I Am A Prodigy

The second was texture!

The third was the brand!

Once those three points were down, any woman would go crazy about it. Examples of that would be Chanel or Hermès.

The shape of the bag depends on the design and the texture of the bag depends on the material. The material and design were often complementary. A bag that was designed beautifully would not necessarily be easy to create. The reality must also be taken into account. Some designs were impossible to complete because of material constraints.

Ye Lingchen’s design was to use the python skin to create the trendiest yet most individualistic piece there ever was. It would be the absolute pinnacle of texture and appearance.

However, the subject of a trademark or brand name was worthy of some discussion.

As far as the current luxury goods market was concerned, it was almost too saturated with luxury brands. Creating a new luxury brand that would be recognized by the public was difficult and time-consuming.

Therefore, what Ye Lingchen wanted was to ride on Vatti as the driving force!

The way Ye Lingchen proposed to the partnership was to borrow the Vatti brand. He wanted to independently create an exclusive luxury series for Vatti!

At present, Vatti was only a top domestic brand. It was not in the same class as an international luxury brand.

What Ye Lingchen wanted was equivalent to becoming a department of Vatti’s, but that department was completely independent and Ye Lingchen designed everything by himself. He would then ask Vatti for help in production and even the price of the product was set by Ye Lingchen himself!

Profit would then be divided 50-50!

It was a very demanding requirement, which was why Ma Ding called Ye Lingchen overbearing.

If it were not for Jia Di’s sake, Ma Ding would treat the request as a joke.

“Grandmaster Ye, Vatti is considered a notable figure in this entire world. If your request was made known, Vatti will lose all dignity!” Ma Ding looked at Ye Lingchen and said, “Plus… if we really do according to what you say, will you be subservient to Vatti in the future, or will Vatti be subservient to you?”

“There is no question of subservience, only a win-win situation!” Ye Lingchen shook his head. “I can ensure that Vatti becomes the top among the world’s luxury brands. Isn’t that enough?”

Ma Ding frowned deeply and stared at Ye Lingchen. Over the years, Vatti had been thinking of ways to go international, but they were unfortunately rejected by foreign brands and found it difficult to make their mark.

Luxury goods were undoubtedly a highly profitable industry. It was a shame that the people from China were proud of owning luxury goods from other countries and even let their money flow to other countries!

“Are you really that confident?” Ma Ding asked.

“This isn’t self-confidence. It’s capability!” Ye Lingchen’s eyes shone brightly. There was one sentence he did not say: Vatti did not choose him, but he chose Vatti!

“Okay! We can try this with you!” Ma Ding pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and exclaimed, as if he had made some major decision.

His determination was beyond Ye Lingchen’s expectations.

“Grandmaster Ye, since Chairman Jia has recommended you to me, I hope you won’t let me down!” Ma Ding looked very solemn. “I hope that you’ll show me a surprise for our first partnership. If it fails, our cooperation will be ended at once and there’s no further need to mention it in the future!”

“Don’t worry, it’ll succeed,” Ye Lingchen said with a light smile.

“Okay! I’ll bet on it!” Ma Ding had a fierce look in his eyes and he said, “As for the design and giant python’s skin, leave it to Chairman Jia. My region is the only one that can help you produce it.”

Vatti was all over China, with six distinct regions in Capital. Ma Ding was probably in charge of that particular region.

Ye Lingchen could not help but glance at him respectably. It seemed that Ma Ding had only agreed to cooperate with him privately, behind the back of the headquarters. Ma Ding was also probably under a lot of pressure because of that.

“May we have a pleasant cooperation.”

…

At the same time, Y Cosmetics.

It was much livelier than ever in the makeup shop that day because they had witnessed a miracle on the same date the previous month. Many were curious to see if another miracle would happen again.

Among those people were individuals who went there on account of the store’s reputation, while others did not believe in miracles at all. Others however…went there just to post to their WeChat Moments.

“I heard about Y Cosmetics’ magic last time, but unfortunately, I didn’t witness it with my own eyes. I have no idea if it’s true or not.”

“I think there is a lot of suspicions that it’s just hype! This year there’s plenty of things that were done just for the hype.”

“I’m telling you, what happened last time is real. I was there and I saw—with my own eyes—that forty-something aunt was made to look like she was in her twenties!”

“Really? It’s really that awesome?”

“Whether it’s real or not, let’s see it for ourselves this time.”

“Y Cosmetics is in for tragedy this time. I heard that Qiao Shanshan is the one who won the prize! How will they be able to hide the scar on her face?”

“Yeah! It’s makeup, not plastic surgery. Is it impossible to change a face? Tough luck for Y Cosmetics. It was a good gimmick initially, but they’re shooting themselves in the foot with the second draw, hahaha…”

…

The flurry of discussions was ignored and the makeup shop was running in an orderly manner. Although Zhang Yunxi was nervous, she still maintained her composure. Lingchen had already said that, so she would not let herself down.

Time passed and it was gradually noon. The scorching sun was fiery-hot and hung right at the center of the sky.

Just then, a figure wearing a black dress slowly walked toward Y Cosmetics. She had a great shape, but it was odd that her entire head was wrapped in a layer of black cloth, even in that kind of weather.

That strange fashion sense attracted everyone’s attention at once. Everyone guessed her identity at once when they saw where she was heading.

The voices that were discussing lowered slowly, but it became even noisier. The topic had shifted to that woman.

The figure’s delicate body trembled visibly under everyone’s whispers. Her hands wrapped her face more forcefully, and she quickened her pace.

In the past month, Qiao Shanshan had truly experienced the cruelness of falling from the peak in one fell swoop. The people all shunned her, and she went from a popular goddess to the subject of ridicule.

Her career was ruined, her face was ruined, and her boyfriend who had wooed her with so much effort in the past was disgusted by her. Even her best friend renounced their friendship. At that moment, human emotion and well-being were the things that she was desperate for in the world.

She did not know where her life would end up and she had no clue what kind of attitude she should use to face the world. She wanted to weather through it and she wanted to be strong, but she could never bear it whenever she saw the strange looks from everyone.

She even thought about leaving that cold world. In fact, she had recently been preparing to leave, that was…until she received an invitation from Y Cosmetics.

Lucky customer?

Was she considered lucky?

Qiao Shanshan laughed at herself, but she was taken aback when she saw the introduction to Y Cosmetics’.

Make magic out of decay? Rejuvenating and recovering one’s youthful vigor?
