I'm just trying to ride the wave of popularity!

Chapter 169 I will lead us to the international stage!

The sky gradually darkened.

The sunset in the distance is also slowly fading away.

The vast land gradually became shrouded in mist.

Blair, the French design director, stared at the dress stained with red wine.

The house fell into silence.

Zhang Jingya felt a buzzing sound in her ears, and her brain was completely blank, leaving only three words: "I've made a mess of things."

Zhou Yang looked at the remaining red wine in the bottle, took a light sniff, and when he realized that the red wine was also of excellent quality, he took a small sip in front of everyone and nodded in satisfaction.

Then, to everyone's disbelief, he dipped his finger in wine and wrote the seal script character "雅" (elegant) on the table. Looking at everyone, he said, "The Book of Songs, in the section 'Qin Feng, No Robes,' records that two thousand years ago, Qin soldiers would deliberately spill wine on their battle robes before going to war, symbolizing 'sharing the same robes, drinking together in life and death'... The elegance of sharing the same robes in the East is a romantic notion of life and death, not a performance on a white tablecloth..."

"I want to create our art in a different way..."

"..."

Under the light.

Zhou Yang's voice carried a sense of vicissitude...

Under everyone's gaze, he spoke eloquently, quoting classical texts and using words to depict one hazy historical scene after another.

Zhang Jingya was stunned!

Whether it's the unique charm and allure of Zhou Yang's voice, or the unprecedented cultural confidence emanating from him...

She felt as if Zhou Yang was radiating light at this moment...

In the entire world, it seems that only Zhou Yang is the eternal protagonist!

She translated Zhou Yang's words into French!

At this moment!

She was extremely annoyed!

Why didn't Zhou Yang do his homework with her before he came? As a result, no matter how she tries to translate, she can't capture the essence of Zhou Yang's language!
That's a kind of romance that only Eastern culture possesses!
After Zhou Yang finished speaking, he leaned against the bedside, maintaining that trace of melancholy, vicissitude, yet confidence.

Like a traveler wandering through five thousand years of Chinese history, conversing with the sages of the past.

After a moment of silence.

Upon hearing Zhang Jingya's translation, the designers, who had never heard of Eastern culture, stared in disbelief at the suit stained with red wine.

The pattern created with a casual wave of the hand, at this moment, the landscape lines, seemed to be filled with a unique oriental mystery, which overturned their previous concepts.

"This is an art form that allows East and West to blend together!"

"Just like this glass of red wine, even though you know it's from Bordeaux, you can still hear the lingering charm of 'Guangling San' in the sound of its legs..."

Zhou Yang looked at the empty wine glass and gently tapped it.

The sudden, crisp sound startled Design Director Blair!
It's like a door is slowly opening, allowing the long-standing bottleneck to gradually find a new release.

He felt as if he had arrived in a desolate place, where he saw one different figure after another, and a different sky...

He lowered his head and looked at the ink-splattered suit once more.

This is!

A rugged sense of luxury

this moment!
One word came to mind.

"Your knowledge is truly admirable!"

"I will seriously consider incorporating both Eastern and Western cultures into my designs..."

"..."

After a long while, his expression began to become serious, and gradually turned solemn.

There was no more arrogance, no more questioning, and no more denial.

He only admired Zhou Yang, and nodded to him.
After hearing the translation, Zhou Yang smiled and nodded.

Li Mei stared at Zhou Yang in shock!
Yes!

She was amazed by Zhou Yang's profound knowledge, which he could readily draw upon and quote extensively from classical texts!

This profound knowledge, combined with Zhou Yang's influence at this moment, has made him seem mysterious and distinguished...

It's a unique quality that no clothes can hide!

The Chinese spokesperson for 【KSA】 must be Zhou Yang, and can only be Zhou Yang!
"Mr. Zhou Yang, I can apply to the company for a higher price! As long as you sign an exclusive endorsement deal with us!" She stared at Zhou Yang, her desire barely concealed!

Zhou Yang shook his head: "As I said, I'm not that interested in money... I came here this time to talk about art, and by the way, to see if there's any possibility of collaboration!"

"Tell me what possibilities there are for cooperation!"

“I can’t abandon European suits. My inherent integrity prevents me from becoming a despicable person who betrays friends or uses them as stepping stones… All the brands I collaborate with are friends and family. They believe in me, and I trust them in return. They have helped me in the past, and I have helped them in the past, moving forward together…”

Zhou Yang silently wiped his glasses, then slowly put them on: "I hope to turn this endorsement into a collaboration, a historic East-West collaboration! I'm willing to contribute a portion of my endorsement fee so that our [European Suits] can jointly establish an [Eastern Aesthetics Laboratory] with our [KSA]!"

"We can collaborate and develop new products together!"

"We incorporate Eastern elements such as the hidden patterns of the Book of Songs and Qin seal script totems into our haute couture design concept, integrating Eastern and Western cultures and history into one!"

"Western skin, infused with Eastern soul! Let history come alive, let time become a poem, to be sung and shine on the international stage!"

"..."

Zhou Yang's smile grew brighter and brighter.

Facing everyone, he spoke those words with a firm and resonant voice. And Zhang Jingya…

For some reason, I'm very excited!
I translated this sentence with trembling hands!
The designers looked at each other, then quickly nodded!

....................................

Late at night.

The factory area of ​​[European Suits] was brightly lit.

Countless people were busy making and taking orders for suits, and the bustling scene made Xu Wei feel a little dazed.

The past six months have felt like a dream.

From the processing plant to the overflowing orders, and then to the distributors calling non-stop to urge delivery...

Everything happened because of one very unexpected encounter with that young man.

At this moment, he silently looked up at the billboard above his head that featured Zhou Yang as the spokesperson.

The billboard image of Zhou Yang is handsome and exudes a noble air, looking down at everyone...

"Old Xu, you're still awake?"

"Um……"

His wife walked over, looked at Xu Wei's expression, and finally sighed as she gazed at the distant billboard: "We've tried our best to settle the debt with President Zhou... Do you think he'll want our shares?"

Xu Wei suddenly fell silent.

He lowered his head and looked at the 25% stake in the share transfer agreement for [European Apparel] on the table.

[European Suits] The most valuable thing we have right now is Zhou Yang's endorsement!

And endorsements...

Xu Wei heard the news that Zhou Yang auditioned for the endorsement of [KSA].

【KSA】This top-tier international high-end brand…

The endorsement fee is bound to be substantial; in fact, a year's fee might even exceed the total operating profit of [European Apparel] over five or six years, during its peak period…

Accepting this endorsement means having to sever all other endorsements with [European Apparel]!

He silently put the equity transfer agreement into the drawer and sighed.

"This is all we can give."

"But clearly, these things are worthless in front of Zhou Yang, President Zhou..."

"In the past six months, we've made so much money thanks to Zhou Yang. We should be content!"

"He is about to soar to great heights, and we cannot become a burden on his journey to the international stage!"

"..."

His wife nodded after hearing his words.

After offering a few words of comfort, he quietly lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

He closed his eyes.

Having made up my mind, I was just about to go back to rest.

The phone rang.

He instinctively took out his phone, only to find that it was Zhou Yang calling!
“Mr. Zhou…” he suddenly became a little nervous.

"Mr. Xu, didn't you always call me Zhou Yang before?"

"Things are different now than before..."

"Nothing is different, Mr. Xu. The world may change, but I will not change..."

"I, I know..." Xu Wei nodded, suddenly at a loss for words.

"It's been so long since I've had the food cooked by the landlady..." Zhou Yang sounded nostalgic on the other end of the phone: "I remember the best food I've ever had was from here..."

"Mr. Zhou, you're joking. I just did it casually before, I didn't think too much about it..." Xu Wei was also smiling, but he seemed a little dazed, thinking about how Zhou Yang always came over to freeload last year.

this moment!
He felt a sense of loss.

"Mr. Xu, the cooperation agreement between me and [KSA] has been reached. Please prepare..."

"Well... I know, I understand. I'll remove your endorsement tomorrow. Um, we still have some profits that haven't arrived yet. I'll give them to you then..."

"What do you mean by 'withdraw'? I mean... I've reached some cooperation agreements between our [European Suits] and [KSA] design teams. The KSA design team will soon be in contact with [European Suits] to jointly develop a new suit collection..."

"..."

"Furthermore, I request that KSA share some of its fabric patents and tailoring techniques with our European Apparel as a guarantee for our cooperation. From now on, let's work together diligently. I will take our European Apparel step by step to the international stage and help it stand on a larger stage..."

"..."

After hearing the voice on the other end of the phone.

Xu Wei trembled slightly!
Immediately afterwards...

An indescribable feeling of gratitude welled up in my heart.

His eyes were red-rimmed!

already……

I can't see anything clearly anymore.
