Fog clears from Hong Kong Island

Chapter 13 The company doesn’t need a designer who plagiarizes

Liu Yang was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing. He quickly calmed down the anger on his face and spoke respectfully: "Mr. Xi."

Xi Jinbai strode over, Cheng Xiang followed him.

Sang Yu raised his eyes, his eyes met with his for a moment, and his clenched hands finally let go.

Anna also breathed a sigh of relief. Xi Jinbai was the backbone of the company. Although he was young, he was calm and steady at all times. As long as he was around, she felt at ease.

Liu Yang explained what just happened: "Sang Yu borrowed Ning Xiaoya's design, and everyone in the company knew it. I gave her a chance to apologize but she refused..."

Xi Jinbai interrupted in an indifferent voice: "So sure, it seems there must be evidence."

Liu Yang changed his aggressive attitude and said hesitantly: "This..."

Ning Xiaoya's heart was also high, unsure of Xi Jinbai's thoughts.

She comforted herself in her heart that since there was no evidence, the matter would be nothing at all in the end.

Liu Yang got stuck, and Xi Jinbai continued to ask: "Is there surveillance or witnesses?"

It was obviously just a simple question, but it revealed an intimidating aura.

The air was silent for a moment, and Anna took the initiative to take the call: "Mr. Xi, the monitoring system in the design department has been broken for a while. It was just repaired a few days ago, so it shouldn't be found."

"That is to say, there is no evidence." Xi Jinbai glanced at Liu Yang, "Then what is the reason for expelling people?"

Hearing this, Liu Yang broke out in a cold sweat and explained for himself: "Because it was Ning Xiaoya who submitted the draft first, and Sang Yu couldn't prove that her first draft was before Ning Xiaoya, so I hope she can apologize first and calm down the company's problems." Rumors should be avoided to prevent them from spreading and affecting the normal launch of this series."

With these words, he covered up his selfishness, and then shifted his starting point to considering the company.

But how could Xi Jinbai be so easy to fool? "Who is responsible for convicting someone casually before finding out the truth? If the news spreads, it will affect the company's reputation in the industry."

Liu Yang squeezed his sweaty palms and apologized quickly when he saw that the situation was not right: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xi, I didn't think carefully."

Xi Jinbai had no expression on his face and looked at Ning Xiaoya, "When did you finish the first draft?"

Ning Xiaoya recalled anxiously and answered cautiously: "November 7th, and then the final draft will be submitted on the 13th."

She deliberately stated the date of the first draft earlier, since there was no way to verify it.

"Are you sure?" Xi Jinbai asked.

Ning Xiaoya nodded, "Yeah."

“But I had read Sang Yu’s first draft in early November.”

The words that were neither cold nor cold were like a depth bomb, causing the calm water surface to explode with water splashing in all directions.

Ning Xiaoya's pupils dilated, she raised her eyes in disbelief, and met Sang Yu's indifferent gaze.

Also shocked were Liu Yang and Anna. Who would have thought that not only did Sang Yu have a witness, but this witness was also the biggest person in the company.

Invariably, they speculated about their relationship in their hearts.

Sang Yu's scalp was numb and he was thinking about how to explain later.

Xi Jinbai had already thought about it for her, "Last time, it was mistakenly included with the early winter series manuscripts, so I took a look at it."

Makes sense. Sang Yu's heart dropped to the ground. He really did everything carefully.

"So who copied whom?" Xi Jinbai's eyes were sharp, and every word was filled with coldness. "The most basic professional quality of a designer is to ensure originality. If you can't even guarantee originality, how can you talk about designing a good work? ."

Ning Xiaoya was completely panicked, her fingertips hanging by her side were trembling. Once she was found guilty of plagiarism, her career would be ruined, "Mr. Xi, I didn't. Sang Yu and I just had a collision of ideas. "

Sang Yu twitched his lips sarcastically and asked, "What kind of inspiration can inspire so much? You kept saying yesterday that I copied your work, and you changed your tune so quickly today?"

Ning Xiaoya shook her head violently and denied: "I didn't!"

"The company doesn't need a plagiarizing designer." Xi Jinbai said without hesitation, his peripheral vision shifted to Liu Yang, and his tone was warning, "Also, I hope Vice President Liu can distinguish between private and public affairs."

Click till.

Liu Yang was stunned and turned pale. It turned out that Xi Jinbai knew everything.

Ning Xiaoya's mother was the one he was dating now, so he favored Ning Xiaoya. Unexpectedly, he almost got himself involved, and Ning Xiaoya, a fool, caused him misery!

Xi Jinbai didn't say much, and just told Anna to take care of the remaining matters.
-
News of Ning Xiaoya's resignation spread like wildfire, and the truth about the plagiarism came to light.

The group exploded.

[Didn’t you say that Sang Yu copied Ning Xiaoya’s work? How come Ning Xiaoya resigned? 】

[Isn’t that obvious? Ning Xiaoya copied Sang Yu’s work and tried to bite back. Everyone in the design department knows that Sang Yu’s design has more potential than Ning Xiaoya’s. The sales volume and praise are obvious to all. Otherwise, they would really think that she is a vase? 】

[Ning Xiaoya had a higher starting point than Sang Yu, and joined the job more than a year earlier than her, otherwise the chief designer might not get her turn. 】

[It was because Sang Yu was too much of a threat to her that she did this. 】

[For the first time, I felt the intrigue in the workplace up close. It was so scary. It is said that if Sang Yu had not handed the first draft to the president by mistake, she would have been accused of plagiarism. 】

[As a result, she ruined her career with her own hands. If word of this spread, which company would dare to hire her? 】

【That's what she deserves. 】

Meng Qing felt very happy when she saw that the direction of public opinion had finally changed. She lay lazily on the table and typed: [You guys are really a bunch of people who are being pushed to the side by the wind. Yesterday, they all accused Sang Yu, but today they all changed their tone. 】

[We are accusing Sang Yu of being in two different situations. People in this department don’t believe that Sang Yu would copy Ning Xiaoya’s design. 】

Just as Meng Qing was about to refute, Cheng Xiang stepped forward to clarify.

Cheng Xiang: [Designer Sang Yu from the design department and I are just ordinary friends. Please stop spreading rumors. In addition, let me convey the president’s message. The company is not a place where people gather to discuss gossip. Please focus on your work. and life.

Finally, the president also said that although the company has academic requirements for recruiting people, it can also be admitted under special circumstances. As long as they are capable and outstanding enough, the company welcomes all elites to join. 】

He did not open anonymity, and his nickname was his real name. As soon as the news came out, everyone in the group immediately disappeared.

Who knew that the president’s special assistant was also in the melon-eating group! Each one of them was extremely grateful that they could speak anonymously.

Cheng Xiang just joined the group today, and it was Meng Qing who dragged him into the group in order to personally clarify the scandal with Sang Yu.

This group of people almost killed him. Miss Sang is obviously the CEO's woman. What does it have to do with him? It's just a lie! Even if he had a hundred courages, he wouldn't dare to cuckold the CEO!
As soon as Ning Xiaoya left, Meng Qing instantly felt that the air in the entire design department became fresher. Finally, no one was picking on her anymore.

She handed the phone to Sang Yu and said, "Sang Sang, everything has been clarified for you."
