12 o'clock is lunch time.

Li Man had lunch alone.

She had no appetite and tasted nothing.

Just then, her phone rang, and it was a message from Allen.

"How was your first day at work? Did you get used to it?"

Li Man picked up the phone and said, "Well, adaptation is adaptation, but I haven't found an idea for design yet. There are so many great designers here. I feel that my skills are not enough. I may waste your good intentions."

Just as the message was sent, the phone rang.

Li Man immediately pressed the answer button.

Allen said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. No matter how good VEX is, it's just a job. Inspiration is not like tap water. Turn on the faucet and it will keep flowing. You are a Chinese, so you can think carefully and use Chinese elements. I really like your Hanfu and embroidery. You use various stitching techniques to realistically express flowers, birds, characters and scenery. It’s really amazing and magical.”

An inspiration suddenly flashed through Li Man's mind. His eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "I thought of it!"

Allen smiled and said, "Have you found an idea?"

"Well, thank you, thanks for the tip."

Allen curled his lips, "If I don't mention it, you will think of it in the future, it's just a matter of time."

He had seen her designs and knew her strength very well.

It's just that when I first arrived at a new company, I was inevitably nervous and put too much pressure on myself.

The next day, Li Man called a design draft to the team leader.

When the team leader saw her design draft, a flash of surprise flashed across his face, but in the end he just smiled and said "very good" in French.

She is a Chinese designer specially recruited by Mr. Song. She must be very talented, but I didn't expect...

The team leader twitched his lips.

She had heard that many designers in China like to plagiarize and patch things together to make them their own.

"Made in China", Made in China.

It is synonymous with copycat, cheap and inferior quality.

Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, it is simply breathtaking.

Li Man caught her expression that was half-smiling, and was startled for a moment, not knowing what her expression meant.

She didn't think much about it. Work was not a place where you could be sensitive to pretentiousness.

The team leader took Li Man's design draft and went directly to Song Chengli's office without delaying for a second.

Li Man was recruited by Director Song personally, and he was airborne.

I thought he had some extraordinary design talent, but I didn't expect that he turned out to be a plagiarist.

The copy was the work of a cutting-edge designer from China.

Why, do you think they don’t pay attention to what’s going on in the design circle of China?

Even if they don't pay attention, after all, there are not many outstanding designers in China who can do it, but this designer's work has been on the hot search some time ago, and anyone in the design circle should know about it.

Li Man thinks they are fools and VEX is fools.

Soon, Song Chengli also saw Li Man's design. He couldn't help but frown and said with a serious face, "This is really the design draft that Li Man gave you. Did you say it was drawn by her?"

The team leader nodded, "Yes, if you don't believe me, you can verify it. I will send it to you directly after I get it."

"I understand, are you the only one who knows about this?"

"Ah."

"Okay, don't tell anyone about this, I'll handle it."

Song Chengli looked at the design draft carefully. There were traces of many revisions and adjustments to the design draft. If he hadn't seen the same design in a previous hot search, he wouldn't have suspected it was plagiarism.

Song Chengli didn't understand Li Man.

He believed in Allen's vision and gave her a chance because of Allen's face.

Didn't expect things to turn out like this.

Song Chengli picked up the phone and told Allen about Li Man's plagiarism.

Allen didn't believe a word of it, "No way, she couldn't have plagiarized it. I saw her design draft and she had her own ideas."

Song Chengli said, "I'll take a photo and send it to you. If you look at it, you'll know that I didn't wrongly accuse her."

After saying that, Song Chengli sent the design draft from Li Comics and the online photo of the design that was hotly searched on Huanxing Designer to Allen.

When Allen saw it, his eyes widened in disbelief, "How could this happen? She has experienced some things and is not in a good state. It is her first day at work today and she is very stressed. I chatted with her during lunch time. I suggested that she use Chinese elements and use various embroidery stitches to realistically express flowers, birds, characters and landscapes."

"Usage and plagiarism are two completely different concepts." Song Chengli said, "Alan, I'm sorry, it seems I can only let her leave VEX. Plagiarism is taboo in design, and VEX's brand cannot be ruined."

Allen hurriedly said, "Wait a moment. You can't just label her as plagiarism. Can you let me talk to her first? It won't take much time. I will give you an answer tomorrow at the latest."

Song Chengli was a little embarrassed, but finally agreed, "Okay."

Li Man found the design idea and was so happy that he even ate an extra bowl for dinner.

She was already very thin, but she lost a lot of weight after the accident and falling into the sea.

Allen didn't know whether she was fat or thin before, but it was heartbreaking to see her so thin now that a gust of wind could blow her away.

After dinner, Allen chatted with her about work.

"I am an alumnus of your director, and I heard from him that you submitted a design draft."

"Well, I used ink gradient smudge elements, what's wrong?"

Li Man's eyes were bright and her expression was particularly vivid.

She really likes design.

Extremely passionate about the things you like.

That look in her eyes was obviously waiting for him to say something to praise her.

Allen said, "You drew this design draft yourself and did not refer to anyone else's design, right?"

Li Manwan frowned lightly, "What do you mean by this?"

"Don't get excited first," Allen said hurriedly. "Answer my question first. You'd better tell the truth. This is a major matter to determine your identity."

Li Man was confused, but he nodded heavily without hesitation, "Yes, I drew it myself. Is there anything wrong with my design? The company said I borrowed it and plagiarized it?"

"Look at this first."

Allen handed his mobile phone to Li Man. What was displayed on the screen were the two pictures Song Chengli sent her.

One is Li Man's manuscript.

One picture is the finished product displayed on the catwalk.

Li Man is a designer and can see the problem at a glance.

"I didn't plagiarize. I never saw this designer's work. I just drew my inspiration." Li Man explained, his tone a little anxious.

"Don't get excited yet. I'm not suspecting you of plagiarism. I want to say that since your design is so similar to this designer's style, is it possible that you are her?"

Allen was really afraid that she would lose control of her emotions and get angry.

Her body still needs to be nursed back to health.

At this moment, Allen's cell phone suddenly rang.

He took out his phone and glanced at the number flashing on the screen.

It was his subordinate calling.

Allen immediately pressed the answer button, "How is the matter you were asked to check?"

The other party didn't know what he said. Allen's pupils trembled and he immediately looked at Li Man.

Li Man was a little uneasy and said nervously, "What's wrong?"
