Chapter Seventy-Nine: Plagiarism Turmoil
Her words were obviously said to Jiang Juan.
The woman in front of her is wearing heavy European-style makeup, and the dark eye shadow matches her deep eye sockets, which has a kind of panda eye charm. Although the overall makeup list is exquisite, it doesn't fit her face shape very well, and just looking at it like this, I feel that there is an indescribable awkwardness.
On weekdays, Jiang Juan is not a person who likes to speak quickly, as soon as she joined Iris Design Company, the speed of promotion exceeded that of any previous designer, and it was common for others to chew the root of the tongue.
In the past, when others targeted her, she just didn't see it and focused on her own business, but she really couldn't raise a good impression of this person who still wanted to bite back.
"If you have time to dictate other people's affairs, it's better to refine your own design draft, a company as big as Chu's can't afford to lose like a small company like us......" Jiang Juan turned to Xiao Man and tidied up his messy collar, and his tone was light.
This self-deprecating remark sounds good on the surface, but secretly reminds the designer who jumped ship that the risk of entering Chu's is much greater than in Iris, and Chu can't afford to lose in this fashion design competition, and she can't afford to lose.
The eyes with heavy eye shadow glared at Jiang Wan fiercely, and after hearing what she said, his face changed in an instant.
"I ...... We can't afford to lose, because Chu is used to being in a high position, and it's not easy to lose. Panda Eye didn't expect Jiang Juan to reply to her, and she was a little incoherent for a while.
Jiang Wan looked back at her roughly, smiled and shook his head.
"Look at your trench coat, it is from the hand of Steve, the design master of country D, but his series of clothes completely copied the former top international designer Rebecca's "Autumn Mood" series of clothes, but unfortunately the imitation technique is not bad, I almost didn't see it......" Jiang Juan raised his eyebrows and looked at each other, the anger in his heart intensified, but his tone was always calm.
"You ......" Panda pointed at Jiang Juan's face with hatred, full of anger and disdain, the most taboo thing for designers is this kind of plagiarism in clothing design, Jiang Huang said it, and she was speechless for a while.
"I wish you all the best in the race, and I'm looking forward to you leading the Chu family back to the top." The competition is imminent, and the company's representative design team has also entered the field one after another, and Jiang Juan didn't bother to talk nonsense with her anymore, so she didn't even say hello, and went straight to the position of her company.
After the host announced all the precautions, the third stage of the competition, the display and selection of design products, officially kicked off.
As early as a week ago, the organizers of the design competition had collected the drawings submitted by various companies, and after a series of selections by the judges, only 15 groups of design teams from companies entered the finals.
Jiang Juan leaned on the seat, raised her eyes and looked at the big screen scrolling on the booth, the design drafts of each team were randomly displayed on the screen, with different styles and different themes, judging from the manuscripts alone, although the production of each team was fine, there was not much innovation in the overall version and form, and she did not find any highlights and surprises.
She looked back, and there seemed to be some noise at the exhibition, with some amateur visitors pointing to the drawings on the screen to figure out the analysis, and the mess was a little annoying.
"What's wrong with you? Nervous? Jiang Wan was bored observing others, but he caught a glimpse of Xiao Man, who was extremely nervous.
The girl's hands were clasped tightly together, and from her point of view, Xiao Man's body seemed to tremble, her thin lips pursed slightly, and she stared intently at the booth in front of her.
Suddenly hearing Jiang Juan's voice, Xiao Man was also startled, she raised her hand and tugged at Jiang Juan's sleeve, signaling her to look forward.
At present, the first set of works on display at the booth is the designer's inspiration from the wilderness, the overall tone of the clothes is biased towards light green, youthful and lively, less innovative form, but strong sense of design.
Xiao Man frowned and stared at the booth, and after a while, he asked: "Good looking is good-looking, but why does it feel a little wrong?"
The corners of Jiang Wan's mouth hooked a gentle arc, and he said lightly: "Although the design theme of the competition is not limited, the design style is not limited, and the requirements for us are relatively relaxed, but after all, it is the end of summer and early autumn, and the competition is not designed for high-end catwalks.
"Oh, I see." Xiao Man suddenly realized, and then realized that the light green tone design on the stage formed a sharp contrast from the color of the audience's clothes, which seemed a little abrupt in the dense crowd.
"Next is the latest work of the chief designer of Iris Company, which the designer named 'Hope' after the theme of the four seasons!" At the same time as the black cloth was lifted, accompanied by the introduction of the host and the exclamations of the audience, the finished design of Jiang Xuan's team was displayed in front of everyone.
This series of clothes is mainly warm colors, with spring, summer, autumn and winter as the seasonal boundaries divided into four sets of clothes, although the four sets of clothes are different in style, but the design is equally simple.
Among them, on the light-colored dress of the spring model, Jiang Wan was inspired by the butterfly wings, made a small design at the back and shoulder position, added the popular PVC material, and the transparent wings slowly spread out from the back of the dress, which looked extremely eye-catching under the soft yellow light.
The warm sun in winter, the sunset leaves in autumn, the cool in summer, the butterfly wings in spring, each piece of clothing has the same tone, supplemented by different details and styles.
In particular, the pair of slowly rising wings are particularly eye-catching among the ordinary exhibits.
Seeing the wonders on the booth, the people below couldn't sit still, stretching out their heads to carefully look at the pair of transparent and finely textured wings, and the exclamations in the exhibition hall came and went.
"The so-called hope, is to experience the things as wings, to help us go higher and further, we live in reality for too long, will be polished by life to forget that there is the word 'hope' in the world, I think, with my design close to fairy tales, to bring you a pair of wings that can soar."
"Hope lies in us, not in others, good clothes will make people feel comfortable, meet life with a good attitude, and the opportunities will increase, which is the eternal truth."
Jiang Juan got up slowly, turned from the front row to face the team and the audience who came to visit the exhibition, his tone was as indifferent as ever, and his demeanor was as elegant as ever.
Before the words fell, the applause from the audience was thunderous, and Xiao Kaiyan, who was also sitting in the audience, looked at the scene in front of her, and her face suddenly sank.
She glanced at Jiang Xuan, who was explaining the design with cold eyes, and a hatred rose in her heart, and the mobile phone she was holding sent a message, and after a while, she left the waiting seat.
It's not easy to be in the limelight right under her nose.
"Iris Design Company is also a relatively well-known brand, how can it still do such a thing and shoot yourself in the foot?"
The sensation of the exhibition gradually calmed down, and the audience just sighed separately, but at this moment, a woman's voice came from some direction.
Before Jiang Juan sat down and could hear the words clearly, she subconsciously looked at the source of the voice, her eyes swept over the waiting areas of various companies, and finally stopped on a familiar face.
The person who spoke was none other than the chief designer who had jumped from Iris to Chu's - a delicate woman with panda eye makeup.
"What do you mean by this, starting to ridicule for no reason if your strength is not comparable?" There seemed to be an audience member in the back row who heard what Panda Eye said and muttered a few sarcasm words.
The exhibition hall, which had just quieted down, was once again shocked by Panda Eye's words.
"In public, please pay attention to your words and deeds, and speak with a basis." Jiang Juan glanced at the woman, she didn't understand the deep meaning of the woman's sour words, so she simply reminded her kindly.
After all, Panda Eye is now Chu's designer, and her words and deeds represent not only herself, but more importantly, Chu's.
"Miss Jiang Juan, don't you think that the design style of your series of exhibits is too similar to that of Elanda, a rising international design star?" Panda Eyes got up from the banquet, she seemed to have changed her clothes, the trench coat that was originally draped on her body was now gone, her eyes contained a dangerous smile, and her tone was even more aggressive.
A year ago, one of the award-winning works of Elanda, a rising international design star, in the international fashion design competition, was based on the cycle of the four seasons, with modern color matching and tailoring lines to stand out among many exhibits. The woman's fierce eyes glanced at Jiang Xuan's face from time to time, trying to catch a hint of panic from her expression.
"You can search for it, although the overall version of these clothes designed by Jiang Juan has changed, some details are the same as Elanda's designs." The panda's eyes were late, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose a lot.
It seems that Xiao Kaiyan's plan is very effective, but just a few words have incited the emotions of the audience.
The people in the exhibition hall looked at each other in disbelief when they heard this, and the audience also changed the direction of the wind at this time, and searched for Elanda's works from the Internet with the mentality of eating melons.
"Plagiarism? I can see from a layman that this kind of person should be removed from the competition! ”
"In such a big competition, plagiarism is shameful, and it is unfair to other contestants not to be removed!"
The exhibition hall was suddenly bustling, and Chu Wei, who was sitting on the side with the team, didn't make a sound, but he was a little worried when he saw so many people besieging Jiang Juan.
But it's more about anticipation.
He wanted to know how Jiang Juan would deal with this situation.
Jiang Wan pursed her lips and looked at the audience, although she was said by ugly words, her face did not show a trace of guilt, but was as relaxed and calm as before.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint smile faded from the corners of her eyes, and after a long while, she slowly asked, "You mean, I copied Elanda?"
