Chapter Forty-Three: Ending on Bad Terms (1/2)

These were not confidential matters. If Xiao Yu had put in effort to find out, he could easily obtain such information.

During this period in his previous life, he had been slaving away to get the drawings out and submit them before the deadline. He simply did not have any extra time to go through gossipy news about the competition. In addition to that, the company forbade him from entering the individual competition privately, which was why he did not have the opportunity to investigate further and thus missed out on this important information.

Xiao Yu did not expect that under such freakish circumstances, he could receive the things that he had once missed out on.

Xiao Yu had to admit that he was once again thoroughly moved by Yan Jin’s actions.

Perhaps for Yan Jin, these were just things he did with little effort. But for Xiao Yu, this information was like the daybreak light at dawn that explained why he had put in so much effort in his previous life to enter this competition.

It was like a beam of light that shone down on a human (hamster) who had lost his way inside the deep endless sea that had no boundaries. As he looked up, the surface of the sea was finally within reach.

At this moment, Xiao Yu felt that it was like a mysterious and inexorable fate, an inevitable destiny.

As if Yan Jin had not stirred up enough emotions, he sent another message.

[Grey-white SS]: I’m not sure if you had experience participating in such individual competitions before. YL does have one designer that could provide you with some suggestions. Would you like to visit YL to meet him?

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: I don’t want to be in contact with too many people. It’s okay.

[Grey-white SS]: Okay then. (disappointed.jpg)

Grey-white SS sent a document.

[Grey-white SS]: The experience summary.

As far as Xiao Yu was concerned, Yan Jin’s thoughts were obvious – To spare no pains nor efforts to lure him out. It was a pity that Xiao Yu was determined to reject him at all cost, and hence there was nothing to be done for Chairman Yan.

Opening the document, there were ten suggestions. The first one was how to attract attention during the voting selection.

A simple yet extremely critical suggestion.

Xiao Yu quickly turned to look at the ceiling, forcing his disobedient tears back.

I cannot cry, that’s too embarrassing.

[Grey-white SS]: I can’t help much for the other areas. A chairperson’s job is very busy after all. (shrughands.jpg)

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: It’s more than enough. Thank you, I mean it.

[Grey-white SS]: If you really get a placement at the exhibition booth, all these things aren’t even worth being called investments.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: Hold on, I thought you didn’t have any confidence in me two days ago?

[Grey-white SS]: We shouldn’t erase the probability of even the smallest possibility. That was learned from the previous deal.

Xiao Yu sent a gloomy emoticon.

Yan Jin was probably still observing Xiao Yu’s capabilities even at this point. Seeing how Yan Jin had sent over the information, Xiao Yu almost thought that the chairman had already changed his mind. Oh well, even though the wedding ring deal had given Yan Jin a stunning experience, that incident alone was indeed not enough to convince him.

Xiao Yu understood Yan Jin’s thoughts, which was why he could only try out other methods for this Autumn Release Conference.

According to the level of trust Yan Jin had in him now, if he asked to be involved in YL’s exhibition works – impossible. Xiao Yu did participate in the previous Autumn Release Conference, and he knew how terrifying the competitive exhibition work was. The internal fight within the company was tough enough; how could they leave it to an outsider like Xiao Yu?

Xiao Yu didn’t even sign any contracts with Yan Jin. He was considered to be a type of informal temporary staff.

With that in mind, Xiao Yu’s intent to ask more about the amount of exhibition works was extinguished.

No matter how many there were, there would not be a chance for him.

However, even if he could not interfere with YL’s exhibition work, it was not like he did not have other ways to go about it.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: Oh right, if I really earned an exhibition booth that had a better placing than YL’s corporate work, you would buy it, right?

[Grey-white SS]: Of course. At that time, it will become a seller’s market. It’s more worrying whether or not those designers will sell their booths.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: My thoughts are as such. Let’s not buy or sell. We’ll exchange booths.

[Grey-white SS]: To exchange booths with YL’s corporate work booth? If it’s a better display position… I’m sorry, I don’t get the meaning behind it.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: If we don’t exchange, then won’t you guys have two exhibition booths? The extra one will be useless, won’t it?

[Grey-white SS]: You won’t have to worry about that. Naturally, there are other corporations that have lower placings that would want them.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: I don’t care. If you’re not exchanging, then I won’t sell it.

[Grey-white SS]: Then wait until you win it and we’ll parade our wealth. (bye.jpg)

Xiao Yu was speechless. It was true that he could not win over Yan Jin when it came to being unreasonable.

His motive for this request was indeed to throw people off his trail. But no matter what, he had to give Yan Jin a precaution and parade his wealth when the time came.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: I’m serious. What if I must exchange the exhibition booth?

[Grey-white SS]: Why do you need the exhibition booth?

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: To display an exhibit? What else?

[Grey-white SS]: Can I once again question your identity?

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: You’re going too far.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: I’m doing this because I don’t want to take up YL’s employee quota. Even if I’m putting forth my own exhibit, I would name all of my drawings under YL. You’ve taken more than enough advantage of me, so don’t push your luck.

[Grey-white SS]: How are the preparations for your exhibition work? What about the materials? High-quality imitations?

Xiao Yu felt a little guilty, but he was not to be outdone.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: Weren’t there 3D effects? Even if I can’t get the actual product out, the hologram would work too.

[Grey-white SS]: Unheard of. I’m impressed.

[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: bye.jpg

Xiao Yu, who was on the verge of exploding from his rage, ended the conversation with Yan Jin and switched off his QQ.

Hn. You look down on me now? I’ll make you kneel and beg me at the Autumn Release Conference.
