Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 1216 29 billion
Laila held it in her hand, and saw a dress that clearly mixed Chinese and Western styles on the white manuscript paper.It is said to be a mixture of Chinese and Western, because there are oriental styles and some embroidery on the collar and front of the collar, while other places are more western.

"This feels a bit weird." She is not very optimistic about this design.It's a good idea to combine Chinese and Western characteristics, but the one in front of me is not very well done. It feels like the mixture is too abrupt, as if it was forced to be pulled together.

Janet took the design draft and sighed softly: "I don't think it's right either. There are many ideas in my mind, but the taste changes when I put them on paper, and I don't have the feeling I want at all. Why is your dress What’s wrong with it?” Every time she couldn’t find inspiration, she would ask her daughter for her thoughts, and this time when she encountered difficulties, she was no exception.

Laila handed the design draft to Li Zhimu, wanting to hear his opinion.

This made Li Zhimu embarrassed.Talking about things related to embroidery, he may be able to talk a lot at length, and even explain the origin and history of each era and each embroidery clearly.But this kind of...

"I don't know about this either." He smiled wryly.

Thinking of him as an old man, how could he know much about women's clothes?Even buying clothes is to throw out the card directly, let alone a design draft.

Lila smiled and shook her head, also feeling that she had made a common sense mistake.Who said that the boss of the embroidery workshop will definitely understand these things?

She flipped through a few design drafts, and found that they all had the same problem, that is, the places that should be blended were not merged, the way of connection was too rigid, and...

and many more!

She suddenly felt as if she had found the problem.

"Mom, I think your idea of ​​mixing East and West is good. But you know more about Western than Eastern culture, so in your design, what you understand as Eastern is not really true. Oriental style."

In fact, the ones she designed are not ugly.Perhaps in the eyes of some Westerners, the clothes are still very beautiful, but in the eyes of Leila and Li Zhimu, or any Easterner, they may be weird designs.

Janet also tried oriental-style clothing before, but at that time it was a pure style without adding these embroidery, but now she added it, and the problem came out.

Janet said with a bitter face, "What should I do then? I'm going to learn oriental culture now?" She is already a grandmother, and it is too late to go to a teacher to teach her now?
And when she comes back to design after she has learned it, will she still have inspiration?

At the beginning, she did not study oriental culture like Laila did, because she felt that the things over there were too difficult, whether it was Chinese characters or history, everything seemed to be bullying foreigners.Now that I think about it, maybe at that time I really should have followed suit. Even Laila has learned so well, how can she not be too far behind?
"It doesn't need to be like that." Laila has no objection to living and learning, but her job is still Western-style haute couture, and the Eastern style may be put aside by her at any time, and she does not expect her to You can always maintain the enthusiasm you want to study.

She turned to Li Zhimu: "Is it convenient for Fang to take some photos of finished products or patterns from your embroidery workshop for her to use as a reference?"

She knew that this request might be a little too much, and the pattern could be regarded as a "commercial secret" level for the embroidery workshop.But Janet knows too little about embroidery, and the oriental embroidery that appears on her design draft is biased towards western patterns, which is why her design looks a little strange.

But I can't really blame her for this. Firstly, she doesn't know much about oriental culture, and secondly, she doesn't know much about embroidery patterns.How can it be possible to design an oriental embroidery pattern by guessing and relying on a western perspective?
So Laila wanted to come up with some patterns, so that Janet could see a little more and understand a little more, so that she would not design some strange embroidery again.

Li Zhimu agreed unexpectedly: "That's no problem. But the previous pattern is gone, I'll ask someone to design a few more new ones, okay?"

Laila asked curiously, "Aren't you worried about the pattern leaking out?"

"It doesn't matter if it's leaked out." Li Zhimu grinned, his white teeth glistening against his wheat-colored complexion.

"We will only make each pattern once in our embroidery workshop. We will destroy the used ones directly to ensure that they will not appear on another embroidery work. We will not use these for your work. No I don’t trust your secrecy, but make sure that each of our guests gets a unique piece of embroidery in the world. Of course, if you want to use it in the design, it’s no problem.”

His words made Lyra understand his ambition at once.It seems that the day he built the embroidery workshop, he had already decided to send it to the highest position.

Being able to make such a decision is due to his powerful means, and it is also related to the background he has.Without strong support behind it, it is really not that simple to realize it based on one's own ideas.

Thanks to the speed and convenience of the Internet, and the strength of the designers of the embroidery workshop, some of the newly designed patterns were passed to Janet in a few days.Moreover, Li Zhimu also found some patterns that have been circulated outside, are easier to find, and are more representative.

In order to make the most of this time, he even took over several designers directly, and they personally explained the meaning of some patterns to Janet.The next step is to see how she understands those patterns and uses them in her own designs.

Laila was arranging everything, so she didn't ask about things there.What she is most concerned about now is the box office of her own movie, because at this time the global box office has reached 29 billion.

With the power of those few photos, the movie's box office has had a very significant increase.But I have to say that it has been released for too long, and too many people have seen it.This is no longer the era of "Titanic", which can be released for hundreds of days.

The popularity of hype photos is very effective, but unfortunately any popularity is time-sensitive, almost half a month, or a month, the popularity will disappear.

In the past, some theaters have successively released movies.There are not many theaters that are still showing it. At least in the eyes of professionals, it is quite a good result to get a few million more.
