When he reached the door where Lu Heting could no longer see him, he bowed deeply and turned to leave.
Qiao Weiyang went to see Lu Wenhui and Zhou Zefan.
âIâm relieved to see you in such a good state.â Lu Wenhui gave her a tight hug. âHave a seat and have some tea.â
Zhou Zefan poured some tea and placed it in front of Qiao Weiyang.
âThe matter has come to an end. I didnât expect such a thing to happen before.â Qiao Weiyang smiled and said, âIâm sorry for making you worry.â
âWeâre the ones who should apologize. We didnât help much.â Lu Wenhui felt a little guilty when she thought about it.
âAunt Wenhui, donât say that. I know that at that time, Hua Wen Jewelry had already used all the funds they could to help Zhuoqian. Zhuoqian and I will remember your kindness.â
Lu Wenhui waved her hand in embarrassment. âDonât say that. That bit of money didnât help much. In the end, our share price rose and we even made a huge profit for no reason. Iâm more embarrassed than anything.â
âThis is the blessing of kindness,â Qiao Weiyang said with a smile.
âBy the way, Zefan, bring it over.â
Zhou Zefan pushed a huge box over.
Qiao Weiyang recognized the box. âIs this the red diamond?â
âYes. In the past, I thought that this was something Zefanâs father had always kept. We donât lack this, so we just kept it. Now, I understand. Diamonds have to be used to be valuable. Whatâs the point of keeping them in a place where they canât be seen at all?â
Zhou Zefan also said, âI believe that if my father was still alive, he would definitely be more willing to see this red diamond cut.â
Seeing that they had made up their minds, Qiao Weiyang nodded and said, âAlright, in that case, letâs cut it.â
Lu Wenhui nodded. âIt wasnât easy to get this red diamond back then. If we want to cut it now, we have to hold a grand news conference. After gathering the reporters, weâll cut it.â
Qiao Weiyang examined the red diamond seriously and reached out to touch it. The cold touch was very comfortable.
âAunt Wenhui, can you help me keep a small piece to make a necklace?â
âHow big of a piece do you want? Just tell Zefan.â
âIt doesnât need to be big. Itâs fine as long as itâs exquisite. It doesnât matter how big it is.â
Zhou Zefan nodded. âOkay, Iâll leave a piece for you.â
âCan I choose it myself?â Qiao Weiyang made a request.
Zhou Zefan smiled. âMiss, you can take the entire thing if you want.â
âI donât want the whole thing. Just let me choose.â
Lu Wenhui smiled and teased, âYouâll definitely choose the best, but you deserve the best. Zefan, go make the arrangements.â
Zhou Zefan quickly went to arrange the publicity matters.
When they heard that Lu Wenhui had a real red diamond, the reporters were very interested.
The preparations were also very fast. After Lu Wenhui finished speaking about it, she booked a venue the next day and arranged a grand news conference for the cutting ceremony.
The reporters also arrived as promised.
Previously, Zheng Mengwei had been promoting the red diamond in her hands, leaving an impression on the reporters and many noblewomen in Jingdu City. This time, this event naturally attracted many people to Hua Wen Jewelry. They intended to see if the red diamond was real.
Everyone was discussing.
These noblewomen did not want to miss the opportunity to get real diamonds.
Facing the many guests, the brocade box containing the red diamond was pushed out and placed in front of everyone.
Lu Wenhui also stood in front of everyone.
The reporters couldnât wait anymore and threw out questions.
These questions focused on the authenticity of the red diamond and how it was purchased.
Lu Wenhui was mature and elegant, but she was capable. She picked up the microphone and said, âMany people must have doubts. There are so many red diamonds in the market. How can we be sure that our piece is real? Then Iâll tell everyone the story of how we bought the red diamond back then⦠Therefore, Zhou Ping had worked hard to buy this diamond.
âAlthough Zhou Ping has passed away, his son, Zhou Zefan, is still inheriting his will. He bought this red diamond back then, and itâs a waste to put it in a safe. Only by using it for everyone can we see its value.â
She explained what had happened back then in detail and took out the appraisal certificate.
Everyone saw that this certificate was indeed issued by a professional organization.
Moreover, the older generation had indeed heard of these stories.
âThe news of Zhou Ping buying a red diamond spread like wildfire back then. I didnât expect everyone to not know about it after so many years have passed.â
âItâs a good thing to use it now to correct the situation. Just as CEO Lu said, things are only valuable when theyâre used.â
âThatâs great! Weâre going to witness history today. Weâll see this red diamond cut with our own eyes!â
Lu Wenhui smiled and said, âNow, letâs witness the cutting of our red diamond!â
After saying this, an expert picked up a professional tool on the spot and cut the red diamond.
The cutting process was actually very long and boring.
However, everyone present waited patiently and watched. To have a chance to witness such a high-value red diamond being cut was also an opportunity that everyone could not ask for more.
Everyone stared at the cutting table and watched as the diamond was slowly divided into smaller diamonds of various sizes.
The real diamond shone brightly. There were many people at the event location who were part of the industry. They all looked at the red diamond in front of them in surprise.
âItâs real! With this appearance and texture, itâs definitely a real red diamond!â
âIndeed. Itâs been a long time since Iâve seen a red diamond with such brightness and precision. Especially a diamond of this size. Itâs really too rare.â
âIâve seen many diamonds, but this is the first time Iâve seen such a beautiful one!â
âNot bad, not bad. I wonder if Hua Wen Jewelryâs batch of diamonds will be custom-made for sale. When can they be reserved?â
Zhou Zefan seized the opportunity to introduce the jewelry to everyone. âAfter the red diamond is produced, weâll custom-made it into various pieces of jewelry. Youâll soon know what theyâll look like. When the time comes, weâll also send the product brochure to you as soon as possible. Weâll accept individual custom-made jewelry and also accept the purchase of the finished products.â
The noblewomen were very satisfied and added Zhou Zefan on WeChat. âPresident Zhou, you have to prioritize my reservation when the time comes.â
âThatâs right. We often shop at Hua Wen Jewelry. The quality of this batch of diamonds is so good. You must leave me a share!â
âDefinitely.â Zhou Zefan nodded and took out the various products of the company. He personally distributed them to everyone. âEveryone, you can take a look at our other works and designs first.â
The red diamond motivated everyoneâs enthusiasm to purchase items. Although they could not book the red diamond jewelry for the time being, many noblewomen and socialites flipped through the product brochures of Hua Wen Jewelry and found many good new designs.
