Back to 1995

Chapter 594
After taking a sip of brandy, Eric told Song Yang, Gallo and others about the chaos in the European fashion circle.

The European fashion circle has always touted fashion trends in Europe, and also promoted things like European aristocrats, but after Eric's experience this time, it can only be said to be an eye-opener.

There is a red sofa rule in Hollywood. Those who are newcomers to Hollywood who want to enter the crew and get a role must sit on the red sofa of the producer. Playing this set of Harvey Weinstein is a unique skill.

But the Weinstein brothers came here clearly, and they never shy away from it. Everyone knows it well, and the two brothers are also extremely daring. His face and hands are dishonest, to tell the outside world that the prey in his arms has been captured by him, even if the other party is the Oscar queen!
"The guys in the British fashion industry are all men and women, and the French ones are not much better..."

During this period of time, Eric has been taking Victoria's Secret supermodels around to show in Europe and overseas. He has also participated in fashion parties in Europe and other places. It's not that Eric has never played, he is the largest nightclub in America The boss of the company, but the parties in the fashion industry in Europe still make Eric feel that his brain is open and he dares to play anything.

Before going, Eric still felt that the European fashion circle and celebrities are tall, and the American fashion circle is mainly based on the old European vane. After participating in a few parties, Eric completely lost his mind.

Dressing up like this now is also to promote the Victoria's Secret brand. Eric doesn't expect to be like Chanel Lafayette Karl Lagerfeld, but at least he can't let the European fashion industry ridicule him and the Victoria's Secret brand.

Even though he is dressed like this, there are still quite a few fashion industry media in Europe, secretly mocking Eric as a cowboy in the fashion industry...

"When I have a chance in the future, I want RICK to buy those brands!"

Eric smashed the wine bottle on the table and said, Eric was in America, when did he receive such birdishness? Even if the American media looked down on Eric's identity back then, no one dared to ridicule Eric , everyone knows that the king of the night scene is not easy to mess with.

The European media ridiculed Eric and belittled Eric's identity. In addition to his consistent style, there were also manipulations by those Victoria's Secret competitors. The major luxury brands in Europe have their own underwear brand business. As a result, Victoria's Secret If you come, you will take away their business. It would be strange to be happy.

"This Victoria's Secret trip to Europe is pretty good!" Eric said, looking at Song Yang.

"Gallo, do you want to hold your last bachelor party tonight? The Victoria's Secret models have all returned to America!" Eric said to Gallo.

Hearing this, Gallo couldn't help but glanced at Hailey. He thought about it. Many people in America hold a bachelor party before they get married or engaged. As for what will be played at the party, it depends on the host. The minds of those who want to go out, there are quite a few people who wantonly indulge in parties.

"No need!"

Song Yang glanced at Gallo, and said directly, there will be a lot of people coming tomorrow, including Adrian and the heads of those big companies, if there is any news about them, it will be a scandal.

When Gallo left, Song Yang frowned, looked at Eric and asked, "How is RICK and Victoria's Secret now?"

RICK company is a company invested by Song Yang personally. Song Yang has personally invested in many industries now, such as the manor and land in America, as well as RICK, Victoria's Secret, Siebel Automobile, etc. Naturally, the scale is not as large as that of Bill Guy. Ci play big.

Bill Gates' worth, Microsoft is only a small part of it now, and the rest of his worth is mostly supported by other investment industries. Even if Microsoft collapses, it won't hurt Bill Gates Bones, Song Yang is definitely no match for him now.

"This year, the number of self-operated and franchised stores of Victoria's Secret may exceed 17, and this year's revenue of Victoria's Secret may exceed US$[-] billion!"

Eric said that the biggest card in the hands of RICK now is Victoria's Secret. The night business is no longer the most important thing for RICK. Cash flow business.

Victoria's Secret is now extremely vigorous, a big show, completely let Victoria's Secret soar into the sky, becoming the favorite of women all over the world, naturally it is crazy!

Song Yang nodded, "Continue with the promotion of Victoria's Secret. Victoria's Secret will continue to launch variety shows, talent shows, and reality shows to maintain the popularity of Victoria's Secret."

Luxury goods need to be constantly advertised to maintain popularity. Anyway, it must make people feel that this thing is tall, and let people take possession of it as a status symbol.

Victoria's Secret has already signed a five-year $1.5 million "Victoria Show" with CBS TV, that is, once a year through the CBS show, but the rest of the publicity cannot be stopped.

"Song," Eric sat up and leaned over Song Yang, his eyes showing excitement, "I heard a news in Europe that Bernard Arnault and the LVMH Group are attacking Gucci!"

Looking at the excitement in Eric's eyes, Song Yang immediately understood what he was thinking. When he acquired Victoria's Secret, Song Yang drew him a big cake, making him the king of the night scene and becoming the head of the fashion industry.

The acquisition of Victoria's Secret will not stop RICK. RICK has been looking for opportunities to enter other luxury goods fields, such as clothing, perfume, cosmetics, and alcohol.

Gucci is also one of the top luxury goods in the world. Gucci's women's bag is one of the top brands in the world. The rest of the watches, jewelry, perfumes, etc. are also good.

For this news, Song Yang believed it somewhat. Bernard Arnott of the LVMH Group was notoriously domineering. He kept acquiring major luxury brands, and he said that he was eyeing Gucci.

Eric took two steps anxiously, and now he has the feeling he had when he bought Victoria's Secret, anticipation and worry, this is not a trivial matter, RICK spent 17 million dollars to buy Victoria's Secret, and now Victoria's Secret's annual revenue may exceed $32 billion, and its valuation has exceeded $[-] billion.

But what is going on now is Gucci, which is more expensive than Victoria's Secret, so how can Eric not be worried.

"Song, now may be an opportunity. Gucci's management is competing with LVMH Group for the controlling stake in Gucci, and now Gucci is looking for help!" Eric stopped and said to Song Yang.

Bernard Arnault is acquiring a large number of Gucci's shares. Gucci's management did not resist this acquisition at the beginning. Now the luxury goods industry is gradually becoming a giant. Several luxury giants, their subordinates Dozens of luxury brands are dividing up the global luxury industry. If you don't rely on the giants, your life will be very sad.

However, Bernard Arnault did not want to pay much money for the acquisition of Gucci. He wanted to acquire Gucci at the lowest price. This made Gucci's management and the major shareholders behind it dissatisfied. Not willing to sell Gucci.

Now that Gucci is wrangling with the LVMH Group, Gucci also released news that it wanted to find helpers to deal with LVMH. This is why Eric heard the news. It was all released by Gucci on purpose. Want to find a big benefactor to fight Bernard!
"Gucci is no better than Victoria's Secret. If you want to acquire Gucci and compete with Bernard Arnault, I'm afraid it will cost billions of dollars to win Gucci!"

Song Yang frowned and said, this is indeed an opportunity. For RICK, with Victoria's Secret and the acquisition of Gucci, the first step for RICK to become a luxury empire is there, but there is still the problem, too expensive Now, the LVMH Group has been snatched by the tiger. In the future, Song Yang and Bernard Arnault will be sworn enemies. With Bernard's character, there is no room for relaxation.

If you expect Song Yang to make this kind of money, then you really think too much. Song Yang invested in RICK to make it a money printing machine, providing Song Yang with a steady stream of cash, but he has no interest in pawning it. Take advantage of.

There are too many uncertainties for a luxury brand company. Who knows what will happen to the gadgets that cost so much money to buy? Song Yang would rather sell RICK and Victoria’s Secret in a package than buy Gucci out of his own pocket. , If you want to buy it, you have to find someone who is taken advantage of and pays for it.

Eric was depressed for a while, Song Yang was unwilling to pay the money, so the acquisition of Gucci felt a bit far away, such an opportunity was missed, and if there was a next time, it would be the year of the monkey.

At this moment, Song Yang glanced away, saw a person who had just entered the villa, and immediately smiled and said to Eric, "Maybe, it's not hopeless for RICK to acquire Gucci..."

Eric followed Song Yang's gaze, and when he saw Chris Jain, his eyes lit up. It was a bit difficult to expect RICK to pay the billions of dollars, but it seemed that it would not be so if the Comerica Bank paid out. It's difficult, anyway, it's a trap, no, it's borrowing a dollar from the Bank of Comerica, not once or twice, but this time borrowing more.

"Congratulations Gallo, the director of Kerimiya will come in person tomorrow!"

Jain said to Gallo, Greg and others, now that Jain and Song Yang are on their own, naturally they don't need to worry so much.

After chatting with Jain, Gallo went to entertain other people. There are quite a few people here today. The members of the Bruno family, the old Bruno couple, and members of the Bruno family from other places will all be here today.

"what?!"

Gallo had just chatted with the others when he heard Chris Jain, who was sitting with Song Yang and Eric, howl, as if he was frightened.

"Shit," Chris Jain, who hadn't warmed his butt, was so startled that he almost jumped up when he heard Eric's words, and couldn't help but curse, "Eric, are you kidding me?" Bar!"

"You let Comelica Bank borrow RICK to pay for this money, do you know how much it costs to buy Gucci?!"
