Now he works in China. During his vocation he traveled to Yunnan province which has become a hot-area as China southwest new travel site because of its various cultures and long history.
Seven days ago, Jack came to Lijiang, a small town which reserved completely. More and more people come to this town for its cultural activities there. This town has become the focus all around the world.
Jack likes this town very much, and keeps strolling around it while he stays there. He spent one week on doing sightseeing in the beautiful mountain, and staying in an abandoned house at night. The abandoned house is of European style and totally different from the local architectural style. And it was so strange to see it there. In order to know the source, Jack asked an oldster and knew this was the headquarters of Burma War during World War II. The story brings one of his friend Mr Sun to my mind who was in California University, and he is the Grand-son of a famous Gen during World War II. Was there any relationship between them? Jack gave a call to Sun, indeed, he heard from his grand-father, who has commanded the Yenanyaung Battle of Burma Wall during World War II. Sun got to know, from some old pictures of his grand-father, that the surrounding is kept unchanged. Although the architecture is beat-up, the shape can be seen very clearly, Sun was so excited and ordered a fly to met Jack.
Jack and Sam had stayed there for two days and neither of them wanted to leave there, because it’s a paradise. Not much people know this place, even though this place is so close to Lijiang, the famous town. Maybe we should do something for it! It should have a new life.
Back in Beijing, Jack and Sun had a plan after a long consideration and their talk with a sales marketing director of one famous International Fashion Brand. With the help of local government, they launch off a series of actions. Taking full advantage of the long history and culture background, they devote themselves to create this city into “Fashion Allies ”( one base for research and display of International Fashion Brand). This base aims to corporate with many famous brands and to invite top architects in the world to work here. Thus, this area, which had played very important role in World War II, will burst into new life.
