Chapter 608 608. Shopper's Paradise

The new issue of Time magazine was released on time on Saturday. Once the content was announced, it immediately caused an uproar.

In less than an hour after the weekly magazine was officially put on sale, no less than ten media outlets publicly declared that Nie Wei was "getting carried away" and either directly or implicitly advised him to be down-to-earth.

In the eyes of this group of people, 'Hollywood' has simply become a sacred and inviolable place, and Nie Wei's words are completely overestimating his own abilities and delusional.

If there are those who oppose it, there will naturally be those who support it, and the number is even greater.

First of all, Nie Wei's fans are completely on Nie Wei's side. They completely believe that Nie Wei can do everything he says.

"You think it's impossible, but why do you think it's impossible for Nie Wei? It's like Nie Wei was able to win four trophies at the Golden Horse Awards, but you can only write some articles saying bad things about people behind their backs and live on."

"I dare to say that Nie Wei's talent is definitely the best in the world. Whatever he wants to do, he can definitely do it."

"European and American audiences are human beings too, why can't they be conquered?"

"Anyway, I think Nie Wei's words are very encouraging. People have ideals. It's fine if you don't support them. You still put on a mocking face and tell you that the moon in foreign countries is not necessarily rounder than that in China. I admire Nie Wei. This energy.”

In addition to fans, nearly a hundred media outlets reprinted the front page of this issue of Time Magazine and gave positive comments. Even the country’s Global Times published a column on its official website for this purpose. For "Young people in the new era should strive for their ideals."

Although Nie Wei's name was not mentioned in the entire content of the article, anyone who reads it will understand that this is the Global Times' affirmation of Nie Wei's speech in Time Magazine.

The most elusive thing is that this report quoted twice the famous sayings of a certain leader to praise Nie Wei. I don’t know if this was an unintentional move by the editor, or if someone was really behind it to support Nie Wei.

If it’s the latter, it’s really worth pondering. At least as soon as this report came out, some domestic media outlets that had previously called Huan Huan silenced their voices, deleted their blogs, and pretended that they had never said those words. appearance.

But this does not calm the anger of some people.

Soon, the first person in the entertainment industry to speak out for Nie Wei was not Shu Chang, Lin Yifei, or Wang Zhonglei. Instead, it was Feng Xiaogang, who was in the same company and was always written as Nie Wei's rival by the media.

Xiaogangpao seemed to be really angry this time. He directly criticized several media outlets on his blog, calling them maggots of society. He had no ideals and looked down on other people's ideals. He even went so far as to live in excrement. To throw shit on other people.

"Certain media in China always love to talk about a certain movie, whether it is good or bad, but in fact they don't understand movies at all. All they really know is celebrity gossip, but they all pretend to be movie experts. They are criticizing us professional directors and actors, doing the most despicable and despicable things from what they consider to be the highest point of morality. This is dirty!”

Feng Xiaogang published hundreds of words of articles, all of them criticizing a certain wave of media. Sometimes he wrote down a few hundred words of interesting words, without a single curse word, but it made the onlookers yell and curse. It was so cool, and it was completely worthy of his little name. Gangpao's name.

Following Director Feng's voice, many stars in the entertainment industry also published blogs one after another to express their opinions. The worst-case scenario would be to exchange bonds, send an 'awesome' expression, or express a heart or something like that. .

At the end of the day, more than a hundred well-known artists came out to support Nie Wei, and there were countless small artists. Someone who was interested made a rough calculation and said that in this incident, almost all well-known artists in the entertainment industry stood by. Nie Wei's side.

This popularity is a bit scary! ! !

Although Nie Wei's speech caused controversy in China, most people supported him. However, when this report was reprinted in Europe and the United States, the reaction there was a bit subtle.

Some media published articles saying that Nie Wei was a courageous person who was brave enough to take on challenges.

Some media also ridiculed Nie Wei for not overestimating his abilities and being an arrogant person.

However, the controversy in the media has really attracted the attention of many European and American citizens. Because of this incident, Nie Wei has gained a wave of popularity around the world. Regardless of good or bad, at least his popularity has increased.

As the person involved, Nie Wei did not respond to everyone's controversy from beginning to end. It was as if this report was not an interview with him, and he continued to do the work he was supposed to do according to his schedule.

After all, no matter how much you argue about some things, it's useless. In the end, results still have to speak for themselves.

Now Nie Wei is waiting for the moment when the special effects team he invested a lot of money in training will come out. That is when Nie Wei starts to sound the clarion call to attack Hollywood. According to Nie Wei's understanding, this day is not far away.

A week after the report came out, Stars Mall officially opened for business.

Qian Li is the leader of the VIP service team of Fanxing Shopping Center. Her specific responsibility is to provide one-to-one butler stone service to VIP users of the shopping mall.

And the one hundred and twenty men and women in this service group are not simple either.

Not only does the appearance require a proper appearance, but there are also certain standards for height. That’s not all. There are also requirements for academic qualifications. After reaching these standards, you only get a quasi-qualification. Then there is a three-month training period. All you learn are the brand values ​​of various merchants in the shopping center, their core concepts, the styles of items sold, etc.

It can be said that after three months of training, even the unqualified batch will become a brand expert, and the qualified 120 employees basically know the hundreds of brand stores in this shopping center. As long as the customer does not deliberately make things difficult, basically any demand, as long as the mall can meet it, they can take the customer to find it.

As for the remaining hospitality etiquette, including standing posture, smile, etc., it is completely the most basic.

The time is getting closer and closer to eight o'clock. When there is only one minute left before eight o'clock, Qian Li quietly took out a small mirror, secretly checked her makeup again, and then showed a perfect smile.

"OK, Qian Li, you can do it." Secretly cheering herself up, Qian Li stood up straight, waiting for the first VIP customer of the shopping center to appear.

At this time, outside, Nie Wei also held a pair of scissors and cut the red silk for the opening ceremony with his own hands under the constant filming of the media.

Fanxing Shopping Center, officially opened for business!

Nie Wei led a group of celebrities and artists to retreat, and customers who had been waiting for a long time began to pour into the mall.

"The number of people in the mall exceeds 500."

"The number of customers in the mall exceeds 1,000, and it is still increasing. It has exceeded 1,200."

"Report, the number of customers in the mall has exceeded 2,000."

In just ten minutes, more than 2,000 people poured into the Fanxing Shopping Center, and there were even more customers waiting to enter the mall. This was only the first batch of customers. Even if only one-tenth of them spent money in the mall, it would be a considerable amount of cash flow.

Meng Jiang is a reporter. There are many celebrities who open hot pot restaurants and barbecue restaurants, but Nie Wei is probably the only one who opened a shopping mall, so he naturally couldn't miss the first day of the opening of this shopping mall.

From early in the morning, he felt that this trip was worthwhile.

From seven to eight o'clock, all the celebrities who are rarely seen on weekdays appeared on the red carpet of this shopping mall today. Meng Jiang and his colleagues almost exploded the memory card of the camera.

Then came Nie Wei's opening speech. As expected of a business darling, his words made Meng Jiang, a bystander, want to shop. Fortunately, he finally came to see the ribbon-cutting ceremony, mainly because he was really short of money.

Nie Wei spoke for more than ten minutes, and then there was the ribbon-cutting ceremony, which was completed by Nie Wei and Shu Chang.

This scene was also recorded excitedly by countless reporters. At such an important moment, Nie Wei not only brought Shu Chang with him, but also cut the ribbon with her. Even when receiving guests on the red carpet, Shu Chang stood with Nie Wei, looking like a master.

It seems that since the two of them were exposed to love, they did not "die in the light" as some media speculated, but seemed to have a deeper relationship. Judging from this, it is estimated that Shu Chang's title of "billionaire's wife" will be worn soon.

"What a lucky girl." Meng Jiang sighed while taking photos. In the eyes of an outsider like him, Shu Chang was definitely making a fortune by being with Nie Wei, a high-quality bachelor who was one of the best in the world.

You should know that before Nie Wei and Shu Chang made their relationship public, the people the media paired with Nie Wei were often the daughters of wealthy people worth tens of billions or even hundreds of billions. Even if they were artists in the circle, they had to be world-class stars.

However, Shu Chang herself was also very competitive. She won the Golden Horse Film Queen for two consecutive years. Her development prospects were indeed bright. I just don't know if she will continue to act after marrying Nie Wei. After all, those female stars who married into wealthy families basically all became women who stayed at home to take care of their husbands and children, and rarely showed up again.

Just as Meng Jiang was still thinking about it, the door of the shopping center was finally officially opened. Following the flow of people, Meng Jiang also walked towards the shopping center. He still didn't forget what the most important task was today.

When he took the first step into the shopping center, he was immediately attracted by the spacious and bright hall in front of him.

Although he had seen the scene of this hall in the promotional video more than once, only when he was in it could he feel the shock of being there.

The 360-degree transparent panoramic elevator in the center is also a highlight. When entering it, as the elevator continues to rise, the scenery of the entire shopping hall jumps into people's eyes.

The decoration and planning of the shopping center are needless to say. The decoration is full of a modern and simple style. Wherever you go, it will give people a spacious and bright feeling, making customers feel very comfortable unconsciously.

The planning of shops, aisles, rest areas, etc. is also very reasonable, at least Meng Jiang thinks so. Just like now, even if there are many customers around him, Meng Jiang does not feel crowded.

Soon Meng Jiang focused on the shops.

After all, this is the core competitiveness of a shopping center. As a result, Meng Jiang was really convinced all the way down. I don’t know where Nie Wei got so many connections to allow so many international brands to settle in his shopping center. Anyway, Meng Jiang feels that he can call all the good brand stores here.

However, although there are many brand stores, the quality of the things inside is also a key.

Some shopping malls have many brand stores, but the content inside is not necessarily the same. For example, the clothing cannot keep up with the latest styles, etc., which are all big problems.

However, after Meng Jiang visited six well-known brand stores, he was completely convinced. The clothing in the brand stores here is completely online, all of which are the latest and classic styles, and even some limited editions can be found here. Of course, the price seems to be more expensive than abroad.

But I think this slightly expensive price is not a big deal in front of those who can really afford these items.

After two hours of shopping, I hurriedly walked through the mall. At this moment, Meng Jiang had only one mood. This is really a paradise for shoppers, and it is also a paradise for the rich.

Looking at those rich men and women who recharged their membership cards for millions at one time, shopping under the attentive service of beautiful women and handsome men, Meng Jiang's eyes were red with jealousy. Although the various services of the shopping mall are already top-notch in his opinion, this kind of private customized service is still enviable.

Now he really admires Nie Wei. Not only is he thriving in the entertainment industry, but he is also so creative in running a shopping mall.

Looking at the crowds of people constantly entering the store to consume, Meng Jiang is looking forward to how much the turnover of this shopping mall will be today.

It must be very high, after all, there are so many people consuming, will the turnover exceed 100 million?

If Nie Wei knew Meng Jiang's thoughts, he would definitely smile and say to him, brother, you are still too young, keep guessing, guess big!

From opening at 8 am to closing at 22 pm, the daily turnover of the Stars Shopping Center today is as high as more than 386 million, of which more than 30 customers spend more than one million per day, and the number of customers who spend more than 100,000 is directly as high as thousands, and as for customers who spend thousands or tens of thousands, there are too many.

And this achievement also created a single-day business record for Huaxia Shopping Center. It can be said that Nie Wei's Stars Shopping Center has ushered in a perfect start!

"Send this turnover to the newspaper." After Nie Wei read the report, he directly instructed the manager beside him.

Since we have achieved such an excellent result, there is no need to hide our shortcomings. We will leave it to the media. I believe the media will know how to report this achievement, which will also add fuel to the week-long opening ceremony of the Star Shopping Center.
