Reborn Troops

Master Zhongshan smiled and said, "Wanwan, have you ever thought that the loneliness and regret of sunset are actually people's helplessness towards time and uncertainty about the future?"

“You can try adding some time-symbolizing elements to your necklace, like an hourglass or a clock.”

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up: "Hourglass! This is a great idea! I can design a hidden hourglass. When the color of the necklace changes, the hourglass will flow with it, symbolizing the passage of time."

Zhou Wanwan's design inspiration gushed out like a spring, and she began to draw a unique hourglass shape on the sketch, with every grain of sand in the hourglass being extremely fine.

She wanted the hourglass to be the soul of the necklace. As the color of the necklace changed, the sand in the hourglass would flow slowly, symbolizing the passage of time.

"Teacher, what do you think of this design?" Zhou Wanwan showed the latest sketch to Master Zhongshan.

Master Zhongshan stared at the screen, his eyes flashing with approval: "Very good, Wanwan. This design perfectly combines the beauty of the sunset and the passage of time. It is very profound."

When Zhou Wanwan heard Master Zhongshan's praise, a warm feeling surged in her heart.

She knew that this necklace was not just a piece of jewelry, but also a symbol of emotion, a feeling about time and a reflection on life.

However, just as Zhou Wanwan was about to further improve the design, she suddenly received a text message from an unknown number: "Your design is good, but I'm interested in your hourglass. We can talk."

This text message left Zhou Wanwan confused and puzzled.

She had no idea who was expressing interest in her design, but her instincts told her that this person could be an important influence on her new design.

Zhou Wanwan replied: "May I ask who you are? I am very interested in your interests."

Soon, a new text message appeared on the phone: "I am Li Paris, a collector. I am very interested in the hourglass necklace you designed, and I would like to purchase its design copyright."

Zhou Wanwan looked at the text message with a mixture of surprise and joy. She knew that this was a rare opportunity, but she also knew that this necklace had a special meaning to her.

"Can you please meet me in person and talk?" Zhou Wanwan replied.

The next day, Zhou Wanwan and Li Bali met in a luxurious hotel conference room.

Li Paris is a graceful middle-aged man whose eyes reveal his love and appreciation for art.

"I am very interested in your design. I think your hourglass necklace has huge market potential." Li Paris expressed his intention straight to the point.

Zhou Wanwan sat there and answered calmly: "Mr. Li, this necklace is not just a design for me, it is my thinking and my emotions. I don't want it to just be a tool to make money."

There was a hint of surprise in Li Bali's eyes. He didn't expect that the young designer would have such a firm stance.

He smiled and said, "I respect your idea. I can guarantee that if you agree to sell the design copyright, I will have this necklace exhibited at the best jewelry exhibition in the world and give it the honor it deserves."

Zhou Wanwan was silent for a moment, she knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

But she also knew that this necklace meant a lot to her.

"Mr. Li, I would like to ask you to give me some time to think about it." Zhou Wanwan finally made a decision.

Li Paris nodded to show her understanding: "Of course, I will wait for your reply."

Zhou Wanwan sent Li Bali away and returned to her studio. She looked at the sketch on the wall, her heart full of contradictions.

She knew that the copyright of the necklace design would be a huge challenge for her...

But she also knows that this necklace is a treasure in her heart, reflecting her feelings about time and her thoughts on life.

Just as Zhou Wanwan was hesitating, Qianqian walked in: "Wanwan, what are you hesitating about? I know this necklace has a special meaning to you, but you also see that this is an opportunity for your design to go global."

Zhou Wanwan looked at Qianqian, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She knew that Qianqian had always been her strongest supporter.

"Qianqian, I know you are right. But I'm really not sure whether I should sell the design copyright of this necklace." Zhou Wanwan sighed.

Qianqian sat next to Zhou Wanwan and gently held her hand: "Wanwan, you have put in a lot of effort and sweat. This necklace is your hard work and your emotions."

“But you also see that this is an opportunity for your design to be more widely recognized. You should consider whether you are willing to share your design so that more people can feel its beauty.”

Zhou Wanwan looked at Qianqian, her heart filled with gratitude. She knew that Qianqian had always been by her side, supporting her and encouraging her.
