The jade carving competition is divided into two parts, flower selection among flowers. Those selected in the first part may also be the elites in the jade carving world, but one thing is for sure, the selection of materials cannot pass the eyes of Tian Hong Shuangxue and the knife skills of the objects.
Much inferior to the two jade carvers who participated in the selection.
Judging the quality of a jade carving is nothing more than a comprehensive judgment from several aspects: texture, craftsmanship, use of beautiful colors, creativity, and charm. Really mature and experienced jade carvers pay more attention to the last two, creativity and charm. Jade and jade can speak for themselves.
It is a naturally occurring mineral and is highly sought after because of people's love for it.
The ancients chanted jade, gathering the aura of heaven and earth, and the essence of mountains and rivers. They were born in stubborn rocks and emerged from the nature of stone. What is tested in carving jade is not only the sword skills of jade carvers, but also creativity and charm. There are only two
Only by the harmonious coexistence of the two can a piece of beautiful jade be carved into a treasure passed down from generation to generation. What the jade carvers gain is not only fame and wealth. Being able to carve out a treasure passed down from generation to generation can also give the jade carver great spiritual enjoyment. In other words, this is also a kind of spirit.
Sublime your realm!
The second part of the jade carving competition is the selection of jade carvings jointly judged by three masters in the jade carving world. These three masters are all old people in their seventies, Xue Hongyun, Mao Mingshan, and Lu Gaoyang. All three of them have known each other for dozens of years.
My close friends from 2000, Mao and Lu, came to serve as judges for the competition today just for fun. Their real intention was to congratulate their old friend Xue Hongyun on sealing the sword and returning to seclusion.
Three master-level old men were sitting on the podium in the large conference room. There was a table covered with light yellow velvet in front of them. This was all very particular. None of the remaining jade carvings after screening were yellow. Use this color.
A velvet cloth floor is most suitable.
There was an erected object placed in front of Xue Hongyun, which was covered tightly with a red silk cloth. No one knew what was inside, with the exception of course, Xu Qing, who was sitting in the first row on the stage.
You know, it was precisely because of the things inside that he was lucky enough to become a disciple of Mr. Xue and become a less qualified jade carver.
Mao Mingshan is a bald old man. Compared to the two old friends around him, his figure is the best maintained. As the saying goes, old age cannot be bought, but he is the standard tall and thin figure, and he has a habit,
No matter where he goes, he carries a pot with him, a small teapot carved from the finest black jade. It is unknown what kind of tea is in the pot.
Lu Gaoyang is a slightly fat old man. He wears a jasper ring on his left thumb, which gives people the feeling of an old wealthy businessman. If he hangs a big gold chain around his neck, which is as thick as the belly of his little finger, he will look like a wealthy businessman.
Become a nouveau riche.
Mr. Xue was in a good mood today. He always had a faint smile on his face. People could feel a special affinity in front of him. He knew that the two old friends were here for face, and he was not interested in them.
Money and fame have become slaves that come and go when called upon, and are not something worth caring about.
There were not many empty seats in the huge conference room. In addition to the jade carvers, there were also journalists sent by major media outlets across the country, and even various famous businessmen who came here because of their fame. Everyone had one thing in common.
Point, like jade carvings or admire the three masters.
Anyone who is at the pinnacle of the industry is worthy of admiration. Countless people desperately want to reach their heights but find it difficult to do so. Some people's success involves hard work, talent, luck, luck and other factors, and many people reach their heights.
The success of people at the top of the industry cannot be replicated, so they are admired and admired by others.
Just like many competition treasure appraisal programs, this kind of competition also needs a eloquent host. What surprised Xu Qing was that the host this time was actually an acquaintance, fat brother Liu Youfu. To be precise, he has now
He is no longer a fat man, his figure has become that of a standard sportsman. I have to admit that the previous balloon theory failed. It turns out that the skin of an inflated balloon can be wrinkled after it slowly leaks.
Liu Youfu is wearing a gray cloth gown today. If in the old days, the distinction between long and short gowns represented the rich and the poor, there was a saying that the short gown was poor and the long gown was rich. However, in modern times, the long gown no longer has this meaning. It is just a retro attire.
Wearing a decent gown can easily attract people's attention. To be a host, you need to know how to focus. The highest level is to be able to focus the audience's attention and then move it at will. To put it bluntly, the highest level that various famous speakers can achieve is to be able to focus on different topics.
Become the center of attention without revealing anything.
Liu Youfu looked good, but he soon found that everyone's eyes were focused on the three jade carving masters, and they ignored him as the host. He seemed to have expected this situation, and he stretched out his hand from his long gown.
He slowly pulled out a corner of the white cloth at the placket, and pulled it out inch by inch, very slowly, but very steadily.
The white corner of the cloth quickly attracted everyone's attention. Many people began to pay attention to Liu Youfu's fingers. They wondered what he would pull out. Is it a handkerchief? It seems to be longer? He is still tilting his head.
With a calm expression, he pulled the corners of the cloth out of his clothes inch by inch.
After about half a minute, Liu Youfu had successfully attracted the attention of everyone on and off the stage. No one knew how many strips of cloth were hidden in his lapel, and a small pile of white flowers fell off.
Liu Youfu quietly brought the microphone to his mouth and whispered: "Dear guests, future masters in the jade carving world, before showing off your exquisitely crafted works, please allow me to take out the good things in my arms."
As soon as he finished speaking, the last piece of cloth slipped from the lapel and fell to the ground. It was the cloth strip. A look of disappointment appeared on the faces of people in the audience, and some of them booed.
"What are you doing? You're cheating!" "Didn't this guy steal my mother-in-law's foot wrap?" Several guests in the audience complained. It was undeniable that this handsome host successfully attracted everyone's attention.
But using this method is too vulgar and has no useful information at all. Making a roll of foot binding tape to deceive people is too deceptive.
Liu Youfu smiled calmly and said: "Don't be busy. We are all gentlemen. Didn't you see that I still have something in my hand?" As he spoke, he took his hands out of his clothes and raised them above his head, and everyone's eyes focused again.
On his raised palm, the expression on his face suddenly became wonderful, because he was holding an artifact in his hand, which was a red brick.
"This tile is the best soapstone!" I don't know who recognized the true texture of this tile and let out an excited shout. The jade carvers present were no strangers to chicken bloodstone, but it can be called the best soapstone.
The price is not inferior to that of top-quality jade. A top-quality chicken blood stone weighing less than ten kilograms was once sold for a high price of eight figures. The brick held high in Liu Youfu's hand looked like it weighed no less than three kilograms.
Liu Youfu raised his hand and threw the chicken blood slate brick on the ground, and said with a smile: "This brick is a small souvenir given to the final winner today!"
