Chapter 86: Worthless
Avril crossed her right leg over her left leg for the third time, her impatience almost spilling out of her eyes.
She originally had no opinion about Li Xinlan.
Her passion for jewelry design is evident to all.
But this doesn't mean Avril can tolerate her praising several soulless works to the sky.
There is a saying that goes, wasting time is wasting life.
Avril felt that her life was really being consumed by these boring people.
She endured it again and again, and in the end she didn't even remember how many times she had crossed her legs, and the explanation on the stage finally ended.
The moment Li Xinlan finished speaking, she let out a long breath.
The sound of sighs was particularly loud in the conference room.
Li Xinlan put down the pen in her hand somewhat embarrassedly and looked at Ms. Vanessa cautiously.
Vanessa sat there in silence, not saying anything.
Seeing that the atmosphere seemed a little off, Yu Deyan took the initiative to speak: "Ms. Vanessa, what do you think of our Yu's Jewelry designs? If you can give us some advice, that would be great, hahaha."
Yu Deyan also felt that Vanessa and Avril's attitudes were a little strange, but when he thought about it, it seemed that those industry masters all had bad tempers.
Moreover, the people of Country A have always been arrogant and look down on people from other countries, so he can understand that their attitude is a bit bad.
As long as they can bring benefits to the Yu family in the end, Yu Deyan will not take it to heart.
When Ms. Vanessa heard Yu Deyan's words, the corners of her eyebrows raised, and her expression finally changed slightly.
"Mr. Yu, please forgive me for being blunt, but your company's work can only be described as mediocre. It's a waste of time to look at it any more. It's dull, boring, and soulless. It's such a failure!"
Vanessa's international popularity means she doesn't have to worry about what anyone thinks.
And from her previous refusal to cooperate with major jewelry brands, we can see that she has a very stubborn temper and will not easily bow to others.
She spent three minutes reviewing all of Yu's design works from beginning to end, without even giving Li Xinlan a chance to explain.
The attitudes of Yu Deyan and others also changed from shock, to panic, and finally to anger.
In Vanessa's words, the works of the Yu family can only be described as worthless and do not have a single advantage.
If there is one thing I must say, it would only be that it is pleasing to the eye.
The reason why we say this is that these design works have no novelty and are completely evolved based on other design works, so they are pleasing to the eye and even familiar.
After expressing her opinion, Ms. Vanessa stood up and said with a regretful tone: "I thought China would bring me surprises, but now it seems that I thought too much.
I think we should not waste each other's time, Mr. Yu, thank you for your hospitality, goodbye."
Vanessa said, and walked out the door decisively.
Avril stood up hurriedly, stepped on her high heels, and couldn't wait to leave with her.
The people in the conference room were stunned for a moment, then hurriedly chased after him.
Li Xinlan walked the fastest. She trotted beside Vanessa and said in a pleading tone, "Ms. Vanessa, although our Yu's works are not top-notch, they also incorporate the hard work of all our designers. If you think there are any shortcomings, can you point them out for us? We will definitely correct them with all our heart."
After becoming the director of Yu’s Jewelry Design, Li Xinlan had not spoken to others in such a humble manner for a long time.
When she first heard Vanessa's criticism, she felt a surge of shame and anger in her chest.
Seeing Vanessa getting ready to leave, she realized that she couldn't just let her go like that, and at least she had to find out from her what could be improved.
"Ms. Vanessa, please stop and talk to us."
"Ms. Vanessa, I really like you."
"Ms. Vanessa, please stop."
Outside the conference room is the design department's office.
The scene of Li Xinlan chasing after Vanessa also caught the eyes of all designers.
They stood up one after another, looking at the scene with dejected expressions, as if they had been sentenced to death.
Vanessa did not stop because of Li Xinlan's pleading until they reached the elevator.
Avril had already pressed the elevator button, but the elevator was still on another floor. Li Xinlan finally seized the opportunity to stop Vanessa, her voice choking: "Ms. Vanessa, are you here just to attack us? Don't you think you're going too far?"
"Oh my God, I just can't stand it anymore!"
Avril had had enough.
She stood up and stared at Li Xinlan with cold eyes, "Do you know why I hate Huaguo? It's because you always like to speak in such a self-righteous tone.
Do you know how valuable Ms. Vanessa's time is? It is an honor for you that she can come here to look at your design drawings. After receiving her evaluation, why don't you reflect on yourself, but stop Ms. Vanessa and try to get more positive feedback from her.
Dear, remember, she doesn't owe you anything. Look for the reasons in yourself instead of blaming others.
When you are a minister and comment on other people's work, do you also point out their mistakes one by one? I guess you don't."
Avril spoke quickly and urgently.
It took Li Xinlan a while to react in her mind before she could understand what she said.
Then her face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The elevator arrived at this moment, and Avril unceremoniously pushed aside Li Xinlan and let Vanessa enter the elevator.
Yu Deyan and others rushed over, but could only watch the elevator door close and Vanessa disappear from their sight.
"Minister Li, what are you doing? Why don't you stop Ms. Vanessa!"
Yu Deyan opened his mouth and started scolding.
His expression was not much better than Li Xinlan's.
After all, Vanessa had just criticized Yu's design work harshly, so it would be strange for him to be happy.
Li Xinlan seemed to be in a trance. She stood aside without saying a word, and Avril's questions kept repeating in her mind.
She felt that what the other party said was wrong, but she couldn't find a reason to refute it. In addition, Vanessa had destroyed her confidence and she had lost the ability to organize her words.
"Mr. Yu, do you want to ask the security guard to stop Ms. Vanessa downstairs?" asked the assistant.
Yu Deyan's eyebrows moved slightly.
He really couldn't bear to let Vanessa go like this.
While he was hesitating, Li Xinlan suddenly came to her senses and shouted, "No, don't stop her, let them go!"
Vanessa and Avril have both said so much that trying to keep them by force would only cause the other party to resent them.
And Vanessa's words might put Yu in an extremely embarrassing situation, so it's better to stop here.
"Go back to the meeting room!"
