But Chen Liquan himself didn't have much confidence, and instead seemed very embarrassed.
So he laughed naively twice and quickly moved the topic to the next question.
"Xiao Wu, I probably understand the thing about the bat shirt. Then tell me, what about the jeans? I think these things are actually similar to our labor cloth work clothes. And the jeans you put in
, there are not many flared legs, most of them are ordinary straight pants, isn’t this completely contrary to what you just said?”
Hong Yanwu was even more pleased with this. Who said that Chen Liquan must be rough-minded if he is simple and honest? Isn't this quite subtle?
And it’s especially good to want to get to the bottom of things you don’t understand.
This is already considered as being able to think independently. If he continues like this, sooner or later he will have his own unique opinions.
"Quanzi, the emergence and existence of anything has an inevitable process, with peaks and declines, and cycles of replacement. This principle is called "fashion trend" when it comes to clothing, and it is also called chasing fashion.
"You see, bell-bottom pants have been popular for several years. The first people to wear them started watching "Looking Home" and "The Hunt", and they are almost tired of them. Now, these pants still feel fresh.
People, they just follow others."
"This also means that almost everyone who can wear them has worn them, which means that the appeal of bell-bottoms to people is weak. Then once other styles become popular, bell-bottoms will immediately change from a representative of fashion to outdated.
The rubbish."
"Our people love to go to extremes! You see, whether it's drinking kombucha or taking chicken blood, when it becomes popular, everyone wants to participate. Once this trend is over, who will do it? Why is this? In fact, this is also a big problem
The legacy of the Leap Forward and Movement periods..."
Hong Yanwu's analysis could not help but make Chen Liquan marvel again.
"Ah? Then...you mean that bell-bottom pants are at risk of falling into your hands?"
However, he was not slow in thinking and quickly found the arguments and agreed with them.
"That's right. The front line of reform and opening up is the south, and our goods come from Huacheng. We don't deliberately choose, so why are these jeans half flared and straight? Come to think of it,
Flare-leg jeans are probably not sold, and straight-leg jeans are probably the new thing they have introduced. Doesn’t this just illustrate the trend that will happen in the future?”
And his words naturally made Hong Yanwu feel the pleasure of talking to an understanding person effortlessly.
Obviously, it seems that Chen Liquan's stay with him was indeed not in vain. This kid is already quite capable of understanding subtle things and drawing inferences from one instance to another.
He couldn't help but say a few more words, hoping to tell Chen Liquan more of his own experience through this incident.
"Quanzi, there is one thing you still don't know. In fact, people are not just interested in the things they create. They are interested in things that can represent an era, contain profound humanistic culture, and can be integrated with emotions.
, there will also be a lasting love, and it will not be a problem to continue for generations. This is the so-called 'classic'. And jeans are exactly such a classic garment that can withstand the test of time."
"As the name suggests, these pants were originally just canvas overalls worn by cattle herders when the United States was developing the West. However, due to the spread of American western movies, this kind of pants has gradually become synonymous with ruggedness, pastoralism, wildness, and vitality. No matter who is wearing it,
When you see it, you can think of the United States and the big stars in Western movies. Therefore, it is loved by many people. Now it has completely penetrated into urban life and has become a stereotyped clothing that is popular all over the world."
"You may not notice that its fabric is very similar to our labor cloth, but in fact, the differences are quite big in all aspects. It can be said that it is distinguishable at a glance. The style of jeans is a short rise, a small back waist, and two patch pockets on the back buttocks.
And only copper buckles and leather are used for decoration. The sewing uses thick and hard threads such as orange, purple, red, and white, and the huge contrast between the thread and the fabric and the whitening effect of the color are fashionable."
"In short, the combination of these characteristics is an iconic symbol in itself. It makes jeans irreplaceable and unique. If you think about it, this thing is as popular as the Chinese tunic suit and cheongsam that represent our nation.
After a hundred years, can we still say that they are outdated? To put it bluntly, jeans will always be worn by people and will always be sold. Among all the imported clothing, they are the safest."
"And don't worry, even if I get the fashion trend wrong, I still have the last resort. Don't forget, in the worst case, you can still change it. You see, the fear of changing clothes is that there is not enough fabric, but like bat shirts and horns
Isn’t it easy to cut down clothes like trousers? Jeans are easier to handle. Changing trousers into shorts, or simply changing a school bag into cloth shoe uppers, it will work the same no matter what. Do you think that’s right?”
Chen Liquan was really impressed by these words.
"Awesome! Xiao Wu, you are so awesome! Not only are you full of clever tricks, how come you know so much? I think you have become a clothing expert, and I think you are more than capable of running a clothing company. Don't look at Su Jinhui
You may not know as much as you about making clothes. Could it be that Xiaoru learned what you said in college and then told you about it? College can't be that good, right?"
When it comes to this issue, how else can Hong Yanwu react? He can only make a haha first.
Fortunately, Chen Liquan did not delve too deeply into why he was so wise and powerful. He still had another question that seemed difficult to ask.
"Xiao Wu, actually... I have something that I'm quite worried about. I don't know if I should talk about it."
Hong Yanwu noticed Chen Liquan's hesitation, took his wine glass, and poured him a glass of Maotai encouragingly.
"You're so funny. Is there anything we can't say between us? Look, there's cigarettes and wine here, and we still have time, so why not talk? Tell me, just say whatever you want to ask.
!”
In this case, Chen Liquan was no longer restrained, took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Actually, I just don't worry about what will happen in the future. Are you really so worried about leaving Huacheng to those boys? Regardless of the risks in business or the risks on the road, the key is that the risk to people's hearts is too high
"Yes. You have said everything clearly, but who of these people are economical? If you make such a big fuss, maybe someone will forget it in a few months. Do you believe it?"
"So I think there is absolutely a difference between controlling this matter with you and without you. You really can't just let it go. But after thinking about it, how can you care about it? Not to mention that the other end is two miles away.
Thousands of kilometers away, it's beyond reach. Even here in the capital, your stall is too big."
"It's not easy for us to leave this time. All the brothers have opinions, and half of other businesses have stopped. If something happens to Huacheng later, you can straighten things out again.
Well, if people’s hearts are in turmoil in other areas, I’m afraid the losses will not be small.”
"Actually, if I tell you the truth, it's okay if we don't earn this money. We can't spend all the money now. Does it make sense for you to put so much effort into this? What on earth do you think? Is this really true?
Is that important?"
"I have no other intention. I am not questioning your decision. I am mainly worried that your predictions are too optimistic..."
Of course Chen Liquan's words did not make Hong Yanwu angry, but instead made him feel warm in his heart.
He immediately filled up the glasses for Chen Liquan and himself, and raised the glasses again.
"Quanzi, you are really my good brother. Don't say anything anymore. We are both drunk."
And it wasn't until he drank the drink that he explained to Chen Liquan with the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
"Quanzi, listen to me, why does this matter have to be done? Because all our other businesses now are just taking advantage of loopholes. Not only will they not see the light of day, they can only be done for a while, and they will never last long. If we really want to do this for the big guys,
The future has been arranged, and only doing this is the real way out. Because this way is not only legal, but also in line with the trend of social development, and has a bright future. Maybe our people can become reform pioneers and young entrepreneurs.
Woolen cloth?"
"Ah? Entrepreneur?"
No wonder Chen Liquan was stunned. This term is still so new now that it is rarely seen in newspapers.
Hong Yanwu did not dwell on this and continued talking.
"As for what you said about the human heart, I agree with you. Five fingers are not even long on one side, let alone being picked from a bunch of bad guys. I have fully delegated my authority, and it is impossible for them to have other ideas. But you
Don’t forget, I also made the system based on people’s hearts.”
"You see, they are responsible for purchasing goods in Huacheng. Not only do they have to remember all the accounts clearly, but they also have to return to the capital to report the accounts to me when shipping the goods. Do you know why they are grouped into separate accounts? It is just so that they can compare with each other.
.”
At this point, Hong Yanwu saw Chen Liquan frowning and opening his mouth to speak, and knew what he was going to say.
"Are you afraid that the two groups of them will reach some private agreement? I tell you, no. Do you know why I inserted the two guys who fucked the hotel into two groups? This is mixing sand. Also, each of them is a group.
Three people.”
"Think about it carefully. Isn't this kind of partnership the most interesting? No one can be sure that the other two people will not snitch, and once someone does snitch, if the snitch deliberately hides it, there is no way to be sure who it is. So even if everyone
It is impossible to truly trust each other within a group. Even though they are 'out there', they have no other choice but to run their errands."
"Finally, don't forget, I have two other informants. Ahua is a real person, she can't lie, and I remit her salary every month, what can she not tell me?" Ci'er
Mei' has received so many benefits from me, and she will definitely stand by me, no matter who tries to pull her away. Right? You said people's hearts must change, but not everyone can change."
