Section 57 The third start! (3)

I contacted the New York City Department at the first time for a price of $5,035 and paid in one lump sum, and there were too many tasks to be done: the window glass was full of holes, and even some of them were neat, they were gray, so I could just change them all. None of the lighting lamps could be lit up, and someone had to be replaced. The wires of the power cord were too old to accommodate the needs of large equipment. There were sanitary dead corners everywhere in the warehouse, causing mosquitoes to fly everywhere, and even the trash can outside the gate was hired by him to move to the street corner.

After the heating pipe was laid, Ai Fei began to formally purchase equipment, such as sewing machines, sewing machines, packaging machines, belt pullers, and steam ironing machines. However, the last equipment cost him $800! However, compared with the overall expenditure, this is nothing: after he arranged all the staff to work in the warehouse, Yumiya made a calculation with him. From renting the house to officially starting production, the total expenditure was 155,670 US dollars! It was almost overwhelmed!

Ai Fei felt extremely painful in his heart, and he had to comfort her on the surface: "Don't worry, if you don't have a small fortune, you won't have a big fortune! When I was in Japan, didn't I experience the dilemma after buying a schoolchild club? Compared to that time, don't you still have some savings now? Don't worry, when the clothing on the first batch of orders comes out, we can get all the money we invested back!"

"Don't forget, it's the end of September soon, and we will prepare a month's salary for all employees! This is another considerable expense!" Yumiya Jingzi muttered: "Why have you always spent money in recent times? Oh, what are Xiao Aijun going to use this replaced studio as a way?"

"I think if you decorate it here and act as a brand dealership? Guests can leave their needs here and then sell the clothes they make. What do you think?"

"It suddenly became empty, it really makes people feel... confused! Will anyone think that our studio is no longer open?"

Ai Fei suddenly had a strange thought in his heart. This was a feeling that had never happened before. Facing Yu Gong's familiar face, he felt a burst of excitement! He quickly covered up his eyes and looked over perfunctorily: "Xiao Ai Jun? I'm talking to you!"

"Oh, yes. What did you say?" Ai Fei was a little disgusted. Naturally, he became flustered: "No, there will be no situation you are worried about. We are just doing a very simple decoration. The customer should not think that we closed because we temporarily stopped business. However, this matter is indeed faster..."

Aimyo keenly discovered his abnormality, how could he speak so confusingly: "…?"

Ai Fei also noticed the problem and smiled concealedly: "Yugong, I think we will gradually shift our work to the production factory during the next period of time. I am considering choosing one or two girls to be responsible for the reception in the specialty store? And it is best to have a certain cutting foundation. Well, you will be responsible for the specific daily work."

"What about you?"

"I'm afraid I have to put more energy into the factory, and you see it. Now I don't have any helpers around me who can let go, so I have to do a lot of things myself."

“…………”

"No, I don't have anything else. The meaning is that your work has been done very well, especially as a woman or a Japanese woman. I think it is the result of your efforts in the United States. However, you can't help with some professional work, and it has nothing to do with your ability." Ai Fei waved his hand and stopped Ai Miyagi from saying nothing: "I will never ask you to design clothes like me, nor will you ask you to deal with cutting tools and clothes every day like Miss Monica and others. You are different from them, and you are responsible for those more important responsibilities for this small company. So, don't think you have not provided me with greater help. Do you understand?"

"Hi! I understand."

The sudden renovation of the studio caught many people off guard, including Macy's Department Store, which reached an agreement with his studio: He booked a contract with more than the total number of hunting suits and jackets, and paid a deposit of 20 yuan. Why did he suddenly close the door? Could it be that he absconded with the money?

Before they could send someone to contact Ai Fei, the studio opened the door again, but this time it was very different from the last time. First, the storefront was completely renovated and some messy office utensils were removed. There were only a few clothes in the large business hall placed on the clothes rack. Next to it was a huge dressing mirror and a separate space - there was a fitting room.

Such decoration is no big difference from many newly emerging clothing custom houses in New York. So many people gave up the idea of ​​going to the police station to report and arrest this annoying Japanese - he just decorated it? But a problem quickly emerged: it is impossible to make clothing in such a pattern. Where is his production department?

Ai Fei was too lazy to care about other people's questions about him, and he devoted all his energy to the production of the new factory. He gave the factory a very tacky name: Aike Clothing Factory. Together with the original Monica and others, plus the newly appointed female workers, the number of tailors in Aike Clothing Factory has reached 44, which is quite a lot. What makes people most happy is that these people have received professional clothing production training, and making clothing is no problem at all. Generally, an ordinary female worker can make a hunting suit every two to three days, which greatly alleviates the pressure caused by the increase in orders.

However, the large number of men's clothing products left the factory and received a large amount of funds, but it still couldn't satisfy him: in his heart, he was still thinking about the women's clothing conference! Until now, he still couldn't get out of the shadow of the failure of the first (Valentine's Day)! Too bad, that was his first shot in the United States, how could he end up with a soundless result?

A failure did not have a big impact on Ai Fei, but he was a little unwilling to accept it, so he was going to try again! And this time, the requirements for the production of clothing and the use of fabrics, of course, the most important thing is that his own design has taken a lot of time and energy. Looking at the design drawings appearing on the paper, Ai Fei nodded with satisfaction: "Look at what will happen this time? The last cup will not appear again, right? Well, what we have to do next is the model choice! Hell, we have to spend money again!"

After dinner, Yumiya Jingzi packed the dishes and chatted with him as if he was talking about a trivial matter inadvertently: "Ai Jun? Miss Grace came to the studio again today. Oh, it's a brand store."

"Is that true?" Ai Fei was not very interested in this topic: "Is there anything wrong?"

"Nothing happened, I just sat in the brand store for a while and left." Yugong wiped his hands, poured him a cup of coffee and brought it over: "But I see, she seems to be a little regretful about not seeing you. Ai Jun, have you listened to me?"

"So it's true that my animation works are not wrong!" He suddenly said in a daze: "Will all Japanese women become so savage when they reach a certain point?"

Yumiya Jingzi's face suddenly turned red, and her hands and feet seemed to have no place to put them in: "What did you say? Are you doing well now?"

Ai Fei smiled and put down his brush: "Okay, I heard it all. Miss Grace has been here and left, and it seems a bit disappointed not to see me! Yugong, you are really good at association! You don't think she came to the brand store specifically for me, right? Or do you think I can have any development with an American girl like Grace?"

"But... Isn't it because Ai Jun talked to Mrs. Yukiko before going abroad that you would find an American girl to be your wife?"

"Hahahaha!" Ai Fei burst into laughter: "Will you take it seriously if you joke? Hey? How do you know that if you do this? Did my mother tell you?"

Yumiya Jingko put down the big stone in her heart and smiled: "But, don't you really think Miss Grace is a very beautiful girl? Well, she seems to be about the same age as you!"

"Three years older. She is more than me." Ai Fei was so confused that he had no painting that he put down his pen in his hand: "Yumiya, you have to know that a girl like Grace is definitely not the one I can choose, especially when choosing to make her my wife! Not to mention anything else, just American saliva can drown me! Do you think they will let a Japanese marry such an American girl back to Japan? Don't joke! So, for her, whether I am or Yumiya, you can just treat her as a good customer! The most amazing thing is to date her as a friend, more, hum! Don't even think about it!"

Yugong turned his head naughtyly at him: "So that's how Xiao Aijun really thinks?"

"Is there anything else?" Ai Fei looked at her with a funny look, reached out and picked up the coffee: "Or what do you expect me to think?"

"No!" Yumiya's face turned redder: "You mean, she is three years older than you?"

"Yes." He slowly stirred the coffee cup: "What are you laughing at? Why are you happy? Hello! Why are your eyes so unscrupulous?"

Looking at Ai Fei who was like a dumb goose, Yugong Jingzi bent down with a smile.

Grace took a hot shower in her own apartment in New York and walked out of the bathroom in her simple pajamas: "What are some more instructions tonight? Miss Kelly?"

"No, no more!" The beauty who had just left the bath was wrapped in a large bath towel, surrounding her head with blonde hair. The faint fragrance on her body made the man intoxicated: "Is there anything else? David?"

"Oh, no, sorry, then, good night!"

Seeing his assistant walking out of the bedroom in a panic, Grace sneered without a trace, and remembered what Mr. Chaplin had said to him for no reason. It seems that what he said was extremely correct! No matter when, women are too beautiful, they are always a kind of harm to themselves and others! Hell, just because they are beautiful, they will make men have such thoughts? Guys who don’t think with their brains!

She did take Ai Fei's studio during the day, but it had completely changed. It's okay, she didn't even see Mr. Ike's face? She was a little polite. She explained to herself for a long time, but her English still had a very heavy accent, which sounded a bit difficult. She said that he seemed to have moved the formal production factory to other places now, and it seemed that he had hired a lot of employees!

For Ai Fei, Grace herself didn't know what kind of consideration she was close to him. She seemed to be just an ordinary friend, but in her heart she didn't agree with such a simple relationship, but if she really wanted to have a closer relationship with this Japanese? Grace shook her head slowly: "This is not the case!"

But what exactly is it? I'm afraid she can't even give an answer. If she first discovered one aspect of Ai Fei's personality in the restaurant and began to have a little affection for him, this kind of favor has gradually disappeared with the passage of time, and in his studio, for smoking, he left for the sake of smoking, which was equivalent to throwing the little bit of favor out of the sky. Next was Robbie's sudden death, which made her start to re-examine the meaning of life and re-examine her own actions. Next was the belated letter of apology and the two of them met again in New York. Unlike the last time, this encounter seemed to be due to the incident of Ms. Ayumi Iko! Well, the anger he showed in this matter was very scary!

I heard from the Japanese woman in Arimiya that he seemed to be preparing for a second fashion show? Maybe he should go and have a look!

Of course, Ai Fei didn't know Grace's interest in him. He now devoted all his energy to the new fashion conference that was about to begin: the model's matter has been resolved. Although he still cursed these unscrupulous businessmen in his heart for a lot of prices, he had no choice but to stretch his head and be slaughtered. Who made you need it?

However, Americans are still very dedicated in terms of dedication. After signing a contract with him, 12 girls immediately came to his factory. In the next few days, these girls were completely handed over to him. What made him most satisfied was that the current model market in the United States (New York) has entered a preliminary development period, and various systems were introduced, which also point-to-point to indicate the respective rights and obligations of models and their employers in each cooperation. One of the important ones is that when the employer thinks it is necessary to design clothes and find a suitable female model to perform, he can propose it and design according to the other party's physical conditions with the consent of the other party.

Such a regulation made Ai Fei very happy, not because he started to make clothes according to the model's figure, but the rigid regulations on the model's body included: according to the contract, as long as the clothing is made according to their figure, it is necessary for the other party to maintain such a figure for a period of time before the performance begins, and he cannot finally get the clothes in but cannot be worn!

Ai Fei waited outside the locker room of the brand house for a while, and pushed a tall and plump female model from the inside. At this time, the model was not as slim as later generations. He often saw such skinnyness. He seemed to be plump as beauty. He walked a few steps in front of him. The short skirt on his body was paired with a foxtail fur scarf that was slanted on his shoulders. He put on an e. Ai Fei, who just watched quietly, but never spoke, and didn't know what he was thinking.

The girls were a little nervous, nothing else. The man in front of him was a man who rewritten the current situation of the modeling industry in New York! He launched a real-life modeling stage at his fashion show, and modern models developed from the fashion show he launched! Such an action will not be too much, let alone this is his second time choosing some female models for his own fashion conference. If you are lucky enough to get his guidance, can you make any new breakthroughs in your career? You must know that the female models he selected at the time have now become the most popular celebrities in the fashion industry in the United States!

Ai Fei's attention was not on the girls, and his spirit was used to consider this fashion show: he didn't have to worry too much about the girls' performance on the stage. The only problem was that it seemed a little thin! It seemed that something was missing. His hands were holding his cheeks, and he looked at it carefully, what was missing?

"Xiao Aijun?Xiao Aijun?"

“Eh?”

"Miss Kelly is here."

"Ah?" Ai Fei turned around and looked. Sure enough, Grace stood in the lobby of the brand house with a clever smile, nodding to him: "Good morning."

"Good morning!" Ai Fei nodded; "Miss Kelly, is it for customization this time?"

Grace ignored him and her eyes fell on several models present: "Is this the outfit you are going to launch at the next fashion show?"

"Yes. What do you think?"

"May I take a look at it?"

"sure."

Grace walked up to the girls and looked at their clothes carefully. Unlike the designs of some evening dresses I saw in Ai Fei's studio a few times, this time it was all about regular clothes displays, including long skirts, short tops, women's jackets, furs, and professional skirts specially added at the request of Monica and others.

In terms of design, Ai Fei referred to the characteristics of women's workplace clothing that were very common later. In such an era, he was a little ahead of the way. In terms of jackets alone, he designed a number of basic models evolved from military uniforms. One buckle, two buckles, single-breasted, and double-breasted as a very convenient semi-formal day wear. This kind of clothing that can be worn on any occasion can definitely cause a great sensation among the female customer base, especially among some working women! God knows that even a brand like Chanel only uses the combination of long and short skirts as the basic design concept in design!

Grace herself has been a model for a while and has her own unique vision and judgment about clothing, not to mention her and Coco? Chanel has a very good personal relationship and has learned a lot from the latter! Looking at the dazzling costume design in front of her, the girl sighed long and looked back at Ai Fei: "……………”

"What's wrong? Do you think it's not good?"

Grace smiled mysteriously: "There is a saying that seems to be said. A madman is one step ahead of this era, and a genius is one step ahead. People like you... who are many steps ahead... I don't know how to describe it!"
