Chapter 374: Chapter 374: Worthy or Not, She Decides!

"Lizi..."

The office door was knocked, Ye Li looked up, and saw Wan Mingyi who came in after knocking.

Wan Mingyi was holding a contract.

Her eyes were a bit red.

"I saw the new contract you modified..."

Wan Mingyi said emotionally, "Lizi, I think we are just as good as before."

"Being partners, isn’t that good?"

Ye Li smiled and asked.

It’s not bad.

It’s too good.

Looking at Ye Li, then back at the darkening sky outside the window, Wan Mingyi laughed, "If someone had told me half a year ago, you’re about to achieve your dream, I would’ve thought they were joking."

But things are just that miraculous.

Kicked out the lousy man.

Met Ye Li.

Then opened the Pandora’s Box of her dreams.

It was expected that in three to five years, she could become a designer with ideas and creativity, really stepping over the threshold of a jewelry designer, having her own works known in the industry, would be her greatest success.

But just within six months.

Had a portfolio.

Also had award-winning works.

Every now and then, she’d receive calls from headhunters or studio owners, asking if she’s willing to switch jobs.

The offered price gets higher each time.

"Lizi, as long as you want me, I’m willing to be a designer at the studio for a lifetime. Even though there are only two of us now, as long as Ye Li’s Studio exists, I’ll always be here."

Wan Mingyi looked fixedly at Ye Li, making a solemn declaration.

Ye Li smiled, "Sister Mingyi, the more capable you are, the more work you do, let me slack off a bit, okay?"

Wan Mingyi blinked.

Ye Li said with a smile, "Right now I’m just a nominal boss, almost everything in the studio is done by you. And in my heart, I’ve never thought of you as working for me, this is our business, our goal is to move forward together, isn’t it great?"

"There’ll be no salary from now on, President Wan!"

Pushing the contract Wan Mingyi brought in back to her, Ye Li’s eyes were bright, "I’ll handle external dispatching, like what competitions to participate in, I’ll decide. You’ll handle internal management, like recruiting designers, who to hire, you decide... In short, we’ll roll up our sleeves and work hard, together we strive forward for money!"

Forward?

Or strive for money?

Facing Ye Li with a smiling face, Wan Mingyi understood instantly.

Without further hesitation, Wan Mingyi signed her name boldly.

Standing up, she extended her hand with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for your support, I’ll work hard!"

Ye Li stood up and grasped her hand, "President Wan, good luck, I have high hopes for you!"

Looking into each other’s eyes, both smiled.

After releasing hands, Wan Mingyi began discussing business, "There’s a jewelry exhibition in Paris next month, this morning Chairman Ning from the Jewelry Association called, saying we’re given a spot for the studio, you should go."

"Radiant?"

Ye Li seemed to remember and immediately opened the computer to search.

The annual jewelry competition named "Radiant", hosted by the International Jewelry Association, is one of the most influential competitions in the jewelry field.

At the panel of judges at the competition scene, any one of them is a renowned top designer in the industry.

Master level.

So, "Radiant" is almost like star-chasing or pilgrimage in the eyes of domestic designers.

Seeing Ye Li’s hesitation, Wan Mingyi laughed, "I’m not being modest, diamonds are my weak point, jewelry groups have a high weight in Radiant, I’m sure to lose if I go! I’ll definitely occupy one of the places in next year’s competition in Mo Du, regardless of how many we get."

Wan Mingyi’s specialty is integrating national style elements.

Indeed, she had no advantage in the "Radiant" competition.

Ye Li no longer declined, "Alright, let’s decide."

At the same time as Wan Mingyi submitted the registration materials, there was a hubbub at Dane Studio.

"Since no one disagrees, the ones representing us Dane to compete this time will be Senior Designer Lydia, and Junior Designer Xiao Qiao."

Applause rang out, at the back of the meeting room, Jiang Chengcheng looked dejected.

Although she knew with her qualifications, she wasn’t eligible to participate in such an international competition like "Radiant", hearing the boss’s notification still filled Jiang Chengcheng with disappointment.

Back when Lin Kerou introduced her to Dane, the boss even said Dane’s greatest advantage is the willingness to strongly support new designers.

But she’s been at Dane for so long, apart from a jewelry competition at Charity Night, she’s never taken on any design work.

Even Xiao Qiao, who joined Dane a few days later, can now compete in Paris.

Both are junior designers.

Xiao Qiao is from an unknown small university.

The more she thought, the more disgruntled she became, and immediately upon stepping out of Dane, Jiang Chengcheng dialed Lin Kerou’s number.

"Mr. Lin..."

"Chengcheng, I just have something to discuss with you."

Before Jiang Chengcheng could express her grievances, Lin Kerou said, "Your Weibo and other social accounts have been growing well in the past two months. You’ve seen the effects of that ad last time, you have some idea of what the photographer fed back to you. I’m just curious about your thoughts."

"Chengcheng, how do you plan your future?... If your planning for jewelry design surpasses everything, then putting in effort like this bit by bit is also great. If you have spare capacity, I hope you can put more thoughts into social media and live advertising. Although for now, it seems to be mutually exclusive, they will definitely explode with unimaginable energy in the future."

"Chengcheng, what do you think?"

The voice on the other end was gentle yet powerful, showing a calm and elegant mastery over one’s life.

The disappointment and dreariness due to not being able to compete in Paris vanished instantly.

In Jiang Chengcheng’s mind were all the jealous comments on the campus forum high tower.

Envying her for navigating a professional studio even before graduation, already winning at the starting line.

Jealous of her, not having the beauty of girls from the neighboring film school, yet already stepping into the entertainment industry, having shot a commercial.

Even sour comments saying she was merely lucky, not deserving.

Whether it’s luck or her ability, no one knows better than herself.

Whether she deserves it, only she can decide!

Jewelry designer.

Commercial model.

A network influencer with her independent account.

In the future, once she has her own studio, she can rightfully mark in the account note: Founder of Chengcheng Jewelry Workshop.

What Ye Li has, she will have too.

And in the future, she’ll have more than Ye Li.

The more excited she got, the gloominess in her heart disappeared completely.

Jiang Chengcheng said loudly, "Mr. Lin, you’re right, I’ll listen to you!"
