After seeing Chen Wuji off, Li Yang went to the old man's place again.
He was going to Jieyang to attend an event in a few days. He hadn't visited He Lao for a long time, so he took advantage of this time to stop by and have a look.
Jieyang, since Chen Wuji broke through and became a master, its position in the jade carving industry has become more and more important. With Chen Wuji, a generation of masters, Jieyang seems to have the tendency to surpass Suzhou and become the leader of new jade carving.
People in the jade carving industry in Suzhou are very unwilling to accept this point. They admire Chen Wuji very much, but Chen Wuji is only one person, and the overall level of jade carving in Jieyang is still not comparable to that in Suzhou.
So over the past year, the jade carving masters in Suzhou and Jieyang have always been competing, and there have been some minor frictions from time to time.
All this was seen by the Jade Association.
Competition is a good thing. Healthy competition can promote common progress and development between both parties, but vicious competition is not good. Now the competition between Suzhou and Jieyang has a tendency to develop viciously.
The Jade Association held discussions and decided to provide guidance to make this competition healthy again.
The guidance was simple. They learned from the success of the Suzhou and Jieyang twin-city masters tournaments and decided to hold a national masters tournament. The location of the first national masters tournament was set in Jieyang.
With Chen Wuji in charge in Jieyang, no one would say anything here.
The Twin Cities Masters Competition has been successfully held for so many times, and the results achieved are very good. The two sister cities of Jieyang and Suzhou have developed and encouraged many jade carving talents through this honorary form.
The two cities have now become important jade carving bases in the country, and their scale is unmatched by other cities.
With such successful experience, people from the Jade Association also believe that the National Jade Carving Masters Competition can achieve good results and make the jade carving industry across the country prosper.
Nowadays, people's living standards have improved overall, but the jade carving industry has not fully kept up. No matter how many masters appear, the national market can afford them and there is no need to worry about over-development and saturation of the market.
This time, the Jade Carving Masters Competition has even alarmed the China Treasures Association. The president of the Jade Association personally took charge, and Vice Chairman Xu of the China Treasures Association served as a consultant. They all arrived in Jieyang in advance to make preparations.
This is what Li Yang wants to participate in.
Nowadays, Li Yang's level is still a little behind the top masters, but he is already qualified to compete with masters like Huang Hao. Huang Hao has been the champion of the Twin Cities Masters Tournament for several consecutive years.
It is said that he has the ability to win the championship.
This also means that Li Yang also has the potential to win the championship.
Moreover, it can be said that the Masters Competition held by the Jade Association is held at the right time. Jade carving masters from all over the country have long wanted to compete in this way. Unfortunately, they do not have much local influence and cannot organize such a Masters Competition.
As for Jieyang and Suzhou, it has been made clear from the beginning that only those who were born in or studied in the two places can participate, and others will not be accepted.
This Jade Association has also opened a door for jade carving masters from other places, a threshold to communicate with masters from all over the country. Jade carving masters from all over the country are very supportive of this event.
The only two places that want to oppose it are Suzhou and Jieyang. The whole country is developing, which will inevitably affect the influence of the two places. However, the development of the country is a trend and a good thing. People in the two places dare not stop it.
Not to mention, Chen Wuji strongly supported this event because of Chen Wuji's terrifying influence in Jieyang. As long as he supported it, there would be no objection from Jieyang.
The car soon arrived at the old man's house, and the guard told Li Yang that the old man was reading in the study.
Li Yang nodded and went directly to the old man's study upstairs. He was the only one who could go in without saying hello.
"Old man!"
In the study room, the old man was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed and concentrating. He was reading a book just now, and now he is taking a rest when he is tired.
"Here, come and sit!"
The old man opened his eyes and waved to Li Yang with a smile. Li Yang did not sit down, but walked directly behind the old man and gently pressed his shoulders.
“How’s the museum going?”
The old man closed his eyes again, but there was a lot more smile on his face than before.
“The progress is going very smoothly and it may be completed ahead of schedule!”
Li Yang's museum was completely hyped before construction started. Almost everyone knew that the owner of this museum was Li Yang.
Li Yang's identity is no longer a secret to the authorities. After his marriage, everyone in Beijing from Haidian District to various ministries and commissions knew about Li Yang's horrific background.
Coupled with Li Yang's own influence, everyone knew that this museum was to bring glory to the country. In this case, no one would have any embarrassment.
Not to mention, Li Yang’s museum was specially greeted by the state.
Therefore, anything related to the Li Yang Museum must be approved as quickly as possible. With this premise, the originally calculated time can be saved, and it is not difficult to complete the project ahead of schedule.
Although it is only a few months ahead of schedule, it is an absolute good thing for Li Yang. If it is completed one day earlier, it means that his museum can open one day earlier, and all the treasures are ready.
"good!"
The old man smiled and nodded. Li Yang's museum was also something he cared about.
This museum not only brought glory to Li Yang, but also added a lot of glory to the old man. Everyone knew that Li Yang was his disciple. Now his disciple has built the largest Si museum in China and even in the world.
, as Li Yang’s teacher, as a Bole old man, the pride I feel cannot be expressed in words.
"Old man, I will go to Jieyang in two days, and I will bring you a gift then!"
The speed of Li Yang's hands increased a little, and the smile on the old man's face became thicker, and he nodded gently. After Li Yang's Tai Chi skills reached an advanced level, he could control his hand strength more flexibly, and with the addition of Tai Chi
His massage is much more comfortable than those so-called high-end masseuses.
It was in the morning when Chen Wuji was sent off, and Li Yang stayed at the old man's place in the afternoon, and had dinner here in the evening.
Li Yang also called Wang Jiajia to have dinner with him. The two of them had not eaten at the old man's place for a long time.
Three days later, Li Yang handed over all matters in hand to Wang Jiajia, and took Zhao Kui and Haidong directly to Jieyang. The National Masters Championship was held in only two days. He was the representative of Jieyang and wanted to go to Jieyang to meet someone.
Meet the local masters. This time it is not only an individual competition, but also a regional competition.
Before it even started, many jade carving masters in the north had announced that this time the north would definitely defeat the south and win the first place in the first national jade carving masters competition.
I drank too much yesterday, so I rushed through 2,000 words this morning. This chapter has a small number of words, so it is from yesterday. Xiaoyu will update more in the evening, and there will be three updates tonight!!.
