Chapter Twenty-Five: He Got to Know Me
"Miss, you really can do it! Before the exhibition was dismantled, we preemptively demolished our bar! "The staff is quite humorous!
"Yes, yes, I'm too anxious." I have to say with a smile.
"Let's go to the finance office and settle the loss fee. This is also considered drunk vandalism, but fortunately you are in the exhibition hall, not on the road. The service staff smiled.
"Okay, I'll go now, don't worry, I'll pay for everything!" I also said it boldly.
In the finance room, I paid more than 2,000 yuan for the loss, what an expensive wine!
Before leaving, the staff also gave me advice: "This young lady, you are so beautiful, you should pay attention to your image in the future, you must know that you are not strong enough to drink, don't create chaos in public, and don't wear high heels to drink......"
Belch...... Well, high heels are also an important murder weapon, and I wore them this morning in order to perform better, but I didn't expect to cause such a disaster.
"Okay, okay, I'm going to stop making a mess in the future.
I limped away with high heels and bare feet, and I felt so embarrassed when I saw Garvey waiting outside, and when I saw the people still watching the excitement......
When he and Garvey returned to Dameijia's booth, they found that the two Batman outfits on the costume display shelf were missing!
"What's going on? What about clothes? I pointed to the bare model frame and asked Sister Da Mei.
"Ouch, Xia Xue, you're back! Just now, a few people wanted to buy these two clothes, and I didn't sell them at first, but then their prices compared with each other, and they got higher and higher, until the boss of the prosperous world came out with 10,000 yuan! I'll sell it, and I'll send the money in a moment! ”
"What?! You're sold! The boss of the prosperous world came out with 10,000 yuan! "It was my turn to exclaim.
"How? Two sets of 10,000 yuan, no loss! Da Mei said proudly.
"Did you buy it all over the world?" Garvey asked.
"yes, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have asked him to take his clothes away first, and then give him cash later! Rest assured, although he has a bigger shelf, his reputation is still guaranteed, and he has never owed me money for the goods. Da Mei said.
"But that's a dress made for Garvey!" I still feel like something is wrong.
"There are 10,000 yuan, and a few more are enough! Yes, Mr. Garvey. Da Mei said again.
"I don't care, it's enough to have this set of aha models to wear, the question is what is Mantianhao doing when he buys these two clothes?" Garvey asked.
He said that the design level of these two ready-to-wear clothes was good, but it was a pity that ......" Da Mei glanced at me and stopped talking.
"What a pity?" I asked.
"It's a pity that the designer is terrible. He said he had just greeted you, but you were addicted to free drinks and were already drunk. Da Mei was afraid that I would be upset when I heard this, and added: "I explained to him that Xia Xue has always been very dedicated, but she is too tired to relax, and she doesn't know what happened......"
I suddenly remembered the customer who refused to toast with me at the wine table just now, he was the only one who greeted me just now, could he be full of skylight?
It's really depressing.
I didn't expect him to take the initiative to greet me for the first time, and I was so embarrassed.
It's really like providence.
Man Tianhao's assistant sent 10,000 yuan in cash.
Just as I was about to take it, Garvey stopped.
"Assistant Liu, I'm sorry, please tell Mr. Man, these two sets of clothes are not for sale, only for display, not for sale. You take this money back, clothes, if you like it, just keep it! Count the gifts Xia Xue gave him. Jia Weiyun said lightly, so big-name fan.
Assistant Liu, I, Da Mei, were all stunned! They all looked at Garvey.
"Garvey, why should I give a gift to the sky?! I don't want to send him! Thinking of what he said to Sister Da Mei, I blocked my heart.
"We said that Miss Xia was short of money, and 10,000 yuan was to support her in design. There's really no need to send it. "Assistant Liu handed me the money again.
I reached out to take it.
But as if he had a grudge against money, Garvey stopped me again, pushed me to the side, and whispered in my ear: "Do you remember Yang Yali spending money on your design?" Your clothes don't have a brand, and if you accept the money, it is likely to be copied. ”
"Huh? Then I'll get my clothes back. "It turned out that Jiawei was sending it as a reason, so that Man Tianhao was embarrassed to copy my design.
"Damei sells it, and you have to come back, it seems that it has no reputation. Listen to me, send him, let him watch it. Javiti whispered to me.
I lifted my spirits, cleared my throat, and said to Assistant Liu: "Thank you for your generosity, these two clothes, even if you give them to him, you can take the money back." I'm just a small designer, and I'm really short of money, but I can afford two clothes. ”
The assistant had to take the money and leave.
Sister Da Mei looked at me, then at Garvey, and said with an inexplicable expression: "You two, are you both delirious from alcohol?" Do you have money to earn or give away for nothing? Figure what? ”
"Sister Da Mei, Batman's style can be copied in minutes, I don't charge him money, he may not imitate it, at least he will feel indebted to me. If I collect money, there will be no bottom line for plagiarism. "I think of how justifiably Yang Yali imitated my girl's heart that time, just because she gave money, and she didn't have to take my feelings into account at all.
"But what if it's a copy? At least you've got 10,000 dollars. Besides, how do you know that if he doesn't take money, he won't imitate it? Even if he doesn't imitate it, won't someone else copy it? Da Mei continued to ask.
"If he wants to buy this design, 10,000 yuan is too little, and if he just buys two clothes, 10,000 yuan is too much. With his influence in the industry, he will not do things designed by others without money, he has no need for this. Garvey said.
"And it's not easy for others to imitate, if you don't have a sample, just from memory." The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Garvey was right not to let me take money, so that Man Tianhao would respect my work.
Sister Da Mei finally understood what we meant, and said sincerely: "Xia Xue, I am very optimistic about you, you will definitely become the best designer!" Female designers are not easy to mix, but now, you are beautiful, talented, and up-and-coming, and you will soon be recognized by the fashion industry! ”
In the next few days, several garment companies called me and invited me to join.
Once, I used to look for a job with my work, but no one cared about it.
Now, I just hand out business cards at trade fairs, and companies come to me and want to hire me.
Happy, I asked Garvey: "Why is there such a big reversal in the matter of finding a job?" ”
Garvey said that because I am my work, talent cannot be isolated from me as a person. When I applied for the job with a small sample, the other party looked at me, fat body, low self-esteem, when they saw me, they had already sentenced the work in their hearts, with such a preconception, and then look at the design sample, the acceptance will not be high.
At the exhibition, I not only successfully slimmed down, improved my appearance, but also enthusiastically and confidently introduced my design works to customers, the most important thing is that the design sample has also become ready-to-wear, with more direct visual effects, coupled with the help of Jiawei, and borrowed the momentum of the release of Shengshi Garment's new clothing, my work has become quite successful.
I see.
"Shall I go to work? Where are you going, and where are you going to work? "I'm a little dazed.
"Does the master want to go to work?" Garvey asked.
"I need money." I can honestly say that the biggest pressure right now is the cost of Garve.
"Has the master ever thought about looking for a job with a monthly salary?"
"At least 40,000 is enough." Garvey costs 30,000 yuan per month, the rent costs 5,000 yuan per month, and the rest is used for living expenses, and 40,000 yuan is not enough.
"Then the owner can go and talk to these companies about the treatment and feel the market." Garvey said.
Over the next two days, I made appointments with several companies that were interested in hiring me.
This time I was much more confident and confident to negotiate the salary.
"What's the situation with the treatment?"
"The highest salary for our designers is 20,000 yuan before tax...... the interviewer told me with a smile.
If it was before, I would have been crazy with joy, because it is not easy to get the highest salary of a designer, generally I have to be an assistant designer first, and then slowly promoted to designer and chief designer, and the other party gave me the highest salary, which shows my recognition.
I talked to a few more companies, and most of them were paid a salary of about 20,000 yuan.
But now, 20,000 a month is not enough.
I used to think that I could make a living if I found a job, but now that this road has been blocked, I can no longer expect to work to earn money, and the position of designer currently does not have the salary that can meet my needs, I really don't know how Yang Yali can earn so much money.
When I met with Director Xiao Wu and introduced the script of the depression ad to me, I was full of money, and how to earn money to maintain expenses has become the top priority at present. The money in my hand is only enough for this month's service fee, and it will not be enough for next month.
"Xia Xue, are you listening to me?" Director Xiao Wu looked at me and asked.
"Huh? I'm distracted, I'm sorry. I said.
"Do you have something on your mind?"
"Director Xiao Wu, how much is the cost of this film? How much can I earn? ”
"The funding for this advertisement has been negotiated, it is 50,000 yuan, and you will be given 15,000."
"Wow! That's great! It's so fun! I'm going to be able to make money! Director Xiao Wu, your industry is more profitable than the fashion industry! "I happily applauded Director Xiao Wu and said with envy.
"The cost of PSAs is the lowest, and it's not difficult to make a lot of money, as long as you take some commercial advertisements." Director Xiao Wu said optimistically.
"Really? Then why don't you take it? ”
"No one recognized me before, but now it's different, our alliance is the biggest advantage, and I will find some commercials suitable for you to shoot while it's hot, and we will inevitably become rich!" He said with a high spirit.
"Okay, you must do it, we must become rich quickly, otherwise ......" Otherwise, Garvey will not be guaranteed, I swallowed back.
"Otherwise what?"
"Otherwise, I'm probably going to get depression!" It's a joke, but I'm really scared of losing Garvey.
The phone rang, and Assistant Liu called.
Man Tianhao invited me to his office to talk about the design ideas of the Batman costume!
What the? What the? I can't believe it.
The president of Shengshi Garment took the initiative to meet me?
