Reborn Troops

In Zhou Wanwan's jewelry store, the excitement of the exhibition gradually subsided, and customers left with their favorite bracelets. However, the words of the elderly customer weighed on Zhou Wanwan's heart like a heavy stone. She knew that if she wanted to make this innovative design truly successful, she would need more efforts and adjustments.

"Wanwan, should we reconsider the choice of materials?" Qianqian's voice was filled with a hint of worry.

Zhou Wanwan nodded, her eyes firm, "We need to find a material that can maintain the original texture of the hemp rope while improving the overall grade."

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian started a new round of exploration. They visited many material suppliers and tried various hemp ropes and threads. Finally, they found a special fiber thread that has the rustic feel of hemp rope but also has better gloss and feel.

"This material looks good. Let's try to see if we can use it to make a new bracelet." Qianqian said excitedly.

Zhou Wanwan agreed, and they immediately started to redesign several bracelets using the newly discovered materials. This time, the texture of the bracelets was significantly improved, retaining the original creativity while adding a sense of luxury.

Soon, Zhou Wanwan decided to hold another exhibition and invited more customers to experience the new bracelets. On the day of the exhibition, the store was bustling again, and customers' comments on the bracelets were obviously better than last time.

"This bracelet is really unique and has great texture," praised a customer.

"I like this design that combines traditional cultural elements with a modern feel." Another customer also expressed satisfaction.

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian smiled at each other, their efforts were finally recognized. However, at this moment, a young male customer asked a question, "Although these bracelets are beautiful, aren't they a bit expensive?"

Zhou Wanwan's heart tightened. She knew that price was an important factor affecting customers' purchasing decisions. After discussing with Qianqian, she decided to adjust the price appropriately and add some promotional activities to attract more customers.

While Zhou Wanwan was busy adjusting her pricing strategy, she received a call from an old customer of hers, a well-known fashion blogger, who told her that she liked the new bracelets very much and hoped to promote them on her social media.

Zhou Wanwan was excited after hearing this. She knew that this was a rare opportunity. If she could get the recommendation of this fashion blogger, her bracelet would attract more attention.

"Of course, we are very grateful for your support." Zhou Wanwan agreed immediately.

A few days later, a fashion blogger posted a recommendation about Zhou Wanwan's bracelets on social media, which quickly attracted widespread attention. Many netizens expressed their desire to buy these unique bracelets.

Zhou Wanwan's jewelry store thus ushered in a new peak in customer traffic. She and Qianqian were very busy, not only processing offline orders, but also responding to online inquiries and purchases.

However, just when the business was in full swing, Zhou Wanwan received bad news: due to problems with the supplier, the new batch of special fiber threads could not be delivered on time.

Zhou Wanwan's face suddenly became solemn. She knew that without this batch of materials, she would not be able to meet the needs of customers, which would have a significant impact on her store.

She immediately called a meeting of the store staff to discuss countermeasures. After some discussion, everyone decided to act separately and contact other suppliers to find alternative materials.

Zhou Wanwan personally contacted several suppliers, and after some effort, she finally found a supplier who could provide similar materials. Although the cost increased, at least the order could be completed.

With everyone's joint efforts, the jewelry store successfully completed all orders. Zhou Wanwan stood at the door of the store, watching all this, and felt a sense of accomplishment. She knew that this was just the beginning, and her jewelry store still had a long way to go. She looked forward to creating more miracles of childlike innocence in the future...

As Zhou Wanwan's jewelry store once again welcomed a peak in customer traffic, she and Qianqian were constantly adjusting and optimizing the product line. With the recommendation of fashion bloggers, the store's popularity quickly increased, and the number of orders also surged. However, during these busy and fulfilling days, a new challenge quietly arrived.

One afternoon, Zhou Wanwan was busy receiving customers in the store when Qianqian hurried in with a hint of anxiety on her face.

"Wanwan, I just received a message that one of our important suppliers suddenly announced that it would stop producing the special fiber thread we are using." Qianqian's voice was filled with obvious worry.

After hearing this, Zhou Wanwan's face darkened. "How is this possible? We have just expanded our production scale. If we can't find a substitute, what will happen to our orders?"

"I just found out about this too. I have contacted several other suppliers, but haven't found a suitable alternative yet," Qianqian replied.

Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath. She knew she couldn't panic at this time. "We have to find a solution as soon as possible. So, you continue to contact suppliers, and I will try to adjust the production plan to minimize the impact."

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian worked almost non-stop. They contacted countless suppliers and participated in multiple industry exchange meetings, hoping to find suitable alternative materials. However, there were not many options on the market, and they faced unprecedented pressure.

At this time, an old customer, who is also a senior jewelry designer, came to the store. He saw Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian looking anxious, so he stepped forward to ask.

"Wanwan, Qianqian, you look very anxious. What happened?" the old customer asked with concern.

Zhou Wanwan sighed and told him the situation. After listening, the old customer pondered for a while and then said, "I have a friend who is the head of a large material company. I can help you contact them and see if they have suitable materials."

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian smiled at each other, as if they saw a glimmer of hope. "Thank you so much!" Zhou Wanwan said gratefully.

The old customer called immediately. After a conversation, he hung up and said to Zhou Wanwan, "They do have a newly developed material that may meet your needs. However, they need you to come in person to discuss the cooperation in detail."

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian did not hesitate and set off for the material company the next day. After a detailed investigation and discussion, they found that this new material not only has superior performance, but also has a lower cost than the original material.

"This material is really great. We can completely use it to replace the original material." Qianqian said excitedly.

Zhou Wanwan also showed a long-lost smile, "Yes, this not only solves our urgent needs, but also brings us new development opportunities."

Back at the store, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian immediately began to adjust the production plan and apply the new material to the production of bracelets. Soon, the new bracelets were launched again, and customers gave very high praise to the new materials, and the order volume climbed again.

However, just when the business was getting back on track, Zhou Wanwan received an unexpected call from a representative of an internationally renowned jewelry brand who expressed great interest in Zhou Wanwan's designs and hoped to cooperate with her to promote these bracelets to the international market.

Zhou Wanwan was excited and nervous after hearing this. She knew that this was a huge opportunity and also a brand new challenge. She took a deep breath and said to the other end of the phone: "We are very honored to be recognized by your company. I look forward to further cooperation with you."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wanwan stood at the door of the store, looking at the busy street, her heart full of expectations. She knew that this was just the beginning, and her jewelry store still had a long way to go. She looked forward to creating more miracles of childlike innocence in the future...

As the call ended, Zhou Wanwan's heartbeat quickened. She knew that this opportunity for international cooperation might completely change her and Qianqian's lives. She turned back to the store and found Qianqian sorting out the newly arrived goods.

"Qianqian, you will never believe what just happened." Zhou Wanwan's voice was filled with irrepressible excitement.

Qianqian raised her head and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Any good news?"

"Yes, an internationally renowned jewelry brand just contacted me. They are very interested in the bracelets we designed and want to cooperate with us to promote our products to the international market," Zhou Wanwan said excitedly.

Qianqian's eyes lit up immediately, "Really? This is incredible! We need to prepare well."

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian began to get busy. They sorted out all the design drawings and prepared detailed cost analysis and market forecast reports. At the same time, they also began to consider how to adjust the production line to meet the needs of the international market.

However, just as they were preparing to take on new challenges, a new problem arose. Representatives of international brands proposed that they needed Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian to personally go to Paris to attend an important international jewelry exhibition and showcase their products at the exhibition.

"Going to Paris? We have never been abroad. This is too sudden." Qianqian said with some concern.

Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath and said, "I know this is sudden, but this is a great opportunity to showcase our products and expand our influence. We must seize it."

After some preparation, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian took their bracelet samples and boarded a plane to Paris. In Paris, they were shocked by the beauty and prosperity of the city. However, they did not have much time to enjoy the scenery because they needed to make final preparations for the upcoming jewelry exhibition.

On the day of the jewelry exhibition, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian stood nervously in front of their booth, looking at the endless stream of visitors. Their bracelets quickly attracted everyone's attention, and many people praised the bracelets made of this new material.

When the exhibition was halfway through, a lady who looked very authoritative walked to their booth. She carefully observed each bracelet and then turned to Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian.

"The designs of these bracelets are very unique, and the choice of materials is also novel. I am the vice president of the International Jewelry Association, and I am very interested in your products." The lady said with a smile.

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian smiled at each other, knowing that this was an important turning point. "Thank you very much for your recognition, we are honored to display our products here." Zhou Wanwan replied politely.

After the exhibition, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian received many cooperation intentions and orders. They knew that this trip to Paris not only made their products internationally recognized, but also opened up new markets for their brand.

However, just as they were about to return home, Zhou Wanwan received a call. It was a familiar voice on the other end of the phone, from the supplier who had suddenly stopped supplying special fiber threads.

"Zhou, I heard that you guys were a big hit at the jewelry show in Paris. I want to reconsider our cooperation"
