Craftsman: I continue to learn for the sake of the saints

Chapter 145 The Artifact of Confession: Dragon Phoenix Zigang Card
After looking at the "Tibetan Jade" in Yang Jianjun's house, Qin Luo also felt that his eyes were opened a lot.

There are some things that I know, but I have never seen with my own eyes.

If you want to collect it yourself, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Now, it's a one-off, it's like visiting a museum, it's cool to see...

Qin Luo's mood is also quite happy.

And draw something from it.

Compared with ancient times, modern jade carving techniques have actually improved in terms of ingenuity.

After all, with the explosion of information, the knowledge and vision of jade carvers have been greatly expanded, and there are more inspirations and elements that can be used.

However, in some places where "Seiko" is required, it is not as good.

This is nothing more than the result of market-oriented natural selection.

The two qualities of intelligence and tenacity are sometimes mutually exclusive.

There are more choices, more ideas, and the heart will naturally float.

……

Had dinner at his house at noon.

In the afternoon, Qin Luo entered the rhythm of carving.

The Hehe jade wares operated by Yang Jianjun mainly sell finished products. There are many cooperative jade carvers who often take this kind of cooperation route.

They pay the materials and labor costs, and the jade carvers make the finished products, and then take them out, or sell them, or auction them off.

It is equivalent to a one-time buyout.

Among the many jade carvers who cooperated with Hehe Jadeware, Qin Luo's labor cost is considered to be the only one.

Same price as jade.

Such a price is really sky-high.

However, Yang Jianjun is a shrewd businessman. He has realized that Qin Luo's current reputation is not worthy of his strength, and there must be a lot of room for appreciation in the future. Even this price can become a hype gimmick, so he agreed without hesitation. .

That's the way business is, it's all about perspective.

Not only look at products, but also look at people.

For such a cooperation, Qin Luo naturally couldn't wish for it. Now that he is "heavy in debt", it is a time when he is short of money, and he can still carve jade, so why not do it?
So it hit it off.

……

The first item selected was a pair of dragon and phoenix jade plaques.

Jade plaque is the most common type of utensil.

Among the Zigang jades, the Zigang jade plaque also has the largest number of carvings.

Belongs to basic skills.

However, the more basic things are, the more the level will be tested.

Zigang cards became popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are holes on the top for threading. Most of them are rectangular, and the length and width are made according to the golden ratio.

The outstanding features of jade face are: moderate size, round and round, exquisite knife workmanship, firm font and smooth base.

When carving, it is generally carved on both sides.

On the one hand, he painted landscapes, figures, flowers and birds.

On the other side, there are poems, calligraphy, and seals, which perfectly integrate the humanistic atmosphere and white jade.

There are not many jade plaques carved by Lu Zigang himself.

However, as the master of this type of appliance, according to modern business theory, Lu Zigang has created a new category.

So, named after him.

Later jade carvers, as long as they carve jade plaques according to this "format", they can be called Zigang plaques.

The two pieces of material that Qin Luo is carving now are mountain materials.

However, it is warm and clear, white and flawless, and it is also a rare boutique.

It was taken from that 95% field material.

Most of the seed materials are in the shape of pebbles after being washed by running water. It is really too wasteful and a lot of waste to be used to carve square jade plaques, so mountain materials are more suitable.

After obtaining Qin Luo's consent, Yang Jianjun called over a dozen of the company's current jade carvers to observe them in detail.

Now Qin Luo is carving.

Sister Cha is broadcasting live.

Outside the camera, Yang Jianjun chatted quietly with the jade carvers of his company.

The chief jade carver of Hehe Jade Ware is named Yuan Feng.

He was born in a serious class. More than [-] years ago, he was born in a middle school cooperated with the Shanghai Jade Carving Factory. He studied painting and sculpture. After finishing his studies, he stayed in the Jade Carving Factory and became a jade carver. , and Chinese painting.

Practicing is a child's work.

And immersed most of his life.

Now that he has just turned 50, he has finally reached the pinnacle of his life, and he can be regarded as a master-level figure.

In this field, it can be regarded as a good year.

Just, slightly bald.

"The technique is okay."

At this time, looking at Qin Luo's sculpture, he made a slightly arrogant evaluation, and his eyes were also somewhat satisfied.

At this age, it is indeed not bad to have such a level.

Yang Jianjun glanced at him, pursed his lips slightly, and wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it.

Yuan Feng was still arrogant.

However, it is still within an acceptable range.

Besides, without this arrogance, there is no way to achieve the current achievements in the professional field.

"Master Qin's labor costs are the same as jade."

Yang Jianjun thought for a while, and said as if nothing had happened.

Ok?
Hearing this, Yuan Feng's expression moved slightly, he licked his lips, and couldn't help but smile.

"Is this... an exaggeration?"

He and Yang Jianjun are old friends, and they also have some shares in the company, so they speak more casually.

However, I feel a little unconvinced about Shao.

The status of a jade carver cannot be accurately quantified, but the labor cost is definitely an important reference standard.

Yang Jianjun also laughed: "Whether it's worth it or not, you'll know if you see it?"

"You haven't seen that Fenpi Hetian work, really, it's amazing, I'll show you the pictures and videos."

Taking out his mobile phone, Yang Jianjun showed Yuan Feng the pictures taken yesterday, as well as the videos of several important nodes.

Yuan Feng looked at it, and was a little dumbfounded for a while.

Wait for him to read.

Yang Jianjun smiled and asked, "How is it?"

Yuan Feng touched his shiny forehead: "Indeed, it's okay."

It's still the same three words, but the eyes and tone are much more dignified.

"Is he good at carving large materials?"

Yuan Feng asked another question.

Yang Jianjun pursed his lips and smiled: "Let's take a look, the small piece is not clear."

Among jade carvings, aniseed works are of course higher in absolute value, and their artistic expression is also more shocking.

However, the price is too high.

From a commercial point of view, the general order of utensils is, one bracelet, two licenses, three handles, and four pendants.

This is the priority of the shipping category.

Bracelets have the most intended customers, sell the fastest, and then decrease in order.

"OK, let's see."

So the eyes of the two became more focused.

……

The Kunwu knife in Qin Luo's hand was swinging neither fast nor slow at this time, mainly because it involved the writing part.

These two jade plaques are still in the form of Zigang plaques, but at the corners, Qin Luo has polished them into a shape similar to a "heart", but the curvature is not so large, the belly is slightly bulging, and the edges are thin.

But now, what Qin Luo wrote was two very long paragraphs.

The dragon card reads: Marriage of two surnames, a good relationship will last forever.Look at the peach blossoms burning this day, it's IKEA.I would like to write to Hongjian with the promise of a white head.

The phoenix card reads: One contract, matching the same name.It is predicted that the melons in the year will be continuous, and Erchang Erchi.It is good to make the alliance of red leaves and record the mandarin ducks.

Four lines were carved vertically against the neat oath. The fonts are fresh and elegant, with a feeling of flying flowers, showing a sense of joy and relaxation.

This word is still very beautiful.

In particular, when carved on jade, it has a fresh and timeless feeling.

On the surrounding area, Qin Luo also used extremely refined knife skills to carve some milk nail patterns and Lihu patterns as embellishments.

The corners of Sister Cha's mouth couldn't help but purse slightly.

What a nice view.

Very pretty.

This, let alone selling it, I want it all.

Confession artifact ah.

Uh.

Although, it is a bit expensive.

This pair of jade tokens, no matter what... also cost millions.

Which girl is not confused when she sees this kind of thing?
