Chapter 345: Are You Sure You Remember?
After Bai Shu went out, Xi Lingyan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office and pondered. The sunlight outside the window was warm and bright, but it couldn't dissipate the sorrow that permeated Xi Lingyan's body at the moment.
The top priority is to restore the studio's reputation, and if the problem of leaking the design draft cannot be solved within three days, the contractor will be held legally responsible, and the lawsuit will be a big blow to the studio that has finally improved.
Bai Shu returned to the workbench, and the goose egg face, which had always been full of smiles, was also gloomy at the moment. She was very moved, Xi Lingyan firmly believed that she was not an internal ghost. But he also deeply blamed himself for not keeping his confidentiality in place.
"Ugh."
Bai Shu let out a long sigh and collapsed on the work table in frustration, his little meat hand rubbing his neat short hair into a mess. At this moment, she racked her brains to think about who else had come into contact with the design draft besides herself and Ling Yan.
It was almost dusk, and when it was time to get off work, people in the studio deliberately lowered their voices to speak because of the leakage of the design draft, and the whole studio seemed quiet, and everyone was quietly busy in their seats, without the active scene of laughter and excitement in the past.
They are also very serious about this matter, and they have to be imprisoned for the leak of this design draft, and they don't want to bear this black pot.
Xi Lingyan carefully reviewed the design draft that had been leaked, and occasionally took up a pen to record it on it. Unconsciously forgot the time. Until the phone rings.
Zhiheng called and asked, "Mom, when are you going to get off work, Zhiyu and I are so hungry, I miss you so much." ”
Ling Yan picked up his phone, it was already late. She got up and sorted out the artwork and paperwork, ready to leave work.
As soon as he left the office, Xi Lingyan was surprised to see a completely different scene from the past, the employees were performing their duties and continuing to be busy with the work in hand.
Their faces have also become very serious because of the crisis in the studio, and their work is very serious. The low sound of the printer is also audible at this moment.
Xi Lingyan choked suddenly, the studio has been established for so long, everyone also has a deep affection for this place, and when they encounter a crisis, everyone also tries to find a way, she is really grateful to everyone who works here, so she will never tolerate the existence of traitors.
She told everyone to get off work and have a good rest, motivating herself and encouraging everyone: "Let's get off work, have a good rest, everyone go back and think about the solution for the design draft, and we will have a meeting tomorrow morning." Hard work everyone, I believe that the difficulties will be solved. ”
Employees began to pack up and leave work, and the clutter began to ring.
Bai Shu hesitantly walked to Ling Yan's side, his head was very low, and he hesitated to speak: "Ling Yan, I, I haven't thought of it yet." ”
Ling Yan sighed slightly, patted Bai Shu's shoulder, looked at Bai Shu's red eyes, and said softly, "It's okay, take your time, go home and rest first." Don't cry, it's not pretty. ”
Bai Shu nodded, his voice was small but firm: "Ling Yan, don't worry, I will definitely find out who leaked the secret." ”
"Yes, I do. Let's go, go home from work. After Ling Yan finished speaking, he went home from work with Bai Shu.
Ling Yan took a deep breath before entering the door, suppressing the emotions at work to her heart, she didn't want the children to notice that her mother was unhappy.
As soon as she entered, the babies came over to hug her warmly, and she kissed their little cheeks and played with them. After a simple dinner, Xi Lingyan played Lego with the two babies and coaxed the children to sleep. Watching the children sleep peacefully, the thick and slender eyelashes sprinkled a faint light and shadow on the children's white and leaky faces, and their chests rose and fell regularly with breathing.
The small mouth opened slightly, and Zhiyu also snorted slightly. The two brothers slept opposite each other, dreaming sweetly. Ling Yan kissed the two babies on the faces, covered them with quilts, and walked out of the bedroom.
Gently covering the children's bedroom doors, Xi Lingyan became serious again in the face of the children's relaxation. The contractor is aggressive, and the solution of the design draft is imminent. Ling Yan was lying on the bed, his brows furrowed, tossing and turning. I was never able to fall asleep.
Ling Yan arrived at the studio early the next morning, and the atmosphere in the studio was dull. As soon as Xi Lingyan returned to the office, he immediately convened a meeting between the secretary and designer Nanya and others.
At the meeting, Xi Lingyan first asked a few of them to discuss the solution, Xi Lingyan listened and thought about it, and everyone just started to speak actively and constantly put forward countermeasures, but they were constantly refuted by others.
Time passed slowly, and the atmosphere in the conference room became more and more oppressive. Seeing that Ling Yan was expressionless all the time, everyone didn't speak, they looked at each other and bowed their heads silently. The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly stiffened. Xi Lingyan looked around and slowly spoke.
Xi Lingyan faced the designer Nan Ya: "Nan Ya, you are the designer in charge of this design, and the leaked design draft is also your hard work, do you think it is feasible for us to redesign the contractor's drawings at present?" ”
Designer Nanya looked at the design draft in his hand again and replied: "In the previous design draft, we had a small dispute with the contractor when we discussed it, and we originally wanted to use new environmentally friendly materials to deal with this place, but the contractor's funds were very low, so in the end we still used the existing cheap materials." In my opinion, in order to consider the comprehensiveness and longevity of the design, it is necessary to use new materials here. Nan Ya said with a pen circled on one side of the design draft.
Xi Lingyan was silent for a moment, his eyes looking around at everyone present. He spoke calmly: "I also agree with the plan of the South Asian designer, the original design draft was revealed, and in order to recover the losses of both the studio and the contractor, we had to replace the design draft. Time is limited. We can only solve the problems of the original design draft, and maybe there is still a chance. Now, we're going to negotiate with the contractor to keep the design rights in our studio. ”
Xi Lingyan asked Nanya and other designers to go with her to the contractor to redesign the manuscript in a limited time to recoup the loss.
After the front desk of the contractor reported, he tactfully informed Xi Lingyan that their person in charge was not available to meet him. Let Xi Lingyan and them continue to wait in the hall.
The crowd of people coming and going in the hall, exploring, curious, chaotic eyes scanned her back and forth. Xi Ling's face did not squint, he stood straight, with a decent smile on his face, his eyes calm, silently waiting for the responsible reception of the contractor.
The waiting time was getting longer and longer, Nan Ya and the others gradually became anxious, Nan Ya paced back and forth and muttered angrily, Xi Lingyan looked at Bai Shu calmly, and let everyone calm down.
After a long time, the front desk asked them to go to the conference room to meet the person in charge at noon.
"I don't deny that the leak of the design draft was indeed our mistake, but I implore you to give our studio some time and I will give you an explanation."
Xi Lingyan was respectful and took the initiative to bear the consequences of this time.
The anger on the face of the boss of the contractor was not alleviated, "Mr. Xi, our small temple can't accommodate your big Buddha, if you think the price we give you is too low, you can not accept our order at all." ”
"If this is the case, your company's prices are already high." Xi Lingyan politely accompanied the smiling face.
"You have the support of the Qin family, who dares to argue with you?"
"You!" Nan Ya was angry and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xi Lingyan.
After all, they were wrong about this matter in the first place.
Xi Lingyan's repeated requests got a slightly better face from the contractor, but the request was to suppress this matter.
Back at the company, Xi Lingyan sat on the swivel chair as if tired, sitting facing the window, and breathed a sigh of relief. At present, the construction side has temporarily solved it, but the leak of the design draft is obviously an internal ghost. Who could it be? The glass window reflected Ling Yan's figure in deep thought.
Bai Shu thought hard in the office yesterday to no avail, and when he got home, he didn't sleep well, and when he went to work today with a pair of heavy panda eyes, he was startled by the security check outside the door.
Bai Shu lay on the table and secretly swore in his heart: he couldn't live up to Ling Yan's trust in him, and he must remember who else had touched the design draft. Thinking about it, Bai Shu fell asleep on the table.
"Ah~" A long yawn came out of Bai Shu's mouth, she stretched her waist, opened her misty eyes, and was stunned. Suddenly, I heard the screeching sound of a chair scraping the floor. Bai Shu jumped up and ran towards Xi Lingyan's office.
Xi Lingyan was still pondering in front of the window, only to hear the office door be broken open with a "bang". She was startled and turned around suddenly, only to see Bai Shu panting in front of the desk. The little face was red because of excitement, and the hair was messy. Incoherently, he said, "I, I remembered." And Lin Lin and Xin'er have seen the design draft."
Xi Lingyan stood up, walked in front of Bai Shu, took her hand, looked at Bai Shu with her eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Are you sure you remember." ”
Bai Shu took a deep breath to calm himself, looked back at Ling Yan's eyes, and replied calmly: "I remember, I'm sure, in addition to you, me, Nanya, and Lin Lin and Xin'er have seen the design draft." ”
Bai Shu replied while relieving: "After you gave me the design draft, I locked it in the drawer on the desk, and I only had the key, and you asked me to bring you another document that day, I was in a hurry, and I forgot to lock it after opening the drawer." When I went back, I saw Lin Lin sitting in my seat, looking nervous, and I clearly remember that my drawer was open at that time, and the design was placed on the top. I didn't think about it at the time. Bai Shu scratched his hair in annoyance.
Xi Lingyan wandered a few steps and said, "Lin Lin, you just saw this situation and guessed, what happened to Xin'er?" ”
Bai Shu's face suddenly turned red, and he said: "That day, we had coffee and chatted together, Xin'er said that she had always wanted to break through her own design, and begged me to say that she wanted to learn from the drawings of South Asia and improve her ability." I usually have a good relationship with her, and I thought it was just a look. I, I hesitated for a moment, thinking that it wasn't a big deal, so I showed her the design draft. However, I watched it with her, and I, I don't know if she leaked it. ”
Xi Lingyan nodded and said to Bai Shu: "We can't wronged every colleague, but we can't let go of every suspicious person. Let's ask them first. After speaking, he turned around and walked to the desk and picked up the phone: "Inform Lin Lin and Xin'er to go to the conference room immediately." ”
Paused for two seconds, "No, let Lin Lin come first." Hanging up the phone, she and Bai Shu walked towards the conference room with heavy steps and serious faces.
