Chapter 56 New Clothing Materials
"Why were my clothes the only ones lost? Good question! Because my guest performer and I were the only ones who finished our work first and went back to the hotel to catch up on some sleep."
"When we two returned, the lights in the other designers' tents were still on. Even if you wanted to steal, you wouldn't have a chance to do it!"
Because of her huge emotional fluctuations, Zhao Shuwan's chest heaved violently and her face turned as red as an apple.
Wen Yu lied without blinking, "Even if you guys left, there are still security guards outside your tent. How can we get in?"
"This is also what I want to question the program crew. Why, even though they hired security guards, my work was still stolen by other designers?" Zhao Shuwan looked at the director in the audience.
Director: "In that case, let's call the security guard who was on duty outside your tent last night and ask him. Then the truth will be revealed, right?"
The security guards who were on duty outside her tent last night were two Moroccans. When they were called to the stage for questioning, the two who had been playing cards together all night looked at each other, yawned and shook their heads, saying that they had been guarding outside the tent last night and did not see anyone entering or leaving the tent.
"Have you seen me and the gentleman next to me last night?" Wen Yu pointed at herself and then at George.
The security guards shook their heads like rattles.
Wen Yu smiled, "No one entered or left your tent last night, yet you said that your work was stolen by us. Were you deliberately trying to extort money from us, or were we thieves? I think the answer is obvious, right?"
She said the last sentence to the director in the audience.
Zhao Shuwan wanted to argue, but the director couldn't stand it anymore and said, "That's enough, Zhao Shuwan. I don't care what your reasons are for directing and acting in this drama. I advise you to give up these crooked ideas and work hard on your own design."
"As long as you submit your work before the show starts tomorrow night, you still have a chance, otherwise you will be disqualified."
"Now, please step down immediately and don't disturb our rehearsal."
The director's final decision put an end to this farce.
The fashion connoisseurs in the audience were talking about it.
"Oh my god! I liked her so much in previous shows, but I didn't expect she would be this kind of person!"
"Luckily, there is a security guard who testified for George, otherwise, George would never be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River!"
"How can such a person of low character be qualified to be a designer? It's really embarrassing for us designers!"
"She should be disqualified now..."
The real thief was proudly protected by everyone, but she, the person who lost the things, was almost drowned by the dirty water thrown from all directions.
This fucking world is really fucked up.
Zhao Shuwan didn't know how she walked off the stage. When she came to her senses, she was already sitting side by side with Wen Si on a high sand dune.
In front of me is endless yellow sand, and looking up is the clear blue sky.
In the vast universe, they are as small as a grain of sand in the desert.
In the long river of time, their lives are as short as mayflies, born in the morning and dead in the evening.
Almost all grand narratives advise people not to care too much about immediate gains and losses.
But even if she is just a drop in the ocean, she will still feel pain when her heart is hurt.
She thought Wen Si would comfort her, but he didn't.
She just sat with her quietly for a long time before asking, "Have you calmed down?" Zhao Shuwan nodded and was about to say, "More than calm? My heart is dying."
Then Wen Si said in a relaxed tone: "Then let's think about it together, what should we do next?"
Perhaps it was because her eyes were too determined, Zhao Shuwan's dead eyes gathered with twinkling lights, and she looked at her with hope and asked, "Do we have any other solution?"
"If you don't think hard, how can you know if there is anything else?" Wen Si said, "I always think that giving up before everything is settled is the most cowardly and incompetent behavior."
Yes, if you don’t think about it hard anymore, how will you know if there is any other solution?
Encouraged by her, Zhao Shuwan temporarily put aside all her negative emotions and focused on discussing solutions with her.
Due to the lack of strong evidence, her original work will most likely not be recovered.
So the two people's thinking direction gradually shifted from how to prove that George and Wen Yu stole their works to how to rush to produce a series of ready-made clothes before the fashion show starts tomorrow night?
And this series of ready-to-wear clothes must be more creative than the one stolen by George, otherwise it will be difficult for them to swallow their anger!
“It feels so difficult…” Zhao Shuwan sighed. Although she didn’t want to convey negative emotions, she had to admit the fact: “Even if we can really design it, it’s difficult to make all the finished products in such a short time.”
Designing, pattern making, cutting, production…all take time!
And even if they had enough time, they wouldn't have that much funding.
"Don't worry about the funding issue for now." Wen Si said, "Your clothing industry has been developing for so many years, and no one has kept up with the times and researched some technology and hard work?"
"For example, one-piece molding, pattern-free fabrics, and rapid garment-making methods?"
Reminded by her wild and divergent thinking, Zhao Shuwan actually thought of a new type of clothing material that had just come out not long ago.
The clothing material is said to be clothing material, but in fact it is bottles of colorful liquid packed in compressed cans.
Just spray it on the model and the liquid will turn into fabric that fits the body, allowing the designer to cut and shape it into any shape she wants on the spot.
In a sense, it can also be regarded as a method of quick clothing production.
So the two people's thinking direction shifted from how to quickly produce the finished clothes to how to get this new type of clothing material before the fashion show starts tomorrow night.
Because this clothing material only appeared briefly on a certain designer's catwalk and has not yet been put into mass production.
It is almost impossible to buy it through formal channels.
Wen Si called several friends in the fashion circle, but got negative answers from all of them.
Until one of her friends laughed at her: "Aren't you begging for food while you have mountains of gold and silver?"
Wen Si: “???”
"What do you mean?"
"You've been having a hot relationship with the third son of the Jiang Group on a dating show recently, so how come you didn't even know that his high-end clothing brand has been working with the studio that developed this new material?"
A word to awaken the dreamer.
After hanging up the phone with his friend, Wen Si searched the Internet for the name of this studio that specializes in developing new clothing fabrics.
