Chapter 357 "Excuse me, are you willing to cooperate with me?"
Liao Yongqiang suddenly smiled bitterly.
"I guess I will never go back there in this lifetime! That place is my sad place!"
Song Shiwei heard this and frowned slightly.
"Sad place? Aren't you from Hong Kong? That's supposed to be your hometown!"
Erya seemed to have thought of something. She quickly stepped forward and grabbed Song Shiwei's arm.
His eyes were fixed on Liao Yongqiang, wondering if the rumors were true?
He is a gangster from Hong Kong. He came here because he got into trouble. He must not have any evil intentions towards Sister Weiwei.
It was she who brought Sister Weiwei out, and she must bring Sister Weiwei back safely!
Liao Yongqiang found it a little funny when he saw Erya's wary look.
He smiled and waved his hands.
"Little girl, you don't have to look at me like that. I know what people are saying about me, but I'm not a bad person. It's true that I'm from Hong Kong, but I'm not a gangster. I'm a fashion designer who studied in the United States!"
"After returning to Hong Kong, I joined a top fashion design company as a designer. However, one of my designs won a gold award in the international fashion industry, but the company used my work in my name. I was so angry that I resigned in a rage. However, the company immediately banned me in the industry, saying that I was a shameless person who was greedy for fame and fortune and would do anything for fame and fortune!"
As he said this, he suddenly covered his eyes with his hands.
He hesitated for a long time before speaking.
"My mother became ill because of this and passed away not long after. This is the most painful thing in my life!"
"My mother is from Eastern Province, so I brought her ashes here and buried her in the land of her hometown. Don't you mainlanders have an old saying? Fallen leaves return to their roots! Back then, my mother suffered a lot with my father. After my father became rich, he abandoned her, married another woman, and had children. My mother raised me all by herself with great difficulty, but I failed to repay her kindness and even hurt her..."
Song Shiwei and Erya both felt uncomfortable.
Especially Arya, who only now realized that everyone had misunderstood him!
"Well, don't be sad... well... I'm sorry, I misunderstood you..."
Erya is not very good at speaking and her face turned red due to anxiety.
However, Liao Yongqiang quickly sorted out his emotions.
He waved his hands.
"It's okay, it's okay! I just got emotional and couldn't help it!"
When Song Shiwei heard that he was a fashion designer, her eyes lit up. After hearing about his experience, her thoughts became clearer.
Before coming to Eastern Province, after working with Song Yingying in the clothing business, she had always wanted to open her own clothing factory, hire professional designers, design and produce her own products, and then open her own brand chain stores across the country.
At first, she could only think about this idea, because good designers are hard to come by.
But today, when she saw the room full of clothes designed by Liao Yongqiang, the seed of wanting to start a clothing business in her heart finally sprouted.
The clothes designed by Liao Yongqiang are really beautiful, he has that talent!
Otherwise, his design works would not have been snatched away by the company and won the international design gold award!
What does this mean? It means he is a very capable designer!
It's just that his talent is not appreciated and there is no good platform for him to realize his self-worth!
In fact, Song Shiwei didn't believe it. He didn't feel aggrieved at all. A designer who should have been internationally famous now had to make a living by running a small clothing store that couldn't sell a single piece in half a day.
The key point is that this small clothing store is not making enough money, and no one is interested in the clothes he designs.
Which designer would feel good about this?
For designers, every piece of clothing they design is the result of endless effort and in their hearts they are like their own children.
In the end, he was not recognized by others. You can imagine how sad and unwilling he would be.
So, Song Shiwei suddenly asked: "Well, do you think your mother really wants to see you like this now?"
Liao Yongqiang was stunned.
Not only was he stunned, Erya, Li Wei and Zhao Liang were also a little confused. What did she mean by saying this?
Song Shiwei explained, "Why did your mother get sick with anger? Because she felt that her son was truly talented and capable. She felt sorry for her son, wronged, and resentful! She raised you with great difficulty and sent you to school, not to let you live a lazy life in such a small town. She also wanted to see her son travel freely in the world! In her heart, you should be the bright moon in the sky, not a handful of yellow earth on the ground."
"Don't you want her to see that all her training of you is worth it, and that you will become the most dazzling pearl in the world, shining brightly in the field you love?"
Her words made Liao Yongqiang's blood boil.
She looked at Song Shiwei with slightly red eyes, and her hands were tightly clenched on the corners of her clothes.
How could he be willing, how could he not be sad? ?
But he didn't know how to start over. In Hong Kong, his reputation was like a stone in a toilet, and in mainland China, no one appreciated his designs.
He didn't know where his life was going. He was already 39 years old this year and most of his life was almost over.
Sometimes, he also thought, why not just waste his life like this, everyone will die anyway, and anyway, the extra money in his hand is enough for him to live for a while if he lives frugally, so just live like this, muddling through!
He himself had long since recognized that he was a loser.
But he didn't expect to meet Song Shiwei today, and her words seemed to hit him hard!
Yes, is he willing? He is not willing!
His mother would not want her son to live his life like this.
He also wanted to prove to his mother that her son was not a coward and that he was someone she could be proud of.
He shook his head vigorously.
"But, but I don't know what to do besides this clothing store......"
Song Shiwei saw the confusion and fear in his heart, and suddenly smiled.
She is already beautiful, and now wearing such a bright red dress, she is like a hundred flowers in spring, blooming in everyone's heart.
"Excuse me, are you willing to cooperate with me?"
Liao Yongqiang was stunned.
"Cooperate with you?"
Song Shi smiled and said, "Yes, I just want to open a clothing factory, and I'm still in need of a very good designer! I wonder if you are willing to be our chief designer! You will design the clothes for each season. My idea is that we will create our own clothing brand and open our own clothing chain stores all over the country! Participate in international fashion shows, and maybe I can let you return to the peak of design in the future!"
