Chapter 729 November

Whether it is collecting shoes or speculating on shoes, China started to do this slowly after 2015. Before that, most people who speculated on shoes were overseas. It was not until the launch of the 'Coconut Shoes' in 2015 that a pair of sneakers was sold at a price of over 10,000 yuan, which made many people see the 'business opportunity' in it. Various shoes imitating its appearance appeared on Taotao, and then China's OEM factories also joined the 'shoe speculation' movement.

Manufacturers with no shortage of technology and some unscrupulous villains hit it off and started a round of speculation on the collection value of 'sports shoes'. Then countless water armies came out and began to brag about how much they made from speculating on shoes. After a large number of young people who dreamed of investing in low-cost speculation on shoes joined, the market became active. In the end, the manufacturers counted their money while laughing at these young people who were really cute. The manufacturers found that speculating on shoes made more money than processing for the original factory.

So some so-called "experts" who couldn't stand it ended up pouring water on the concept of "shoe speculation". The dream of shoe speculation was shattered. Those young people who dreamed of getting rich finally realized that this is how the big brothers in society cut leeks? And those who speculated in shoes were young guys who had just graduated from school and worked for a few years. They had not experienced the dangers of society. They saved a few years to buy a bunch of shoes that could be found everywhere on Taotao, and they bought them at high prices. This batch of so-called "genuine sources" turned out to come from the same magical place~~!!

After listening to Zhang Pingan's straightforward talk about the issue of "collecting shoes", the people present were a little dumbfounded. The man from the United States smiled and said, "In fact, many years ago, shoe collectors in the United States discovered that there were sources of goods that suddenly appeared on the market, but it is certain that they are definitely not officially sold in the United States. But everyone did not reveal this fact in order not to affect the market value. Just as PD Zhang said, some consumables that come off the assembly line are of no value at all. The collections of truly wealthy people are basically "antiques", "calligraphy and paintings", "clocks", and "jewelry." "

Zhang Pingan smiled and said, "The rich in China like to collect antiques. Like to collect antiques, middle-class families like to buy gold. You also know that Chinese people are very keen on "gold jewelry". Nowadays, Chinese people will buy diamond wedding rings when they get married, but the jewelry that the mother-in-law gives to the daughter-in-law is definitely gold jewelry. And gold is the most hard currency in any era, whether it is peacetime or wartime. "

At this time, a foreigner asked Zhang Pingan: "PD Zhang, what major did you graduate from?"

"I majored in finance. However, my studies are not very good, so I never touch that thing." Zhang Pingan responded to his major with a smile, and then the follow-up people also arrived. Dinner officially started after they arrived.

Although this is a Chinese restaurant, the standard of the state banquet ordered by Zhang Pingan is to serve one person, cold dishes, hot dishes, hot dishes, snacks... It is not the traditional type of serving a dish and everyone sharing it together.

In fact, this is not bad, at least these foreigners are used to the separate dining system. When the Chinese Maotai was unscrewed and poured into the cup, the rich aroma drifted throughout the private room. The aroma of the famous wine was completely covered by the Maotai.

The aroma of the wine, combined with the delicious food, plus Zhang Ping'an's easy-going and talkativeness, made them feel the charm of Zhang Ping'an during this meal. Everyone present knew that Zhang Ping'an was very rich, and the degree of his wealth far exceeded the imagination of these artists, but Zhang Ping'an was very easy-going and good at chatting. Sitting with him for a meal did not make them feel nervous, but it was as easy as getting along with friends.

This also made the three hosts feel for the first time why Zhang Ping'an had so many good reviews in the circle. It turned out that it was not some good reviews that everyone deliberately spread to please him. It was really easy to get along with him, and he did not give them the slightest feeling of being domineering.

It was really like getting along with friends and chatting, and Zhang Ping'an had a wide range of knowledge, as if he could connect with any topic.

In the next few years, during the time when Internet knowledge exploded, the UP masters in China covered all the knowledge you wanted to know, so naturally Zhang Pingan gained a wider range of knowledge. Whether it was the sand sculpture's fantastic ideas or the anti-fraud and anti-scam in professional financial knowledge, the endless things in the world have the interpretation of professionals from all sides. All the information you want to know is in the sentence "Balala, cheers~"! !

......

After dinner, everyone went home from the hotel. Those who did not drive chose to take a taxi home, and those who drove waited for the arrival of the designated driver at the door of the hotel. The shooting of this variety show also came to an end in this dinner, and there were several more people outside who spread good reviews for Zhang Pingan. Whether it was the host or this group of friends from overseas, they all had a very good evaluation of Zhang Pingan, at least Zhang Pingan did not have the slightest bit of hostility.

After the filming was over, Zhang Ping'an's life returned to normal. Taeyeon was still busy with matters related to her first SOLO. Zhang Ping'an also attended the personal fan meeting (concert) she prepared as an audience member. He and the members of Girls' Generation sat in the audience and watched Taeyeon's performance. The venue for the fan meeting was not big, but after the fan meeting, Zhang Ping'an discussed her formal personal concert with Taeyeon.

Taeyeon said her solo songs were not enough to support a concert, so Zhang Pingan said, "I will prepare songs for you." Just like that, Zhang Pingan said directly to Taeyeon's agent, to free up Taeyeon's time after the New Year. Taeyeon looked at Zhang Pingan depressed when she heard this, but Zhang Pingan smiled and said to Taeyeon: "Don't promote this album, the New Year's album. Release a 'three-no single' as a gift to the audience."

Three-no, of course, is a very happy thing for fans, because they only need to pay 100 won to download the sound source, and the price of the album is about 15,000 or 16,000.

The company's fan meeting for Taeyeon is over, but the program's fan meeting for Taeyeon is being prepared again.

But on the last night of October, all reporters went to the door of a nightclub to wait for the arrival of S.M. artists. Today is the Halloween costume party held by Taeyeon's company, and all the participants are well-known artists.

S.M. did a good job. Their artists would never appear in Korean nightclubs on weekdays, so today the company specially booked a nightclub for the artists to play. The crazy play once a year, plus the cross-dressing, is really interesting for the artists. So reporters went to the door of the nightclub and waited for the artists to arrive after cross-dressing.

Although their company also sent an invitation letter to Zhang Pingan, Zhang Pingan did not go. Instead, he was alone with a backpack, wearing a round-neck jacket, and the hooded sweater that Li Zhien bought for him. Zhang Pingan has worn this clothes many times.

And today, the photo of him sitting alone in the VIP waiting hall was uploaded to the Internet. Netizens felt a little bleak when they saw him leaving alone.

Artists who have a good relationship with Zhang Pingan, as well as many platforms, are happily enjoying the atmosphere of Halloween.. Especially today, there are many Halloween activities in Itaewon at night, but even on such a happy day, the photo of him sitting alone at the airport and swiping his phone looks particularly lonely.

Zhang Pingan returned to China during the festival when everyone was having fun. The party held by S.M. Company was not only for the artists of their company, but also sent out some invitations, so this Halloween party was quite lively.

The music and alcohol in the nightclub made the artists return to the identity of ordinary people. They enjoyed the confusion brought by the strong music and alcohol. The gorgeous lights and colors shuttled in the store. The dance floor, which was very crowded on weekdays, became less crowded when it was reserved. Some people who like to dance, such as Hyoyeon, Kim Heechul, and Shindong, stood in the dance floor and swayed their bodies. There was no unified choreography for this dance, they just followed the rhythm of the music.

The laughter resounded throughout the nightclub, and everyone's face was full of joy. Tiffany, dressed as "Little Red Riding Hood", kept wandering among the crowd with a glass of wine and doing her own diplomacy. Taeyeon, who was wearing cat makeup, sat in the booth with a drink and listened to the live music leisurely with her teammates. Because she had just finished the performance and came to participate in this party, her makeup was painted in the car after the performance.

Lin Yoona sat next to Taeyeon and said with a smile: "Ouni, didn't Zhang Pingan come?"

Taeyeon nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, no, he went back to China."

Yoona pouted and said with some disappointment: "Hey~~ Why didn't he come? Really... I want to see what he is dressed up as, can't he be a prince charming?"

Taeyeon responded with a smile: "Haha, what kind of prince charming is he. It just so happens that everyone is gathered together today, so I also ask you, do you want to go out and play together in the New Year?"

Yuri looked at Taeyeon and said: "Zhang Pingan said it?"

Today, it just so happened that they all got together at the company party, so Taeyeon talked about this matter by the way, and everyone discussed it together.

Taeyeon said, "Well, we talked about going out for New Year's holiday some time ago. At that time, I was still working on my album and it was still a long way from the end of the year, so I didn't respond. Now we are busy entering November, and New Year is coming soon. Everyone is here today, so it's a good time to talk about it."

Yuri spread her hands and said, "I don't care. Let alone New Year's holiday, am I not on vacation now? Ask the others, Seohyun, are you going?"

"What, where?" Because the environment was too noisy, only the conversations in her ears could be heard, so Seohyun, who was sitting a little further away, didn't hear the conversation between the sisters.
