Chapter 453: Acquaintance Plagiarism

"Plagiarism? Who plagiarized whom?"

Clothes similar to Wang Jiujiu's brand suddenly appeared on the market. When Wang Jiujiu found out about it, the other party had already sold them for quite some time. Because of this, the traffic to Wang Jiujiu's shop decreased significantly.

Wang Jiujiu doesn't manage the shop on weekdays. She hired an employee to be the owner. The rest of the time she specializes in custom-making clothes for people.

When she found out about this, she was extremely angry. Her brand was already in its infancy, and now someone was blatantly copying it and selling it at a cheap price. Doesn't this lower her status?

Wang Jiujiu opened this shop in cooperation with an embroiderer, who is also her classmate. The craft was passed down from generation to generation. The two college students were just starting out in their careers. Although they applied for protection from the Trademark Administration, the system was not yet perfect and the level of trademark protection was low, and they were unable to prevent this situation at all.

The two didn't know what to do.

She thought that this mall belonged to Chen Tang, so she wanted to discuss with Chen Tang how to deal with this matter.

Chen Tang gave her an idea: “Your store is located in my neighborhood. Usually, the customers are women from wealthy families. Although there are many clothes in the store, most of them are cheongsams. Even if the other party copies your cheongsam clothes, who can she sell them to?

You also know how much effort the two of us put in to open up this channel. Those dignitaries came to you to place orders, one because they were attracted by your good skills, and secondly, because we took the trouble to recommend you and they were willing to give face to our family. Those who copied your products could only sell to some middle- or lower-level women. With your status as Miss Wang, can't you find out who stabbed them in the back?

Plagiarism can't be eliminated, but it can't affect our interests. Although your brand is going for the high-end route, you can't let go of the middle and bottom lines. I suggest you go for high-end customization, lower the price of finished clothes, and take over the middle-level route.

As for the lower class, most of them don’t actually like to wear cheongsams, they are just following the trend, but how many years can they follow the trend? "

"The times are developing rapidly, and your brand also needs to improve. Qipao will no longer be the mainstream choice of people. You just need to do these three things."

"Which three words?" Wang Jiujiu asked.

“Exquisite, beautiful and unique!”

Chen Tang smiled calmly: "The most important point is uniqueness. It is enough that only your family has the most expensive, best and most exquisite cheongsam. As long as you make your cheongsam the only choice for nobles and make this unique word deeply rooted in people's hearts, then no one can imitate you."

Cheongsam is originally a niche clothing, and now is the best time to develop it into the cheongsam clothing of choice for women from wealthy families.

Wang Jiujiu can only develop other brands after it has built up its brand and made it famous.

Chen Tang has spent money, and she doesn't want the investment to fail. If Wang Jiujiu can't even solve the problem of plagiarism, then she still has a way to go.

Wang Jiujiu studied art, and although she taught herself design, she had no experience in managing a store.

After hearing Chen Tang's analysis bit by bit, Wang Jiujiu's originally arrogant personality was suddenly brought back to square one. It seemed that she still lacked experience.

After sending Wang Jiujiu away, Chen Tang didn't pay any attention to this matter.

She focused all her energy on her studies, preparing to complete the required credits in one year and finish her studies as soon as possible.

Later, Chen Tang found out that the person who stabbed her in the back was none other than her cousin Wang Sishui.

Wang Jiujiu had originally kept her entrepreneurial business a secret from her family; she wanted to wait until her business took off before telling them.

Only Qin Yin knew about this, and the money she had was also paid by Qin Yin.

Wang Sishui knew that she was hiding it from her family and there were not many people who could investigate, so she wanted to learn from her to make some money, so she stole the design drawings from Wang Jiujiu's house and sold them to other people.

Wang Jiujiu has many design styles. She usually only takes one style. For other styles, people can go to her store to look at them. After looking at them, she draws them and gives them to the other party. She doesn’t plan to do it often. Basically, she does it once every one or two months. She always thinks that she is not likely to be discovered.

Who could have thought that Wang Jiujiu was so perceptive and even found out what she was doing behind the scenes.

Wang Jiujiu was really angry. She had never expected that it was her own family who were behind the scenes.

She was so disgusted that she kicked Wang Sishui out of the Wang family that same day.

After this matter was resolved, Wang Jiujiu became much more mature and personally gave some new clothes to the people whose clothes were copied.

She acted quickly and sincerely, and the angry women were quickly appeased.

Time flies, and the Spring Festival of 1980 is approaching.

This year's Spring Festival was of special significance. Grandpa He was in a good mood and called everyone in the He family back to the ancestral home to burn incense.

This was the first time the old man had come back in more than ten years, and everyone in the He family was quite surprised.

Due to health reasons, Mr. He and his two wives took the train.

Before they set off, He Xu had already left early to ensure that everyone would have a comfortable stay.

But what he didn't expect was that the family that came this time was the Zhang family!

He Xu's face suddenly darkened.

Seeing that the family was blocking the door and not letting anyone in, He Yang smiled and tried to smooth things over: "What's wrong, Third Brother? Why don't you come in?"

Chen Tang shook He Xu's hand vigorously. He Xu came back to his senses and curled his thin lips into a sarcastic smile: "Didn't we only invite our family members to the New Year this year? Why are outsiders here too?"

He Qi couldn't help but lower his head when he heard his sarcastic words.

Because He Zheng was in prison over the years, the old man ignored them, and he got used to spending money lavishly. Later, he spent all the money in the family. With the encouragement of his wife and mother, he gradually got on the right track. During this period, he suffered a lot and was no longer the person who would get angry at a few random words.

"Don't mind, Third Brother. Third Aunt was invited by First Aunt. In the past few years, due to policy reasons, our He family has never acknowledged He Qi, our cousin. Now the policy has changed. After all, she is a member of our He family. It is really unreasonable not to invite her to burn incense.

Besides, why should a family quarrel? You are now a powerful official, so why bother about these things? "

He Xu sneered: "That's great, why don't we take your mother over as well? Hasn't your father been rehabilitated? I heard that there is still a saying about mistresses in Hong Kong City, why don't you let your father give your mother a legitimate status."

He Yang's expression changed instantly.

Ning Suyue, who was behind him, heard what He Xu said and immediately became furious: "What did you say?"

He Xu did not hide anything, and said in a high and steady voice: "I said, biological children are biological children, and those who are not biological children will never be raised well. Look at my stepbrother, he was raised well, but your son is just unteachable, isn't he?"

"You, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart!" Ning Suyue was so angry that her chest heaved violently and she almost fainted.

But He Xu would not let her go. He would make life miserable for anyone who didn't want him to live a good life!

"Fourth Aunt, please don't faint. If you faint, it will make me look so unfilial. It's obviously your son who wants his biological mother to come back. Could it be that I said something wrong?"

"That's enough." He Yang's face was gloomy. "Third brother, if you want to lose your temper, don't take it out on our family. Third aunt's family was not brought up by us. If you want to be angry, go to eldest aunt's family."

He Xu's face was as cold as frost: "In that case, you better shut up, or I will be the first to deal with you!"

He Yang didn't dare to lose his temper in front of the old man. He endured it again and again, his fists clenched and creaked: "Don't be too arrogant. Even if I am not as good as you, grandpa is still here. Have you asked grandpa before you want to do something to me?"

He Xu looked straight at Grandpa He with cold eyes.

Mr. He sighed and pretended to be angry: "He Yang, what do I teach you on weekdays?"

He Yang was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Grandpa!"

"Alright, let's all go inside and talk. Why are you arguing on New Year's Day?"

As soon as Mr. He moved, everyone else followed him in.

There was a stove in the house and the sofa was covered with a thick quilt. To prevent the children from running around, He Xu even wrapped the corners of the table with rubber. The entire yard was decorated beautifully and quaintly, and the pond was surrounded by railings.

Anyone can see how much effort He Xu put in to ensure that everyone can stay here with peace of mind this time.

For a moment, everyone felt a little uncomfortable.

Chen Tang glanced at their expressions and sneered.

Arriving at the living room, He Xu and He Yang sat on the left and right sides of the old man.

Chen Tang glanced at the things on the table, then calmly picked up a fried dough twist and handed it to He Zhi to eat.

He Zhi is grown up now, and smarter than when he was a child. There are some things that she and He Xu will not hide from him, and the little guy will not interrupt. He will just sit beside them and listen in silence every time.
