Chapter 54 The Design Drawings Are Lost
"As long as the clothes are designed by me, they must have my trademark. As for other clothes, I don't care."
Xia Keqing smiled and said, "So it shouldn't be considered my exclusive processing factory."
"I don't think Director Zhang's factory will only produce clothes designed by me."
This is also a test.
However, Zhang Xia has a car, and Xia Keqing guessed that her factory should not be very small.
Unless Zhang Xia is someone who is content with a small fortune.
There was a small factory that made a little money and couldn't wait to buy a car.
But Xia Keqing still believed in her own judgment.
This Zhang Xia looks quite calm and steady, not like that kind of person.
So she guessed that her factory might be of a good scale, and the reason why she was in a hurry to buy the design drawings might be because the factory's efficiency had been declining year by year and it was looking for a new way out.
This coincides with her idea.
If you can cooperate with her, you can say that we both get what we want.
"I don't care who you sell your clothes to."
"Of course, I will have some demand for the clothes I designed myself, and this should not be a conflict for you."
Zhang Xia thought so too.
It is impossible for such a large factory to produce only one or a few types of clothing.
It’s just adding the other party’s trademark, which is really nothing.
Xia Keqing’s guess was not wrong.
Zhang Xia’s clothing factory is quite large and could compete with “Xuefei” in the early years.
But Xuefei kept innovating. Her factory, under her father's leadership, had always been stubbornly conservative, and its performance had been declining year by year.
Moreover, more and more people are entering the clothing industry to share this "cake", and it is becoming increasingly difficult to make money.
Even Xuefei is the same, otherwise they would not have gone to so much trouble to hold such a designer competition and invited people from newspapers and TV stations.
How much more will this cost?
But the effect is also gratifying.
At least, in Zhang Xia's opinion, Xia Keqing is the hidden pearl.
She was eager to buy her work to prevent her from being discovered by others.
Compared with closing down the business, what does it matter if the clothes you produce are embroidered with someone else's trademark? At least they haven't asked her for trademark royalties yet!
There is still some humor in Zhang Xia's personality.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say!"
The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.
After dinner, Zhang Xia hurried to Xuefei to get Xia Keqing's design drawing, but when she arrived at Xuefei, she found that the design drawing was missing.
Zhang Xia immediately became anxious.
"The designs were all on this notice board. How come they disappeared?"
Xuefei's people didn't want to take responsibility either. "We held the designer competition to select the winners. The works were also made public to ensure fairness and justice as much as possible, but we are not responsible for keeping these works. Maybe someone took them away when no one was paying attention."
As he said this, he pushed the responsibility onto Xia Keqing, "You are the designer of that work, right? Since you wanted to sell the design, why didn't you keep it safe?"
"We are just making it public, but there is no rule that designers cannot take their works away."
Yu Hong got angry when she heard their tone of shirking responsibility, "What do you mean by that?"
"If my niece hadn't believed in Xuefei, she wouldn't have left such a precious work in the factory. Now that the work is lost, how can you put the blame on her?"
"Do you think she's easy to bully because she's young?"
When Xuefei's people saw Yu Hong standing up for Xia Keqing and saw that she was a bit old and didn't look like someone who was going to be tough to mess with, their attitude softened a lot.
"Hey, don't be anxious, don't be anxious!"
"Look for it again, maybe it dropped somewhere accidentally."
Xuefei's people searched around but couldn't find it, but they noticed that there were a lot fewer works on the notice board. He suddenly thought of something, "Little girl, could it be that you took the design drawings yourself and wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail us, Xuefei?"
Yu Hong's eyes widened, "What are you talking about?"
Snowfly's people: ...
"I just have reasonable suspicions. Look for yourself. Several of these works are missing. Who would care about these things except you designers? Maybe your niece took them away herself."
Although this is a shameless statement, it is also true.
For a designer, every design drawing is like his or her own child.
The more Xuefei's people thought about it, the more they felt that it was Xia Keqing who took the design drawings away herself.
"Didn't your niece want to sell the picture for money? She must have taken it herself, otherwise why don't you look for it somewhere else?"
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Xia and said, "Who knows about the young people nowadays? Maybe you can make a lot of money with just one picture."
Xia Keqing immediately understood the hidden meaning of her words. This time, before Hong spoke, she said seriously, "Comrade, you need to provide evidence when you speak."
"You said I took my drawings and sold them to several people. Do you have any evidence?"
A middle-aged woman working for Xuefei got anxious when she heard this. "How would I know where you put your design drawings?"
Xia Keqing laughed when she heard this. "Since I didn't know, why did you accuse me of selling a blueprint to several people?"
The middle-aged woman was stunned. She was a little angry and embarrassed. "You lost the blueprints yourself. I still say that Xuefei has no responsibility to keep the blueprints for you. Since the things are gone, you must have taken them away and sold them. Now that the truth has been revealed, you want to push the responsibility to us, Xuefei."
Xia Keqing had never seen such a shameless person in her entire life.
Xuefei is such a big garment factory, but there are many strange things there.
"Okay, so what you mean is that I took my own blueprints and sold them to several people, and then slandered you, Xuefei, right? If you don't have evidence, I can sue you for defamation!"
The woman was so anxious that she was jumping up and down, but she was still timid. "Go ahead and sue me if you have the guts. I didn't take your drawings. I'm not afraid of you!"
"If you don't sue me, you're a coward!"
Xia Keqing: ...
"Okay, I'll call the police now."
When they heard that Xia Keqing was going to call the police, the other staff members of Xuefei became anxious.
Xuefei opened a business and could not afford to be visited by the police because of an employee. If any rumors spread from competitors, it would seriously affect Xuefei's overall image.
The reputation of Xuefei Garment Factory has been damaged and there is no business. What will happen to their jobs?
"No, no! Don't call the police, little girl. Leave some space for us so we can meet again in the future. Why do you have to do it so drastically?"
Xia Keqing sneered, "I didn't want to do anything extreme, she forced me to do it."
"My design drawing was lost. This drawing was originally on the public notice board. If it was really lost, there was nothing I could do. Besides, I can draw it once and I can draw it again. But she pushed the responsibility onto me and slandered me and defamed my character. How can I accept this?"
The other people in Xuefei looked embarrassed.
In fact, they all saw the conflict between Sister Chen and others just now.
But who made Sister Chen the factory director’s relative?
She has a very unforgiving mouth.
I originally thought that the little girl was easy to bully, and that the factory wouldn't have to take any responsibility just because Sister Chen said a few words to her. Who knew that the little girl was so powerful.
Now that this is related to their own interests, everyone came to plead for mercy.
When Yu Hong and Zhang Xia heard Xia Keqing say that it was okay that the drawings were lost and she could still draw them, they were instantly relieved and no longer interfered in the matter.
Sister Chen was also forced to make a formal apology to Xia Keqing.
…
At this moment, in a hotel, a man stretched out his long legs, leaned slightly against the head of the bed, and held a drawing in his hand. It was the design draft that Xia Keqing had lost.
The man stared at the design for a long time but couldn't figure out what it meant.
I just think the painting is beautiful.
Go back and give her some more money. It is said that painting is very expensive.
