She doesn't want to pretend anymore

"This trade fair only involves a few provinces and cities in the north, so it can't be considered a national event."

Yue Qingwan knew what she was thinking and explained with a smile: "If it is a national jewelry exhibition, it will be held every three years, in line with international standards. It is a grand event and also a preparation for the international jewelry exhibition."

“Only the top three domestic companies are eligible to get a spot at the international jewelry fair.”

"However, ours is a small trade fair, held by the North itself, and is commercial in nature."

Manshu understood instantly.

It’s all for the purpose of making money, building up the business’s reputation, and achieving mutual benefit.

"Also, the north is not as good as the south. The south is close to Yunnan Province and Yangcheng, the jade wholesale markets, so the companies there tend to develop better than those in the north."

"There are the southern ones, such as your jewelry company, the Zhou family in Yangcheng, and the ones in Yun Province... With these companies, the competitiveness of the northern ones will be greatly reduced."

"So, the North has come up with this method to reap the benefits?" Manshu blinked.

I admire these businessmen.

Since we can’t compete, let’s compete internally first.

This is indeed a good idea.

"Of the three international places, basically two were chosen from the South and one from the North. One year, there was no one from the North."

Since she entered the jewelry industry, Yue Qingwan naturally collected a lot of knowledge about this area.

"Then the time for this trade fair is still a bit tight."

It was the eve of National Day, and Manshu suspected that she was still being detained in school for military training.

"Just ask for leave in advance. This is our official business. If your university hears that you are starting your own business, they will probably agree to your leave."

Yue Qingwan thought Manshu was just worried that the school would not let him out.

Manshu shook his head: "Not only that, if we want to participate, we have to let Master Feng create a unique set of jewelry for us. Also, should we choose the designer's work, or mine?"

"I'm not sure."

Manshu used to be quite confident, but if he had to compete with other companies, he would inevitably not be so confident.

"Why not? We can organize a jewelry design competition at your university."

"You take the lead and organize a youth jewelry design competition to select some emerging designers and bring them into our studio."

"By the time……"

"Aunt," Manshu interrupted her, "Don't you see, there are only two months left at most. Even if I plan one, it will be too late."

Yue Qingwan was stunned and slapped her forehead: "Look at me, I just got pregnant and I'm stupid."

"It's too late, but that won't stop us from recruiting talent and preparing for the national trade fair."

"Don't you want Qingyan to attend the International Jewelry Fair with Yan?"

Yue Qingwan winked at Manshu.

Manshu responded: "Then Third Uncle and I will definitely join forces and aim at the international venue!"

"Yes, you are ambitious!"

Yue Qingwan patted her shoulder.

"So, let's just practice this time. If your design is not good enough, there is another designer in the studio."

"Actually, I already have a set of jewelry that I've set my eyes on, and I'm going to use it at the trade show."

"Hmm?" Manshu didn't expect that Yue Qingwan had already made a decision.

"Have you forgotten that you designed a set yourself?"

Manshu scratched his forehead: "Is that the one?"

It was called Nirvana, and she designed it for herself.

All the jade was provided by her personally, and it was precisely because she had good materials that impressed Master Ma.
