Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Ironically, There Is a Comparisoni

Therefore, everyone agreed to let him review the designs alone.
Originally, Dongfang Yu could have let someone else review the designs, but he always valued the designers in the company greatly. Choosing to review the designs himself was a mark of respect to every designer.
Only that way could everyone’s enthusiasm and potential be ignited, allowing every designer in the company to be filled with hope for the future.
Because once a design is liked by him, it means that the designer will be given priority development.
In front of Dongfang Yu was a computer.
He personally scrolled the mouse, clicking open each design.
The designs on the projector kept updating. The designers whose designs were disregarded felt disappointed, yet no one left.
They were waiting to learn more from the other designers.
The annual design contest was actually a rare learning opportunity.
Finally, one of the designs was favored by Dongfang Yu. He turned his head to look at Ji Chuan and said, “This one.”
“Yes.” Understanding the cue, Ji Chuan nodded, stood up and said, “Zhao Gang, please come up on stage and talk about your design concept.”
The named designer was very excited. He head held high, he took to the stage to explain how he came up with his design…
Lin Xinxin listened very carefully beneath the stage, feeling somewhat disdainful at the same time.
The design of this person wasn’t good enough, it was far inferior to hers.
Next, Dongfang Yu favored a few more designs.
But Lin Xinxin felt none of them were as good as hers.
The more she watched, the more confident she became that the grand prize this year would definitely be hers, barring any surprises.
However, ‘Dongfang’, being such a large company, still had many excellent designers.
Some had unique ideas, some had deep foundations. In any case, everyone had their own strengths.
Dongfang Yu did not demand perfection in their designs, as long as it caught his eye, he would feel satisfied.
Naturally, he felt more satisfied with particularly good designs.
Finally, it was Lin Xinxin’s turn for her design to be reviewed!
Dongfang Yu was somewhat surprised at first glance.
Although Lin Xinxin was young and less experienced, her design style was unique and her basics were solid. She had a lot of talent in design, which was very rare.
The reason she won the grand prize last year was because her design was very unique, breaking the long-standing conventions of ‘Dongfang’.
What Dongfang Yu needed were designers with unique ideas like her.
That’s why he exceptionally awarded her the grand prize.
Sure enough, many people started to innovate in this year’s design contest.
Lin Xinxin also innovated this year. She understood very well that her biggest winning tool was uniqueness.
Therefore, she spent most of her efforts on this aspect.
Her piece of work this time was indeed eye-catching, setting it apart from others.
Unfortunately, having become aware of Hai Xiaotang’s distinct thought process, Dongfang Yu didn’t find Lin Xinxin’s work as fascinating anymore.
The uniqueness of Hai Xiaotang’s designs was very clean and pure, like the out-of-the-box designs of a child.
However, the uniqueness in Lin Xinxin’s designs implied a lot of deliberate effort.
She had intentionally spent a lot of effort on uniqueness which resulted in it lacking authenticity.
Although it was still good, when compared with Hai Xiaotang’s, it somewhat paled in comparison.
If he had not seen Hai Xiaotang’s work, he would have been more satisfied with Lin Xinxin’s work. But having a comparison made him notice more problems.
Even, Lin Xinxin’s design was inferior to that of an aged designer in the company whose thinking was a bit outdated..
