Chapter 450 There is more to life than meets the eye (please vote for me!)
If we say that the 2010 World Cup in South Africa left the biggest impression on people, except for the Netherlands and Spain, the two teams that have never won the World Cup, The teams meet in the finals.
It is the vuvuzela that resounds throughout the sky.
Accompanying this World Cup from beginning to end, Africa’s unique culture has gone from being curious at the beginning to becoming notorious around the world. It only took a short time for the World Cup.
Many football stars and fans have said that this sound is like a nightmare and makes them feel uncomfortable all over.
But those who received the free earplugs distributed by HYS at major airports said they were very grateful to Hermès for this thoughtful gesture.
Not only did they come to the venue and enjoy the World Cup schedule, they also got a rare souvenir.
The exquisite packaging box and the contrasting ergonomically designed earplugs are far more meaningful than the official FIFA souvenirs of the World Cup in South Africa.
Because
“According to insiders, Mandela wore HYS earplugs while watching the final”
"VIPs from various countries, FIFA executives"
Compared with these news, HYS also announced the number of earplugs remaining in stock on the day the World Cup finals ended.
This batch of earplugs will not be destroyed, and all profits generated from sales through HYS’s official website will be donated to UN Children’s Fund.
How much does a pair of earplugs cost?
The value of the logo printed on the box itself is far greater than its well-designed appearance and the functional value of the product.
As a secondary brand of Hermès, the answer given by HYS is US$99 per pair.
Don’t be too expensive, limited edition.
Each valid registration ID can only purchase one pair.
What is a valid registration ID?
Such an ID must not only be registered and speak on HYS’s social software, but also ensure the authenticity of the information.
For those who temporarily registered accounts in order to buy this 2010 World Cup commemorative earplugs, the remaining tens of thousands of earplugs were sold out before they got the right to purchase.
Of course, there is a batch of earplugs that are not sold online.
In HYS stores, if you spend US$2,000 on the same day, you will receive this earplug as a gift.
As for why this thing is liked by so many people?
Because it’s full of gimmicks.
Not only those dignitaries wore this pair of uniquely designed noise-cancelling earplugs during the World Cup, but many players and celebrities who went to South Africa to watch the World Cup praised its wearing effect on social networking sites.
Actually, its real noise reduction level is very average.
But sometimes, people are like that.
When you spend a lot of money to come to the World Cup, but you have no intention of watching the game because of the noisy environment around you, you are surprised to find that the guy next to you can watch the game just because he has earplugs in his ears. What annoyance you are experiencing.
That’s not just envy.
Instead, envy, jealousy, and hatred are superimposed on each other.
As a result, you couldn’t stand the noise and spent a lot of money to buy a pair of ordinary earplugs at the stadium. Then you learned that the earplugs with exquisite packaging and unique contrasting color design were actually free.
Little John, who was enjoying the scenery outside and even went to the World Cup, was finally willing to return to Paris.
As soon as we meet, we pay.
He, Juan Fu, Dou Sen and Xiang Yang bought World Cup lottery tickets, and only Xiang Yang made it to the end.
The 500-pound bonus is nothing compared to the hundreds of millions in World Cup bonuses in online novels.
But it makes little John envious.
Because, this is the World Cup in France
“Here, this is the gift that Ballack asked me to bring back for you.” Holding the gift from the captain of the German football team who was at least third place, the little boy John couldn't be more depressed.
What makes him even more unhappy is that in this short World Cup, his beloved team Paris Saint-Germain was acquired by someone else
Paris Saint-Germain is going bankrupt, and being acquired would be a good thing.
But the buyer of Paris Saint-Germain turned out to be from the Middle East.
People in the Middle East are rich, but do they understand football?
Little John said hehe.
This sarcastic laughter was just like when he saw that his friend Xiang Yang couldn't tell which of his two daughters was older and which was younger.
"Xiang, although the two babies look alike, how come you can't tell them apart?"
"I feel weird too"
Standing in front of the two babies, Xiang Yang said carefully Observing their jaundice slowly fading away, their skin gradually became fair and delicate, "Well, they both feel like they were carved from the same mold."
"."
Little John was silent. Don't speak.
Xiang Yang didn't mind and continued: "Since they all look the same, it's the same who is the elder sister and who is the younger sister, right."
". I feel that if Liu knew what you said, she would definitely follow her. You're angry."
"Then don't let her know."
As Xiang Yang said, he reached out and pulled the pacifiers on the babies' mouths, and said in a threatening tone: "Listen. You are not allowed to tell your mother if you are here, otherwise hehe"
As my sister's confidant, I muttered my little mouth and refused to let the 'bad guy' snatch the pacifier away.
Her little hand was still holding her sister Mu Xin.
"This is my sister~" Xiang Yang said immediately after seeing her actions.
Little John shook his head speechlessly, and he still recognized his daughter like this.
This method really works.
But the two little guys looked really alike. He looked at them for a long time and couldn’t find any difference. Maybe they would be easier to identify when they are older and grow apart.
There is obviously no good solution at present.
After teasing the two little guys for a while, Little John stood up and took out two red envelopes from his bag and handed them to his friends and said:
"Come, listen to Uncle An and Mr. Han. Say, this is the rule. "
"Hey, it seems that we have been to China a lot." Xiangyang took it with a smile. The thickness of the two red envelopes was quite impressive, and it looked like they were about to burst.
“That’s right, I heard that you Chinese people are particular about choosing one in a million”
One in a million?
Xiang Yang, who was weighing the red envelope, was stunned, and the movements of his hands stopped abruptly.
Downstairs, Liu Qianqian, who was chatting with Laura, was happily sharing the valuable experience she gained after becoming a mother.
Suddenly, a curse was heard from upstairs.
“What are they two doing?” Laura frowned and raised her head, and when she looked towards the second floor, Liu Qianqian had already stood up suddenly.
Is there any way to make such a big fuss?
What should I do if I disturb two babies?
Little John felt very wronged.
After hearing the reason for the quarrel between the two, Liu Qianqian was very surprised. How old were Mu Xin and Zhiyin before they were singled out?
How can this be done?
"Then I don't know what 'one in a million' means."
Little John stared at Xiang Yang aggrievedly.
Of course he felt unhappy being treated like this by his friends.
Having a daughter is amazing!
After my son comes out, I will ask Laura to carry him over and play with your two daughters every day. When I see that your two daughters can’t live without my son, who will cry!
Best, both your daughters will fall in love with my son!
Hahahaha
Xiang Yang, who was sitting opposite him, of course had no idea that his friend was having such a big dream of spring and autumn at the moment.
After Liu Qianqian twisted his ears, he has completely returned to "normal" and is currently chatting with Laura.
Of course the topic still revolves around children.
Although Laura's due date is later than Liu Qianqian's, this date will come quietly as time goes by.
After such a long time together, the small unpleasantness obviously did not affect the relationship between the four of them. On the contrary, because another little life was about to join, they had more topics to talk about. .
"This kind of life is so good." After dinner, Liu Qianqian held Xiang Yang's arm and said happily after bidding farewell to her friend.
"Okay?"
Xiang Yang also had a sweet smile on his lips.
He felt that Little John had given him another reminder today.
Originally, he planned to share the story of the two babies with his fans who have always cared about Liu Qianqian through a scarf when they are a few months older.
But now it seems that it is better to forget it.
I don’t know how many people in future generations will miss their wives.
Now, many people are thinking about his wife.
If the incident between the two girls was posted online, wouldn’t he become a public enemy by then?
"Hey, why do I hear your analysis like this? It feels like you are going to be the enemy of the world for me." After sending Little John away, Liu Qianqian took Xiang Yang's hand and the two of them walked on the lawn of the villa. superior.
When the two dogs saw the two people coming, they jumped up and down happily.
Xiang Yang heard the ridicule in Liu Qianqian's tone, and with a smile on her face, she joked: "Then what do I think of you? I'm really looking forward to something like this happening."
"Because you are my husband~"
After saying that, Liu Qianqian rested her forehead on Xiangyang's shoulder, and then said: "You have to pay close attention to some things. Otherwise, you will break your wife's heart. "Yes."
"Well, don't worry."
Xiang Yang nodded.
For the dress of Sansheng III, he decided to put the peacock and flamingo feathers aside first and concentrate on making the white wedding dress first.
In my mind, there are many gorgeous and beautiful wedding dress designs.
When making clothes like a wedding dress, the main thing is the workmanship.
Whether it is a Western-style wedding dress or a Chinese-style wedding dress, whether it is made of handmade lace or exquisite embroidery.
Xiang Yang decided to make two sets.
By the way, I also did the trick I had always owed to Laura.
Of course, he would do it himself for his wife's work, but Laura's one.
"Xiang, are you going to open a workshop?"
After receiving Xiangyang's attention to detail, he was even more meticulous. When there was a design sketch with detailed requirements for the lace pattern, Ellie Saab came to him in person to discuss the details of the production after praising him for a long time.
“No, no.” Xiang Yang pursed his lips and smiled.
Even if he opens his own workshop, he will not focus on making wedding dresses.
Can you make money by making wedding dresses?
Of course I make money.
Every wedding dress costing tens of millions of dollars has been bought by someone. It is very clear to designers like him and Ellie Saab how big the profit is.
Of course, there are not many wedding dresses that can sell for tens of millions of dollars.
However, the annual sales of luxury-level wedding dress brands can’t help but make people sigh that there are so many rich people in the world.
"Xiang, for a wedding dress like yours, let me introduce you to a friend. His fabrics and accessories are more comprehensive."
Although she intends to let her own brand produce this wedding dress, Ellie Saab In the end, I chose to hand it over to ZuhairMurad, a designer also from Lebanon.
His brand also uses his own name.
This brand was founded not long ago, from 1999 to 2011, which was only eleven or twelve years.
But as the originator of luxury wedding dresses, it is perfect for its team to help Xiangyang perfect this wedding dress.
After all, the clothing field also has its own expertise.
If Xiangyang’s design focuses on the shoulders, neckline and waistline, with hollows, embroidery, flowers and other elements, Ellie Saab lets her team complete it with complete confidence.
But the Baroque palace style is one of my best friends’ wedding dress styles.
“I didn’t expect that even when designing a wedding dress, you pursue simple and soft cuts and lines.”
“Then look at this one.”
Xiang Yang smiled and took out the design of another of his works.
He swore that he really didn’t mean to design Laura’s wedding dress inferior to Liu Qianqian’s, but that the labor cost alone for such a purely handmade wedding dress, which took more than ten months to make, was very high.
Little John’s wallet can’t bear to put some extra work on it.
As for the fact that his friend sold Tesla shares again, what else could Xiang Yang do after learning about it besides changing his Bitcoin transaction password?
“I want to do this myself.”
Listening to Ellie Saab praising his design, Xiang Yang raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
He drew this one with great care.
I am afraid that Liu Qianqian will not be satisfied.
But he can also understand why Liu Qianqian has always been concerned about the wedding dress.
The baby has been born and the wedding has not yet been held. Even if she no longer demands too much from Xiangyang, how could Liu Qianqian not care about such an important thing?
What's more, this wedding dress just encouraged her to lose weight.
While Xiangyang was exchanging wedding dresses with Ellie Saab, Liu Qianqian on the other end was not idle at home either.
After her confinement, she not only received a visit from her friend Su Chang, but also began to resume work.
There are really not many things before her.
The movie script of "Space Traveler" is approaching its first deadline, and the script of "Alien" is also finalized, and she has to start systematic preparations.
Apart from movies, she also has endorsement activities to participate in.
HW mobile phones and Van Cleef & Arpels endorsement activities will also gradually begin to attend.
So.
"Liu, you have to do this set of movements again. Believe me, you can do it." Mother Qiu looked at the sweaty Liu Qianqian and clapped her hands to encourage her.
She was due to compete in the World Gymnastics Championships in October.
But no matter how nervous she was to prepare for the competition, she still chose to spend one afternoon every week to help Liu Qianqian recover from exercise.
At first, Liu Qianqian definitely refused.
But Qiu’s mother just sat on the sofa in the living room with her luggage on her back and refused to leave.
"Liu, although pursuing medals is very important to me, it is not the whole of my life, nor is it the whole meaning of my life. What you and Xiang have done may not matter to you, but it has changed My family and life.”
“Now that I have the opportunity to do something for you, how can you refuse?”
"I didn't refuse."
This was the first reaction in Liu Qianqian's mind.
But after agreeing to Qiu’s mother, she regretted it.
Mother Qiu is really cruel. She is not only cruel to herself, she is also helping Liu Qianqian with physical recovery and body shaping, and she also does not forget to prepare for her own competition.
But she is more cruel to others
Liu Qianqian wants to be lazy?
That is something that does not exist at all.
She was dripping with sweat when she heard Qiu’s mother clapped her hands and encouraged her loudly. She used her fingers to push away the hair that had stuck to her face and spat viciously:
“Damn it. Xiangyang! Where did you go at this time!"
"Mother Qiu, why did I pay for three people and end up suffering alone?"
My wife is here for BJ. Uh, DDDD
