A long time passed before Chen Shuo spoke first.
"Qinqin, what do they mean by this?"
They left, and left a note to talk about something.
If they left it, fine, but is this how you poach someone and ask them to jump ship?
Xi Qinqin was also stunned after listening and shook her head, "I don't know..."
"Maybe it's like what's said here, they want to recruit a good photographer?"
To be honest, she herself was not sure.
She would rather believe it was a joke, otherwise she might have already gone...
"What do we say now? Just pretend we didn't see it?"
"Let's keep it for now and talk about it when we go back during the holiday."
She would check the specific situation when she got back.
Perhaps those girls just genuinely wanted to help...
"Okay, then I'll keep it."
Listening to Xi Qinqin, Chen Shuo carefully put away the note.
"Okay, let's leave it at that for now."
"There's still time, let's fix the pictures first. There isn't much time left in this holiday."
There would be a bunch of annoying things to do when she got back, and she didn't want to spoil such a good mood and such beautiful work.
"Alright!"
So, Xi Qinqin temporarily put aside the matter of the note.
Meanwhile, Qiu Xi and the others were already on their flight back.
"Xiao Xi, as we discussed last night, I've given the note to Sister Qin."
Qiu Xi nodded, "Yes, I saw it."
In fact, this idea had occurred to them the very first day they met Xi Qinqin, but at the time, looking at her and Xiao Feifei, they didn't think the two of them lacked work. Instead, they felt their company was in dire need of talent!
Their initial thought was that they had reservations, so they hadn't considered putting it into practice. It was only when they learned some news from Chen Shuo this morning that they made a last-minute decision to speak up before leaving, so they came up with this method.
"Xiao Xi, do you think Sister Qin will come if we do this?"
She felt the possibility was quite low...
However, if the person really came, they wouldn't have to bother finding other companies or studios to outsource their photography needs.
This was a chance to kill two birds with one stone, and other things could be developed slowly later on.
"I'm not sure either, maybe... she will..."
The decision was made just before they left, simply because they heard someone's story...
So if you asked her, she really couldn't guarantee it.
However, based on their interactions with the two of them over the past two days, if their investigation revealed no surprises, they should still come...
"Why worry about this!"
"Let's just wait until we get back. If they come, that's great. If not, there's no loss."
I'm lucky if I get it, and resigned to fate if I don't. She didn't feel anything to dwell on now.
If this doesn't work, she'll find another!
The idea was purely for commercial benefit, not to rob the rich to help the poor or to be a do-gooder!
She wasn't a philanthropist and couldn't do such things!
"That's true, I was overthinking it," Liang Yunfei nodded.
It was she who had handed over the envelope just now, and she had thought too much.
"What are you two talking about? So seriously."
Shen Yan looked at the two of them with wide eyes, puzzled.
"Also, when we were leaving just now, Xiao Feifei, what was that envelope you handed over?"
This was what Song Daiyao was more concerned about.
Thinking of that scene, she had a feeling that the topic Qiu Xi and the others were discussing was probably related to this.
Shen Yan also chimed in, "Yes, didn't we agree to give a little reward when we received the returned photos?"
This was what the four of them had discussed in the guesthouse after their first day.
Initially, Xi Qinqin and the others took photos for updates.
But later on, it was no longer necessary, yet they still followed them for two full days.
So they thought they couldn't really let them follow them for two days for just those few photos of grassland horse racing on the first day, so they finally decided to give them some compensation.
Qiu Xi shook her head slightly, "It's not a big deal. Things happened suddenly, so we didn't have time to tell you two."
As she spoke, Qiu Xi simply explained what she and Liang Yunfei had done to the two of them.
"Mmm... So will Sister Qin come?" Song Daiyao was a little curious.
She had a small stake in Xiguang, having invested a little, so she was still a bit concerned.
Qiu Xi shook her head, "I don't know, it depends on them."
"Forget it... Compared to this, I'm more concerned about when the photos will be sent to us."
Xi Qinqin's skills were unquestionable, but she didn't know if the returned photos would be efficient.
"It shouldn't be long, but it won't be too soon either..."
They had quite a few photos, and Xi Qinqin wouldn't let them delete some, so the workload was still large.
"That's true, we took quite a lot of photos..."
"Instead of thinking about this, why don't you think about how to plan after you get back!"
Chatting endlessly was boring.
"Right!"
A word to awaken the dreamer, and the three of them immediately drooped their shoulders.
They had had so much fun that they had forgotten that the CAtti in June was about to start...
Taking the first level exam directly, without any preparation, was definitely not an option.
"Suddenly snapped back to reality from the holiday..." Even though the holiday wasn't over yet...
"Yeah... snapped back to reality!"
Because of Qiu Xi's words, the four of them didn't say a word until the plane landed.
"Alright, see you at school in a couple of days~"
"Mm, bye-bye~"
Qiu Xi and Song Daiyao were going home, while Liang Yunfei and Shen Yan were returning to school.
...
Some say that when you have nothing to do, things will naturally find you.
So, the day after Qiu Xi returned, while she was still contemplating what to do to relax, her cousin and his boyfriend came to visit.
"Brother, why do you have time to come over?" Qiu Xi asked, looking puzzled.
And it was these two who came together. Did it mean that their work was already finished?
"We've got some news about the testing, so we're back to rest."
This sentence resolved Qiu Xi's confusion.
As expected, their work was finished!
"Did you finish this during the holiday by working overtime?"
She had initially thought it would be until mid-month, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.
"Yes, roughly," Xu Xuanming nodded. "But we had planned to take a holiday, and the next day people from there contacted us. The speed was quite fast, so we worked overtime, and now everything is ready."
Qiu Xi was surprised, "Does that mean it can start after the holiday?"
The two nodded, "Yes."
"For now, we've tentatively scheduled the internal testing to start on the third day after the holiday, and we plan to finish it within three months."
They couldn't drag it out too long. It would be best to launch it for the summer break.
After that, they still needed to consider user acquisition, celebrity endorsements, and so on, so there was still a lot of work.
"Then remember to give me a few accounts, I'll try them out." She couldn't play for that long, but she still wanted to take a look.
"Okay, I'll give you one tomorrow after it's done."
Today was just for resting, and tomorrow they still had to work overtime during the holiday...
"Alright~ Then I'll tell Shen Yan and the others in a while. We'll go and cheer when the server opens!"
"Mm."
"Oh, right!" After finishing, Qiu Xi turned back, "Are you two hungry? Should I make something to eat?"
She was idle just now, and now she had something to do~
"We can eat something outside," Xu Xuanming said, but his eyes looked at Qiu Xi expectantly.
"It's okay, I'm free anyway. It'll be ready soon."
Saying that, Qiu Xi headed towards the kitchen.
She hadn't cooked in a long time, and now that people were back, she might as well whip up something good instead of ordering takeout.
