Chapter 2185 - 708: Lingling’s Daily Life

Songmei Clothing, in the bustling break room.

"Lingling! What would you like for afternoon tea? Help us combine an order, CHAGEE has a special today!"

A young girl from the operations department popped her head in to ask.

"Absolutely! I’ll have a ’Bo Ya Jue Xian’, regular sugar, less ice, thanks, Xiao Chun." Yao Lingling replied cheerfully, adding a wink.

"Lingling, have the samples for our winter collection arrived? I saw the warehouse seemed to be organizing them this morning."

"That’s right! The samples for our winter main ’Warm Velvet Series’ are all here, they’ll be in Yiyi’s live broadcast next week! I’ll let you in on a secret, there’s one that’s super gorgeous, whoever wears it will look like a K-drama female lead!"

...

Yao Lingling held her lunch box, surrounded by a group of equally young colleagues, chatting away.

Even though she hasn’t been with Songmei Clothing for long, she’s already clicked with the entire company.

From the front desk ladies, to the big guys in the warehouse, and even the key members in different departments, she can almost call out everyone’s name, and she gets along quite well with all of them.

Her non-aggressive energy and infectiousness, along with her willingness to share and generous nature, made her blend in perfectly here.

She’s practically the soul of the company’s atmosphere team.

Very popular.

...

After lunch, she tidied up her lunch box.

Returned to her workstation.

The entire design center is spacious, with excellent lighting.

The large worktable was filled with various colorful inspiration images, fabric swatches, and ongoing design drafts, brimming with a strong creative atmosphere.

Yao Lingling sat quietly, wrapping her hands around a "Stay Bright" thermos, sipping hot water, focused.

The computer screen lit up.

She wasn’t watching dramas or scrolling through gossip videos, but directly opened the Qingmi AI web page.

As the head of the He Yi fashion design center, integrating AI into the fashion design process was a key task her senior assigned her at yesterday’s meeting.

The "you lead this" tone was both trusting and pressuring.

She opened a new page, typing in a few keywords into the search box:

"Dopamine dressing, 2024 spring/summer, color trend forecast."

Almost as soon as she hit the enter key, a flood of precisely filtered and deeply integrated information appeared on the screen like a waterfall —

from WGSN’s professional trend reports, Vogue Business’s annual color forecasts,

to outfit analyses from KOLs on Little Red Book, Instagram.

And AI-generated virtual model styling images, all clear at a glance.

Yao Lingling’s eyes gradually lit up.

This is the power of Qingmi AI.

Since Lime 3.0 was released, it was no longer just a search tool,

but a true "intelligent partner" that understands semantics, capable of creation, and imagination.

It can automatically extract trends, generate lookbooks, and even help designers develop conceptual series.

As of now, Qingmi AI’s global user count is nearly 150 million.

On par with OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

More importantly, it works seamlessly in the domestic market.

The free version is already powerful, while the Pro version can generate images, PPTs, and dynamic display diagrams.

It’s truly a productivity booster.

After immersing in the powerful and highly efficient functions of Qingmi AI for a while,

Yao Lingling contentedly closed the webpage.

She then opened the internal materials about Yimai Technology sent by Tang Song, and started seriously reviewing them, jotting down her thoughts and questions in her memo.

It’s worth mentioning that the second core item she independently led in design —

a detachable ultra-light down jacket that combines top fashion sense and functionality, has successfully entered the small batch trial production stage.

Based on the feedback from dozens of top-notch fashion influencers currently collaborating, the evaluation results have been amazing, and the pre-sale response is excellent.

For some reason, ever since Su Yu wore her parka,

she felt like her source of inspiration had been completely activated, with all kinds of whimsical ideas and clear thoughts appearing daily.

Continuously filling her design drafts with surprises.

This filled her with unprecedented confidence in herself and the future of He Yi.

Just as her senior said in the meeting, the future of Songmei Clothing will be a "new fashion group" integrating technology, design, and supply chain.

As she was immersed in work.

"Buzzz—" a WhatsApp message popped up on her computer.

[Mother: "Lingling, how are things going with your boyfriend lately? Are you free this weekend? Bring him home for a meal, will you?"]

Yao Lingling blushed as she saw the message and quickly typed her reply: "(emoji) Please, it’s not that fast. We just started dating not long ago. If you are too forward, you’ll scare him away!"

[Mother: "Alright, alright, let’s wait a bit longer. But you should make an effort and try to bring him home by New Year’s. By the way, have you decided on the car? It’s so cold now. I’m telling you, the Mercedes-Benz C is nice. Our neighbor’s daughter just got one, a white one, and it looks beautiful — it’s only 310,000 on the road. The family will cover this expense."]

Seeing her mom’s messages, Yao Lingling’s fingers danced quickly on the keyboard: "You are so generous! But actually, my dream car is the Mercedes-Benz CLS~ How about... you and dad sponsor a bit more?"
