Reborn Troops

"Yes, a light bulb." Master Zhongshan explained, "The shape of the garlic flower itself is very much like a small light bulb.

If it is designed to look like a light bulb, it not only retains the characteristics of the garlic flower, but also gives it new functions and meanings.”

"Function and significance?" Zhou Wanwan asked puzzledly.

"Yes." Master Zhongshan picked up the silver nugget and gently turned it in his hand, "It can be made into a glowing piece of jewelry.

In this way, the garlic flower is not only a decoration, but also emits a warm glow in the dark, symbolizing hope and vitality.”

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian were stunned and shocked by Master Zhongshan's creativity.

They originally just wanted to design an ordinary piece of jewelry, but they didn't expect Master Zhongshan to come up with such a unique idea.

"Teacher, you are so amazing!" Zhou Wanwan said excitedly, with excitement flashing in her eyes, "This is a great idea, why didn't I think of it!"

Qianqian nodded repeatedly, "Yes, the design of the light bulb not only solves the problem of the hard texture of the silver block, but also increases the functionality of the jewelry. It's really killing two birds with one stone!"

Master Zhongshan smiled and said, "This is just a preliminary idea. You have to figure out how to do it."

"Teacher, can you tell me more about it?" Zhou Wanwan asked impatiently. She was completely attracted by Master Zhongshan's creativity.

"Of course." Master Zhongshan nodded and began to explain his idea in detail. He suggested hollowing out the inside of the silver block.

The shape of the garlic flower is retained on the outside, and some small patterns can be added to the surface to increase the sense of layering.

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian listened carefully, and wrote down Master Zhongshan's suggestions in their notebooks from time to time.

Their hearts were filled with inspiration, as if they saw a perfect work taking shape before their eyes.

Zhou Wanwan held a pencil, her brows furrowed, her eyes wandering on the blank drawing.

Her fingers trembled slightly, as if she was searching for something, but she couldn't put pen to paper.

"Wanwan, what's wrong with you?" Qianqian noticed her abnormality and asked softly.

"I... I don't know how to draw." Zhou Wanwan's voice was a little low, with a hint of frustration.

"The teacher's ideas are so good, but I always feel that my design can't keep up with his ideas."

Qian Qian gently patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, take your time. Master Zhongshan's creativity is indeed amazing.

But it’s also a challenge, isn’t it? You can try to start with the details and take it step by step.”

Zhou Wanwan raised her head, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, "But I don't even know how to take the first step."

Qian Qian thought for a moment and suggested, "How about we start with the shape of the garlic flower?

Haven’t you always loved observing plants? Maybe we can go to a flower shop and find some inspiration.”

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up slightly, "Yes, why didn't I think of that!

The shape of the garlic flower is actually very special. Its petals are layered like small lanterns.

If we can capture that, maybe we can come up with something unique.”

"Then let's go now!" Qianqian smiled and took her hand, "Maybe we can find some unexpected inspiration."

The two hurriedly packed up their things and left the studio. The sun outside was shining on the street, and the air was filled with a faint floral scent.

They walked into a flower shop. The flower stands inside were filled with all kinds of flowers, colorful and dazzling.

"Look, those garlic flowers over there!" Qianqian said excitedly, pointing to a cluster of small white flowers in the corner.

Zhou Wanwan walked over quickly and carefully observed the shape of the garlic flower.

Its petals are slender and soft, wrapped together in layers, like small lanterns, exuding a faint fragrance.

"Its petals are really special," Zhou Wanwan murmured to herself.

“If we can express this soft texture with silver, perhaps we can solve the problem mentioned by Master Nakayama.”

Qianqian nodded, "Yes, and you can also add some fine lines on the surface to increase the layering."

Just then, the owner of the flower shop came over and asked with a smile, "Are you interested in garlic flowers?"

"Yes," Zhou Wanwan replied politely, "We are designing a piece of jewelry with garlic flowers as the theme and we are looking for some inspiration."

The boss's eyes lit up. "Oh? Garlic flower jewelry? That's a fresh idea.

I have some garlic flower seeds here, would you like to take a look?"

"Seeds?" Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian looked at each other and asked curiously, "Can seeds also give us inspiration?"

The boss smiled and nodded, "Of course. The seeds of garlic flowers are also very special. They look like small light bulbs.

There are some fine lines on the surface. Perhaps you can find some new ideas from here.”

Zhou Wanwan took the seeds from the boss and looked at them carefully. As expected, the shape of the seeds was somewhat similar to the petals of garlic flowers.

But it is more rounded, and there are some tiny bumps on the surface, like traces of wind.

"This shape..." Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up slightly, "If we design the jewelry to look like a seed, perhaps we can solve the problem of the silver block's hard texture."

Qianqian also came over to take a look and nodded in agreement, "Yes, the seeds are more rounded.

There are some fine lines on the surface, which can increase the layering of the jewelry and also show the characteristics of garlic flowers. "

Zhou Wanwan excitedly took out her notebook and began to sketch the shape of the seeds on paper. Her strokes gradually became smoother, as if she had found the source of inspiration.
