Chapter 41 The Competition
Wendy noticed that the girl in a light yellow dress was walking towards her. No. To be exact, she came to the chair where she was sitting. Wendy also found that she seemed to have fallen just now, so her feet were a little clumsy now.
As she got closer, Wendy found that she was a pretty girl with big eyes, fair skin and high nose, she looked like a real Barbie doll at a close distance!
Wendy had never been immune to such a lovely beauty, so she kept her eyes on her.
So for a moment, Wendy also noticed that the girl was looking for a place to sit. But everyone was very nervous at this time, so no one paid attention to her. Some people even thought in this way, 'I'm so nervous that I want to sit. How can I give up my seat to you!'
Although Wendy didn't know this girl, she couldn't help but sigh, and quietly moved to the seat next to her. The girl immediately knew what Wendy meant and sat next to her with a smile.
Wendy didn't think too much, she kept thinking about how to introduce her PPT, so when the girl next to her talked to her, she couldn't help but pause for a while before she realized what was going on!
"Hello, I'm Emily! Nice to meet you! " Emily still wore a bright smile on her face, as if she was very happy. Because the smile was lively, her big eyes could not help but bend at this time, like a crescent moon.
Wendy pointed at herself and said, "You are talking to me?"
Emily laughed even more happily, she touched her head and said, "Of course! I just fell down and wore high heels, so my feet hurt. Thank you for giving me the seat! "
She pointed at her feet miserably, looking very pitiful.
Wendy felt warm in her heart, she didn't expect her to be so grateful for such a small action, so she felt a little embarrassed.
"It's no big deal. Your foot is injured, it's my duty to let you sit!" Besides, Wendy didn't get out of her seat, so she felt a little embarrassed.
Wendy didn't intend to talk more with Emily. After all, she was not an outgoing person. When they were not familiar with each other, others would find that she was completely different. So Wendy didn't know what to say at this moment.
However, Wendy's perfunctory words didn't seem to hinder Emily's good mood at all, she continued to say happily, "Do you know who holds this handbag contest?"
Wendy thought for a while and nodded in response, it was not that she didn't want to talk to the girl, but the first round of the competition was about to begin, now she really had no interest in it! Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"It seems to be Bruce!" This name sounded familiar to Wendy, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it.
"You... Don't you know Bruce? " Emily asked abruptly, staring at Wendy with her bright eyes.
To be honest, she felt familiar with the name after she said it just now. But if she had to tell who he was, she really couldn't think of anything else. Moreover, in such a nervous situation, it was obvious that Wendy didn't want to say anything but shook her head with a confused look.
Emily chuckled, but soon regained her composure. She still looked at Wendy and asked, "What do you think of this crowd funding?"
In fact, at the beginning, Wendy didn't know much about the concept of "crowd funding". After all, it was still a relatively new way, but after hearing what Chelsea said, she felt that it was really a good idea.
But... Emily seemed to have talked too much.
Wendy became a little impatient, mainly because of the tense atmosphere, but she restrained her emotions well. After thinking for a while, she answered Emily, "I think this concept is still new in our country, but it's a good opportunity for our designers. I think the person who preside this activity must have been born for his dream, so he gave us this opportunity... "
Wendy said sincerely. Whether she succeeded or not this time meant that she could win the prize and save her mother! And the reputation in this field in the future could be imagined! This was undoubtedly like a springboard, and from now on, there would be no worries about her future!
However, Wendy couldn't care about it anymore, she was aiming at the five million!
What she didn't know was that Emily's eyes shone brightly in front of her.
But Wendy didn't have time to look at it carefully. At this time, a round of applause rang out, and instantly the hall was in an uproar, everyone looked at the source of the applause.
The man who clapped his hands was a tall and thin man in a straight suit, but he looked ordinary, while there was a sense of dignity from him. He said calmly, "Thank you for coming. This aim of our AR Company is to gather all the talented people in the world and thank you for your trust in us. Today, it's Mr. Bruce's inspection. As long as you are talented, you will become one of the members as the designer of AR Company! "
The man's clear voice came in an instant, and the people standing next to Wendy immediately cheered excitedly, as if they had won the first prize of five million.
Wendy was puzzled, but she still heard the conversation among the people around her.
"Oh my God! To be the designer of AR Company! This is what I have never dreamed of. Not only do we have bonus, but we can also work in AR Company. It means that the design path will be prosperous in the future... "
"Yes! I really didn't expect Mr. Bruce will come in the first round! That's great... "
"Yeah, yeah..."
Hearing their words, Wendy vaguely got a general idea. She had always been gifted in handbag design, but she had always been an outsider, so she didn't know much about professional information.
About the leading figures of the designers in the handbag design field, the bustling enterprises... She didn't know much about it.
"Now, Mr. Bruce, please say something for us!" The tall and thin man clapped his hands, indicating everyone to keep silent.
Hearing what the young man said, everyone stopped talking.
At this time, a rather dignified man appeared in front of everyone's eyes. His hair was neatly combed, and he looked experienced and intimidating. His eyes were full of wrinkles because of his age, but because of good care, he did not look old. In addition, his expression was energetic, so he looked very charming, he must be very handsome when he was young.
Bruce! Bruce!
Everyone knew him! Especially in the design field. No wonder when Emily asked her just now, she always felt that she was familiar with the name. It was not until Wendy saw the man that she realized that if it weren't for the people in the handbag design world, Bruce's name must be known to everyone. In a proper way, his identity was equivalent to that of the richest in the financial world!
Wendy had seen him on the magazine many times, it turned out that this competition was so grand! Even such a person was invited. It was not easy!
At the thought of this, the anxiety in Wendy's heart rose even more.
She couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Soon after, all the candidates started the first round of primary election in the morning. Because it was a big competition, there were still many people, in the first round, 100 person were selected from all the candidates.
The first round was just a test, so it was easy for Wendy to pass, there was almost no suspense.
The remaining one hundred people were arranged in the afternoon.
It was sunny outside at noon, Wendy had no appetite to eat anything, because she was too nervous, her appetite was not very good.
Emily's sweet figure suddenly rushed in front of Wendy, who was surprised to see her again.
It seemed that Emily didn't notice the change of Wendy's mood, she was immersed in her own mood and said happily, "Everyone is going to have dinner. Why are you still here? The competition won't start until this afternoon, will it? "
Wendy nodded, "I have no appetite!" Wendy said in a low voice, after all, she didn't sleep well last night, so she felt a little sleepy!
So now...
But to her surprise, Wendy was taken aback, Emily held her hand and said, "Let's go! Otherwise, it will affect the work in the afternoon. Let's go... "
Wendy was surprised. Obviously, she didn't expect that Emily would be so enthusiastic. She wanted to refuse, but after thinking for a while, she still didn't have the heart to refuse this lovely girl.
Wendy had no idea what to eat, or to be exact, she was not in the mood at all. However, Emily's mood was quite high, she took Wendy to an Australian restaurant and ordered a lot of dishes.
So many dishes must be very expensive, which made Wendy feel a little embarrassed. However, Emily laughed heartlessly and pointed at the dishes in front of her, saying, "Eat them quickly! I'll treat you to dinner as a thank-you today... "
However, Wendy always thought that Emily was being too polite, so she couldn't help but sigh slightly, "You don't have to do this! In fact, it's just a piece of cake for that! "
Emily nodded again with a smile, she picked up a piece of dove meat and put it into Wendy's bowl. "Eat it quickly. You are so thin, it seems that you are about to faint..."
