Your work always shines
Everyone says that Qin Shi is a girl with a delicate mind, she is beautiful and her paintings are also beautiful.
Only Qin Shi herself remembers that a long time ago, she still liked writing.
Since when did she no longer dare or want to pick up a pen to write down the story in her heart?
I guess it started from that writing competition in junior high school.
The theme of that essay competition was "It's Beautiful". Qin Shi spent a lot of time conceiving a splendid world of colors.
The painting is beautiful, and the painter uses a pen to outline a colorful world.
As she wrote, she imagined the sky full of clouds, the endless coastline, and the vast starry sky, and all this beauty could be presented with a brush.
After finishing writing, she put the draft in her desk drawer.
She even imagined that if this composition could get praise from the teacher, she would add what she wanted to say to each of her paintings.
After submitting the formal essay, she anxiously waited for the result.
Finally, she heard the teacher say, "Qin Shi, plagiarism is wrong."
She argued with the teacher.
Her train of thought, her ideas, her writing process, her plans, and, her dreams.
What interrupted her was the teacher's serious words: "Qin Shi, if someone submitted the same article earlier than you, no matter what your reasons are, in the eyes of the judging panel, you are plagiarizing."
Qin Shi wanted to ask the teacher who submitted her article, but the teacher just shook his head helplessly.
"A classmate from another school, he left a pen name and a PO box as his contact address."
No response.
She went home to talk to her parents, but Lao Qin, as usual, remained unreliable, his mind completely focused on the game. Her mother, Ms. Zhu, showed little interest in the student world: "If there's any controversy, just rewrite it. It's no big deal."
Her hard work was drowned in disregard.
Later, the results of the competition came out, and she saw that her composition titled "Drawing Dreams" won the second prize.
Oh, no, that article no longer belongs to her, Qin Shi.
From then on, she could only carefully put away her writing pen, and her dreams also disappeared from her writing.
She subconsciously thought that it was her fault that she was plagiarized and that she shouldn't have left the draft lying around in her desk.
The adults are right. It is because I did not look at the draft carefully that it was used by others.
Qin Shi thought about it for a long time and could only reflect that the root of everything lay with himself.
Now, as if the door of time had been opened again, she was suddenly back to the morning when the list of winners was announced.
It was her fault. Since it was her design draft, she should not have let it be stolen.
The only way to remedy the situation was for her to come up with a new design in a short period of time.
Thoughts came flooding in like a tide. This accident in junior high school was accompanied by a sense of depression. It broke through the long river of time, came to the present, and enveloped Qin Shi.
She felt powerless, as if she was falling into an icy cave.
But it seemed like something was different.
This time, there was an eager gaze beside her.
"Shishi, do you need to rest for a while?" Lu Zhiyan seemed to notice something was wrong with Qin Shi, and kept a polite social distance from her, but his words revealed a concern.
Perhaps seeing Qin Shi's concerns, Lu Zhiyan took the initiative to say, "Don't worry, calling the police will not have a negative impact on Jianyi Company. I'll take care of everything."
The tense heartstrings finally relaxed at some point. Qin Shi sat back at his desk and nodded carefully.
"Don't drink coffee today and have a good sleep. You are the biggest victim in the whole thing. You need the truth. The process of finding the truth can be left to the group legal department, and the group legal affairs can be left to me." Lu Zhiyan took a step closer and whispered to Qin Shi.
Time seemed to pass through heavy fog and returned to junior high school. If at that time, someone had said to Qin Shi seriously, "You are the biggest victim. You don't have to blame yourself or be sad." How great it would be.
Qin Shi came back to her senses and saw the concern in Lu Zhiyan's eyes. She smiled and said, "Lu Zhiyan, it's great to have you."
Perhaps because he hadn't expected Qin Shi to thank him, a hint of bitterness appeared on Lu Zhiyan's face. "This is just a matter that is a little more difficult than ordinary work. If you keep looking at me like this, I don't know what to do."
Qin Shi then realized that she was a little distracted. She came to her senses and called up the drawing software.
"Advisor Lu, you might need these materials. These are my operational records. If they're not enough, you can ask the technology department to come over and see if they can dig up some backend records."
"Okay." Lu Zhiyan said, taking pictures of Qin Shi's pages one by one.
"Shishi, I heard that the design draft was leaked. What's the situation?" Jian Qing heard the news from somewhere and came over to ask with concern.
"We are going to call the police to protect me and also to protect the copyright of the group." Qin Shi looked up and said.
Jian Qing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "During the last meeting, I roughly understood that new products would be released in the fourth quarter. Now the design drafts of the Urban Jungle series have leaked, and some clothing stores have already put the new products on the shelves, using the designs in your computer. If we use them again, the effect will be compromised."
Qin Shi touched the mouse. She had indeed made up her mind to call the police, but what would happen after that? Jianyi Company still needed to continue operating, the production line still needed to produce new products, and the design draft also needed a new set of blueprints.
"If there's still time, I can draw it well."
Assistant Lin has always been by Qin Shi's side. Apart from Qin Shi, she is the only one who knows how full Mr. Qin's schedule is as the general manager and design director.
"But Mr. Qin, you have at least three meetings every day, not including receptions and participating in activities on behalf of the group..." Assistant Lin said softly.
Jian Qing looked at Qin Shi. Qin Shi had lost weight in the past two months.
"Shishi, I have an idea. Maybe we can change the theme of the fourth quarter." Jian Qing said carefully.
Qin Shi seemed to see the former figure of her best friend in a trance.
Jian Qing was like this before, he had his own ideas for everything he did, and Qin Shi was the one who drew Jian Qing's ideas with starry eyes behind him.
Including this season's theme, urban jungle, it was also a concept proposed by Jian Qing a long time ago.
"Great, Qingqing, I'm so glad you can talk to me about your business ideas."
"During the last Ancient Style Ceremony, I told you I wanted to bring something to the exhibition. I drew a lot of pictures. Can you see if there are any that you can use? I'll put them in the fourth quarter theme first."
Qin Shi originally thought that Jian Qing was just talking before, and that she mainly wanted to go to the Ancient Style Festival to have fun and find the feeling of being home. However, she did not expect that this girl was actually concerned about participating in the exhibition.
"Of course, Mr. Jian's personal presence will perfectly reflect the characteristics of Jianyi Company. Where is your painting? Let me see it too."
Qin Shi was also very happy to think that she didn’t have to work overtime.
Lu Zhiyan, who was still busy collecting evidence, looked at Jian Qing and happily took Qin Shi to the president's office to appreciate the paintings.
Several ink and brush paintings use warm colors.
"These are all I can think of, but I'm not very good at using computers, so I can't put these paintings into the computer like you do." Jian Qing sighed.
"This can be done. Just use a scanner to input the image into the computer, and then use CorelDRAW to process and edit it, and then it can be put into production. Leave it to me." Qin Shi sighed, holding Jian Qing's painting in his hand.
"Qingqing, it's great to have you. Your pictures only need a little editing to go viral. Our fourth season theme hasn't been announced yet, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to try a traditional Chinese theme now."
Jian Qing also showed her joy. She also wanted to do her part to help Qin Shi when he was busy, but at the beginning, as soon as she spoke, many people around her looked at her as if she were a monster. In addition, Qin Shi was worried that if people found out that she had traveled from ancient times, she would most likely be captured and taken to a terrible place for research. So she dared not say a word or do anything more.
Now with Qin Shi's affirmation, she suddenly felt that she was not a waste in the group.
*
The police arrived faster than Lu Zhiyan had imagined.
If it were just an ordinary, worthless drawing, the loss would be the value of the drawing itself. But if the design for Jianyi's fourth-quarter flagship product was stolen, the impact would be far greater.
Jianyi Company is a major taxpayer in the industrial park.
"Hey, Mr. Lu, you're doing well now. Your office has been moved to the general manager's office. You really make things happen wherever you go." One of the policemen patted Lu Zhiyan on the shoulder.
Qin Shi looked closely and saw that it was another old classmate, Wu Yuewei, wearing a police uniform.
Wu Yuewei, Lu Zhiyan’s good brother, a good public servant of the people, and the finale magic weapon of the “Tongyan Wu Ji” combination.
Lu Zhiyan made a silent gesture to him in a low voice: "Shh, keep a low profile, and handle business as usual."
"Mr. Lu, don't worry. We are committed to maintaining a good business environment so that companies can participate in production and operations with peace of mind. Judging from the current evidence, the source of the design draft must be Jianyi Company. As for how it leaked out and whether there was any economic transactions in between, leave it to us to investigate." Wu Yuewei restrained his expression and spoke in a serious tone when he saw the employees of Jianyi Company gathered around him.
"Please."
"Is there any surveillance here?" Wu Yuewei looked around Qin Shi's computer desk, trying to find a breakthrough point.
"There's nothing in the office, but there's something in the corridor outside." Lu Zhiyan took Wu Yuewei with him and did not miss any clues.
"Don't worry, Consultant Lu. We will take the surveillance footage away, and we will investigate Jian Lu's side." Wu Yuewei skillfully arranged the investigation ideas. When he was far away from the crowd, he turned around and met Lu Zhiyan's seemingly innocent gaze.
"Old Lu, tell me the truth, are you acting out this heroic rescue scene?"
Lu Zhiyan shook his head: "I want to be a hero and save the beauty, there is no need to go through so much trouble."
Wu Yuewei: "That's not necessarily true. Back then..."
Lu Zhiyan stretched out his hand to stop him: "Stop, it really wasn't me."
"Then I'll go check it out without any worries."
"Officer Wu, please be at ease."
