Chapter 140: Has Your Director Returned This Time?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Autumn had already passed when White’s representative arrived in Lan City. The streets were paved with golden maple leaves, and pedestrians were wearing thick coats and walking in a hurry.
Lin Qingqian also changed from a thin windbreaker to a woolen coat. She wore black boots and met the person-in-charge at the location of White’s flagship store in the CBD—Xu Wanlan.
“Hello, Miss Xu. I’m the person-in-charge of Shi Guang Studio, Lin Qingqian. We spoke on the phone previously.” Lin Qingqian went forward and introduced herself generously, but she was actually panicking inside.
Xu Wanlan turned to look at her and smiled, “Hello, Director Lin.”
“Miss Xu, I wonder if you’ve seen the proposal I sent to your email?” Lin Qingqian didn’t beat around the bush and went straight to the point. “If not, I have the most recently modified proposal here. I hope you can take a look.”
Xu Wanlan did not accept her proposal. Her gaze landed on the shop that was being renovated and she asked softly, “CEO Lin, what style do you think White’s first store in Lan City should be renovated in?”
Lin Qingqian was stunned. She didn’t expect her to ask such a question.
“Is this a test before the cooperation?”
Xu Wanlan nodded. “Our President said that he will give priority to whoever can give him a satisfactory suggestion.”
When Lin Qingqian heard that it was Designer L’s intention, she immediately didn’t find it strange.
That genius designer would always have different thoughts from ordinary people.
Lin Qingqian walked into the shop and looked around. The entire shop was more than 200 square meters wide so it was obvious that they valued their first specialty shop in Lan City.
She stood there in silence for a moment before turning around and saying, “The renovation style doesn’t have to be European or American. The tone can be mainly Chinese and the shop can be divided into two areas.”
“One area can have the theme of green bamboo, where the clothes displayed are mainly styles that are low-key and introverted. On the other hand, the other area can have the theme of red plums where you can show off the colorful and bold clothes.”
Xu Wanlan’s almond-shaped eyes flashed with surprise.
If she hadn’t heard it with her own ears, she wouldn’t have believed that there was someone in this world who had the same thoughts as her Director. It was simply the same.
Seeing that she didn’t speak, Lin Qingqian was a little hesitant. “Is my suggestion unsuitable?”
Xu Wanlan came back to her senses and smiled faintly. “Director Lin, your idea is very unique. Why did you think of the theme of green bamboo and red plums?
“I’ve seen all of L’s design works and realized that he likes to incorporate Chinese elements like bamboo and red plums into his works.” Lin Qingqian’s eyes lit up unconsciously when she mentioned her idol. “I guess he should like Chinese style very much.”
Xu Wanlan did not deny it. That person really loved Chinese style from the bottom of his heart.
“Director Lin, your suggestion is very interesting. I will definitely tell him about it and we will also look at this proposal very carefully. As for the outcome, we still have to wait for the Director’s decision. Once decided, we will announce the outcome via the official website.”
“Alright.” Lin Qingqian knew that such a thing was not something that a secretary like her could decide on. She hesitated for a moment and could not help but ask, “May I ask if your Director has returned to the country this time?”
Xu Wanlan’s eyes flashed and she shook her head. “Our President likes peace. Even if he returns to the country, he won’t meet anyone.”
A trace of disappointment flashed across Lin Qingqian’s eyes, and the corners of her lips curled up. “Sorry for troubling you. I shall not disturb you anymore.”
Xu Wanlan nodded and watched her slender figure disappear behind the silver lift door. She turned around and got onto the escalator to the cafe on the first floor.
There was only one customer in the cafe at the moment. She walked over and handed the proposal over respectfully. “Director, this is the proposal Director
Lin handed over.”
The man put down his coffee cup and looked up with a smile. He said in a clear voice, “Alright, you’ve worked hard.”
This smile revived all things, and the withered tree returned to spring, making one’s mind sway..
