"The response makes me curious and I can't help but ask… When we were looking at the pictures from the collection, we saw similarities to a brand called Sophie's Secret. Your designs were rather similar. Do you have a comment about that?"
Qian Meng felt her lips tighten, but she was sure her smile was in place. This reporter really liked to push the boundaries now that he had gotten the opportunity to question her. He knew this was off-limits.
But it was in Qian Meng's personality not to back down. She knew she could say a lot indirectly without implicating herself. Li Jun had told her as much. She knew enough about these reporters to have all sorts of answers ready. "In our concept and design class, we were taught that no idea is completely original. We are subconsciously inspired by the things around us. I don't see much of a resemblance between the designs from Sophie's Secret and our collection, really. It is a matter of quality, craftsmanship, and material."
