Chapter 39
Ahhhh, isn't this the treasure that the chosen one should have?
The second point is that to obtain this item, you must personally participate in the crafting process and the quest. Therefore, it cannot be obtained by purchasing components and crafting it yourself.
The last two pictures are for showing off.
Many players were furious. What was the meaning of this "Qingfengyi" thing?
Are you openly going against your sugar daddy?
Lin Shuying certainly wouldn't mess with players who spend money on in-game purchases. Those who spend money on in-game purchases will have their place offline, hehe!
A win-win situation, pretty impressive, right?
"Designer, come out here! I promise I won't kill you!"
"Refund! Refund the money I spent on in-game purchases!"
"I'll recharge you one more star coin in this lifetime, but I'll never get Qingfengyi's limited-edition items!"
"Upstairs, are you sure you want to say that?"
There was a moment of silence in the chat channel after the question was asked, as if giving the player some space to make up for it.
That player was quite quick to speak up: "Just kidding, don't take it seriously. Absolutely don't take it seriously."
"Ha ha ha ha"
"Ha ha ha ha"
"Ha ha ha ha"
........
Lin Shuying finally had time to busy herself with the hairpin-wearing ceremony after the game update.
I finished part of the flower wrapping before, but there are still 30 pieces left to finish.
She's not assembling them now, only working on the flower-wrapping part; the final assembly will be done by Liang Ranran and the others. With two assistants, the process is much faster. The 36 gemstone hair combs over there will be finished in the next couple of days, and now she's busy assembling them for Lin Shuying, while also watching her work and learning from her.
The previously arranged procedures have been changed.
After finishing the wrapped flower, make the velvet flower.
Making velvet flowers is more difficult than making wrapped flowers, especially cutting the velvet and twisting the gold thread; if you're not careful, all your previous efforts will be wasted.
Creating the desired shape is quite complicated, involving ironing, applying glue, making corrections, and finally assembling.
Lin Shuying made the initial components, and three apprentices assembled them. They completed the production of 72 hair combs in five days.
We all made silk flowers together, and Lin Shuying cut the flowers.
Making silk flowers requires more skill in material selection and shaping; other aspects are easier than the other types. Making 36 is quick; just make some final adjustments to the details.
The flowers made using the four techniques are vastly different. The wrapped flower has a beautiful sheen, and its angles are heavier than the other techniques. Lin Shuying's wrapped thread has no visible traces, its luster is fluid and dynamic, and it exudes a luxurious aura under the light. Paired with pearl and gemstone accessories, it is truly captivating.
The most outstanding feature of velvet flowers is their color matching, especially for creating designs with rich color variations such as "Golden Phoenix Spreading Wings," "Rouge Dots of Snow," and "Purple Dragon Lying in Snow."
The round chrysanthemums have a charming, fluffy cuteness, and Lin Shu-ying mainly paired them with accessories such as pearls, pom-poms, and feathers. They would definitely be a perfect match for winter outfits.
The flat, velvety floral pattern adds a touch of carefree elegance, reminiscent of the gradations of ink wash painting. Lin Shuying particularly loves this style, and her affection for it is evident in the background art of every announcement letter in the game.
Silk flowers have a realistic style, are inexpensive to make, have simple shapes, and are relatively easy to create.
It seems materials aren't cheap even in interstellar space...
"Alright, over the next few days, we'll be making heat-shrink flowers, which requires a lot of skill in coloring and shaping. You'll need to learn that too, and then you'll get hands-on experience with that."
The heat shrink sheets are custom-made; some have patterns printed on them according to requirements, while others are blank and need to be drawn on by the customer.
Lin Shuying likes to draw by herself, taking a blank sheet of paper and drawing little by little.
Each component I design is unique, which makes the finished product feel more spiritual.
After drawing the components and cutting them out, start dyeing. Some hairpin makers like to dye them first and then cut them out, but Lin Shuying feels that the edges are difficult to handle and it's troublesome to touch up the color later.
Apply the color, add a touch of shimmering powder, such as adding a little white shell powder or light purple shimmer to create a gradient of purple and pink that looks very dreamy.
The most crucial step is to shape the heat-shrink flower into the desired form.
If the technique isn't good, chrysanthemums might end up looking like a bunch of oddly colored pine needles, or some other completely unrelated thing.
Using a hot air blower to heat the material, the other hand controls tools such as tweezers and a hammer to adjust the angle and shape. Many people are more prone to making mistakes when doing this, resulting in crooked and uneven components, as was the case with Lin Shuying.
On the contrary, speed and precision produce absolutely stunning results.
After assembling, add diamonds and ice jade teardrops, along with some pendants and tassels, and the exquisite chrysanthemum hair comb is complete.
Liang Ranran and the others were stunned. "Boss, you're creating an aesthetic miracle."
The entire "Rouge Snowflake" bloom arrives with a dreamlike quality, its pale purple hue gradually transitioning to pinkish-white from the center outwards, adorned with jewel-like teardrops. Three plump pearls beside it have a mirror-like sheen, subtly reflecting the flower's own color, creating a harmonious effect. Even the withered tips of the chrysanthemum leaves, tinged with blue, are adorned with a tiny red gemstone dragonfly.
Below are amethyst tassels adorned with plump pearls, and even larger pink pearls scattered like raindrops.
So beautiful!
Lin Shuying asked with a smile, "Have you learned it?"
Zhang Zhiqi: "You've wasted your time learning."
Lin Shuying smiled and took out patterned shrink plastic sheets for the three of them. "Once you've mastered the basics, start cutting them out and then coloring them. Keep everything you make until you're satisfied with it; it's proof of your progress. The cost will be deducted from your wages, okay? Good luck! I'm rooting for you."
"Ah~ Boss, could you demonstrate one more?"
Lin Shu-ying: "I'll do it on the side, you guys practice, and ask me anytime if you don't understand something."
The three of them were very serious and buried themselves in their studies.
But the results won't be available in a day.
The next day, Lin Shuying saw a printed flowchart on her work desk, which even had detailed annotations on color matching theory, color wheel, and tips.
Lin Shuying asked with a smile, "Who did the homework?"
Liang Ranran said shyly, "I made it last night. When I was coloring it yesterday, I realized I didn't have any coloring skills, so I learned some. Today, I asked everyone, but no one knew anything about coloring, so I just printed it out."
"It's pretty good, but just stick to the original color of the chrysanthemum. As for the dreamy color, you can add something hazy that won't make the petals look dirty."
"Ok."
Lin Shuying has finished making the heat-shrink flower, with five days left in the game event.
We'll focus on the auction venue arrangements first. We're confident in entrusting everything to Lin Qiaoqiao, but some details still need her adjustments. After all, only she knows the desired feel and details of her design.
Artistic processing is quite magical; sometimes, just a slight difference in details can lead to vastly different effects.
The adjustments took three days, and with two days left, Lin Shuying decided to add a set of items for sale in the game and update it on the day the game ended.
This outfit belongs to the Phoenix Soaring to the Nine Heavens series because it's a luxurious yellow-toned garment. The main color scheme is a golden phoenix spreading its wings, and the hair accessories also lean towards this theme.
This outfit was included as a permanent costume, and there are actually quite a few permanent costume sets in the game. Making this the main product of this event is a great move; it'll definitely drive players crazy for it.
Speaking of which, when the event first started, Lin Qiaoqiao showed her the suddenly soaring recharge data, and she still didn't understand why players suddenly recharged so much.
You couldn't possibly buy this many seeds, could you?
Go into the game and take a look.
Lin Shuying was stunned when she went inside. The players were really something else, actually buying clothes to make ropes!
Lin Shuying felt a pang of sadness. The beautiful clothes she had designed, once purchased by players, were theirs to use as they saw fit. But this kind of treatment was a terrible waste.
She texted in the chat: "How could you bear to tear such a beautiful dress into rope?"
Is she going to turn off this physics engine?
Or in the future, we could make more limited editions, exclusives, or bundled items, or even create unique products like the two hair crowns we made this time.
"Mind your own business! I have money, so what? Look at my colorful auspicious cloud bird!"
The picture showed countless parrots of various colors carrying a huge net. Upon closer inspection, Lin Shuying realized it was the mosquito netting from the beds in the princess and garden rooms?
It was filled with rose petals.
What are we supposed to do?
A few dozen seconds later, many players posted videos.
"A tycoon is showering us with flowers! Come take a picture, this time it's rose petals!"
"Ahhh, I made it! I made it! With my girlfriends, hehe. Video."
In the video, five players are thrown from the sky by a giant eagle and, amidst a shower of flower petals, strike various poses in mid-air. Some are flying, some are making peace signs, some are lying flat, and some are being spun around while petals dance in the air—a truly romantic scene.
In just a few seconds, they managed to create a spectacular display, then smashed the grass, scattering countless rose petals.
There was a thick layer of rose petals piled up on the ground...
After the five players landed and were eliminated, they exploded like fireworks, and the items they had collected in their backpacks fell to the ground, tracing parabolic arcs like fireworks, creating a spectacular effect as the items scattered.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the fallen petals were all petals from a gemstone chrysanthemum, and each person only had one type of chrysanthemum petal.
Goodness, even the deaths were designed in a specific way. These players really know how to play.
"Wow, the Golden Phoenix Wings are the most effective, with a golden glow. Other chrysanthemum petals just don't quite live up to the hype."
"No, 'Rouge on Snow' is wonderful. I feel like when I die, I really will turn into a 'Rouge on Snow' flower petals scattering everywhere. Ahhh, it's so beautiful!"
"The rouge-like snowflakes are absolutely gorgeous, I love pink! No arguments allowed."
"Nonsense! The black chrysanthemum is absolutely beautiful, uniquely beautiful, the most beautiful in the world!"
Lin Shu-ying said she didn't understand, what kind of operation is this?
There's also a flying service in the chat channel where you can go swinging.
Lin Shuying was very curious and asked after adding him as a friend, "How much does it cost for one service?"
She had changed her game nickname to conceal her identity as a designer, so the player thought another business opportunity had come his way.
"Two hundred hairs combed at a time, three minutes each time, guaranteed to circle Zhilan Mountain once."
Lin Shuying didn't do any tasks, so where did she get two hundred hair combs from?
"Change to something else."
The player said, "Anything else is fine, such as rare items like letters, jade pendants, clothes, or the outfits available for exchange this time."
Lin Shuying: "Do you think I'm stupid? These are all rare items, and you're going to trade them for a swing ride?"
(Many people think you're silly, my darling, sob sob)
