40-year-old Chen Guanxi (Edison) since the sensational "photo gate" storm in 2008, the acting career has completely fallen to the bottom, and announced that he voluntarily quit the Hong Kong entertainment industry, and moved to live on the other side of the Atlantic with his girlfriend Qin Shupei and his daughter Chen Raya (Alaia) to live away from the public. After retiring from the circle, Chen Guanxi did not lose his fighting spirit, but turned to the mall to try to be his own tide brand!
After joining hands with his old classmate and good brother Pan Shiheng (Kevin) to establish the trend brand CLOT (Condensation Group), Chen Guanxi personally arranged the design, sample selection, modeling, publicity and other work for himself, and strived to build brand awareness. With the joint efforts of the two, the brand has opened a number of branches around the world, including Hong Kong, Taipei, Los Angeles, Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu and other places, and even many big stars in the circle are wearing his brand, such as Xue Zhiqian, Zhou Bichang, Li Chen and other artists.
According to Chen Guanxi in an interview, in the past year (2020), despite the impact of force majeure factors, the business volume in North America still exceeded 10 million US dollars. In addition to the booming tide brand business, Chen Guanxi opened a branch in Los Angeles, the United States, quite optimistic about the local market prospects, and strive to achieve the goal of breaking 100 million sales in North America within three to five years.
On the afternoon of July 18, Chen Guanxi's brand official blog updated a dynamic, posting a set of "Los Angeles juice branch opening" scene map, and the three partners appeared in unison. Sharp-eyed netizens found that Pan Shiheng was not seen in the group photo, it seems that he just married the mixed-race young model Mai Shaoyu on September 18, 2020, because he failed to congratulate during the special period, he was busy making a big plan in Hong Kong!
On the opening day of the new store (18), I saw Boss Chen Guanxi wearing a gray-brown Tang suit lined with a white printed T-shirt, with army green slacks on the lower body, and festive canvas shoes on his feet, worthy of the trend master; gold watch leaning body, wearing a large gold chain, hip-hop fan full. What is quite eye-catching is that this Tang outfit on Chen Guanxi's body is from the CLOT Tang outfit he personally designed 4 years ago (2017).
Although Chen Guanxi lives abroad, he still has a "Chinese heart" in his heart, especially a special complex for Tang Costume. According to Chen Guanxi's previous introduction, the design concept of each of his fashion brands will more or less have the element of Tang costumes, such as dragon totem patterns, buckles, silk, full of strong Chinese style!
At the opening ceremony of the new store, Chen Guanxi also followed the customs and rituals of the traditional culture of Guangdong, and specially spent a lot of money to invite a professional dragon and lion dance team to perform, beating gongs and drums on the spot, and the liveliness was extraordinary. When the lion dance performance team presented blessing slogans such as "Dragon Horse Spirit, Prosperous Business, And Good Health", the boss Chen Guanxi squatted and painted cinnabar on the eyes of the "Lion", marking the lion dance with the meaning of prosperous business and rolling wealth!
In addition, Chen Jianfei, who wore a long pink dress, made a rare appearance to support his brother's clothing career. The sisters and brothers cut the ribbon together to invite the god of wealth, and also cut the roast pig together to imply that wealth is at the door, and the small details in a foreign country are quite exquisite. Chen Jianfei, whose real name is Chen Meihua, is Chen Guanxi's second sister, and there is a common vegetarian sister named Chen Lihua, who has a deep affection for her!
After graduating from a prestigious American school, Chen Jianfei returned to Hong Kong to join the development of the Hong Kong circle and released records and acted, but Xingtu Pingping retired from the circle around 2004. Chen Jianfei, who grew up abroad since childhood, can speak fluent English, and after her brother created his own fashion brand business, she took charge of the business in North America for Chen Guanxi, and the two brothers worked together to fight for the cause!
It is worth mentioning that Chen Jianfei has a black boyfriend who talks about marriage, and the two come together across skin color. However, at the opening site of Chen Guanxi's new store this time, I did not see the figure of Chen Jianfei's black boyfriend, but the latter had the relevant new store opening dynamics of praising his brother-in-law on the social network!
