Speaking of Chanel, I believe that many audience friends have used or heard of it, but do you know that chanel has so many products from whom?
Yes, it is the so-called "Lafayette", Chanel-led designer and creative director of Carl Lagerfeld, this Derry mixed-race, knows the four Chinese, has been at the forefront of fashion for a long time, can be said to have designed countless exquisite and fashionable goods for consumers, and because of this, although he is more than eighty years old, he still has millions of iron fans, but unfortunately, on February 19, 2019, this fashion pioneer still left us.
When he learned of this news, the fashion circle can be described as an uproar, many top designers spontaneously attended his funeral, and countless fans expressed their condolences in various ways. However, while the world mourned, many people also cared about Carl's death.
Because the elder who holds a certain stake in the Chanel company has a very large inheritance in his hands, and he has no wife and no children, that is, no heirs, in this case, many people speculate that Karl will donate the inheritance to the Chanel company for which he has dedicated his life, or whether it will be donated to charity, but just when everyone is talking about it, an extremely shocking news has come out through the housekeeper of "Lafayette".
It turned out that according to Karl's housekeeper, Karl had left a will before his death, and according to the will, the property under his name of about 2.1 billion yuan after his death would be inherited by his beloved cat Cupid! A cat inherits 2.1 billion yuan, which is simply unheard of, so why would Karl do this, and what is the charm of this cat named Cupid?
First of all, let's talk about the origin of this cat, its first owner is actually not Carl, but an internationally renowned male model Baptiste Jabicone who has had a scandal with Carl, the two of them originally had a good relationship, in addition to fashion, design work problems, privately also often "tired together", which also led to the rumor that Carl will marry him at that time, and this cat is this Jabikoni's love cat.

At that time, when Carl and Jabicone were like glue, Jabiconey often had to go abroad to take pictures, so he put the kitten in Carl's home, Carl was a cat slave, in the long life with Cupid, naturally fell deeply in love with it, and even later, when his relationship with Jabicone broke down, the original owner wanted to return carl refused, of course, since then Cupid also completely belonged to Carl.
After this, Cupid's life has undergone earth-shaking changes, because his snow-white long hair is very much in line with the aesthetics of the Western fashion industry, so in order to take it with him, Carl thought of a way to let him also enter the "fashion world". Not to mention the "guarantee" of Karl, an authoritative figure.
Cupid not only successfully debuted, but also received several hundred thousand dollars worth of advertising, and even according to statistics, its income that year has been higher than more than 90% of the world's people, because of this, its fame has instantly surpassed most of the models, after having more than 100,000 fans, it has directly become a "hot candidate" for many clothing and cosmetics industry to shoot advertisements.
But do you think That Karl, the top man in the fashion industry, will only let others share his love cat? The answer, of course, is no. First of all, in 2014, he had already teamed up with Cupid to create a Christmas series based on it, called "Cat Whisper".
As soon as this makeup was launched, it caused a sensation, and the major fashion celebrities could be described as crazy to buy, and even allegedly sold out less than four hours after the makeup was put on the shelves; secondly, Carl did not design luxury goods inspired by Cupid, including the famous jelly shoes inspired by Cupbit's claws, as well as the color matching of Several series of Cosmetics of Chanel Company inspired by Cupid's eyes and hair, etc., which are the crystallization of the love of one person and one cat.
With the blessing of these series of products, Cupid's "coffee position" has risen several grades at once, and the "coffee seat" has come up, Cupid's treatment and living standards are naturally rising, and its entourage has a personal bodyguard, a private doctor and two assistants on weekdays, and the cat nests, cat mats, cat sticks, and cat litter boxes it uses are also luxury goods such as Couch and LV.
When Karl is around, he often takes a private jet with his owner, and when Carl is not around, he also owns a private car, and most shockingly, a cat has an exclusive iPad!
Such a treatment is not to say that it is a cat, I believe that many people dare not think about it in this life, but Karl has never ignored the gossip of the outside world, still deeply loved it, he once said more than once, "I did not expect that I would fall in love with a cat, but unfortunately I have not yet been able to allow the marriage of animals and people." ”
But even if you can't "get married", in order to commemorate and its feelings in his lifetime, Carl still put a lot of effort, he personally launched a photo album called "Cupid: The Private Life of the Pet Cat in Fashion Status", and it is worth mentioning that almost all the photos in this photo album were taken by Carl, who was over eighty years old, and Carl's body was already relatively weak at that time, even so, he still insisted on shooting for the cat, and he could indeed see the truth of his feelings for Cupid.
Of course, it is precisely because of this that in the early years, Karl's old man was still relatively healthy, and when the reporter asked him about his future funeral, he would say the words that are still very shocking: "I do not intend to be buried, so that my soul will gradually rot in the soil, I hope to be cremated, and if the ashes are ashes, part of it will be sprinkled in the motherland with my beloved mother, and the other part will be buried with Cupid in the future." ”
A man who regards his mother as important as a cat, and even if he wants to bury his ashes with a cat, is indeed romantic, and this is why the world speculated before his death that he would let Cupid inherit all the property, but seeing here, I believe that there will be some audience friends who understand French law will ask questions, that is, French law does not stipulate, in order to prevent people from being too "emotionally romantic", animals can not become legal heirs? If you insist on passing on the property to Cupid, will it not be considered illegal and thus taken over by the government?
If someone really thinks so, it is a bit one-sided, because as the saying goes, people move dead trees to live, the rule is that dead people are alive, Karl is so smart, as long as he wants, he can find a person who talks, give him the property and Cupid for safekeeping, let this person guarantee Cupid's rich life, of course, Karl did this.
Before Carl's death, he found a butler who had followed him for many years, because this butler was also a cat lover, and his love for Cupid could be said to be no less than Carl's, so he agreed to Carl's advice without saying a word. In order to be able to better take care of Cupid after Carl's death, he has been training himself ever since.
For example, photography techniques, observation methods, clothing and matching he began to learn, especially in terms of observation, he was able to do it later, staring at Cupid motionlessly for five or six hours in a row to prevent it from having any problems, then the question came, now that Karl has died, has the housekeeper dutifully taken care of Cupid, and how is Cupid living now?
This can be assured, because to this day, the housekeeper is strictly in accordance with the standards of Carl's life to Treat Cupid, the original personal doctor, bodyguard, assistant are around, and even for a series of considerations, he also invited a full-time cat cat nutritionist for Cupid to serve as a chef, the chef will be according to temperature, humidity and Cupid's physical condition every day, the appropriate proportion of food, will often make some famous dishes for Cupid from around the world, serving a set of sterling silver tableware for him to taste.
In addition to eating, Cupid's daily routine is basically to lie on Carl's bed with big-name luxuries, watch dramas on iPad when bored, and occasionally when there is any event that requires it to attend, it will lazily board its private car or private plane under the support of the maid, go to various countries to shoot advertisements or receive the attention of fans.
But do you think that such a luxurious life will make Cupid carefree? The answer is no, because although Cupid's life has surpassed that of most cats, and even the vast majority of people, the owner who loves it the most, holds it every day, and caresses it gently is no longer there.
When he was idle, Cupid would often lie in the place where Carl had been, smelling the smell of his master, and would sleep peacefully on the pillow that Carl had once had, perhaps at this time she was also missing the bits and pieces of time with Carl.
