The story of women and salons can be traced back to the medieval chivalric culture. In the 17th and 18th centuries, salon culture reached its peak in Western Europe and became popular.
In Western Europe, every salon gathering is centered on female hosts. The cultural women of France turned the living room into a social place, where dramatists, poets, musicians, painters, critics, and philosophers gathered to talk at length on topics of common interest, disseminating information in salons without restraint, drawing wise language from high-minded discourse, and gaining insight into the world.
Salon socialization promotes the dissemination and development of women's enlightenment ideas, between public space and private space, public and private spheres, salon in a pioneering way to open up women's space, for women to participate in and promote women's culture and women's rights to build a platform, to create a window for gender equality.
In the past, famous and influential salons were held for women, including the Saturday Salon by Gertrued Stein, the Friday Salon by writer Natelie Barney, the Fifth Avenue Salon in New York by mabel Dodge, and the Harlem Renaissance Salon by writer Jessie Fauset.
Salon culture promotes the prosperity of women's culture, and women also give salons unique meanings.
Because of the broadness and diversity of the characteristics of the most cutting-edge ideas and statements, Sharon successfully brought women out of the narrow family shackles, took the initiative to express their inner thoughts, and talked about the topics they wanted to talk about. The salon has led to the flow of ideas, cultures, industries and information, and has become a unique cultural landscape of feminism.
On January 22, the first glory night of 2022, organized by TOPHER in conjunction with HONOR glory and Di Xintong, came to a perfect end, which invited many well-known entrepreneurs, artists, sports stars and media people from all over the world to gather together.
At the same time, the tasters of CITIC Guoan Wine Industry led everyone to feel many delicious wines, and there was light in their hearts and doubled in deliciousness. In a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, the crowd chatted about the darkest moments experienced in the past and the glorious moments ushered in in life
01. Xiong Shengxi, head of the brand department of Glory Beijing: the new rise after independence
As we all know, Honor has previously stood out from Huawei independently. Why? Due to the US suppression of Huawei, chip manufacturing has been hindered by many obstacles. Based on this situation, how Huawei's mobile phone business survives is crucial. Therefore, Honor's independence from Huawei in 2021 is a new tentative measure, and it has been exactly a full year since then.
When it comes to the darkest hour encountered, the period before the release of the Honor 50 phone is a darkest moment for the entire Honor company, or for me, why? Because this period of time has been very painful, we do not have products for consumers.
At that time, many R & D personnel were working overtime to produce products, in order to make glory live, in order to let Huawei's blood survive, so it was particularly difficult before this.
Sales were as low as 4 percent at that time, but when the Honor 50 came to market, everyone had a feeling of winning the battle, and the sales curve suddenly rose, and the CEO said it was a smile curve.
In 2021, there have been darkest moments, and there have been some more happy moments, and no matter what, everyone should smile and face it.
02. Ma Qian, vice president of marketing of Beijing Dixintong: a new trend in the mobile phone industry
Many people do not know much about Di Xintong, but in fact, since its origin in 1993 and its establishment in 2001, after more than 20 years of entrepreneurship and development, Di Xintong has become a mobile communication chain enterprise with wide coverage of stores and high market share in China.
At the same time, Di Xintong integrates high-tech technology innovation research and development, advanced production equipment, intelligent hardware experience, and o2o model sales and service.
Deep ploughing industry for many years, smart phones have undergone many changes in the past year, due to the impact of the chip blocked and the epidemic, the entire industry is facing a dark moment, especially the price segment of more than 3,000 yuan mobile phones are very missing, suddenly there is a cliff state, resulting in a comprehensive decline in the industry's unit price.
Talking about the changes in the aesthetic trend of the mobile phone industry, many people have chosen Apple in the past two years, because there are not many mobile phones above the 5,000 price range that can match it. Until the advent of the Honor 50, the people-friendly price made the market sales increase significantly. Then later the glory magic came out, these two machines brought a shot in the arm to the entire mobile phone industry.
At the end of 2021, the emergence of folding screens has pushed the mobile phone industry to the cusp of the storm again. All brands of various manufacturers are out of the folding screen, including Huawei, Honor, OPPO and so on. Now most people change their mobile phones more to consider changing the folding screen, from such an aesthetic trend, the mobile phone industry may usher in a new moment of glory.
03, Beijing 1/4 One Quarter Coffee Lab founder Zhang Yan: coffee lovers of a variety of dreams of life
If you can't catch your dream, change your dream, don't be more true, this is my most reasonable quote. In fact, my life does not have too many obsessions, it is easier to be flexible, because people certainly have more than one dream.
I have been in the construction machinery, Internet, finance and big data industries for many years, and I am also a foodie. Because of his love of specialty coffee, he opened the first store of 1/4 One Quarter Coffee Lab in Beijing in May 2019. During the epidemic period in July 2020, the second store was opened, Chaoyang Joy City.
The glorious moment of 2021 is that 1/4 of the One Quarter Coffee Lab participated in the 6th Lujiazui Financial City International Coffee Culture Festival in Shanghai. At that time, many coffee lovers lined up to taste, as a foreign brand, in a place where cafes gather in Shanghai, it was more honorable to have consumers who loved us so much and were willing to queue under the sun.
As for the darkest hour, 2021 has not happened, and I am probably more optimistic. But at the beginning of the epidemic in 2020, I experienced it when I was juggling my job and my café business.
My healing method is to watch more psychology lectures, the most important thing is that when you find that you are depressed and have some anxiety abnormalities, find a close friend to help you solve it in time. When your self-perception is not clear, friends can help you position and reshape your cognition, so that you can help get out of the darkest moments faster.
04, the famous badminton player Gong Weijie: the indissoluble relationship of badminton
Gong Weijie, a former member of the badminton national team and world champion, has been retired for many years, but the fate with badminton has been continuing. Today, he has multiple identities, both engaged in the badminton training industry and a well-known event commentator.
Gong Weijie said that today's sports training market has provided a lot of help for retired athletes' career transition. Up to now, Gong Weijie has trained nearly 10,000 people, of which children account for 70%. With the reform of the Beijing Secondary School Entrance Examination, badminton has become a new test-taking project, and his training career has ushered in a new peak of development, which may be another glorious moment in the past.
At the same time, he believes that contemporary teenagers urgently need physical exercise, because in a high-pressure environment, this group has no emotional outlet, the dark side is difficult to resolve, resulting in more mental illness, and exercise is a very good way to relieve stress.
In the upcoming Year of the Tiger, Gong Weijie said that he hopes that all his friends will be healthy, and he believes that there will always be light in his heart that will illuminate the darkest moments.
05, The Actor of the National Drama Theatre of China Juanzi: I would rather run into a wall than face a wall at home
Although the sun rises in the east and sets in the west every day, the feeling is different. As an actor, the same is true.
In fact, any profession is hard. Athletes exercise every day, accumulating day by day, 1 minute on stage and 10 years offstage, this persistence and tenacity are accumulated with sweat. Publishing houses do not do content without wholehearted creative investment and effort to create a good product...
In the process of growing up, everyone moves forward with a beautiful vision of life is a moment of glory. It's the same with being an actor, and with this belief, what I create and feel differently in my daily repetitive work is different. Therefore, I think it is better to hit a wall than to face a wall at home.
In 2021, for more people, the first thing is to live in health and safety. Last year, my darkest hour was experienced with my son, and on his birthday, Beijing was stormy and full of water, and the car suddenly stopped and was basically scrapped.
At that time, I was very nervous, because it was shortly after the heavy rain in Henan, and I was still carrying a small child, which was very panicked. At that time, I felt that life was actually quite small in front of nature, no matter how hard I tried in normal times, but in the face of danger, I would feel that peace was a blessing.
06. Liu Hong, founder of the DAICO BAKERY brand: from the cross-border baking business that he loves
From the perspective of national policies and banks, the overall industry environment is not suitable for individuals to invest in real estate. Although I have been doing some real estate project investments with related companies in the past, the impact in the past two years has been relatively strong.
I've been trying to do something I really love, invested in some consumer goods before, and then started my own business.
Why did you want to start a bakery brand? Affected by the epidemic, it is more difficult to go abroad in recent years, I am also a person who especially enjoys life and loves food, in order to taste delicious toast bread, in 2021, I invited Lin Yuwei, former executive chef of MaiShanqiu and champion of the Taiwan Baking Competition, to create a boutique baking chain brand Hakka DAICO BAKERY.
In fact, I don't know anything about consumer goods and catering, just simple love and liking. Fortunately, the products we make are loved by consumers, and this may be the glory of this year.
At first we were just doing it as a side hustle, but then we realized that consumer goods needed to be branded. This may not be the darkest moment, but should be the confused stage encountered in the entrepreneurial process. Therefore, a long time is spent on the process of polishing the brand, such as forming a research and development team, improving the supply chain, and so on. Today, DAICO BAKERY has become an important matter to do full-time.
07. Ayur, founder of YIN Hidden Jewelry: An innovator in China's jewelry industry with a triple identity
I think I have a triple identity at the moment, the first is an entrepreneur, the second is an innovator, and the third is a successor.
Founded in 2014, YIN Hidden Jewelry has evolved from an independent studio of two people to a large-scale company, and has completed several rounds of financing. Offline aspects have been laid out in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, and online channels such as Tmall have also been covered. This is the identity of an entrepreneur.
Why say you are an innovator in the ancient traditional jewelry industry? Because when everyone talks about jewelry, they either think of traditional Chinese gold jewelry, or foreign luxury brands, or some small Taobao brands and so on. It is difficult to think of a Chinese brand that can compete with luxury goods in terms of pattern, vision and style. I hope to walk with them through innovation strength, or even compete.
Secondly, I would prefer to have the identity of being the inheritor of humanistic cultural creativity. YIN Yin is actually a cultural and creative company, but the carrier of the product is gold and gemstones that can always accompany it, and we have introduced many oriental elements in terms of design inspiration. The wisdom behind it makes YIN hidden different from Western luxury goods, and also different from the sense of materialism advertised by traditional China with wealth value and heavy gold price, and we hope to carry the wisdom and civilization and beauty of human beings through timeless gold.
This year's glory moment is actually the team working together to polish many creative designs, including the minimalist and low-key style of Luban Golden Lock. In addition to innovative design, it also inherits traditional culture, which is also a gift that YIN Yin wants to bring to the world as a Chinese brand.
The darkest moments in the past have been the twists and turns encountered in the operation of the team, including the run-in with investors, there are some immature places, and there have been various difficult moments. The first half of 2021 is very nerve-wracking, but the second half of the year has been reborn, and I am very confident in the persistence of the brand and the future of entrepreneurship.
