Hearing Violet’s words, Jessie didn't say anything anymore. She picked up the design book on the side and prepared to go to the factory.
The design of the new season had been finalized. She had to supervise the garment making at the factory department.
After Jessie left, Violet was sitting behind her desk and started busy with her work.
After a while, she suddenly received a phone call. It was from Aadam, the secretary of that mysterious Mr. Dixon, "Hello, Violet, Mr. Dixon has read the first draft. He said there is no problem."
"Well, that's great." Violet showed a surprise smile, and then asked, "Can I meet Mr. Dixon? I have several points about the follow-up design that I would like to discuss with him. I want to know what style he likes."
"Maybe it can’t. Mr. Dixon has been abroad recently. But Mr. Dixon said, everything is in accordance with your style." Aadam said.
Did he trust her so much?
Violet raised her eyebrows, "Well, I see."
"Then I'll hang up first." Aadam finished speaking and hung up.
Violet smiled helplessly and put down the phone. Then she picked up the pencil on the table, and continued to work.
In the afternoon, Violet received a text message from Design Association, asking her to draw a number for the competition.
Unexpectedly, there was actually good news. Because of ‘Born of Fire’, she could take the first few rounds of the game bye, and directly became top 16.
Design Association really recognized her.
Violet smiled with holding the number sixteen entry card and was about to go back.
But at this moment, an abrupt voice of doubt suddenly sounded in the conference room, "This is not fair!"
The conference room fell silent for an instant. Everyone looked at the speaker.
Violet also looked over, staring at Phoebe in the middle of the first three rows and narrowing her eyes.
She knew that as long as Phoebe was there, there would always be waves.
"Where is it unfair?" The secretary who presided over the draw looked at Phoebe who disturbed the orders, feeling a little unhappy.
She actually questioned the unfairness of their draw in public?
"Of course the competition system is unfair. Why should we all start from the initial knockout round but she can go straight to the top 16." Phoebe pointed at Violet with a distorted face.
Some of the people who felt unfair at first, but hadn't said anything. Hearing Phoebe's questioning, they looked at Violet with dissatisfaction, as if Violet had robbed them of something.
Violet sneered, but said nothing.
Because she knew that she didn't need to make her own for the time being, Secretary Bruce would help her fight back.
Sure enough, Bruce slammed the conference table with a gloomy face, "Be quiet! Didn't I make it clear just now? The reason why Violet can go straight to the top 16 is because of ‘Born of Fire’ But what about you guys?"
He glanced sharply at the people below, "What are your achievements? Your design is comparable to Violet's ‘Born of Fire’? If it is comparable, just show it out. If I think it is good, I can arrange you to go straight to top 16. But do you have anyone?"
Some of the people who thought it was unfair knew they were wrong. They just lowered their heads and stopped talking.
However, some people still felt dissatisfied, but they only dared to talk in their hearts.
Upon seeing this, Bruce's face eased a lot. He was about to announce that the draw would continue. Suddenly, Phoebe stood up with a cane, "I have!"
Hearing this, Violet raised her eyebrows and suddenly smiled.
Phoebe had it? Was she insane?
To put it bluntly, Phoebe had no design talents. Each of Phoebe’s more famous design works was just that she plagiarized from other designers. She actually said she had some achievements?
"Do you have?" Bruce was not sure about Phoebe's true level. Seeing her self-confident appearance, he believed in it. Then he stepped down and walked towards Phoebe, “Let me see."
