Stealing Creativity
However, Jiang Yu was more cautious when it came to big jewelry. In terms of creativity in making small accessories, Jiang Yu felt that she could still show off her skills.
This batch of bracelets was only a down payment. When the workshop finished three quarters of the bracelet, the customers could pay the rest.
After the first order was completed, they would start the second order. At the same time, Jiang Yu also planned to design a few new accessories.
This way, customers would have more choices, and the online store would become more and more famous.
And all of this was seen by Hong Na. She immediately told Kang He about this.
Since Jiang Yu didn’t fire her, Hong Na naturally stayed here in peace and continued to pass on information to Kang He.
To her, Kang He was the biggest boss.
After Kang He got wind of the news, she immediately got the operations and marketing departments to open an online store called ‘he’s store’. The bracelet on sale was very similar to the one sold by Jiang Yu.
The only difference was that the color of the gemstones was the same. Other than that, there were no other differences.
Moreover, Kang He didn’t use precious stones, but the lowest-grade jewelries in the warehouse. Although it was the genuine one, its quality was not as good as the fake Jade.
Therefore, when the bracelet was launched, someone commented in the shop’s comments: “Isn’t this the bracelet from movie queen Jiang’s online store? What kind of shop is this? What’s the difference apart from the color?”
“Moreover, movie queen Jiang even carefully wrote down the original author’s name, but you didn’t even write it and dared to use it? You’re really shameless.”
“I really want to report this shop.”
There were countless comments like this, but Kang He didn’t care. Not only did she delete their comments, but she also lowered the price of the bracelet.
With this move, the number of people who came to Kang He’s shop to buy bracelets increased.
One of the shops sold imitation jewelry, while the other sold authentic jewelry at a cheap price. Although they had stolen someone else’s idea, those who only wanted to take advantage of the situation didn’t care so much. They just wanted to buy something that was the same as the original with less money.
As soon as Kang He’s shop opened, Jiang Yu naturally knew about this news.
She really didn’t expect Kang He to be so thick-skinned. Not only did she blatantly steal her idea, but she also deliberately lowered the price of the bracelet. Anyone with a discerning eye could immediately see what Kang He’s goal was.
Sister Xia was even angrier than Jiang Yu when she found out about this.
“This Kang He is too shameless! Isn’t this stealing your idea? What was even more outrageous was that there were actually people who supported her because of the cheap price of her shop! What was the meaning of this? Did this group of people not even have the slightest bit of consciousness of the original? Jiang Yu, let’s make a report!”
the company’s reputation has always been bad. It’s not good for the company if this matter blows up. Jiang Yu sighed. sister Xia, how about this? I’ll send someone to negotiate with them. If Kang He is willing to take the goods off the shelves, we’ll let this matter go.
“But I don’t think Kang He will take the products off the shelves.” The more sister Xia spoke, the angrier she got. She might even bite back at you and say that you stole her idea!”
This situation was indeed possible, and it was not that Jiang Yu had not thought of it. However, for the sake of the shop’s stable development, Jiang Yu still decided to negotiate with Kang He first.
Sister Xia also knew that Jiang Yu was doing this for the sake of the store, so she volunteered to take on this task.
Jiang Yu couldn’t think of a more suitable candidate. She couldn’t let Hong Na do the talking, so she let sister Xia handle it.
Although sister Xia was angry, she knew that she could not lose her temper when negotiating with Kang He. Otherwise, they might even bite back and say that she was there to cause trouble.
Therefore, when sister Xia saw Kang He, she had a standard smile on her face.
Kang He’s face was full of disdain. “I was wondering who it was. It’s you. Aren’t you the manager of an entertainment company? Why are you here? I don’t have any plans to invest in a movie or TV series. Even if I do, I definitely won’t let Jiang Yu act in it.”
“It’s not about that.” Sister Xia smiled and went straight to the point. the bracelet you sold online was our idea, so we hope you can take it off the shelf and we won’t pursue the matter.
