Chapter 520 - All Are Trash
Chapter 520 of "City's Best Divine Doctor" opens presenting twists: It was almost July, and summer was already half over.However, Xingyue Groupâs summer lingerie designs... Keep following!
It was almost July, and summer was already half over.
However, Xingyue Groupâs summer lingerie designs were not yet completed, let alone available for sale.
Their direct-operated stores and franchise stores were still selling last yearâs high-end lingerie designs.
This had already seriously affected the development of Xingyue Group.
But Shen Yueru was unsatisfied with all the designs produced by Xingyue Groupâs design departments.
If even she couldnât approve them, releasing them directly to the market would definitely harm the companyâs brand reputation.
It was better not to release them at all for now.
However, the longer this delay continued, the more it would affect the companyâs development and profits.
âTake a look at these works!â
Shen Yueru said.
Secretary Liu was even more surprised.
She was already amazed that this young man was so skilled in medicine at such a young age.
She didnât expect that now President Shen would let Ye Qiu see the design departmentâs works.
Generally, the designs from the design department, whether before or after they were launched, were protected by patents and company and legal regulations, and were not to be shown to outsiders.
She didnât expect that President Shen would directly show them to Ye Qiu.
Seeing Ye Qiu sitting on the sofa, Shen Yueru had to come out from her office chair, sit next to Ye Qiu, and hand over the latest lingerie design drawings from the design department for Ye Qiu to see.
Ye Qiu took them and saw that they were all sets of bras and womenâs underwear design drawings, along with their colors, looking very realistic.
Ye Qiu looked at one design drawing after another, occasionally glancing at Shen Yueru.
Being stared at like that by Ye Qiu, Shen Yueru felt a bit angry.
She thought Ye Qiu must be imagining how these lingerie designs would look on her.
Just now, when Shen Yueru had come in from outside, Ye Qiu had already been observing this young, tall, and beautiful president.
She was wearing a Lolita dress, but not black stockings, revealing her fair skin and long legs.
Now, as Ye Qiu looked Shen Yueru up and down, he realized that Shen Yueru really did have the potential to be a female model.
But Shen Yueru was the female president of Xingyue Group; how could she possibly become an ordinary female model?
âWell, what do you think?â
Seeing that Ye Qiu was not speaking, Shen Yueru wasnât sure if Ye Qiu really understood or was just pretending.
âHonestly, these design drawings are trash.â
Trash, really trash!
Shen Yueru was stunned!
Secretary Liu couldnât believe it either.
She hadnât expected Ye Qiu to say something like that.
Since Shen Yueru had brought these design drawings here, it meant they were the best summer lingerie design drawings from the design department.
Yet, in Ye Qiuâs eyes, they turned out to be trashy works.
âWhy?â
âThey are too old-fashioned and lack innovation.
If produced according to these design drawings, there might be a portion of conservative women willing to buy them.
But the vast majority of women definitely wouldnât spend so much money on them.â
Ye Qiu said.
He remembered that time he went with Liu Lingxiu, Li Qianqian, Han Xiaowan, Zhou Muling, and even his sister Ye Xue to those lingerie boutiques and saw those clothes.
He found that, aside from the price differences, domestic and foreign lingerie also differed in terms of humane design.
âHow much would it cost to produce a set of these lingerie designs?â
Ye Qiu asked.
âCheaper ones are two or three thousand, and the more expensive ones are four or five thousand.â
âTwo or three thousand?
I wouldnât take them even if you gave me twenty or thirty for free!â
Ye Qiu said.
Shen Yueru and Secretary Liu didnât know what to say upon hearing this.
If the designers at Xingyue Group heard it, they might slap him.
âThese are made from silk, top-grade silk.
The raw materials alone cost two or three hundred at the very least.
How could they be worth only twenty or thirty?â
Shen Yueru explained.
âThatâs because youâre wasting materials, so theyâre not worth much.â
Ye Qiu said flatly.
âThen according to you, how should we design this summerâs womenâs lingerie?â
Shen Yueru asked.
Actually, Shen Yueru found Ye Qiu different because when Ye Qiu had been invited to the Shen family as a guest, he chatted with Shen Zhigang about silk and clothing design, and that was when Shen Yueru noticed that Ye Qiu might have a unique talent in this area.
Ye Qiuâs medical skills were very impressive and mysterious; Shen Yueru knew this.
But to say that Ye Qiu was knowledgeable in clothing design, if he hadnât chatted about it with her father, she would never believe it.
Of course, this time she just wanted Ye Qiu to take a look.
âThis isnât something that can be explained in a few words.â
After all, lingerie is segmented by age.
For young girls, young women, married women, middle-aged women, and elderly women, the underwear they wear differs.
Moreover, lingerie designed for different classes is certainly different.
If itâs for ordinary people, no matter how good the design is, if itâs too expensive, they wonât afford it.
If itâs for high-end consumers, it needs further segmentation.
From what Shen Yueru said, cheaper ones were two or three thousand, and pricier ones four or five thousand, nearly a monthâs, or even two monthsâ, salary for an average person.
So this was targeting high-end consumers.
After all, women with average incomes would not spend a monthâs salary on a set of lingerie; wouldnât they need money for other things as well?
âLetâs go to the meeting room.
Iâll get those designers over for a discussion.
If you can help me this time, Iâll give you a reward.â
âBut you called me not for lingerie design, but because your sister had a problem.â
Ye Qiu said.
He had received Shen Yueruâs call and hadnât expected to come over for womenâs lingerie design, but rather because of her sister.
Ye Qiu thought Shen Xingru wasnât feeling well and wanted to help her.
âMy sister is fine.
Whatâs wrong with her?â
Shen Yueru asked, puzzled.
