Wang Chunyan sniffed and shook her head vigorously:
“No! I’m living and eating at the military base now. She’s come to cause trouble a few times, but she can’t even get through the gate. She can only throw a tantrum at the entrance.”
As she spoke, she looked at Lei Yuhua with gratitude.
"When Sister Yuhua found out, she took several male soldiers to the gate to warn her, and also went to her workplace and my father's workplace leaders... The leaders put pressure on her, saying that if she continued to cause trouble, she would lose her job! She finally realized she was scared and dared not hit or scold me anymore, and said... just pretend I'm not her daughter anymore."
"This is a good thing!"
Zhou Qiqi was genuinely happy for her, "From now on, you can take charge of your own life!"
Seeing that her eyes were still red, he patted her hand again, "Silly girl, cheer up, why are you crying?"
"I...I'm so happy to see you again!"
Wang Chunyan wiped her eyes, then smiled through her tears.
"Sister Qiqi, you saved me and gave me a new path. I've always wanted to repay you, but I felt like I couldn't help you in any way, and I didn't dare to bother you... I never thought I'd finally run into you today! Let me be your model! I promise I'll do my best! I really don't want any money or new clothes! I just want to be of help!"
She explained hastily,
"I arrived a while ago, but I was worried you hadn't come yet... so I went to wash my face and redo my hair. I didn't expect to come back and be at the very back of the line! I was so anxious, afraid you'd already chosen enough people..."
Lei Yuhua stood aside, listening to the whole story, and understood about 70-80% of it.
So that's how it all started. No wonder Chunyan was so anxious.
Her expression softened, and she said to Zhou Qiqi:
"Qiqi, Chunyan has been in the troupe for a few months now. She's really hardworking and has made rapid progress. Why don't you give her a chance and let her give it a try?"
Seeing Zhou Qiqi nod, she quickly turned to Wang Chunyan and said, "What are you standing there for? Go take a walk and show your sister Qiqi!"
Wang Chunyan nodded vigorously, as if she had received a royal decree, took a deep breath, and quickly walked onto the stage.
She tried to calm herself, straighten her back, and take a step.
Although my palms were sweating with nervousness, my earnestness and energy were genuine.
Zhou Qiqi became more and more satisfied with what she saw.
In this "Ink Splendor" series, the pale yellow design, with its lively and vibrant color scheme, is specially prepared for young women.
Wang Chunyan's age, her vibrant vitality, and her unique resilience that comes with hardship make her seem like she was made for that outfit!
"Okay! You're the one!"
Zhou Qiqi made the final decision, pointing at Wang Chunyan and laughing, "That new pale yellow dress is yours!"
Wang Chunyan stood on the stage, her eyes suddenly shining brightly. She nodded excitedly and almost cried again.
With that, only one person was left to be selected. The competition was fierce, but the decision was made quickly.
After making the selections, Lei Yuhua told the girls to practice walking on their own before approaching Zhou Qiqi to ask about the important matter:
"Qiqi, how exactly are you going to organize this new product launch? Have you finalized the rules and procedures? Where is the venue? Is everything set up? What are some things to keep in mind? I'll let the girls know in advance."
Zhou Qiqi rubbed her temples, revealing a hint of fatigue, and replied,
"The venue is set in the auditorium of the First Garment Factory. As for the rest, I'm busy with the pattern making of the new styles and the matching of accessories, so I haven't had time to deal with it yet. I'll wait until I get back tonight, or I'll stay up all night if necessary, and finalize it as soon as possible. As for the venue setup, I really don't have the extra experience, so I'm going to leave it to the factory office for now, and I'll find some time later to oversee and make some changes."
As if he had anticipated her answer, Lei Yuhua's eyes lit up, he patted his chest, and laughed.
"Or, just leave it to me! I have a lot of stage experience, and I'm quite skilled at setting up the venue. Just tell me what effects you need and what you need, and I'll take care of it. You can just give me an expense report later. As for the fee..."
She winked mischievously, then touched Zhou Qiqi's "Radiant" coat with a hint of longing, and continued,
"I'll make sure this event looks beautiful for you. After the press conference, give me one of each of your two pale yellow coats. That way I'll feel more at ease with them. How about that?"
Zhou Qiqi remembered that Zhuo's mother had indeed mentioned that Lei Yuhua was very capable at work, especially skilled in stage design, and always won first place in the city's annual performances.
Looking at her usual clothes and style, she is quite fashionable and has good taste.
After a moment's thought, Zhou Qiqi nodded decisively: "Okay! Then I'll trouble you!"
With the situation extremely urgent, Lei Yuhua's willingness to take on this task, regardless of her motives, is a timely and helpful assistance.
The two immediately went to Lei Yuhua's office and huddled together to discuss the details in private for quite a while.
Lei Yuhua became more and more excited as she listened, patting her chest and guaranteeing...
"Don't worry, Qiqi! I don't have any performances these days anyway. I'll take Chunyan over after work this afternoon and get to work! I guarantee I'll have a venue you'll be satisfied with in three days!"
"Okay! I'll leave everything to you!"
The tension in Zhou Qiqi's heart finally eased a little.
For the next three days, the First Garment Factory operated like a fully wound-up machine, running at high speed in three separate directions.
The first group consisted of Zhou Qiqi and the experienced workers on the production line who practically stayed in the workshop.
The sewing machines hummed day and night, and the new "Ink and Wash Splendor" sample garments gradually took shape under their bloodshot eyes.
The dyeing effect of each piece of fabric had to be compared repeatedly to strive for perfection. With tight deadlines and heavy workloads, no one dared to relax.
The second group consisted of girls from the military region's cultural troupe, including Lei Yuhua and Wang Chunyan, who also became frequent visitors to the First Garment Factory.
