"Hiss…"
Xavier gasped, truly wondering why Kaveh would think of such a design.
He frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Director Kaveh, could you elaborate on why you designed it in this shape, and if it has any special functions?"
Hearing Xavier inquire about its functions, Kaveh immediately perked up.
"The Chairman's question is excellent. Regarding the design philosophy for this product, my inspiration came from the Mushroom."
Xavier thought he had misheard. What did this thing have to do with Mushrooms?
"Hmm…"
Kaveh's words made Alhaitham ponder. He sat in the CEO's chair, his hands propping up his chin.
His eyes were deeply shadowed, making his thoughts impossible to discern.
However, one could guess that he did not seem to fully approve of Kaveh's design philosophy.
"Hey, Kaveh, are you treating us like fools? What does this have to do with Mushrooms?!"
"I think this is clearly a plunger, it's hideous!"
Furina voiced everyone's thoughts.
"You!"
Kaveh pointed directly at Furina, furious, and cursed, "You scoundrel, you don't understand anything! This is called fashion, alright? And how is it like a plunger?!"
Hu Tao also added fuel to the fire, "But I do think it looks like a plunger, and I believe everyone else thinks so too."
Seeing someone support her, Furina immediately became even more arrogant, "That's right, no matter what you say today, it's a plunger, it can't be anything else!"
Kaveh was already a bit slow with words, and being mocked by the two of them in turn made him quite unable to retort.
Suddenly remembering something, Kaveh pointed at Furina and said, "You don't seem to be an employee of our company, do you? Why are you appearing in our conference room and leaking secrets? Be careful, I'll find the head of the legal department to sue you!"
Yanfei was currently engrossed in reading relevant laws and regulations on Blue Star, completely unaware of what was happening.
"What's wrong? Is someone going to sue us shortly after I arrived? Did we infringe on something?"
Zhongli, sitting beside her, took a sip of tea and said, "It's fine, they are just spouting nonsense."
After hearing that, Yanfei continued to bury herself in her studies, truly a dedicated lawyer.
Meanwhile, the three of them were arguing more and more fiercely.
"Only an idiot would buy a plunger!"
"You scoundrel, if you dare say it's a plunger again, I'll fight you."
"And you call yourself a genius designer, a genius of the Amurta School? I'd have Lord 乌瑟 draw something random and it would be better than this!"
"That's too much! You're actually comparing your summoned creature to me."
The three not only argued, but also used their hands and feet.
They slowly moved their argument onto the table, standing on it and yelling at each other.
"Alright, everyone!"
Alhaitham couldn't bear to listen anymore and slammed his hand on the table, which finally quieted everyone down a bit.
"Hmph! I'm too lazy to bother with you unperceptive people!"
Kaveh snorted and returned to the stage.
Alhaitham said in a calm tone, "Director Kaveh, please continue to explain the concept of this product. If there are no highlights or if it cannot gain our approval, this product will be rejected, and your performance bonus for the current month will be deducted."
Xavier was very satisfied with this scene, thinking that he truly was a scholar, knowing even more than himself.
Kaveh tidied his clothes before continuing his introduction.
"This product is designed with biomimicry. Its A-side can not only perfectly conform to various parts of the human body."
"Moreover, I have added various materials from Sumeru, which will make our product softer to use and gentle on the skin."
What Kaveh called the A-side was the plunger part of the toilet plunger. Upon closer inspection, it seemed it wasn't entirely a plunger, but had subtle curves.
After being enlarged on the PPT, everyone realized that this curve indeed had a lot of thought behind it; it was not only curved appropriately but also conformed well to the human anatomy.
Xavier, who had also been skeptical, immediately gave a thumbs up, "Director Kaveh, I truly didn't misjudge you! This product is indeed very advanced and user-friendly!"
Kaveh raised his small head and said proudly, "Of course! I am a once-in-a-century genius of the Amurta School…"
"Director Kaveh, we don't have much time reserved for this meeting, please continue with your explanation."
He was interrupted by Ganyu just as he was halfway through his sentence.
As a secretary, Ganyu's strongest skill was time management.
To bring the company back from the brink in the shortest possible time, every step had to be flawless, and time had to be managed appropriately.
"Alright, in addition to the special design of the A-side, I have also added a fun and innovative B-side."
The so-called B-side, of course, was the handle of the plunger.
It turned out that this handle was hollow, and by pressing a hidden button, it could dispense a lubricating and skin-nourishing liquid.
Similarly, these liquids also came from Sumeru.
"I presume that sometimes when you shave your beard or other body hair, you feel some pain, right?"
"With this liquid, it's different. After shaving, just a little application can make your whole body feel light and comfortable, and you'll never experience that stinging sensation again."
"Combined with our special material, it can be said to eliminate 99.99% of discomfort."
"I imagine there isn't any similar product on the market that can achieve this level, right?!"
Kaveh folded his arms across his chest, full of confidence. He had just checked online and indeed, there were no competing products.
"Good!"
Xavier took the lead, standing up and applauding wildly.
When others saw the chairman stand up, they naturally followed suit.
Kaveh quickly waved his hands, feigning modesty, "Oh, it's all basic stuff, everyone, no need to applaud."
Then he turned his gaze to Alhaitham and asked, "How is it, President Alhaitham? Are you satisfied with my design? Do I need to redesign it?"
Alhaitham didn't even look at him directly but raised the sign in front of him, giving it a "√".
Work is work, and life is life; a rational fanatic like Alhaitham would certainly not choose to deny something due to personal emotional issues.
But Kaveh was quite displeased, as this was not the result he wanted to see.
In his imagination, Alhaitham should have been very annoyed at this point, but ultimately had no choice but to give him approval.
Ganyu nodded with great satisfaction, writing something on her notepad.
Then she leaned over and quietly asked Xavier, "Chairman, if that's the case, then this product should be approved, right?"
Xavier nodded, "Of course. And we don't have much time. Even if it could be made better, there isn't enough time."
"Then next, we should arrange client meetings, and before those meetings, the planning department must provide a proposal that can impress the clients."
