Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261: Disappointment

If the problems were not solved at once, the director feared that within a week he would not even be able to deliver a finished job, and then he would really become a big joke in the industry.

Sighing heavily, the director said reluctantly:

-Be careful with today's recording, prepare enough material, but try to disguise the problems in the editing.

Mariana remained mute in her chair, looking at the colorful and messy cloths on the table with calm eyes.

He found it hard to accept that he had involved Ms. Maria and her colleagues because he wanted to make a contribution to the design industry, but instead of contributing, he had created the one blemish on Maria's career that was the idol of designers.

But now I was trapped in this small room, unable to leave, unable to clarify or explain, or even apologize.

Mariana felt helpless, as if a big, heavy stone was on her shoulders and prevented her from getting up.

Suddenly, the door to the room was pushed open, but Mariana didn't care.

His heart darkened and he silently looked at the untouched box of food in front of him, it was time to eat.

The next moment, however, an unexpected voice startled her.

-Have you finished your design?

Mariana's eyes shook fiercely and she jumped to her feet, and as she turned her head, she saw Maria.

Tears welled up in her eyes in an instant and dispelled her depression.

Guilt welled up in her heart. Mariana clasped her hands behind her back and rubbed her fingertips together hard, turning them red instantly.

Mariana trembled as she walked towards Maria, biting her lower lip, and slowing down each time.

Looking at her in that state, Maria frowned feeling nothing but disappointment.

Maria knew that Mariana had no Mariana design when she saw the cloth strewn across her table.

-Is this your approach to the competition? Or do you feel proud after taking first place in the first episode? Do you think the other contestants are not as talented as you and think you can get first place again with a random design?

In the silent room, these words of rebuke sounded a bit harsh.

The team following Mariana was shaken. They used to complain about Mariana, who did not follow the rules of the contest, but now they sympathized with her.

Mariana had come in first place in the first episode, and now she was being directly and openly criticized by a master of the industry, so she must have taken a big hit.

With slightly trembling eyes, the crew and cameramen cast sympathetic glances at Mariana.

Mariana just nodded her head soberly, not discussing anything.

Indeed, his condition was recorded and could not be disputed.

-I'm sorry, I...

After a pause, Mariana still tried to apologize to Maria, but was interrupted just as she opened her mouth.

-You should apologize, but you shouldn't apologize to me, but to the public who have supported you, and to the consumers you will serve in the future. I think you should know that this program is just a platform for you to show your talent, so you should seize every opportunity with sincerity and not miss any.

With a fierce shiver, Mariana stood a little dazed with slightly parted lips and eyes full of complex emotions.

-And you have to be rational about criticism for designers, because we can't move forward without that criticism, neither can we get recognition and pride, but there are some evaluations that can be ignored altogether, because that kind of evaluation is not directed at the work, but at the designer of the work!

The words fell clearly on Mariana's ears, as well as in her heart.

-Well, please leave the tools in your hands, it's time. The staff will go to their rooms and your designs will be taken to the stage for judging.

Mariana leaned on a table, leaving the objects in her hands and relaxing.

Within moments, a staff member knocked on the door and entered the room, carefully moving the design Mariana was wearing on her model. The designers did not have to leave, as there was a relay screen in their room where they could watch the choices and the judges' comments in real time.

This method was used to eliminate cheating the judges by numbering the designs and not clearly telling them their designers.

Sitting quietly in her seat, Mariana folded her hands against her lips and looked at the screen with an expressionless face but with a slight nervousness in her heart.

-After 48 hours of creation, what now stands before you are the works of 7 designers and 1 new contestant. In the second phase of the contest, a 1 versus 1 will take place and the loser will be eliminated!

At that point, with a meaningful smile on his face, the presenter turned to the judges and spoke softly.

-As you can see, the eight designers have been divided into four groups because of the different themes. We are going to vote for the first two designs on the theme "Eternal life in fire". Please raise these two works to the center of our stage. I'm going to give you ten minutes. The clock is already running.

It all happened very quickly as the words tumbled out, everyone was nervous, with the camera panning across the judges' torn faces, before finally settling on Diana.

Diana looked different than usual, her face looked much paler in front of the camera and she was a bit tired.

Mariana's eyes blinked with confusion, but before she could understand, the presenter was already asking Diana to comment.

-What follows is Diana's review. You may not know that yesterday Diana was unfortunately involved in a car accident, but fortunately she was not seriously injured and is still here today. Let's give her a round of applause.

In an instant, the eyes of the audience turned to Diana and applauded. Diana stood up, turned to the judges behind her and bowed, and faced the camera with another humble bow.

-Thank you all, I am much better now. This is my job and dedication is part of my job.

At these words, there was another round of applause from the room, which echoed throughout the recording studio.
