Some things still need to be kept confidential
The leak of the design draft cast a shadow of unease over the entire group.
"Boss Qin, although there are some things I shouldn't consider, the fourth quarter is coming soon. The workers on the production line are very uneasy after hearing the news about the design draft. Many of them are asking me for a raise." Zhang Haoran, deputy director of the production line, rubbed his hands and expressed his concern to Qin Shi.
"You don't have to worry. Even if the company really reaches the point where it can't produce, all employees' salaries and bonuses will remain unchanged." Qin Shi keenly grasped Zhang Haoran's request, allowing Zhang Haoran to rest assured and stabilize the production line.
"In addition, our fourth quarter theme will feature new elements, and the design department will hold a meeting to discuss them later."
Qin Shi said this to reassure Zhang Haoran.
But Haohao had been on edge ever since the production line malfunction. Just like now, he nodded at the first half of the sentence, then looked up in confusion after hearing the second half. Zhang Haoran had always held the title of Deputy Director of Production, often representing the department at management meetings. He clearly remembered that discussing the quarterly element theme was something that management meetings were supposed to discuss, but now President Qin was saying it was the Design Department's responsibility.
"Then does the management still need to hold a meeting to discuss it?" Zhang Haoran was unsure. What if President Qin was wrong and he disappeared when the management held the meeting? His image would fall into the quagmire again.
Haohaoge was waiting for Qin Shi's answer, but Qin Shi didn't say a word and gave him a murderous look.
That look seemed to be saying, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't say what you shouldn't say.
Zhang Haoran felt an inexplicable sense of tension in his heart.
President Qin has always been gentle, but the sudden sharpness reminded him of the former President Jian.
But he quickly realized that his request had been resolved and that he no longer needed to worry about other things, so he politely slipped away from President Qin's office.

The theme discussion of the new fourth season design draft will be carried out in a small circle within the design department.
Jian Qing's ink painting starts with vermilion as the base, and the outline of the phoenix is composed of elements such as sunset, maple leaves, and red plum blossoms filled with micro-patterns. It seems that the quiet winter is broken by the scorching heat. Under the rendering of ink, the footnotes of ancient charm are brought to life.
Jian Qing and Qin Shi jointly agreed to change the theme of the fourth issue from "Urban Jungle" to "Nirvana".
There are five people in the design department. Some are good at hand-drawing, and some are good at Photoshop. They work on the details around the group's main design drawing.
"Mr. Qin, you have formed a new idea in such a short time. It's amazing." When Qin Shi finished showing the first draft, everyone exclaimed in amazement.
"This is President Jian's idea," Qin Shi said generously. "As everyone knows, President Jian recently had the idea of having the group participate in the Ancient Style Ceremony. The original drafts of these designs are ink paintings drawn by President Jian himself."
"Mr. Jian knows ink painting!" Someone in the design department exclaimed, covering his mouth.
In the eyes of employees, Jian Qing is an out-and-out female CEO, and has nothing to do with Chinese painting.
Even though Mr. Jian has been obsessed with everything Chinese-style recently, no one could have imagined that he would fully master the techniques of ink painting within a few months.
And the painting is so good.
In response to everyone's amazement, Qin Shi easily explained that Jian Qing had signed up for a training course in ink painting when he was a child.
In an instant, Jian Qing became a mysterious, intelligent, quiet, cold and changeable female president in everyone's eyes.
"You may have heard that our previous Urban Jungle series was cut short. From now on, our design drawings will be discussed in a small circle in the design department. After the discussion, the design department can make additional details without the need for discussion and approval from management." As the meeting was coming to an end, Qin Shi turned off the monitor and said to his colleagues in the design department.
"So, everyone, please keep it confidential."
The last sentence seemed to be spoken in a leisurely manner, but the designers attending the conference could tell that it carried great weight.
After the meeting, Qin Shi and Jian Qing walked out of the meeting room first, and the employees of the design department began to discuss in a low voice.
A: "What's going on? Our design department has been upgraded, and now we don't even need management approval to produce a design draft?"
B: "Didn't President Qin say that? It's because of the Urban Jungle series leak."
Person A: "Leaked? Who leaked it? I wasted days of work. Did they find the person?"
B: "The police were here a few days ago. They took photos, checked CCTV, and interviewed people."
Person A: "Oh, that's why the police came that day. I thought it was Mr. Qin who called the police to kick Consultant Lu out of his office."
B: "Sister, the gossip you're eating is a bit rotten. Consultant Lu is doing well now. He has been sitting in the VIP seat in the design director's office."
A: "That's amazing! It seems President Qin trusts Consultant Lu very much."
B: "We can only scratch the surface of what's going on with management. Just keep working hard. If this design is leaked again, everyone here will be blamed."
Thinking of this, everyone in the design department changed the passwords on their computers to very complex ones.
It is better to be safe than sorry. No one wants to get into a lawsuit for no reason.

In the design director's office, when Qin Shi stepped into the office, she heard Lu Zhiyan say, "Comrade Wu, I'm grateful for your kindness." Then she saw Lu Zhiyan move his phone away and put it on the desk.
"Is there any news about Officer Wu?" Qin Shi's first reaction was Wu Yuewei.
"The police solved the case in 36 hours." Lu Zhiyan smiled unconcealedly.
"The police went to Jianlv Company to investigate. Their legal representative is an unknown old lady. According to the old lady, someone gave her 20,000 yuan to become a boss, and she agreed. They really couldn't find out anything from the legal representative, but by tracing the sources of various investment funds of Jianlv Company, the police found that the legal representative of Jianlv Company also had the surname Jian." Lu Zhiyan revealed.
"Is it the Jian family? Qingqing had severed ties with the Jian family long ago in order to be with Chen Cheng. Why would the Jian family treat Jian Yi like this?" Qin Shi shook her head. She couldn't imagine why the Jian family's Jian Group, with a market value of billions, would kill Jian Qing's Jian Yi company worth tens of millions.
"I think Ms. Jian hasn't called home in a long time, right? If she had called, she would have found out that Jian Qing's parents brought one of Jian Qing's cousins with them to raise. If she had paid attention to the development of the Jian family, she would have found out that the Jian family, which has always focused on the heavy industry sector, has now begun to enter the light industry market."
"Jian Qing's cousin?"
"Yeah, think about it, Mr. and Mrs. Jian are really pitiful. They only have one daughter, Jian Qing, who is also a love-brained person. So they treat their nephew as their own son and train him as an heir."
"Putting aside the relationship between Qingqing and the Jian family, how did the design drawings in my computer get leaked?" Qin Shi still couldn't understand.
"Your supplier may also be Jian Lu's supplier. Jian Lu has the support of the Jian family and is very wealthy, so he can get better things from his suppliers." Lu Zhiyan's words were suggestive.
"Supplier?" Qin Shi kept thinking about the suppliers he had contacted recently. There were not many suppliers who could see his design drafts.
There is such a one.
"Boss Li?"
Lu Zhiyan nodded.
"Boss Li is a veteran in the business world and has a photographic memory. The Jian family sent him to gather information, and he revealed your drawing when he returned. Of course, he's not a professional artist, so he dictated it based on his memory, and Jian Lu hired someone else to recreate it. Boss Li confessed to all of this."
"No, how could he do this!" Qin Shi sighed and wanted to curse. She treated Boss Li as a friend and showed her paintings to him, but she didn't expect that Boss Li turned around and told these things to others.
She thought of Lu Zhiyan's reminder that day and felt very sorry.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Don't be angry at others for acting. The police investigation was swift and thorough, and that's good news."
Lu Zhiyan rubbed his hands together, as if counting money, to pull Qin Shi out of her regret.
"Jian Lu is not innocent and needs to compensate us for all our losses. Boss Li is smart but has no sense of contract. Let's leave such a partner to Jian Lu. We can't afford it." Qin Shi thought as he prepared to call the finance department to ask them to estimate the specific losses.
Before the call even went through, Lu Zhiyan volunteered: "How can we claim compensation without the involvement of the legal department? Believe me, I will definitely give you a satisfactory income."
