Back to 90s small fishing village

"Of course you can." Xu Caimei said, "Since you listened carefully to the introduction, resonated with our design concept, and the price is very generous, we believe that you will treat this work well, and naturally we will sell it to you. reasons."

There were murmurs among the crowd at first, and then there was warm applause again.

Originally, Qiao Qiao wanted to give them a check, but because Xu Caimei was worried about losing the check, she asked her to remit the money directly to "Jin Meng"'s bank account.

"Shark Meng? I seem to have heard of this name somewhere." Qiao Qiao thought for a moment, "Xu Caimei... Shark Meng... are you from the previous series of silver jewelry..."

"It made you laugh, yes, that is our silver jewelry."

"Although several years have passed since then, it's impossible for your design level to improve so quickly, right?" Qiao Qiao's expression became serious, "I seem to have said that I cannot accept shoddy designs. , or the act of stealing other people’s designs.”

"We came to the exhibition on behalf of our friends." Xu Caimei looked around and explained in a low voice, "You may have heard of a designer who returned to China because he offended someone who should not be offended..."

"You don't need to tell me, I know who it is." Qiao Qiao nodded, "It is indeed his style - but I don't think he will think about it that deeply, and he won't be so emotional."

"People change, and life experiences always bring new ideas to everyone, wouldn't you say?"

"You don't take any credit for yourself, so it's no wonder he joined you."

"You don't want to be my subordinate. We are just starting a business together."

After the exhibition ended, Xu Pingli still had not recovered from the excitement of earning five million.

"Caimei, I always feel like I'm dreaming..."

"It's true. I'll testify to you. My PHS received a text message from the bank. After excluding the organizer's commission and taxes, we still have a lot of money left."

"When did you buy a PHS?" Xu Pingli asked in surprise, "I didn't see you using it all the way."

"When I was leaving, Ping An gave it to me. He lent me my ID card a few days ago and I gave it to him. But before I left, he took a box and said it was a gift for me. When I opened it, there was a PHS card with the card inside. "

"Ping An, he thinks everything through. You two are the opposite of others, but he is a good wife."

"Is not it good?"

"I'm not saying it's bad. In today's situation, if it were him, he might be more nervous than me, and it would have to be you, Caimei." Xu Pingli said, giving a thumbs up.

The two of them left the convention and exhibition center while talking.

"Miss Xu! Miss Caimei!" After walking a few steps, someone suddenly called her from behind.

Xu Caimei turned around and saw a girl wearing a business suit.

"Hello, I am Sister Qiaoqiao's assistant. My name is Elaine. Sister Qiaoqiao would like to invite you two to have a meal. She said she has something to discuss."

"You want to talk to us?" Xu Pingli was a little surprised.

"The specific situation will be known when you two arrive." Elaine said, making a gesture of invitation.

Qiao Qiao chose a restaurant near the convention and exhibition center for the meal.

Entering the box, Xu Caimei saw Qiao Qiao and her grandfather, Qiao Chu. "Caimei, you're fine." Qiao Chu greeted her with a smile.

"Mr. Qiao, do you still remember me?"

"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. You are an interesting child, so I am naturally impressed by you." Qiao Chu laughed.

"It was too shallow at the time, and I couldn't see the truth, which made you laugh."

"Who is this--"

"Hello, Mr. Qiao, this is the first time we meet. My name is Xu Pingli. I am my business partner with Caimei."

"Welcome, stop standing and sit down."

"It's like this. I invited you here this time because I hope to cooperate with you. Not only you, but also Ms. Zhao from before." Qiao Chu said straight to the point, "The last time I was an agent, it was indeed my fault. , I didn’t expect that you two still haven’t given up and have made achievements in this industry. I just want to apologize to you and, by the way, talk to you about cooperating in organizing exhibitions.”

After hearing this, Xu Pingli felt a little dissatisfied. Xu Caimei was handling the conversation anyway, so he unconsciously became distracted.

This is obviously because now that we are useful, we know people and know how to bow our heads. It has been so long. If you really want to apologize, why didn't you apologize right then? Xu Pingli thought.

But for the benefit of everyone, no matter how dissatisfied he was, he could only keep his mouth shut and return his thoughts to the conversation between Xu Caimei and Qiao Chu.

"This is a good proposal." Xu Caimei said, "It's just that I alone cannot make the decision for everyone. Whether or not we agree to this matter will have to wait until we all discuss it before I can reply to you."

"No problem, this is my business card. Once you've discussed it, contact me and we'll discuss what to do next." Qiao Chu smiled particularly heartily and agreed readily.

After eating, Qiao Chu asked the two of them where they were staying, and Xu Caimei said they would catch the evening flight back.

For this reason, he specially sent a driver to take the two people to the airport.

"Why don't you let him take us back to the hotel? It will take a long time to get back to the hotel." Xu Pingli asked, "Why don't we go back only the day after tomorrow? We still have to buy things for them."

"If you want to spend the next few days under their harassment, just let them send you away. I don't want to be sent away." Xu Caimei sighed.

"Well, I just thought that since we all agreed, they wouldn't make things difficult for us." Xu Pingli said.

"That's not necessarily true. Do you think that if it were you, as a veteran in the industry, you would have nothing to do to apologize to a few nameless juniors?"

"Maybe I'm an easy-going senior?"

"If this is really the case, why didn't you apologize generously back then, instead of waiting until now?"

"what do you mean……"

"During the dinner just now, I saw that he kept praising He Yifan and had the intention of poaching him away." Xu Caimei frowned slightly and whispered, "I'm afraid this cooperation is just a cover. He wants to bring out the best of both of us." Poaching all the designers will dampen our spirit, right?"

"Then what should we do? How about we postpone the exhibition." Xu Pingli said, "Not to mention whether He Yifan is willing to go. If he doesn't go, I'm afraid the old man will plot against us. He Yifan is really miserable. , it’s so easy to find a place to stay, but it’s not stable anymore.”

"No, we have to participate in this exhibition. This is our opportunity. Moreover, we want He Yifan to attend as the person in charge of Meng. For this, we have to think of an absolutely appropriate way." Xu Caimei said firmly explain. (End of chapter)
