Back to 90s small fishing village

"Grandpa!" Qiao Qiao said almost crying.

"No matter how coquettish you are, it's useless. Your exhibition this time is completely the biggest failure of the group. I had such high expectations for you, but you failed!"

"Grandpa, I heard the conversation between you and Zhao Luoming - I'm sorry that I overheard - but, Grandpa, you can't delay, you have to go to treatment quickly!" Qiao Qiao said firmly, "Whether it's going to Whether you recuperate in Switzerland or go to the United States for surgery, I will accompany you! Even if it is not for me, but for the group, please don’t give up treatment! I am still too young, and I still need you to be by my side!"

Qiao Chu raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiao Qiao in surprise. This was the first time that this strong little granddaughter had surrendered and admitted that she still had shortcomings.

Zhao Luoming hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

"Little miss, I didn't expect you to hear this... I'm sorry for not telling you earlier. The doctor called the next day and said that the test report was wrong. Mr. Qiao didn't have any serious illness. He had a simple headache all day long. It was just neuralgia. I went to the hospital last month and it was cured."

"Huh?" Qiao Qiao froze on the spot, his eyes widening.

"That's it, so what's the purpose of your sensationalism? This is the result of your emotion. I hope you have a long memory." Qiao Chu said sternly with a straight face.

"Wow, are these designs really the work of He Yifan and Qiao Qiao? And Song Ke, who felt serious just after seeing the photos, also participated? This bow-tie bear ornament is so cute!"

"And this key pendant too, it feels very playful and not like their usual style."

"As expected of the new generation of designers, their ideas and expressions are very avant-garde."

Hearing the appreciation and recognition floating in his ears, Qiao Qiao turned his eyes to Qiao Chu again.

"Grandpa, this is the result of all of our tireless efforts. Please appreciate it more seriously, instead of judging younger generations with colored glasses. Please respect us."

Qiao Chu sighed, put on his reading glasses, and carefully looked at the exhibits one by one.

Every exhibit is based on a gift that Qiao Chu once gave to Qiao Qiao, including dolls, bears, bow hairpins, and other things.

This reminded Qiao Chu that his son, Qiao Qiao's father, was always busy, and Qiao Chu also intended to train Qiao Qiao to be his successor.

Therefore, Qiao Qiao has been with Qiao Chu more often since he was a child.

When Qiao Chu was a child, she rarely spoke. This may have something to do with the fact that Qiao Chu himself was always very serious towards her. Qiao Qiao always looked at everything around him with cold eyes.

Qiao Chu was worried that her personality would have a bad impact on her growth, so he gave her gifts, more companionship, and encouraged her to make friends...

Most of the exhibits this time are made of crystal, with a metallic skeleton shell on the outside, and the gorgeous detailed shapes that He Yifan is good at. It can also be seen that Xu Caimei's hollow creative inspiration is also mixed in.

Does the cold frame contain a heart as clear as crystal? Qiao Chu shook his head. Even if it was just to sensationalize, he should change it to a more subtle and profound way, so that it would be more touching, right?

However, there is one thing to say. At first glance, there is nothing outstanding about these works, but if you look at the details carefully, you can realize the difficulty——

Several designers with different styles worked together for the same work with the same theme. While ensuring the integrity of the work, they also showed their own styles and characteristics, making the coordination of the entire work reach a very ideal level.

Qiao Chu took off his glasses and was silent for a while.

"I take back what I said. These are rare works. You have taken the trouble."

"This is the power of cooperation. Without them, you would not be able to see works like this now." Qiao Qiao said, "You have to admit that my idea is right." "Maybe your point of view is right, But no matter what, I will not change my opinion, and there is no need for us to argue about this matter."

"Grandpa, why do you always avoid talking about this matter? Times have changed!"

Qiao Chu did not respond, but walked straight towards Xu Caimei, Zhao Fengmin and others not far away.

"Mr. Qiao."

"Thank you for letting my granddaughter do whatever you want," Qiao Chu said, "I will have the financial department remit the dispatch fees to your accounts later.

"The design talents of you two are indeed as I expected. It is indeed very satisfactory. It is just a pity that the theme this time may be a bit unfair. I am sorry that you two have to participate in such a pediatric design exhibition. I hope you two can forgive me."

Song Ke and He Yifan flattered a few words and walked away quickly.

Zhao Fengmin and Xu Caimei looked at each other and didn't say much, just simply thanked them.

Perhaps things are indeed as Qiao Chu pointed out. In this exhibition, Qiao Group not only made no profit, but also lost the money invested. Xu Caimei and Zhao Fengmin's team only spent time and did not receive anything other than the dispatch fee. income.

A week after the exhibition ended, Qiao Qiao sent an email to the two of them, expressing his reflection and apology to them.

"Is she a little too pessimistic?" Xu Pingli asked while browsing the web page.

"What's wrong?" Xu Caimei asked.

"Although this exhibition did not make any direct profit, people have already discussed it on the forum - everyone seems to be quite optimistic about this kind of cooperation." Xu Pingli said.

"Moreover, several high-end pearl jewelry we have launched have already sold for over two million, and the buyers are also people who have participated in jewelry exhibitions before." He Yifan also said.

"What do you mean?"

"Although there is no direct income, this jewelry show has helped us accumulate a lot of popularity. Whether it is the sales volume of mid-to-low-end products or the turnover of high-end exhibits, they are very impressive."

"Moreover," Li Meiyan also came over, "among the people who came to apply for jobs, there were highly educated professional designers. Previously, only ordinary employees came to apply."

"Isn't this good news?" Xu Caimei looked at Li Meiyan and asked, "Why do you look a little bad?"

"That's it... Caimei, there is an application... Forget it, you should just take a look at it -" As she said that, Li Meiyan handed Xu Caimei a resume.

Xu Caimei took it and looked at it, frowning.

This is not someone else's resume, but Xu Pingcai's.

There is only one paragraph above: Xu Caimei, you are somewhat of a celebrity now. If you don’t give me the position and salary I want, I will go to the media to expose myself and tell them about our relationship. (End of chapter)
