Chapter 295: Cause and Effect
"I noticed that you've been looking at these pieces of paper since you got in the car, could it be your new work?" asked the middle-aged man after the car drove for a while.
"It's not. I'm so old that I don't have the energy anymore. ”
"And what is this?"
"A young man left behind, I still have a feeling when I look at his designs. ”
"It does seem good, it's rare for you to have such an evaluation. ”
"Moreover, he has some similarities to yours......"
"Oh? Then I'll have to take a look. ”
The middle-aged man took the sketch from the old man's hand with one hand and looked at it. I have to admit that the design is indeed very similar to him, and it is all minimalist style. Although it was a sketch, he could see that the other party was very attentive, and his basic skills and design skills were good.
"Talented, you say he's a young man?"
"What's the matter?" asked the old man with a smile.
"It's a little bit like that, he's so much in my style. ”
"Isn't it a newcomer to Dior?"
"I haven't heard of such newcomers recently, the key is that according to this level, it should not be unknown. ”
"Then wait for him to contact him, and everything will be clear by then. ”
"Well, that's all there is to it. ”
……
At this point, the conversation ended, and there was a brief silence in the car. ”
"Are you really going to leave?" asked the old man.
"Hmm. ”
"Alas~"
"Dior is back on track with her, it's time for me to leave. ”
"The people in management are still the same. ”
"Don't talk about it, it's just one aspect, in fact, I already have plans to leave. ”
"I know I can't persuade you, so I won't say anything. By the way, how is your own branding going?"
"There are a lot of regular customers, and it's okay. ”
"That's good. ”
……
The vehicle continued to move forward, and suddenly, the old man sitting in the passenger seat laughed.
"What are you doing here?" the middle-aged man asked, startled.
"I remembered a little bastard!" the old man kept looking at the sketch in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became. Suddenly, he thought of something, so he quickly took out his wallet. In the old man's purse, there is half a crumpled piece of paper, and a skirt is drawn on the top of the paper, and the design style has many similarities with the drawing.
At this moment, the old man finally understood who the young man he had met before, and why the young man had such a surprised expression when he saw him, the other party had obviously recognized him, and scolded him once.
"Huh?" the middle-aged man couldn't quite understand.
"Do you remember what I asked you about some time ago?"
"You mean?" asked the middle-aged man, looking at the drawing.
"yes, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. ”
……
Speaking of which, it goes back a few months. At that time, the old man was at New York's fashion week, and by chance he saw Liu Shixin painting, he felt very curious, there were many people watching the show during the fashion week, but he really hadn't seen a few people painting, so he took a closer look. However, the impression left on him by Liu Shixin at that time was not good, and the feeling that the other party gave him was more ignorance and pride, so he tore Liu Shixin's drawing paper. It's not uncommon for people who engage in art to have eccentric personalities.
He turned to leave, about to throw the paper in the trash, but happened to run into an acquaintance, and during the chat, he put the paper in his pocket, and only found out when he rested at night. Re-unfolding the paper, the blueprints on it gave him a different feeling that he hadn't had in years, so he studied it carefully. The details of the design drawings are in place, and the old people feel the outstanding places.
I almost missed a piece of jade, this was the old man's heart at that time. But the two didn't talk much, so he didn't know who the author was, but he saw the logo of the Roots brand from the drawing paper. The old man didn't go directly to the Roots company, after all, with his identity, it was impossible and unnecessary to deign to find a hairy boy.
However, now that you know that the other party is a designer of Roots, it is much easier. So, the old man persuaded the middle-aged man to hold such an exchange meeting between Dior and Roots.
……
"There will definitely be competition within the company in this kind of exchange meeting, how do you know that he will definitely come?"
"If he can't even pass this level, it means that he has no potential to tap. ”
"How many years have you been using this?" said the middle-aged man with a smirk.
"No matter how old you are, it just works. Isn't that how you kid came over?"
"I'm old, not as young as I am now. ”
"Are you sarcastic about me, an old immortal?"
"You said it yourself, I didn't say it. ”
"Hahaha......" "Hahahaha......"
……
When Liu Shixin was in a meeting, there was no way to concentrate at all, and the lost sketch was his painstaking effort, even he, the original author, might not be able to paint an identical painting. Fortunately, the sketch was picked up by others, although he didn't want to see each other, Liu Shixin still hoped that the meeting would end early.
In fact, the content of the meeting was very unnutritious, nothing more than some words of exhortation. After all, the gap between Roots and Dior is too big, and many Roots designers have been hit.
After the meeting, Liu Shixin and Tina hurriedly said hello and left.
"What's wrong with him, so anxious?" asked Erik.
"Who knows?" said Tina, spreading her hands.
……
At a café three blocks away from the hotel, Mr. Yoo met the old man again. Ordering a cup of coffee, he sat down across from the old man.
"You don't seem happy to see me?" asked the old man.
"I'm worried about my sketches. ”
"Are you worried about being torn by me again? Young people don't be so stingy~"
"Do you remember who I am?"
"Although I am a little forgetful from time to time, I am not a 'crazy' person who has Alzheimer's disease. ”
Being ridiculed by the old man like this, Rao is Liu Shixin also felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I retracted my inappropriate words. Although the old man once tore his drawing paper, the other party was an old man after all, and there was no need for a young man to raise a bar with an old man. Out of politeness, Liu Shixin apologized.
"Good design!" said the old man, putting the sketch on the table.
"Uh...... Thank you!" Liu Shixin didn't expect that the other party would actually praise him instead of sneering.
"However, there is still a lot to improve. ”
"Well, that's just the first draft. ”
"Alright, the things are for you, old man, I should also go. Young man, goodbye. ”
"Goodbye. ”
"Oh, by the way, remember to settle the bill, and the tip. The old man walked a few steps, turned around and said this to Liu Shixin.
"Forehead ......"
"Hahahaha......" Seeing Liu Shixin's constipated expression, the old man smiled heartily, pushed open the door and walked out.
……
When the corners of Liu Shixin's mouth twitched, Zheng Xiuyan called.
"Maomao, are you done?"
"Well, I'm tired. What are you doing?"
"Met a madman......"
"Mo?"
