The jade carving competition held by Tianhong Group is coming to an end. Three jade carving masters spent two days appraising the objects and finally selected the final winner of this competition. This ladle of fertilizer was not poured into the outsiders' fields. Xue Hongyun's
Student Xu Qing was unanimously recognized by the three masters of jade carving.
Xu Qing was actually a little depressed, because the jade cabbage he had spent so much time carving was of no use at all. In the end, the shameless elder brother took it back and made it into a decoration. Instead, it took him less than half an hour to carve the dragon and phoenix drinking blood.
The cup became a scent in the hands of the three masters. They turned it around hundreds of times before reluctantly letting it go. As a result, Mr. Xue took it away before classmate Xiao Xu held it in his hand.
Change to smaller size.
The second place fell to Gu Panpan. This girl's purple grape sculpture was really good, especially after the freckles painted on her face were washed away, revealing a very charming face, which became a bright spot in this competition.
In the scenery, many strange eyes did not fall on the violet grapes, but instead fell on her swollen breasts. It was also a good place for growing grapes. Only two protruding points were vaguely visible, and each girl was different in size.
The third place was a big brother who looked like a mountain gun. This brother sent him a Crouching Tiger Arhat ornament, which was made of jadeite with gold wire. The creativity and charm were first-class, but Mao Mingshan gave him a very fair evaluation,
The tiger was better at carving than the arhat, and it took the spotlight a little bit, and he won third place just because of that.
Not only were the top three announced, but 50 winners were also selected. Not only were there bonuses, but also some small gifts were given. Of course, for many jade carvers, the most surprising gift was a contract, which could provide a gift to the gods.
Guarantee contract for the effectiveness of Hong Group.
The jade carvers were prepared early in the morning, and after some warm hospitality, they were naturally delivered to the interested jade carvers. Nowadays, the jade and jade industry is in a period of depression, and the jade carvers are also having a hard time.
What I worry about is that there is no material to carve, and even if I carve, I will not get proper compensation.
After all, jade carvers rely on craftsmanship, and there are very few who can truly be their own bosses. This group of people are not like the bosses of the antique and jade business, who do not open for three years and only open for three years. They are called three days of non-carving.
If your hands are sore, your skills will be half lost if you don’t carve in three months. The most important thing is to provide the jade carvers with sufficient materials. No matter how clever the daughter-in-law is, she is afraid of having nothing to do. As long as there is jade to carve, these people really don’t mind getting less salary.
But the salary offered by Tianhong Group was much higher than before, so everyone was happy.
After the competition was successfully concluded, a seaside barbecue party was held at the Paradise Resort. The food prepared was quite sumptuous. Several bonfires were lit on the seaside. The best barbecue chefs from the Wrangler family were invited to help. In addition to seafood and fish, there were also grilled meats.
As long as you have a stomach to eat regional delicacies such as whole sheep and a full esophagus with enough wine, this kind of wine party will become more casual and there will be no restraint between everyone.
Regardless of whether they have signed a contract or not, all jade carvers treat each other equally. They are like old friends who have not seen each other for many years. They talk about various techniques and taste the delicious roasted food. In addition to recruiting a large number of outstanding jade carvers, this jade carving competition
The master also announced something. Xue Hongyun, a master of jade carving for a generation, has sealed his sword and retired. He can let the media and the jade carving masters from the circle spread the news. It can also be called a low-key retirement and peace of mind.
After Mr. Xue announced his closure, his final work, Golden Buddha Stepping on the Clouds, was given to his close disciple Xu Qing. What convinced the jade carvers was that this close disciple was the young champion, and he was also a member of the Tianhong Group.
Shaodong, most people saw him carving the dragon and phoenix blood-drinking cups with their own eyes. There was absolutely no fraud or unfairness involved. Working for such a large company is indeed a very promising and wise choice.
Mr. Xue was not used to the noisy atmosphere, so he asked Xu Qing and Xue Qiong to accompany him for a walk on the beach. Although he had made plans a long time ago, the old man could not help but burst into tears when he announced that he would retire and retire. For most of his life,
After dealing with jade and jade, I gave up for a while. The melancholy and loss in my heart were naturally self-evident. I just took a walk on the beach to relax.
Xu Qing supported the teacher and walked slowly forward, getting further and further away from the noisy crowd. The weather at the seaside was a bit cold, so he deliberately turned to the side near the sea and walked sideways, so as to help the teacher block some of the wind.
Mr. Xue noticed his intention and said with a kind smile: "No need to block it, sometimes it's good to have some wind." As he spoke, he took out the soapstone wine glass from his pocket and rubbed it gently with his palm a few times.
He said loudly: "Actually, this object belongs to you, but it's not yours, right!"
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, then understood and nodded: "You are right, I thought about this object casually, but when I carved the dragon and phoenix on the cup, it was all based on one idea, and it was done unconsciously."
Mr. Xue smiled and said: "If you can remember that feeling, your achievements in less than three years should be higher than mine. It's a pity that you didn't remember. That's fine. It's certainly gratifying and valuable to be able to carve objects into something with a flash of inspiration."
, but only by being down-to-earth can you seize what belongs to you. If you accumulate enough, it will be yours, do you understand what I mean?"
Xu Qing nodded and said: "I understand, you are saying that this object should not be carved by my current level. To put it bluntly, it is like winning the lottery. If you win the lottery once in your life, you will have bad luck. Every day
If you think about winning again, you will end up in vain."
"Hahaha!" Mr. Xue raised his head and burst into laughter. His originally depressed mood was wiped away by this boy's common metaphor. His laughter stopped. He patted his good disciple on the shoulder and said, "That's all you need.
The most lovable person, his words are rough but not rough, it’s good to know.”
Xu Qing glanced at the soapstone wine glass and said, "I might as well give this to you. I happened to forget it. Speaking of which, you did me a favor. It can be regarded as a souvenir for you!" I heard Mr. Xue just now.
His words made him figure out a truth. Just accept luck when it comes. It's useless if you don't force it. Maybe he will get more if he gives the cup to the teacher.
Mr. Xue shook the cup in his hand and said in a low voice: "Well, there are not many things that can attract the attention of the three of us. This wine glass is one of a kind. I can't refuse this gift.
…”
Before she finished speaking, Xue Qiong, who was standing on the other side, let out a futile exclamation. She pointed at the sea opposite and shouted: "Look, there seems to be a person on the sea over there."
After hearing this, the old man and the young man hurriedly looked in the direction of her fingertips, and saw a group of yellow objects floating on the dark sea. It seemed to be a person wearing loose clothes, but I didn't know it.
Why doesn't that thing float away with the flowing sea water?
