Chapter 194 Zhang Dongmei wants to perform alone
The corners of Su Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched. She really asked the right person.
But in front of so many people, she couldn't say it directly that the person selling the mini electric sewing machine was her.
She coughed twice and said, "This thing is a little smaller than the ones used in the factory, so I guess it will be cheaper."
When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested and started discussing it.
"I don't know how much it costs, but if it does come out I'd like to buy one."
"Yes, it takes up little space, is lightweight, and is electric, so it definitely uses less electricity than a large sewing machine."
"If there really is one, I guess you have to go to a Chinese overseas store to buy it, and you need to use overseas Chinese remittance coupons."
At this time, someone said something, and when many people heard that they would use overseas remittance coupons, they immediately gave up the idea.
You can try hard to save money, but it’s not easy to get overseas remittance vouchers.
After discussing for a while, no one could come to a conclusion, so they all returned to their own counters and continued to work.
Su Xiaoxiao and others also returned to the conference room upstairs to continue discussing the program.
Zhang Yulan was very interested in Su Xiaoxiao's magic show: "Xiaoxiao, how are you going to perform this magic show?"
This question stumped Su Xiaoxiao. She just suddenly thought that this magic trick could be performed using the small space warehouse, but she didn't think about it in detail.
This is their department store's gala, so the theme must of course revolve around the department store.
In previous years, the programs simply showed the spirit of the salespeople, but it would be possible to combine the two.
Su Xiaoxiao pondered for a while and suddenly came up with a good idea.
"We could try combining a magic show with a sitcom."
Qin Shuang asked curiously, "How do we combine them? It sounds interesting."
It’s just that these two things seem to be completely unrelated, and how to combine them together is a problem.
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "I have an idea. I'll go up first and perform a magic trick, using magic to display the props for the sitcom one by one. Then two people will take the stage to act as salespeople, demonstrating our salespeople's etiquette. Finally, the remaining people will act as customers, and the scenes will recreate the salespeople's attitudes when encountering different customers."
"There are over thirty department stores in our city, large and small. Even if each department store prepares a show, there will be more than thirty of them. If we schedule the performance at the end and open it with a magic show, it will really pique the audience's curiosity."
Qian Xiaoyan immediately became interested when she heard it: "It sounds great. This is a good idea. I agree."
Zhang Yulan also nodded: "Not bad, very innovative."
Zhang Guoqing, the only male among the group, nodded in a gentlemanly manner. "I think it's fine too. By then, everyone will be performing traditional programs like poetry and skits. By the end, everyone will definitely be tired of them."
Only Zhang Dongmei snorted coldly, "That sounds nice, but I think you're just trying to show off. With your performance, you've completely taken all the limelight."
"Magic shows are so rare. When you're done, what's the point for us to perform? I think you'll steal all the limelight. There'll be no need for us to even perform."
Qin Shuang frowned. "Comrade Zhang, you can't say that. It's not like Comrade Su is the only one who will be making an appearance. If our skits are well performed, they will be equally impressive. I think Xiaoxiao's arrangement is a good one. If you have any objections, you can just perform one yourself. There's no limit to the number of performances anyway."
Zhang Dongmei glared angrily: "I'll perform on my own. When I perform well and get the appreciation of the leaders, don't be jealous."
After saying that, he picked up his bag and said, "Then you guys can practice slowly. I won't join in."
She was planning to perform on her own, so why should she just sit here and watch Su Xiaoxiao show off.
She immediately picked up her bag and prepared to go out, but as she walked she thought that if they begged her to stay, she would consider it.
She deliberately slowed down her pace as she walked out, but when she was almost at the door, no one tried to stop her.
Zhang Dongmei was even more furious. Why did everyone always side with Su Xiaoxiao no matter what she said? How was she any worse than her?
She was so angry that she kicked the door frame, but she didn't know where she kicked and hurt her foot, and a piercing pain came from the instep of her foot.
But she didn't want to be laughed at by others, so she could only endure the pain and limp out.
She gritted her teeth and thought to herself that she must prepare well and surpass them all when the time comes.
After she left, Su Xiaoxiao cleared her throat and said, "I'm just making a suggestion. If you have your own ideas, you can also express them and we can discuss them together. We are a small group, so we still need to discuss the final performance together."
Qian Xiaoyan said, "I was just playing along, but I didn't want to bother thinking about it. Comrade Su, I'm with you. I'll do whatever you ask me to do."
Zhang Yulan also echoed: "Xiaoxiao, I think your idea is very good, I will follow your lead."
Needless to say, Qin Shuang has always been a fan of Su Xiaoxiao, and she agrees wholeheartedly with whatever Su Xiaoxiao says.
The three of them looked at Zhang Guoqing, the only one who had not yet expressed his opinion.
Suddenly meeting the gazes of the three people, Zhang Guoqing nodded immediately, fearing that if he was a step late he would be excluded.
"I have no objection to what Comrade Su said."
He didn't want to participate in this show in the first place, he was just forced to do it.
Others come up with ideas and he is only responsible for execution. It feels so good.
Su Xiaoxiao said: "Since everyone has no objections, let's start rehearsing now."
Without any opposition, several people became enthusiastic and took action immediately.
Busy times always pass quickly, and it’s time to get off work in the blink of an eye.
Qin Shuang and Zhang Yulan went out with Su Xiaoxiao as usual.
The three of them walked and chatted.
Zhang Yulan said, "I wonder where I can buy that mini electric sewing machine? It would be really impressive if I had one for my home."
She has many children in her family, and in order to save money, she buys fabrics and makes her own clothes most of the time.
But I don’t have a sewing machine at home, so every time I make clothes I have to spend money to find someone else to do it.
I have saved up enough money recently and am planning to buy a sewing machine.
It would be even better if I could just buy an electric one.
Qin Shuang also said: "Indeed, this thing sounds very advanced. I wonder if it is made in our country."
Su Xiaoxiao had a good relationship with the two of them. When she heard their discussion, she touched her nose and said, "Actually, I have a friend who works in a sewing machine factory. He heard that there seems to be a mini electric sewing machine, but it has just been developed and is not yet circulated outside."
