Chapter 419 What is stolen must be returned
Winnie’s custom-made jewelry will be produced today.
Winnie is very sad that her daughter has changed the designer.
Betty said, "That Chinese designer is too arrogant. I told her a few of your requests before you left, and only a few minor changes were needed on the design drawing.
But her assistant, Ellie, said that what was brought was the final draft, and no changes would be accepted."
Winnie said, "Talented people are inevitably a little arrogant. In fact, the last design she showed me was already perfect."
Betty said unhappily, "This Chinese designer is too arrogant and complacent. She doesn't accept the client's suggestions at all. I don't know why my brother introduced such a person to my mother."
Winnie said, "I also doubted her ability at first. When I went to school to see her work, I was not very satisfied.
But in my contact with Miss Lu, I found that she is a very gentle person and she is indeed Talent.
She took note of every request I made.
Every good designer has his or her own principles, and this may be the reason why she did not modify the design drawing. "
Betty disagreed: "If she does not follow the customer's requirements and does not get the customer's recognition, and the work cannot be produced and shown to the public, then even if she has great talent, it is worthless.
She was unwilling to modify it. She violated the agreement first and had to return the deposit. Ellie begged me not to take back the deposit and she was willing to make the design drawing for free.
We met several times and modified the design drawing as a whole. No matter what request I made, Ellie made the drawing for me to see the effect.
Now that you are back, you can communicate with her in person, and she will definitely design the jewelry that will satisfy you the most."
"I hope so."
...
Wennie passed by a jewelry store and remembered that she was missing two gemstones from her jewelry, so she went into the store to buy them.
The clerk in the jewelry store was putting a set of dazzling jewelry into the counter.
When Winnie saw the jewelry in the box for the first time, she was deeply attracted.
This set of jewelry was exactly the same as she imagined, and even more perfect than she imagined.
It was as if it was tailor-made for her, and every detail was designed with her heart in mind.
Winnie asked to buy this set of jewelry.
The clerk said that this set of jewelry was not a product in their store, but was brought by a customer for polishing.
Winnie asked, "Can you help me contact this customer? I want to buy this set of jewelry."
The clerk said, "This is jewelry specially customized by the customer for one of her elders. The materials are very expensive, so she probably won't be willing to sell it."
Winnie said, "Just introduce me to this customer, and I'll take care of the rest."
As she was speaking, the clerk pointed to two ladies coming in from outside and said, "The customers are here."
...
Lu Changxiao saw Winnie and went over to greet her politely.
Winnie pointed at the jewelry and asked her: "This is the final design drawing. No wonder you don't want to modify it. Who would be willing to change such a perfect work!"
Before Lu Changxiao could say anything, Betty said: "Mom, this is not the final manuscript I saw at all. She changed it. I guess she realized that her insistence was meaningless, so she compromised."
Lu Changxiao looked at Betty: "Compromise on what? I don't understand what you mean."
"You asked your assistant to bring the design drawing over, saying that it was the most perfect design and no changes would be accepted. Now you don't modify it anyway."
"I have been communicating with Ms. Winnie and listening to her opinions. I have never said that I would not accept any changes. It was you who did not want my design drawings. Why are you turning the tables on me?"
Winnie said, "I have never said such a thing. Before I left, I told my daughter my thoughts. As long as appropriate changes are made, it will be fine."
Neither party said they wanted to cancel the cooperation. It was the messenger who was playing tricks in the middle.
Betty realized that she was fooled and was very angry: "It was Ellie who deceived me! I'm going to find her!"
Winnie said: "Fortunately we found out in time, Miss Lu, can you sell me the jewelry you designed? I really like your work."
Lu Changxiao said: "I'm sorry, I have given this set of jewelry away.
If Ellie makes modifications based on the drawings I designed, it shouldn't be too different, and you can still get a satisfactory work."
The assistant backstabbed, and Lu Changxiao still recommended her work, which made Winnie think that Lu Changxiao was a good person.
Betty felt that her mother lost her beloved jewelry because of herself, so she sincerely apologized to Lu Changxiao and hoped to buy the jewelry at a high price.
Sister Lan saw that Winnie's eyes were always fixed on the jewelry, with a reluctant expression on her face. Looking at the clothes of the mother and daughter, they were either rich or noble.
If she wore Lu Changxiao's design to the banquet, it would definitely make Lu Changxiao famous as a designer.
So she said to Lu Changxiao: "Miss Xiaoxiao, the material of this set of jewelry is too precious. To be honest, even if you give it to me, I may not have the chance to wear it. Since this lady loves it so much, why not give it to her."
Winnie looked at Lu Changxiao expectantly.
Lu Changxiao hesitated for a moment: "How about this, you go and see Ellie's final design first. If you are satisfied with her design, you don't need to buy my work.
If you have seen her design and still think my work is more to your liking, you can come to me again."
Winnie nodded in agreement.
...
Ellie and Lisa sat happily in the cafe waiting for Winnie's arrival.
As long as Winnie likes the design, they can start making it.
Ellie had already begun to fantasize that he could make a name for himself in the jewelry design circle with this set of jewelry.
Seeing Winnie and her daughter enter the cafe, Ellie couldn't wait to take out the design drawings for them to review.
Winnie looked at the design drawings and was very disappointed: "This is very different from the design drawings I saw before I left, and it has nothing to do with the original design concept."
Ellie said: "I think Lu Changxiao's design incorporates a lot of Chinese elements, which is not suitable for you, so I changed it to Western elements, and I got your daughter's consent."
Betty saw that Ellie pushed the responsibility onto herself, and said angrily: "It was you who said that Western elements are more effective and more eye-catching than Eastern elements.
You and Miss Lu participated in the design together, and I thought you were at a similar level. Who knew you would design this crap!"
Winnie said, "I was very satisfied with Miss Lu's design before, but I just wanted to modify it a little bit. You didn't make any changes based on the previous one, but made a drastic change. This work is no longer what I wanted in the beginning."
Lisa hurried to smooth things over: "Please rest assured, we will change it as soon as we go back, and you will be satisfied." Betty
refused on behalf of her mother: "No need, my mother doesn't have time to wait! "
The client turned down the order, and she didn't even collect the deposit. Wasn't it all in vain? She even
had to pay Lisa, and in the end she lost money.
Ellie was unwilling to accept this, and asked for another chance, and she would definitely change it to Winnie's satisfaction.
Betty said, "We won't trust a person who stabs in the back and tells lies. Your character also determines the height of your design talent."
Ellie said angrily, "You can not use my design, but you can't slander my character."
Betty looked at her: "Then tell me, did Miss Lu tell you in person that she didn't want to modify the original design? Think about it before answering, we have met."
Hearing that they had met Lu Changxiao, Ellie still argued: "She regretted it after seeing that she lost the order. "
Betty stood up and looked at Ellie, and smiled contemptuously: "What is stolen must be returned."
Then she left the cafe with Winnie.
