Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan took the sketch, looked at it carefully, and felt even more troubled.

The design on the sketch was extremely complex and completely beyond her ability.

She hesitated for a moment and said, "This design... may require more time and materials. We..."

"It's okay, I can wait." Zhang Dian interrupted her, "But I hope you can give me a satisfactory plan as soon as possible."

Zhou Wanwan nodded, but she felt even more nervous. She knew that this design would be a huge challenge.

Back at the store, Zhou Wanwan immediately showed the sketch to Qianqian. Qianqian took a few glances and frowned:

"This design... is indeed a bit complicated. But we can give it a try."

Zhou Wanwan stood in Master Sun Yat-sen's studio, tightly clutching the complicated sketch in her hand, her heart in turmoil.

Master Zhongshan is her mentor in the jewelry design industry. Although he has retired for many years, his experience and vision are still a benchmark in the industry.

Zhou Wanwan knew that if even Master Zhongshan felt that this design was difficult to implement, then she might really be powerless.

"Teacher, please take a look at this design. I... I really don't know how to start." Zhou Wanwan handed the sketch to Master Zhongshan with a hint of pleading in her tone.

Master Sun Yat-sen took the sketch, put on his reading glasses, and looked at it carefully for a few minutes.

His brows were slightly furrowed, then relaxed, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"This design... is indeed very interesting." Master Zhongshan put down the sketch and looked up at Zhou Wanwan.

"However, it is also quite difficult. Are you sure you want to take this order?"

Zhou Wanwan bit her lip and nodded: "Yes, teacher. I think this is a challenge.

It’s also an opportunity. If I can complete this design, maybe it can take my jewelry store to the next level.”

Master Zhongshan nodded, with a glimmer of approval in his eyes: "Very good, it is a good idea to have such an idea.

However, you have to understand that this design is not only a test of your skills, but also a test of your creativity and patience. "

"I understand, teacher." Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath, "Can you give me some advice?"

When Zhou Wanwan heard Master Zhongshan's suggestion, her eyes lit up: "Beeswax? Teacher, do you mean to make the candy into the texture of beeswax?"

Master Zhongshan nodded and tapped the sketch lightly with his fingers:

"That's right. Beeswax has a warm color and a transparent texture. It has the sweet feeling of candy, but it is more advanced than ordinary candy materials.

Moreover, beeswax is very malleable and can be made into complex shapes, which just meets Zhang Dian’s requirements.”

Zhou Wanwan nodded thoughtfully, but soon frowned again:

“However, the production process of beeswax is very complicated and I have never tried it.

Moreover, the cost of beeswax is much higher than that of ordinary materials. I am afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?" Master Zhongshan interrupted her with a hint of severity in his tone.

“Since you have decided to take this order, you must have the courage to face difficulties.

Although the production process of beeswax is complicated, it is not impossible to master. I can teach you, but the prerequisite is that you have enough patience and perseverance. "

Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath and nodded: "I understand, teacher. I will work hard."

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan spent almost all her time in the studio.

Master Zhongshan taught her step by step how to select the raw materials of beeswax, and how to heat, shape and polish it.

Each step is extremely delicate, and any mistake will result in failure. Zhou Wanwan's fingers were burned several times, but she gritted her teeth and persevered.

However, just when she finally mastered the basic production process of beeswax and was ready to start formally producing Zhang Dian's design, an accident occurred.

"Wanwan, something bad has happened!" Qianqian hurried into the studio with a document in her hand.

"I just received news that Zhang Dian's company suddenly announced that it would cancel all unfinished orders, including ours!"

Zhou Wanwan almost dropped the beeswax in her hand. She widened her eyes and asked, "What? Why?"

"I heard that the company had financial problems and its funding chain was broken.

They had to urgently reduce their business." Qianqian's tone was filled with anxiety.

"What should we do? We have invested so much time and energy in this design. Are we just going to give up?"

Zhou Wanwan was silent for a few seconds, then shook her head: “No, we can’t give up.

Even if Zhang Dian's company cancels the order, we will still make this design. This is not only for the order, but also to prove ourselves."

Qianqian hesitated: "But the cost of beeswax is so high. If we make it and no one buys it, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

"I have an idea." Zhou Wanwan's eyes flashed with determination, "We can make this design into a limited edition.

Just make a few pieces and promote them through social media and jewelry shows. The unique texture of beeswax will definitely attract a lot of attention.”

Qianqian thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I support you. But we have to hurry up, there are only two weeks left until next month's jewelry exhibition."

In the following days, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian worked almost day and night.

They not only have to complete the production of beeswax candy jewelry, but also design exhibition booths, take promotional photos, and contact the media. Every day is like a race against time.
