Chapter 63 Whose Design Is This
Chapter 63 Whose Design Is This
With her head down, Hannah hears the sudden call. Then she gives a blank look before standing
up,"Ah?"
"Come here," Rose beckons to her gently.
Everyone in the conference room is looking at her.
"Who is she?"
"She might be the new assistant, the one always in the break room and copy room."
"Assistant? What does Rose ask her for?"
"..."
With a lot of doubt around, Hannah is also at a loss. She closes her hard-faced notebook and walks
towards Rose.
"In our field, both hard work and talents are wanted. You have talents, but it is not enough. You need to
work hard all the time. Otherwise, no matter how much inspiration you have, it will eventually be
exhausted. When I talk about how to design the autumn and winter series, all of you just staring at me
blankly, except Hannah who is the only one writing and drawing with her head down, thinking about
what I say." Rose pats Hannah on the shoulder. "Come on, tell them what you wrote in the notebook."
Hannah is frozen, "In fact, I didn't write anything important, just something casual."
"Go ahead. We are just brainstorming right now. Anyone who has a good idea can speak up and
discuss it together."
"I really didn't write anything important..." Hannah looks embarrassed.
"Don't be afraid, I know your talent."
Anna, Rose’s assistant, suddenly grabs her notebook, "Don’t be shy."
"Hey…” Hannah fails to stop her, and the notebook has already been opened by Anna.
She could clearly see Anna’s face turn dark. Anna lifts the corner of her mouth and gives Rose a look,
suggesting her speechlessness.
"What happened?" Rose takes a look, and then her smile is frozen.
On that hard-faced notebook, there is a page of little tortoises, with different expressions and actions,
crying or laughing, sitting or lying down...
This is what Hannah just brainstormed.
"I said, I really didn't write anything...you don't believe me." Hannah mutters in a low voice.
Everyone is curious about her notebook, and all of them stretch their heads to see, but Anna closes
Hannah’s notebook suddenly.
Rose coughs on purpose to draw their attention, "Nothing important. Besides the bad news just now, I
also have good news, but I hope the good news will give you inspirations rather than relief." With her
words, Rose glances at Anna, "Send these copies to everyone."
The stack of folders piled on the conference table is handed out by Anna to the designers in the front
row of the conference table.
Hannah doesn’t get one, so she doesn’t know what is inside. She has always been standing beside
Rose, staring at her notebook nervously.
Is her mind wandering during the meeting going to be her biggest failure on her way of conquering
Shahbaz Group? Will she be fired right after the meeting ends?
After they get the copied manuscripts, one after another, they open them. The meeting room is filled
with the sound of paper fluttering one after another for an instant, with the sound of surprise and
exclamation. "Whose design is this?"
Rose looks at everyone, "Forget the designer. Just say something about, what if we use this set of
design as the Shahbaz Autumn and Winter Gold Jewelry?"
Everyone discusses a lot, "The patterns used in this set of jewelry are all auspicious animals, and the
moire..."
"This set is in full compliance with the style of our Shahbaz Jewelry, magnificent."
"But the patterns are complicated so the craftsmanship needed is much more complicated. I'm afraid
the price will far exceed the spring and summer series."
Hearing the patterns, Hannah comes back to her senses. She glances at the copy of the nearest
designer in front of her. Seeing the drawing on the manuscript, she suddenly fixes her eyes on it. This
design is ...
"It is common for the autumn and winter series to be more expensive than the spring and summer
ones. Even the autumn and winter clothes are more expensive. You just have too much concern. A
good designer needs to consider the level of public consumption, but we shouldn’t put limits
everywhere. Often, we think big first, and finally come back."Rose is in a very good mood, and she
rarely says a lot of guiding words.
The crowd listens for a long time, and someone praises, "Rose, your design is of course incomparable
to that of the entire design department, otherwise you would not be a judge of London's Young jewelry
design competition."
"Well, this time you guess wrong," Rose glances at the designer who speaks, "I am not the designer of
it."
There is an uproar in the room.
Rose looks at Hannah with uncontrollable appreciation in her eyes. "Hannah, tell them about the
inspiration and concept of your design."
Before Hannah comes back to her senses, in a daze, she has been taken to the slide by Rose.
Connected to the computer, the projection turns on, with her entire autumn and winter series design on
the slide screen. It is indeed her drawing that she sends to Rose's office before.
Still in a daze, she doesn’t speak fluently at first. But since after all it is her own design, she talks better
later, and she even gets a little excited in the end.
"The pattern of the moire is quite special. It is the inspiration I find from the costumes of a Duchess of
an old aristocratic family discovered by archaeologists. The lady died at the age of eighty. At that time
she lived a long life..."
When she finishes, one hour has passed.
Only when the assistant on the side brings a glass of water, she just feels thirsty, thanks her and steps
aside to drink.
Rose takes the lead in applauding, and soon there is thunderous applause in the entire conference
room. "The design of Hannah is actually sent to me very early. At that time, I left it alone when I was
busy with things. Later, the autumn and winter series was finalized. I had forgotten the drawings in a
pile of scraps. If Anna hadn’t packed up those things and found out her design, our loss would be
great."
With these words, Rose doesn’t hesitate to give her appreciation to Hannah.
Even at the meeting, she directly announces that starting from today. Hannah can do her design as an
independent designer in their department, be offered an independent office, and choose two people at
will to be assistants with her in the design of autumn and winter series.
Things go too suddenly. Hannah is happy, but not overwhelmed.
Being recognized by department leaders is just her first step in Shahbaz Group.
After the meeting, Sebastien helps her move things to her independent office, which belongs to
Heather before, but now Heather is gone, and the new owner replaces the old.
"Hannah, I never know you are so talented in design before. I have been here for two years and I have
never seen Rose praise anyone so much."
Sebastien looks at her with admiration, "You have been an independent designer less than a month
since you came in. I dare say that no one in London is as good as you."
Hannah looks at him with arms folded, "So what?"
"Hey," Sebastien has a boyish round face, and now he smiles even more boyishly, "So can you choose
me as your assistant?"
