Chapter 279: True Luxury
The news that Chen Jintao received was not all bad. After more than a month, good news came back from Lowe.
This time, Lowe did not come to China in person, but his assistant did.
He also specially arranged for his assistant to come and see Chen Jintao, who was very satisfied with the report in her hand.
"I am very satisfied with the cooperation with Mr. Lowe this time, but I think we can do even better in the future. I would like to ask you to bring my latest design draft with you when you return. Of course, I have also informed Mr. Lowe in advance."
The fact that Luo Wei allowed the person in front of him to contact him showed that he trusted this person very much. Chen Jintao was not so suspicious, but it was necessary for him to say that at the end.
After all, business competition is very cruel, and it is possible that the people around you will eventually betray you. Chen Jintao certainly will not give all the design drafts to the person in front of him to take back. After all, this is the first time dealing with this person, and Chen Jintao cannot guarantee that this person is completely trustworthy.
The man was obviously very happy, "Ms. Shen, I have heard our husband mention you many times before. There is an old saying in your country, seeing is believing, it is true! After seeing you today, I feel that I was narrow-minded before. I used to think that women could not do anything famous, but I didn't expect you to be so outstanding!"
This man's name is Jason. Luo Wei had mentioned him to Shen Jintao before. He is not only Luo Wei's assistant, but also a designer. I heard that he has designed many good things before.
Lowe also admires this person very much.
Jason did not hide his admiration for Shen Jintao at all. He was not jealous that Shen Jintao was more talented than himself, nor was he jealous. Most of the design drafts used in the company were from Shen Jintao's hand.
"Thank you for the compliment!" Shen Jintao accepted it calmly. She felt that it was not surprising at all to receive such a compliment after working so hard for so long.
"Ms. Shen, all the designers in our company have been studying your design drafts. We found that your ideas are really novel, and you can also put your ideas on paper. This day is really admirable. I thought you must be a professional designer, but I didn't expect that this is not your main job. This is surprising."
Jason didn't understand. This woman in front of him clearly had such talent, why did she want to do other things? According to his idea, since he has such a talent in design, he should continue to work in the design industry and shine in this field!
You know, a great designer also has a high status internationally. However, so far, China has not yet produced a designer with a remarkable international status, whether it is jewelry, clothing or other accessories.
"As you said, design is just my side job, which is equivalent to a hobby. It's actually pretty good that I can turn this hobby into cash. What I'm most interested in is making money, so I'll work in any industry that makes money."
Jason couldn't accept Shen Jintao's answer. "Don't you want your country to have someone who can speak internationally about design? You should know that your country has always been weak in design. In the past few years, I haven't heard of any talent related to this field."
"Mr. Jason, it's obvious that you don't know much about our country. It's not that we don't have excellent designers. On the contrary, our excellent designers are very good. If you are interested, I can even take you to visit. However, the products in our country may be real luxury goods, enough to deter capitalists."
Shen Jintao said very confidently.
Jason obviously didn’t believe what Shen Jintao said, “If you have such excellent works, why don’t you show them?”
Chen Jintao smiled and went straight to Huo Beichuan to borrow Xiao Wu, asking him to take her and Jason to the museum.
This museum actually has a very short history. It was only built gradually in the past two years of reform and opening up, and the things inside were also collected in these two years.
In fact, the collections inside cannot be considered as China's fine products, but Chen Jintao feels that it is enough to open the eyes of foreigners.
When Jason saw what Chinese design was like, he felt that his eyes were not enough.
“Ms. Shen, are these all artificially made?”
Jason pointed in surprise at a double-sided Suzhou embroidery with flowers and birds embroidered on it. There was nothing special about the pattern, but in one word, it was very delicate and people could not take their eyes away.
"Yes, these are Chinese designers, and they all have very strong hands-on skills. I dare say that you can't see such double-sided embroidery in other countries except China. However, this small flower and bird painting can be sold at a sky-high price, not to mention making it into clothes or other things."
"And here, this is a porcelain vase made by our Chinese craftsmen. I think you must have seen something like this before. After all, many countries have taken some precious items from us, and these items are unique."
Chen Jintao spoke of that despicable piece of history with a smile on her face, neither humble nor arrogant.
Jason was a little embarrassed when he heard this, "But now our two countries are already communicating in a friendly manner."
"Yes, that's right!" Chen Jintao agreed with him, "Because our country has become strong, it is not as weak as before. During that period, our country was sick. In fact, looking at the long history of our country, we have always been the overlord of the East! And now we have removed the root cause of the disease, and we will not be bullied easily in the future. Of course, this is all off topic, let's continue to watch!"
"There are many porcelains like this in our country. They not only have a long history but also have their own stories. Each one is unique, which is enough to illustrate their value."
Jason is a fashion designer after all, and what interested him most was the Suzhou embroidery he saw at the beginning. He couldn't imagine how shocking it would be if such embroidery was done on clothes.
"Ms. Shen, I would like to ask how much it would cost to do embroidery like that on clothes?"
Jason finally asked the question that concerned him most.
And Shen Jintao just said lightly, "It's hard to estimate."
