C722 Brother Try It on
Ni Chenjun looked down at the small black box that was pushed in front of him. The box was tied with a black ribbon. The ribbon was tied into a beautiful bow knot on the top of the box. It seemed like it was not made by Ni Chenxi.
Ni Chenjun held the box and smiled. "Can I open it now?"
Ni Chenxi also looked at the box and nodded. "Of course."
Ni Chenjun took the ribbon apart and opened the box. Inside was a pair of black rectangular buttons. The design of the sleeves was very unique. The sides of the sleeves were full of low-profile obsidian. The sides of the obsidian were surrounded by hollow and protruding patterns. The design of the patterns was bold and bold. It was not like the armband sold on the market. It revealed a strong personal characteristic from both inside and outside. However, if one looked closely, one could vaguely make out a rough pattern.
Ni Chenjun asked, "This is Princeton's school badge?"
Ni Chenxi finally smiled and nodded. "It was designed by a senior. Her work received an award in an international competition. I begged for a long time before I bought this pair of sleeves."
It was a very outstanding senior called Jane Aurelistine. She had a double degree in mathematics and costume design at university, and she had just graduated from her PhD this year. In fact, most people would try their best to study a major that was related to the first major, and it was easy to learn. It was also another aspect that the two majors complemented each other. However, this senior also majored in two seemingly non-existent mathematics and design at the same time. Design majors were very rare in costume design.
When he first heard about this senior's experience, he was amazed for a long time. Because this senior sister's achievements were simply too admirable. Her double degree didn't lose its balance just because of the difference between the first and second majors. Not only did she have great achievements in the mathematics field, but she also had a lot of knowledge in the design field.
She had published mathematics theses and won several national awards in NATUE and other famous academic publications. She was also a little famous internationally; her costume design was less glorious than mathematics, but it couldn't be denied that... She was also quite talented in jewelry design.
Her design was very distinctive. The combination of colors and elements was very bold, and her design style was also very simple. All her works were simple and direct.
Ni Chenxi also saw her column in a magazine that sold very well in America. He still remembered. There was a sentence in the magazine: Her works had been cast with magic. It was unforgettable. Her works were all branded with her name. She was a brand.
He didn't know who said that, but it was undoubtedly very accurate.
With her works appearing in various countries and international competitions, coupled with her double degree PhD and various mathematical achievements, her value also rose. Countless research and design companies sent invitations to her. When there was a shortage of goods, the simple vegetable rings she designed could be sold for close to ten thousand USD.
But he only spent two thousand US dollars on this pair of buttons.
It was truly a very coincidental opportunity. Before this, he didn't even know what that legendary senior looked like.
That was his second month in America. His life habits and learning progress were the same as all Princeton students in the past month. He was finally able to speak professional terms without being mocked by his classmates and teachers. His English was very shoddy, like God's help. It was the first time he was able to explain his thoughts on the podium without being interrupted by the professors.
At that time, the famous senior was wearing a T-shirt and glasses as she listened to the lecture in the back row. As she listened, she lowered her head and took notes. Even the professor did not notice that there was another person in the classroom.
She silently listened to the two lessons in the classroom. After class, she found him and told him that his theory was very new and whether he was willing to join her personal leader's laboratory.
At that time, Ni Chenxi did not know her and did not want to join the laboratory early to set the direction for development, so he rejected her without hesitation.
She was not angry. Instead, she held her black notebook and quietly stood in front of him, looking at him. Her blue eyes were full of smiles, and her entire person had a gentle and scholarly feeling of comfort.
The first invitation ended without a hitch, and the second invitation came again when he participated in the school's speech competition. This time, he finally knew who she was, but he still didn't join. Instead, he asked her to make a pair of buttons for him.
At that time, the senior sister had smiled and scolded him for taking a mile after taking a mile. He hadn't even entered the laboratory, yet he was already thinking of digging out designs from her. It was simply too much.
If it were him in the past, he would definitely be so angry that he would jump ten feet high before directly rebuking her. But at that time, the tempering he experienced seemed to be able to allow him to hear these words from his left ear and from his right ear, and he could still thicken his skin and plead with others.
As expected, people changed. Now, he had become someone he had never dared to imagine in the past.
Ni Chenxi looked at the cuff and asked softly, "Brother, do you want to put it on and try it on?"
