Catherine Bell rubbed her slightly aching forehead. After the catwalk on the 11th, she did not relax, and she had no time to rest due to the constant door-to-door interviews. Now the name "Catherine Bell" is no longer a nobody, and major media magazines hope to interview this emerging designer as soon as possible. Not only the media, but also the major brands. Catherine Bell then attended the red carpets of Dior, Chanel and other brands, and was chased by flashes, which made Catherine Bell realize that she was also a public figure, and like her younger son, became the spotlight Lights focus.

The taste of being famous in one fell swoop did not make Catherine Bell feel complacent. The experience of the past 20 years has been enough for Catherine Bell to understand that no success will come to her door. Today's media pursuit is probably because of one of your failures. Tomorrow it will turn into a downfall. What's more, the experience of the younger son is the most vivid example. Katherine Bell's mentality has always been in a good state.

He picked up the coffee on the coffee table in front of him, took a sip, and the bitter fragrance spread out on the tip of the tongue, which lifted the decadent spirit a little. Eden Hudson sat on the sofa next to him and asked, "Need a break and let Teddy or Evan come over?"

Catherine Bell shook her head, "I can handle it. I have persevered through the hard days back then, but now it's just a small matter of chatting and socializing, it's nothing." Today Evan Bell went to meet his friend Leonardo- DiCaprio is here, Teddy Bell is at the trade show with James Frank. Only Eden Hudson stayed to help Catherine Bell with some legal matters.

The door of the guest room was knocked, and Eden Hudson glanced at Katherine Bell, got a nod in response, and then got up to open the door. A simple greeting and introduction came from the door, and then Eden Hudson walked in with a middle-aged man with a full beard.

The naturally curly blond hair hangs down on his head casually, and the golden brown stubble on his chin makes him look a little **** in the vicissitudes of life. With a white T-shirt as the base, it is matched with a big red Scottish plaid shirt and navy blue jeans. As well as bright brown military boots, and an army green long-strap one-shoulder travel backpack on the shoulders, it can be seen that this is a French with a very good taste in life.

"Roland Gasquet." Without waiting for Eden Hudson's introduction, the French man stretched out his left hand and gently hugged Catherine Bell, imprinting on this elegant woman's face Two close kisses, "I'm glad you took the time to see me, it's my honor."

"For a designer who has just appeared in the public eye, it is a huge pressure for a professional buyer from Galeries Lafayette to come to the door." Catherine Bell with a warm smile, like a proudly blooming violet, It made people's eyes shine, "For a while, I didn't know whether to be happy or worried."

Catherine Bell's words revealed simple information. On the one hand, Galeries Lafayette is happy because Galeries Lafayette is interested in the "Eleven" brand. Although Katherine Bell said so, the smile on her face did not change much, and her calmness could be seen.

Roland Gasquet is not the first buyer to find Catherine Bell. After all, he needs to feedback information to Galeries Lafayette and can only place an order after confirmation. Galeries Lafayette's attention to Paris Fashion Week will not be weakened by the dispatch of its professional buyers, so they also learned of Karin Lowfield's favor for Catherine Bell right away. However, endorsement by fashion magazines is one thing, and business is another. Galeries Lafayette does not have much suspense about the introduction of the "Eleven" brand, but details such as the size of the storefront, location, and contract period leased to Eleven Design must be discussed.

Roland Gasquet made an appointment for today's meeting early. He originally thought he would meet the Bell brothers. These two brothers are already well-known in the business circle, with accurate vision and smart minds. It has grown to this scale in just two years. Now, once the "Eleven" brand is launched, it is not impossible to make a profit of tens of millions of dollars a year if it is operated properly. Therefore, Roland Gasquet subconsciously thought that such a big business should be initiated by the Bell brothers, but Catherine Bell personally took the initiative.

However, unexpectedly, Catherine Bell seems to have maintained a sufficient situation for the favor of such a large group of Galeries Lafayette. She did not ask for rent, store location, etc. Instead, Catherine Bell hoped that the store The lease term is tentatively set at one year. You know, Galeries Lafayette originally offered a two-year contract. This made Roland Gasquet put away the cranky thoughts in his head, but whether the negotiators in front of him were the famous Bell brothers, or Catherine Bell, who appeared in the image of a designer, must not be underestimated.

In fact, this plan was decided after the two Bell brothers discussed with James Frank and Catherine Bell. Now the "Eleven" brand is a new brand that has not proven its sales ability. Even if everyone knows that the admiration of Karin Lofield, Karl Lagerfeld and others can bring sales, but before it is actually put on the shelves, everything It's all just guesswork. Therefore, the "Eleven" brand has no ability to negotiate in front of the giant Galeries Lafayette, and they have no way to wave a blank check to the lion of Galeries Lafayette.

Therefore, whether it is rent, store size, location, etc., including the commission of Galeries Lafayette, Eleven Design plans to give up, and they will not rashly challenge the authority of France's No. 1 department store as a white man. They are targeting contract time.

Galeries Lafayette believes that to measure the sales ability of a brand, at least four quarters of figures can be used as a benchmark, and eight quarters and two years can form a horizontal and vertical comparison, and it is more appropriate to revise the contract at that time. But Eleven Design believes that relying on Evan Bell's publicity ability and their trust in Catherine Bell's ability, four quarters a year are enough to prove that the "Eleven" brand is one of the behemoths of Galeries Lafayette. survivability in.

Catherine Bell has enough understanding of department store commissions and store operations. Strictly speaking, she is more suitable than the Bell brothers, and she is the real industry insider. Therefore, after knowing the bottom line, Katherine Bell is the most suitable negotiator.

And Eden Hudson is the lawyer of Eleven Studio. He must fight for interests at a critical moment, and he cannot let Eleven Studio be blindly exploited by Galeries Lafayette. If the conditions are too harsh, even if the "Eleven" brand does not enter Galeries Lafayette for the time being, it is not an unacceptable result.

Eleven Design is also a division of Eleven Studio. Just like the overall style of Eleven Studio, it will never be timid just because the other party is Galeries Lafayette, nor will it blindly compromise.

After half an hour of negotiation, Roland Gasquet breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Bell brothers were not in front of him, the combat effectiveness of the Eleventh design was not bad at all. The final agreement was signed temporarily for one year. Not only that, but under the condition that Galeries Lafayette did not take a cut, Catherine Bell won a very good store location for the "Eleven" brand.

Roland Gasquet looked at the strong woman in front of him. Before coming to visit, he had read the life of this woman, and suddenly he understood why such a delicate woman was able to overcome all difficulties and Raised by a pair of sons, and created what is now. Because he saw in Katherine Bell the self-confidence and calmness honed by the years, and countless strengths entangled in it, this is an admirable woman.

"Mrs. Bell, I hope that the sales of 'Eleven' in Galeries Lafayette will continue to grow." Roland Gasquet said politely, and the final agreement still requires Eleven Design to go to Galeries Lafayette to sign in person. Today, it was just reached. It's just an agreement. If the sales of "November" are good, then Galeries Lafayette's commission will naturally be high. Of course, they are very happy to see such a brand can create good sales results; and as a professional buyer, Roland Gasquet's career has Will add a brilliant stroke.

After leaving Roland Gasquet, Catherine Bell then welcomed Britain's Selfridges department store (dges), which positioned customers as thirteen to fifty-five - usually a department store The department store is the second largest department store in the UK, and they are very optimistic about the sales of the "Eleven" brand among young people Then, The Hudson's Bay Company (n's.bay) from Canada also visited Katherine Bell. This department store is Canada's largest and oldest department store retailer, known as "the world's first department store". For every Canadian dollar spent, 0.65 is spent on goods sold by the company. This is also the largest department store that the "Eleven" brand series has joined so far, and its influence is even more profound than that of Galeries Lafayette.

From the rising of the sun to the setting sun, Catherine Bell met the buyers representatives of various department stores in the hotel room, and many of them were leading department stores in various countries. This is obviously for the future of the "Eleven" brand. is very helpful.

Eden Hudson replaced Katherine Bell with a fourth cup of coffee. "There's one last, Saks Fifth Avenue."

Kathryn Bell laughed, "The most important department store in New York, this is our own territory, and I will watch this meeting today."
