, and their hearts were filled with disbelief!
Where are New York and London? They are the most developed places in the world, and they are backed by two big countries. How can a small Hong Kong Island be comparable?
"However, the current situation on Hong Kong Island is not good!" the HSBC bank executive interjected.
Wu Guangyao naturally knew what he was talking about, and it was nothing more than the US sanctions and other issues.
"Isn't it already back to the negotiating table? It means that the war will end sooner or later, and the sanctions on Hong Kong Island will also end. In fact, everyone understands the many advantages of Hong Kong Island. If there is no threat of war and sanctions, it will break out immediately. Of course, any development needs a process, which may take 50 years or 30 years. But we are all witnesses and creators of this history..." Wu Guangyao said slowly.
Wu Guangyao put himself in the same position as the Hong Kong government, so he naturally has the confidence and strength, and he is not afraid that a few people will think that Wu Guangyao is proud.
Their own PG Zipper, Uniqlo, and Global Shipping, these companies not only solved the employment of nearly tens of thousands of people on Hong Kong Island, but also brought countless foreign exchange to Hong Kong Island. compared to.
In terms of the contribution of enterprises, none can surpass Wu Guangyao;
Several major foreign firms have the habit of making money in Hong Kong and spending money in London. This is simply a vampire.
After Wu Guangyao finished speaking, he inadvertently looked at the eyes of several people, and saw that there was nothing unusual!
Several people came upstairs while chatting.
Wu Guangyao introduced designers from the United States and London to several people, and the surprised expressions of several people flashed past, which was captured by Wu Guangyao.
They were thinking in their hearts, since they are well-known designers in Europe and America, why did they come to this small Hong Kong Island?
If the salary is high, will the company lose money?
Naturally, these designers are not only for high salaries and shares, because they also want a simple plan to make them excited.
Naturally, European and American designers would not have any fear of these colonial officials, so they would come to chat with them soon; ask a few of them for their own opinions on clothing, and then combine the opinions of the designers, this is the best way to customize Meaning - communication.
Then start to measure the figure, and measure every part of the body to make the most suitable clothing.
With the designer's exchange and reception, Wu Guangyao stood up and left, and continued to receive friends and distinguished guests.
In Warren Tiannu store, Lin Yueru also returned to work and took up the post of president.
It can be regarded as Wu Guangyao encouraged her to come out and work, so as not to be bored at home.
It is said to be the president, but the vice president presides over the overall work, and Lin Yueru is more of a symbol.
For Warren Tino, Chinese designers accounted for half, because foreign designers do not understand cheongsam.
But there are more designers on Valentino's side, because they can also customize bags and image designs.
Therefore, it should be welcomed by many ladies!
At the end of the day's work, Lin Yueru chattered non-stop in front of Wu Guangyao, it was obvious that she liked this job so much
Since his wife liked it, Wu Guangyao decided to develop the company well.
"Currently, Valentino is only in its infancy. In the future, we will promote it to the world and become a real luxury brand. Luxury goods are not only commodities that provide use value, but also commodities that provide high added value; luxury goods also It is not only a commodity that provides tangible value, but also a commodity that provides intangible value. For luxury goods, its intangible value is often higher than the visible value...." Wu Guangyao began to instill in Lin Yueru the LV, Chanel's concept of those luxury brands.
"But the value of this thing exceeds its own value dozens of times, will anyone buy it?"
Lin Yueru had an incredible expression on her face, because Wu Guangyao said that a piece of clothing that costs 20 Hong Kong dollars can be sold for 500 Hong Kong dollars.
"Of course there is, and many people will buy it! As I said, what they buy is intangible value. For example, the wisdom of the designer, the effect of our publicity, everyone's vanity, and the value of the brand. These are intangible values."
Lin Yueru pulled Wu Guangyao to explain to her more clearly, but Wu Guangyao was a little short of words, so she could only tell him stories, referring to the case of luxury goods in China for later generations.
"To sum up, we are not considered a luxury product now, because we have not achieved globalization and have not widely advertised the concept of this brand. So, step by step, let's become a high-end customization in Hong Kong Island first!" Wu Guangyao finally said.
Meals need to be eaten bite by bite, and even the smash hit LV will eventually join the consortium, seeking to keep warm.
How can her own luxury plan be smooth sailing!
Any enterprise will have a cold winter season. If it passes, it will be smooth sailing. If it fails, it will be acquired by others or go bankrupt.
Of course, I am a consortium myself, so I don't have to choose to join others!
