Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan sat in her jewelry store, watching the pedestrians passing by outside the window.

"Why do you always look so sad lately?" My best friend pushed the door open and came in, holding a cup of coffee in her hand, and asked with a smile.

Zhou Wanwan sighed, "Business is not good, how can I not be worried?"

Qianqian walked to the counter and put down her coffee. "The jewelry in your store is all high-quality. How come your business is not good? Is it because you don't promote it enough?"

"We did a lot of publicity, but no one came." Zhou Wanwan said helplessly.

Qianqian rolled her eyes and suddenly thought of something, "I have an idea. Have you heard of the Beatles?"

"Beetle? Do you mean that little bug?" Zhou Wanwan asked puzzledly.

"No, I mean the Beatles!" Qianqian explained with a smile, "Their music style is unique and has influenced several generations. I think you can design a bracelet with the Beatles as the theme, which will definitely attract a lot of customers."

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea, why didn't I think of it?"

"Then let's get started!" Qianqian encouraged.

Zhou Wanwan nodded and began to conceive her new work. She found various materials, from shells to metals, from beads to silk threads, and placed them on the table one by one.

She imagined the music of the Beatles, that free-spirited feeling, that unruly soul.

She decided to incorporate this feeling into the design of the bracelet.

Zhou Wanwan sat in front of the workbench, moving the tools in her hand between the materials, but her thoughts drifted far away.

The design of the beetle bracelet had taken shape, but she always felt that something was missing.

Although Qianqian's suggestions were good, they didn't seem to be enough to impress those picky customers.

"Wanwan, what are you thinking about?" Qianqian's voice suddenly came from behind, interrupting her thoughts.

Zhou Wanwan looked up and saw Qianqian holding a bouquet of flowers in her hand, with morning dew still on the petals.

"I was thinking that although the beetle bracelet is creative, it still feels like something is missing."

She smiled lightly and placed the flowers on the table, "Maybe you could add some lucky flowers."

"Lucky flower?" Zhou Wanwan looked at Qianqian puzzledly.

"Yes, each flower has its own language and meaning. For example, this bunch of lilies represents purity and happiness; and this rose symbolizes love and romance." Qianqian explained, pointing to the flowers on the table.

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up. "That's a good idea! I can incorporate these flower elements into the design of the bracelets, so that each bracelet will carry a different blessing."

"That's right, and you can also customize different lucky flower bracelets according to the customer's needs." Qianqian added.

Zhou Wanwan nodded excitedly, "Then I have to get started!"

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan immersed herself in design and production.

She incorporates different flower elements into beetle bracelets, making each bracelet unique.

Some bracelets are inlaid with small lilies, symbolizing purity and happiness; some bracelets are dotted with rose petals, exuding a romantic atmosphere; and some bracelets are inlaid with four-leaf clovers, representing luck and hope.

In Zhou Wanwan's studio, the lighting is soft and the air is filled with the faint scent of shells and metal.

She was concentrating on making bracelets, and each one embodied her hard work and creativity.

At this moment, Master Zhongshan pushed the door open and walked in. His arrival instantly made the atmosphere in the entire studio solemn.

"I have seen your work, it is very creative." Master Zhongshan's voice was low and powerful, with a hint of appreciation.

Zhou Wanwan raised her head, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, "Teacher, you are here! I was just about to ask you some questions."

Master Zhongshan walked to the workbench and carefully examined Zhou Wanwan's work. "The designs of these bracelets are very innovative, especially the incorporation of flower elements, which is very clever. However, I have a suggestion."

"What suggestions?" Zhou Wanwan asked anxiously.

"You can try to use shell surfaces to replace some of the metal materials. This will make the bracelet more delicate and have more of an ocean feel." Master Zhongshan said, pointing to the shells on the table.

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up, "Shell noodles? This is a great idea! Why didn't I think of it?"

Master Zhongshan smiled and nodded, "The texture and luster of the shells can add more layers and artistry to your work. You can give it a try."

Zhou Wanwan excitedly picked up a shell and began to think about how to incorporate it into the bracelet.

She carefully polished the shell, cut it into the right shape, and then set it in the metal frame of the bracelet.

As she moved, a new bracelet gradually took shape. The luster of the shell and the texture of the metal complemented each other, making it look particularly exquisite.

"Teacher, what do you think of this bracelet?" Zhou Wanwan handed the newly made bracelet to Master Zhongshan.

Master Zhongshan took the bracelet and examined it carefully. "Yes, the addition of shells makes the bracelet more vivid and has a more marine flavor. However, you can also try to carve some patterns on the shells, which will make the bracelet more artistic."

Zhou Wanwan nodded, "I understand, teacher. I will try to carve some flower patterns on the shells, which can keep the theme of the bracelet while adding more details."

Just then, Qianqian pushed the door open and walked in, holding a bouquet of fresh lilies in her hand.

When she saw Master Zhongshan was there, she immediately greeted him respectfully, "Master Zhongshan, hello!"

Master Zhongshan smiled and nodded, "Qianqian, you're here at the right time. Wanwan is trying out a new design, you can give her some suggestions."

Qianqian walked to the workbench and saw the newly made bracelet by Zhou Wanwan. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, "Wanwan, this bracelet is so beautiful! The addition of shells makes the bracelet more unique."

Zhou Wanwan smiled and nodded, "These are all teacher's suggestions. I was planning to carve some flower patterns on the shells."

Qianqian's eyes lit up. "That's a good idea! However, you can also consider carving some beetle patterns on the shells. This will not only echo the theme of the bracelet, but also add more fun."

Zhou Wanwan thought for a moment, "A beetle pattern? That's a good idea! I can try to carve some beetle outlines on the shells, which can keep the ocean atmosphere of the bracelet and echo the theme of the Beatles."
