Chapter 221
Director Chen thought of what Ye Fuyue said to the organizers on the first day of the Bamboo Fair, and immediately understood what Ye Fuyue meant.
Ye Fuyue is more forward-looking. She gave the organizers a heads-up so early.
Director Chen nodded. "Okay. Director Cai, you and Ye Fuyue go together."
Director Chen was afraid that Ye Fuyue would suffer a loss if she went to the First Furniture Factory alone.
So, Director Chen went to find the organizer, and Director Cai accompanied Ye Fuyue to the First Furniture Factory.
Before they reached the exhibition area of the first furniture factory, they ran into Huang Xiu who was running back.
Huang Xiu saw Director Cai and gasped, "Director Cai, the First Furniture Factory copied our design! The design they showed foreigners is almost identical to ours!"
When Huang Xiu saw the design draft, he was completely shocked.
I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless. We were all in the same exhibition hall, yet they blatantly copied their factory's design. Even bandits wouldn't dare to be so brazen!
Director Cai's expression grew even more gloomy, and he said to Huang Xiu, "Come with us to the First Furniture Factory."
As soon as Ye Fuyue and her friends arrived at the exhibition area of the First Furniture Factory, they were stopped by the sharp-eyed Director Zheng.
"Aren't these people from Xiangyang Furniture Factory?" Director Zheng said with a half-smile, "Why are you here in our booth instead of staying in your own?"
"Director Zheng, you're asking this even though you already know the answer." Ye Fuyue replied in the same tone, "You initially devalued my design, and now you're copying it. How shameless of you all to do such a thing?"
Director Zheng had already guessed why Ye Fuyue and the others came here.
He didn't get angry, and instead said pretentiously, "We're all in the same industry, so what's wrong with learning from each other? Hasn't your Xiangyang Furniture Factory copied the furniture of our First Furniture Factory before? You're only allowed to copy ours, but we're not allowed to learn from yours?"
"In China, it's okay for everyone to copy each other. But this is furniture that will be sold abroad, how can we do this?" Director Cai said with a stern face.
Director Zheng scoffed, "Why can't we do this? Is there still a distinction between selling domestically and selling abroad? This kind of thinking is unacceptable. You must be arrested and rehabilitated!"
Director Cai was angered by what Director Zheng said.
"I think you are the one who should be arrested and reformed the most. You have brought shame to the Chinese people." Ye Fuyue said.
Director Zheng's face was full of disdain.
It was at this time that Director Chen came with the organizers.
As soon as the organizer came over, he went straight to Director Li.
Director Li was discussing prices with a foreigner who was interested in placing an order, looking very happy.
Seeing the organizer coming over with an unhappy look on his face, Director Li was still confused.
The organizer whispered to Director Li, "Wait a moment."
Then he signaled with his eyes to the translator who came with him, asking the translator to coax the foreigner first.
The organizer personally went to see the design drafts that the First Furniture Factory was showing to foreigners. Seeing that the designs were almost identical to those of Xiangyang Furniture Factory, the organizer felt that his face had been stepped on.
"Foreign friends, if you are interested in the furniture here, please follow my people to another exhibition area. The furniture in the other exhibition area is better than here." said the organizer.
When the translator was translating this passage to all the foreigners present, Director Li could no longer sit still.
He was about to speak when the organizer glared at him and said in a low voice, "I don't care what you do in China, but this is a trade fair for foreigners. You don't have any real skills, so all you can do is copy Xiangyang Furniture Factory? And you even blatantly copied it at the Bamboo Fair? Are you trying to tell foreigners that there's no good furniture in China and that we're just copying?"
After the organizer finished speaking, his expression immediately changed, and he gestured to the foreigners present to follow his people to the exhibition area of Xiangyang Furniture Factory.
Director Cai also said to Huang Xiu at this time: "Come back to our exhibition area with us and entertain these foreigners well."
"Okay!" Huang Xiu responded proudly.
After all the foreigners left, the organizer frowned again and glared at Director Li.
"It's fine if you're shameless, but don't throw my face and the face of our city on the ground in front of foreigners! Have you forgotten what one of the rules for all factories participating in the Bamboo Fair is? One of the rules is that you must bring out unique products from your factory! Your First Furniture Factory is the largest furniture factory in our city, and you don't even have your own products? Are you just copying Xiangyang Furniture Factory?"
Director Zheng was a little unconvinced and wanted to show off in front of Director Li.
He said, "Xiangyang Furniture Factory has also copied our furniture before."
The organizer glanced at him sharply. "You can't tell the difference between what was going on before and what is going on now. Do you need me to teach you? If you don't even have this common sense, how did you end up sitting in this position?"
Director Zheng's face immediately turned all colourful, and he was so embarrassed that he couldn't even lift his head.
"There's only half a day left in the Bamboo Fair, so stop causing trouble! If you continue like this, your First Furniture Factory will never be able to enjoy any welfare policies from the city!" The organizer said this and left angrily.
Ye Fuyue watched the fun and admired the expressions of Director Zheng and Director Li.
"Since you can't win fair competition, you resort to such shameful means. Your No. 1 Furniture Factory really deserves its reputation!" She sighed in a sly manner and returned to the exhibition area of Xiangyang Furniture Factory with Director Cai.
Seeing so many foreigners in the exhibition area and Director Chen and everyone else busy, Ye Fuyue felt relieved.
This is what their exhibition area should look like.
When Director Chen saw Ye Fuyue, he smiled happily: "Come quickly, we are almost overwhelmed."
Ye Fuyue walked over with a smile.
I was so busy that I stayed busy until the end of the Bamboo Fair.
Director Chen and his team had to stay behind to clean up the exhibition area and transport the furniture back to the factory. Ye Fuyue wasn't a formal employee of Xiangyang Furniture Factory, so she didn't have to worry about these things and could go back directly.
"Ye Fuyue, come to the factory to see me and Director Cai the day after tomorrow, and I will settle your wages. It's really thanks to you for these three days." Director Chen expressed his sincere gratitude.
"Okay." Ye Fuyue agreed happily.
She felt that given Director Chen's character, her compensation would undoubtedly be substantial. Furthermore, she had indeed made significant contributions over the past three days. She was already beginning to anticipate how much Director Chen would pay her.
Ye Fuyue hummed a little tune and walked out of the foreign-related hotel, when she saw a familiar figure.
