Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan turned to Qianqian and said, "Qianqian, go contact the gemstone supplier we have worked with before and see if you can borrow some high-quality gemstones."

Qianqian nodded in agreement and immediately took out her phone to start making calls. Zhou Wanwan returned to her workbench and began to think about how to perfectly combine the gemstone with the image of the coffee cat.

Zhou Wanwan returned to the workbench, the image of the coffee cat kept appearing in her mind. She knew that this competition was not only to prove her design concept, but also to defend the status of the coffee cat in people's hearts.

She took a deep breath and began sketching a preliminary design on paper.

Just then, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Master Zhongshan calling.

Zhou Wanwan quickly picked up the phone, with a hint of anxiety in her tone: "Hello, teacher, I am preparing to participate in a competition about coffee cat design. Can you give me some advice?"

Master Zhongshan's voice was steady and powerful: "Wanwan, I heard about your situation. Design is not just external decoration, but more importantly, the inner emotions and concepts."

"You have to remember that the nobility of the coffee cat is not only reflected in its appearance, but also in the spirit it represents."

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "Teacher, I understand. Through this design, I want to convey that coffee cats are not only a symbol of nobility, but can also be cute, interesting, and even close to people's lives."

Master Zhongshan smiled and said, "Very good, Wanwan. You have to remember that the core of design is the transmission of emotions. You can try to combine the image of the coffee cat with some symbolic elements, such as time, memories, or a certain emotion."

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up, and she immediately added some new elements to the sketch, such as a miniature clock, symbolizing the passage of time, and a heart-shaped photo frame, representing precious memories.

While painting, she continued to communicate with Master Sun Yat-sen.

"Teacher, I have another idea. I want to add some gems to the design, but not just as decoration, but as a carrier of emotion. For example, use a sapphire to represent tranquility and a ruby ​​to represent passion."

Master Zhongshan nodded approvingly: "Very good, Wanwan. Gems are not only a symbol of nobility, they can also carry different emotions and meanings. You have to remember that design is not only a visual enjoyment, but also a touch of the soul."

At this moment, Qianqian hurried into the studio with a hint of excitement on her face: "Wanwan, the gem supplier agreed to lend us some high-quality gems, including sapphires, rubies and emeralds."

Zhou Wanwan was delighted and she immediately incorporated these gem elements into the design.

She decided to inlay sapphires in the eyes of the coffee cat, symbolizing wisdom and tranquility; rubies in the collar of the coffee cat, representing passion and vitality; and emeralds as the claws of the coffee cat, symbolizing tenacity and strength.

After the design was completed, Zhou Wanwan showed the sketch to Qianqian and Master Zhongshan.

Qianqian exclaimed: "Wanwan, this design is amazing! The image of the coffee cat is not only noble, but also full of emotions and stories."

Master Zhongshan also nodded in approval: "Wanwan, your design has gone beyond simple decoration. It has become an expression of emotion. I believe that this design will definitely touch people's hearts."

The day of the competition finally arrived, and Zhou Wanwan brought her design to the competition site.

Lu Yueyue had been waiting there for a long time. Her design was equally gorgeous, but seemed to lack some emotional depth.

The competition venue was crowded with people and brightly lit, and the works of major designers sparkled brightly on the booths.

Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath and carefully placed her design, the coffee cat that combined time, memories and emotions, on the stand.

Her designs immediately attracted a lot of attention, and people stopped to appreciate the details.

Lu Yueyue stood not far away. Her design was equally eye-catching, but there was a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

She walked up to Zhou Wanwan and forced a smile: "Wanwan, your design is really special. However, the result of the competition does not necessarily depend only on the design itself."

Zhou Wanwan smiled slightly. She knew there was something hidden in Lu Yueyue's words, but she didn't care: "Yueyue, the core of design lies in the transmission of emotions. I believe that works that truly touch people do not need any external decoration."

At this time, the judges began to review the works on the booth one by one.

Master Zhongshan, as one of the judges, kept his eyes on Zhou Wanwan's design for a long time. He walked up to Zhou Wanwan and asked softly, "Wanwan, your design incorporates many emotional elements. Can you tell me how you came up with these?"

Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Teacher, I have always believed that design is not only a visual enjoyment, but also a touch of the soul."

“The image of the coffee cat itself is full of warmth and companionship, and the passage of time, precious memories, and the emotions represented by different gemstones are all indispensable parts of our lives. I hope that through this design, people can feel the power of these emotions.”

Master Zhongshan nodded, with a glimmer of approval in his eyes: "Very good, Wanwan. Your design has gone beyond simple decoration and has become an expression of emotion. I believe that this design will definitely touch people's hearts."

Just as the judges were about to make their final decision, suddenly, the lights on the booth flickered, and then the lights in the entire exhibition hall went out, plunging into darkness. Some people in the crowd exclaimed, and some whispered.

Zhou Wanwan's heart tightened, she was worried that her design would be damaged in this sudden darkness.

She groped her way to the booth, trying to protect her work.

At this moment, a faint light shone from her body. It was the light of sapphire, which appeared particularly bright in the darkness.

The judges were also attracted by this sudden change. They all walked to Zhou Wanwan's booth and looked at the glowing coffee cat in surprise.

Master Zhongshan said softly: "Wanwan, your design not only impresses us visually, it can also transmit light even in the dark. This is the highest realm of design."

Lu Yueyue stood aside, her face turned pale.

She knew that she had lost the advantage in this game. She bit her lip unwillingly and whispered, "Wanwan, you win."

Zhou Wanwan did not show the joy of victory. She just looked at Lu Yueyue calmly and said softly: "Yueyue, design is not only a competition, but also a transmission of emotions. I hope we can all find our own light in design."

The lights finally returned to normal and the judges began to announce the results of the competition.

When they announced that Zhou Wanwan's work won the highest award, the audience burst into warm applause.

Zhou Wanwan stood in front of the booth with tears in her eyes. She knew that this award was not only a recognition of her design, but also an affirmation of her emotional expression.

Master Zhongshan walked up to Zhou Wanwan and said with a smile: "Wanwan, you have surpassed yourself. Remember, the core of design lies in the transmission of emotions, and you have done it."

Zhou Wanwan nodded. She knew that this competition was just the beginning and her design journey was still long, but she had already found her own direction.

She will continue to move forward with this emotion and touch more people's hearts with her designs.
