Chapter 990 Our Generation, Our Group
After booking a seat, it was half past five, Miranda said: "We'll go to have dinner after get off work."
Liang Ange took out the wedding invitation and solemnly handed it to Miranda.
"Ah!" Miranda took it happily and quickly opened it, "It's similar to Chen Ying's wedding invitation!"
"Um."
The two of them smiled and looked at each other. Chen Ying was watching the sunset together, and theirs was chasing the sunset together.
They are all romantic and beautiful.
Miranda put the wedding invitation into the drawer, turned the calendar on the table until June, and circled out 6.15.
Seeing that she was so focused, the two of them smiled.
The group went downstairs to have dinner.
During this period, we discussed the menu for the dinner.
Miranda said: "Ange is very good at preparing the banquet menu. Do you want to prepare it?"
Liang Ange shook his head, and Qin Kong smiled and said, "It's better to follow your reservation. You said that everyone is here to show off, not to have a meal."
Everyone laughed.
Miranda smiled and said, "Yes, but it's not OK to be prepared. Anyway, there are those menus every year. There are all kinds of people, so it's not easy to make mistakes."
Qin Kong nodded, "Yes! We used to combine Chinese and Western food, because most of them were Yan Guo people or small gatherings. But the more than 500 people should follow your reservation."
Miranda nodded, "The banquet is basically round table. Do you want the Yanguo style tablecloth? Curtains? We can purchase it from Yanguocheng."
Everyone can bear to laugh.
Miranda looked at Chen Ying, "We said before that the banquet hall was arranged like the new night stage, such as Chinese furniture, such as mahogany, window flowers, hang lanterns, curtains and tablecloths were all made of auspicious clouds or bamboo patterns, Yanguo landscape paintings were pasted on the walls, and Phalaenopsis was placed on the table."
Everyone could hardly help it, but Miranda was very serious.
Chen Ying shook her head, "Forget it, it's still a little too early to celebrate the New Year!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Qin Kong smiled and said, "No need. Let's go to the spot tomorrow and see how to decorate it."
"Um."
After dinner, we agreed to meet at the museum tomorrow. Miranda was taken home by the driver and everyone returned to the hotel.
It is difficult to take a taxi in New York, so everyone is not in a hurry to take a taxi and walk slowly on the road.
"They really think! Before we came, they piled up all kinds of Yan Guo styles together!" Mu Yang said, "It's also difficult for them! As a result, he was rejected by Teacher Qin!"
"Miranda and her men are probably thinking, we are trying hard to get the Yan Guofeng. When a group of Yan Guoren comes, they will not want the Yan Guofeng!"
Liang Ange smiled and said, "This means they watched Xinwan seriously!"
The designers looked at Chen Ying and quickly said, "We are not talking about the new night dance and the beauty of the Tu!"
Chen Ying didn't care. Anyway, the ones he and Qin Kong disagree the most were him!
Qin Kong smiled and shook his head, "They have such a decoration, which may be beautiful. But after all, it is not a New Year party, and the guests who come are also foreigners.
In fact, foreigners may indeed be interested in Yan Country culture. People’s biggest interest is to yearn for other places. But I don’t want to make a Yan Country masquerade ball.
Yunshang is a world-wide brand. A world-wide brand never claims its own style based on its country. Have you ever seen Ai Meili say that he is Italian? Does Di Ao say that she is French?
A great designer is looking for inspiration from the world and applying it to his own design. Too much obsessed with the style of a certain region and a certain country will limit himself.
It is stupid to associate fashion art with regional politics. There are many stupid brands now. But we cannot draw a prison. So we abandon the idea of pursuing the Yan Guo style at all times."
Everyone nodded.
"And what exactly is the Yan Guo style? Is it just lantern window flowers? Plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum?"
Everyone was silent.
"Miranda is right, even Western culture and art are still in the Renaissance. The glory of this era may require people from the next era to present awards.
The cultural fault in Yan Country is our own business. You can’t understand it yourself. You are all piled up elements, but you require foreigners to express it accurately.
Whether it is foreigners, or our designers and so-called artists in Yan Kingdom, many of them have Qianlong's aesthetics, focusing on gorgeous stacking and eye-catching color matching. But the real beauty of Yan Kingdom culture lies in Feng Shui.
"Feng Shui!" Everyone widened their eyes.
Is Teacher Qin really unstoppable? He has started to study Feng Shui.
"Ai Meili likes traveling, likes sunshine, wind and water. He completes designs during his trip. So he can best grasp the essence of Yan Guo style.
The essence of Yan Guo style is the dignity and reserve before opening the door, and the mystery. Feng and Shuichang suddenly became clear after opening the door."
Everyone nodded in a sudden realization.
"The Yan Guo style should have a sense of circulation and tolerance. There is no need to be obsessed with the accumulation of elements."
The designers nodded.
Chen Ying also smiled and nodded.
"Like some brands, they will also hold Egyptian-themed shows, all kinds of golden light, hoods, cloaks, pharaohs, mummies."
Everyone laughed.
"They also have some stereotypes about Yanguo. Lanterns! Yanguo is red! So they think of using Chinese furniture, mahogany furniture and so on in the banquet hall."
Everyone couldn't help laughing again, and a group of foreigners were really worried about their themed dance party!
"In this way, everyone will understand that you are the theme of Yanguo. It's like you're in Yanguo City. But what after you finish it? What impact can it have?"
The designers were silent.
“Although we hold dance parties in museums, I never care whether our clothes are in museums, and our clothes should be worn on people.
If you want to enter a museum, then I hope that when the audience sees it, they will say: This is very fashionable, I want to wear it. The clothes designed by Sheng Luolang in the 19th century can give people a century later this feeling.
Instead of those that have too heavy and too gorgeous rituals, although it marks an era, it is also obscured by the era. When you see it, you will only think of wearing clothes to travel back to that era."
Everyone nodded.
"We should strive to make Yunshang a fashioned clothing that will be the pioneering era."
The designers nodded.
"So you must not be complacent and cater to their stereotypes about Yan Kingdom. Just like we used to know the West, we always say that we look at dioramas. The West also has a wonder of understanding Yan Kingdom.
However, with the introduction of Western culture, we have accepted and understood Western culture, especially this or two generations, who have particularly admired Western culture, which made others very panic and couldn't wait to pick up our own culture again.
Yes, it is to pick it up, not build it. It is like a piece of porcelain that has broken all over the ground. Is it good? OK, even the name of our country is translated from this word abroad.
But it is indeed broken, we stick it up, it is also a broken antique. People may praise its beauty, but they will not use it.
What we can truly influence the world and truly contribute to the world is practicality. Being able to apply our things to people's daily lives is how everyone accepts and understands us.
So, we can't stick the broken porcelain pieces together, but we break them completely, melt them back into mud, reshape the embryo, and recreate a new thing, something with modern beauty and practicality."
Everyone nodded.
Chen Ying looked at him with a smile and always admired his views. The Yan Kingdom culture did stay in ancient times, and recently to the Republic of China. Modern times are all mirror images of the West, but we ourselves did not create the Yan Kingdom culture of this era.
"The modern aesthetics of Yan Kingdom are all imported products, and the middle is directly divided. Everyone is desperately learning Western culture and making it a fashion. Then, now, some people are panicked and want to inherit Yan Kingdom culture.
But what is the modern culture of Yan Kingdom? What is the influence of the world? What is the modern aesthetic of Yan Kingdom? What has made contributions to the world?"
Qin Kong shook his head, "The modern aesthetics of Yan Kingdom have not been established yet. If you ask the teachers in the school, they also learn from the West. If they are from Yan Kingdom, they must be from ancient times. There are no masters in modern times.
Culturally, the masters are all depicting the past, remembering the past, and praising the past. This is true for literature and art."
Chen Ying nodded, "Yes, whether it is a novel or a movie, those who go abroad to participate in the exhibition and win awards are all about the past. I don't know if it caters to foreigners' impression of Yanguo or what?
If this is always the case and no new things are involved, it will not be beneficial for spreading the culture of Yan Country. Everyone will be in a curious and arrogant attitude to examine the culture of Yan Country. They think that Yan Country has been staying in the past.
However, in modern Yan Kingdom, there is indeed no proud culture that belongs to it to spread, and there is no cultural generation that can influence the world."
"Why can't modern Yan people create their own culture?" Qin Kong said, "I think our generation, our group of people, should establish the modern aesthetics of Yan countries."
Everyone couldn't help but applauded excitedly, feeling like they were doing something great.
Chen Ying looked at him with a smile.
"We are doing this now!" Hu Yun said, "Whether it is clothing, music or photography, it is making everyone re-examine the country of Yan and form a trend."
The designers smiled and looked at the three of them, really proud.
I am not obsessed with the style of Yan Guo, but I am spreading the beauty of Yan Guo at all times!
When we returned to the hotel, we said good night and went back to our room to rest.
Liang Ange held Qin Kong's arm, "Teacher Kong, you are so awesome!"
"I actually don't like to show off. But people don't like to listen to small people, people like to listen to big people and regard them as the truth.
Therefore, we must become big names in order to establish a modern aesthetic system in the Yan Kingdom, spread the Yan Kingdom culture, and influence the world."
Liang Ange looked at him admiringly.
