Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan's jewelry store is located on a busy street in the city center and is decorated warmly and exquisitely.

Every piece of jewelry in the store is designed by her personally, and she has poured her heart and soul into every step, from material selection to polishing.

Zhou Wanwan is a typical Jiangnan woman, gentle and tough. Although her jewelry store is not big, it is well-known in the area, especially the unique pendants she designed, which are often loved by customers.

However, business has been a little slow recently, and Zhou Wanwan can't help feeling a little anxious.

She comes to the store early every day, cleans, organizes the goods, and then sits behind the counter, quietly waiting for customers to come.

She knew that if she wanted her business to grow better and better, it was not enough to just wait, she needed more creativity and inspiration.

At this critical moment, Zhou Wanwan met a customer named Sun Jiu.

Sun Jiu is a middle-aged man who is well-dressed and has elegant manners. He looks like a man of taste.

He walked into the store, looked around, and his eyes finally fell on Zhou Wanwan.

"Hello, can I customize jewelry here?" Sun Jiu's voice was low and magnetic.

Zhou Wanwan quickly stood up and replied with a smile: "Of course, sir, do you have any special requests?"

Sun Jiu smiled slightly, took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Wanwan: "I want to customize a car key pendant with a donkey in the background, is that okay?"

Zhou Wanwan took the photo and looked at it carefully. It showed a cute little donkey leisurely eating grass on the grass.

She was shocked; this was the first time she had encountered such a design requirement.

"Little donkey?" Zhou Wanwan asked doubtfully, "Do you want a pendant with a little donkey as the theme?"

Sun Jiu nodded, with a hint of mystery in his eyes: "Yes, I hope this pendant can be hung on the key of my beloved car."

Zhou Wanwan was a little nervous, as such a design requirement was indeed a challenge for her.

She pondered for a moment, then said, "Sir, I need some time to come up with a design like this. Can you give me a few days?"

Sun Jiu smiled slightly and nodded: "Of course, I believe your design will satisfy me."

After seeing Sun Jiu off, Zhou Wanwan sat behind the counter, feeling a little uneasy.

She knew that this design was a big challenge for her, but she didn't want to lose this opportunity.

She picked up the photo and looked at the little donkey carefully, secretly making up her mind that she must make this design well.

Just then, her best friend Qianqian walked in.

Qianqian is a lively and cheerful girl. She grew up with Zhou Wanwan and they can talk about anything.

As soon as she entered the room, she saw Zhou Wanwan looking sad, and couldn't help asking, "Wanwan, what's wrong with you? You don't look very happy."

Zhou Wanwan sighed and told Qianqian about Sun Jiu’s request.

After listening to this, Qianqian's eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this? It's just a little donkey, right? You are the most talented designer here, this little thing won't be difficult for you."

Zhou Wanwan smiled bitterly and shook her head: "But I have never designed a pendant like this before, and the other party's requirements are very special. I am afraid I can't do it well."

Qianqian patted Zhou Wanwan on the shoulder and encouraged her, "Don't worry, I believe you can do it. Besides, don't you think this design is interesting? The little donkey is so cute!"

After hearing Qianqian's words, Zhou Wanwan felt a little more relaxed.

She knew that Qianqian could always bring her inspiration and courage. She decided not to think too much and just draw the design first.

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan devoted herself to the design.

She pondered the photo over and over again, trying to find inspiration in it.

She drew countless sketches, but she never felt satisfied. She began to feel anxious and even doubted whether she could really complete the design.

Just when she was about to give up, Qianqian came again.

She saw Zhou Wanwan's desk piled with sketches and couldn't help laughing: "Wanwan, are you trying to tire yourself to death?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I really can't find any inspiration. This design is too difficult."

Qianqian picked up a sketch, looked at it carefully, and then said, "I think you are too rigid about the formality. Why don't you try to think from another angle?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at Qianqian in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Qianqian smiled mysteriously: "For example, you can combine the donkey and the car key to design a pendant that is both interesting and practical."

Zhou Wanwan's heart moved after hearing Qianqian's words.

She suddenly realized that she had been focusing on how to perfectly present the image of the little donkey, but had overlooked the practicality of the pendant.

She decided to change her thinking and start designing again.

Zhou Wanwan decided to visit Master Zhongshan and seek his advice.

Master Zhongshan is a famous local jewelry designer, known for his unique creativity and exquisite craftsmanship.

Zhou Wanwan brought her sketch and the photo of the little donkey to Master Zhongshan's studio.

Master Nakayama's studio is located in an ancient courtyard on the outskirts of the city, surrounded by lush bamboo forests.

Zhou Wanwan walked into the studio and saw Master Zhongshan busy at a huge workbench.

"Master Zhongshan, I'm sorry to bother you." Zhou Wanwan said softly.

Master Zhongshan raised his head and saw that it was Zhou Wanwan. He smiled and nodded: "Wanwan, you are here. What's the matter?"

Zhou Wanwan handed the sketches and photos to Master Zhongshan, and explained in detail Sun Jiu's requirements and her own confusion.

Master Zhongshan looked at the sketches and photos carefully, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Wanwan, your design idea actually has great potential, but it just needs some adjustments."

Zhou Wanwan asked anxiously: "Master, do you have any suggestions?"
