Chapter 51: Competition Chaos

On the contrary, Yu Hong was nervous seeing the lively atmosphere.

“I didn’t expect to come here to buy goods and encounter a designer competition.”

“Look, there are quite a lot of people there!”

“There’s also a guy with yellow hair! Is he a foreigner?”

She took a closer look and couldn’t help but feel disappointed, “He’s not a foreigner! I don’t know what young people are thinking these days, dyeing their hair like this…”

Xia Keqing chuckled in her heart.

In the future, there’s a special term for that, “Little Yellow Hair”.

But in this era, dyeing your hair “Little Yellow Hair” was really a sign of being very trendy.

It’s not surprising for someone in fashion.

Xuefei Clothing Factory hosted this designer competition, they specially cleared out a factory building, it was brightly decorated, crowded with people, and very lively.

Xia Keqing was also looking around, and suddenly saw a familiar figure at the entrance.

She couldn’t help but be stunned.

Why was he here?

But in a blink of an eye, the person disappeared, Xia Keqing thought she had seen wrong.

Yu Hong had already grabbed her wrist, “Let’s go, the designer seats are over there, the audience seats are also over there, let’s go quickly, that person with the megaphone will definitely shout soon.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the megaphone’s voice.

“Please come to your seats, designers!”

“Please come to your seats, designers!”

The megaphone, with its unique characteristics of the times, was very special, and the voice was also very vintage.

Anyway, it was quite loud compared to the din of the crowd.

Xia Keqing could only go over first.

Yu Hong tightly held her wrist, “Xiao Qing, I just asked around, the champion of this designer competition will get a prize of 1,000 yuan!”

Xia Keqing was surprised to hear that 1,000 yuan wasn’t a lot.

But on second thought, this was the 1980s!

The average monthly salary in mainland China in the 1980s was only a few dozen yuan.

Looking at it this way, 1,000 yuan is a huge sum of money!

“Besides the prize money, there’s also a certificate and a chance to sign with Xuefei!”

Xia Keqing suddenly realized, no wonder she found that there were quite a few designers participating in the competition, there was one with a heavy camera, taking pictures of the scene “click, click”.

There was also an old-fashioned video camera facing the contestants.

It seems that Xuefei really went all out this time.

She smelled something different.

Especially since someone was actually arguing with the “Little Yellow Hair” on the spot.

“Zhao Qi, what are you doing here? You still have the face to participate in our factory’s designer competition?”

Xia Keqing looked closely, the one called Zhao Qi was the “Little Yellow Hair” that Yu Hong saw.

Everyone’s eyes fell on him.

Only then did Xia Keqing see his face clearly, the “Little Yellow Hair” had thick eyebrows and big eyes, his features were handsome, but his expression made people dislike him.

“What’s wrong with me coming to participate in the designer competition?”

“You didn’t say I couldn’t come, or is this competition organized by you? You, Zhou Xian, don’t allow me to participate?”

Zhao Qi sneered and asked back.

Xia Keqing thought, this guy not only dyed his hair “Little Yellow Hair”, he looks like trouble, and he’s actually a troublemaker!

She watched with a sense of excitement, and people not far away were also looking at her.

Xia Keqing was always very sensitive to other people’s gazes, but when she turned her head, she didn’t see anything.

She didn’t care.

As a result, Zhao Qi and the male designer who questioned him in public started fighting!

Xia Keqing: !!

Playing so big?

The scene was instantly chaotic, Yu Hong took this opportunity to come over, “Xiao Qing, quickly go hide by me, it’s dangerous for you here!”

Xia Keqing: …

Why is it so hard to just watch the excitement?

But Aunt Hong was right, she was just here for the excitement, it’s better not to get too close, lest she get hurt.

Yu Hong was very gossipy, she immediately leaned next to Xia Keqing and said, “Do you know who Zhao Qi is?”

Before Xia Keqing could speak, Yu Hong said to herself, “He’s Xuefei’s designer!”

“The original designer!”

Her eyes lit up when she said this.

Xia Keqing quickly understood, “So he’s a very talented person!”

Yu Hong also nodded, “That’s true. But I heard that he was poached by another factory with a high salary, so Xuefei is eager to hold this designer competition, they’re trying to find a designer who’s even better than him.”

“I didn’t expect him to be so thick-skinned, he actually dared to sign up.”

Xia Keqing didn’t think so.

Xuefei, as the organizer, can decide the number of participants.

How could Zhao Qi have come in if it wasn’t for the approval of Xuefei’s management?

Thinking about it this way, Xuefei’s management is quite magnanimous.

“Why not participate?”

Yu Hong: ?

Xia Keqing “pfft” laughed, “1,000 yuan, if it were you, would you earn it?”

Yu Hong thought about it for a moment, and was suddenly stunned.

Yeah, 1,000 yuan, it’s not one yuan.

This Zhao Qi is quite flexible, it’s just that he’s so confident.

Yu Hong pushed Xia Keqing, “Xiao Qing, you have to work hard, beat that Zhao Qi.”

Xia Keqing looked at Yu Hong with a strange expression, “Aunt Hong, have you ever thought about entering the entertainment industry?”

Yu Hong was stunned, “What?”

Xia Keqing: …

“Nothing, I’m complimenting you, you have a keen sense of smell, and you’re so good at finding out information.”

Yu Hong just thought Xia Keqing was complimenting her, she chuckled, “We’re in business, we have to chat with customers from time to time, if we chat well, it can promote sales.”

“Of course, not everyone is willing to chat, you have to choose the right person!”

Xia Keqing looked at her with admiration and agreed.

For example, her, she doesn’t like boundary-less chats, but if the other person is measured, has boundaries, and is friendly, she’s also willing to chat with the store owner.

She might even buy things because of her good impression.

As they were talking, someone came over and separated Zhao Qi and the two who were fighting.

“Zhou Xian, if you have the guts, beat me with your design, what kind of skill is being aggressive?”

Zhao Qi wiped his nose, a hand full of blood, he snorted coldly, his tone was disdainful.

Zhou Xian was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, “What did you say?”

“Do you really think I’m not as good as you?”

Zhao Qi curled his lips, “Come on, let’s settle this on the competition field!”

At this time, a man with a square face came out, his face black, and said, “Okay, all of you shut up!”

He looked at Zhou Xian, who was still indignant, “Our competition is fair, just, and open, he’s a designer, as long as he’s willing to sign up, he can participate.”

Zhou Xian was obviously not convinced, “But, Factory Director!”

Xia Keqing subconsciously looked at the man with a square face.

It turned out he was the factory director of Xuefei Clothing Factory, he looked like an upright person.

The man with a square face raised his hand, interrupting Zhou Xian, “Okay, that’s it for today, if any of you want to cause trouble, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

After saying that, he didn’t even look at Zhou Xian and Zhao Qi, he turned his head and picked up the megaphone, “Today, our clothing factory welcomes this grand event, thank you leaders and media friends for taking the time to come to our factory, there was a little misunderstanding just now, please don’t take it to heart…”

…

“I declare the designer competition officially open!”

Xia Keqing was dizzy from all the talking, the “chicken soup” of this era was really thick…

Xia Keqing remembered the speeches under the national flag when she was a child, her eyes went black for a moment.

Fortunately, after waiting for half an hour, after listening to many speeches, the competition finally officially began.

Shen Jichuan, standing in the shadows, watched his fiancée’s face change repeatedly, and for the first time he found it interesting to watch someone’s facial expressions change.
