Chapter 390 Trend leader
(Bow to thank "Feng Shen Yu Shao" for his monthly ticket support!)
"Teacher, you are right! This guy is just trying to make sense. What kind of entertainment can be worn on the street in a small circle is the most beautiful. This is what he said deliberately for his own purposes. Teacher, you are the top fashion designer in France. No matter what clothes you design, it is the most beautiful. It's just that some people limit their own eyes and cannot understand your greatness!"
The little girl Boya said happily that Antilles had admitted that his flashyness had really scared her, it was like a sudden collapse of faith. Now he finally heard him say that Zhou Ming was making a point, making her understand that Teacher Antilles was still there, and also made her extremely grateful.
Right! This is the teacher Antilles I know. He is a very wise old man. Not only has he achieved the world's top spot in fashion design, but more importantly, his attitude towards life, his pursuit of art, and his erudition of knowledge. How could he be fooled by a young man who is not much older than him? What kind of popular theory, shouldn't it be too ridiculous?
"I can't believe your bullshit theory, and I still want to deceive Teacher Antilles? The teacher was just cooperating with you in performance before, okay?" the little girl said proudly with her little Qiong nose.
Zhou Ming had a headache. He originally thought that things were moving towards his most ideal direction, but he didn't expect that this would happen suddenly.
It seems that it is not as simple as it seems to convince this most influential fashion celebrity in France.
Gripping his teeth, Zhou Ming pretended to be relaxed: "I don't know whether Mr. Antilles was cooperating with me in the performance before, but I can understand that the costumes I designed are good. The audience thinks that this generation of audiences is not good. This idea is very ridiculous."
The little girl said with a pretty face, "It's not like this! Teacher Antilles is a recognized fashion master no matter what, so the teacher's works must be very excellent. As for those people on the street, their backgrounds and education and growth environments are different, so it is normal for many people to not understand the teacher's philosophy. This is not the teacher's fault!"
Zhou Ming smiled and shook his head and asked her: "So do you know what the works of the last Literature Award were? Does this mean that there is something wrong with your literary cultivation?"
The little girl was stunned at that time. She never expected that Zhou Ming would suddenly ask such a question, which caught her off guard.
If she was just herself, she could completely admit that she had insufficient literary cultivation. But the problem was that she was a student of Antilles. If she said so, wouldn’t she also say that Antilles had insufficient literary cultivation? This is an insult to the master. After all, Antilles was also a person who published books.
Just when the little girl was so entangled that she was going crazy, Antilles stood up and said, "I did say this mean guy, but this does not mean that I don't agree with his statement."
The little girl Boya was stunned. She just now didn't know how to explain Zhou Ming's fallacy, but now Angeles's words made her completely confused. She didn't know what to say. She didn't understand that the teacher knew that he was making a point, so why did she still agree with his statement?
But Anrez didn't care about the little girl's shock, but he said to Zhou Ming: "Do you know? You solved the problem that has troubled me for a long time."
"As early as ten years ago, I was already the top fashion designer in France. The fashion I designed every year will become a model for major fashion brands. Every international supermodel will be proud to be able to wear fashion designed by me! At that time, for most fashion designers, it must be the most brilliant, but I was confused."
Angeles frowned, as if recalling the painful time of his own: "Even though I won one grand prize after another, I became more and more disgusted with my fashion designs, and felt that the clothes I designed were like shit!"
The little girl Boya shook her head and said, "The teacher is not like this, you are the best fashion designer..."
Anrez waved his hand and interrupted her: "But that's what I thought at that time. I never could design a perfect piece that satisfies myself. I think I'm a disgusting bastard. I just keep designing clothes based on the eyes of those judges. That's shame!"
"So later I stopped participating in those fashion shows and grand prix, but I kept mixing various elements in this studio to my design, hoping to make the most perfect works."
Speaking of this, Antilles's eyes darkened: "But I have no choice. No matter I use the Dylan dynasty, the Pinbo dynasty, the Viking style, or the Middle East taste style, whether it is the palace dress or the aristocratic dress, no matter what changes I made in the design of those extraordinary clothing, I still feel that there is a little missing."
"For eight years, this problem has troubled me for eight years. I haven't figured out what I am missing in eight years! But today, after hearing Mr. Zhou Ming's words, I fully understand where I am wrong. What I want is not these flashy garbage, but simple clothes that can really cover the whole world, not these garbage that can only be placed in the window!"
Anrez's tone was very firm, and Zhou Ming couldn't help but applaud him: "Yes, Mr. Anrez, you are a master of fashion design, so your works should be accepted by the whole world, not just to please the judges of the so-called fashion design competitions, but also the so-called designers in your circle who don't know what they say and hold a stand-up."
Zhou Ming applauded him sincerely. After all, he had selfish intentions no matter what he said, but Anrez was really trying to design. How could he not make Zhou Ming respect him?
Of course, Zhou Ming's behavior was also rolled by the little girl Boya. She obviously thought that Zhou Ming's behavior was a shameful flattery.
Angeles obviously saw this, so he said to Zhou Ming: "Mr. Zhou Ming, don't worry, I promised you. Since you gave me such a good inspiration, it is very simple for me to help you participate in the exhibition and find designers."
Zhou Ming shook his head and said, "I think you all misunderstood me. Although I am very anxious to participate in the exhibition and find designers, I am not entirely for these things. I am even more for the future fashion trend."
Antilles and the little girl Boya were both stunned. They obviously didn't expect Zhou Ming to say that. Originally, they thought that Antilles had already agreed, so Zhou Ming should have accepted it with shamelessness. But now Zhou Ming said that it is for fashion trends, don't make fun of it here? Why do you, a guy who knows nothing about fashion, point fingers at fashion trends?
"I know you will definitely have doubts about me, so I want to ask Mr. Antilles, you said you have figured it out, so what kind of popular styles do you think will be popular in the future?" Zhou Ming asked.
This question stumped Anrez. If he was given time, he would definitely have figured it out, but now he was completely confused when facing this question.
"Can you ask this question? Obviously, Mr. Zhou Ming, you already have the answer?" Anrez asked back.
Zhou Ming nodded and replied: "It is the theme of returning to nature."
Antilles and the little girl Boya were both question marks. It was not that they didn't understand what a natural theme was, but that they didn't understand how Zhou Ming could come to such a conclusion.
"I know you will definitely be confused, but I want to ask you a question before I tell you my reason. Do you know the largest domestic brand in France in the past ten or twenty years?" Zhou Ming asked.
There were more and more question marks on the foreheads of Antis and the little girl Boya and his teachers and students.
This question made Antilles answer an insult to him, so the girl finally answered carefully: "Although I have not investigated the specific data, I think it must be a big brand like LV, Chanel and Givenchy, right?"
"Of course it's these big brands. In the past twenty years, France's luxury consumption has been a disaster. The mid- and low-end market has been suppressed by luxury brands. Coupled with the fuel of credit cards, no one can compete with these big brands." Zhou Ming shook his head helplessly, "I really don't understand such a simple question that I'm so unconfident. Are you really the top in the fashion circle?"
Zhou Ming's doubts made both Anrez and the little girl very embarrassed, especially the little girl almost couldn't bear it in one breath.
The little girl really wants to say: God knows why you asked such a question, God knows if you have any other purpose, God knows that you will be so direct!
"I am not from the fashion industry, so I will not comment on the styles of these big brands, but I can see the changes in the market!" Zhou Ming said.
Antis and the little girl and the teacher and the students were confused and did not understand what Zhou Ming meant.
"Simply put, in the past, the French were rich, so they could consume the luxury brands as much as possible. But now with the changes in the market, most French people have less money in their pockets, and those luxury brands will no longer be their first choice." Zhou Ming said.
"But what does this have to do with nature?" Antilles finally couldn't help but ask.
"It's very simple." Zhou Ming replied, "regardless of any luxury goods, they have the same characteristics, namely the fineness of raw materials, the use of good fabrics, various fibers that cannot be named, and various animal furs, even wearing gold and silver, and various jewelry accessories; these all represent people's damage to the environment and excessive consumption of clothing."
Zhou Ming emphasized: "No one will feel that there is any problem with these when the economy is overheating, but as the economic growth slows down and everyone's money is getting less and less, everyone will naturally hate the kind of excessive consumption and extravagance and waste."
Zhou Ming paused when he said this. He looked at Antilles and the little girl Boya and asked, "So what is the opposite of excessive consumption and extravagance? Isn't it just opposing waste and returning to nature?"
Zhou Ming finally said: "So I can be very sure that in the future, pure cotton and pure linen, the most natural material, will become popular among everyone. In terms of color, it will be blue sky and ocean, or the colors of soil, flowers and plants, will be loved by the public. Finally, those slightly formal but actually very leisurely and lightweight clothing will be the theme of the future!"
Slap sex!
Anrez was very excited to applaud Zhou Ming: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I believe you must be the prophet of the future trend and the leader of the future trend!"
Chapter completed!
