"Profound and elegant"?
Copycat? Pirated?
Jian Jianan was filled with questions when she heard the news. She had been mentally prepared for this because in this era when intellectual property rights were not yet fully developed, a person's various inventions and creations were largely unprotected.
This means that even if someone copies your work, you won't be able to take any action.
What's more, commodities are profit-oriented, which means that as long as a commodity can earn enough profit, it will become the target of public criticism and become something that most people want to pursue.
Jian Jianan lowered her eyes and looked at the content on the BP machine. This was a message from her father.
Jian Yangping kept his promise. If there were any important changes at Shenya Clothing Store, or if he felt it was worth telling Jian Jianan, he would notify her via pager. However, before, it was always good news; this was the first time Jian Jianan had received such bad news.
"There are so many pirated Shen Ya products on the market that we are overwhelmed. Pirated clothes have caused us some losses. Dad is busy dealing with this kind of thing, so we may not be communicating much during this period. Don't worry, Nan Nan."
Jian Jianan lowered his eyes and began to think from the other person's perspective, wondering how he would react if he were faced with this situation.
Pirated clothes, as the name suggests, are definitely based on the Shen Ya clothing store. Other versions of clothes derived from this model may be exactly the same as Shen Ya clothes in style, color and design, but they will definitely not be able to win in terms of quality.
Jian Jianan still remembers how her father, Jian Yangping, spent three days running around the surrounding villages looking for a piece of fabric suitable for making a collar. He also spent an entire afternoon at the clothing market looking for a tortoise shell button suitable for sewing on the outside of a black coat. If he couldn't find it in one day, he would come again the next day.
Anyway, everything is just about pursuing perfection. If there is room for improvement, we will continue to improve it. The clothes will not be put on the market before they are completed. Jian Yangping is determined to make the best clothes for everyone, so he will not be sloppy. Clothes that do not meet the quality standards will not be put on the shelves.
But it's different for pirates. Jian Jianan thought about it carefully. Pirates can buy Shen Ya's clothes, cut them open and carefully observe the cutting and mending inside, and learn the cutting and mending techniques. This is not difficult. With an experienced tailor with more than ten years of experience, they can learn it all just by touching and watching.
But as for other aspects, Jian Yangping searched so many markets to find the best raw materials, and there are so many creative designs in sister Deng Bitong's mind. Jian Jianan believes that these aspects cannot be replicated by pirated clothes.
This means that at least in terms of quality, pirated clothes are far inferior to Shen Ya. As long as the two are distinguished, there is still room for solution.
"Nannan! What are you daydreaming about? Come here quickly, I've found a seat, come with me and sit down to eat together!" When Jian Jianan heard the call, he looked over and found that it was Duan who was calling him.
She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come now!"
Since Dad kept his promise, Jian Jianan must also keep his promise.
At least most of the time in school has to be spent as a student. She has to abide by the duties of a student. She walked quickly towards the paragraph and was about to enjoy the next lunch.
Jian Jianan thought happily that she would be able to go home in one day anyway, so she would go back home to see what the problem was. She thought the problem must not be serious. She still had great trust in Jian Yangping and Deng Bitong.
After waiting for a long time, Saturday finally came and it was time for Jian Jianan to go home. She asked the driver to drive directly to Shen Ya Clothing Store in Shekou to find Deng Bitong.
Deng Bitong is indeed a career-oriented woman as she herself said. Since she resigned from Dada Toy Factory, she has devoted herself to designing more beautiful clothes for Shen Ya Clothing Store.
Moreover, this person is extraordinarily thick-skinned, or, as she herself said, has a big heart. Sometimes when Deng Bitong meets her former colleagues and leaders in the store who come to buy clothes, she doesn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she will go up to them with a smile and make recommendations as if she were receiving any ordinary customer.
Even when Deng Bitong happened to meet the director who insisted on expelling people like her who were restless and unruly, the smile on her face never faded.
Deng Bitong not only greeted the director with a smile, but also provided attentive service. She picked out a perfect suit for the director who needed to attend a meeting at a higher-level department on official business.
Perhaps it was because of this battle suit that the meeting ended very smoothly and the director's career prospects were very bright.
This made the director feel quite embarrassed. After returning home, she had a heart-to-heart talk with her husband: "Hey, do you still remember that Comrade Deng Bitong I told you about? The one who loved new clothes and changed into a new outfit almost every day?"
"She's now quitting the factory and working in the clothing store right outside the factory. From what I've seen, she seems very happy, not sad at all. It's like she's taken off a huge burden, feeling relaxed and doing what she enjoys. Maybe being reported is actually a good thing for her!"
But what she didn't know was that after Deng Bitong sold the suit that day, she proudly boasted to Jian Jianan, "Hey, I finally sold our treasured treasure. This suit is so expensive and old-fashioned, which girl would buy it? It's been hanging in our store for months and no one is interested. But today, I finally found a suitable owner for it."
Jian Jianan found it funny. Deng Bitong was a vindictive person. When she was in the factory, the director had always disliked her because she was too outstanding. This was one of the direct reasons for her resignation. Deng Bitong was not the kind of person who would repay kindness with grievances. How could she treat the director wholeheartedly just because she resigned? It was impossible for her not to lose her temper.
However, she is a sensible person. She is not a big-minded person, but she has a lot of small-minded people, so she can't cause any trouble.
As expected, Deng Bitong's next words were: "Actually, I didn't really give her a hard time, did I? A younger girl wouldn't be able to pull off this suit given her age and experience. It's expensive, but it suits the director perfectly. After all, what suits you best is what suits you! I didn't deliberately tease her by picking something that doesn't suit her!"
Jian Jianan smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, you are right!"
Fortunately, the director didn’t know Deng Bitong’s psychological activities, otherwise she would not have said the above words.
But now, all the laughter, anger and scolding in the past have become articles. Deng Bitong, who has experienced all the ups and downs in the world, is now leaning against the side of the store, with a sorrow that cannot be concealed on her face.
It was obvious that she was worried about something. The most powerful evidence was that she was absent-minded. She didn't react at all until Jian Jianan was about to walk in front of her.
"Sister Tongtong!" It was Jian Jianan who finally greeted her, and Deng Bitong only then noticed this person's presence.
She also greeted Jian Jianan with a smile: "Nannan, you're back! School is on vacation, right?" Although she was smiling continuously, the expression on her face looked forced.
Jian Jianan frowned: "Sister Tongtong, are you feeling unwell today? Are you feeling unwell somewhere? Otherwise, you should ask for leave and go home to rest!"
Deng Bitong has now been freed from her original job of selling clothes. She now works as a designer. Her work has changed and she doesn't need to come to the store every day to look after things.
But Deng Bitong feels that she draws inspiration from people's clothes, which means that once she is not exposed to these daily lives, she will lose her inspiration and her design work will be like a castle in the air.
So, she insisted on visiting the store when she had no design work to see if she could get any inspiration.
Jian Jianan originally thought that it would be the same today, so he wanted to persuade Deng Bitong to go back.
Unexpectedly, Deng Bitong still had a sad look on her face. She leaned on the doorstep, took out a handkerchief from one of her pockets, and started wiping her tears.
While wiping her tears, she continued to complain miserably to Jian Jianan: "Nannan, you just came back from school and you might not know, but in the past few days, our Shen Ya clothes have suddenly become popular in the market. Of course, they are not Shen Ya brand, they just used our name to sell fake products! But, by doing this, all our hard work has been wasted!"
Jian Jianan consoled him, "That's true, but our clothes have already gained a reputation, so this result is obvious. From what I've observed, when there's a hot commodity on the market, everyone flocks to it. If barbecue makes money, everyone will rush out to sell barbecue. Next month, if water guns become trendy, everyone will rush out to sell water guns. Our clothes had such high sales and a good reputation a while ago, so many people knew about our brand. That's why pirated clothing has room to survive."
Deng Bitong gradually stopped crying and listened to Jian Jianan continue: "This may be the most difficult time for us now, but after the night there will always be day. We just need to hold on at this time and never give up. We will definitely achieve the final victory. Sister Tongtong, you just continue to draw inspiration and strive to design more beautiful clothes for Shen Ya Clothing in the next issue. As for solving the problem of pirated clothes, leave it to me and Dad!"
Deng Bitong nodded and agreed.
Seeing that she had returned to her original state, Jian Jianan smiled and asked about the business, "Sister Tongtong, how did you know about the piracy? Did my father tell you about it?"
Deng Bitong shook her head, looking bewildered. "No, it was someone who came to us with clothes she bought from somewhere and asked for an explanation. That's how I learned there were so many pirated copies of our clothes on the market."
What? There's such a thing!
Jian Jianan frowned and asked her, "What about the clothes? The pirated clothes she brought over. Did you keep them?"
Deng Bitong was stunned by Jian Jianan's question. Her eyes widened, like a cat's. She said in disbelief, "What are you talking about? I knew at first glance that those pirated clothes she brought were fake and shoddy. First of all, the fabric feels very low quality, and it's the kind of fabric I wouldn't wear even a few years ago. Secondly, the cut of the clothes. It's obvious that she tried very hard to imitate our tailoring methods, but she ended up trying to imitate ours. It just doesn't have that flavor."
"Our unique tailoring method is first of all thanks to the books your father brought back from Hong Kong. The books contain detailed records of how to cut correctly. If they want to learn, there is no place to learn. They can only buy our clothes and take them apart one by one to look at them. But how can this work? It is definitely impossible for them to reproduce them exactly the same!"
Jian Jianan grasped the key point: "So, Sister Tongtong, you didn't keep any of those pirated clothes?"
Deng Bitong: "Of course I didn't stay. I explained to them in a nice and gentle manner that this dress was definitely not ours, but no one believed me! I finally took a dress of the same style and put it in front of them, and argued with them one by one before they believed me. I was really praying that they left after I explained it to them. You don't know, some people not only knew they were deceived and bought counterfeit products from other places, but they didn't reflect on themselves at all. Instead, they brought their pirated clothes to us for compensation! They said that if we didn't compensate them for the money they spent on the clothes, they would stand at the door of our store and refuse to leave!"
Deng Bitong rolled her eyes. "Do you think I can make them like a shadow? Of course not. I thought, since you don't want to leave, why don't you just stand here and act as a living signboard for us to attract customers?"
Deng Bitong is a hot-tempered person. She knows how to deal with evil. Some people want to act like a spoiled child and threaten to stand in front of their store and affect business in order to get the return or exchange of clothes.
Deng Bitong just didn't indulge them. "You said you wanted to stand in front of our shop?" she replied, "Okay, very good." She was very welcoming.
Deng Bitong immediately stood at the store entrance, pulling at the counterfeit Shen Ya brand clothes they had bought and yelling, "Come and look, look at these Shen Ya clothes you bought elsewhere! Feel the material and see the quality. These unscrupulous merchants should be thrown in jail for only thinking about ripping people out of their money!"
Deng Bitong's impassioned words not only prevented this group of threatening people from becoming an obstacle to their store, but also indirectly highlighted the excellent quality of Shen Ya's clothes.
Someone immediately touched two different clothes and exclaimed in surprise: "Oh, this is really good! If I hadn't touched your clothes before, I would have thought theirs were already good!"
The second person who tried it echoed her, "Yeah, yeah, I think so too. They look exactly the same, but once you hold them in your hands you'll realize the material is completely different. If they look so different, they're bound to feel even more different on you!"
She should not be tempted to buy cheap "Life" and just buy it in this store. After all, the original one is better than the counterfeit one!
As soon as this incident came out, those people who had originally threatened but bought the fake Shen Ya suddenly felt embarrassed. They were ashamed to be used as a typical counterexample by Deng Bitong, and left in disgrace.
After listening to Deng Bitong's retelling, Jian Jianan felt that something was amiss. "Sister Tongtong," she said hesitantly, "is this... isn't this a bit bad?"
In Jian Jianan's opinion, these people were also victims who accidentally bought pirated clothes. They did nothing wrong. Is it necessary to treat them like criminals?
Deng Bitong immediately began to teach Jian Jianan a lesson earnestly: "Nannan, you can't be too gentle like this. You don't know the character of these people. They will take advantage of the situation. If you show a little sympathy and give in, they will immediately become more demanding and make demands that are even more excessive than just returning or exchanging clothes. Returning or exchanging one piece is already considered good, and there are even some who want you to give them one piece for free!"
After Deng Bitong finished her long speech, she thought for a moment and felt it wasn't enough. "Let me tell you, Nannan, you're just too naive. You're kindhearted, but you can't stand seeing others suffer. But in the business world, this won't work. I know it's not their fault that they bought pirated clothes. In fact, if you trace it back to the source, the culprits are those counterfeit manufacturers who produce fake clothes. These victimized consumers simply don't know how to distinguish. Some people may even buy from places they think are cheaper, so they get deceived."
"But this matter cannot be left unresolved. Once opened, it cannot be closed again. Therefore, the most urgent task is to find a way to resolve this matter and prevent other clothing manufacturers from copying our clothes. Otherwise, more and more victims will come to us and ask for an explanation."
Deng Bitong has always felt that she is not a patient person, but she is willing to say so much to Jian Jianan now. In addition to the fact that she feels that she and Jian Jianan are very compatible and that Jian Jianan is the mentor who discovered her and gave her this opportunity for cooperation, there is another reason that is a bit difficult to say.
This has to do with practical interests. Although Jian Yangping is only in the initial stages of his business, Deng Bitong believes in her own judgment of people. Given Jian Yangping's eye for clothing and his talent for business development, Shenya Clothing Store will definitely not stop at just this one brick-and-mortar store. It will definitely develop better and better in the future. If she keeps following along, wouldn't her own development also improve?
Under such circumstances, it is particularly important to hold on to the future heir Jian Jianan.
Although Deng Bitong knew that Jian Yangping had a daughter named Jian Jianan and a son named Jian Jiabei, comparison would only hurt. Look at his daughter Jian Jianan, who was so interested in his own business, actively expanding sales channels in many unseen places, and often had a flash of inspiration and could come up with some useful strategies. Then look at his son, who did nothing but eat and sleep, oh no, this is not accurate, who did nothing but eat and sleep and go out to play ball. Anyone with a discerning eye would know which child was more suitable to be the successor!
Jian Jianan knew that Deng Bitong was being kind and trying to teach him life lessons, so he didn't say anything to refute her. He smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Sister Tongtong. Actually, I understand. If it's not our fault, of course we shouldn't admit it. But, sometimes I feel that as a clothing store, they bought pirated clothes out of love and trust in our clothes. Based on this, I think we have the responsibility and obligation to make some changes. At the very least, we should have corresponding preventive measures to prevent people from being deceived so easily."
Deng Bitong agreed wholeheartedly with this statement. She nodded and said, "You are right. We need to make some changes." But she was just a weak and helpless little designer who could only draw some clothes. She couldn't do anything else except drawing clothing designs. It would be better to leave these changes to Jian Yangping and Jian Jianan!
Jian Jianan nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that the next challenge facing their Shen Ya brand clothing would be to solve the problem of piracy and counterfeiting.
Jian Jianan didn't think this was a chore at all. On the contrary, she smiled brightly and was eager to try, as if this challenge on the road to growth was a rare good thing for her. She felt happy when she saw problems and challenges!
Deng Bitong felt a chill in her heart. Oh, it seems that being an heir is really not easy, and not everyone can be one. At least with Jian Jianan's personality, even if she reincarnates eight or ten times, she will not be able to grow up to be a person like Jian Jianan.
Initially, Jian Jianan was very disappointed when she heard Deng Bitong's words and realized that there were no pirated clothes here for her to try out for herself. Although Deng Bitong had described the difference between the two in detail, she still needed to practice to know the real difference.
But what Jian Jianan didn't know was that the opportunity she wanted to put into practice would come so soon.
Jian Jianan went to Shenghuo Clothing Store in the morning. Everything was normal except the problem of counterfeiting. Moreover, with a great person like Deng Bitong in charge of the store, the problem of counterfeiting and piracy did not have a very big impact on the store.
So Jian Jianan decided to go to the Friendship Store in the afternoon. However, she did not forget that her family's clothes were still in the probation period in the Friendship Store. Only after the three-month probation period was over could they truly gain a foothold in the Friendship Store and have their own store.
However, what was unexpected was that Jian Jianan, who was still harboring infinite beautiful expectations for the future, heard quarrels and noises coming from the clothing store on the first floor at the door before he even walked into the Friendship Store.
The sound was very loud, and Jian Jianan vaguely heard a few sentences such as "suffer a loss", "career", and "bought a fake" from the people gathered at the door.
Jian Jianan knew almost immediately that something was wrong. What he feared had come true. Could it be that someone had bought pirated clothes and was now causing a scene in the Friendship Store?
She desperately pushed her way through the crowd and entered the first floor. As expected, the topic of the dispute among the group was exactly about their Shen Ya clothes.
As soon as Jian Jianan entered, he saw an elderly woman holding a piece of "Life" brand clothing that she had bought from somewhere, and she was questioning the saleswoman in front of her in an uncontrolled manner.
"Speak up, speak up! How could this not be yours? I bought it somewhere else, but the label clearly states it's yours. If it has quality issues, can't I exchange it? And I'm not returning it for no reason. It's because of poor quality. There's such a big hole here, can't you see? I spent dozens of dollars on it, and now it's torn. How can I wear torn clothes?"
The saleswoman she was dealing with kindly said to the woman, "Sister, we're not saying we won't exchange or refund you, nor are we shirking responsibility. The truth is, the dress you're holding isn't made by us, and I don't know where you bought it. Maybe someone impersonated us and deceived you, leading to this huge misunderstanding between us."
The saleswoman was almost in tears. Although she had seen many strange and various customers since she came to the Friendship Store as a salesperson, this was the first time she had met such a difficult customer.
Moreover, the saleswoman found it very difficult to communicate with the older woman across from her. No, it should be said that communication was impossible at all. The two of them kept repeating the same thing over and over again, but she still didn't seem to understand at all. Just take that conversation, for example, it had happened countless times between these two people.
"Impossible! It can't be from someone else. I bought it from you, how could it be from someone else? I checked it out, and it's just bad quality. You know it's bad quality, and you saw that I was being stubborn and came to you to return it, so you're refusing to admit it!"
It comes again and again, the saleswoman thought helplessly in her heart, she seemed to have just gone through this cycle, how come it came again in less than a minute.
But there is no way, customers are God. During the few days of pre-job training when she first started working in the mall, the person in charge reminded her of this every day. He must have said it a hundred or eighty times a day before he felt at ease.
Besides, one of the major selling points of the Friendship Store is its good service attitude. No matter what, she can't ruin her own reputation.
The girl could only continue to explain to the aunt in a gentle voice: "Sister, didn't I just tell you that this dress looks like it's from the Shen Ya brand, but that's all a lie from the seller. It's not a Shen Ya brand dress at all!"
The aunt's first reaction was disbelief. "How is that possible? It's not Shen Ya's clothes, but they're so expensive. Aren't they just ripping me off?"
Jian Jianan couldn't stand it any longer. She had just stood outside the crowd and had probably figured out the whole story of their dispute. From what she heard, it seemed that the counterfeit clothes were the cause of the trouble.
Really, just a few hours ago she was still complaining to Sister Tongtong why she didn’t give her a chance to try out the pirated clothes herself and see how bad the quality was. Look, isn’t this opportunity here now?
"Hey, please make way, please make way, please, excuse me."
Jian Jianan felt that this was not going to work and she had to show up in person, so she squeezed into the crowd of onlookers while saying sorry.
The older woman saw a little girl, despite all odds, come to her side. She thought she was someone who wanted to get closer and watch the fun. She immediately felt disgusted with these busybodies and asked her in a loud voice, "You, what are you doing here?"
Fortunately, with Jian Jianan sharing the firepower, the elder sister was able to shift the target of concentrated fire, and the saleswoman sister also immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Jian Jianan smiled brightly: "As for me, I'm here to help you with the after-sales service of this dress."
The elder sister said: "Who are you to speak so arrogantly? You look like you are still in school and not yet an adult. You look quite young and so small, yet you say that you can decide these things? I think you should stop talking nonsense and being so shameless. Little girl, since you are a student, you should go back to school and study hard!"
Jian Jianan could understand the elder sister's unfriendly tone. Anyone who bought counterfeit, shoddy and low-quality products would be angrier than her.
Jian Jianan put himself in the situation and thought that if it were him, he might have burst into tears on the spot. He suddenly felt that this elder sister was a person with a relatively good temper.
Jian Jianan was not angry at all: "I am the daughter of the boss of Shen Ya. Do you think my identity can solve this problem with you?"
Seeing Jian Jianan coming, the saleswoman quickly took a step back to give Jian Jianan room to display his strength. In fact, she had some resentment towards the Shen Ya Clothing brand in her heart.
She thinks that there are so many brands of clothes sold on the first floor of Friendship Shopping Mall, why are there no problems with other brands of clothes, but only yours, Shenya, has people coming to cause trouble every few days.
In addition to this big sister who looks difficult to deal with, the saleswoman has also received many people like this. Just looking at what happened in the past few days, she doesn't understand what happened. It's like she had stirred up a hornet's nest.
But now seeing Jian Jianan stepping forward with such a sense of responsibility, the saleswoman's anger suddenly subsided. Forget it, she is still a little girl and the adults are not around, so why bother with her.
Seeing Jian Jianan like this, it was obvious that she wanted to come forward to save the market for Shenya Clothing, so the saleswoman tactfully gave her a seat so that she could better perform. Jian Jianan was not polite either, and immediately took over the seat where the saleswoman had just stood and started chatting with the aunt.
"Auntie," Jian Jianan said very patiently, "I can assure you about the dress in your hand. I can tell you accurately that this is definitely not Shen Ya's dress!"
The auntie was definitely not happy with what Jian Jianan said. Who would be willing to admit that something they spent a lot of money on was pirated clothing? She immediately yelled, "You are so young, what's wrong with you? You are so rude! Who are you? How can you say that I bought pirated clothes? I spent money on it, you know that!"
Jian Jianan saw that this old lady obviously wanted to continue deceiving herself and was unwilling to believe that the clothes in her hands were pirated. But in her current state, if there was no evidence to show for it, not only this old lady, but even the onlookers would not agree!
Jian Jianan knew that this was another test for himself.
In just one second, Jian Jianan thought a lot. How could he make the victim of the pirated clothes in front of him and the onlookers nearby clearly understand the huge difference between the pirated Shen Ya and the genuine Shen Ya?
Point out the materials to them? No, that's a bad idea, because there are too many onlookers. Besides, if you are not a professional in the clothing industry, you won't know which materials are good and which are bad. After all, this is not common sense.
Should she directly use her status to pressure others, saying that she was the daughter of Shen Ya's boss and must recognize her own clothes? No, that was a bad idea. Using her status to pressure others was the most foolish thing to do. If she wasn't careful, it would backfire. Not only would it fail to resolve the current situation, it would also cause greater disputes among the onlookers, making them all disgusted with Shen Ya clothing.
In a flash, Jian Jianan thought of a good idea, and now this is the only way!
She took a deep breath, took a last look at the clothes the aunt in front of her was holding, and then ran to the small area where Shen Ya's clothing was hung. According to her memory of the glance she had just taken, she accurately took out the genuine clothes corresponding to the pirated clothes the aunt had bought from the clothes hung in a disorderly manner.
This is an indigo fishtail skirt. The biggest difference between a fishtail skirt and an ordinary skirt is that the bottom of the skirt can spread out one by one when walking, achieving a swaying effect, which is something that umbrella skirts and other skirts cannot do.
As soon as Jian Jianan got the authentic fishtail skirt, he immediately returned to the aunt, flipped over the label, and said to her, "Here, Auntie, please take a look. Our authentic Shen Ya brand clothes all have our own exclusive production labels. It clearly says "Shen Ya" and even has the trademark. Don't worry, I'm definitely not trying to deceive you. This has all been registered with the Industry and Commerce Bureau. If you don't believe me, just go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau and ask and you'll understand everything clearly!"
Jian Jianan first brought up the famous name of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to let her know that Shen Ya Clothing was a registered trademark and counterfeiting was absolutely not allowed.
When the aunt heard this, she immediately looked at her pirated clothes. She searched the entire fishtail skirt but couldn't find the so-called trademark that Jian Jianan mentioned. There was only the word "life" on it, so she had to put it down in disappointment.
In fact, at this point, the auntie already understood almost everything, but she just kept saying it stubbornly, feeling sorry for the money she spent!
"It's just a label, is that the only difference? You're preventing me from changing it just because of a small label. Aren't you bullying us ordinary people? We ordinary people don't understand these things. You're a professional, so you must know more than me. It's possible that you're using this to fool me!"
Jian Jianan had anticipated this scene, and she also knew that the aunt might refuse to admit it. She nodded simply and neatly, and the next second, she snatched the pirated fishtail skirt from the aunt's hand and put it on herself.
It is early summer now and the weather is getting hotter. Jian Jianan, who has always been intolerant to heat, wears short-sleeved shirts and shorts. There is no weird feeling when she puts a fishtail skirt on her body. Except that it does not match the short-sleeved shirt, there is nothing else to find wrong with it.
The action of Jian Jianan snatching the skirt from someone else's hand and putting it on herself was done in one go and was very natural. After shocking the onlookers, Jian Jianan remained calm and walked several steps naturally, trying to let people around her see clearly the effect of the fishtail skirt on her.
"Auntie, I know you won't believe anything I say, so let me give you a practical example."
"First, take a look at this fishtail skirt I'm wearing. It's the one you paid for. Remember how it looks on me now, and then look at how it looks on me in our original Shen Ya skirt."
After taking two steps, Jian Jianan took off the pirated fishtail skirt, and then immediately put on her own authentic fishtail skirt. She also took several steps to let everyone see the different effects of the two fishtail skirts.
As she walked, anyone with a discerning eye could quickly notice the difference between the two skirts.
"Hey, am I seeing things? Why do I feel like the skirt at the back is much more dynamic than the one at the front?"
"No, no, no, you're not seeing things. I feel the same way! The skirt in front is fine when you're not walking, but it's very obvious when you start moving. The fabric clings tightly to your legs, making it look stiff. It doesn't have the effect of a mermaid skirt at all!"
The saleswoman came out at the right moment to act as a supporting role, "Yes, yes, I believe everyone has noticed that the difference between this genuine Shen Ya and the pirated version is not only the fabric and appearance, but the effect on the wearer is also very different!"
Jian Jianan walked around in front of everyone several times wearing the authentic Shen Ya clothing, at least longer than the pirated one, before taking it off and showing it to everyone. "Yes, the tailoring is also very different. Our designs are all specially designed by Hong Kong designers. The designs are top secret and will never be disclosed to the outside world. So, if an outside designer buys our authentic clothes and uses them as patterns, it is impossible to achieve an exact replica. I believe everyone has understood after seeing this. Compared with real Shen Ya clothes, the pirated Shengyi clothing is of inferior quality. I believe everyone knows what to choose."
After Jian Jianan finished speaking, he looked at the aunt who was causing trouble and said, "Aunt, I know you bought pirated clothes and I definitely don't blame you. It's all because of the unscrupulous pirates."
After Jian Jianan walked around in two different fishtail skirts, the aunt knew that the situation was over and that she would definitely not get any good results if she came here to make trouble. Now that Jian Jianan gave her a way out, she of course quickly accepted it, "Yes, yes, you little girl, you are so nice to hear. It's all the fault of those people who make pirated clothes!"
Jian Jianan smiled slightly. She had just changed her skirt in public so that everyone could see the difference between the two. For the onlookers, her mission was completed. The last step she had to take now was to comfort the woman in front of her.
"How about this, Master? After all, you're a victim too. Coming here and making a scene is something no one wants to see. If you want to buy genuine clothes from us, how about I give you a small gift?"
It is impossible to give a discount. Even genuine customers don’t get this discount. How can they give a discount just because you, a person who bought pirated clothes, make a fuss?
However, Jian Jianan's conciliatory policy was still very effective. Before the great man in front of them could answer, the onlookers were unhappy and kept trying to persuade her, "Aunt Zhang, just agree to it. You still have gifts to receive!"
