Chapter 223: Bright as Stars
As the night deepened, the lights in the office of "Time Mark" were still as bright as stars, reflecting the perseverance and determination on everyone's face. Rong Yu stood in front of the French window, looking at the city with dim lights outside, with complex emotions surging in his heart.
"Rong Yu, although we won this time, I always feel a little uneasy." Tong Luoluo's voice came from behind, with a hint of worry.
Rong Yu turned around, his eyes deep. "Yes, Luo Luo. Director Lin's failure will not let her give up. She may have a bigger chess game behind her."
Li Hao came over and patted the table. "No matter what her plot is, we at Time Mark are not pushovers. As long as we stay alert, nothing can defeat us."
"Yes, but vigilance is not just about defense, it's also about taking the initiative." Rong Yu's eyes sparkled with wisdom, "I think we should start preparing for the launch of new products next quarter and let our creativity and strength speak for themselves."
Tong Luoluo nodded, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes. "Yes, we can combine traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to create unprecedented new products and make the market excited again."
"Good idea!" Li Hao's eyes lit up, "We can also invite some well-known craftsmen to collaborate across industries to enhance our brand influence."
Rong Yu smiled slightly, his eyes full of praise. "That's settled then. Luo Luo, you will be responsible for contacting the craftsman master, Haozi, you will lead the technical team to develop new products. We want to make the name 'Time Mark' a benchmark in the industry."
In the following days, the team of "Time Imprint" seemed to be driven by an invisible force, and everyone was busy preparing for the new product launch. In the office, the sound of keyboard tapping and discussion intertwined to form a tense and energetic symphony.
However, just before the new product launch, an unexpected visitor broke the tranquility.
"Mr. Rong Yu, I'm Director Lin's assistant. She has something she wants me to pass on to you." A young woman stood in the reception area of "Time Mark" with a sealed file bag in her hand.
Rong Yu took the file bag and frowned slightly. "Director Lin? Does she have anything else to say?"
The woman shook her head, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. "I only know that there are some notes and materials she has kept over the years, which may be useful to you."
Rong Yu opened the file bag, which contained a pile of handwritten notes and a bunch of photos, recording Director Lin's research and experience in handicrafts over the years. He flipped through the materials with mixed feelings.
"What does she mean?" Tong Luoluo walked over and looked at the notes, his eyes full of confusion.
Rong Yu sighed and handed the notebook to Tong Luoluo. "Perhaps this is her way of apologizing. Although she took the wrong path, her love for crafts is real."
Li Hao also came over to take a look, frowning. "No matter what she thinks, we can't take it lightly. The new product launch is our most important task at the moment."
Rong Yu nodded, his eyes firm. "That's right, we can't let anything affect our plan. Luo Luo, sort out these materials and see if you can add some highlights to our new product launch."
The new product launch finally arrived. This time, "Time Mark" not only displayed new products, but also invited craftsmen to conduct on-site demonstrations, showing the perfect combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern design. The audience was amazed, and the media also reported on it, pushing "Time Mark" to a new height.
However, just as the press conference was coming to a successful conclusion, a sudden piece of news made the entire team fall into deep thought.
"Rong Yu, we received an anonymous email." Tong Luoluo hurried into Rong Yu's office with a printed email in her hand.
Rong Yu took the email, quickly glanced through it, and his face became solemn. "Is this... Director Lin's suicide note?"
In the email, Director Lin described in detail her mental journey of going astray and her final repentance. She said that although she tried to destroy the "Mark of Time", she always had a deep love and respect for handicrafts in her heart. Under the blow of failure, she chose to end her life.
The office was silent, and everyone was immersed in complicated emotions. Rong Yu was silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
“Whatever she did, she was part of the craft. Her passing is a loss to all of us.”
Tong Luoluo's eyes were slightly red, and her voice was a little choked. "Yes, we should remember her contribution to craftsmanship, not her mistakes."
Li Hao clenched his fists, with a hint of determination in his eyes. "We must keep moving forward, not only for 'Time Mark', but also for those who have a passion and dream for handicrafts."
Rong Yu nodded, his eyes gleaming with determination. "Yes, we want to let the light of handicrafts illuminate more people and make the world a better place because of our existence."
As night falls again, the office of "Time Mark" is still brightly lit. Team members sit together, sharing the joy of victory and discussing future plans. They know that no matter how many challenges and difficulties are waiting for them in the future, as long as they are united, nothing can stop them from moving forward.
"Rong Yu, what should we do next?" Tong Luoluo asked, with anticipation gleaming in his eyes.
Rong Yu pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly. "We should continue to promote the charm of handicrafts, while also paying attention to the healthy development of the industry. I think we can set up a handicraft development foundation to help those craftsmen who have potential but lack resources."
"Good idea!" Li Hao's eyes lit up. "We can also hold some handicraft competitions to discover more emerging designers and inject new vitality into the handicraft industry."
The team members nodded in agreement, their hearts full of longing and expectation for the future. They knew that as long as they maintained their love and persistent pursuit of craftsmanship, nothing could stop them from moving forward.
However, just as they were preparing to meet new challenges, an unexpected call broke the tranquility.
"Mr. Rong Yu, I am the president of the National Handicraft Association. We have noticed the outstanding contribution of 'Time Mark' in the field of handicrafts and would like to invite you to participate in the upcoming International Handicraft Forum as a representative." A steady voice came from the other end of the phone.
Rong Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then a happy smile appeared on his face. "It is our honor. I will definitely attend on time."
After hanging up the phone, Rong Yu looked at his team members with excitement in his eyes.
“This is a new opportunity. We want to make the name of ‘Time Mark’ leave a deep mark in the international handicraft world.”
The team members applauded and cheered. They knew that this was not only an honor, but also a recognition of their efforts over the years.
They will continue to move forward hand in hand and write the legendary chapter of “Mark of Time” with their talents and enthusiasm.
The night is getting darker, but the office of "Time Mark" is still brightly lit.
This is not only a place to work, but also a harbor for their dreams to take off.
The night is as dark as ink, gradually swallowing up the hustle and bustle of the city. In the office of "Time Mark", the eternal lamp seems to be the brightest star in the night sky, reflecting the subtle fatigue and persistence on everyone's face.
Rong Yu stood in front of the window, gazing at the world outside shrouded in the night, with all kinds of thoughts surging in his heart.
"Rong Yu, the invitation to the International Handicraft Forum is a rare opportunity for us." Tong Luoluo's voice sounded softly, with a hint of barely perceptible excitement.
Rong Yu turned around, his eyes deep as a pool. "That's right, Luo Luo. This is not only a stage to showcase the 'Mark of Time', but also a platform to promote the development of the entire handicraft industry."
Li Hao walked over and gently bumped his fist on Rong Yu's shoulder. "We must prepare well and let the world see the strength and charm of 'Time Mark'."
Rong Yu smiled slightly, his eyes gleaming with strategic light. "That's settled, Luo Luo, you will be responsible for organizing our achievements and cases, Haozi, you will prepare some speeches on the future development trends of handicrafts. We want to let the international handicraft industry feel the warmth and depth of 'Time Mark'."
In the following days, the team of "Time Mark" seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and everyone was busy for the International Handicraft Forum. In the office, in addition to the sound of keyboard tapping, there were more discussions about handicrafts, innovation, and inheritance, which intertwined to form an exciting and hopeful symphony.
However, just when this tense and energetic atmosphere reached its peak, a sudden piece of news was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
"Rong Yu, we received an urgent email from the International Handicraft Association." Tong Luoluo hurried into Rong Yu's office, holding a printed email in his hand, his face looking a little solemn.
Rong Yu took the email, quickly glanced through it, and frowned. "Is this...about the changes to the forum? They asked us to submit a detailed handicraft innovation plan in advance and make it the focus of the forum discussion?"
Tong Luoluo nodded, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes. "Yes, and time is very tight, there is only one week to prepare."
Rong Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, his tone revealing unquestionable determination. "No matter how tight the time is, we must go all out. This is not only an opportunity for 'Time Mark', but also an important moment to promote the innovation and development of handicrafts."
Team members responded one after another, knowing that this was an unprecedented challenge and also a great opportunity to demonstrate their strength and creativity. Everyone was engaged in intensive preparations, and the office was filled with a tense and energetic atmosphere.
A week later, the International Handicraft Forum was held as scheduled. Rong Yu, as the representative of "Time Mark", stood on the world stage. He was wearing a well-tailored Chinese suit, which made him particularly eye-catching.
"Dear guests, what I want to share with you today is the exploration and practice of 'Time Mark' in handicraft innovation." Rong Yu's voice was steady and powerful, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
He pressed the remote control, and a video began to play on the big screen, showing how "Time Imprint" perfectly combines traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to create new products that have both traditional charm and modern aesthetics. Every detail in the video is full of creativity and ingenuity, which amazed everyone present.
After the speech, there was warm applause. Rong Yu looked at the audience with a smile, his heart full of pride and joy. He knew that the name of "Time Mark" has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the international handicraft community.
However, just as Rong Yu was about to leave the venue, an unexpected person appeared in front of him.
“Mr. Rong Yu, I am Director Lin’s husband. I would like to apologize to you on her behalf and thank you for your dedication and love for handicrafts.” A middle-aged man stood in front of Rong Yu, with a sincere light in his eyes.
Rong Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stretched out his hand. "Your wife was an excellent craftsman. Her death is a loss for all of us. I will continue to promote the charm of handicrafts and let more people feel its beauty."
The middle-aged man held Rong Yu's hand tightly, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes. "Thank you, Mr. Rong Yu. I believe that with you, 'Time Mark' will become a shining star in the handicraft industry."
As night falls again, the office of "Time Mark" is still brightly lit. Team members sit together and share the joy and gains of the International Handicraft Forum. They know that this is just the beginning of their journey, and there will be more challenges and opportunities waiting for them in the future.
"Rong Yu, what should we do next?" Tong Luoluo asked, with anticipation gleaming in his eyes.
Rong Yu pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly. "We must continue to deepen the innovation and research and development of handicrafts, while also focusing on market expansion and brand promotion.
I think we can consider offering some handicraft experience courses to allow more people to experience the charm of handicrafts themselves.”
"Good idea!" Li Hao's eyes lit up. "We can also cooperate with some internationally renowned handicraft brands to jointly promote the innovation and development of handicrafts."
The team members nodded in agreement, their hearts filled with longing and expectations for the future.
