Chapter 115 Chapter 115 Spending Money Day 115 (vl...
In the video, Xinyue is unboxing again, this time it is a black box with a white strap, a very iconic Chanel box.
Xiaowen stared at them intently, and she thought the first few sets of clothes were very beautiful.
This year's autumn and winter ready-to-wear looks pretty good. Although the crescent moon is displayed alone, the black dress and black cape both look very aura.
The blogger's voice can be heard in the video: "These two pieces should be suits. The texture and color design of the clothes are the same. I don't like the buttons of the original one, so I asked the salesperson to replace it with another one. See if this one is more shiny."
Xiaowen said while eating snacks, "I didn't expect that Chanel buttons can be replaced."
Xiaowen thought something was wrong when her colleague didn't respond to her words. But when she turned around to look at her colleague's expression, she realized that she had gone from shock and envy to numbness.
Xiaowen asked: "Is this dress expensive?"
She doesn't know much about luxury goods, but her colleague knows more. Xiaowen feels that her colleague's family is quite wealthy and she comes to work just for fun.
“…It’s not about the price.”
My colleague threw up his hands and said, "That outfit isn't even on the market yet. To be honest, I've only seen the runway pictures and don't know the exact prices for this season's clothes. I was still wondering how I was going to get the clothes I wanted, and now someone else has already got them."
Moreover, the blogger was unwilling to try on these clothes after getting them!
She simply showed the camera details and said, "Originally, I should have added a shot of the effect after trying on the clothes, but I don't want to do it today. I'll do it another day, when I have more time. I have a lot of new clothes and can do another video feature."
My colleague was really envious - this black dress was okay, she felt it was just average, but she really wanted to buy this green knitted butterfly pullover, and she had a feeling it would be snapped up.
She also has to thank the blogger for giving her the opportunity to appreciate the details of the dress up close.
Next, Xinyue opened another particularly large box.
"What kind of clothes needs such a big box... Oh, so it's the bag I bought."
Xiaowen only saw a long string of "pearls". These white balls were made in the shape of pearls. The pearls became larger from top to bottom. It seemed like an enlarged version of a pearl necklace?
However, Xinyue just said that this was a bag, and she actually picked up the string of pearls and carried it across her body.
If you call it a bag, it truly is a bag. The large pearl at the bottom can be opened, and Xinyue showed the interior space to the camera, even comparing it to her own fist, which is not much bigger than a fist.
This is a very impractical decoration, but rich people don’t need to carry a lot of things with them.
Xinyue complained: "Actually, it's called a pearl crossbody bag in the Chanel catalog, but it's called a Sha Seng bag online, which makes sense. There are only wrong names in the world, not wrong nicknames. Oh my god, this really looks like the same pearl necklace as Sha Seng."
Before she said it, Xiaowen hadn't thought about it that way; once she said it, Xiaowen also felt that it seemed to be the case.
She was giggling along with the video, but her colleague told her to stop giggling, saying that this was a product from Chanel's collector's series and cost two hundred thousand.
Xiaowen: ???
Wait, how much? How much is this abstract and impractical Sha Monk bag going for? Two hundred thousand?! It's clearly up for grabs!
“…Luxury goods don’t cheat the poor.”
Xiao Wen murmured, "Two hundred yuan is too expensive for me, and I still have to look for coupons for twenty yuan, or if Pinduoduo has the same product cheaper."
But I have to say, after knowing that this thing was worth 200,000 yuan, Xiaowen couldn't help but like this bag.
This is definitely not abstract, this is art, and it looks so beautiful on the back of the crescent moon.
After unpacking the Chanel box, several express boxes appeared on Xinyue's desk.
"Okay, let's start unpacking the packages now... Let me recall what I bought a while ago."
As she unpacked the package, she showed it to the camera. The post-production editing was very meticulous, with every detail on the delivery note being censored, leaving no frame untouched.
"It's a phone case," she explained to the camera. "Yes, I bought a new phone case. I love changing cases. And since a new phone came out recently, I bought a few extra to stock up on."
"This company's phone cases have a great texture and are quite drop-resistant. They've also gotten a lot of collaborations, which I quite like. To avoid the suspicion of advertising, I won't mention the brand name here. Anyone interested can search for it themselves."
Xinyue displayed several co-branded mobile phone cases, including Line Puppy, Sanrio, Ghikari, and some original brand patterns.
Xiaowen was so attracted by the picture that he took a screenshot and searched for the same item on Taobao.
She had the impression that a phone case cost only a dozen yuan, but she didn't expect that the result of her search was casetify, where a single phone case starts at two or three hundred yuan.
Xiaowen: ...
She knew it! How could she be so self-deprecating as to search for the same items as the rich woman?
It's not her fault that she was wrong, but Xinyue's desktop was too confusing... She bought more than a dozen things worth hundreds of dollars and put them aside so casually, making her think that she could choose any three of them with free shipping for 9.9 yuan.
A colleague nearby said coldly, "Maybe in the eyes of bloggers, there is no essential difference between 9.9 and 299."
Xiaowen wanted to cry after hearing this. She thought she would never have the chance to use the same item as the rich woman in this life. Unexpectedly, the situation took a turn for the better and Xinyue opened a new express delivery.
"What is this thing used for..."
Xinyue looked at the freezer-shaped object for a long time, then remembered: "Oh, this is a refrigerator magnet!"
"The back of it can be stuck to the refrigerator, and this side has food toys, which are toys that look like food. You stick it on the refrigerator and take out various popsicles and drinks from it and pretend that you have eaten. I think it's quite fun."
Xiaowen thought, this must be very expensive too.
But my colleague has already gone to Taobao to identify the image and successfully placed an order. This is really not expensive, the freezer set + food toys + lights and batteries only cost 50 yuan.
...Actually, as a refrigerator magnet, it is quite expensive, but compared with mobile phone cases that cost hundreds of dollars, it seems so cost-effective!
It only costs fifty yuan to own the same product as the rich woman, so Xiaowen placed an order on impulse.
Every style is so beautiful, it’s hard to choose...
Xiaowen hesitated for a long time before finally choosing one. When she switched back to the video, she saw Xinyue taking apart one after another, and one after another...
"I've bought the entire series," she said casually. "I hope the store can research more new styles. Convenience stores won't just have freezers, but also sausage grills, breakfast steamers, and all kinds of shelves... Never mind, I'll just order it custom-made."
Xiaowen: ...
It turns out that decision-making difficulties can be cured, and creative ideas can be realized at any time, but she has no money QAQ
Xiaowen comforted herself that her colleague only bought one.
Although she is far from Xinyue, her colleagues and the vast majority of people in the world are also far from Xinyue. If you round it up, everyone's life is about the same.
There must be someone handing something to Xinyue, and this time it's not a courier box, but a cardboard box.
This black box looked ordinary, but my colleague sat up straight instantly and couldn't help stretching his neck.
Xiaowen: "What is this?"
Before her colleague could answer, Xinyue had already revealed the answer.
She first opened the lid of the box, and inside was another box similar to the shape of a mouse, but much larger than the mice she was used to. When she opened the lid again, Xiaowen saw the watch.
"Hmm... This is the watch I bought a while ago. I finally saw it in stock."
Xinyue showed the details of the watch to the camera: "This is Richard Miller. I quite like this black 0701. I'm trying it on now. It goes well with clothes. It matches the Chanel suit I just unpacked."
Xiaowen was watching the video intently, and her colleagues were a little confused by her unmoved expression.
"You are so calm," said a colleague.
"Ah, what's so special about this watch?" Xiao Wen asked her, "It costs hundreds of thousands too?"
With Chanel's Sha Seng bag as a comparison, she is no longer shocked by the price of any luxury goods.
My colleague paused and said, "0701 is the king of Richard Miller women's watches. This one is black and full of diamonds. The official price is over 2 million. And she actually bought it at the counter. It's quite impressive."
Xiaowen: ...
Well, she admitted that her psychological endurance needed to be improved...
How could a watch worth over two million not deserve a grand opening? Who would have thought it was attached to a fifty-dollar refrigerator magnet?
Refrigerator magnets are really great. If you calculate the average price of the products that appeared in Xinyue’s vlog, they are quite cheap.
Colleagues now completely believe that Xinyue is a blogger who simply shares her life and is not showing off her wealth to create a persona online.
——Because when she tried on Richard Miller, she didn’t even mention the price!
This brand is also considered a top luxury brand, but its public recognition is not as high as Rolex and Patek Philippe. When she meets someone like Xiaowen who doesn't pay attention to luxury goods, she wouldn't feel anything even if they showed off their wealth to her face.
A colleague couldn't help but say, "She actually filmed a video. If she wants to make it more popular, she could summarize the total amount of the unboxing items on the cover and title."
The title used by the blogger is too simple - "Sharing what I bought recently."
If you are not her fan and don’t know her previous style, who would have thought that there would be a Richard Miller worth more than two million in it when seeing the cover of this video!
Colleagues are all worried about Xinyue. Do you know how to show off your wealth? If you don’t know, show it off to me.
Xiao Wen held up his chin and said, "I think Xinyue may not remember."
"That's right, a rich woman wouldn't deliberately create these headlines. After all, she doesn't make a living from the internet."
Xiao Wen corrected: "I mean, she might not even remember the price of these things."
"She said right away that every time she opened a gift box or a package, it was like opening a blind box. She didn't even know what was inside, and she forgot the price, so it was reasonable."
colleague:……
Okay, don’t say anymore, it will hurt your heart if you say more.
She can even forget about something worth millions... Should I say the rich woman is careless, or that she doesn't really care...
Judging from the mentality behind the editing of her videos where luxury goods and ordinary commodities are mixed together, it is most likely the latter.
The two continued reading, and Xinyue shared another interesting thing.
"This is a mobile phone charging bed," she showed everyone in the video. "It's made to look like a bed, just big enough to hold a phone. This side is inductive charging, so you can just put it on. I plan to put this on my bedside table."
"People need a bed to sleep, and so do mobile phones. My phone is with me every day, and I can't treat it badly."
Xiaowen thought what she said made sense, so she opened Taobao and searched for the same item and found that it cost nearly four hundred yuan.
She immediately closed the page and said to her phone, "You can just sleep in the same bed with me. Let's not compare ourselves with other phones."
"If you want to compare, compare performance, compare battery life, compare how smooth and unstuck your phone is. That's what you should think about."
Her colleague looked at her gloomily and said, "Parents have no idea how much IQ their children will inherit. Just like you don't know how much you spent on your cell phone, don't you?"
Xiaowen whimpered and tapped her phone.
Xinyue opened the gift box next. Xiaowen asked her colleagues, "What luxury brand is this?" She did some research to get a sense of the price range for the items that were about to be unveiled.
A colleague looked at it for a while and said, "It's not a brand name. Maybe it was a gift from someone else. Look, it's a piece of clothing... It doesn't look like a ready-made garment from a big brand. The sheen..."
Xinyue has revealed the answer: "The Song brocade I bought some time ago has been made into clothes. The pattern is custom-made, so it took a long time. But because I live in Shenzhen and it's really hot here, even if I receive my summer clothes in August, it's not too late."
She shook her body in front of the camera. This was a beautiful square-neck pink dress. It had puffed tulle sleeves on both sides, and the cuffs were sewn with a circle of Song brocade. The hem was cut in the style of an umbrella skirt, and the waist was very natural in the middle.
This is the dress my colleagues most wanted to see Xinyue try on, but unfortunately, the blogger didn’t mean to.
She felt even more regretful when she heard the pattern was custom-made. It was obvious that the production method of this piece of Song brocade must be more complicated than commercial Song brocade. No wonder it maximized the brilliance of Song brocade without appearing too bright or tacky.
Xinyue has a good aesthetic, and her colleagues agree that pink is the most beautiful way to wear Song brocade. This brocade is naturally bright and lively, so there's no need to compensate for its shortcomings. Instead, it's about maximizing its strengths and making you stand out in the crowd.
She also displayed several Song brocade bags, Song brocade bow ties and other products, some of which were made from scraps of the skirt, and some were specially ordered from another piece of brocade.
For example, she has two ocelot-themed bags. One is covered with ocelot patterns, making the cat look cute; the other is leopard print, which Xinyue said is the pattern of her cat.
Song brocade could actually be made into this style? My colleagues were also amazed. As expected, as long as you have money, there is nothing you can't do.
Xinyue must really love her cat. Not only did she customize a Song brocade pattern, but several large items that she unpacked afterwards were also cat beds.
There are rattan mushroom cat beds, sisal coffee cup cat beds, 3D oil painting frame three-dimensional cat beds, canned fish cat boxes and scratching posts, and simulated banana cat beds...
My colleague couldn't help but ask, "How many cats does she have at home? Is she a pet breeder?"
"Just one," Xiaowen said. "It's the Bengal cat we just saw, the one with the Song Brocade pattern. The blogger is so kind to it. Sometimes I think, if I could travel through time and space and become that cat, how happy I would be for the rest of my life."
My colleague was almost shocked: "Just one cat, do you need so many cat beds?"
She hadn't counted them just now, but if she recalled them, she could come up with seven or eight. She could easily say that the cat beds sold in pet stores probably didn't have the full range of styles that Xinyue had at home.
"It's not that the cat uses so many, it's that she bought so many more."
Xiaowen corrected him again, "She already has multiple cat beds at home. You know that incredibly expensive LV cat bed? She has one at home. Her cat also particularly likes the Hermès pet tent. She's truly blessed."
Colleague: "...Can her house hold so many cat beds?"
"Oh, there should be a storage room in the villa."
Xiao Wen stuffed a potato chip into his mouth: "This is not something we should worry about. Besides, I remember she bought a villa specifically for the cat."
My colleagues were stunned. What did you say?
Buy a villa for a cat?
This is all Chinese, and she can understand every word, but why does the combination sound so unfamiliar?
Xiaowen: "You haven't followed her before, so you don't know. The blogger bought a villa and transformed it into a cat paradise. She also posted on Xiaohongshu and asked other cat owners if they had any suggestions."
It's so funny. There is no serious advice in her comment section. It's all about asking the blogger if he is interested in raising bipeds or upright apes besides cats.
Some people even wanted to be reborn into a cat's belly and become the blogger's second-generation kitten, but unfortunately her cat had been sterilized a long time ago.
My colleague subconsciously sighed, "Really? That's such a pity..."
——No, why should she feel regretful? She is still living a better life than the cat!
After unpacking these oversized cat bed deliveries that took up a lot of space, Xinyue took another gift box.
This gift box is very recognizable. The white box is tied with a green ribbon and printed with "Van Cleef & Arpels".
Xinyue first opened two small ones, the first one was a butterfly ring.
As soon as the gift box was opened, my colleague knew it was a high-end bead because it was so sparkly. The white diamond butterfly shimmered with seven colors of light, and the sapphire butterfly next to it seemed to have a galaxy flowing inside.
Xiaowen was also completely immersed in the beauty of the jewelry. This double butterfly ring captured all her attention. Unfortunately, Xinyue just tried it on briefly and didn't mention the price.
Alas, that’s what happens when rich women have bad memories. She doesn’t even have the chance to open her eyes and learn more about this.
Xiaowen could only ask for help from his colleagues, but his colleagues did not know the specific price of each type of high-bead.
"About a hundred, or two million? It's so beautifully cut, the square shape has such sparkle."
Maybe Xinyue liked butterflies very much during that period, and the next jewelry to appear also had butterfly elements.
This is a butterfly bracelet. This time my colleague can call out its correct name: "flying butterfly." She tried it on in a store in Hong Kong.
Xiaowen was curious: "Did you buy it?"
"You think too highly of me," sighed the colleague. "These three butterflies cost one and a half million."
It was beautiful. It looked stunning and lifelike in the video, and even more stunning in person. When she put it on, she felt like the fragrant concubine, a butterfly-attracting concubine. The dreamy, romantic feeling of being at the center of the world stage enveloped her, leaving her completely captivated.
What Gaozhu sells is not the jewelry itself, but the emotional value.
She tried it on for a long time and was reluctant to take it off, but dreams must come to an end.
If she could buy this butterfly bracelet, she would definitely remember it for the rest of her life. She would not forget how excited she was when she paid for it, and would shoot a whole video, no, several videos to commemorate her feelings, instead of just showing it briefly like Xinyue did, then putting it aside and letting her assistant take it away.
The gap between people...is indeed too big.
The colleague sighed softly and finally waited for Xinyue to open the biggest box.
"I've been waiting for this necklace for a long time, and it's finally done."
Xinyue said in the video, "Let me show you, there are two sapphires underneath, which can be removed and used as earrings. However, I don't have pierced ears, and I don't like wearing converters because they are too heavy, so I won't show you."
The colleague stared at the screen without blinking, and Xiaowen even needed to remind her that she could breathe.
Xiaowen no longer planned to ask how much it cost. Judging from her colleague's expression, it must be a price she couldn't imagine.
"This sapphire is so beautiful," Xiaowen said. "Xinyue likes blue the most, but I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I always think the sapphires she sends are prettier than others."
My colleague came to his senses and said, "It's not a psychological effect. The grade and origin of sapphires are actually different."
"Look carefully, these two sapphires must be from Kashmir. This high-quality velvety feeling is irreplaceable by other sapphires."
And the design of her necklace, the diamonds are so hard, but the bow ribbon feels so soft. If this is not considered exquisite, she doesn't know what kind of technology is worthy of this idiom.
"This is worth putting in the cabinet and keeping as a treasure..." murmured the colleague.
When asked what kind of occasions people would wear it on, her first thought was actually weddings, children’s full-month celebrations, parents’ birthdays, and other very grand and formal occasions.
She didn't know the exact price of the necklace, but based on the raw materials and craftsmanship, it must be in the tens of millions, no less.
"Yeah." Xiao Wen nodded, "Xinyue has a small museum at home."
Museum, home, what a strange combination.
Before my colleague had time to complain about this, he heard a cat's meow in the video, and Xinyue's cat appeared in the camera.
"Hey, little darling, why are you here? Did you see the twinkle?"
Even though Xinyue's voice was processed, it could be heard that she couldn't help but pick it up when talking to the kitten. Xiaowen and his colleagues smiled, which was also human nature.
But soon, they couldn't laugh anymore.
They paused the video and admired it over and over again, admiring every frame of the necklace, which Xinyue casually put on the kitten's neck.
"Wow, it looks pretty good on you. Why are you shaking your head? Is it too heavy? Don't worry, don't worry, I'll take it off for you."
The kitten doesn’t like to wear it, it only likes to scratch it. My colleagues want to scream when they see it. Please take the necklace away quickly, or take the cat away quickly!
——Xinyue did take the cat away, but she was obviously more concerned about the kitten's claws than the necklace.
Diamonds are very hard and cannot be removed by picking. Be careful not to break your nails, as it will hurt.
My colleagues were so tired that they had nothing to say.
How could she have thought she was better off than the kitten? Where did she get such confidence and illusion?
It seemed that all the luxury gift boxes had been unpacked, and Xinyue would basically unpack the express deliveries next.
I can only say that this video really fits its title. There is no main line, no classification, and no focus. It is a completely blind box unboxing.
In front are tens of millions of high-end beads, and in the next section are various kitchen utensils and water cups.
Xinyue unpacked a rainbow of pots and pans, saying she wanted to transform her small kitchen into a dopamine-themed space. This was the theme for this month. She's still thinking about next month's theme, tentatively McDonald's, but she might need to customize some kitchenware to make the area full of McDonald's.
Her colleagues thought she was being modest. After all, she looked so rich, so her kitchen must be super big, how could it be a "small kitchen"?
This was her misunderstanding. In fact, Liu Yue did not use the wrong word.
Her family has two large kitchens on the first floor, one Chinese and one Western. The small kitchen she's talking about is the one on the third floor. Sometimes when she wants dessert or a midnight snack but is too lazy to go downstairs, the chef will make her a simple meal on the third floor.
The small kitchen over there is an integrated kitchen and dining design, and Liu Yue occasionally cooks there.
When she has nothing to do, she will intermittently ignite her passion for cooking, so the small kitchen is well equipped with cooking utensils. She also often adjusts the decoration style and comes up with some new ideas from time to time.
If the color matching of her kitchenware is bold and fairy-tale-like, then her water cup is really abstract.
Xiaowen and the others saw the cup with funny expressions, but that was not the biggest deal. Next on the scene were the salt-baked chicken cup and the SLR lens cup, which made it difficult for them not to doubt their own eyes and wonder what they were seeing.
Especially the salt-baked chicken water cup - it really looks like a chicken! The chicken head and chicken wings, from a distance you could mistake it for a dish.
I knew that Cantonese people love to eat chicken, but I didn’t expect they love it so much.
The rich woman’s hobbies are really too abstract.
Xinyue seemed to like it very much. From her tone and the length of the video introducing the cup, it was obvious that she liked the salt-baked chicken cup more than the tens of millions of high-end beads just now.
She even had a larger cup, or rather, a jar? Or a basin, custom-made for her soup, which she would place at the center of the New Year's Eve dinner.
Xiaowen: ...
How should I put it, the rich woman's mental state is really beautiful...but why is she inexplicably attracted to him...
Oh no, she really wants to buy every abstract cup that Xinyue recommends!
The most important thing is that this salt-baked chicken water cup only costs 16.8, she can really afford it!
Xinyue has indeed bought a lot of cups recently, and the next delivery is also a cup, but this one is packaged more tightly and feels much more formal.
Compared with the abstract contestants mentioned above, this crystal cup is extremely beautiful. Xiaowen fell in love with it at first sight.
A colleague reminded her: "This is a KAGAMI star-shaped cup, it costs several thousand yuan."
Even though she bought several at once... she's a wealthy woman! Don't let the sheer quantity of her purchases fool you into losing your appreciation for the value of these things!
Well, this is another cup that Xiaowen can look at but cannot afford.
Wow, she thought the luxury goods part was over...
The following are indeed Xinyue’s recent shopping sharing. She bought a hamburger storage stool, a strawberry storage jar, various simulated food blankets, and a pigeon sensor hand washing machine.
Put your hand behind the pigeon's butt and a ball of foam will be squeezed out for washing your hands.
The usage is simple, but the position, the color, and the expression of the pigeon... always give people a feeling that it cannot be washed clean!
When she opened a package, Xinyue became excited and solemnly introduced it to the camera:
"This is my favorite thing recently, and the thing that impressed me the most. Can you guess what it is?"
Xiaowen thought quickly and decided that judging from the packaging, it was definitely not a luxury item, nor was it expensive. After all, in a rich woman's way of thinking, the price was not equal to the value, and the best thing was what could make her happy.
However, what is the product that can surpass so many other things, impress Xinyue so much that she even pays extra money to ask the seller to ship it by SF Express? What is so attractive?
She thought and thought, but she could never imagine that this would be an ordinary T-shirt.
No, it's not that ordinary - it has a picture of Ah Dai, the character with a runny nose from the cartoon "Crayon Shin-chan".
Xinyue: "Look, this Ah Dai's head is three-dimensional. There is space here, and there is a hole on the nose... Smart friends, do you know what I am going to say next?"
She stuffed a pack of tissues in and then took it out through the hole.
"This is so fun!" she said excitedly. "If you wear this, you won't have to worry about forgetting to bring tissues when you go out! Isn't it amazing? Of course, this dress is really abstract. If you have a boyfriend, you can let him wear it so you don't have to worry about embarrassing yourself."
Xiaowen was stunned and couldn't help but retreat tactically.
No, this thing beat out Chanel, Hermès, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Richard Miller to become the favorite of the rich woman? She even feels sorry for these luxury goods!
The hobbies of rich people are indeed difficult for ordinary people to understand...
