On the stage, Meng Louchun and Lu Lingchun were singing.
Horton and the other Westerners were not interested in Beijing opera. They were more interested in Liang Chen's 520 cigarettes.
"What do you think, Mr. Horton?"
“Nice！”
Horton took a deep puff of his 520 mint cigarette.""Very good, Liang. This is really great. I need a lot.”
"Hello, Mr. Livingstone." A blond man with curly hair walked over." I'm Johnny.”
"Mr. Johnny's Chinese is really good." Liang Chen smiled and shook his hand.”
One of Liang Chen's goals for attending the cocktail party today was to get to know the German Consul, Johnny, because he had something he needed.
The 520 cigarettes were Liang Chen's stepping stone to open up the foreign market.
But a cigarette was far from enough.
"That's great, Mr. Livingstone."
Johnny was full of praise for the 520 cigarettes.
The 520 cigarettes had a mellow smell and taste. They were invincible in the world.
In addition to the filter, smoking didn't require one to spit out the tobacco leaves. For people from the upper class like them, that was too ungentlemanly and unelegant.
How could this be as simple as awesome?
Johnny raised the cigarette between his fingers."Roses, I can smell the fragrance of roses.”
Noticing that Johnny was staring at him, Liang Chen took out a stainless steel cigarette box and smiled.""Mr. Johnny, if you don't mind, I'll give this to you.”
"I've given all that I brought today as gifts to Mr. Horton.”
Horton immediately raised his finger to his mouth."Shh, Liang, don't say it."
"Hahaha ~"
Johnny looked at Horton and smiled.""Mr. Horton wouldn't be so stingy, right?”
"No, no, no! I don't have much." Horton immediately refused.
Horton didn't want to draw it himself. He wanted to ship it back to England and give it to his superiors, especially the royal family.
Whether or not the government would prosper depended on this magical 520 cigarette.
"No one can refuse the fragrance of roses.”
"No one can refuse Mint Cool.”
Johnny kept praising the 520 cigarettes.
However, Liang Chen did not say that he would give him some. This made him feel very tormented.
With his status, he was too embarrassed to ask Liang Chen directly, but he really wanted it.
At this moment.
Yisha walked over with her dress and asked,""Mr. Livingstone, where is the gift you gave me?”
Little Ah Qiao gave Tang Chen a look.
Liang Chen nodded.
This was something he had specially arranged for Qiao to do. Today's product was to be launched in front of these high-ranking people, opening up the overseas market in one fell swoop, and Yisha, as the protagonist, was the key.
Liang Chen needed an opportunity.
And now.
The opportunity had come!
A moment later, Yisha happily brought the gift box over. It was beautifully wrapped.
Pow ~
Yisha tiptoed and kissed Liang Chen on the cheek.""Thank you, Liang."
"I want to open it now, okay?”
"Of course." Liang Chen smiled.
Yisha smiled sweetly and began to open the box. She took a deep breath and carefully picked up the lid.
"Hmm?"
"What is this?"
Yisha picked up a silk-like object and looked at Liang Chen in confusion.
"Scarf?"
Yisha was about to put it on her neck when Liang Chen raised his hand to stop her.""No, no, no, Miss Yisha. This is not a scarf, but a pair of…socks.”
"A sock?"
Johnny, Horton, and the others all looked surprised.
The foreign noblewoman at the side said in shock,"Oh my God, are these socks?"
Liang Chen smiled and nodded." Yes, ma 'am. This is the world's first pair of silk stockings!”
Zhang Wanlin and the others also rushed over to join in the fun. They grinned and said,"Hahaha, you call this a sock? Wasn't this the handkerchief used by women in brothels to attract customers?”
Liang Chen chuckled." Marshal Zhang really doesn't know anything about fashion. You'd better shut up in front of these noble ladies. Don't embarrass yourself anymore, okay?"”
Zhang Wanlin's face darkened. He gritted his teeth and questioned,"What did you say?"
Liang Chen looked at him and said,"Do you need me to repeat it?"”
"Mr. Zhang, are you going to make a scene at my daughter's birthday party?" Horton asked.”
"No, no, no. That's not what we meant.”Lu Yucheng hurriedly eased the atmosphere." Young Master Liang, can you wear this on your feet?”
Horton turned to look at Liang Chen and asked with a smile,""Mr. Liang Chen, can you explain it to us?”
"Of course."
Liang Chen nodded." Miss Yisha is so beautiful, and today is her birthday. As far as I know, in Europe, it's very popular for nobles to go to fashion shows. Why don't we invite the ladies here today to do a fashion show?”
"A runway show?"
"What show?"
The Chinese had never heard of such a term.
"That's great, Dad. That's a great idea.”Yisha clapped excitedly.
"Mr. Liang Chen actually knows about the runway show?" asked Johnny in surprise.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Tianhao and Yue Feifei, who were nearby, revealed proud expressions.
Liang Chen had one hand in his pocket as he said elegantly," Europe has had fashion shows since 20 years ago. In Beauty Nation, the first model training company was established seven years ago. Many famous movie stars came from their company.”
JPR Company, John Robert Powers, which was the name of the founder, John Robert Powers.
Over the years, their company had indeed sent many movie stars to Hollywood.
Marilyn Monroe-who was once popular in history came from this company.
Johnny from Germany, Horton from Ying, and a group of noblewomen all looked at Liang Chen in surprise.
In their hearts, no one in Xia country understood the word "fashion".
Even those powerful merchants.
At this moment.
Whether it was the upper-class socialites or the wealthy ladies and young masters from overseas, they all paled in comparison to the talented Liang Chen.
Not far away.
Tang Ying was completely captivated by Liang Chen.
None of her friends in Shangyao knew about this.
Liang Chen was the only one who walked up to her. He knew without asking that she was wearing Chanel No. 5 perfume. Like her, he was a person with good taste.
Moreover…
Not only did this man not show any fear in front of so many powerful figures, but he could also talk with confidence and talk about domain knowledge that many people did not know.
He…
Brilliant.
He…
Elegant and humble.
He…
He was the future father of fashion in Xia country!
