The seven shortlisted designers, including Ma Xiaolian, each held their own models and completed the final catwalk performance on the catwalk.
"I would like to invite the seven winners to stay on the stage. Next, I will announce the top three winners of this fashion design competition. They are..."
"The champion is Qin Hao, the chief designer from Shengya Clothing Company."
"The runner-up is Li Yuanpeng, a designer from Qicheng Clothing Company."
"The third runner-up is from... designer Liu Na from Yongning Sancai Garment Factory!"
…
When the host read the third place winner, he was obviously stunned.
Among a bunch of well-known clothing companies, the name of a clothing factory unexpectedly appeared, which surprised many viewers present.
"What kind of company is this Sancai Garment Factory?"
"It's interesting. I know Yongning. I heard it's a small county town, but I didn't expect that a small clothing factory in a county town could have such a powerful fashion designer."
In the audience, many people were discussing the origins of Liu Na and the Sancai Garment Factory.
In their view, Qin Hao and Li Yuanpeng seemed to have deserved to win the award. As early as the beginning of the competition, these two had become popular contestants in major newspapers.
In addition to Qin Hao and Li Yuanpeng, there are also several well-known fashion designers in Sichuan Province, but no one expected that the third runner-up would be a designer whose name they had never heard of.
this moment.
When Liu Na's name came to the background.
The shocked expressions on the faces of the remaining designers were no less than those of the audience outside.
"How can this be?"
Many people were staring at Liu Na.
Compared to Qin Hao and Li Yuanpeng winning both the championship and runner-up, they were obviously more interested in this dark horse that suddenly emerged.
"Third place?
Liu Na, pinch me to see if I'm dreaming?"
Shen Xuan stood there with some excitement. At this moment, let alone others, even she couldn't believe it.
"You heard it right, we are the third runner-up!"
When the host's voice sounded again, Liu Na's face burst into laughter and she smiled excitedly.
"That's great, Liu Na...I just said you have no problem!"
Shen Xuan opened her eyes wide and said happily:
"If we win the third place, not to mention our county, even the province will probably have to send notifications in person. By then our Sancai Garment Factory will be really famous. Don't you always want to compete with a well-known clothing company?
Cooperate?
We have achieved such results, but are we afraid that no clothing company will cooperate with us?"
Initially, she looked calm, but when she heard what Shen Xuan said, Liu Na belatedly realized the value of this third runner-up.
Provincial newspapers and periodicals are not something that can be published just by asking.
Moreover, this fashion design competition was the first in Sichuan Province in many years, and it was personally hosted by the Provincial Labor Bureau, not to mention its valuable content.
Being able to win a finalist award, Ma Xiaolian and other designers were so excited that they burst into tears. If they were awarded the top three, they would probably have to be followed up by TV stations.
"Now, let us invite three award-winning designers!"
On the stage, the host spoke again.
The sound was heard backstage, and a steward quickly ran to Liu Na.
"Designer Liu, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and lead your models!"
The winning designer has to lead his own model on stage for the final catwalk performance.
Upon hearing this, Liu Na quickly came to her senses and turned around to see that Li Xin had already arranged her makeup and hair.
"Go on stage quickly, don't be nervous if you stay for a while!"
Shen Xuan warned Liu Na.
Although Liu Na is now the director of a clothing factory, as a newcomer in the design world, this is the first time Liu Na has stepped onto such a big stage. Anyone else would be nervous, let alone her.
"I know."
Nodding to Shen Xuan, Liu Na smiled slightly and then led Li Xin to the front desk.
Similarly, Qin Hao and Li Yuanpeng also took the stage like Liu Na.
Both of them were standing in the waiting area with their models. Looking at Liu Na's appearance, their eyes were somewhat strange.
A little-known newcomer actually won the third place in the provincial competition, second only to the two of them. This made the two champions and runners-up feel somewhat complicated.
"A wild boy from night school can actually win an award in such a competition. I think you must have spent a lot of money, or maybe... the judges on this stage have something to do with you?"
In the waiting area, Li Yuanpeng stared at Liu Na and said with a bit of sarcasm and dissatisfaction.
To be honest, standing with a newcomer like Liu Na to receive the award is simply a shame for a well-known designer like him.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
When she heard Li Yuanpeng's words, Liu Na looked a little ugly.
She respected Li Yuanpeng as her senior, so she was polite to him again and again, but she never thought that she had never offended this person, so why would Li Yuanpeng speak so harshly to her.
"You have to provide evidence when you speak. Sister Liu Na won the award based on her strength. Why did you say that she came through the back door... If you ask me, you, the runner-up, probably came through the back door!"
Beside Liu Na, Li Xin also stood up and said rudely to Li Yuanpeng.
Although she is younger than Liu Na, she has quite a temper. At this moment, she is fighting for Liu Na's injustice.
"Smelly girl, how dare you talk to me like that?"
Li Yuanpeng looked annoyed and was about to attack Li Xin as he spoke.
The little girl turned pale with fright, and when Liu Na saw this, she also stood in front of Li Xin.
"Li Yuanpeng, please calm down."
Before Li Yuanpeng could slap him, a big hand clamped down on his right hand like an iron vice.
"Qin Hao, since when did you become nosy?"
Li Yuanpeng turned his head and glanced at Qin Hao who was blocking him, and said in a cold tone.
"I don't like to worry about your trivial matters, but now we are at the competition site. This is a provincial competition...Why, you, Li Yuanpeng, have such a great reputation that even the judges of the provincial competition dare to question you?"
Qin Hao glanced at Li Yuanpeng jokingly, then smiled and said: "Who in the clothing industry in Chengdu doesn't know what the relationship between Professor Li from the Textile College and you is, do you still need me to tell you?"
Qin Hao's words seemed to have stepped on Li Yuanpeng's painful foot, causing his expression to change suddenly.
"snort!"
With a cold snort, Li Yuanpeng retracted his arm and immediately walked aside, obviously not intending to pay attention to Liu Na and the others.
Even so, anyone can see that Li Yuanpeng is afraid of Qin Hao.
"Thanks!"
After Li Yuanpeng left, Liu Na took the initiative to thank Qin Hao in front of her.
"You don't need to thank me. I've seen your entries. To be honest...you are quite brave to dare to present national-style works in the competition."
Qin Hao glanced at Liu Na and paused for a moment.
He didn't look carefully just now, but now when he looked closely, Qin Hao realized that the woman in front of him was no less beautiful than the female model next to her.
