Chapter 172: The Secret of Winter

Then Jason himself said goodbye and left, leaving Ding Lei to think about it alone. He didn't point to him and didn't point fingers to help him figure out a way and set a strategy. He didn't want to meddle too much, saving Ding Lei from being suspicious and timid, which was not conducive to his performance.

Jia Lan didn't know anything about any of this, and she didn't pay attention to Jason's curve battle or Jia Qian's clear demonstration. She is now so immersed in design that she has actively closed her senses to the outside world.

Her mind is now full of the theme of this winter design - winter love song, which is clearly winter and love. The meaning is actually similar to that I have a date with winter. The representatives of winter can think of snowflakes and Bingling, as well as plum blossoms that Ling Han blooms alone, but this theme has been used indiscriminately in previous years, whether it is the original version, the cartoon version, or the very creative Q version, someone has designed it.

Jia Lan has not been in vain these days, almost all the representative jewelry she liked in previous years has passed, as well as the jewelry of major jewelry brands, and she also has a bottom in her heart. But it's because she has the bottom in her heart that she is even more constrained, because almost all the themes she can think of have been designed, and you say that she doesn't have a headache. What's more, there is a love song added to the back of winter, which is not just as simple as presenting winter.

So it's nerve-wracking. Of course, it's not just Jialan who thinks so, but other designers too. The more experienced you are, the more difficult it is. Design requires innovation, but can it be innovated every year? All the themes that can be used have been used, so how can they be creative. But no matter how troubled the old designers are, they also have a foundation, and they can still do it if they want to design a decent work, but in order to compete, they need to put new wine in old bottles.

Jialan has two design experiences, but this time there is no hurry. Life is full of inspiration, and during her lunch break, she spends her days wandering around the neighborhood street shops to see if she can find it. Xiaoxiao fell in love, and naturally devoted all the time at noon to her boyfriend, and Jialan went out alone at noon. However, she didn't ask the manager for leave anymore, and she was embarrassed to trouble her again for the sake of resignation.

The autumn sun is still a little too warm when it shines on me. Under the shade trees on the side of the street, there are all golden fallen leaves, and people walk over and step on the fallen leaves, making a rustling sound, which is crisp and pleasant. Her eyes are full of autumn scenery, but she has winter in mind.

It would be nice if you just walked alone without anything. Although there is only one person, it is a little lonely, but as long as you can walk with your head held high, it feels good. When I was with Mori, I always thought about how beautiful life would be if we could walk hand in hand along the quiet boulevard after dinner every night. It's a pity that such a life used to be a fantasy, and now it is delusional.

Although that person was very close to her, he was actually very far away, an unattainable existence on the horizon.

Jia Lan looked up at the sky, and suddenly thought of Gu Cheng's "Far and Near": "You, look at me for a while, look at the clouds for a while, I think you are very close when you look at the clouds, and far away when you look at me." Gu Cheng's poem just said how she felt. Jason, the closer she is, the more she feels distant.

Winter love song, in fact, it's a bit ironic to think about it, her relationship didn't last through the winter at all, and it ended in the fall.

Under such sunshine and in such thoughts, Jia Lan suddenly remembered Zhou Chuanxiong's song "The Secret of Winter" and had an idea. The Secret of Winter sings the story of a secret love, the protagonist falls in love with his best friend's girlfriend, and the love is hard to open in his heart, so he has to make this love a secret of winter. So, what should be used to express it?

With inspiration, there is a breakthrough in thinking about the design drawing, so Jia Lan is in a good mood, looking up in the autumn sun through the leaves to cast mottled sun shadows, I feel suddenly a lot more transparent.

In fact, it was already Thursday when she thought about it, and there was very little time left for her to design. So he quickly turned around and went back. It turned out to be seen Rhett. Jia Lan was surprised to see that he was actually on this boulevard, but she still greeted him.

"Why are you here?" Jia Lan asked with a smile.

"Oh, I'll come over here for dinner and walk back along the way." Naturally, Ritter said, "Are you going back?" Let's go together. ”

"Okay." Jia Lan walked over to Ritter, and the two of them walked back side by side.

"Are you out at noon? Is this eating? Or a walk? Ritter asked.

"Come out for a walk. In the company, I feel that my head is messy, and I can't think of it, so I go out for a walk, hoping to find inspiration. Jia Lan said frankly.

"Did you find that?" Ritter had actually seen her for a long time, walking alone under the shade trees, looking up from time to time to see the sunlight leaking through the cracks in the trees. When he saw it in the back, he couldn't help but follow her for a while, looking at the slender body in front of him, he really wanted to step forward and walk side by side with her, and keep walking.

"Well, I feel a little bit of it, I'm going to go back to the company and draw it and see how it goes?" Jia Lan said happily.

"Then I'll see." Ritter watched her run out for three days in a row, and was afraid that she would not be inspired for a while, so he thought about whether to help remind her, because the topic was from him, and he already had a concept in his heart. Looking at Jialan's troubles, I really can't stand it. At this time, I heard her say that she was inspired, and I was really happy for her. And he was curious about what kind of surprise she would bring to everyone this time.

"I'll try." Garan replied. She found that when she was full of focus on work, her life was very simple. I've been thinking about this and that, thinking about it a lot, but now I feel that such a simple life is good. So the smile on his face returned to the same sincere smile as before. This made Ritter look at it, and he was very comforted.

He was afraid that she would collapse. Women usually regard love and love too highly, once they can't pursue it, they will die or live, and in his opinion, in addition to love, there are many things worth fighting for in this world. After all, love can't be forced, it's better to pursue other goals. The reason why he left Jialan behind was that he liked her talent, and secondly, he hoped that she would get up from wherever she fell.

The two of them talked and laughed and went back to the company together. Let colleagues see it, and there is another exchange of ears. But Jia Lan doesn't care anymore. She just wants to do her job well now, and she doesn't want to care about anything else, and she doesn't want to care.

That afternoon, she scribbled and changed until she got off work, and then the design draft was preliminarily finalized. In the evening, I took it home again, continued to revise and improve, and worked overtime in the study until more than eleven o'clock before the design draft was finalized. Because each person had to submit two design drafts, in addition to the main design draft of "The Secret of Winter", she also designed another sub-draft. It's taken so much time.

She slept late at night, almost couldn't get up in the morning, and if it wasn't for the old lady knocking on the door, she would have almost overslept. I got up in a daze, washed my face with cold water, and gradually came to my senses. I washed up quickly, had breakfast, and went straight to the company.

Because the design draft has to be handed in on Friday morning. She's not new now, so she doesn't have to show the design to the manager in advance. Just wait for the conference to show it.

At the meeting, the whole company arrived. With the last experience, Jialan was not so nervous this time. Look at the president and director sitting on it. Ritter saw her looking at him and gave him an encouraging look back. Jason, on the other hand, glanced at her, but didn't say anything. She lowered her head, stopped looking at them, and focused on her design, thinking about how she would explain her design later.

ranked according to seniority, and it was her turn to be the last. She looked at the designs of the predecessors in front of her, and they were all very good and very suitable for the theme. Reed grass, tree trunks that have lost their leaves, dead grass in winter. A small fish jewelry designed by Xiaoxiao is also very exquisite. Everyone's design feels good and very innovative, and she feels new when she sees it. can find new ideas in traditional themes, and sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy.

Jia Qian appeared in front of her, confidently showing off a plum blossom silk necklace. Plum blossoms are an old theme, but they have made new ideas, and the materials used are also more special, it looks very extravagant, and everyone looks at her in amazement. is really worthy of being the future president's wife, the daughter of the Su family, very talented. Naturally, everyone couldn't imagine that this was the work of Jia Qian's classmates when she was in college, but it was not as delicate as her design.

Finally, it was Jia Lan's turn to appear. Jialan has only been in the company for a few months, and has received too much attention from her colleagues. Now she is standing in front of the slide projector, and everyone is curious about what kind of work she will show. Will her talent be directly proportional to her scandals? By the time Jialan projected her design with slides, everyone was silent.

"This piece of jewelry is called Winter's Secret. The design was inspired by Zhou Chuanxiong's song of the same name. The pendant on the necklace is made of white gold on the outside, and is made of two snowflakes welded into a circle. Inside the round shape is a heart ground ruby. ......," Jia Lan said carefully. Put your heart in the snowflakes, this is the secret of all love that you can't love. Because he can't blurt out, he hides his true heart; Because I can't get a response, I seal my heart.

In fact, this secret is not her secret. Her love has always been only in the dark, and she dare not walk in the sun. Her heart can only be hidden deeply, not daring to be exposed to others. She wanted to say that she dedicated this to her departed love, but she couldn't say it after all. However, when they heard the sound of the piano, Jason and Ritter saw such a design and looked at her, and their eyes were much deeper.

Sure enough, her design touched the hearts of many people, and everyone present couldn't help but think deeply. In fact, in the depths of everyone's heart, isn't there a love in the heart of her or him? Isn't that kind of winter secret, unspeakable love, just a heart wrapped in ice and snow? So the design was chosen without question.
