Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She knew that now was not the time to panic and she had to find a solution to the problem quickly.

"Teacher Zhongshan, Sister Tang Ran, what do you think we should do?" Zhou Wanwan asked, her eyes full of anticipation.

Teacher Zhongshan pondered for a moment and said slowly: "First, we need to understand the specific reasons why the partner canceled the cooperation. Wanwan, can you contact the person in charge of the partner to see if you can get a chance for an interview?"

Zhou Wanwan nodded: "I'll give it a try."

Tang Ran added: "At the same time, we have to be prepared for both situations. If the partner is really irreparable, we need to find a new partner as soon as possible. Wanwan, you can contact the brands that were interested in cooperating before to see if they are still interested."

Qianqian said anxiously, "But time is so tight, will we make it in time?"

Teacher Zhongshan comforted her, "Although time is tight, we can't give up. Wanwan, you contact the partners first. Tang Ran and I will help you sort out a list of other potential partners."

Zhou Wanwan nodded, immediately picked up her phone, and called the person in charge of the partner. After the phone rang a few times, the other party picked up.

"Hello, I'm Zhou Wanwan, the designer of the 'Blue and White Porcelain' project." Zhou Wanwan tried her best to keep her voice calm.

"Oh, what's the matter?" The other party's voice sounded a little cold.

"It's like this, I heard that our cooperation project was cancelled, and I want to know the specific reasons." Zhou Wanwan asked cautiously.

The other party was silent for a while, as if hesitating whether to reveal more information. Finally, he sighed and said: "I don't know the specific reason. It's just that the company's top management suddenly decided to cancel the cooperation, saying that the design was not innovative enough and did not fit the brand image."

Zhou Wanwan's heart sank, but she still insisted, "Can you help me get a chance for an interview? I want to personally explain our design concept to the senior management."

The other party hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Okay, I'll try, but it may not succeed."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wanwan felt even more depressed. She knew that this interview opportunity was very valuable, and if she couldn't convince the other party, the entire project might really fail.

At this moment, Mr. Zhongshan came over and handed her a list: "Wanwan, this is the list of potential partners we have compiled. See if there is any suitable one."

Zhou Wanwan took the list and looked through it carefully. Several brands on the list had expressed interest in her before, but she felt that the conditions of the partner were better at that time, so she did not make further contact.

"Teacher Zhongshan, I think these brands are worth a try." Zhou Wanwan said, pointing to several names on the list.

Mr. Zhongshan nodded and said, "Okay, then you should contact them as soon as possible to see if they are still interested."

Just as Zhou Wanwan was about to make a call, the door of the studio was pushed open again and a familiar figure walked in.

"Wanwan, I heard that you are in trouble?" The person who came was another good friend of Zhou Wanwan, Li Ming.

Zhou Wanwan looked at Li Ming in surprise: "Li Ming, why are you here?"

Li Ming smiled and said, "I heard you were in trouble, so I came over to see if I could help."

Zhou Wanwan felt warm in her heart and said gratefully, "Thank you, Li Ming. We are indeed facing some difficulties now. Our partner suddenly cancelled the cooperation."

Li Ming frowned: "How could this happen?

"Hello, is this Zhou Wanwan? It's me, Zhongshan." Teacher Zhongshan's voice sounded on the other end of the phone.

"Teacher Zhongshan, what's wrong?" Zhou Wanwan's heartbeat quickened.

"I just discussed it with Tang Ran, and I feel that we shouldn't just sit and wait for our partners to give an answer. We need to take the initiative and understand their real thoughts. Can you find a way to make an appointment with their person in charge, preferably to talk in person?" Teacher Zhongshan said in a firm tone.

Zhou Wanwan thought for a moment and then responded, "Okay, Mr. Zhongshan, I will try my best."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wanwan sighed deeply. She knew that this task was extremely difficult, but she had no choice but to bite the bullet and try.

She picked up the phone and dialed the number of the person in charge of the partner again. The other end of the phone answered the phone and still sounded a little cold.

"Zhou Wanwan, we have already made the decision. There is no need to talk anymore." The person in charge of the cooperation party spoke in a firm tone.

Zhou Wanwan's heart sank, but she still gritted her teeth and asked, "Can you tell me the specific reason? We have always cooperated happily."

The other party was silent for a while, and finally said: "Okay, you wait for us at the Cuiyuan Cafe at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Zhou Wanwan blurted out in surprise: "Really? Thank you so much!"

The other party was also a little surprised: "Are you really so persistent in this project?"

Zhou Wanwan answered firmly: "Yes, this project is very important to us and we hope to continue our cooperation."

The next afternoon, Zhou Wanwan arrived at the Cuiyuan Cafe on time. She looked out the window, her heart full of anticipation and nervousness.

After a while, the person in charge of the partner walked into the coffee shop. Zhou Wanwan immediately stood up and greeted him with a smile.

"Hello, I'm Zhou Wanwan." She extended her hand, trying to give the other person a good first impression.

The other party also responded with a smile: "Hello, I am Mr. Li."

The two sat down, and Zhou Wanwan asked directly: "Mr. Li, can you tell me the specific reason why the cooperation was cancelled?"

Mr. Li sighed and said, "You are a very talented designer and we admire your work very much. But you know, this project is too risky for us and we cannot afford it."

Zhou Wanwan's heart sank, but she still asked, "Is it possible to reduce the risk, or can we find a solution together?"

Mr. Li was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Well, if you can come up with a solution that satisfies us within a week, we can reconsider it."

Zhou Wanwan's heart was filled with hope. She bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li. I will do my best."

Zhou Wanwan felt much better after leaving the cafe. She knew that although time was tight, she still had a chance to save the project.

She immediately called together her team members and began to research solutions. After everyone put their heads together, they finally came up with a complete solution at the last minute.

A week later, Zhou Wanwan brought Fang An to meet Mr. Li again. Mr. Li read the proposal carefully and finally nodded: "Zhou, your proposal is excellent. We are willing to reconsider cooperation."

The heavy stone in Zhou Wanwan's heart finally fell to the ground. She took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li. We will work hard.
