I still feel very guilty. Just now the driver said that he doesn't even know how to do it anymore. It's obvious that this skill is not just a matter of knowing a few words about the process.
Looking at these processes and making molds in front of me, I was really at a loss. I didn't even know what those molds were.
But the big words have already been spoken, and even if you catch the duck, you have to bite the bullet.
Xiaoqi and the others still looked like they were watching a good show, staring at me in embarrassment.
And the old gentleman seemed to think that I really knew how to do it. He looked at me calmly.
I smiled stiffly, then walked to the molds and asked the old man in a low voice: "Mr. Maimaiti, can you introduce these molds to me?"
When Xiaoqi and the others heard what I said, they immediately laughed. A boy next to them said, "Is this what you said? Can you stop being funny? You don't even know what these molds are, so you're not as good as me."
Xiao Qi also laughed and said: "Qiangzi, come on, you go and introduce him."
The boy who spoke just now walked towards me with a confident look on his face and said to me: "The one in front of you is called the engraving wooden mold, the one next to you is the carved wooden mold, and this one"
He really knew the names of these molds, and I glanced at the old man, and he was nodding with satisfaction, obviously everything was right.
Although I don't know any of these things, the driver just told me how to use them. I only know the uses.
After he finished telling me, he walked up to me, patted my shoulder and said, "Brother, if it doesn't work, let's just say it. It doesn't matter. It won't be fun if something happens."
"Get out of my way, I'm going to start."
"Qiangzi, come back." Xiao Qi called him.
Before starting production, I wanted to take a look at the processes I just recorded on my phone, so I said: "Mr. Maimaiti, I want to go to the toilet and will be back soon."
"Okay, Sanger, please take him to the toilet." The old gentleman said to a boy next to him who looked like a book boy.
Xiao Qi immediately laughed and said: "Don't take the opportunity to run away! I'm still waiting to see you embarrassed."
"I won't run away, don't worry."
On the way to the toilet, I took out my phone and quickly looked at the processes I just wrote down, memorizing them as quickly as possible.
This is due to my good memory since I was a child. In addition, I have entered it once on my mobile phone before, and now I quickly read it several times, and I almost remember it.
A few minutes later, I returned to the place where the printed fabrics were made, and Xiao Qi and the other three still looked like they were just waiting to watch the show.
To be honest, I still feel guilty, but I have no choice but to close the road.
According to the process, I first do single-color printing, first copy the pattern on thick cardboard, and use the hollow pattern as a printing plate.
When printing and dyeing, place the hollow plate on the white cloth, and then apply mortar to the hollow pattern, and the mortar will adhere to the cloth.
Then remove the engraving plate, put the cloth into the dye solution, let it dry, peel off the dust, and then the printing will appear.
I do it very slowly. Before each step, I have to think about the next step. I am worried that if a step goes wrong, I will make a fool of myself.
Everything went smoothly. Half an hour later, I made a hollow monochrome print.
Although the pattern is not very good, it is still a success.
The old gentleman also clapped beside him and said: "It's good. Although it has some flaws, it's still very good. Let me make another multi-color print."
At this time, Xiao Qi and the three of them could not sit still, and the expressions on their faces were already a little stiff.
Don't worry, I'm not done yet.
Multi-color printing is more complicated, so I took the opportunity to go to the toilet again.
I watched the process of multi-color printing over and over again in the toilet, and then returned to the place of production.
Before I started making them, I asked the old man to introduce the names of these molds to me, so I needed to know what they were.
Only then did the production begin. Mineral dye was added to the wooden mold and then printed on earthen white cloth.
Then continue to add multiple wooden molds, so that a variety of different wooden mold patterns are combined together to form colorful printed cloth.
Although multi-color printing is more complicated than single-color printing, the production process is simple and only needs to repeat a lot of actions.
It also took me half an hour to make a wall hanging with multi-color printed patterns, and the printing effect was pretty good.
Once again, he received applause from the old gentleman and praised: "It's really good. Where did you learn this skill, young man?"
I glanced at the expressions of Xiaoqi and the others, then smiled and said, "I have nothing to learn blindly. I am just interested in these intangible cultural heritages, so I brought them here to learn from the old gentleman."
Xiao Qi's expression was almost distorted, but she had nothing to say.
The old gentleman immediately said to Xiao Qi: "Ms. Yang, you are really talented in your team! Then let's get started."
Xiaoqi looked at me incredulously, and then replied mechanically: "Okay, old sir, let's get ready, get ready."
I walked up to Xiao Qi with a proud look on my face, raised my eyebrows at her and said, "How is it? Miss Yang."
Xiao Qi rolled her eyes at me and whispered: "You must be awesome."
"You have to eat this camera, you just said that."
"you"
"Don't want to eat? That's fine. After you finish filming, let's have a good chat."
She glared at me angrily, said "rascal" and went about her business.
They have to go to work, so I won't disturb them anymore.
I was waiting by myself, when my cell phone suddenly rang.
The call was from Gao Sheng. After the call was answered, he asked me: "Boss, when will you be back?"
"I'm not sure, what's wrong?"
"Didn't you say that Yoona's live broadcast will start tomorrow? Why don't you come back to organize it?"
I felt speechless and said: "I said Gao Sheng, you have led so many Internet celebrities, and you have done so many live broadcasts, large and small, and you still come to ask me?"
"Boss, I, Yoona, have a huge fan base. This is another typical commercial sales model. I'm afraid I might screw it up for you."
"If you're afraid, then don't do it again."
"No, no, no, boss, I was wrong, I'm going to prepare now."
This kid needs to be stricter with him so that he can show his true abilities.
I said to him again: "There are no other requirements. The only thing is to move the live broadcast room to the factory over there. You just need to contact their boss directly. In addition, the logistics side has also taken care of it. Don't ask me about these things in the future."
Am I too busy to come here?"
"Okay, I understand, boss, please do your work first."
After ending the call, I left the yard and went outside to smoke a cigarette.
I don’t know how long they will continue to shoot, and I guess they won’t be able to finish it in a while.
I had to take this time to contact another team I wanted, and this team was amazing. They mainly shot some high-quality jokes.
They have accounts on multiple platforms, and the total number of fans on all platforms exceeds 50 million, which can be said to be more fans than Xiaoqi.
It's just that the potential of this team is not as great as Xiaoqi's. Xiaoqi just doesn't know how to operate, and he is also a fan of a single platform.
As for this team, I have contacted them before, and they did not refuse or agree.
There are seven of them in total, including photographers, directors, screenwriters, and actors, and they all take turns.
It is a very young team, and it is said that their annual advertising revenue alone is tens of millions.
It is very difficult for such a team to join our company, but fortunately they are not like Xiaoqi who clearly refuses.
According to what they meant, they wanted to know how much remuneration I could offer them, and the reason for calling them was to confirm this matter.
