Chapter 296 An Impassioned Speech
Chapter 296 An Impassioned Speech
The biggest tragedy of H Country was that there were many fake products and knockoffs.
No matter it was products from various fields or virtual goods, as long as the equivalent exchange of
money was involved, there would definitely be someone who changed the equivalent value and even
stole other people's works.
For example, Kim and several seniors who had retired gradually were exhausted because of such a
thing.
Hearing that Kim was going to make this work a unique one, the students of Song Studio stared at the
big screen on the stage seriously.
Soon, a work's name appeared on the screen: "Coiled Dragon in the Sea".
Then, the images of the work were gradually played.
And in an instant, the audience at the scene were amazed one after another.
"It's such a work."
"Mr. Kim is indeed a master. Those words, 'Coiled Dragon in the Sea', are enough to describe his work.
I didn't expect to find that his ability is unparalleled in H Country after looking at his work."
"It's a brilliant work. That's how Kim's work makes me feel. I'm glad that such a talent can live in H
Country. Now the environment in the circle is no longer filthy. I hope that Kim can continue to make
such jewelry to us."
"Look at the expression of the coiled dragon. Look at the direction of the sea water. It seems that the
dragon wants to turn the tide, and it is also willing to go into the abyss."
"What are you talking about? From my point of view, this work is the best proof of Kim's heart at this
moment. Only when he gets out of trouble can he succeed."
"Okay, okay, you are right. Anyway, I have my own opinions. This is the charm of art, which can cause
people to think deeply in their hearts. In my opinion, Kim's work tonight should be the highest bid."
After a series of discussions, the hostess on the stage finally stopped at the auction block. After her
speech calmed everyone down, she continued to keep everyone in suspense. "You're really lucky
tonight. There will be a mysterious guest coming, and you'll also have an opportunity to bid for the
unique work of Mr. Kim."
As soon as she finished speaking, the audience at the scene were as surprised as the students of
Song Studio. After the shock, the hostess continued, "You didn't hear it wrong. There is indeed only
such a work in the world, 'Coiled Dragon in the Sea', which is made by Mr. Kim. So if you want to get it,
you have to wait patiently for the following auction."
After the hostess confirmed that what she said was true, there was a burst of discussion again. There
were probably many people repeating the previous conversation between Vana and Aimee Lan, so the
scene was somewhat out of control.
Five or six minutes passed, and the hostess still didn't calm down the audience. At this time, Kim, who
was invited from the west of the stage by the organizers, walked steadily onto the stage. The moment
the crowd saw him, they gradually stopped talking.
Kim was dressed in a simple grey suit with a pair of glasses. His hair turned much whiter after the last
time Vana saw him. It seemed that he had put too much energy on this work.
Kim took the microphone, "Thank you for your attention to me and for your support for me for so long.
Thank you!"
After saying that, Kim stood at the side of the auction block and bowed deeply to everyone. There was
a smattering of applause, and then, there was a burst of long-lasting applause around.
Everyone applauded for Kim's talent, and also for Kim who took the bull by the horns and moved
forward in this era. Kim's life was worthy of everyone's applause, and the works that Kim had
contributed to everyone was even more worthy of everyone's applause.
The applause became more and more intense. Some people even cheered up, and some put their Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
palms around their mouths, asking Kim to keep going.
These words were so warm that even Vana's eyes turned red unconsciously.
The applause gradually came to an end, and Kim finally straightened up from his bowing.
Unconsciously, everyone saw that the old man, who was nearly fifty years old, had red eyes and hot
tears.
"Keep up the good work, Mr. Kim!"
"Mr. Kim, don't cry. You are already great."
"We support you, Mr. Kim. We will always protect your work!"
Kim, who was about to pick up the microphone, choked with sobs again.
Men who could cry in front of others usually had unspeakable experiences. Kim was such a man, and
he looked very charming in personality, making people see that he was a real man.
After calming down for a while, Kim raised the microphone again. His words were a little choked, but it
did not affect everyone's desire to listen to him.
"I... I'm really grateful. Thank you for your approval. Now let me talk about the fact that I only make
unique jewelry."
The audience quietly listened to Kim's words.
"Different from modern art works, all of works that have the patterns of H country are unique without
molds and copying tools. The reason why I didn't make unique jewelry before is to survive."
After saying that, he laughed, which amused the audience immediately. Some of them even joked in a
high-profile way, "Then don't you need to live now?"
Kim heard the man's words. He pointed at the man, "You ask me if I need to make jewelry for survival
now? The answer is yes. As an old artist, the more you collect, the lonelier you feel. I have done so
many collections, and every one of them is the result of my painstaking efforts. I hope many people can
see my works, and I hope my works can become the pride of H Country."
Kim paused deliberately, and then continued, "But... It doesn't completely make me feel my value. Just
like what this man said before, I created my works for survival, which means that I want everyone to
give back to me. But my true love of jewelry doesn't need to be reciprocated, so I haven't achieved real
happiness and value before. But today, I have an epiphany. I only work on one piece. I can proudly tell
my foreign friends that I only have one piece of work, and there are no fake products or knockoffs. If
you want my work, you can pay me."
Kim's humorous words made the audience laugh.
Kim continued, "And the reason why I did so is to make the jewelry industry of H Country better. I don't
want a second Brandon in H Country. And I don't want the jewelry of H Country to spread all over the
world, but I don't know which one is true. I want the fake products and knockoffs to disappear from the
jewelry industry from now on."
"Wow, Mr. Kim, are you cracking down on fake products? Ahem, ahem, but it's a little late for that..."
Kim continued his impassioned speech on the stage, "So today, I declare that I will only make unique
products for the rest of my life. And today, all the money for the auction of 'Coiled Dragon in the Sea'
will be sent back to people who once supported me, hoping to motivate them and guide them. Thank
you, everyone. See you again!"
After saying that, Kim bowed and stepped down.
The applause under the stage lasted for a long time, and the glory on the stage was more valuable.
