As we approach the end of December, 1998 is coming to an end.
After being silent for a long time, No. 29 Yueyang Street finally welcomed its new owner.
Su Nan was wearing a specially customized red and black Chanel-style suit, with long curly hair draped over her shoulders and dazzling red lips. She stood in front of a deserted house, smiling and welcoming everyone. Her beautiful and fashionable appearance attracted a lot of passers-by around her.
Beside her stood several men in suits and ties, with fashionable slicked-back hair and full of vigor. One could tell at a glance that they were of high status and had a very cadre-like air.
Behind them stood more than a dozen workers, lined up in a row, looking particularly imposing.
"Today the 'rich' modeling studio officially starts construction. Please take good care of it." With this order, the red silk was cut by several pairs of scissors, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony came to an end.
As soon as the voice fell, fireworks and firecrackers were set off one after another, and the sound of firecrackers was endless, instantly igniting everyone's curiosity.
"Hey, what is this for?"
"It seems like they've opened a private shop. They've just started renovations and cleaning."
"A private shop? Isn't that illegal? I won't go. What if I get arrested?"
"Who said it's illegal? Didn't you buy some vegetables from a street vendor a few days ago? Now the country has a new policy that allows private businesses. Hey, why does this boss look familiar to me?"
A voice interrupted, explaining, "That's the leading lady from that recently released movie, the one that was released last year. Look, there's a camera taking pictures over there. Next to her is the film's director, along with the director of a nearby oil refinery and a cadre from the supply and marketing cooperative. Wow, what a grand occasion."
"Really? I was wondering why she was so beautiful. Turns out she's an actress. I went to see that movie a few days ago. Is she the one who opened this shop? I'll definitely come take a look once it's finished decorating."
"Then I'll take a look too."
A store called "rich" has become famous in the neighborhood before it even opened. Many people come here every day to see what the store looks like. Many movie fans also come here to wait just to meet the female lead Su Nan.
The store's popularity reached its peak after it was featured on the covers of newspapers and major weekly magazines.
After whetting everyone's appetite, "rich" was finally renovated and opened.
The overall color tone is bright macaron color, and the garden is full of various flowers. It is very beautiful, like a fairyland.
The first floor mainly sells clothing, shoes and hats, while the second floor mainly sells cosmetics and styling design.
The world, which has long been dominated by black, white and grey, is now filled with a sense of freshness when this unique colour breaks in. No one who enters this store leaves empty-handed.
The shop assistants are all handsome men and beautiful women, young and energetic. The samples they wear have become the best-selling fashion items.
The second floor has a wide variety of cosmetics with a complete range of packaging. The packaging is also beautiful and retro. There are simple packaging with the four English letters "rich" printed on the glass bottles, and there are also complex packaging with stylish fashion girls printed on the small iron boxes.
The things here are the same in different forms. They are all things Su Nan took from countless big-name cosmetics in the space, and then replaced the original packaging with her own new packaging, realizing the idea of making money that she had when she was in Sang'an County.
Customers who purchase cosmetics here can enjoy a free full makeup experience. If they buy more products, they can also get sample gifts and a discount card.
In addition, Su Nan comes to the store several times every month, chatting and joking with customers, and is very friendly, allowing many people to experience up close what it is like to have close contact with the actresses on the screen.
Therefore, even though “rich” products are priced quite high, there are still many wealthy ladies who flock to them and even take pride in owning “rich” products.
As for how he persuaded the supply and marketing cooperative to sell the land and houses, Su Nan said that money makes the world go round. If they could add a few more profits on top of the money, then everything would become simple.
If her shop becomes popular, then the nearby shops will naturally follow suit and their business will improve. Besides, the house has been abandoned for so long, and they won't get much out of it if they hold on to it tightly, so they might as well sell it at a high price.
Just to buy the land and the house, and to ensure that a series of subsequent matters such as decoration, product packaging, and clothing customization can be completed successfully, Su Nan borrowed a large sum of money from Chang Yelin.
The current situation is that the appearance is bright and beautiful, but the inside is heavily in debt.
Fortunately, "rich" was very hardworking and made a considerable profit in the first month. According to this development trend, she would be able to pay off her debts in just half a year and live a life of sitting back and collecting money.
Besides, with the hot discussion and attention after the release of the movie, she has already gained a certain degree of fame across the country. Now as long as she manages it well, she will not have to worry about not having movies to shoot or not having money to earn.
For the time being, she is still an actress at the Shanghai Film Studio and has no plans to change jobs. At least she has to wait until she has enough money and a few representative works before she can quit, open her own studio, and become her own boss.
As the sound of wind and snow grew heavier, Su Nan, through her own unremitting efforts and constant persuasion, successfully secured advertising endorsements from several private and public enterprises, becoming a common poster girl on the walls of the streets and alleys.
In order to increase his exposure, Su Nan even spent money to buy several advertising spaces in the Shanghai Center and posted large photos of himself on them.
In this era without the Internet, Su Nan really doesn't know what other ways there are to make the public remember his face except doing this.
Of course, this method also has a very high impact. At least when she walks on the street, she will definitely be recognized and chased by others. So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she has to wear a mask and a hat when going out.

It is the New Year's Day again. The streets are full of joy. More and more people are setting up stalls to sell food, and more and more people are willing to go shopping for novelty.
A black car drove slowly onto the street and stopped in front of an ancient Chinese building. The driver, dressed in a neat and decent suit, got out of the car, walked to the back seat and opened the door.
The first thing that catches your eye is a pair of black high heels with red soles, followed by slender white calves, which are extremely sexy. Then there is an indigo coat, long curly hair gathered around her shoulders, and a face with exquisite makeup is the finishing touch, making her whole body radiate, making people unable to help but look at her again and again.
"Thank you." Su Nan nodded to thank the driver and walked towards the hotel.
More than a year later, Beijing is as prosperous as ever, and has even become more colorful due to the rise of private enterprises. Even top-notch hotels with extremely luxurious decorations have opened up, and are doing very well.
As far as she knew, this restaurant had only been open for less than a month when it opened several chain stores in various districts of Beijing, monopolizing all the high-end restaurant businesses nearby.
Other restaurants should never get close to it, otherwise they will become unfortunate and have no chance of survival.
