Chapter 1360 - Turning up for the Meeting (2) (2/2)
The two of them chatted about tea brewing and immediately got closer to each other.
Seeing that it was almost time, Jill changed the subject by saying, “Wen, I’ve been paying attention to the jewelry exhibition held by the Wen Family. Your mother’s masterpieces were perfect too, especially the finale piece, Puerile Phoenix. Oh… it’s the most flawless piece of art in this world. You modeled it very outstandingly.”
Jill did not sound in the least bit pretentious at all and he was also telling the truth because he felt that no one could come up with such a soulful and vibrant design which was also full of life.
The Spirit Of The Dragon symbolized pride.
Puerile Phoenix symbolized life.
Their beauty was outstanding, and also the reason for his visit to China.
Wen Xinya knew that they were broaching the main topic and purpose of their meeting. She said smilingly, “Thank you for your compliment, Teacher Jill.”
Still appearing excited, Jill said in a pompous tone, “I really liked the inspiration behind Puerile Phoenix. It’s perfect when combined with Puerile Phoenix’s outstanding qualities.”
Europeans had a strong enthusiasm and love for diamonds and gems. Gold did not fit their beauty standards, but Wen Xinya’s designs had given them a new impression of gold which they deemed to symbolize life.
“Since you like Puerile Phoenix, I must take you to Wen Corporation so that you can admire the set of jewelry in person,” Wen Xinya said amicably and tactfully with a sincere expression.
Jill decided to cut straight to the chase.
“Wen, I’m sure you know why I came to Capital city this time. The French Vogue International Jewelry Association has given Puerile Phoenix a high rating and they’d like to curate it for a lifelong display. What are your thoughts?”
His agenda was to acquire the rights to displaying Puerile Phoenix in the museum.
Wen Xinya smiled and said, “Teacher Jill, since you’ve read what I said about the inspiration, I’m sure you’re well aware that this set of jewelry symbolizes life, love, bliss, and hope!”
Turning someone down was an art too, especially when turning down romantic French. They were gentle and mild-mannered, but they were also prideful and uncompromising. However, they were not unreasonable and would also accept rejection once they were convinced.
Jill nodded in agreement to what she said, though he did not expect that to be the outcome.
Wen Xinya continued, “Life, love, bliss, and hope are the best things in life and they’re also the intangibles that humans pursuit endlessly. How could you bear to store them in a cold and enclosed museum, then? How could you bear to keep them away from human touch?”
The French valued life, love, bliss, and hope much more than anyone else did and they naturally had a different definition of them. Hence, Wen Xinya was certain that she would be able to convince Jill.
