She had only heard of failed pitches, and rarely encountered a pitch that had been abandoned before the pitch was even completed.
"What happened?"
Gu Mo asked the question in his mind, and Dabao, who had been standing by silently, explained: "Because there are five teams competing with us this time, and they are ranked first in B-level every year. The gap between them and our team is particularly big. , the result of this draft is the same, they will definitely win in the end, in this case, we might as well not waste energy."
Gu Mo didn't know how to answer these words. He thought for a while before speaking, "How about I draw a design and then compete with them?"
If other people in the team want to take advantage of her, they can't take others with them. After all, they have to respect their wishes. Anyway, she is used to playing in individual competitions and now she is just using the reputation of the team.
"Hey, Sister Hua, this new member of your family has such a loud voice!"
I don't know why, but the door that was obviously tightly closed was opened a crack.
Several heads were squeezed out from the gap in an instant, and the leader seemed to be someone he had seen in the conference room before.
When Sister Hua saw that she was the leader of the fifth group, her expression was a bit ugly, but she still smiled and said, "Oh, the new guy doesn't know much about our situation, so he just talked casually."
"That's true. Who among the newcomers knew that they would be in such a group, right? Our team is bound to win this competition."
The leader of the fifth group shouted arrogantly at the door, "Sister Hua, your team really don't plan to participate? Are you just going to give up the project? Everyone will get a lot of money from this project."
"Oh, you still don't know our situation, we do..."
"We really want to participate, so I won't bother you."
Xiaoyan, Dabao and Sister Hua instantly looked at her in shock, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Sister Hua quickly went to hold Gu Mo's hand and said carefully: "Gu Mo, did you say the wrong thing? Don't show off. If the pitch fails, we will be the ones who are embarrassed."
Gu Mo turned around and gave Sister Hua a reassuring look, then turned to the leader of the fifth group at the door and said, "As a newcomer, I have to give Sister Hua a meeting gift when I first join the third group, so I decided to give it to this pitch. I have participated. As for whether other people in the team want to participate, that is their business."
Several members of the team at the door burst into laughter.
"Oh my god, did you listen to what she said? She said that she wanted to participate in the draft competition alone. It's funny. It took only eight of our team four or five days to get the final drawings for this competition. She actually wanted to One person is going to beat our entire team?”
"Oh, don't say such things. Newbies always have a higher heart than a piece of paper."
"Who doesn't know how to talk? Don't embarrass Sister Hua again. Sister Hua, please take care of your new family members. They really dare to say anything."
Sister Hua was a little embarrassed and wanted to pull Gu Mo's sleeve, but Gu Mo was unmoved and replied directly, "Then we'll see."
Haha, with her ability, let alone their team, it would be more than enough to beat even a top A-level team upstairs.
"Okay, we're just waiting to see you make a fool of yourself, Sister Hua, don't blame us for not warning you."
The team leader at the door smiled cheerfully, "We won't disturb your sweet dreams for now. See you next week for the draft!"
People from the fifth group came and went in a hurry. The iron door was slammed shut, leaving only the four people in the design room staring at each other.
Xiaoyan was the first to speak, "Sister Gu Mo, I know you can't stand their looks, but our team's strength is really only this. We've compared drafts before, and the results are the same every time."
Gu Mo turned to Xiaoyan and said softly, "You can't just avoid it every time you fail. You should think about the reasons for the failure."
"But don't feel any pressure this time. You should do whatever you want. Originally, I said these words to the fifth group personally. I should be responsible for the results and the process alone."
Whether to lie down or curl up is everyone's choice. She has no right to force others to curl up with her.
For the Hongshan Exhibition, she had to prepare to show off her talents in Menglin.
Dabao glanced at the person in front of him, thought for a moment, then picked up his phone and continued playing games.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Sister Hua quickly smoothed things over, "Since Gu Mo wants to pitch the manuscript, let's go and pitch it. If you have anything to do, just tell me and I'll accompany you!"
He probably said this out of his duty as a team leader.
Gu Mo actually had no intention of asking for help. He was used to working alone, so he was fine alone.
"It's okay, Sister Hua, just do whatever you have to do. Please show me Party A's requirements."
Xiao Yan, who had been standing behind Gu Mo, hurriedly came up with eyes dripping, "I'm free anyway. Sister Gu Mo, let me go with you. This is Party A's condition. And this is a manuscript I drew in private. Otherwise Give you a reference?"
She was a little surprised that someone wanted to come with her.
She took two documents and a manuscript and found a corner to sit down with Xiaoyan. She briefly glanced at Party A's father's request. In fact, he just wanted a wedding dress with a red background. She didn't have much request. , designers have a lot of room for freedom of expression.
Then she took another look at the design draft that Xiaoyan handed over, and she had to say that she was still a little surprised.
The lines of this manuscript are smooth and the colors are just right, but it lacks a little sense of design. However, this should be a common problem for newcomers. In the final analysis, it is too little experience and too few ideas, but these can be cultivated.
"Xiaoyan, how long have you been in this industry?"
She asked casually and in a normal tone, Xiaoyan naturally chatted, "Sister Gu Mo, Dabao and I are both fresh graduates who just graduated from school."
"Graduates?"
Gu Mo was a little surprised. Xiaoyan's level was definitely among the best in her age group among fresh graduates. She quickly asked, "Which school did you graduate from?"
"I am Harlan University in country C."
Harlan University? The design major of this school is among the best in the world, on par with the Hertz School where she went abroad as an exchange student.
She could suddenly understand why fresh graduates could also enter Class B. This academic qualification had completely eliminated a large number of people.
For some reason, she suddenly developed a cherishing mentality. Such a good Miao Miao couldn't be killed just like that!
She quickly took out the colored pens from the cabinet at the back, "Xiaoyan, do you mind if I help you make some modifications to your design draft?"
"Of course I don't mind. Sister Gu Mo, you can just draw this manuscript on a whim. I didn't plan to compete."
"No, your manuscript can definitely be submitted for competition."
Sister Hua had just finished making a phone call at the window. When she turned around, she saw Gu Mo and Xiao Yan sitting in the corner discussing something, so she poked her head to look.
"Gu Mo, are you planning to compare Xiaoyan's manuscript?"
Gu Mo turned Xiaoyan's manuscript in one direction and handed it to Sister Hua, and then made a few random sketches on the paper in front of Sister Hua and Xiaoyan.
However, with just these few strokes, Sister Hua's eyes widened in shock. With these few strokes, the red dress, which originally did not have much sense of design, was instantly elevated to a higher level.
"this……"
"Sister Hua, I think Xiao Yan's design draft is pretty good, but it lacks a little bit of ideas. But this is normal. She just graduated and doesn't read much, doesn't think much, and doesn't draw much."
She frowned slightly and looked at Xiaoyan next to her, "Xiaoyan, will you feel a little inspired by the few strokes I've done here?"
"The skirt you draw is not just something floating on the paper, but a living skirt that will be worn on the body in the end."
Xiaoyan looked at the design draft in front of him and felt that his previous draft suddenly became vivid, "Sister Gu Mo, I seem to have a little feeling!"
"Since you feel it, then revise it again. How about we use your manuscript for this pitch?"
After saying this, Xiaoyan, who had a smile on his face just now, muttered worriedly: "No, Sister Gu Mo, no matter how much I revise my manuscript, it will definitely not be as good as those in the fifth group. They can win the project every time." They are all ranked first in the whole class, how can I do this manuscript..."
Gu Mo raised his head and met Sister Hua's eyes. Sister Hua immediately understood what she meant, "It's okay, Xiaoyan. Anyway, we haven't won before, so go ahead with confidence. The worst you can do is lose once."
Gu Mo held her forehead, this is not what she wanted to say!
"When I said it was okay, it must be okay. She raised her eyes with a smile and met Xiaoyan and Sister Hua's eyes. I have opened my mouth before."
Sister Hua seemed to be affected by Gu Mo's emotions and followed excitedly, "Xiaoyan, I will help you follow up on your manuscript. Although my sister Hua did not graduate from a prestigious school, she has been working in this industry for so many years. I understand a lot of things!”
"Okay, thank you sister!"
Originally I was just painting casually, but I didn't expect that I would have to participate in a draft competition in the end. Xiaoyan felt happy and worried at the same time.
The hand holding the brush kept exerting force, and finally nodded sharply, "Sister Hua, don't worry, I will try my best to revise the draft."
Then she asked Gu Mo cautiously, "Teacher Gu Mo, did you study design before? I don't think you are a complete novice."
Xiaoyan turned his head and stared at Gu Mo. Sister Hua also wanted to know the answer to this question.
She could feel from Gu Mo's few strokes that the person in front of her was definitely not a design novice.
"Oh, I majored in design at University A, and then I went abroad as an exchange student during my junior year."
"Design major from University A!?"
Xiaoyan and Sister Hua both stared at Gu Mo as if they were monsters.
University A is a school that only the top scorers and top scorers in the province can enter, let alone a popular major such as design, but only the top academics among the top can enter!
The popular fried chicken model in the entertainment industry is actually a top student in the design major of A University! ?
