Aura Fashion Magazine, CEO's office.
Avril, the mixed-race president, was reading a fashion magazine with Jiang Chen on the cover. She rolled her eyes and called Jiang Chen on WeChat.
"Is this Jiang Chen? I'm Avril from Aura Fashion Magazine. "
"Yes, I know."
Jiang Chen had some impression of this mixed-race CEO of Aura Magazine.
She had naturally blond hair and black eyes. She had the beauty of both Eastern and Western women. She had a beautiful face and a slim figure.
She was a goddess with a score of 96 points.
"I haven't thanked you properly for what you did last time. Do you have time today?"
Avril asked tentatively as she tucked her blond hair behind her ear.
Jiang Chen smiled. "You don't have to thank me. I'm going out anyway. Want to go together?"
Avril: "Okay."
Half an hour later, the two met.
Jiang Chen had long wanted to go to the old city district of the capital. He wanted to go shopping and see the scenery.
Today was a good opportunity.
Jiang Chen and Avril sat in an old rickshaw and chatted.
They walked around the alleys by the river and felt the ordinary life of the people in the capital. Their mood suddenly brightened.
It was a pleasure to be able to find such a quiet place in the busy capital and such a pleasant place in the core downtown area.
"Look, that's the House of Vacheron Constantin!"
When they came to a certain alley, Avril suddenly pointed.
Jiang Chen: "The House of Vacheron Constantin?"
"Yes, it's the House of Vacheron Constantin. It's a unique shop. It's not in a shopping mall, but in the old city district. It's in a very historical villa courtyard!"
Avril seemed to be very familiar with this place.
After turning left and right, they soon came to a villa on the east and west side.
Avril started to explain.
"This courtyard was built in the 1920s. There are two three-story western-style houses on the east and west side. In the early 20th century, it was the residence of a rich businessman. In the new century, the Swiss Luxury Group rented it and renovated it. The west building is the home of the luxury clothing brand, and the east building is the House of Vacheron Constantin.
"Men can make do with other things, but they must have a branded watch."
Avril was a very tasteful and classy woman. She knew how much the upper class valued luxury watches. They valued a man's watch more than his clothes.
Jiang Chen gently shook his wrist, revealing his Patek Philippe. "What do you think of this?"
Avril's eyes lit up, and she covered her mouth in surprise. "This, this is a Patek Philippe 5002p platinum mechanical watch. It costs 17.6 million, and only people with a certain status can customize it. Jiang Chen, you actually …"
Avril wanted to say something but stopped herself. Jiang Chen was a shareholder of GUI's Asia Pacific region. He was definitely powerful!
"This is already a Sanctuary level watch." Avril's expression stiffened slightly, and she felt awkward.
She originally wanted to ask Jiang Chen to buy one, but now it seemed that there was no need.
Jiang Chen had a high EQ, and he had already sensed Avril's thoughts. He smiled. "You're right. I've been wearing this watch for a long time. You seem to have a unique understanding of these things. I want to buy another one. Can you give me some advice?"
"My pleasure." Avril's face blushed slightly, and she smiled.
The two of them entered the villa, Vacheron Constantin.
Avril smiled confidently and introduced the villa to Jiang Chen as they walked.
"Vacheron Constantin was established by Jean-Charles Acheron in Geneva, Switzerland in 1755."
"Vacheron Constantin inherited the essence of Switzerland's traditional watchmaking. The simple and elegant style, and the intricate design, showed the pursuit of technology and aesthetics. It was once listed in the top 500 list of the world."
"Watches, like any other luxury goods, are also graded."
"There are all kinds of kindergarten level watches, university level watches, and even Sanctuary level watches. The overall price ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, millions, and tens of millions."
"But for people with status, status, and class, the difference between a 10 million watch and a 1 million watch is very obvious. It can be seen at a glance. Because it is not only a watch, it is also a work of art, an aesthetic work of art. "
"Jiang Chen, your watch is actually a Patek Philippe Sanctuary level work. Of course, Vacheron Constantin also has it."
Avril took out a book and said seriously, "This book records the Sanctuary level products of Vacheron Constantin." To put it bluntly, they are all famous watches that are over 10 million! Every one of them is famous in the world and is a treasure that collectors rush to get their hands on. Jiang Chen, if you want to buy another one, your first choice will definitely be the Sanctuary level. "
Jiang Chen nodded.
Avril said that a 1 million watch was a product, but a 10 million watch was a collector's item and a work of art!
Otherwise, why would it be said that the poor play with cars, and the rich play with bitches? Bah, it was a watch!
"Jiang Chen, I think this one is not bad."
Avril pointed to a watch in the highest position in the shop that was protected by anti-theft glass.
Vacheron Constantin crocodile totem watch!
It was worth 20.88 million!
Jiang Chen's eyes lit up.
A 20.88 million watch!
Compared to his own, this 17.6 million ~
It seemed that each had its own merits!
Whether it was the workmanship, the carvings, the design drafts, or even the sense of fashion and generosity ~ ~
Awesome Klass!
But in order to make a comparison, Jiang Chen chose a Dragon series that was worth around 10 million to appreciate it first.
Avril explained the knowledge of this watch to Jiang Chen.
Rich people not only had to own luxury goods, but also knew how to appreciate luxury goods.
Jiang Chen realized that Avril's background was definitely not simple.
She had an unusually profound knowledge of the world's top luxury goods and works of art. She could talk about them easily.
In particular, she linked European history and the knowledge of the royal families of various countries to explain these famous watches of European origin. It was an eye-opener for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask about her family background. "By the way, how did you come to China?"
Avril smiled and didn't answer Jiang Chen's question.
At this moment.
A nouveau riche walked in.
A rich businessman who exuded the aura of a nouveau riche from head to toe.
Wu Libin, the coal boss of Jin Province, wore a gold chain and an Armani T-shirt. He walked in with an enchanting and tacky mistress.
The House of Vacheron Constantin had originally taken the extremely high-end route. It was low-key, luxurious, and cultured. It had never been publicized to the outside world. Many people, even if they passed by, didn't know that this 1930s villa was actually the largest flagship store of Vacheron Constantin in China.
Therefore, there were very few customers here.
At this time in the afternoon, only Jiang Chen, Avril, and the coal boss's family were choosing watches.
Wu Libin looked Jiang Chen up and down and sneered from his nostrils.
Although he was a nouveau riche, Wu Libin was the kind of nouveau riche who pursued culture!
He had money, but he also had to have taste!
Where was taste reflected?
Naturally, it was the world's luxury goods.
Although he couldn't afford airplanes, yachts, private castles, manors, and islands, Wu Libin still worked hard on watches, cars, clothes, red wine, and other necessities.
He worked hard day and night and memorized most of the big brands.
In his own words, if he was willing to work so hard when he was in school, he would have been admitted to Shuimu Yan University.
Wu Libin deliberately memorized the world's luxury goods.
His purpose was to slap the poor in the face and curry favor with the rich in the face.
Wu Libin also heard yesterday that the House of Vacheron Constantin was in this classic villa. That was why he came here with his mistress. He wanted to pretend to be cultured and buy a wave of goods.
Coincidentally, Jiang Chen was wearing a custom-made Gucci outfit.
Wu Libin also happened to have not seen this style of clothing before. He sneered in his heart.
Tsk!
I don't know the brand?
This kid must be poor.
He didn't have money, but he brought his girlfriend in for a stroll and to admire the young Vacheron Constantin.
Eh? Girlfriend?
His gaze fell on Avril again!
Instantly, his eyeballs almost popped out!
Avril, a mixed-blood beauty, blonde shoulder-length, fashionable, and with an explosive figure! The mixed-blood beauty's temperament was also very unique!
Wu Libin was dumbfounded.
Looking at Avril surrounding the young and handsome Jiang Chen, and then looking at the vulgar mistress beside him, Wu Libin's heart suddenly felt unbalanced.
Damn!
I spent at least 5 million on this mistress in a year!
But compared to this mixed-blood girlfriend, she was like a hen!
She wanted looks, temperament, body, taste, knowledge …
Everything was blown up.
On the other hand, Avril was so nice to Jiang Chen. She was so considerate. She had chosen a watch for Jiang Chen. She was so gentle and considerate. There was love in her eyes. Wu Libin felt even angrier.
d!
A poor kid who can't afford a Vacheron Constantin is not worthy of such a goddess.
Suddenly, Wu Libin's eyes lit up.
Show my strength, show my masculine charm!
This mixed-blood beauty might recognize who the better man is and choose me!
Hehe …
Jiang Chen was looking for a watch with Avril. He felt that this heritage series Long Hui watch was not bad.
A beautiful shop assistant was also earnestly promoting this Long Hui watch.
"Sir, you have good taste. This Long Hui watch is a Vacheron Constantin that is specially designed for high-end consumers in China. The face of this watch is engraved with a Chinese dragon that is playing with pearls in the clouds. It suits the temperament of the elite men in China. "
Jiang Chen nodded. He also felt that this Long Hui watch was very suitable for his taste. He was about to ask about the price.
Suddenly, the nouveau riche Wu Libin interrupted. "I like this watch. Haha, I'll buy it!"
The beautiful shop assistant was surprised. "But this gentleman (Jiang Chen) is already looking at it."
"What's the use of him looking at it?" Wu Libin sneered and said to Jiang Chen, "Can he afford it? Little girl, you're doing business too! You don't know how to judge a person's character! "
He continued to mock, "Young man, since you're so young and have no money, don't come in and mess around. You're affecting other people's business. Only people like me who have the ability can afford the branded watches here! "
Then, he took out a bank card.
"Card …"
The beautiful shop assistant asked meekly, "Sir, aren't you going to ask about the price of this watch?"
Wu Libin was eager to show off in front of the mixed-blood beauty, Avril. He waved his hand proudly. "I don't ask about the price when I buy things!"
"If you ask about the price, you're poor! I, the rich, never ask about the price! "
Avril frowned.
Was this person crazy?
Avril was not polite at all. She retorted domineeringly, "What's wrong with you? You're like a robber? No matter where it was, this was a very rude behavior. Whether you have money or not, this behavior shows that you have no manners. Even if you buy a Vacheron Constantin, you have no sense of fashion and no sense of nobility! "
“”
Wu Libin did not expect that showing off in front of Avril and buying Jiang Chen's Vacheron Constantin would not make the beauty like him.
He vomited blood after being lectured by the beauty.
Angry!
"Hmph! What sense of fashion? What nobility! "
Wu Libin said angrily. "I have money! I can afford it. That's the hard truth! No matter how noble the young man next to you is, if he can't afford it, the other party won't give it to him. It's useless! "
At this time, the beautiful shop assistant came back. She smiled awkwardly and politely. "I'm sorry, sir. Your card has been swiped and the balance is insufficient."
"What?"
Wu Libin jumped up. "I have ten thousand on my card! How can it be insufficient? "
Angry!
The beautiful shop assistant said carefully, "But, sir, this Dragon Hui is our Vacheron Constantin's heritage series. It's a collector's item and the price is twelve million!"
"What? Ten million? "
Wu Libin was stunned!
He did have money, but he could not bear to buy it. It was painful!
He only spent five million a year to keep a mistress!
It's just a small watch, and you want me to pay 12 million?
He had heard of Vacheron Constantin and came over to join in the fun. He thought that he would only spend a million to buy a branded watch.
But he did not expect that a random watch here would cost ten million?
He was busy stealing Jiang Chen's limelight and even said that he would not ask about the price!
Now he knew the price.
Awkward!
He was still talking nonsense and mocking Jiang Chen for not being able to afford it. But now …
He was slapped in the face.
Pfft …
Jiang Chen and Avril could not help but laugh!
It was too funny!
Wu Libin's face turned red. He was exasperated. "What watch is worth ten million? So expensive? This is a scam! I went to the counter and asked. Vacheron Constantin is only a million! "
He covered his mouth.
Vacheron Constantin was a scam? Wu Libin felt that he had just said something stupid.
"It's like this, sir."
The beautiful shop assistant felt that this person was being ridiculous, but she still explained in disdain and politely, "Vacheron Constantin is also divided into many series and grades. The counters in the shopping malls usually have entry-level and business-level products. But here, we are a flagship store in China! Palace and collector's items! Many of our counters do not have these items. This Dragon Hui is a collector's item, which is why it is so expensive. "
Wu Libin blushed.
He only understood after the shop assistant explained.
He had been so shallow in the past.
He thought that he had money and could look down on Vacheron Constantin, thinking that he could buy whatever he wanted. It turned out that he had not been to a real palace or collector's flagship store!
The watches here started at a million and could go up to ten million!
At the side, a male shop assistant could not stand it and said disdainfully, "Sir, look at the location of our shop! In the center of the capital, a villa from 1930, a protected historical site. It is full of historical and cultural aura. Just the rent alone is a few million a month.
If you really think that twelve million is expensive, we can recommend you a model that is less than ten thousand! "
Wu Libin's face turned red.
This was too embarrassing. If he accepted the shop assistant's suggestion!
That would be too degrading!
Jiang Chen stood at the side and watched the show quietly.
Wu Libin wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Avril was laughing so hard that she could not straighten her back.
"Forget it!"
Wu Libin turned his head and saw Jiang Chen watching the show. He was unhappy and said angrily, "If you have the ability, buy it!"
He did not believe it!
Jiang Chen looked like a handsome young man who had just graduated from school. Even the mistress beside him was stunned. How could he be so rich at such a young age? How could he afford a ten million dollar watch?
Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen shook his head.
Wu Libin laughed hysterically. "I told you, you can't afford it! Why are you acting cool in front of me? "
He wanted to continue talking, but Jiang Chen said calmly, "If you like this Dragon Radiance watch, it means that this watch is not good enough."
In fact, Jiang Chen felt that this Dragon Radiance watch might be made by Vacheron Constantin to please the Chinese people. It was too utilitarian, and Jiang Chen did not like the style of the watch.
Now, there was silence.
"If I like it, it means that this watch is not good enough?" Wu Libin was furious. "If you have the ability, buy a more expensive one!"
"I have already found something I like." Jiang Chen pointed at the center of the shop, which was protected by anti-theft glass.
Vacheron Constantin Crocodile Totem watch!
In the entire villa, it was the most expensive, most noble, and most closely guarded one!
"Sir, are you sure you want this watch? This one costs 20.88 million. "
"I'll take it."
What?
20.88 million?!
Wu Libin's eyes almost popped out!
The mistress beside him dropped her handbag on the floor!
It was unbelievable.
This young man actually chose a 20 million dollar watch!
Wu Libin and the mistress were doubting their lives!
The beautiful shop assistant was very fond of the polite and elegant Jiang Chen. She nodded and smiled. "I'll get it for you right away, sir."
Originally, this Vacheron Constantin Crocodile Totem watch was the treasure of the shop, and not just any customer could look at it.
But Jiang Chen's temperament, manner, and manner of speech made the shop assistant not dare to underestimate him. They were full of respect for him.
After all, this was Vacheron Constantin's flagship store in China. They had seen many rich people, and they were more outgoing than Wu Libin.
They respectfully took off the Vacheron Constantin Crocodile Totem watch and handed it to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen played with this 20 million dollar watch and said to Avril, "This is the watch you recommended just now, right?"
"Yes, it is." Avril was satisfied with being recognized. She explained to Jiang Chen, "The Vacheron Constantin Imperial Totem watch is the most expensive watch in Vacheron Constantin. Of course, it is almost 10% of the most expensive watch in the world. There are very few watches with a price higher than this. Also, I feel that it suits your temperament at first glance."
In one sentence!
20 million Vacheron Constantin Crocodile Totem watch was the best in the world!
Jiang Chen smiled. "Then, wrap it up."
He handed a card to the beautiful shop assistant.
The beautiful shop assistant was surprised!
The handsome shop assistant beside her also opened his eyes wide!
Shock!
A 20 million dollar watch was really sold just like that!
All the shop assistants were excited!
Commissions.
How much commission could they get from a 20 million dollar watch?
The beautiful shop assistant suppressed her excitement and opened the bill. She swiped the card and wrapped the Crocodile Totem watch for Jiang Chen. She said respectfully,
"Mr. Jiang, you have automatically become a platinum member of Vacheron Constantin. You will enjoy Vacheron Constantin's lifetime free maintenance and other services. You can make any request at any store, and we will do our best to help you. "
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded. He left with Avril.
The nouveau riche, Wu Libin, and his mistress were stunned as they watched Jiang Chen leave.
"Sir, do you want to buy it?"
The shop assistant coughed on purpose to embarrass him.
"I …" Wu Libin left dejectedly.
His face was covered in dust!
