In the beginning, Chu Chen operated several knives in order to experience the feeling of carving. Because the force used was different, it looked the same as normal beginners, and there was nothing to show the purpose.
But then Chu Chen realized the feeling, and combined with the movement that Gu Qifei used when he was carving, although he didn't speed up the speed of cutting, he had a clear idea.
This surprised Gu Jianming and Gu Qifei, because they had never seen anyone who could use a knife skillfully after several times.
However, what is more surprising is still behind. After understanding the feelings, Chu Chen had a comprehensive understanding of rough carving in his heart. Although this understanding was only limited to the dry green jade in front of him, carving originally depended on the accumulation of experience. As long as he slowly experimented in the future, he could quickly understand other jade qualities.
So next, Chu Chen directly came to a long Dao. Just when other people thought Chu Chen had made a mistake, they were surprised to find that Chu Chen's Dao was just in place. This kind of situation appeared in beginners. It really made people think that it was just Chu Chen's good luck, so it was a mistake I've done it once.
However, Chu Chen's later movements clearly told them that Chu Chen was not lucky just now, but that Chu Chen had mastered the knack and not only mastered it. Seeing Chu Chen's relaxed appearance now, he was just like a jade carving teacher Fu, which made everyone around him dumbfounded.
Although it took some time at first because of his unskilled, Chu Chen's speed was almost the same as Gu Qifei's, so when Chu Chen finished the rough carving, the time was not much slower than Gu Qifei's.
Just as Chu Chen picked up the tool, he saw Gu Qifei, who was stunned beside him. This made him feel strange. When he looked back, he found that other people had the same expression. He asked, "what's the matter with you?"
Gu Jianming came back and said, "boss, is this really your first carving?"
"If it's not my first carving, I don't need you to introduce the knowledge to me before." Chuchen shrugged his shoulders and said.
It's also true that Chu Chen's initial Dao should have been made by beginners, and the position of the string bean pendant at the beginning of the Dao can clearly show that his performance is naive, which is really the level of beginners.
"Well Boss, how did you learn? I've never seen anyone learn as fast as you Looking at the rough embryo of the pendant on the workbench, Gu Jianming was not impressed by what he thought, believing that it would be a beginner's work.
Chuchen said with a smile, "maybe it's because I'm a trainer. I'm not only stronger than ordinary people, but also have a good command of my muscles."
When you hear Chu Chen say this, you suddenly realize that if you want to learn jade carving well, strength is an essential factor, and muscle control is the most important thing. If you are different from ordinary people in this aspect, you may learn jade carving faster than others.
However, Gu Jianming and Gu Qifei are still surprised by Chu Chen's fast learning. However, it is true that there are all kinds of strange things in the world. Maybe there are people like Chu Chen who can learn so fast in the world.
Moreover, Chu Chen's carving is completely normal. They can't see anything strange about Chu Chen, and they don't think that Chu Chen would be a special person with powers. Of course, Chu Chen didn't use powers when he was learning carving just now.
Next, Chu Chen used a knife to carefully carve the string bean pendant. The final product, except for the position of the knife at the beginning, was almost as good as Gu Qifei's carving, which surprised others.
Gu Qifei couldn't help sighing: "boss, your talent in this field is really amazing. If you can devote yourself to studying for a period of time, I believe you can become a jade carving master in a short time."
Chuchen waved his hand with a smile and said, "master Gu, you are really flattered. But what I am short of now is time. It is estimated that the time I can become a jade carving master can only be behind the two."
Chuchen's words put a little pressure on Gu Jianming and Gu Qifei. They didn't want to wait until chuchen became a master of jade carving, but their jade carving skills were still in the same place.
However, Chu Chen is a genius after all. With his performance just now, even if Chu Chen becomes a jade carving master tomorrow, they will not be surprised. Therefore, although they have pressure, they are not big.
Chu Chen looked at the time and said, "it's getting late. We'd better wait until tomorrow for the polishing! In the evening, I invite you to have a meal... "
…………
In the evening, we had a lively dinner, and then we discussed the business of the shop, which made it nearly 11 o'clock when Chu Chen came home.Originally, he planned to remove a piece of jadeite for a rainy day, but it was so late that it was not suitable to remove the stone. In addition, he received a call from Cao Hui at dinner and had to go to an appointment tomorrow, so he took a bath and went to bed.
The appointed time with Cao Hui was 9:30 a.m., so Chu Chen happened to visit LV Fuquan and his wife in the military hospital.
If Mrs. Lu's leg had been operated on at that time, she would not have lived in the hospital for such a long time. However, it would have been lucky to be able to keep it because of the delay. Now it is estimated that it will take at least half a year for her to recover completely.
Originally, if LV Fu's family had a good family condition and was close to the hospital, they would be able to leave the hospital by now. However, his family lives in a mountainous area, the transportation is inconvenient, and the convalescence time is long. If they don't take good care of them, it is likely that something will happen.
Therefore, when Chu Chen was in the porcelain capital some time ago, LV Fuquan called him and said he wanted to leave the hospital, but he didn't agree.
Today, when they arrived at the hospital, LV Fuquan and his wife proposed the idea of leaving the hospital with Chu Chen. Of course, Chu Chen also did not agree, and explained the advantages and disadvantages to them. When they heard that there might be repetition, they were afraid and hesitated.
Seeing this, Chu Chen again tried to persuade them. After thinking about it, the couple finally gave up because they were afraid.
Chu Chen reassured LV Fuquan and his wife that they should not worry about the medical expenses. Then he went to visit Miao Yuren and gave him some gifts.
Although director Miao is a bully, Chu Chen doesn't like this kind of person, but this is the same thing in this society. Under the leadership of Li, it's not uncommon to see such people as bully, despise the poor and love the rich. And as Mr. Liu told him before, although some people are villains, they are very helpful to themselves and others as long as they are used well It's helpful.
Now Chu Chen understands this from director Miao. Although he is very annoying, he takes good care of LV Fuquan and his wife. In principle, Chu Chen does not mean to give him some rewards.
In addition to gifts, Chu Chen also left a sum of medical expenses. For him, he could not take advantage of the public too much
After he came out of the military hospital, Chu Chen drove to Liulichang. It is a familiar cultural street in the capital, where books, calligraphy and paintings, antiques and study are collected. It is also a must for domestic and foreign tourists to visit the capital culture.
Cao Hui's painting and calligraphy company is located in Liulichang. According to the address on his business card, Chu Chen found a shop that looks antique. When he walked in, he found that the pattern here is the form of an imitation Gallery, but unlike foreign galleries, there are only traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy.
Therefore, compared with the general calligraphy and painting antique shop, Chu Chen felt that the layout here was somewhat novel.
As soon as Chu Chen entered the store, a waiter in a cheongsam came over and said with a smile, "Sir, what can I do for you?"
Chu Chen politely said: "I have an appointment with you, Mr. Cao. Please let me know."
"OK, just a moment!" After nodding, the waiter hurried inside.
During this period, Chu Chen casually appreciated several works at the door.
Maybe it's to attract customers' attention. Some of the works at the gate are also good. The authors are all famous calligraphers and painters in the Qing Dynasty. Among them, the most attractive one is Wu Dan's Fisherman's painting.
Wudan, with the word Zhongbai, was a famous painter during the reign of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty. He is good at landscape painting, fine brushwork and freehand brushwork. His brushwork is clear, vigorous and meticulous. The fisherman painting in front of Chu Chen reflects Wu Dan's painting style.
"Fishing, woodcutting, ploughing and reading" are the most common themes in literati paintings, among which there are expressions of literati hermits' desire to escape from the world, especially "fishing hermit".
In front of me, this colored silk painting, far away from the vast river, can be described as the same color of water and sky. The recent work is a flat slope of cangmu, with lots of hard stones. Beside the slope, there is a boat in the water, which seems to travel between heaven and earth, clouds and water. It is free and easy to return to nature. On the boat, the fisherman wears a straw hat on his head and holds a boat in both hands at the stern of the boat for rowing. At the bow of the boat, there is a fisherman bending over and holding a fish basket in both hands. Under the cool awning, the children stretch their heads out, which is full of meaning.
The composition of this work can be described as simple and flexible, the ink is blurred and mellow, and the artistic conception is elegant and elegant. It also has the style of literati in song and Yuan Dynasties. This kind of painting style and artistic conception, let Chu Chen see, can't help but want to put him in the bag.
Just when Chu Chen wanted to observe it more carefully, the waiter just brought Cao Hui over.
After warmly greeting Chu Chen, Cao Hui asked with a smile: "Chu Shao, are you interested in this work?"
