At that time, Lisa was just jealous.

She is jealous of Xia Xiaolan's "talent" and the other party's contacts.

If it wasn't for the relationship, how could two customers come to the door together and strive to let Xia Xiaolan accept the entrustment?

Of course, Lisa was also angry.

At the later stage of the theater renovation project, Mrs. Wilson seems to have fallen out with Xia Xiaolan, but Xia Xiaolan has left GMP. Mrs. Wilson has made trouble with the office several times and embarrassed Lisa at the scene. Lisa thinks she has suffered a lot of grievances.

She has her own contribution.

She suffered injustice.

But can't enjoy glory?

This is the hidden rule of the architect industry, who is the main designer and who enjoys glory.

People will say that so and so's award-winning works are the works of so and so's architects and the works of so and so's firm. When architects receive the award, they can thank the team at most... Just like those Hollywood stars standing on the podium and saying thank the brokerage company and thank the broker is a routine.

Lisa was jealous.

However, there was nothing she could do.

Watching GMP partner Kissinger send the theater project to apply for the "AIA supernova architect" award, the jealousy reached its peak.

The renovation of the theater is really great.

After the opening, the audience also affirmed this.

Even the picky Mrs. Wilson shut up when she saw the popularity of the theater after it reopened.

If Xia Xiaolan wins the AIA supernova award, she will undoubtedly become popular in the international architecture circle... She has not even completed her undergraduate studies and is not a real architect!

Women are neglected in this industry.

Lisa thinks her professional experience can explain this problem. She can't stand out in GMP and get more opportunities. Isn't it because she is a female architect?

Also a female architect, she suffered a lot of pressure.

Why is Xia Xiaolan a smooth road?

It's not fair

Lisa didn't expect that as the vice chairman of AIA's jury, Mond Dawson actually remembered the encounter with her in the theater and questioned the declaration of GMP.

Mr. diamond believes that she is the main designer of the theater and the theater is her work.

When the AIA jury came to her to confirm the matter, looking at the encouragement in Mond's eyes, Lisa didn't know what psychology she was out of and admitted it in front of the jury!

Kissinger was naturally furious.

Lisa is not so afraid.

Because after she submitted some design drafts to AIA headquarters, Mond said she appreciated her courage and supported her rights protection actions.

"If you lose your job, you are welcome to my studio."

This gave Lisa great confidence.

Monde's studio is no worse than GMP's New York office.

Of course, she chose to resign from GMP and switch to Monde's studio.

This kind of behavior also confirmed her victim identity. Her works were almost occupied. She exposed the facts and couldn't stand in GMP. What a poor person.

What has this "poor" woman lost?

did not.

She got a better paying job.

Her name was first known to her colleagues in New York.

Although AIA kept face for the GMP firm and did not report the matter to the whole industry, Lisa received attention because there was no airtight wall in the world.

Unfortunately, she is over 28 years old and does not meet the rigid conditions of AIA supernova architect selection. Otherwise, she can still compete for this award with this work.

When Lisa got the benefit, she couldn't go back... Lisa panicked when she received the summons from the court.

Xia Xiaolan has left the United States. I didn't expect to take her to court so soon.

"What should I do, Mr. Mond?"

Lisa rushed into Mond's office and, at a loss, put the court summons on the table.

Then she saw what Monde was holding. AIA headquarters sent Xia Xiaolan's complaint letter to Monde by fax.

"Sir, I, I..."

Mund left the fax and looked at the court summons, but he was very calm:

"What do you want to say? Didn't you design the theater renovation plan? Did you deceive me? "

"No... sir, it's my work."

Lisa bit her tongue.

She doesn't even know why Mond said that to the AIA jury.

When Monde took her daughter to the theatre, Lisa told the truth in the face of Monde's compliment - it wasn't her work, it was the work of another architect in the firm.

She thought Mond had forgotten.

In front of AIA's jury, Lisa took Xia Xiaolan's design for herself.

Mund didn't expose it. She thought mund really forgot——

No, it's not. A Pritzker Architecture Award winner, a well-known architect, can remember detailed parameters. How can he forget such a thing?

Mond knew from beginning to end whose work the theater was.

It's just that he and Lisa haven't broken the problem, and the two sides cooperate very tacitly.

Mond's calmness slowly infected Lisa.

Yes, they don't need to talk about it. No matter why, Mond wants such an outcome.

Lisa raised her voice:

"Sir, it's my work!"

Mond finally smiled, "yes, the AIA jury determined that it was your work. Some people want to overturn the determination of AIA. How can AIA agree? This is just a very common copyright lawsuit. You should have confidence in yourself. "

Lisa took a deep breath and lowered her voice:

"There is a very important witness. He was another intern involved in the project at that time, Matthew Carlton, also from the school of architecture of Cornell University. I know he really wants to stay in GMP firm."

Mond looked up. "But he didn't stay, did he? In the same group of interns, one will be particularly outstanding, while the others will become a foil. He is also an intern. If others can preside over a project, he can only start. Do you think he will be jealous? Any classmate friendship is false. In the face of interests, someone will always make a smart choice. You are, and Matthew will be. "

"You want him to come to the studio -"

Lisa whispered.

That's one way.

What's the difference between going to Mond Dawson's studio and going to GMP?

GMP firm has many mature architects. Matthew is a newcomer. I don't know how long it will take to get ahead.

Monde's personal studio is different.

If Mond were willing to give Matthew more opportunities, Matthew's process of showing his head would be much shorter.

Let's put it this way. GMP can apply to Xia Xiaolan for this year's AIA supernova architect selection. If Monde is willing to help Matthew, Matthew can also become the finalist of "AA supernova architect" next year——

Mond dropped his summons:

"No, he can go somewhere else. Young people should think more about their own future. If others can afford a lawyer and a partner of GMP can stand out for her, what does he have? "
