Chapter 376 WPG0375: The wisdom of our ancestors! Husband sings and wife follows: Single dog is bullied?
"Can I take a look at your home's design plan?" An Wuyang asked.
"Of course!" Sun Yue replied affirmatively.
Hermès is not worried about leaks!
Because it is a joint product, Hermès will inevitably submit the design plan to Wu Gengtian for review.
Sun Yue took out her mobile phone. She sent the corresponding design plan to An Wuyan and explained, "Our Hermès design team referred to the 'Tripod-shaped Copper Lamp' from the Warring States Period as a prototype to design the corresponding design plan." candlestick.”

(↑Tripod-shaped copper lamp: on)

"The lamp body part will be used as a storage compartment for scented candles, and the lamp cover part has been specially processed to facilitate full combustion of scented candles every time they are lit, and to avoid waste of scented candles when they are burned to the end." Sun Yue added.
An Wuyang looked at the 'Tripod-shaped Copper Running Lamp' on his mobile phone. This was a design from the Warring States Period more than two thousand years ago. He had to praise the wisdom of the ancients.
"Who made this design?" An Wuyang was curious.
This copying style is a bit awesome!
"The design team at Hermès headquarters." Sun Yue sighed.
"Foreigner?" An Wuyang was surprised.
"Yes." Sun Yue sighed again.
"These designers really like to learn from our ancestors' plans!" An Wuyang teased.
Sun Yue seconded, "No way!"
In fact, it is not uncommon for luxury brands to learn from Xia’s ancestors’ plans.
For example, the famous green presbyopia logo is very similar to the Tang Dynasty rosewood pipa. It is a pity that this Tang Dynasty rosewood pipa did not stay in the Xia Kingdom.
For another example, Givenchy’s logo and band pattern can only be said to be twin brothers, right?
And Celine’s logo and longevity pattern can only be said to be from the same mother!
(↑Disclaimer for this picture)
As for plagiarizing specific styles, from horse-faced skirts to flower-and-bird pictures, they are all blatant plagiarism.
After all, it is impossible for the ancestors to jump up and sue for infringement.
The same is true for Hermès this time. They simply copied the ‘tripod-shaped copper running lamp’ as the candle holder for the bitter orange scented candle.
However, An Wuyang didn't mind Hermès's operation.
Because An Wuyang saw the corresponding introduction in Hermès' design, Hermès stated that the design originated from the "tripod-shaped copper lantern" during the Xia Kingdom and the Warring States Period, and the prototype of the work is displayed in the Xia Kingdom Sweet Potato Provincial Museum.
This must be appreciated!
An Wuyang didn't care whether Hermès made such an introduction to deal with him or for other reasons. Anyway, when signing the joint cooperation, An Wuyang asked Hermès to put the corresponding introduction in the product.
This includes but is not limited to marking it on the box and instructions, and it also needs to be marked in official Hermès promotional materials.
An Wuyang didn't mind foreigners learning from their ancestors. What he minded was that foreigners directly plagiarized and used the things as their own propaganda.
This is not good!
An Wuyang didn't think that he was a narrow-minded nationalist, but An Wuyang didn't think that he could forgive the other person generously for stealing something but still refuse to admit it and keep it as his own.
Just like An Wuyang never liked the 'hangtag' in luxury goods, this brand was very arrogant. They clearly used the design of a horse-faced skirt and shamelessly said that it was their own thing.
How could An Wuyan accept this kind of thing?
"This design is very good!" An Wuyang praised first, but he was obviously praising the wisdom of his ancestors more than two thousand years ago.
"If you use this design, I need you to clearly indicate the source of design inspiration." An Wuyang added in detail and explained the conditions.
Sun Yue naturally agreed.
Hermès is seeking money and expanding its brand influence, not to offend customers and partners.
"This design of yours is really a one-size-fits-all solution." An Wuyang couldn't help but sigh again.
"Domestic customers will definitely like this design. After all, it adds sentimentality." An Wuyang added.
"As for overseas, this kind of exquisite design with ancient Xia Kingdom elements can also attract customers. You are doing a great job!" An Wuyang praised.
Sun Yue responded with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. An, for the compliment."
"Do you find a foundry to produce this tripod-shaped copper running lamp yourself, or do you need us to be responsible for it?" An Wuyang asked additionally.
"We'll handle it ourselves!" Sun Yue responded quickly.
Hermès has already found a foundry and has put forward very high requirements.
For example, the current tripod-shaped copper running lamps in Ganshu Province are oxidized bronze, but the tripod-shaped copper running lamps of Hermès are required to be gilt gold.
(↑Tripod-shaped copper traveling lamp: gilt gold)
In fact, the bronze color of the current bronzes only appears after time precipitation and oxidation. They were also gilded in ancient times.
Many costume films and TV dramas fail to do this well!
Do you really think that ancient people used this kind of oxidized bronze for daily use or as ornaments?
What a joke!
For example, the bronze wine bottle now looks naturally oxidized bronze, but the original bronze wine bottle was gilded and dazzling.
Hermès has done a very good job, so Hermès does not need to help solve the tripod-shaped copper lamp problem at midnight.
"Mr. An, we heard that a bitter orange scented candle can burn for about 12 hours, right?" Sun Yue asked knowingly.
An Wuyang nodded, "That's right."
"We hope that one large tube can be made into twelve small ones, and the burning time of each small tube can be kept at about one hour. Is this okay?" Sun Yue asked.
An Wuyang agreed, "Yes, yes, you guys."
"I understand!" An Wuyang originally wanted to ask why Hermes did this, but he immediately thought of the answer.
"You hope to use the bitter orange scented candle to guide users into deep sleep. Once they enter deep sleep, they will save the consumption of subsequent candles, right?" An Wuyang asked.
Sun Yue nodded affirmatively, "That's right."
An Wuyang responded with a smile, "What a good idea!"
"But I remind you that this operation is only suitable for some people, because when the bitter orange scented candle is burning, it will continue to release scent molecules that make people relax, instead of everything being fine after falling asleep." An Wuyang reminded.
Sun Yue was stunned. Hermès did not know this situation!
"I'll give you a suggestion. You can make several sizes of bitter orange scented candles, such as one-hour to six-hour versions, and make some in sequence." An Wuyang gave a suggestion.
"Hermès can also sell bitter orange scented candles separately. After all, you can't buy a tripod-shaped copper lamp every time, right?" An Wuyang complained.
The two communicated about the joint collaboration of bitter orange scented candles for almost ten minutes. When the time approached a quarter past six, An Wuyang raised his left hand and looked at the Patek Philippe watch.
This is the new era of serving tea to guests!
Sun Yue naturally noticed An Wuyang's actions, and she also understood the meaning of this action.
"It's getting late. Thank you Mr. An for your reminder and suggestion. I will discuss the corresponding matters when I go back today and then contact Mr. An. I will not disturb Mr. An and Ms. Xia's appointment at this time. I am very sorry for delaying you two. Time." Sun Yue expressed her apology.
Then he picked up the Birkin 20 black house and handed it to Xia Yuqing, "To express my apology, please accept our small gift, Ms. Xia."
Xia Yuqing didn't take it immediately. She looked at An Wuyang.
After waiting for An Wuyang to nod, Xia Yuqing took it.
An Wuyang thanked him on the side, "Then I will thank Director Sun for his kindness on behalf of our Qingqing!"
"Mr. An, you're welcome!" Sun Yue responded politely. After the two parties said goodbye to each other, An Wuyang took Xia Yuqing and left.
After the two of them entered the elevator, the lobby manager Liang Yingxia walked up to Sun Yue. She asked in a low voice, "Who is that young master?"
"Ah?" Sun Yue looked at Liang Yingxia doubtfully.
"You don't know who he is?" Sun Yue's head was filled with questions.
An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing live in Huashan Apartment. Does the lobby manager Liang Yingxia not know his identity?
"Well, we have strict privacy and confidentiality terms for residents here. Although I am the lobby supervisor, I don't know the identity information of the residents. I only know that Tianyin Pharmaceutical rented the corresponding suites." Liang Yingxia said softly.
"Then I told you, you won't break the rules?" Sun Yue teased.
Liang Yingxia denied, "Caring for residents is also one of our jobs."
OK OK!
Whether it's black or white, they have the final say, right?
"You should watch more DouLe short videos after get off work. Don't spend the whole day working!" Sun Yue sighed.
The two used to be college classmates. Since they both work in Shanghai, their relationship has not broken off now, so Liang Yingxia came directly to reminisce about old times and helped decorate the booth.
"That is the famous CEO of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group. I don't need to tell you the rest, right?" Sun Yue revealed the news.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"It's that one?" Liang Yingxia was surprised.
……
An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing returned to the suite of Huashan Apartment. Xia Yuqing spoke first, "I want to take a shower first, please wait for me."
"Want to come together?" An Wuyang deliberately provoked.
"Just you?" Xia Yuqing raised her smooth chin slightly, with a hint of smile in her tone.
However, Xia Yuqing's understatement almost made An Wuyang red and warm!
This is probably the great thing about speed-dressing dancers, right?
"Yes, I almost forgot, Manman and the others have made an appointment to have dinner together." Xia Yuqing added.
An Wuyang was confused, "Have you made an appointment?"
"Yes!" Xia Yuqing replied affirmatively, "It's the National Day holiday soon. We, the little sisters, have made an appointment to have dinner together. I told them that you should go too."
"Then what shall we have for dinner?" An Wuyang asked.
"Buffet." Xia Yuqing responded, "It's not far behind the Weilan Fitness Center. Let's go there after I take a shower."
"Okay!" An Wuyang agreed.
A buffet is a buffet!
Anyway, with four beautiful dancers accompanying him to dinner, it was almost acceptable.
Almost half an hour later, An Wuyang, Xia Yuqing and Lu Manman reunited.
A warm and enthusiastic greeting, "Mr. An, long time no see!"
"Like three autumns?" An Wuyang asked back.
"Ouch!" Wenxin was a little embarrassed by An Wuyang's teasing.
Lu Manman and Zong Chunyan laughed directly.
Because Wen Xin said this last time, and An Wuyang joked that he was very oily!
Everyone was walking and chatting.
Wen Wen curiously asked, "Where are you going to play during the National Day?"
An Wuyang did not hide anything, "She wants to go to Yuhang and Suzhou."
"Ah? Isn't it?" Wen Wen was surprised.
"I am from Suzhou, and I advise you not to go during the National Day!" Wen Wen quickly added.
Xia Yuqing was confused, "Why?"
"Traveling to Suzhou during the National Day is a disaster!" Wen Wen complained about his hometown unceremoniously.
"All I can say is that there are people everywhere, there are traffic jams everywhere, and there are queues at every shabby restaurant." Wen Wen added.
"By the way, have you booked a hotel in advance?" Wen Wen asked again.
Xia Yuqing looked at An Wuyang, she really hadn't booked a hotel yet.
Because these things are handled safely.
An Wuyang did not answer whether he had booked a hotel, but agreed, "During the National Day, there are indeed more people in Suzhou."
Xia Yuqing answered with some embarrassment, "Then let's not go there. I have never been to Suzhou before and I don't know about this situation."
"Xinxin, can you recommend a place suitable for National Day travel?" Xia Yuqing looked at Wenxin, hoping that Wenxin would recommend a place to travel.
Wen Wen was embarrassed for a moment.
Which place is suitable for National Day travel?
This.
It seems not?
During the National Day, even the top of Mount Taishan was packed with people. Where was there no one there?
When Wen Wen was in a dilemma, An Wuyang answered, "Don't worry, I've already made arrangements!"
"Oh!" Xia Yuqing naturally stopped worrying as soon as she heard that An Wuyang had made arrangements.
This time it was Wenxin's turn to become curious, "Mr. An, how did you arrange your schedule?"
"You want to know?" An Wuyang teased.
"Well!" Wen Wen looked at An Wuyang expectantly.
Did she know that when An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing were traveling in the imperial capital, An Wuyang arranged an in-depth interactive scripted game for Xia Yuqing, and also arranged a solo dance for Xia Yuqing, "Light Across Thousand Years".
Among them, the solo dance "Light Across Thousand Years" is particularly popular in their dance field. After all, the gold content of this solo dance is too high!
That kind of gold content in the literal sense!
So Wenxin is really curious about what kind of surprise trip An Wuyang has prepared for Xia Yuqing during the National Day this time?
"I won't tell you!" An Wuyang responded with a smile.
"Huh??" Wenxin was stunned for a moment, and then immediately complained, "Qingqing, your Mr. An bullied me!"
Xia Yuqing stood directly with An Wuyang and performed what it means to be a husband and a wife, "Really? I didn't see it!"
"You." Wenxin pretended to be aggrieved, and looked at Lu Manman and Zong Chunyan for help, "Manman, Yan'er, they are bullying me!"
Zong Chunyan joked, "You are single and they are a couple. Don't you deserve to be bullied by them?"
Lu Manman seconded, "Yes! There are two of them!"
Xia Yuqing hummed, "Do you know it's wrong to be single?"
Wen Xin pretended to be defeated, "I know, I'm honest, please let me go!"
