"That's not a commodity, it's a relic." The disdainful evaluation of the international buyer was like ice water poured on the heart of Shen Zhiyu, the fourth generation successor of "Kungang Yufang". When she returned to her old house in Suzhou, pressure came from all directions: her mother's anxious chatter, her father's silent worry, and the most acute conflict came from the chief craftsman Zhao Minglei, who was like her teacher and father - he firmly believed that any "innovation" would tarnish the jade soul.
Shen Zhiyu must reconcile two deep loves: awe of her family's craft and her determination to keep it alive in a new era. She formed an experimental team, introduced fashion vision, and used a piece of seed material on which she placed all her hopes, trying to prove that ancient beauty can transcend time. When doubts, misunderstandings and financial pressure come together, the only thing she can rely on is the undying warmth of her family in daily life, and the watchfulness rooted in her blood that is tougher than jade.
Purpose: The ancient industry must be reborn and kept alive
