Chapter 382 The First Container
But that's J's own troubles. Song Ya's current life is very regular and fulfilling. He spends most of his time on the campus of the University of Chicago during the day, attending classes, playing squash, studying and discussing in groups, eating something with the students in the group and then staying. Finish homework in the library, occasionally take things home to do, occasionally play basketball with Michelle's husband, and occasionally visit Xue Linfen to chat with her about literary topics such as poetry.
At the beginning of 1993, the time passed quickly, and the calendar quickly turned to the beginning of the second word. Whitney Houston's i will always love you still firmly occupies the top of the b list. I heard that not only is it possible to break boyz ii n's end of the road Just set a record of 13 consecutive weeks, and the single may have sold over 10 million copies.
Song Ya's own where is the love is also selling well, but it pales in comparison with this song. More and more works that imitate his 'Chicago rap' style appear on the market, and the quality is getting better and better. high.
My 'innovative' point for the next album...
He began to think about the second album that was originally planned to be released in two years. If he wants to become a superstar, each album must lead a new music style. He put together and summarized the few apocalyptic songs he had already obtained. There are probably a few points.
Whatever you like, young dub, earned it's lazy and soothing singing style and overall tonality, as well as earned it and i gotta feelg, no ake-up such as you you you, day day day and good good The meaningless repetition of musical instruments is replaced by human voices. In addition, the performance of the song i knew you well is more characteristic and aggressive. In order to listen to the melody or lyrics, I can really feel a kind of emotion lingering in my ears, such as the deep depression in i knew you well.
"In short, I will still be the one who leads the trend in the next album."
He didn't panic at all. When he heard the news that the first container of a+ clothing had arrived in Hong Kong, he immediately rushed to San Francisco on the weekend.
"80,000 t-shirts, each with a CIF price of less than a knife."
Scout was very excited to take out some samples for Song Ya to check. A small part of the suits were copied by him from the clothes of the young people in the future in Apocalypse v, and most of them were a+ clothing San Francisco designer studios. Free play on this basis Yes, in this era, it can be regarded as fashionable.
"The quality is also very good." Scout tugged on the neckline with both hands, and the change was not big. "It is better than those cheapest pure white T-shirts. There are also patterns and colors. Those cultural shirts in Wal-Mart can't beat it." us.
"
"Is there any problem with product safety? Are the channels ready?" Song Ya asked. Many men in the black slums are still wearing the pure white T-shirts that Scout said, with round necks. There are no designs and colors. The quality is not good enough. The advantage is that it is cheap, and many black families will take advantage of the discount to stock up by the dozen.
"It's all right, 80,000 pieces can be easily digested by the west coast. This is a test of the water."
Scott replied: "In addition to those stores in the Chinese, Silla, and black districts, I also found some connections with Sears Department Store, and put the clothes in their low-end community stores for sale. The price is 499 dollars. Discount. Now in February, we will first distribute the goods in Los Angeles and other places in the south.”
"Will five knives be a bit expensive?" Song Ya asked worriedly.
"Five dollars is still expensive!? This kind of quality and fashion sense, plus you and Mariah Carey help to bring the goods." Scout said with a smile: "I was going to sell it for twenty dollars, otherwise it would match Not your status. Besides, we have to leave enough profit for all levels of distribution and retailers."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Song Ya entrusted the matter to professionals, "So how much do I have to invest in the next marketing?"
Scout and Song Asheng glanced at each other, "No boss." Song Asheng said: "The money in the a+ clothing account is still enough. Our products are good, and we can pass on the marketing costs to lower-level sellers, as long as you and Miss Kelly usually Wearing our t-shirts to show up in front of the media, and then buy some media soft articles, is better than any advertising method."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Song Ya took off his shirt on the spot, "Taraji, come and change it for me."
Taraji picked out the size he was wearing, and changed into the t-shirt with the number 17 worn by the young dub original v-liner brush head singer, "Well, not bad, very energetic." The little assistant began to compliment.
"Where's the media? Where's the media?" Song Ya asked the media again and again.
The media had come early, "aps, is this your own clothing brand?" Song Ya was led outside by Scott, and everyone began to trust her faithfully.
"Yes, I designed the pattern myself, and Miss Mariah Carey also helped design a part." Song Ya responded with a smile.
"Wow, Miss Kelly and why do you want to start your own clothing line?"
Song Ya's expression became a little serious, "We want to express our fashion philosophy, which only belongs to what we really like, young people's, not...you know, those high-end brands looking for endorsers."
"But as far as I know, your products are only T-shirts?"
"This is the first batch of products. We want to try it commercially first. In fact, we have also designed some coats, baseball shirts, women's clothing, etc., a lot, but we want to take a more practical step in the first step." Song Ya replied .
"This one on you?"
"Yes, I have this kind of thing."
"Looks like cheap stuff."
"Indeed, we sell very cheaply. You know, I was born in the south side of Chicago, and most of the clothes I wore were donated by people since I was a child. Miss Kelly's family is better than mine, just a little bit. So..." He continued With a saintly face, "I want to bring affordable, high-quality, but design clothes to the poor community youth, so they won't be sold very expensive. The one I have is only five dollars , all five knives..."
"Five knives?"
"It's actually $499."
"Wow..." The reporters all sighed, "Will you make more expensive trendy brands?" someone asked.
"Maybe, but there is no relevant plan for the time being. I have made a lot of money in the past two years, and so has Miss Kelly. We really want to do something for the slums, whatever we can..."
"So you don't make money?"
"Uh...ahem, basically there won't be much profit. She and I are people who really want to give back to the community. Here, I also want to announce that I will donate the relevant profits from my where is the love single and star joint singing Give to those in need, such as the families of the victims of the Los Angeles incident last year, as well as some poor residents in the community and related charities.”
This is what I promised to donate at the beginning of the announcement of the first album. Most of the money will go to the Aunt Susie Charity Organization, Michelle Equal Rights Organization, and Claire’s Charity and Feminist Organization. Anyway, the money is spent every year. Need to spend is also indispensable, just take this opportunity to gain more reputation.
And he was talking about profits, so the mystery of financial operations is even greater.
Anyway, he didn't really come to do charity anyway.
He waved goodbye happily amidst the admiration of the reporters.
a+ Apparel is starting to make money!
"aps, there's trouble." But before he could be proud, Taraji came to pour cold water on him with a phone.
"What?" He answered the phone.
"Someone in New York held a fluorescent party at home, and then developed symptoms of poisoning. He has been sent to the hospital and has been reported by reporters, but the specific situation is still unclear." Hamlin said: "I will rush to New York immediately."
