Chapter 1790 - The Wen Corporations Response (1/2)

Wen Xinya immediately called Gu Yihan on the phone after watching this dramatic scene on the news.

“What is going on?”

Wen Xinya was just asking, she wasn’t suspicious or anything. She had known Teacher Gu for so many years that she naturally trusted her and her talent. She believed that Teacher Gu would never illegally copy another person’s designs.

She had made the call just to gain some clarity on the situation.

There was a silence on the other end of the phone, before Gu Yihan asked, “Do you trust me?”

Wen Xinya replied resolutely, “Of course I do.”

Gu Yihan breathed out in relief. “Lu Bingxin does have some talent, so I gave her more attention and guidance then. As for the illegal copying of the designs, I really have no idea what is going on.”

At this point, Gu Yihan felt extremely vexed. She had never treated Lu Bingxin badly while she was at the Wen Corporation. But now, not only had Lu Bingxin jumped ship to Rosy Lane, she was even maligning her.

Wen Xinya said, “I know, don’t think too much. You are innocent, there is no need for you to prove yourself. Matters of the business world have nothing to do with you. The Wen Corporation will seek justice for you.”

Wen Xinya didn’t pursue further.

Gu Yihan felt very touched as she said gratefully, “It is all thanks to the Wen Family that I have my current achievements. But I also understand that if the Wen Corporation wishes to truly develop into a world-class luxury brand, you cannot forever only rely on me. That’s why I have always wanted to groom an exceptional fashion designer for the company, and have offered more guidance toward those designers who possess more potential.”

All these years, she had existed as one of the main pillars of the Wen Corporation.

Wen Corporation’s clothing department accounted for half of the company’s sales. If she were to fall one day, a major hole would appear within the Wen Corporation and crisis would descend over the entire company.

Not only would the morale of the Wen Corporation be affected, but the very foundation of the company would also be shaken.

Wen Xinya couldn’t help feeling regretful. “It’s not easy to groom an exemplary fashion designer.”

That was the reason why she had been so studiously learning fashion design herself.

Gu Yihan started to say something but paused. Her expression darkened and she changed the subject. “I am just worried that this incident will cause quite a bit of damage to the Wen Corporation.”

“Don’t think too much. I will handle this. Don’t bother about what others think during this period. Just continue on as per normal. You don’t have to respond to any media queries. If they bother you too much, just give me a call. I will be contactable at all times.”

***

After hanging up, Wen Xinya rushed over to the Wen Corporation.

“Grandpa, Rosy Lane and Lu Bingxin have publicly accused Teacher Gu of pirating Lu Bingxin’s designs. How do you plan to handle this?”

Although she was no longer the acting Chairman, this matter concerned Teacher Gu and she had to do something. Moreover, she was still a member of the board of directors.

“I have already recalled those affected outfits and stopped their sale on the market. The public relations department has already issued a statement saying that we will investigate the matter. If we get proof that Lu Bingxin has wrongly accused Gu Yihan, we will sue her and the Li Corporation.”
