Pick up treasure

"Mayor Huntley, Director Brewer, why are you two here?"

Dawei followed Mr. Alberni to meet the mayor and the curator of the Louvre, so when he saw Brewer leading Huntley to the studio, he recognized him at a glance.

David greeted him with a smile, but Lusa signaled to the teacher.Albeni, who was so focused, didn't see the two of them at first, but only found the mayor and curator on Lusa's soft call, and walked towards them slowly.

"I'm absolutely amazed that the mayor and curator are here in my little studio."

What Albeni said was that the mayor and the curator of the Louvre would never come to his place before, but the purpose of their visit is obvious now, and it is nothing but because of the incident with the Statue of Victory two days ago.

Huntley and Brewer didn't beat around the bush, and said bluntly, "Albeni, I came today with the mayor to see how your statue of Victory is finished? You don't know, originally your statue It can be completed tomorrow. We will put it in the Louvre Museum for tourists to visit the day after tomorrow, but the mayor will go abroad for inspection the day after tomorrow. If it cannot be completed today, it will not be put in the Louvre tomorrow, and the mayor will not see victory the day after tomorrow. The goddess statue is worshiped by thousands of people, so let's urge the workers to see if we can drive it out today?"

Brewer's tone was full of sarcasm, and of course Albeni could hear the meaning behind his words, and he didn't want to talk to him.

Albeni didn't speak, Breuer had eyes, and he could aim. At this time, a sculpture not far away had a panoramic view. Breuer saw that it was the Statue of Victory.

What Breuer saw was the statue of the Goddess of Victory that Albeni taught just now. This statue has only gone through two steps, and it will be very rough. Such a thing, but still thinking about pk down to the real goddess of victory, see how I can sarcasm you.

With a smile, Brewer nodded politely towards Mayor Huntley and said, "Mayor, isn't that the Statue of Victory in front of me, why don't we go in and have a look?"

Huntley actually saw the only statue of the goddess of victory in this studio, but because of the distance, he couldn't see it clearly, "Okay." Said Huntley and walked forward.

Standing in front of the Statue of Victory, Brewer shook his head and sighed as he looked at the goddess of victory whose facial features were not yet completed, "Mayor Huntley, it seems that you can't see the head of the goddess before you go abroad for inspection." The Goddess of Victory. I said Albeni and you too. Why is the Goddess of Victory still in such a state after more than a day, not to mention that her facial features are not completed, and her arms have not been added. Even the shape of the legs and feet is far from the original statue. Now, how did you carve it?"

Breuer made a sarcasm, but Alberni made no excuses.Just looking at Wang Ding beside him, he continued to give instructions, "Wang Ding, follow the instructions I just ordered to carry out the third step of carving. Remember to pay attention to details, especially in expressing the emotions of characters, and make good use of lines. Variation, highlighting the sense of hierarchy, and matching with the theme is also key."

Albani didn't want to pay attention to Breuer. From the moment he despised himself, Albani had no intention of respecting him.Wang Ding didn't need to care about Breuer's feelings at all, he was indeed intoxicated in the kingdom of sculpture.

Regardless of other people's voices, Wang Ding only entered into the sculpture creation according to the instructions of Mr. Alberni.

Because of the presence of the mayor and the curator, Dawei and Lusa also gathered around Wang Ding at this time. Wang Ding began to carve, and several people all set their eyes on Wang Ding.

The studio where no one spoke was exceptionally quiet. Looking at Wang Ding's concentration on carving, Huntley said to himself from the side, "Could it be that the Chinese want to complete the Statue of Victory at this hour?"

"How is it possible, mayor, I think we should go back first." Brewer disdainfully said, but Huntley shook his head and stopped him, "Take a look, take a look first."

Wang Ding held a small flat knife in one hand and a small round knife in the other, but he was not blind. After observing the statue vertically, Wang Ding was able to clearly see the shortcomings of the goddess of victory with the help of spiritual energy .

Relying on the guidance of spiritual energy, Wang Ding carefully carved the picture of the statue of the goddess of victory.

It was not difficult for Wang Ding to perfect the general outline of this work, so Wang Ding quickly finished shaping the lower body of the Statue of Victory.

This lower body is almost the same as the original version of the goddess of victory, but in just a few minutes, Wang Ding can create the same version of the goddess of victory, which amazes everyone.

"Is this Chinese really finished?"

Huntley seemed to have forgotten that Wang Ding and Albeni wanted to add the goddess of victory to their heads, because the current statue of the goddess of victory is already the same as the one in the Louvre.

"Mayor, this statue of Victory I think they must have followed the master model in the early stage, and what equipment they used, so it was completed so quickly, but what we want to see is not this, but how they added arms and heads to this statue. , so mayor, don't get excited."

Brewer also felt unbelievable, but he couldn't make Mayor Huntley think that this kid was just that powerful.

Huntley nodded, "Yeah, let's move on, Chinese boy, can you create the head and arms for the goddess of victory?"

Wang Ding looked back and smiled at Huntley, then turned around and carved it again with the knife in his hand.

Sculpting the head is extremely difficult, and Albeni did not tell Wang Ding the specific method at all, because the sculpting of the head is a process of accumulation, and it is impossible to teach the other party in a short time even with the method of teaching.But to Alberni's surprise, Wang Ding carried out precise carvings on the large facial features that he had originally carved, and the detailed carving techniques were knowledge that Alberni had never told Wang Ding.His hands were like flowers, turning and turning, full of wit and brilliance, within a few seconds, the mouth of the goddess of victory came out.

Before Alberni recovered from his surprise, Wang Ding's knife carved out the nose of the goddess of victory. As the knife moved up, Wang Ding began to move wantonly on the clay sculpture, like a relief sculpture. A method compresses the space, but it is not a relief, but that method still completes the eyebrows and eyes of the Goddess of Victory, and these eyes and eyebrows are integrated with the temperament of the entire Goddess of Victory.

"Wonderful! Really wonderful!"

Huntley couldn't help shouting out, although Wang Ding hadn't finally finished the head of the goddess of victory, but now, Huntley no longer has to doubt Wang Ding's strength.

He can definitely finish this sculpture of Victory.

Brewer looks like the head of the goddess of victory. She is neither big nor small, neither fat nor thin, neither Eastern nor Western, and she has a unique sense of intimacy.

While her facial features seem to be close, they are a little bit more sharp, maybe because of her eyes, her eyes are piercing, staring forward, like a goddess, a queen, she seems to have thousands of people under her command. There are tens of thousands of troops, and it seems that the opposite of her is a vast enemy army.

However, when you just look at her like that, she seems to smile at you after a few seconds, because of her mouth, the corners of her mouth are slightly raised, with a kind of Mona Lisa-like beauty.this!How did this kid do it, it's impossible! ! !

"Wang Ding, you are amazing. I think your work surpasses Samot's Victory Statue. Adding the head of the Victory Statue makes the whole work a lot more complete. It can let people know more , what the goddess of victory is thinking, what the goddess of victory is doing, she has truly become the goddess of victory."

"Yeah, Chinese boy, you are amazing. How about adding arms?" Huntley saw Wang Ding's perfect shape of the head, and looked forward to the hands of the goddess of victory.

But after Wang Ding finished carving the head, he stopped the carving knife in his hand and said meaningfully, "Mayor Huntley, I don't know if you still remember the painting of the Goddess of Victory I drew two days ago. , I didn’t draw the hands of the goddess of victory on it. I think the goddess of victory without hands has already shown her attitude and spirit, so there is no need to add more to the snake. A good sculpture must not be too much or too little , just right, so the goddess of victory is enough. Mr. Alberni, am I right?"

Albeni was already fond of this apprentice, he slapped Brewer's face hard for himself, and made his own face in front of the mayor, how could Alberni be unhappy.

"That's right. As I said before, your painting of the goddess of victory is the most perfect embodiment of the goddess of victory. Now that you have completed it based on that painting, this work of yours will definitely become a new victory." The statue of the Goddess can definitely replace the old one. As for what Director Brewer said, we can forget about it."

"What are you talking about? Alberni! No, this statue can't surpass the one in my library."

He hasn't spoken all the time, but now everyone is saying that this Statue of Victory surpasses the one in the Louvre, and Breuer is upset.

He had made a bet with Alberni, and Brewer didn't want to lose it himself. "My lord mayor, although his statue of the goddess of victory is well carved, it is not as good as the statue of the goddess of victory in the Louvre. I don't think many people will like it."

"Really? Then let's carry this statue of Victory to the Louvre Museum and see how many people like it tomorrow. What do you think, the mayor?"

Wang Ding said with a smile, Mayor Huntley also agreed.

"The Chinese boy is right. We will carry the goddess of victory to the Louvre, and I will arrange for someone."

"Mayor Huntley, my name is Wang Ding."

Wang Ding walked into Huntley, deliberately emphasizing his name to the latter, and listening to Wang Ding's friendly introduction, Huntley hurriedly shook hands and said, "Wang Ding, I, the mayor of Paris, really admire you Sculpture skills, you are better than your teacher, I think you are better than blue."

"Hey, why, I can't compare with the master, my master is the leading figure in this field."

The greetings between Wang Ding and Huntley made Brewer feel a little depressed. He originally wanted to bring the mayor over to see their creations, and to be sarcastic, but he didn't want to shoot himself in the foot. This Wang Ding really has something . (To be continued.)
