Hi! Just wanted to say thank you for this blog. I'm a Chinese American daughter of immigrants, and I've had a really hard time connecting with my cultural roots, partially because my only way of looking for recommendations and whatnot for Chinese media is through my parents... So there's not much that I find that's Chinese that I actually like. And when I try to look up stuff on the internet usually it's Japanese or Korean stuff that's recommended to me, since media-wise anime and kpop have much more international reach. So it was really exciting to me to find a collection of chinese music that's more recent and thus more likely to be to my taste than to my parents'. Idk if you're Chinese or just someone who's a fan of Chinese music, but either way I just wanted to say thank you.

Hi Anon!,

Ahh thank you for sending this - I know what you mean as I found it pretty difficult at first too, it's hard to know where to start. Especially as I'm not Chinese but I'm learning the language so I wanted to listen to some songs to help me improve. This is how I generally find new songs:

Douyin/weibo/xiaohongshu/bilibili (music being used in social media videos).

Also douyin has a top music tracks chart in the app.

Cdrama soundtracks my beloved! 🫶

Make a playlist on spotify (or equvalent) and look at the recommended songs.

Look at artist profile on spotify and check the 'people also listen to' section.

Useful search terms on spotify/youtube etc - cpop, mandopop, cdrama, gufeng, gangtai, plus different dialects.

Actually now I'm trying to find older songs out of curiosity but struggling XD.

I hope you can have an easier time connecting with your cultural roots too. I follow @dmdiaspora and I think they may have a discord group as they mention a server in the pinned post. If you're a danmei fan you might find a group of people with similar experiences there.

Thanks so much for the ask!

Richemont acquires Buccellati from Gangtai Group http://luxurytravelhub.blogspot.com/2019/09/richemont-acquires-buccellati-from.html

Richemont Buys Buccellati to Bolster Jewelry Business

(Bloomberg) — Richemont is acquiring Italian jewelry brand Buccellati to bolster its existing portfolio of Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels. The Swiss luxury-goods maker bought the Milan-based brand from Gangtai Group Corp., a Chinese investment company, for an undisclosed price. Luca Solca, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein, said it probably paid less than the 230 million euros ($250 million) the Shanghai-based investment company paid for Buccellati several years ago.

The new addition strengthens Richemont’s position in the branded-jewelry market. Jewelry has become more important for the company as it’s proven to be more resilient during economic downturns than watches. Richemont has been bolstering the unit, after Cartier introduced new lines such as Clash to attract more millennials to the brand.

“Buccellati is a brand with strong heritage and character, which can benefit from the expertise and scale of Richemont in jewelry,” Bernstein’s Solca said.

Buccellati, which celebrates its 100th anniversary this year, also makes watches and silverware, using techniques dating back to the Renaissance. Various bracelets in its collection are inspired by nobles in European history, such as the Caterina Bracelet, which features a honeycomb surface in gold and diamonds to replicate the yellow-white 16th-century silk gown in a portrait of Catherine de Medici’s wedding to King Henry II of France.

Corriere della Sera reported last year that the brand had sales of 50 million euros in 2017.

The acquisition will have no material impact on Richemont’s operating results in the current fiscal year, the Geneva-based company said in a statement Friday.
