Fashion buyer is a kind of fascinating occupation to the forefront of fashion, originated in the 60’s of the last century in Europe. However, it still be a new job in China. What buyers usually keep in mind? They always concern about the newest popular information, grasp the epidemic trend, the pursuit of perfect fashion and hold amount of orders— they generally pick up clothing, shoes, jewelry and other basic goods for the company they work for from suppliers to meet the different needs of varies of people, so-called consumers. They must stand in the forefront of the fashion, to understand the industry norms, timely earn a profit in it.

There is no easy task in the world. Let alone it’s so fascinating. As a good fashion buyer, you should have such feature. Paying attention to fashion information most of your time, having a keen sense of “smell” the trend and design talent. What’s more you need certain professional quality, can quickly and accurately mining hot; be able to work under high, frequent travel the world, pick the goods; be good at business negotiation and interpersonal communication.

Wow! Are you kidding me? What a long list you show! I know you gonna say that to me. But if you are really into fashion, you just imagine it for a moment first. Is there will be a occupation fascinating more than this? In my mind, I guess not.

She once said, “Selling clothes is also selling the feeling, we must understand the life and habits of the consumer, if she is smiling and her eyes twinkled with happiness, so now she is willing to try. This is why every time I see some anxiety woman entered, we will chat with her first, excepted her happiness tuning out”. That’s it! Taking an fascinating occupation is necessary to make others feel the same too.

Jiuxiao who is at last the first one as a fashion buyer in China, is out of crazy when she knew that there is a job related to shopping. However, there is no any course about the major in China at that time. In her eyes, it was a chance to go abroad to learn. Now she is an excellent buyer with passion for fashion and culture and has the sensibility to grasp the fashion trend accurately.

Good news is coming. I intend to introduce a institute—HongKong Institute of Fashion Buying,which is established in Hongkong, a culture of fashion creation institution, its subject mainly relates to fashion buyer, display design, fashion MBA and fashion design and other international fashion highly recognized post-graduate courses and research courses. Have received a cutting-edge art edification and practice and new fashion buyers from here to the society every year, becoming the new fashion.

K-pop notes bouncing in the whole world

When we are only crazy about the western pop music, a K-pop tornado swept across the world rapidly. K-pop, with its unique development model and catchy songs, be a big hit in the western music market.

Xue Han 120307237 Class 4

For the longest time, the people around the world are crazy about such as Michael Jackson, Akon, Madonna Ciccone. But one day, an Asian guy broke into our eyes, with his music video for “Gangnam Style” obtained over 1 billion views on YouTube, and becoming the first video to do so in the website’s history, many people especially the western people unimagined. Why so popular and successful? Maybe it is the biggest puzzle in their heart. Okay, I try to solve the problem, so refer to a lot of data. My answer is:“ The great success of k-pop due to the wise operation pattern. Their characteristics are totally different from the western’s, because of this, they get a new way in the music road.”

There are three biggest agencies in South Korea: S.M. Entertainment, YG Entertainment and JYP Entertainment, often referred to as the “Big Three.” Like S.M. Entertainment, their artists started the Hallyu wave in K-pop and managed to break into Japan. The common point of the three agency is all of them has an integrated Trainee System. Such as S.M. Entertainment have created a process to train singers and dancers in its groups. The journey to stars often starts around age 9 or 10, when tightly supervised trainees begin dance and voice classes at night and live together while attending school. Besides singing and dancing, trainees are also taught foreign languages, especially English, Japanese and Chinese. According to the CEO of Universal Music’s Southeast Asian branch, the Korean idol trainee system is unique in the world.

In addition to this, the selection of the trainees is very special. They are not only limited to their own country, but face to the whole world. Certainly, almost all of them are Ethnic Asians. So, “The concept of global entertainment” come out. The concept of global entertainment aim to provide sensations rather than only music. For the Korean cultural industry, trainee system is an important part of the global entertainment, it was called the cultural technology by the founder of SM Entertainment.

Except the Trainee System, there are many other parts of k-pop’s operation are also worth studying. Korean regard k-pop as an industry, they have a particular marketing. For instance, the promotional activities of a K-pop artist involve the so-called “comeback”, In order to make their new albums known to the public, K-pop artists participate in various promotional activities, such as appearing and performing on national television.

K-pop is more than music or pop culture, it is also a new type of business model. Besides what I mentioned above, there are many other sides like the Fan Base, the use of social media, the Fashion in South Korea and so on. The popularity of k-pop also makes tourism work in a global scale. Fans from all over the world are coming to South Korea for tours and this has contributed positively to the total sales and market value of K-pop.

The Charm of Ballet


Ballet art was originated in Italy, and was born in late 17th century in French court. In the 18th century, it was completed in France. And by the end of the 19th century, it entered its’ golden times in Russia.

By Shuo Sun 131004117 Class1

King Louis XIV love ballet. In 1661, he founded the Royal Academy of Dance – the first college of ballet in the ballet history. He started to organize the research of the dance training systematically. And some standards of ballet dancing were established at that time and are still used today.

When it comes to Russia, people will always think of <War and Peace>, <Anna Karenina>, and think of Tchaikovsky and his artworks like <Swan Lake>, <Moscow Nights> and so on. After being familiar with this piece of land, you will be able to find out why there are so many great works grew from this land, as Russian is such a nation that has a special artistic talent, and has the ability to appreciate the art works.

In many Russian’s eyes, watching ballet performance is a divine thing that should be given enough respect. Women tend to prepare the clothes and haircut many days before the performance. Men also need to wear a suit and a tie, if they were lucky enough to watch a famous show. If a woman has watched a very good show, that show may become a topic she would frequently mention about during the rest of her life.

19300463284490133726516631517_950We are usually influenced by the quiet and solemn atmosphere in the theater, and that atmosphere always makes us feel like we are waiting for a coming moment of an important historical affair. Quietly looking forward to the start of the performance, we see the stage curtain is opened, accompanied by the applause from the audience. During the performance, the ballet is exquisite and beautiful while the applause is warm and full of respect.

Skilled actors used their beautiful body language to tell us the story we already know. Our heart across the national border, and enjoy such a marvelous art purely.

The continuous applause after the performance is out of expects. The leading dancers, supporting dancers, staffs and music players come to the stage together for the curtain call. After the entire performance, the applause still last, thus all the crew had to come to stage again and response to the curtain call in various ways. This long curtain call is just like another performance.

That may let us sigh: “What a great art!”




Water sprite? Water sprite!


TianchiAs a tourist attraction, the Changbai Tianchi never lack of tourists, but because the legends about the water sprite, Tianchi is always covered with a layer of mystery.

By : Wankun Liu  130306118  Class 1
In 2002, in the slope, north of Changbai Mountian, two local people found “monsters”. In 2005, water sprite appeared again. The witnesses said it was like a whale or a submarine. In 2006, the “Monster” swam in the North Korean side of the water. It was channeling up and down, just like a water seal. From the telescope, it looked black and not very big. Somebody said it like a dinosaur, somebody considered it as a big iron, others thought it was a Buffalo. It disappeared in the water for ten minutes. At that time, more than one hundred visitors saw it. In 2013, hundreds of visitors saw two monsters playing and swimming in the Tianchi’s lake.

Somebody thought the so-called monster is only an illusion, others thought that this is a way to attract the local tourists. Is water sprite really in Tianchi’s lake? Let’s take a closer take about Changbai Tianchi.

Famous Tianchi is located in the Changbai mountain peak volcanic vertebral at the top of the body and it is China’s largest crater lake. Tianchi is surrounded by many peculiar-looking peaks. Every year, there will be a spectacle that the fire could run out of the water. It’s amazing! For the material in the lake is in contact with water, and it will produce flames. Not all tourists can see the spectacular sight of Tianchi, Tianchi’s climate varies from minute to minute. Sometimes within one day, or even an hour, weather may change several times. Just or sun point-blank, anxious to bake, suddenly the wind come up and the rain fall down. Mountain and lake drowned in the wind and rain.Water sprite

Because there have been sightings of the water sprite, the scientists set up “Tianchi monster observation station” near the lake. Researchers carried out a long-term observation, and shoot from the valuable data, confirmed that unknown creatures in the water. But what is the specific biological, they don’t know. They got the Tianchi water for many times tests proved Tianchi water without any creature. Since there is no biological, if there is a monster, what it eat? This series of questions that make the Tianchi more mysterious and beautiful, attract more and more people to watch.

Of course, there is a beautiful legend about Tianchi. It is said that a fire breathing devil in Changbai Mountain, the whole mountain vegetation withered, all flames blot out the sun, people’s life were very hard. A girl named azalea, in order to overcome the devil, holding ice drill into its belly, to extinguish the fire. The fire was put out, then the peak into lake.
Is there a monster in the Tianchi? Up to now it is a mystery. But still many things for us to admire like white clouds, blue sky, clear water and the magic of nature.

marvel Good news for all the super hero fans! Still worrying you can’t find your unique “spider” or that “stars and stripe” uniform? No need to bother, here, we present you 5 little tips, and teach you how to be a super hero.

By: Yolanda Liu 110111112 Class 1

I bet you have all watched some super hero movies, and felt the adrenalin pumping so badly that all you want to do is to go outside find yourself a spider or sneak into some secret research centre and get some X-rays. Then chill out, found that it is quite impossible. Don’t worry, now, 5 “useful” little tips will tell you, how being a super hero is that easy.

First, super-power, the most important aspect of being a super hero. They have super power to save people from danger, so, without that opportunity to be bitten by a mutant spider, what can you do? Well, it could be very easy. Go to a hospital and get yourself a doctor friend, beg him to take you to the pharmacy store and wander around, pretend you don’t care and pick up some drug with complicated instructions that you can’t understand a single word, watch how your friend respond, nervous? Great! Drink it with no hesitation! Can you feel the pain? That the feeling of super power. Still can’t spin? Don’t worry, you will discover your power at some point as you probably don’t know what it is yet.

Secondly, name and uniform. Oh, that’s the hard part, just take your time and find your name, as for a uniform, online shopping? Come on! You are a super hero, not some creepy transvestite! It’s a way you can show off without using your super power! The key is special. Remember the “stars and stripes” uniform that Captain American wore? So shiny, even at night, still no enemy can find him, which is the power of uniform. So, the one and only uniform for you, I’m thinking, DIY, secret and special, what do you think?

Third, use your instinct and smell the crime. Here comes your stage, where there is a crime, there is a super hero. Listening to police broadcasts is good, but that’s illegal, in order to be safer, what about being a policeman yourself? Always be the first one know of a crime, isn’t that great? Or, much easier, what about hiring a criminal yourself? When you want an opportunity to show off in front of the public, make a call, and there is your crime! Little tip, don’t hurt anyone.

Fourth, get rid of your family. Oh, I almost can hear you screaming, “WHAT THE HELL?” I totally understand, your only doing this because you are still normal person, when you become a super hero, you will find being lonely is god damn good! You are the only one who holds the power. And your family? They are still normal people, will be your burden. They want you to go picnic with them, spend Thanksgiving and Christmas with them, how could you waste your time on such meaningless activities? The world is waiting for you to save it!

Number five, I am running out of tips, sorry, because you see… Being a super hero is such a meaningless and low-probability thing. I am not saying that super hero shouldn’t exist, they should, but only in comics and movies, they entertain us and complement our boring normal life, sometimes being a symbol that shows us a certain positive spirit, that’s all. You can still be a super hero without that “awesome” name and ridiculous uniform, join the police or become a doctor, they are the real hero in real world.

Feeling all right? Don’t worry, forget all those ridiculous tips and buy yourself some comic books, or, just go to the cinema, “The amazing spider-man 2” is on, I’m sure you will love it!

From old kaiseki cuisine, lunch dishes, to Osaka Sushi, pot noodles, rice, Add Risotto, altogether with Fish Chowder, baked scones, and fox Face Gel rice, all these contribute to the distinctive dishes beyond count of Osaka. In other words, you name it, they have it.

 

” Takoyaki” ( Octopus ) is the most representative local snacks of Osaka .

The progress is:

①Add a few pieces of boiled octopus, green onions and other material in the mixed flour and water.

②Then, put all these materials in the small circular mold and barbecue them together.

③Next, pour the special sauce after it is well-cooked, and eat while it’s still hot.

According to different sizes, a Takoyaki contains 6 to12 differ. A bite of a mouthful Takoyaki is one of Osaka people’s pleasures at any time of a day.

 

“ Okonomi” means“ ingredients can be freely chosen by yourself“. It connotes the implicit meaning of Osaka’s another popular snack behind the idea of cooking.

Progress:

①First, put the flour paste which includes Korea food, pork slices ( or other meat ), shrimp ( or other seafood), eggs and other ingredients on the hot iron and bake for a while. It shapes like a pancake after roasted.

②Before eating, pour special sauce, mayonnaise, firewood fish slices and green seaweed powder on it.

 

This well-knowed manual kneading of the sushi is called“ Edosushi”,originated from the Tokyo area.

While Osaka sushi is not alike. To be called as“ hakosushi” (square sushi ), they put sushi in a square box, at the top and middle of each layer  rice are eggs, fish, shrimp, eel fillet, sashimi, fresh mushrooms and other colorful ingredients.

 

Although the origin of odon is not Osaka, but Osaka’s shopkeepers added a thin fried tofu called” kitsune” into the soup, invented this cheap, tasty and easy to satiate food.

The sweet taste of kitsune is quite suitable for udon.

Nowadays, it has become a kind of typical Osaka food. In many special souped and hand-rolling surface small noodle shop, you can have a hot fried tofu udon.
