《特洛伊遇见布鲁因》程万万

29、特洛伊 中国女人（

　　他看了看脸色铁青的Draco Coppa和眼神坚定的沈若斐，语气严肃地问道：“What's wrong?”（怎么了？）

　　Draco Coppa看到Rochefort，恶人先告状：“Rochefort, Miss Serena came to hand in the design draft. I wanted to collect it for you and then give it to you, but she just wouldn't let me. She even got into an argument with me and was rather rude.”(Rochefort，这位Serena小姐过来交设计稿，我想帮您代收，然后拿给您，可她就是不肯，还跟我吵了起来，甚至出言不逊。)

　　沈若斐没有急于辩解，只是平静地看着Rochefort，语气礼貌而平静：“Hello, Rochefort. I'm Serena. I'm here to hand over the design draft to you. I had made an appointment with you before. Just now, the front desk said you were in a meeting and asked me to wait for you in the lounge. This Mr. Coppa said he was your assistant and would collect the design draft on your behalf, but I wanted to hand it over to you in person and communicate the design concept with you face to face, so I declined him. He then got angry and criticized me and the Chinese people.”(Rochefort，您好，我是Serena，今天是来给您交设计稿的。我之前和您预约过，刚才前台说您在开会，让我在休息室等您。这位Coppa先生说是您的助理，要帮您代收设计稿，但我想亲自把设计稿交给您，当面和您沟通设计理念，所以就拒绝了他。他就直接吵起来，贬低我，贬低中国人。)

　　Rochefort闻言，脸色瞬间沉了下来，严厉地看向Draco Coppa：“Coppa, did you say something about racial discrimination?”(Coppa，你说了种族歧视的话？)
　　Draco Coppa眼神飘忽，语气支支吾吾：“I... I didn't. I just... My tone was not good. There was no intention of being racist.”(我…我没有，我只…语气不好，没有种族歧视的意思。)

　　“How dare you try to defend yourself?”(你还敢狡辩？)Rochefort厉声打断，“I was at the door just now. I heard every word you said clearly! Our company has always emphasized the importance of opposing racial discrimination and respecting the works of every designer. As my assistant, you said such things, which is truly a disgrace for our company!”(我刚才在门口，你说的那些话，我听得一清二楚！我们公司一直强调，反对种族歧视，尊重每一个设计师的作品，你作为我的助理，竟然说出这样的话，简直丢了公司的脸！)

　　Draco Coppa脸色惨白，Rochefort冷冷地看了他一眼，语气严肃：“I'll handle this matter for you later. For now, get out of here!”(这件事，我会后续处理你。现在给我滚出去！)

　　Draco Coppa如蒙大赦，狠狠地瞪了沈若斐一眼，然后狼狈地转身走出了休息室。

　　Rochefort转过身，虽然脸色仍爆红，但缓过气尽量心平气和地向沈若斐道歉：“Miss Serena, on this matter, I would like to apologize on behalf of the company to you. Coppa is indeed my assistant. Before my meeting today, I did instruct him that if you were to hand over the design draft, he could receive it on your behalf. But I never expected that he would be such an unsophisticated person. Later, I will impose punishment on him. I'm sorry.”(Serena小姐，对于这件事，我代表公司向你道歉。Coppa确实是我的助理，我今天开会之前，确实嘱咐过他，如果你来交设计稿，可以让他代收，没想到他竟然是这样一个没素质的人，稍后我会对他做出惩罚，抱歉。)

　　沈若斐笑了笑，摇了摇头，语气温和：“It's okay. It's not your fault. It's Coppa's own problem. I believe your company is against racial discrimination，and I also believe you are a rational and principled person.”(没关系，您不用道歉，这不是您的错，是Coppa先生自己的问题。我相信，贵公司是反对种族歧视的，也相信您是一个明事理、讲原则的人。)

　　“Thank you so much for your understanding, Miss Serena.”(太感谢你的理解了，Serena小姐。)Rochefort接着说，“Could you please show me the design draft?”(那麻烦你把设计稿给我看看吧。)
　　沈若斐点了点头，从茶几上拿起文件夹，小心翼翼地递给Rochefort：“Rochefort, these are the ten design drafts I have prepared. They are for the autumn and winter collection of your company. There is also an explanation of my design concept included. Please have a look.”(Rochefort，这就是我准备的十张设计稿，是针对贵公司秋冬系列的设计，里面还有我的设计理念说明，麻烦您过目。)

　　Rochefort接过文件夹，仔细地翻阅着每一张设计稿，脸上的表情渐渐变得认真起来。他看得很仔细，每一个细节都不放过。
　　沈若斐坐在一旁，安静地等待着。

　　大约半个小时后，Rochefort终于看完了所有的设计稿，他抬起头，脸上露出了满意的笑容，语气赞许地说道：“Miss Serena, your design draft is excellent. It's obvious that you put a lot of effort into it. Every detail has been meticulously crafted, and the design concept is very novel and unique, perfectly aligning with the overall style of our brand's autumn and winter collection.”(Serena小姐，你的设计稿非常棒，看得出来，你非常用心，每一个细节都打磨得很精致，设计理念也很新颖、很独特，非常符合我们品牌秋冬系列的整体调性。)

　　顿了顿，他又就这份稿子提出了几点修删改和完善细节。
　　沈若斐拿出笔记本和笔，认真地记录着每一条修改意见。

　　最后，她总结道：“OK, Rochefort, I've noted all of that. Thank you very much for your valuable suggestions. After I go back, I will revise and improve the design draft as soon as possible based on your opinions. Once it's completed, I will submit it to you for review immediately.”(好的，Rochefort，我都记下了。非常感谢您提出的宝贵意见，我回去之后，会尽快根据您的意见，修改完善设计稿，修改好之后，我再第一时间交给您审核。)

　　“All right.”Rochefort笑着点了点头，将设计稿还给沈若斐，“I believe that after the revisions and improvements, your design draft will be even more outstanding. I'm looking forward to your revised version. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at any time.”(我相信，修改完善之后，你的设计稿一定会更加出色。期待你的修改版本，有任何问题，随时可以联系我。)
　　“Well,thank you Rochefort.”沈若斐接过设计稿，小心翼翼地放进文件夹里，便起身告辞：“Then I'll go back. ”(那我就先回去了。)

　　“OK. See you next time.”(好的，下次见。)

　　她走到停车场，打开车门，坐进驾驶座，将文件夹摔在副驾驶座上，头向后靠着，慢慢像泄气的皮球，泪光划过她泛红的脸庞，有些抽泣。
　　掩面，轻轻地哭泣。
　　其实来这里之前就对这种事有所预备，但没想到那个人说话那么难听，难听到她不敢再去回忆。
　　但听到那些话，心中仍是刺痛的，用实力证明但还是有人不相信这是自己的实力，到底要用多久才能被相信、被接受、被认可。

　　不知哭了多久，她发泄完了，抽出纸巾擦干泪痕，调整好心情，吸了吸鼻子，发动了车子，驶离了地下车库。

　　没有人可以做到让所有人都喜欢自己，那就在质疑声中坚持自己的理想，用强大的光芒吸引真正的追求者。
　　至于那些大喊大叫的人，就让他们被真相的口水，淹没吧。
