Chapter 122: Chapter 120: Why Are You, a Ride-Hailing Driver, ddling in Other People’s Business?
Yang Chen waved his hand to signal the store manager to co closer, then handed her the bag.
"Take a look at this bag. Is it a work by our Louis Vuitton designer? I’m not very familiar with our products, so please compare it carefully." Yang Chen said.
The store manager carefully observed for a while and said, "It looks a bit like our new Sumr Lotus series product. Mr. Yang, wait a mont, I’ll call soone to bring a real bag over for comparison. Wang Li, Wang Li, bring over a pink Sumr Lotus."
The Louis Vuitton store staff responded and quickly brought over a pink bag.
Comparing the two bags side-by-side made the differences and similarities apparent.
The differences are definitely in the material and craftsmanship, which are obviously different, as well as the logo.
The genuine Louis Vuitton is Louiways, while the one by the strear is Loulways, and they’ve deliberately made the "l" appear connected to the "i," making it difficult to spot the difference unless examined closely.
The similarity is that the appearance and interior of both bags are almost identical.
The strear’s live background is Louis Vuitton’s store, online buyers would surely be deceived and believe it’s a designer’s work from Louis Vuitton.
Anyone familiar with TikTok live streams knows there are too many streams bending the rules of selling goods on it.
Generally, no one cares unless the amount involved is too large, fattened up so they can be dealt with eventually.
The store manager quickly reported to Yang Chen, "Mr. Yang, her bag is clearly a knockoff of our Sumr Lotus series."
Yang Chen said, "This lady claims her bag is a work of a Louis Vuitton designer."
The store manager quickly asked, "Lady, you said this bag is a work by a Louis Vuitton designer? May I ask which designer’s work?"
The strear, sweating in her palms, nervously replied, "It’s the work of Hiltabells. We bought her design drafts, so that’s why it looks similar to Louis Vuitton’s Sumr Lotus series."
The store manager looked helpless; the headquarters’ designers are not accessible to a store manager like her.
The strear looked smug, thinking, "You can’t verify headquarters’ designers, right? Once today is over and I stop selling, you can’t do anything to ."
Having this thought only shows her immaturity.
Yang Chen, though not involved in the day-to-day managent of Louis Vuitton, is after all the second-largest shareholder. If soone infringes the brand’s rights, he’ll definitely need to intervene.
Damaging the brand image and affecting sales is equivalent to affecting Yang Chen’s dividends.
Yang Chen asked, "Do you know she’s live streaming to sell bags here?"
The store manager quickly replied, "I saw it, but I didn’t expect her to sell this kind of bag. Since it’s work hours, we didn’t co over to check."
Yang Chen nodded and said, "I’ll take your word for it. But I must say upfront that if it’s found later that anyone in the store colluded with her, no matter who it is, they will face legal consequences."
The store manager quickly replied, "Understood! Mr. Yang, rest assured, I can guarantee there is absolutely no relation to our store."
Yang Chen nodded, took out his phone, found the number of LVMH president’s secretary, and dialed it.
Soon, the secretary answered the phone.
Secretary: "Mr. Yang, hello, what can I do for you?"
Yang Chen: "Does Louis Vuitton have a designer nad Hiltabells?"
Secretary: "Yes, yes, she’s the chief designer at Louis Vuitton as well as the designer we’ve arranged for Mr. Yang’s clothing. Has Mr. Yang heard sothing about her?"
Yang Chen: "Here there’s a strear selling bags, and the bags she’s selling are almost identical to our Sumr new ’Sumr Lotus’ design. She claims she acquired the design draft from Hiltabells, thus the similarity. Can you ask Hiltabells if she has sold any design drafts?"
Secretary: "What? Is this happening? It’s against our rules for designers to collaborate with anyone outside the company in any form. Hiltabells, as Louis Vuitton’s chief designer, couldn’t possibly make such a basic mistake. I will confirm with her imdiately and have her send you a video explanation directly."
Yang Chen grunted and hung up the phone.
The strear, seeing the situation deteriorate, imdiately signaled assistants to take away the items.
Yang Chen sternly said, "If I’m not mistaken, these live streaming sales have backup recordings, right? Do you think simply taking things away now will resolve anything?"
The strear panicked, hurriedly asked, "What... what do you want? I’m just selling a bag, why are you doing this?"
Yang Chen angrily said, "If you’re selling bags, then sell them properly, why degrade n? Who said won must rely on n to live? Who said if a man doesn’t go beyond his ans to gift a woman, it ans he doesn’t love her? The severe gender opposition now is due to trash like you purposely inciting gender conflicts to make money. Love is mutual, fair, now distorted by people like you into one-sided bleeding from n. Sell bags properly, why maneuver this way? Our Louis Vuitton Sumr Lotus new model, you dare to sell it by slightly altering the letters, claiming it’s from the chief designer. I’ve already contacted the Hiltabells you ntioned, and she’ll send a video soon for us to confront directly."
The strear dared not speak anymore, and the rchants who’ve been hiding in the crowd seeing the unfavorable situation, imdiately turned around and fled, leaving both money and bags behind.
Those swayed by the strear’s persuasion and bought a bag out of face quickly stepped up to return the goods.
"You’re selling fake goods! I want a refund!"
" too! It’s infuriating. Just bought it out of face-saving from your ridiculous words, listening to this brother I suddenly realized. Damn it! Refund! Or I’ll call the police!"
"I want a refund too, if not, I’ll report to the police."
...
Usually selling fake goods online, bending the rules, it’s not a big deal, generally, nobody cares.
A heap of things like Romons on TikTok are label fake product streams, and unaccounted for.
But, doing it offline selling is different.
Offline selling fake products, it’s not just about a simple refund.
Yang Chen told those return seekers, "Brothers, you wait a little. Once confird, she sells fake goods, you can get a refund or three tis compensation, not just a refund."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Right, it’s a great chance to earn money.
Previously, eting those embarrassing n at the Apple store, made Yang Chen fu internally.
Now eting another eye-catching, deceitful selling fake goods strear, Yang Chen vented all frustrations on her.
Getting her unforgettable today is owed to her usual despicable acts degrading n.
"Brother, you’re right. Haha..."
"Still brother, you’re tougher and rational. Didn’t get fooled by her. Just pressured by her words to buy."
"Brother, what do you do? I see you’re definitely not a rideshare phone."
...
Yang Chen laughed and replied, "I’m indeed a rideshare driver."
The strear angrily asked, "You a rideshare driver, why ddle in so much. Are you showing off?"
The nearby Louis Vuitton store manager imdiately said, "He is also our Louis Vuitton Group’s second-largest shareholder. You plagiarized our Louis Vuitton product and deceived consurs with our brand, of course, he’ll intervene!"
The scene and the live stream room fell silent again...
