Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan sat in her jewelry store, holding a piece of paper in her hand, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

She has been working in this industry for several years and has designed countless necklaces, bracelets, and rings.

But this theme - "scars cut by time" - made her feel more difficult than ever before.

"Wanwan, what are you looking at?" A shallow voice came from the door.

She walked into the store with a cup of coffee in her hand. Qianqian is Zhou Wanwan's old friend and her right-hand man.

"Qianqian, you're here just in time." Zhou Wanwan raised her head and handed the paper to Qianqian.

"Look at this. Zhou Xiaomin asked me to design a necklace with the theme of 'scars cut by time', and it should also combine the beauty of scar elements and glass fragments."

Qianqian took the paper, looked at it carefully, and frowned.

"This theme sounds quite complicated. How do scars and glass fragments fit together?"

"Yeah, I think so too." Zhou Wanwan sighed, "I have been thinking,

How can we combine these two elements harmoniously and create a subtle effect? ​​"

Qianqian put down the coffee cup, walked to Zhou Wanwan, and patted her shoulder. "Don't worry, Wanwan, let's think about it together."

The two sat in the shop, lost in thought. Time passed by, and the clock in the shop ticked, as if urging them on.

"Wanwan, do you think scars and glass fragments have anything in common?" Qianqian suddenly asked.

"What do they have in common?" Zhou Wanwan was stunned for a moment. "Scars are traces of time, and glass fragments are broken beauty. They..."

"Yes, scars are traces of time, and glass fragments are broken beauty." Qianqian interrupted her.

“You can think of them as two manifestations of time, one painful and one beautiful.”

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up, as if she had grasped something. "You mean, I can combine them together,

Let people feel the pain of time and the beauty of brokenness when they see the necklace? "

"That's right!" Qianqian nodded. "You can use glass fragments to represent the shape of the scar, and then string them together with metal wires.

This allowed me to show the shape of the scar while also showing the beauty of the shards of glass.”

A design emerged in Zhou Wanwan's mind, and she stood up excitedly.

She walked to the workbench, picked up the tools and started working. Qianqian followed her and helped her design.

The two worked for an entire afternoon and finally designed a preliminary necklace.

Zhou Wanwan picked up the necklace, looked at it carefully, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

"Qianqian, you are amazing!" Zhou Wanwan said excitedly, "This design is simply perfect!"

She smiled lightly, "Don't be too happy, we still have to perfect it."

Just then, there was a sound of footsteps at the door of the store, and Zhou Xiaomin walked in. When she saw the necklace in Zhou Wanwan's hand, her eyes lit up.

"Wanwan, is this the necklace you designed?" Zhou Xiaomin asked.

"Yes, Xiaomin." Zhou Wanwan nodded, "This is our preliminary design, what do you think?"

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy. Zhou Xiaomin was their old customer.

She is also a discerning fashion expert, and her opinions can often determine the success or failure of a work.

"Xiao Min, what do you think of this design?" Zhou Wanwan asked cautiously, trying to read her thoughts from Zhou Xiaomin's expression.

Zhou Xiaomin did not answer immediately, but walked to the workbench and looked at the necklace carefully.

Her fingers slid lightly over the shards of glass and metal wire, her brows furrowed slightly.

"Wanwan, this design is indeed very creative," Zhou Xiaomin finally spoke, "but I always feel that it is missing something."

"What's missing?" Qianqian couldn't help but ask. She hoped Zhou Xiaomin could give some specific suggestions.

Zhou Xiaomin raised her head, her eyes moving between the two of them. "Your design is very well presented.

The theme of scars and broken glass works, but I feel like it’s missing some fashion elements.

The current design is unique, but it may not be eye-catching enough.”

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian exchanged glances. They knew that Zhou Xiaomin was right.

Although this necklace is creative, in the fashion world, creativity alone is not enough, it also needs to be attractive enough.

"So how do you think we should improve?" Zhou Wanwan asked. She hoped Zhou Xiaomin could give some specific suggestions.

Zhou Xiaomin thought for a while, then said: "I think you can add some shiny elements to the necklace, such as crystals or diamonds.

This not only adds to the fashion sense of the necklace, but also makes it more dazzling under the light.”

Zhou Wanwan nodded. She thought this suggestion made sense. "Then let's try adding some crystals. What do you think?"

Qianqian agreed: "I think crystals are a good idea. They can add brightness to the necklace and contrast with the glass fragments."

After the three of them reached an agreement, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian immediately started to take action.

They selected some transparent crystals from the material cabinet and carefully inlaid them between the glass fragments.

With the addition of crystals, the texture of the necklace is immediately improved a lot, and the originally slightly dull design becomes dazzling.

"This looks much better," Qianqian said with satisfaction, "Xiaomin, how do you feel now?"

Zhou Xiaomin looked at the necklace carefully again and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

"Yes, it looks much more fashionable now. However, I think it could be enhanced with something else."

"What else do you want to add?" Zhou Wanwan asked. She was already a little tired, but in order to meet Zhou Xiaomin's request, she still cheered up.

"I think we can add a small clock to the pendant part of the necklace," Zhou Xiaomin suggested.

"This not only better expresses the theme of 'scars cut by time', but also increases the uniqueness of the necklace."

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian were both stunned for a moment. This proposal was indeed very creative, but it also brought new challenges.

The addition of a clock requires not only precise design but also consideration of the overall balance of the necklace.
