Chapter 324 Jade Stone
She knocked gently on the door, and Master Zhongshan's gentle voice came from inside: "Come in."
Zhou Wanwan pushed the door open and walked in. Master Zhongshan was sitting in front of a large workbench, holding a piece of exquisite jade in his hand and carving it carefully.
Seeing Zhou Wanwan coming in, he put down the tools in his hands, smiled and asked: "Wanwan, why do you have time to come to see me today?"
Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath and handed the design draft in her hand to Master Zhongshan: "Teacher, this is a bracelet I designed recently. I would like to ask you to take a look and give me some advice."
Master Zhongshan took the design and looked at it carefully for a while, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "Wanwan, your designs are becoming more and more spiritual. This dragon dumpling bracelet has both the heritage of traditional culture and the innovation of modern design. It's very good."
Zhou Wanwan was delighted when she heard the teacher's praise, but then she felt a little uneasy: "Teacher, I always feel that there are still some areas that need improvement, but I can't tell exactly where it is wrong."
Master Zhongshan nodded, put the design draft on the table, pointed to the dragon head and said: "Look here, although the lines of the dragon head are smooth, it lacks some sense of power. The dragon symbolizes power and authority in Chinese culture. Your design needs to better reflect this."
Zhou Wanwan listened carefully and nodded from time to time: "Teacher, you are right. I also felt that the faucet part was a bit thin before, but I didn't know how to improve it."
Master Zhongshan smiled slightly, took out a piece of jade from the drawer, and handed it to Zhou Wanwan: "Try to carve a dragon head with this jade and feel its texture and power."
Zhou Wanwan took the jade, feeling a little nervous. Although she had learned carving, she had never tried such a delicate work.
She picked up the carving knife and began to carve carefully on the jade.
As time passed, beads of sweat appeared on Zhou Wanwan's forehead.
She was carving with such concentration that it seemed as if the whole world had disappeared, leaving only her and the jade in her hands.
Master Sun Yat-sen watched quietly from the side, with a hint of relief in his eyes.
He knew that Zhou Wanwan was going through an important growth process.
Finally, Zhou Wanwan put down the carving knife and breathed a sigh of relief.
She handed the carved dragon head to Master Zhongshan: "Teacher, take a look, is this ok?"
Master Zhongshan took the faucet, looked at it carefully for a while, and showed a satisfied smile on his face: "Wanwan, you did a good job. This faucet has both power and refinement, which is very suitable for your design."
Zhou Wanwan was excited when she heard the teacher's affirmation. She knew that she was one step closer to success.
Just then, the door of the studio was gently pushed open and a young man walked in.
He saw Zhou Wanwan and Master Zhongshan and smiled: "Master Zhongshan, hello. I am here to pick up the jewelry I ordered."
Master Zhongshan nodded, signaled Zhou Wanwan to put away the design draft, and then said to the man: "Please wait, I will go get it."
The man nodded, his eyes stayed on Zhou Wanwan for a while, and asked with a smile: "Who is this?"
Master Zhongshan introduced: "This is my student, Zhou Wanwan. She is also an outstanding jewelry designer."
The man's eyes flashed with interest. "Oh? That's great. I'm planning a jewelry exhibition recently. Are you interested in participating?"
Zhou Wanwan was excited when she heard the news.
She knew this was a good opportunity to showcase her work. She nodded quickly: "Of course I'm interested, thank you for your invitation."
The man smiled and handed over a business card: "This is my contact information. I will notify you of the specific arrangements for the exhibition."
Zhou Wanwan took the business card, her heart full of anticipation.
She knows that her design journey has just begun and every step forward will be full of challenges and opportunities.
Master Zhongshan looked at Zhou Wanwan, with a hint of encouragement in his eyes: "Wanwan, you have to remember that design is not only an art, but also a responsibility. You have to feel every detail with your heart to create works that are truly touching."
Zhou Wanwan nodded solemnly: "Teacher, I understand. I will continue to work hard."
Master Zhongshan smiled and nodded, then turned around to get the man's custom-made jewelry.
Zhou Wanwan stood in the studio, her heart full of expectations and confidence for the future.
She knew that no matter how many difficulties lay ahead, she would move forward bravely.
