Chapter 1323: Wen Xinya’s Shocking Move!
Wen Xinya sneered and turned around, her black velvet gown glowing beneath the light and blinding everyone else. However, everyone could not help but turn to look at her despite stealing the limelight.
The train of Wen Xinya’s dress formed a beautiful curvature beneath the light as it appeared light and lithe.
The sounds of Wen Xinya’s stilettos knocking against the ground sounded in the living room.
The sounds were clear, refined and rhythmic. It sounded like music to everyone’s ears, despite the miscellaneous noises in the background. It felt as if she was stepping on their hearts.
Everyone could see the way her expensive stilettos glistened.
Next, Wen Xinya stepped onto the runway and said with an icy cold gaze in her eyes, “I hereby announce that the five pieces of my mother’s jewelry designs that were showcased today will not be up for sale.”
At this moment, Wen Xinya looked extremely alluring and captivating, so much that even Mo Yunyao’s designs could not steal her s.h.i.+ne.
Wen Xinya’s words were like a bomb that made everyone feel flabbergasted.
When Mo Yunyao’s masterpieces were showcased on the runway just now, everyone was still discussing about which piece suited them the most, for they were planning to buy them once they went on sale. Yet… Wen Xinya announced that they would not be ma.s.s-produced and go up for sale.
What did that mean?
The shareholders were extremely displeased with Wen Xinya’s actions. After all, they had all noticed how agitated everyone was after seeing Mo Yunyao’s designs. Although Mo Yunyao had already pa.s.sed on, she still remained a legend in the world of jewelry design. They could already imagine the ma.s.sive profits that those designs would bring to the Wen Corporation.
However, Wen Xinya announced to everyone that the jewelry pieces would not be up for sale.
Who gave her the right to act so presumptuously?
Turning as pale as a sheet because of his anger, Wen Haowen barked. “Wen Xinya, what are you talking about? You may be the heiress of the Wen Family and the successor of the Wen Corporation, but you’re still in no place to make decisions on the corporation’s behalf. If you continue to act so willfully, don’t blame me for removing your rights to becoming the successor.”
Wen Haowen was completely angered by Wen Xinya. He did not expect her to act so outrageously.
At this moment, Old Mr. Wen interjected coldly, “Xinya may not have the right to make decisions for the Wen Corporation, but I do! You have to seek my permission before you can remove Xinya’s rights to becoming the successor.”
Although Old Mr. Wen was just as astonished as everyone else, he chose to trust his granddaughter.
He believed that she wouldn’t neglect the interests of the Wen Corporation.
Meanwhile, the reporters also sobered up and realized that there were plenty of newsworthy topics.
Wen Xinya ignored the commotion and instead stared at Wen Haowen coldly. She continued, “Maybe my mother’s five designs don’t mean much to everyone, but it represents more than just Mo Yunyao’s talent and glory. It means a lot to me.”
Wen Xinya began sobbing as her teardrops rolled down her cheeks. Her eyes seemed to sparkle beneath the light like s.h.i.+mmering diamonds.
Everyone took sympathy on her after seeing that she had teared up.
Ning Shuqian gritted her teeth angrily, not expecting that Wen Xinya would play the sympathy card.
Wen Xinya smiled calmly and said pitifully, “So, I don’t wish to let my mother’s designs land in the hands of those who won’t treasure them. I don’t want anyone to stain and trample all over my mother’s efforts.”
Everyone subtly glanced at Ning Shuqian. After everything that happened, they could understand and empathize with Wen Xinya. However, they also felt disappointed about the fact that they would never get to own one of the pieces designed by Mo Yunyao.
Ning Shuqian wished she could dash forward and beat Wen Xinya into a pulp.
Wen Xinya said, “However, I know that everyone here truly fancies my mother’s masterpieces and I can’t disappoint you guys either. Hence, I’ve decided to produce my mother’s designs in limited amounts. Only 100 to 500 sets will be produced for each design. It will be sold as an heirloom, and by invitation only.”
Wen Xinya’s words shocked everyone, including Old Mr. Wen.
When one makes a piece of jewelry their heirloom, it meant that they approved of it.
There were plenty of superior jewelry companies in the world, but there were only a few which had the bravery to produce jewelry pieces meant for heirlooms. An example would be the renowned Patek Phillipe, which had a simple and concise slogan: “No one can own a Patek Phillipe. They can only safeguard it for the next generation.” It was a favorite amongst many avid watch collectors and was a century-old brand.
How did Wen Xinya have the guts to bring such a sales strategy up?
However, Wen Xinya was indeed very confident.
She was banking on Mo Yunyao’s reputation and the fact that those were the last pieces designed by her before her death.
She was the champion of the Parisian Vogue International Jewelry Design Compet.i.tion who had created a legend in the world of jewelry design, but had unfortunately pa.s.sed on at a young age!
The glory of a deceased designer was worth collecting.
Besides, the four sets of jewelry showcased today were indeed very fascinating and remained captivating even after the pa.s.sing of time.
However, everyone realized that the last set had yet to be showcased.
They immediately thought of the finale.
Everyone was beyond excited.
Wen Xinya was unaffected by how astonished everyone was. She continued, “The Wen Corporation will be selecting some customers out of the list of customers who have purchased the jewelry designed by my mother back then to send the invite to.”
