Around six o'clock in the evening, the rest of the Ning family returned.
After dinner, everyone sat neatly in the living room watching TV.
Some were drinking tea, some were chatting, waiting for the 7:30 TV broadcast.
At 7:30, the TV news ended and the screen changed to show the entrance of the convention center where the awards ceremony was held in Paris.
First there were the red carpet scenes, and later only a few internationally famous stars and some wealthy people were edited in.
Among the group of European and American faces, an oriental face stands out particularly.
Yan Ning, wearing a starry blue dress, appeared elegant and generous in the camera, and her whole temperament completely dominated the red carpet.
The expression on her face and the aura she exudes when facing the camera are no less impressive than those of big-name stars.
The Ning family members had the same expression at this moment, with a proud smile on their faces.
Although Yan Ning grew up in a poor area in the inland, he was not raised or pampered by his family.
But she is worthy of being a member of the Ning family. She has the blood of the Ning family flowing in her body and the genes of the Ning family from generation to generation in her bones.
Now she is no different from those ladies carefully cultivated by aristocratic families.
Then the picture played to the work designed by Yan Ning on the big screen, and the Nine-Colored Deer brooch looked sparkling.
The Ning family praised again.
The next step is for the judges to give their scores, even though they already know that Yan Ning has won first prize.
But when they saw each judge raise their scoreboards one by one, the Ning family members became nervous.
After that came the award ceremony. When the host read out the name of the first prize winner Yan Ning, the camera turned to Yan Ning in the audience.
Yan Ning confidently stood up and walked onto the podium, receiving the trophy and flowers from Master Bernard. He smiled at the camera in the audience.
The award ceremony ended and the broadcast ended.
The Ning family members were still not satisfied and started chatting about Yan Ning's award.
…
The next morning at around ten o'clock, Yan Ning was drawing a design in his room.
There is no rush for Lucia's wedding ring and Miss Helen's crown, there is plenty of time anyway.
She planned to design a piece of jewelry for each member of the Ning family, and design a pair of cufflinks with different patterns and styles for each man in the Ning family.
For female members, different jewelry will be designed according to each person's temperament and image.
The Ning family has done so much for her. No matter who it is for, she is the one who benefits in the end.
Her heart is not made of stone. Although she is not so moved as to pour out her heart, she can still do what she can for the Ning family.
A relationship where there is give and take and mutual investment can last longer.
"Knock knock knock... Miss Third, the second lady of the Guan family is calling you." The servant's voice came from outside the door.
Yan Ning responded, "Okay, I understand. I'll go down right away."
She put down her pen, left the room and quickly went downstairs.
Coming to the living room phone, Yan Ning picked up the receiver and said, "Hello, Sister Jiaojiao, are you looking for me?"
"Ahhh..." Guan Jiaojiao's excited voice came from the microphone.
After a few seconds, Guan Jiaojiao calmed down and spoke excitedly:
"Xiao Ning, I saw you on TV. Last night the TV station broadcast the Paris Jewelry Competition Awards Ceremony.
You won the first prize in the design competition. You are awesome! The jewelry you designed is really beautiful.
We watched TV together as a family. My grandma and mom kept praising you and told me to learn more from you.
If my mom hadn't stopped me, I would have been so excited that I wanted to call you last night."
Yan Ning laughed, "Sister Jiaojiao, your clothing design skills are also very good, you have to believe in yourself."
Guan Jiaojiao laughed twice, "I saw you receiving the award on TV last night. The confidence you exuded was simply radiant.
I feel like I still have a lot to learn from you, Xiaoning, when are you free? Let's have afternoon tea together."
Yan Ning thought for a moment and said, "How about tomorrow afternoon?"
Guan Jiaojiao said happily, "Okay, then let's meet at Yue Kee Restaurant in Central at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
After agreeing on the time and place, Yan Ning hung up the phone.
It was still early, so she went back to her room to draw the design.
After finishing his meal at around noon, Yan Ning returned to his room, changed his clothes, and dressed up a little.
At one o'clock, the largest newspaper in Hong Kong sent two reporters to the Ning family.
The interview took place in the Ning family's living room.
Yan Ning sat on the sofa, a decent smile on his face, holding the trophy in his hand.
One of the reporters took a camera and took a few photos of Yan Ning.
Another reporter asked some questions and wrote down Yan Ning's answers.
Reporter: "Ms. Yan Ning, can you tell us about the work you designed?"
Yan Ning smiled and said, "The work I designed is a nine-colored deer brooch.
The design inspiration comes from a mythical beast in ancient Chinese legends, the name of which is Caiyunlu.
It symbolizes the qualities of gentleness, kindness, honesty, trustworthiness, bravery and justice.
There are nine colors on it, and each color represents different meanings and symbols.
At that time, I felt that both the appearance and the meaning of the colorful cloud deer were particularly suitable for designing brooches.
So I designed a nine-colored deer brooch based on that legend."
Reporter: "I heard that Miss Yan Ning is from the mainland and has only been in Hong Kong for a month.
So, have you been learning jewelry design since you were young in the mainland?
Yan Ning smiled faintly, "There are no such conditions in the mainland for me to learn jewelry design since childhood.
The ability I have now is nothing but talent."
How can having the 21st Century cheat not be considered a talent!
The reporter paused, as if he had never seen such a boastful person.
Then he asked: "So what do you think about your work winning first prize in this competition?"
Yan Ning smiled and said, "I have always treated this competition with a normal attitude. It was totally unexpected that my work won the first prize.
Therefore, I am very grateful to every judge in the competition for their love and affirmation of my design work."
Reporter: "Will you set up your own jewelry brand next? If someone invites you to design jewelry, would you agree?"
Yan Ning smiled and said, "I have this plan and it is currently being prepared. As for the fact that someone wants me to design jewelry,
It depends on fate. If there is creative inspiration, then I will agree to design jewelry for the other party.
If I don’t have inspiration, I won’t just design a piece of jewelry to please others.”
The interview lasted about an hour and finally ended at 2:30.
The reporter who interviewed Yan Ning asked for a photo of the brooch.
After the two reporters left, Madam Ning and Sister Huo came down from upstairs.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Yan Ning returned to his room to rest.
