Jens’ season: chapter nine

Saturday, February 29th

Feeling the bed shift next to him, a smile broke out on Jens' face as he remembered last night's events. His plans had completely shifted and he couldn't be more happy - sorry, Robbe.

His heart began to swell, filled with endless happiness. He had thought Lucas was asleep when he confessed his feelings to him. That's why Jens allowed himself to say those three words. Given the Dutch boy's steady and slow breathing, he should've been asleep - but he wasn't -, which turned out to be a good thing. If he had been, Lucas wouldn't have reciprocated the words.

Jens felt his smile deepen. Lucas loved him back. Life couldn't be better.

At least, at 8am on a Saturday.

Lucas woke up not long after Jens, both still sleepy but also needy. He nuzzled his face into Jens' neck and along his shoulder, fighting sleep. That boy was really cuddly in the morning. Not that Jens minded.

Jens wished all his mornings would be like this. Warm, lazy and filled with kisses from the prettiest boy. It was as close to a perfect morning as it could get.

Lucas bit Jens' bottom lip and let it go with a 'pop'. ''Do we have any plans for today? Or are we staying in bed all day? Not that I'd mind.''

''We?''

The brunet hummed, blue irises looking up at Jens. ''I told you. It's my mom's weekend. I don't need to go home. I can stay here instead.''

A content smile formed on Jens' lips. ''I'd like that very much.''

Now that Jens had come out to the boys, he could officially introduce Lucas to them, but staying home and keeping Lucas for himself sounded better. Much better.

He leaned down to join their lips together, one of his hands sliding under the blanket and down Lucas' body. His hand was about to slide inside Lucas' boxers when his bedroom door opened and Lotte walked in, forcing their little 'fun' to end before it even started.

''Lucas!'' she squealed, eyes sparkling with joy the second she saw him in her brother's bed. Lotte jumped on the bed with them, clueless about what almost happened. ''I didn't know you were here.''

Lucas forced an awkward smile, cheeks flushed from the situation.

''Does Mama know?''

''Yes.''

Lotte knitted her eyebrows, staring at her brother, trying to figure out if he was lying. ''That's a lie. If she had known, you wouldn't have been startled when I came in.''

Jens groaned. If only she knew why he was startled... ''Lotte, can you go bother someone else? It's 8am, let me go back to sleep.''

''No! Dad left for work so Mama and I are making waffles downstairs.'' She turned to Lucas. ''Are you staying for breakfast, Lucas?''

The brunet cleared his voice. ''I guess I am.''

Grinning, Lotte took Lucas' hand and tugged, trying to drag him out of bed, but the curly haired one stayed under the covers, very aware that he was only wearing underwear. No matter how much he loved Jens' mom and sister, he didn't feel comfortable enough to be walking around like that in front of Jens' family.

''Why don't you go and make sure Mom doesn't burn the pancakes? We'll join you in a minute.''

Sunday, March 1st

Spending the weekend at Jens' made room for a lot of awkward situations.

Yesterday, Lucas almost stumbled into Jens' dad when exiting the bathroom after his shower. Is there any better way to be introduced to someone? Lucas wanted to be swallowed by the ground. Then, he got caught mid-changing by Lotte. Thankfully, his pants were still on.

Their making out session had been cut short this morning when Jens' mom walked in, catching them kissing in Jens' bed. Fenna didn't say anything, both boys being still fully clothed. She just deposited the pile of clean clothes and left, leaving the door wide open instead of just ajar. Message received.

Later in the afternoon, Jens decided to leave the house to get some fresh air - aka freedom.

While he was grateful that his parents agreed to have Lucas spending the weekend over - and sleeping in his bed -, he was tired of his family breathing down his neck or constantly being interrupted by his sister. They couldn't even sleep in or have some morning cuddles without Lotte coming in and jumping on the bed. Jens really needed to learn to lock the door.

It was cloudy and gray outside - a bit cold too -, but Jens wanted some time alone with Lucas. Can you blame him?

Spoon still in his mouth, Lucas hummed, eyes closed. ''This cake.''

''It's good, uh?''

The brunet nodded avidly, cutting another piece of his cake with his spoon. ''You, Belgians know how to make desserts.''

Jens shook his head, smiling. ''You and your sweet tooth...''

As if a cake wasn't sweet enough, Lucas had ordered the sweetest one on the menu: a chocolate mousse cake. Even though Luc had told Jens how much he loved chocolate, he didn't realize until now exactly how big of a sweet tooth he really had.

Jens watched the thick, yet smooth chocolate mousse disappear into the brunet's mouth. He cleared his throat and averted his eyes, reminding himself where they were. He tried to keep his mind from wandering to a dangerous place, but it wasn't easy. It seemed, sometimes, like Lucas made every minor actions somewhat suggestive, and he knew exactly the effect it would have on Jens.

''Want a taste?'' Lucas asked, raising an eyebrow.

Turning his attention back to him, Jens nodded. Why not? He wasn't a big fan of desserts, but the chocolate mousse seemed really tasty. He opened his mouth, ready to taste the sweet desert, but Lucas put the spoon in his own mouth, making Jens frown and pout.

''Hey! That was for me.''

Lucas shrugged. ''Sorry, but this cake is just too good to share.''

''Tease''

Smiling smugly, Lucas blew him a kiss over the table before returning to his plate.

Jens pulled up his phone, snapped a picture of Lucas - he was just too cute to not capture this moment - when a notification from the selling app popped up. ''Yes!''

Lucas glanced at his boyfriend, confused.

''Someone is interested in something I'm selling,'' Jens explained.

''What are you selling?''

''Oh, just games I don't play anymore.'' He shrugged. ''They were collecting dust.''

It wasn't a huge sale. Only some game at 7€, but, it was 7€ less to find to pay back the drugs Lucas had flushed.

Lucas frowned, taking a sip of his fancy coffee. ''Why are you selling your video games online? Can't you go to a game store for that? Jayden does it all the time.''

''Yeah, but they only offer discounts on other games. I need money.''

''What for?''

Jens sighed. He didn't want to involve Lucas any more in his problems, but he already knew about the drugs, so why not. ''Remember when you saved my ass and got rid of the drugs in my locker? Well, my dealer texted me and he wants his money. I have some cash from the weed I sold and other stuff, but what has been flushed needs to be paid too. I can't just tell him I almost got caught and had to get rid of them.''

''I can help. It's partly my fault that you have to repay him.''

Jens shook his head. ''No. It's my fault that I'm caught in this shit.''

''And, it's my fault that they're in the sewers somewhere in Antwerp.'' Lucas paused. ''We could always try to retrieve them...''

Jens wrinkled his nose in disgust. The pills had probably all dissolved by now anyway. ''Ew, gross.''

''So, are you taking my offer?'' Jens hesitated and Lucas smiled at him. ''You can pay me back if you want to. In cash or...other,'' he added, winking over the table.

''I'll think about it.''

Monday, March 2nd

''What the fuck, man? Why did you shoot me?''Jens asked through the headphone's mic as his character received a bullet to the chest.

''Sorry, I thought it was Aaron.''

Jens laughed, looking around on his TV screen to find Aaron and shoot him, laughing harder as he did so.

''Hey! Why is everyone trying to kill me?''

''Because it's fun,'' Moyo responded.

paused his video game when he saw Michiel's name on the screen. He bit his lip anxiously before opening the message.

Michiel: Where's my cash, kid? Ghosting me won't work. I need it by Thursday. Or else...

Jens stared at the screen for what felt like a lifetime. Michiel was now threatening him. Jens had to do something quick or he was going to be in real danger. Who knew what Michiel - or his men - were capable of? He couldn't tell Lucas why he had suddenly changed his mind and he felt bad for asking his boyfriend for money - Lucas wasn't his personal banker -, but he needed the money sooner rather than later.

Jens: Is your offer still standing? I don't think I'll sell enough shit by Thursday

Lucas: I told you I'd help, didn't I?

Lucas: When do you need it for?

Jens: Thursday

Lucas: Want me to come with?

Jens: No. I'll be fine

Lucas: Is that supposed to be reassuring?

Jens: I'll be fine, Luc

Lucas: Okay... but I want you to text me when you get there and when you leave just so I know you are safe

Jens: 👍

Wednesday, March 4th

The television was playing loudly when Fenna returned from work, some sort of anime on the big screen. She furrowed her eyebrows at the unfamiliar characters, her heart aching at the explicit content flashing across the screen. How can teenagers watch that?

''Sorry for finishing so late. There was a big car accident and I had to do extra time to help,'' she explained, removing her jacket and setting her bag down. ''Did Lotte eat already?''

''No, I let her starve,'' the teenager answered from the couch.

Fenna gave her son a look. ''Jens...''

He flashed his mother a smile. ''I'm joking. I reheated last night's leftovers.''

''Good. Where's is she?''

''Upstairs playing in her room. Want me to tell her to come down?''

Before he could call Lotte down, Fenna shook her head. ''No. That's good, actually. I wanted to talk to you.''

Jens frowned, trying to read his mother's face but failing. She came around to sit on the couch and he turned down the volume of the television.

''You...you were right. About your father. He lied to my face about this job, he lied to all of us.'' Fenna closed her eyes, her husband's lie still fresh.

She had gone to see Mohamed on her lunch break between shifts since the hospital wasn't far from his new office - and he wasn't answering his phone. When Fenna got there, she asked to see him and was told that he didn't work there and never had.

''After a lot of difficult thinking, I made a decision and I wanted you to be the first to know about it. Your father and I will be separating.''

''As in a divorce?''

Fenna nodded slowly. She didn't want to get a divorce - nobody does. Divorce felt like a failure to a lot of people. But, it was the right choice to make. ''I still love your father, but sometimes love isn't enough. Money might not buy happiness, but without money, we can't live in this house.''

''We?'' Jens repeated. ''That means we're going to...move?''

Exhaling a breath, Fenna nodded sadly. ''I didn't want to. I did everything in my power to stay here, but I can't afford this house on my own.''

Jens swallowed thickly, a wave of sadness flowing in. He wasn't one to get attached to things, but loved this house. He spent his whole life here. Every corner and walls held a memory. The staircase where he broke his arm when he fell with his bike when he was five, the dining room table where him and his mom used to sit and work on his spelling homework, his bedroom where he had his first makeout session and the place he lost his virginity.

''What about Dad?''

He didn't want to be insensitive, but where will his father go? Clearly, he won't be following them after the divorce.

''His brother lives in Liège, he'll be staying with him for a moment. Or, so he said.''

Jens nodded. Maybe a change of scenery will be good for him. Maybe it'll help him get back on track.

Thursday, March 5th

His hands were clammy as he crossed the street, seeing Michiel's building in his line of sight. After his parents' divorce announcement, Jens wasn't in the mood to meet with Michiel, but he didn't really have the choice. Michiel had been clear: he wanted his money. He didn't care whatever was happening in Jens' personal life.

All the money was in his left pocket, feeling heavy, and a worried Lucas was in the other, sending him texts every ten seconds.

Jens stood on the doorstep and rang the doorbell, stress growing in his stomach. He bit his lip as he waited, going still when the door opened and the same big guy who was there the first time stood there.

''Long time no see,'' he pointed out.

''Is Michiel here? I have his money.''

The man nodded and let Jens in, the door shutting loudly behind.

''So, it's over? No more drug dealing shit?''

Jens hummed. ''It's over.'' He kissed Lucas in the middle. ''No more drug dealing shit.''

Lucas rolled his eyes at the small mockery. ''Good.'' He sighed, relieved.

After leaving Michiel's, Jens came over to Lucas' to reassure him and take advantage of Mr. Van Der Heijden being at work. They hadn't had a lot of alone time during the weekend despite Lucas sleeping over, so it was nice to be just the two of them again.

Lucas led them to the couch and cuddled against Jens, being the cuddle-bear he will never admit to be. Some things were just for Jens and him to know.

''I could fall asleep right here and now,'' Lucas pointed, closing his eyes as Jens played with his curls, twirling the soft ringlets between his fingers.

''Am I that much of a bore? Because I can go home if-''

Clutching a fistful of Jens' hoodie, Lucas made a protest noise. ''Don't you dare.''

Jens laughed and kissed his forehead, feeling Lucas pulling him in closer. He was keenly aware of Lucas' wants and needs and cuddling was Lucas' unspoken signal of reassurance that he would always be there for him.

''So, now that you've met my family, when am I going to meet yours?'' Jens asked, mildly teasing, breaking the comfortable silence first.

Lucas grew quiet, staring down at the carpet in front of the couch, the shades of browns and greys suddenly very interesting.

''Do you...not want me to meet your parents or something?'' Jens asked, silently hoping it wasn't that.

The brunet sat up, removing himself from Jens' hold. ''No, no. That not- It's just, I've never introduced someone to my parents...like that.''

''You mean a guy?''

''No girls either, if it reassures you,'' Lucas added with a bit of humor.

''You've told your mom about me, though?''

''Yes, but it's complicated. With my mom, we can't just schedule a date and have dinner all together. She might get anxious or she can- So many things can go wrong.''

''Or it could go well.''

Lucas sighed, moving away from his boyfriend's touch. ''Jens...''

''And, your dad?''

‘’My dad’s a dick. I only moved with him because the judge said I had to. It was that or going to a foster family. My dad might be a dick, but he’s not the worst. There’s kids out there that need fostering more than me, some who are stuck in abusive families or even orphans. I would’ve felt bad for taking someone’s place. Entering the foster system would’ve also meant not seeing my mom anymore and I can’t renounce to that.’’ Lucas paused, swallowing his emotions. ‘’She needs me. I’m all she has left. I can’t do that to her.’’

By the way his voice was strained, Jens could tell that it was still a difficult subject. Lucas was close to his mother. Hearing his story made Jens wonder how bad her mental illness was. If a judge had declared her inapte to take care of him, it must be serious. It was also so sad to hear that her husband had completely pushed her out of his life just because of her mental illness. She was lucky to have a son like Lucas.

As much as he wanted to meet Lucas’ parents, it wasn’t worth putting Lucas - nor his parents - in this state. Causing trouble in his boyfriend’s family wasn’t what Jens wanted.

He shook his head. ‘’Forget what I said, okay? I’ll meet them when you’re ready. No pressure.’’ He flashed Lucas a small smile which got reciprocated.

Lucas nodded, grateful to have someone as understanding as Jens. ‘’I love you.’’

‘’I love you,’’ Jens repeated, pulling the smaller one back into his hold.

Friday, March 6th

‘’Is Lucas coming?’’ Aaron asked, leaning against the kitchen counter.

Jens nodded, taking a sip of his beer. ‘’He said he’s on his way.’’

An eager smile spread on Aaron’s lips. ‘’So, I’m gonna meet him?’’ he added, unable to contain his excitement.

‘’You’ve met Lucas before...’’

‘’Yeah, but not as your boyfriend. This is a big deal-’’

‘’Aaron…’’

He shrugged. ‘’What? I didn't say it the other day, but I’m happy for you. I liked Jana, but Lucas is much cooler. At least he skates with us instead of sitting and watching.’’

Jens raised an eyebrow. ‘’Cooler than Sander?’’

‘’Don’t push.’’

After Robbe, Aaron was Sander’s biggest fan. He was never shy to voice how much admiration he had for him whether it was his flirting tactics, his confidence, romantic gestures or how good looking he was. It even became a running joke in the gang that if Sander wasn't already taken by Robbe, the curly haired one would tempt his chance.

‘’Your boy is here,’’ Aaron pointed out, nudging Jens as he saw Lucas walking in.

Jens looked up, watching as Lucas squeezed a path between the dancing girls in the living room and some shotgun drinkers. He grimaced at the mess it was making on the floor and scanned the room, trying to find his boyfriend, fastening his pace when he spotted him and Aaron in the kitchen.

Jens greeted him with a kiss, getting some cooing from Aaron. Could he be more annoying? Lucas leaned into Jens as the latter hooked an arm over his shoulder, pulling him close.

‘’So, you’re Jens’ boyfriend?’’

Jens rolled his eyes and groaned. ‘’Let’s go look for Moyo and Robbe.’’

They all sat in the bathroom, passing around weed and booze, like the old days. Moyo had brought some weed and smoke was rapidly filling the bathroom as they all blew their thick, grey puffs into the air.

It was the first time they all hung out together - Lucas and Sander included. Jens and Lucas squeezed in next to Robbe and Sander in the tub, laughing as Aaron vented about his latest romantic gesture that turned into an epic fail. Honestly, when does it not?

''I had the room all set up and everything,’’ he explained. ‘’Candles, flower petals, her favorite scented bath stuff, but then her mom came home and ruined my surprise before we could even get in the water. I tried telling Amber that we can still go in, but she said it was too weird if her mom was in the house.’’

Amber’s bathtub. Lucas shared glances with Jens, memories of their first kiss flowing in.

Sander sighed. ‘’Robbe’s the same, he won’t-’’

Knowing where this was going, Robbe didn’t let Sander finish his sentence, covering his mouth with his hand before he could say any more, refusing to let this turn into another let’s tell Aaron about our sex-life episode.

‘’Why did you stop? It was getting interesting,’’ Aaron complained.

‘’Quit encouraging Sander into telling you stuff. It’s private.’’

‘’And weird,’’ Jens added, backing his best friend.

‘’You’re the one who used to brag about sex-’’

Jens rolled his eyes. ‘’I don't brag…’’

He did tell everyone about losing his virginity and the sex he had with Jana - what else does fifteen years old do? And, he ranted about that toothpaste tip...a lot, but he wasn’t on Aaron’s level of bragging.

‘’Well, if you really want to know, there’s this amazing thing Jens does with his-’’ Lucas stopped himself, a smug grin on his lips. ‘’Did you really think I was going to tell you?’’

‘’I like him,’’ Moyo commented, giving Lucas a high five.

The gesture didn’t go unnoticed by Jens. It was nice to see that Lucas was integrating well into their group.

“So, since we have two new guys in the group, maybe we should get to know you both better?” Aaron suggested, waiting for his turn to take a puff.

“Dude, why do you always have to be in everyone's business?” Moyo asked.

''Don’t you know Sander enough already? You've pestered him with questions ever since Robbe said they were dating,’’ Jens said, making Robbe laugh.

Lucas felt his phone buzz and reached into his pocket to see who it was. Noting the number, he silenced the call and put his phone back in his pocket, returning his attention to the boys.

Aaron shrugged. “I’m just trying to get to know my best friends' boyfriends. If they are important to them, I want to get to know them better and let them know we care enough to get to know them.”

Sander snorted. “How profound and thoughtful of you, Aaron. I feel much more appreciated.”

Robbe laughed as Jens grabbed the joint from Moyo and took a hit. He had hesitated at first, remembering recent events, but figured that weed was a better coping method than Xanax. And, he wasn’t going to let himself get so high. Just a couple puffs to have a nice buzz.

He was about to hand it to Lucas when his phone went off - again. Sighing, Lucas pulled it out of his jacket and frowned.

‘’Gotta take this. It’s the third time he’s called, it must be important. I’ll be right back.’’

Jens nodded and watched as Lucas rose to his feet, leaving Jens’ side and headed outside to answer the phone call in a more quiet place.

The second the door closed, Sander whistled. ‘’I didn’t believe Robbe when he told me you two got together. Does he still steal your fries?’’

Rolling his eyes, Jens shook his head.

Minutes later, the door opened and Lucas’ face was worried and distraught, his previous lightness and drunken happiness completely gone.

Jens furrowed his eyebrows. ‘’Luc?’’ He sat up, recognizing a frantic and panicked behavior.

‘’I-I gotta go,’’ he simply said, ignoring Jens’ question and grabbing his jacket on the edge of the tub before leaving again, not saying ‘bye’ to anyone.

The boys watched confusedly and gave Jens a look, but the latter wasn’t paying attention to them, his eyes focused solely on Lucas. Jens stood, handing the joint back to Robbe, and went after his boyfriend, wondering what he had been told on the phone that made him want to leave the party so fast.

He didn't catch up to him until they were outside, the amount of people inside the house made it difficult to get a hold of Lucas. The evening wind hit his face the second he stepped out, sending a shiver down Jens’ back. He grabbed Lucas’ arm when he was close enough to reach and made him stop.

‘’Slow down, Luc. Why are you leaving?'' he asked, releasing his arm.

Lucas turned around, eyes filled with tears but he fought them. ''My dad. He said-'' He interrupted himself, shaking his head, voice trembling and faulty as he spoke.

Jens frowned, going immediately into comforting mode. Something was up, but the Dutch boy was talking so fast and the panic in his voice made it more difficult for Jens to understand what he was saying.

He lifted Lucas' chin, catching sight of his glassy blue eyes. ''Hey...tell me what’s going on. I can’t help you or understand if you don’t tell me.’’

‘’My mom. It’s- She’s going to be admitted to a clinic, I… I have to go.’’

Tumblr is having issues it seems so hopefully, the third time’s a charm. 😅 Dear Skippy & readers,

A few days ago I was watching an episode of a Dutch late night talk show called ‘Jinek’ with one of the guests being Michiel Vos, the husband of Nancy Pelosi’s youngest daughter Alexandra. He was there to talk about Trump’s alleged abuse of power. Even before the whole conversation started Michiel mentioned that he recently had a private dinner with Nancy Pelosi, former cricketer and Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan and Richard Gere + his latest wife Alejandra Silva. Amal Clooney was supposed to be there also but didn’t show up which he was kind of bummed about. This information rang bells immediately: did he reveal too much here and can we link that to something? Do they want to get rid of Trump hoping all the dirt doesn’t reach the surface? Or was it just simply an innocent gathering? The episode was originally aired on September 25th, 2019, so that dinner must’ve took place on monday the 23rd.

Keep up the good work everyone and stay positive! With love from the Netherlands 🌷

Thank you. Very interesting.....love to you Netherlands!😊❤️❤️❤️❤️

{ MICHIEL HUISMAN. THIRTY-EIGHT. CIS MAN. HE/HIM } i was out wrestlin’ gators when i saw EVERETT MONTGOMERY. you know they have been in town for THIRY-EIGHT YEARS now? they current work as a BAKER. i love having them around, they're CALM & INTUITIVE, but sometimes they can be UNFRIENDLY & PRICKLY. well, hope to see them ‘round more!

hello this is everett ( occasionally rhett by those who know him well enough ) and he’s a baker. his bakery is called the bread box ( he makes bread and a ton of other things). he didn’t name it, his father did ( rip mr. everett montgomery sr. ), and he’s not keen on it, but he sees no use in changing it now. it’s an establishment now, after all. the bakery is open every day of the week except monday and tuesday. his sleep hours are fucked because he wakes up at midnight to be baking by two am, and he is usually asleep in the afternoon by four pm.

he grew up in marais with his father. his mother was a flighty thing who decided a child and husband weren’t for her. but he grew up in his father’s bakery and childhood was as fine as it could be — of course, he left marais as soon as he could. it was sleepy and dull and he wanted something more. but fate is a cruel bitch and his father got sick during his senior year of college. everett dropped out of school and returned to marais and the bakery. he’s never resented his father. maybe he was always just meant to end up there.

he and his bakery sponsor a little league team. he’s always donating to bake sales. the day-old bread gets donated to a food bank at the end of the day. he’s prickly but he’s a secret softie. he cares more than he lets on. he’s just tired and worn out. he did imagine a life more than marais, he’s resigned himself to that fact, but sometimes he lets himself daydream. whether that’s a good thing is up in the air.

he lives above the bakery. he’s not really known for having an identity outside of the bakery? but rhett fishes occasionally, and on that rare occasion he’s awake in the late afternoon, he’ll go to the bar and have a drink. he lives to bake. it’s not a bad thing. he knows the regulars, their orders, and he can hold a conversation with ease if business is slow. he likes knowing the town and his neighbors, even if they don’t know him beyond being the baker.

he was married years ago, just after coming back to marais. he came back and reconnected with a childhood friend. the marriage didn’t last long, he was widowed, and he hasn’t really … dated since. he’s married to his work. to a loaf of bread. maybe a nice baguette.

connection ideas:

—people who come into the bakery a lot ???? —friends ???? someone who deals with rhett being grumpy 90% of the time ???? they probably became friends because they were just around each other a lot and rhett was like : “ is this friendship ? “ he gives his friends free baked goods, that’s how he shows affections —he’s been in marais for an eternity, i’m sure he’s dated someone —someone ???? who works in his bakery ??? used to work in his bakery ?????

DHL Express, bir sonraki e-ticaret büyüme dalgasının başladığını söylüyor https://ift.tt/3m8eMV1

DHL Express’in yeni raporuna göre online B2B ticaret 2027’e kadar yüzde 70’ten fazla artarak 20,9 trilyon dolar seviyelerine ulaşacak (2019’da 12,2 trilyon dolar)

Covid-19 pandemisi dijital dönüşümün itici gücü olurken B2C ve B2B e-ticaret büyümesine ivme kazandırıyor

DHL Express 2020 mali yılını tarihindeki en iyi sonuçla kapadı (VFÖK: Önceki yıla göre yüzde 34,9 artarak 2,7 milyar euro oldu)

Dünyanın lider uluslararası ekspres kargo hizmet sağlayıcısı DHL Express, bugün “B2B e-ticaret Kılavuzu: e-ticaret’te yeni büyüme dalgası” başlıklı yeni raporunu duyurdu. Çalışmada, B2B e-ticaretin önümüzdeki yıllarda giderek büyüyeceği öngörülüyor. 2025 itibarıyla tedarikçiler ile satın alma profesyonelleri arasındaki tüm B2B etkileşimlerinin yüzde 80’inin dijital kanallarda gerçekleşeceği tahmin ediliyor. Covid-19 pandemisinin dijitalleşmenin hızı üzerindeki etkisi ve teknolojiye hakim milenyum kuşağının satın alma gücü, e-ticaretin küresel ölçekteki büyümesinin itici güçleri arasında öne çıkıyor.

B2B sektörünün geleceği için öngörülenler, son yıllardaki ciddi B2C e-ticaret artışıyla da kendini gösteriyordu. Bu doğrultuda DHL Express de özellikle yılbaşı, “Black Friday” ve “Cyber Monday” gibi alışveriş çılgınlığının yaşandığı günlerde son yıllarda yüksek büyüme oranları kaydediyor. DHL Express ağındaki toplam B2C e-ticaret hacmi, 2020’de önceki yıla kıyasla yaklaşık yüzde 40 arttı. Bu gelişme, şirketin 2020 yılı finansal sonuçlarına da olumlu yansıdı. Deutsche Post DHL Group’un ekspres kargo birimi, geçtiğimiz seneyi toplam 19,1 milyar euro ciro (önceki yıla göre yüzde 11,9 artış) ve 2,7 milyar euro VFÖK (önceki yıla göre yüzde 34,9 artış) ile kapatarak yarım yüzyılı aşan geçmişindeki en iyi sonuçlara ulaştı. DHL Express, küresel ağı ve hizmet sunduğu sektörlerin kapsamı sayesinde hızla değişen ticari taleplere yanıt verebildi. Ayrıca, 220’den fazla ülke ve bölgedeki varlığıyla pandemi sırasında da tüketicilerin ve işletmelerin dünya çapında ticaret yapmalarını sağlayarak bağlantıda kalmalarına destek oldu.

John Pearson: Covid-19’un anahtarı e-ticaret ve küresel lojistik

Tüm dünyada kepenklerin kapandığı dönemde, dijitalleşme ve global ticaret sayesinde küreselleşmenin hatırlandığını belirten DHL Express CEO’su John Pearson, pandemide tüketicilerin online alışverişe yöneldiğini ifade etti. Pearson “Pandemi bu gelişmeyi şimdiye dek görülmemiş bir şekilde hızlandırırken küresel pazarda ürün satan işletmeler de arttı. Böylece e-ticaret ve küresel lojistik, yerel kapanmaların kilidini açacak, ekonomilerin devamlılığını sağlayacak ve birçok müşterimiz için Covid-19’un etkisini azaltacak bir anahtar haline geldi.” dedi

e-ticaretteki büyüme Covid-19 ile ivme kazandı

Dijitalleşme ve alışveriş alışkanlıklarındaki değişimler nedeniyle büyüyen tek sektör B2C e-ticaret olmadı. Statista’nın verilerine göre pandemi başlamadan önce 2019’da, B2B e-ticaret siteleri ve pazar yerlerindeki satışlar, küresel ölçekte B2C sektörünün pazar büyüklüğünü geride bırakmış, yüzde 18,2 artarak 12,2 trilyon dolara ulaşmıştı. Research And Markets’in araştırmasına göreyse Covid-19 ve hızlandırdığı dijitalleşme sayesinde bahsedilen bu küresel B2B e-ticaret hacminin 2027 yılına kadar 20,9 trilyon dolara ulaşacağı tahmin ediliyor.

Pandemi ile birlikte online alışveriş ve sınır ötesi sevkiyatların yeni normale dönüştüğünü anlatan DHL Express Küresel Satışlar Başkan Yardımcısı Michiel Greeven, bu durumun sadece B2C perakendecileri için değil B2B e-ticaret için de geçerli olduğunu belirtti. Şirketlerin online satış platformlarının önemini kavramaya başladığını ifade eden Greeven, küresel ekspres kargoya duyulan ihtiyacın da artacağını ve DHL Express olarak tüm B2B şirketlerini yolculuklarında destekleyeceklerini ifade etti.

Milenyum kuşağı da B2B e-ticaretin muazzam potansiyelini tetikliyor

DHL Express tarafından derlenen rapor, küresel B2B e-ticaret pazarındaki büyümenin itici gücü niteliğindeki faktörleri ortaya koyuyor. Küreselleşme ve dijitalleşme gibi genel trendlerin yanı sıra teknoloji odaklı milenyum kuşağı da e-ticareti büyütüyor. Milenyum kuşağı şimdiden karar verici pozisyonlardaki B2B satın alma profesyonellerinin yüzde 73’ünü oluşturuyor. Bu kuşağın B2C sektöründeki deneyimleri, B2B işlemleri yaparken yüksek beklentilere dönüşüyor ve şirketleri satış platformları gibi dijital yatırımlara yönlendiriyor.

DHL Express Küresel Satış Programları ve Küresel e-ticaret Başkan Yardımcısı Leendert van Delft yeni sınır ötesi ve e-ticaret fırsatlarından yararlanmak isteyen B2B işletmelere, değişen satın alma davranışlarına adapte olmaları gerektiğini hatırlattı ve şöyle devam etti: “Sektörün dijitalleşmesine ivme kazandıran milenyum kuşağının giderek B2B sektöründe karar verici roller alması bu açıdan daha büyük önem taşıyor. B2B müşteri deneyimlerinin dijital B2C deneyimleriyle daha uyumlu olması gerekiyor. Biz, uluslararası e-ticaret uzmanları olarak işletmelerin sürekli değişime adapte olmalarını ve potansiyellerini gerçeğe dönüştürmelerini destekleyecek bilgi birikimine ve iç görülere sahibiz.”

DHL Express yüksek müşteri talebini karşılamak için yatırımlarını sürdürüyor

DHL Express’in 2020’de dünya çapındaki müşterileri (B2C ve B2B) için teslim ettiği toplam gönderi sayısı, 2019’a kıyasla günlük ortalama yüzde 9 artışla 484 milyon adede ulaştı. DHL Express, ağındaki bu ihtiyaca yanıt vermek amacıyla dünya çapında ileri teknolojili tesislere 1 milyar euro’dan fazla yatırım yapıyor; böylece gönderi ayrıştırma kapasitesini (2013’ten bu yana yüzde 65) artırıyor, yeni çalışanlar (işgücü önceki yıla göre 10 bin kişi büyüdü) istihdam ediyor ve filosuna (önceki yıla göre 20 uçak daha fazla) yeni kargo uçakları ekliyor. DHL Express bir süre önce sekiz adet Boeing B777 geniş gövdeli kargo uçağı daha satın aldığını ve filosuna iki Airbus A321 katmak için Smartlynx Malta ile iş birliği yaptığını duyurdu. DHL Express, bu sayede dünya çapındaki müşterilerinin küresel e-ticaretteki patlamadan yararlanmasını sağlamaya devam ediyor.

Bibliografia - Bibliografia de Elvis Presley

Em sua maioria, é possível notar que os trabalhos de Luhrmann são estritamente sobre os gêneros drama, romance e musical. Isso é facilmente relacionado com os habituais excessos e exageros visuais de suas produções, que se justificam por serem comuns dentro dos temas que mais aborda em seus trabalhos, sendo eles filmes, filmes musicais, peças musicais e curtas.

Forma: Fotografia, Edição, Movimento de Câmera e etc.

Movimentação inquieta das câmeras; Movimentação agitada das personagens; Paleta de cores forte e específica, seguindo a situação do momento; Trilha sonora determinada e guiada pelas emoções dos personagens, assim como a iluminação; Modo que os personagens falam é determinado pelo tema, pela época que o filme retrata, por suas personalidades e principalmente pelo teor mais exagerado e carregado, até mesmo no figurino.

VISÃO DA CRÍTICA ESPECIALIZADA

Crítica número 1:

Segundo Ritter Fan, do "Plano Crítico" o filme de 1996 "tem uma edição muito apressada e histérica" que segundo o crítico, se mostra desnecessária, uma vez que em alguns momentos o filme se assemelha com um videoclipe. Fan ainda compara a obra com outros filmes do diretor, alegando que assim como fez em outros longas Baz Luhrmann poderia ter adotado sequencias maiores e um ritimo menos acelerado em "Romeu+Julieta"

O crítico chama o filme de um "ataque visual", e embora se trate de algo original e visualmente interessante, no decorrer da obra tal forma gera incômodo e tem como consequência desviar a atenção do espectador da trama centra.

Por fim, Ritter afirma que embora não tenha agradado em todos os momentos, a obra é fiel ao estilo de Luhrmann e ao mesmo tempo consegue ser original e inovador na hora de contar uma história tão clássica.

Crítica número 2:

Segundo Guilherme Callegari, o filme tem como ponto forte a direção e o direcionamento artístico do filme que faz de uma forma muito certeira a modernização dessa obra clássica. Além disso, o crítico afirma que a fotografia faz um ótimo trabalho separando e evidenciando a dualidade das duas famílias.

Porém, Calegari traz pontos negativos que acabam afetando a obra como o mal uso do CGI, uso excessivo de câmera lenta que ao serem assistidos hoje envelheceram mal. Ademais, ele comenta sobre as não tão empolgantes cenas de ação que durante o filme acabam não empolgando.

Por fim, ele termina afirmando que "é um filme que já passou de vinte anos, mas que pouco envelheceu, por esse e por outros motivos já falados acima eu recomendo muito que todos vejam", mesmo sabendo que se trata de um estilo que nem sempre funciona para todos

CAMPANHA COMENTADA

Campanha: Chanel n5 - The One That I Want (2014)

Baz Luhrmann, em 2004 realizou uma campanha para Chanel n5, com uma forte inspiração em seu filme Moulin Rouge, inclusive estrelou com a Nicole Kidman e foi uma superprodução de mais de 20 milhões de dólares. E 10 anos depois, Baz Luhrmann voltou a dirigir uma superprodução da Chanel.

Nesta nova campanha, estrelando a modelo brasileira Gisele Bundchen, que interpreta uma modelo, surfista, mãe e uma grande mulher empoderada, ao som de uma versão da clássica “You’re the One That I Want” de Grease, porém mais lenta, romântica e melancólica, realizada por Lo-Fang. Além disso conta com a participação do ator Michiel Huisman, como o amante apaixonado por Giselle, ao qual ele possui medo de se iludir.

A publicidade se inicia com uma mistura de cenas, ora a modelo mergulhando em uma água cristalina, brilhante, utilizando sua roupa e prancha com símbolos da marca, ora andando nas ruas de uma cidade no escuro da noite, iluminada pelas luzes da Chanel, e a todo momento se passa a música, onde em certas partes mostra um jovem rapaz cantando-a, e estar cenas se misturam com as de Giselle, uma fazendo parte dentro da outra, dando uma certa união entre todas as cenas com estas passagens tão mescladas como se fossem uma coisa só. A todo momento podemos perceber que todos os movimentos da modelo são extremamente delicados e calculados, quase como se estivesse em câmera lenta, mostrando um pouco da delicadeza do perfume, onde até mesmo fazendo um esporte como o surf, ela ainda possui toda sua classe.

Após estas cenas, o cenário se altera um pouco, mostrando cenas do Michiel observando a surfista com um ar de preocupação, um certo medo, podemos notar que todas as expressões são muito nítidas e caras, com muito enfoque para compreendermos as emoções, então ele vai e deixa um recado para ela e parte de sua casa. E por alguns momentos dá a entender que ela está correndo atrás dele, porém vemos que ela só está olhando-o pela janela ir embora e sente um pesar, uma tristeza, mas isso logo é cortado quando sua filha aparece e a abraça. Entretanto ocorre uma mistura de emoções por parte dela, onde em momentos percebemos que ela está aflita e em outros tranquila, dando uma mistura de contrastes em suas emoções, porém ao utilizar o perfume N5, toda sua confiança e poder voltar, e então ela vai atrás do Michiel, onde se encontram e se beijam.
