God's New Clothes

After listening to Tong Yan's introduction, Xu Yunsheng nodded and said, "That's right, the young designer has an idea, but the color is a little too tender. Many of our former customers are in their 50s and [-]s. Could it be that they can't wear it?" ?" Xu Yunsheng's voice was very kind, and his speaking speed was very slow. He asked a question in a pleasant manner, not as tense as when he was talking to Xu Shi'an.

Tong Yan's eyes widened and he listened carefully to every word Xu Yunsheng told him, for fear of missing something, then swept around the store like a whirlwind, and appeared in front of Xu Yunsheng again holding a pile of clothes.

"Actually not. We have considered the problem of connecting with the original products and people at the beginning of the design, so the smoke gray in this series can well meet the needs of these people. The smoke gray coat is matched with the navy blue T-shirts, or this powder-gray ensemble are easy to pull off."

When it comes to his professional field, Tong Yan is a little more confident, and finally dares to face Xu Yunsheng squarely.The old man is recuperating well at home, his face is glowing red, his eyes are bright like torches, it seems that even his wrinkles have been nourished and bloomed, and he doesn't look as lethal as before.

Xu Yunsheng has been making clothes all his life. He can clearly see the level of YG's design in the past and what level it is now.It’s just that China is too big, the difference between the aesthetic level of first-tier cities and eighteenth-tier cities, and the gap between people’s aesthetics cannot be evened out overnight.

He sighed in his heart that Tong Yan did have two brushes, and at the same time hated him for leading Xu Shi'an to an evil path.Xu Yunsheng stared at Tong Yan meaningfully for a while and said: "Well, yes, you are very thoughtful and promising." After speaking, he turned and looked at Xu Shi'an, "Come with me, I have something to say to you alone explain."

Xu Shi'an had never been so nervous like today. He looked at Tong Yan, who was also staring at him in a panic. Worry, fear, and fear of the unknown were all written on his face. Xu Shi'an had no choice but to comfort Tong Yan with his eyes. , and then took his father to the office of the flagship store.

The door was closed, all the noise outside was cut off, and the room was surprisingly quiet.Xu Yunsheng sat on the manager's chair and turned around slowly, looking around at the furnishings of the office: "It's very good. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs."

Xu Shi'an poured a glass of water for his father and said, "I didn't know you were coming, and I didn't prepare your favorite tea."

"I'm not here for tea," Xu Yunsheng said, "Come over and sit down and talk."

Xu Shi'an struggled to walk across from his father, pulled out a chair and sat down, thinking about what he would do if the old man brought up Tong Yan as an issue, with so many media reporters around, if there was a big news about his son coming out of the closet and his father turning against him... Will they be able to save a lot of advertising costs?

It can't be blamed on him thinking wildly, it's Zhao Daren's crow's mouth that attracted the old man, and put him in such a passive situation, so he can only see what he does, and take every step he takes.

As soon as Xu Shi'an unbuttoned his suit and sat down, Xu Yunsheng said, "Good job." Xu Shi'an paused for a while without saying a word, and Xu Yunsheng continued, "It's much better than I expected."

Xu Shi'an knew what his father thought of him before, and his father's imagination of him was probably not much better. It would be too easy to exceed expectations. He said flatly: "There is no sales data yet. Your conclusion You can come down later."

There was a box of cigars on the table. Xu Yunsheng took out one and smelled it, and found that it was a decent one, so he put it back in the box. He raised his legs and said, "Do you really think I don't know anything? You signed the fashion week." So many buyer stores are not counted as data? So many agents are getting goods, and the factory can’t do it is not counted as data? I asked you to help me a long time ago, but you didn’t. It turned out that we disliked our small temple and couldn’t accommodate you. Great Buddha!"

Hearing this made Xu Shian's tooth ache: "Dad, you're going to hurt me by saying that. Isn't it right for me to do whatever I do for YG? The main reason is that you have a good foundation. Whether you are a great Buddha or not, I can do it at best." It's just a fight against Buddha, no matter how much you toss, it won't fly out of your old man's palm."

Is this taking him as a Tathagata?Xu Yunsheng snorted and murmured in his heart: You can't fly out of my palm, but you can pee in my hand, it just makes me sick!

The idea is very old and unscrupulous, and Xu Shi'an misled what he said: "I am not Tathagata Buddha, and you are not Monkey King, let's stop talking about Journey to the West, let's talk about the Three Kingdoms!"

Xu Shi'an couldn't keep up with the old man's train of thought, and asked doubtfully, "What Three Kingdoms?"

"New Matai!"

Xu Shi'an: "..."

Don't you say Tong Yan?Xu Shi'an was mentally prepared for his father's showdown with him, but he didn't expect the old man to make him a "new Matai". What's going on?

Xu Yunsheng didn't care about the war between heaven and man in his heart, he patted the armrest of the swivel chair and said: "When I was resting, an old friend who has been developing in Southeast Asia came to see me and asked me if I wanted to open the store there. He Because I am going to retire, I am going to sell several long-term leased stores, and now I am anxious to find a new home, I think you will transform YG, maybe there is such a demand, so I will accept it."

Xu Shi'an didn't even bother to listen carefully, he just listened to the general idea, and he answered casually: "Do you want to open a store in Southeast Asia?"

"It's not me, it's you!" Xu Yunsheng said, "Isn't your flagship store already open? It's much more convenient and faster to move this set of things overseas than to replace them bit by bit in China, and the effect can be seen immediately. I see this as an opportunity."

"Wait a minute, Dad," Xu Shi'an's mind was full of Tong Yan, but his father didn't follow the routine. He blurted out in a hurry, "I'll talk about opening the store later. I want to talk to you about Tong Yan."

As soon as the word Tong Yan came out, the room suddenly fell silent.

Xu Yunsheng's amiable expression disappeared in an instant, and his thick eyebrows came together sharply, returning to his usual expression in front of Xu Shi'an.

The father and son looked at each other for a long time before Xu Yunsheng said slowly, "You want to talk to me about Tong Yan? Today, now, are you sure?" While talking, he poked the table with his fingers until it made a "thud-thump" sound.

Asked by his father, Xu Shi'an also hesitated and was speechless for a while.

Xu Yunsheng stood up, walked to Xu Shi'an with his hands behind his back, and said word by word: "Talk to me when you think clearly. Remember what I taught you, recognize the general trend, set up big ambitions, seek the big picture, and do big things. You There is only one chance, think it over and come to me again!"

Outside the door, Tong Yan was very anxious all the time. He didn't know what the father and son had been talking about for so long, were they talking about him?Does the chairman know everything?How would Xu Shi'an explain it?Tong Yan dispatched several groups of reporters and stood stubbornly at the door of the office. If something happened, he felt that Xu Shi'an should not face it alone.

Zhao Daren wanted to laugh when he saw his face as if he was facing a big enemy. It was rare for him not to save him, so he walked over to Tong Yan and said, "Don't worry, the old man won't have a showdown with you on such an important day, just relax Son!" After speaking, he slapped Tong Yan on the head twice.

Tong Yan looked up at Zhao Daren, the corner of his mouth was curled up, and he winked at him.Tong Yan didn't like this expression, it made him feel that Zhao Daren seemed to have insight into everything, but he himself knew nothing about what was about to happen.

Zhao Daren said again, "However, you have to prepare for the worst."

What's the worst?Tong Yan didn't dare to think about it, even if he thought about it for a while, he felt a twinge in his heart.At this moment, the door of the office opened, and Xu Shi'an sent his father out.

The expressions of the two seemed to be the same as when they first entered. When Xu Yunsheng passed by Tong Yan, he deliberately stopped and looked at him with a half-smile, which made Tong Yan's scalp tingle, and he turned his eyes to Xu Shi'an helplessly.

Xu Shi'an just shook his head slightly, and before Tong Yan could figure out what it meant, he felt his body sink. Xu Yunsheng squeezed his shoulder heavily, and then lightly said: "There are two tricks!"

Tong Yan was stunned, and even forgot to say goodbye. It was not until the two of them walked a long way that he leaned against the wall like a deflated ball, and the clothes next to his body were wet.

After seeing off Xu Yunsheng, Xu Shi'an returned to the store. The guest reporters had already left in a hurry, and only Tong Yan was still leaning against the door of the office.

Xu Shi'an walked over and found that Tong Yan's face was pale, so he pulled him up and asked, "Why is his face so bad, it's okay, everyone has left."

Tong Yan supported Xu Shi'an's arm and asked, "Did the chairman say anything?"

Xu Shi'an looked at Zhao Daren who stretched his neck to eavesdrop on their conversation, shook his head and said, "No."

Tong Yan didn't believe it: "Don't hide it from me, just tell me what you have to say."

"Really not. I talked about some business matters, but didn't talk about us. Let's talk about the rest when we go home."

Tong Yan nodded dubiously, and heaved a sigh of relief.

On the way home, both of them were a little silent, and only the radio in the car was broadcasting the latest weather information.

"The Beijing Meteorological Observatory issued a blue cold wave warning. From tomorrow, most parts of North China will usher in a new wave of cold wave. At that time, there may be snowfall or strong winds to cool down. The temperature is expected to drop by about ten degrees. Citizens are requested to take precautions against the cold Keep warm and prepare..."

Tong Yan stretched out his hand and pressed the button on the center console to switch to a music channel. The signal may not be very good. A lyric song was sung loudly, which was very ear-piercing. Tong Yan simply turned off the radio.

He was in a mess, thinking about Zhao Daren's "worst plan", but Xu Yunsheng didn't say anything when he came around, what did he mean?

In fact, Xu Shi'an's heart was even more chaotic.Although Xu Yunsheng didn't seem to say anything, his attitude was very clear. This was an ultimatum.If Xu Shi'an was sensible and separated from Tong Yan, then there would be no need for Xu Yunsheng to talk to him anymore.He continues to be his acting chairman, and maybe he can remove the word agent.

What if he is ignorant?

They didn't talk all the way, until the two returned home, Xu Shi'an was bending over to change his shoes, when Tong Yan hugged him from behind.

Xu Shi'an got up slowly, patted the back of Tong Yan's hand and said, "Don't be afraid, the timing is not right today, I will find him in a few days and explain our matter clearly."

Tong Yan closed his eyes and rubbed against Xu Shian's back, hugged him tighter, and expressed his concern: "What if the chairman disagrees?"

Xu Shi'an's body froze for a moment, and he turned around slowly.At this time, he really wanted to give Tong Yan a reassurance, but he didn't, but he didn't want to lie either.He stroked the corners of Tong Yan's slightly drooping eyes, and said firmly, "It doesn't matter if the whole world disagrees, as long as you agree!"

These words are very pleasant, but Tong Yan knew that Xu Shi'an said this just to comfort himself, so he asked cautiously: "Did I embarrass you?"

The more Tong Yan said this, the more Xu Shian felt distressed. He said seriously: "I don't allow you to think that way. Remember, we didn't do anything wrong. You are not allowed to blame yourself, feel guilty, let alone shrink back, you know? Throw all the bad things away for me, and I will ask you, do you love me?"

Tong Yan was taken aback by Xu Shi'an's sudden increase in volume, and nodded reflexively.

"Don't nod, talk!"

"Love!"

Xu Shi'an hugged Tong Yan back into his arms, and whispered in his ear: "I love you too!"
