Chapter 174 WPG0173: Attention and gifts, expensive prices and unpopular brands? 234K
The car that Yang Yuxin prepared for An Wuyang was a Maybach S580L that was only launched this month. This was obviously a new car prepared specifically for An Wuyang, which shows the importance that Ping An Xingtian Group attaches to An Wuyang.
An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing sat in the back seat together. Ma Qingjun asked, "Boss An, where are we going?"
An Wuyang thought about it and remembered a reward he had received before. He also had a travel fund of 520 million!
"Let's go to SKP." An Wuyang ordered.
"Got it." Ma Qingjun responded.
Xia Yuqing whispered, "Is SKP that famous shopping mall?"
SKP shopping mall is the number one shopping mall in the country in terms of annual marketing, and is indeed very famous.
Xia Yuqing has seen SKP shopping mall on Xiaohongshu. This is a shopping mall that little girls rave about.
But this mall seems to have a lot of luxury brands, right?
Xia Yuqing leaned close to An Wuyang's ear and whispered, "What are you going to buy?"
An Wuyang also imitated Xia Yuqing's way and leaned close to her ear to respond, "Guess?"
Xia Yuqing started to have some wild thoughts. She secretly wondered, if An Wuyang wanted to give her a gift, and if the gift was particularly expensive, how should she deal with it?
An Wuyang looked at the silent Xia Yuqing. He guessed that Xia Yuqing should have guessed that he was going to give her a gift?
More than half an hour later, Ma Qingjun drove to the underground garage of SKP shopping mall.
The reason why it took more than half an hour to drive was that the Aman Yihe Hotel was located in the northwest corner of the imperial capital, and the SKP shopping mall was in the southeast corner of the imperial capital, which was equivalent to driving around half of the imperial capital.
This is when there is not much traffic jam. If it is a little later and encounters the rush hour after get off work, it may take an hour and a half!
An Wuyang took Xia Yuqing's hand and took the elevator into the SKP shopping mall. Ma Qingjun did not follow them to be a light bulb. An Wuyang and Ma Qingjun had already exchanged contact information, so Ma Qingjun just needed to wait.
In the SKP mall, An Wuyang took Xia Yuqing for a walk first. He casually asked, "Is there anything you like?"
Xia Yuqing shook her head and said frankly, "I have never been exposed to these things before, and I don't know what I like."
"Then let's try them one by one." An Wuyang responded.
An Wuyang first took Xia Yuqing to Bulgari. Many people have a wrong understanding of Bulgari. Bulgari is indeed very weak in the fields of bags and watches.
For example, the value retention rate of snakehead bags is very low, almost only one-fourth to one-fifth, and the value retention rate of watches is also very poor.
But Bulgari’s main business is not bags and watches, but jewelry!
Bulgari is a jewelry brand, and a very strong one among high-end jewelry brands. Their brand representative image is the snake, not the so-called fan pendants and spring necklaces.
That is Bulgari’s entry-level product, which is equivalent to Bulgari making friends with the general consumers.
An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing walked into the Bulgari jewelry store hand in hand. A young and beautiful clerk in a small suit immediately came up to them and said, "Welcome to Bulgari."
This young and beautiful female clerk is quickly taking a look at An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing's clothes to determine whether they have purchasing power. This is the basic identification ability of high-end brand clerks.
Of course, such behavior is just identification. There are very few cases where people directly mock someone in the face. This is not some urban sketch.
After all, store clerks of high-end luxury brands all receive pre-job training.
Even if these store clerks think you have no purchasing power, they will not easily show a bad attitude.
The young and beautiful female clerk first assessed An Wuyang's situation. An Wuyang was not wearing a watch, and his clothes had no obvious logos. They did not look custom-made, but more like fast-moving consumer goods?
It’s a little hard to judge Xia Yuqing’s dress!
First of all, Xia Yuqing was wearing canvas shoes, which were a local brand. Secondly, the skirt Xia Yuqing was wearing was also very ordinary, but the cross-body bag Xia Yuqing was carrying was clearly an Hermès Kang Kang bag.
The young and beautiful female clerk took a closer look at the Hermès Conkang bag, but she couldn't tell its authenticity for a moment.
"What would you like to see?" the young and beautiful female clerk took the initiative to ask.
Xia Yuqing was a little reserved. This was her first time entering a high-end luxury brand store, and she was indeed a little nervous.
An Wuyang was very casual. He had followed Li Wenya to various high-end brand stores since he was a child. He was very familiar with these stores and knew the sales pitch of the store clerks.
For example, the clerk in front of them is apparently asking them what they want to see, but in fact he is asking about their target intentions.
Normally, most customers who enter high-end brand stores have a target intention and have basically decided in their minds what products they want to buy. Most people even know the products they want to buy clearly on the Internet before going to the store.
By asking about target intentions, we can make a preliminary judgment on whether there is a purchase intention.
An Wuyang answered casually, "Let's just take a look. What styles of snake bracelets do you have in stock?"
Although An Wuyang said he was just looking around, the young and pretty female clerk greeted him warmly, "This way, please. We still have a lot of spirit snake bracelets in stock."
The reason why the young and beautiful female clerk became enthusiastic was because An Wuyang's answer revealed his understanding of Bulgari. An Wuyang asked about the "spot status of the snake bracelet", which showed that An Wuyang had a certain understanding of Bulgari.
At least An Wuyang knew that some snake bracelets were out of stock and needed to be customized.
An Wuyang took Xia Yuqing's hand and followed the female clerk. The three of them came to a counter together. The female clerk politely helped An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing pull out the chair in front of the counter and invited them to sit down first while she went to get the bracelet.
In less than two minutes, the young and beautiful female clerk brought out a tray of bracelets, including cheap all-metal snake bracelets, expensive diamond-studded bracelets, and full-diamond versions.
"Please take a look at which one you like?" asked the pretty young female clerk. She did not specifically ask An Wuyang or Xia Yuqing, which was a smart move.
An Wuyang directly picked up the all-diamond version of the Bulgari snake bracelet. As for the all-metal version, he was too lazy to even look at it.
After all, the all-metal Bulgari snake bracelet is expensive and the craftsmanship is not worth it. It is purely a scam.
Another huge problem with the all-metal Bulgari snake bracelet is that there are too many imitations.
But the full diamond series of snake bracelets are different. It requires very high inlay technology and very high-precision workmanship. Although it is more expensive, it is at least more acceptable psychologically.
An Wuyang chose a platinum and diamond-encrusted snake bracelet, which was inspired by the snake god in ancient mythology, at least that’s what Bulgari advertised.
However, in fact, the manufacturing process of the snake bracelet is inspired by the rattlesnake, and the actual structure also imitates the rattlesnake.
An Wuyang picked up the platinum and diamond snake bracelet and handed it to Xia Yuqing, "Qingqing, take a look at this. Do you like it?"
(↑Bulgari platinum full diamond snake bracelet)
Xia Yuqing looked at the platinum and diamond snake bracelet that An Wuyang handed over. She liked it at first sight. What girl could resist such sparkling jewelry?
But Xia Yuqing guessed it should be very expensive?
Xia Yuqing had seen the brand Bulgari in Little Red Potato. She knew that Bulgari was very expensive. Any fan-shaped necklace would cost tens of thousands of yuan. She estimated that a bracelet inlaid with diamonds like this would cost at least one hundred thousand yuan!
"How much is it?" Xia Yuqing asked the price first.
The young and beautiful clerk smiled but did not answer Xia Yuqing's question because she had already distinguished the primary and secondary relationships.
An Wuyang smiled and replied, "The price is not important. What matters is whether you like it or not."
Xia Yuqing was secretly moved, and the young and beautiful female clerk also felt a little excited.
An Wuyang took Xia Yuqing's left hand and said to the female clerk, "Bring me a tape measure."
He was going to measure Xia Yuqing's wrist circumference.
The young and pretty female clerk immediately took out a small tape measure to measure the circumference of the wrist. After measurement, Xia Yuqing's wrist circumference was relatively small, about 15.7cm.
The saleswoman obviously saw the measurement result, and she took the initiative to say, "This full diamond snake bracelet is S/M size, suitable for customers with wrist circumference less than 16 cm. This lady's wrist circumference is very suitable."
Bulgari's women's bracelets are suitable for multiple wrist sizes, ranging from 12 cm to 21 cm. Xia Yuqing's wrist circumference is slightly small, but it is a moderate size for Xia.
An Wuyang took the initiative to put on the diamond snake bracelet for Xia Yuqing, "It looks pretty good!"
Xia Yuqing turned her wrist over to check. Her fair skin and the platinum material really complemented each other.
She agreed, "It's really nice. How much does it cost? Is it expensive compared to a night's hotel stay?"
The female clerk was slightly stunned. She secretly guessed what hotel the two were staying in?
An Wuyang smiled and replied, "It's definitely more expensive than hotel accommodation."
"Is it so expensive?" Xia Yuqing exclaimed.
An Wuyang looked at the young and pretty female clerk, "What's the price?"
"84.5." The young and beautiful female clerk responded. She ignored the unit of 'ten thousand', but she felt that An Wuyang should understand it. After all, An Wuyang showed that he understood Bulgari.
An Wuyang nodded slightly, "It's quite cheap, I thought it would cost over a hundred."
The young and pretty female clerk smiled but said nothing. After all, An Wuyang's words were too difficult to respond to.
An Wuyang took out his bank card and handed it over, "Swipe the card."
The young and pretty female clerk immediately showed a look of surprise and said, "Please wait, we will take care of it right away."
……
'Ding! '
'The system detects that the host's bank card balance is sufficient to cover the shopping expenses during this trip, so the system will first calculate the total travel expenses and finally summarize the cashback again.'
'Does the host accept this?'
……
An Wuyang accepted it and asked what the system would do if his bank card balance was insufficient.
The Happy Life System immediately gave feedback, indicating that if An Wuyang's bank card balance was insufficient, the system would first advance the transfer of 520 million travel funds. If An Wuyang did not spend all the corresponding travel funds, the amount would be transferred to charity later.
An Wuyang was checking the feedback from the Happy Life System. He couldn't help but secretly sigh inwardly, this Happy Life System is quite humane, huh?
When the pretty young female clerk went to process the payment, Xia Yuqing asked quietly, "Does this bracelet cost 84.5 yuan?"
An Wuyang answered affirmatively, "Yes!"
You can't fool Xia Yuqing by saying that this full-diamond snake bracelet is only 84.5 yuan, right?
Isn't that just lying with open eyes?
What’s more important is that Xia Yuqing won’t believe it either!
What kind of good person would believe such an outrageous thing?
"It's too expensive!" Xia Yuqing said with some distress, "Noodle shops are about the same price."
An Wuyang asked, "Do you like it?"
"I like it, but..." Xia Yuqing wanted to say something but was interrupted by An Wuyang.
"It's enough to like it. Don't think about anything else." An Wuyang replied.
"Qingqing, this is a gift I give you. It represents my feelings, do you understand?" An Wuyang added.
This time Xia Yuqing finally did not refuse. She responded with eyes full of love, "Thank you, classmate An."
"Call me Brother Wuyang!" An Wuyang teased in a low voice.
Xia Yuqing blushed slightly, but still said obediently, "Thank you, Brother Wuyang."
An Wuyang smiled.
While the two were whispering, the young and beautiful female clerk took out the mobile POS machine and asked An Wuyang to enter the password.
An Wuyang took the POS machine. The young and beautiful female clerk moved sideways to avoid suspicion, indicating that she would not snoop his password. An Wuyang quickly entered his password, and the mobile POS machine made a sound of printing a receipt, indicating that the transaction was completed.
The last trace of worry of the young and beautiful female clerk disappeared.
"Qingqing, do you think there is anything else you like?" An Wuyang asked.
Xia Yuqing quickly denied it, "That's enough, that's enough, this bracelet is so expensive, let's just buy one!"
"Okay, let's go check out other stores." An Wuyang said.
The travel fund is as much as 520 million!
We have only spent 84.5 yuan so far. How far have we come?
If you don’t spend all of the travel fund, and the Happy Life System says it won’t compensate you, then wouldn’t it be a waste?
The two walked out of the Bulgari store. An Wuyang was carrying a Bulgari handbag, which contained the packaging box of the platinum and diamond snake bracelet and related receipts.
These things need to be kept well as vouchers for after-sales service.
An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing walked out of Bulgari holding hands and went directly to Cartier across the street.
These two jewelry brands are located next to each other, and they really love and hate each other.
Both brands are very famous in the jewelry field. Unlike Bulgari, which uses the snake as its representative image, Cartier’s representative image is the cheetah.
But Xia Yuqing doesn’t like cheetahs!
So the two of them went in and shopped for a while, and then gave up on Cartier, even though Cartier's status in the jewelry field was slightly higher than Bulgari, but who made Xia Yuqing dislike it?
As for An San.
An Wuyang doesn't like jewelry!
You can't let a man wear jewelry, right?
Even though An Wuyang's IP is correct, he is not a member of the rainbow group.
The two continued to turn back to the other side, but not to Bulgari, but to Van Cleef & Arpels next to Bulgari.
It has four top brands in the field of high-end jewelry, including Van Cleef & Arpels, Cartier, Harry Winston, and Chaumet, which is not very famous in Xiaguo.
As for Bulgari, Tiffany and Graff, they all belong to the second tier.
The second tier also includes Buccellati, which has become increasingly popular in recent years. Its brand representative image is the four-leaf clover, just like the famous Van Cleef & Arpels, but there is a slight difference between the two four-leaf clovers.
In addition, there are two very niche brands in the second echelon, namely Boucheron and Damian.
Especially the brand Damian, which is so niche in Xiaguo that many people have never heard of it, but it is indeed a second-tier high-end luxury brand in the jewelry field, far surpassing Hermès, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.
After all, these brands have different main business areas!
