Chapter 331
During this period, although the Salvador Hotel and KS World Hotel appeared to be at peace on the surface, they were quietly competing against each other behind the scenes.
As an international superstar, Ada Wang held a prestigious position in the entertainment industry and always conducted herself in an extremely high-profile manner. She would spare no expense for her wedding. Thus, she would not look at wedding planning proposals unless several top-tier brands sponsored the event.
It was widely known that Ada Wang was a jewelry connoisseur, having privately held small- scale exhibitions of her extensive personal collection, where each piece was valued at no less than a million dollars.
For this grand wedding, Ada Wang presented a demanding requirement to both the Salvador Hotel and the KS World Hotel. The jewelry she would wear must be globally top-notch, made by master craftsmen, and exclusively for her.
“Ms. Ada insisted that only something unique would be fitting for her superstar status.”
Ian faithfully conveyed the agent’s words to Justin and the executives present. “She also mentioned that Ms. Ada won’t make any demands or impose restrictions on the style of the jewelry or the selected designers. She leaves it entirely to the hotel’s wedding planning team to figure it out. Whoever can present jewelry that satisfies her will be chosen to organize her wedding. She means what she says.”
Justin listened with a furrowed brow. His signing pen tapped the table intermittently, and his eyes gradually clouded. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
The executives were all in awe, sparking lively discussions.
“She’s clearly taking advantage of the situation! Does she think that the Salvador Hotel and the KS World Hotel are her treasure chest?!”
“What international superstar? A hundred years ago, she would’ve been a jesting performer. Now she thinks she’s some kind of hot cake?”
“She’s practically proposing a half-baked question. Ms. Ada is wasting her talent as a star. Why doesn’t she come up with exam questions?”
Justin suddenly raised his eyes, exuding a strong sense of oppression. “This is a meeting room, not a supermarket. Speak if you have solutions. Otherwise, keep your mouths shut.”
Seeing the big boss angered, everyone dared not babble this time. They racked their brains, each busy offering suggestions.
The director of the Product Design Department listed the names of renowned domestic and international jewelry designers. Not only that, she had prepared a PowerPoint presentation, meticulously introducing the background information and notable works of each designer to Justin.
Justin listened expressionlessly, then suddenly asked, “Why isn’t Alexa mentioned in this list?”
The moment Alexa’s name was uttered, the entire room fell silent.
“What’s going on? Why are you all making those faces?” Justin raised an eyebrow, not understanding why they were as silent as corpses.
“Ahem… Well, Mr. Salvador, forgive me for being straightforward. But it’s absolutely impossible for us to hire Alexa…” The director of the design department spoke cautiously.
“Why? Did she pass away?”
Everyone was speechless.
Justin asked seriously, genuinely not harboring any ill intent.
As the president of Salvador Corporation, Justin was a master in business negotiations and management, but when it came to the intricacies of the jewelry and fashion world, he truly was an outsider.
“It’s not that. Alexa is hailed as a god in the jewelry design world. All of the craftsmen I presented to you just now have praised Alexa endlessly. Some even openly admit that when they lack inspiration, they turn to Alexa’s works to find it. Alexa is simply a titan in the design world, an almost god-like figure. Anyone who can purchase her jewelry considers themselves blessed with a family heirloom. How could we possibly invite her to come out of retirement to design unique jewelry for a superstar like Ada Wang? It’s simply a fantasy.”
The director of the design department was a big fan of Alexa. She even felt that having Alexa design jewelry for a celebrity like Ada was somewhat diminishing the value of the goddess Alexa.
“No matter how legendary she is, she’s human as long as she lives in this world,” Justin said with a strong resolve. He would not consider anything less than the optimal solution. Thus, he proclaimed, “Let’s get Alexa as Ada Wang’s wedding jewelry designer.”
Everyone thought, ‘What the hell?!’
The design department director was anxiously sweating. “Mr. Salvador… The designers I introduced you to are all exceptionally talented. Their works have won numerous international awards and are absolutely commendable.”
Justin shook his head lightly. “I’m not rejecting your choices because they’re not good. On the contrary, you did well. You just overlooked one thing-our competitor.”
The crowd exchanged puzzled glances.
“Our opponent this time is KS World Hotel, Ms. Bella Thompson.”
In the past, whenever this name was mentioned, Justin felt an intense headache. However, this time, his eyes sparkled with admiration and respect for her. “I know Bella very well. Like me, she strives for excellence in everything she does, always aiming for perfection. We know the requirements Ada Wang has put forth. With the financial strength of KS Group and Bella’s decisive approach, do you think she’ll settle for anything less than the best?”
