Chapter 93 How Powerful Are You?
Tang Zhenzhong stepped onto the stage a little excitedly, picked up the carving knife, and was about to touch the jade, but was stopped by Suhang.He was a little puzzled and cast a questioning look.Su Hang looked calm and said: "Before carving, you must first see if the jade is in line with what you want in your heart. Not every piece of jade can be carved into bamboo."

Only then did Tang Zhenzhong understand, and he couldn't help being a little embarrassed.This is not an esoteric truth, in fact any skilled engraver understands it.He just wanted to be taught by Suhang on the spot, and he was a little nervous, so he forgot this step.

Calming down, Tang Zhenzhong picked out one of the jade stones on the table after carefully observing them for a while.Suhang looked over and saw that the jade aura was not straight, but a little distorted. Strictly speaking, it was also not suitable for carving bamboo.But considering that Tang Zhenzhong didn't know how to look after qi, and what he wanted to teach was to change qi with charm, so he didn't say a word to remind him.

Holding the carving knife in his hand, Tang Zhenzhong began to sharpen it little by little.Compared with Suhang's speed of one piece in a few minutes, he was much slower.After a full hour, I was so tired that I was sweating profusely, and only the outline was worn out.If he hadn't worn the health jade card and drank spiritual tea every day, he would have been unable to persist.

Suhang has been watching from the side, occasionally saying a word.Every sentence is criticizing Tang Zhenzhong's mistakes.

"Bamboo is a gentleman, and a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. There is a small crack here, and you didn't realize in advance that it would cut off the whole bamboo."

"Although bamboo is upright, it has a soft and gentle appearance. Remember, what you carve is a gentleman, not bamboo. No gentleman is so serious."

"The so-called charm means that what you think in your heart matches the jade. Only when you carve out your mind, can there be charm. This is not painting. Jade is three-dimensional, not a plane. If you just portray the inherent shape, then It's the machine."

A sentence of simple and easy-to-understand words made Tang Zhenzhong constantly correct his mistakes, and the sculptors in the audience were all thoughtful.Although many people are good at different things, some are good at lettering, some are good at carving objects, but as long as it is carving, the principles are the same.When Suhang told these people, he was also telling others.

The customers who came to Tang's jewelry store stopped in their tracks.Almost everyone stopped thinking about shopping. They looked at Tang Zhenzhong, who was dripping sweat on the stage and being reprimanded like a student. They were amazed and admired at the same time.Not only do I admire Suhang's deep understanding of carving, but I also admire Tang Zhenzhong's great reputation, and he can put down his airs and learn it seriously.

Someone took this picture with a mobile phone and planned to post it on the Internet in his spare time.Because of this picture, they had a deeper impression of Tang's jade carvings.Even the famous Tang Zhenzhong is studying carving seriously, isn't that enough to explain the rigor of Tang's jade carving?Only with such a rigorous attitude can we carve out the best works!

It can be said that from this moment, Tang's jade carvings have become unrivaled.Maybe they are still lacking in shopping malls, but spiritually, they have already defeated all jade merchants!
The whole morning passed quickly.When Tang Zhenzhong put the final product on the table, he was too tired to move.Carving a finished product in just a few hours was unimaginable before.This is purely forced, because Suhang's teaching method is that you can't always polish jade a little bit.If he is really confident, then the jade in front of him should already have a concrete image.That being the case, cut off the unnecessary parts directly, and the rest will naturally be the essence, why do you need to polish it?
Although not everyone can do what he does, Tang Zhenzhong's speed has indeed improved a lot because of it.If he carves bamboo again in the future, he will involuntarily have a specific picture of the finished product in his mind.Compared with the past, such progress is simply unimaginable.

"Barely catches the eye, but the charm is not enough, and it has not reached the point of changing the spirit." Su Hang commented.

These words were very blunt, but Tang Zhenzhong was overjoyed.When they met for the first time, Suhang commented that his bamboo was rubbish, but now, it can be seen.

Looking at the sculptor under the stage, Su Hang said softly: "Remember, the first place for a finished product to appear should not be the table, but your heart. If there is no such picture in your heart, it will be forever Can't carve a charm."

Tang Zhenzhong agreed with his face, seeing that the bamboo he carved today, although there is still a big gap compared with Suzhou and Hangzhou, has made great progress compared to before.At the very least, it can vaguely make people feel a gentleman's charm.

Looking up at the sunlight outside, Suhang left from the carving table.It was only then that Tang Zhenzhong remembered that he only agreed to stay here for half a day today.Suhang took out the tea leaves for Zhan Wenbai, and when he learned that the tea was going to be auctioned, Tang Zhenzhong wanted to buy it directly.But he knew that Suhang's willingness to take out tea was not only for making money, but also for saving those "patients" who were always clamoring for tea.

And until Suhang left the jewelry store, Tang Zhenzhong suddenly remembered that a Hongkonger seemed to come to buy that song?He slapped his forehead and was busy with carving, how could he forget about it.

Su Hang, who has left the house, already has many people who know him.Along the way, many people who had seen his appearance took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Master Su."

Suhang politely responded one by one without putting on any airs, which attracted many people's favor.When he was about to reach the street, Su Hang suddenly heard someone shouting: "Huh, Mr. Su?"

He turned his head and saw a man with a gold chain around his neck walking towards him.With him, there was a girl who seemed to have just come of age.After thinking about it for a while, he remembered that this person was Wei Dongsheng, the owner of Sanya Piano Shop.Not long ago, Liu Xiahui and the others accidentally broke a guqin in order to surprise him on his birthday, which made Wei Dongsheng angry.If it weren't for Suhang to go there, I'm afraid that the three of them will suffer a great crime.

However, Wei Dongsheng was able to bend and stretch, which impressed Suhang deeply. Seeing him take the initiative to greet him, Suhang stood where he was and responded.Wei Dongsheng looked happy, and walked over and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Su to be here... Oh, by the way, I almost forgot that Mr. Su is still the engraver of Tang's jewelry store, and he comes to do on-site carving every weekend. What, it seems Are you leaving?"

Suhang nodded and said, "I have something to do, so I'll go ahead for a while."

Wei Dongsheng snorted, then seemed to remember something, quickly pulled a girl beside him over, and said, "Girl, don't you want to learn Guqin? Mr. Su's piano skills are very good, or you can ask him to be your teacher." .”

Suhang frowned slightly, and was thinking how to refuse, but saw the girl said with an unhappy face: "I don't want it, he is so young, he looks a few years older than me, maybe he can't play as well as me. "

Wei Dongsheng got angry for a while: "You girl know nothing, Mr. Su's piano skills are really good!"

"I don't want to be great!" The girl with freckles snorted, and said proudly: "I transferred to Jiangsu and Zhejiang this time, and I was introduced by my high school classmates. Her brother Jia Qingfei used to be a member of the Provincial Guqin Research Association, the youngest Now he has been selected into the special training class of Huanhuan University, which is amazing! We have already contacted him, and he will personally teach me after completing the transfer procedures!"

"A member of the Provincial Research Association? It sounds really good..." Although Wei Dongsheng runs a piano shop, he doesn't really know Guqin very well.A large part of the reason why he did this was just to launder the black money he had obtained before.As for the guqin circle, that is another world, and has nothing to do with him.

The girl looked at Suhang and said, "Look at you, you are also a college student. Have you ever heard of the special training class for folk music in Central University?"

Suhang nodded: "I've heard of it."

"Aren't you a member of it?" the girl asked again.

Su Hang shook his head: "No."

The girl said to Wei Dongsheng: "Look, he's not even a regular member, yet you lied to me that he's great!"

Embarrassed, Wei Dongsheng showed an apologetic expression to Su Hang, and said, "This child has been living with her grandma and is spoiled, Mr. Su, don't mind."

Of course Suhang would not mind, but instead thought this girl was quite interesting.Carefree, very much like his cousin in his hometown.Although the other party underestimated him, Suhang didn't think there was anything wrong.Compared with Jia Qingfei, he really has no reputation.Maybe he already has a group of fans on the Internet.But that's just a small circle. In reality, many people who play Guqin don't even like surfing the Internet, let alone watching videos.Even Suhang himself hasn't touched a mouse for a long time.

While the three of them were talking, a man was running towards this side quickly.His clothes were disheveled, his hair was messy, and he looked a bit embarrassed.

This is none other than Luo Hua, a talented lyricist who flew all the way from Hong Kong.Hearing that Suzhou and Hangzhou would come to the jewelry store on weekends, Luo Hua stayed in a nearby hotel.As a result, because of the excitement and anticipation, I suffered from insomnia all night and did not fall asleep until early morning.When I opened my eyes, it was already noon.

Without brushing his teeth and washing his face, he put on his clothes and hurried to the jewelry store.Tang Zhenzhong made it very clear that if he didn't meet him today, he would have to wait until next week.

Now that video is still spreading on the Internet, maybe someone will find out the news like Luo Hua in the next moment.Long nights and many dreams, Luo Hua can't wait for next week.

When running from the street to the jewelry store, Luo Hua was still thinking about how to talk to people about buying piano music.He was so engrossed in thinking that he didn't have the idea to look at the road, so he bumped into Su Hang's body directly.He sits in front of the computer all year round, and his body is weak, so he can't be compared with Suhang.There was a direct oops, if Suhang hadn't pulled it in time, I'm afraid it would have fallen unclear.

Luo Hua knew he bumped into someone, so he quickly said sorry in poor Mandarin.At this time, a hesitant voice came from the side: "Are you... Luo Hua?"

Luo Hua turned his head, looked at the girl who was looking at him in surprise, then nodded, and asked, "Who are you?"

"You are really Luo Hua! My God! The most famous talented lyricist in Hong Kong! Why are you here!" The freckled girl standing next to Wei Dongsheng couldn't believe it, feeling like her heart was about to jump out of her throat .
