Chapter 666: Action is worse than intention
Shaoan saw this and quickly said, "Sister, do you know the fashion designer in Hong Kong?"
Shang Ruonan only had a superficial understanding of the matter, and was obviously embarrassed when Shaoan asked her this question.
"I just heard about it."
"Big sister is right. In Hong Kong, fashion designers are indeed paid very well. Not only that, they are also very respected."
Chen Shurong has lived in Hong Kong for so many years, so she naturally knows the situation of fashion designers.
Not only that, she herself also liked this industry very much. When she was locked up in the villa, she often asked her servants to go out and buy some books of this kind and she studied by herself.
Nowadays, although she is not as good as those professional designers in clothing design, she can still be considered presentable.
Just as Chen Shurong was thinking about this, Shaoan looked at her with bright eyes.
"Mom, I like fashion design because of you. I've been watching you play with fabrics since I was a kid, and that's how I got interested in fashion design."
Chen Shurong laughed, and the scene of Shaoan watching her make clothes seriously appeared in her mind.
"Yes, when I was making clothes, as long as you were at home, you would come over to help. I just thought you were bored and wanted to find something to do, but I didn't expect that you would be interested in fashion design."
"Hehe...back then, my mom must have thought I was a boy and wouldn't like this line of work."
Seeing Shaoan returning to his original ruffian look again, Chen Shurong shook her head helplessly.
Her little son would give her a "big surprise" from time to time.
The atmosphere at the dinner table became relaxed again, and Mrs. Shang quickly asked everyone to continue eating.
At this time, Shang Ruoting seemed to be thinking about something.
She was a person who couldn't hide things. After dinner, she returned to the courtyard and pulled Chen Shurong into the room.
There were only mother and daughter in the room.
"Mom, have you ever thought about what to do?" Shang Ruoting had seen Chen Shurong's craftsmanship in making clothes with her own eyes. She felt it would be a pity if this skill was buried.
Of course Chen Shurong wanted to do something of her own, but she didn't understand why her daughter asked this.
"Tingting, of course Mom wants to do something."
Seeing this, Shang Ruoting directly stated her thoughts.
"Mom, since Shaoan is going to study fashion design, and you have such good skills, why don't you open a clothing store to test the waters first."
"Test the waters?" Chen Shurong understood the meaning of these three words, but she didn't think opening a clothing store was a good business.
Shang Ruoting knew that Chen Shurong, like Shang Lifeng, still had some understanding of the mainland that was limited to twenty years ago.
"Mom, if you believe in my vision, opening a clothing store now will definitely help us seize the first-mover advantage in the clothing market.
Apart from anything else, you have also seen the business of Ping An Hotel, right?
What does this indicate?
This shows that although not everyone in our mainland is rich, there are still some wealthy people. Once people have money, they will pursue more things. The clothing styles currently sold in state-owned stores and some small vendors certainly cannot meet their needs.
You can open a clothing store at this time. In addition to selling some goods imported from there, you can also design a series of popular clothing styles by yourself and find factories for processing cooperation. It is hard not to make money with such a business.
If you succeed, not only will you make money, but you can also lay the foundation for Shaoan's future development. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
The more Chen Shurong listened, the more excited she became. She really didn't know what was going on in her daughter's head. How could she see the problem so clearly?
"Tingting, Mom is really moved."
"It's better to act than to think. Now that you have an idea, just do as I said to Shaoan and get started with it." Shang Ruoting added fuel to the fire again, hoping that Chen Shurong could make up her mind completely.
Chen Shurong thought for a moment and said, "Your father gave me all the money earned from the Grand An Hotel. I have 15,000 yuan now. I wonder if this is enough for the capital?"
Shang Ruoting knew that Chen Shurong had accepted her suggestion.
"Mom, if you don't buy a shop, the initial renovation and stocking should be almost done. If it's not enough, I still have some money and I can lend it to you first."
Chen Shurong doesn't want to borrow money from her daughter anymore.
"No, Mom will discuss this with your dad. If he agrees, I plan to use the money I have to start a business."
Shang Ruoting had just calculated in her mind that the capital Chen Shurong had was enough as long as she didn't open a clothing store that was too large, so she didn't mention borrowing money anymore.
"Okay, this weekend, I'll go out with Mom to look at shops, and we'll discuss the details later."
"Well, that's settled."
