Chapter 245 Nine Dragons Glazed Wall

"That... Xiao Lu!"

At this time, sitting Master Liu Yu from Yangzhou next to Lu Li turned his head to look at Lu Li and reminded Lu Li, "Little Lu, please change to a more secure material! This material is more difficult to carve."

Is it difficult to engrave?

Lu Li was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the jade stone picture on the tablet, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Is this too difficult? Compared with the cracked Tian Huangshi I carved, this transparent jadeite material is not too difficult to carve!

"This jade stone...is it very difficult to carve?"

Lu Li lifts the head, looking towards Master Liu Yu with a puzzled face.

"Yes! It's quite difficult."

Master Liu Yu was secretly sighed. In the end, Lu Li is engaged in sculpture, and he has absolutely no experience in jade sculpture. Even if you can't judge the difficulty of jade stone carving, you dare to participate?

"Jade carvings have a certain specificity."

A jade carving master next to him couldn't stand it anymore, and also said, "Xiao Lu, you chose this five-color jadeite with a transparent bottom. , because it is a transparent base, the knife marks on jade carvings are extremely demanding, and it is not easy to deal with."

"Oh...that's right!"

Lu Li finally figured it out. What do they mean by "difficult to carve"?

Because this jade stone has a transparent base, like a piece of transparent glass, on which a knife is carved, every notch must be polished to keep the jade crystal clear and transparent.

It's a bit of a hassle, but...is that just fine grinding once to fix the problem? It's like sharpening a lens, it's not that hard, is it?

"Thank you for your concern."

Lu Li greeted Master Liu Yu and the Master who just answered, nodded with a smile, "This piece of jade is carved It's really troublesome, but it's also a challenge, I want to try it."

Try...?

Hearing Lu Li's words, Liu Yu and all the Masters who paid attention secretly sneered in their hearts.

There is no such thing as trying jade carving, either success or failure.

With your craft, try...and you may die!

"You just know what you have in mind."

Liu Yu nodded lightly, not saying anything.

The king of hell can't save the damned ghost. If you don't listen to persuasion, if you just want to be brave, then it's up to you.

The other Masters just glanced at Lu Li and said nothing.

For the sake of concern for youngsters, I would like to remind you that you are a student of Old Han. If you don't listen, that's your business.

After the selection of materials, the contestants leave.

Next, the units represented by the contestants come to negotiate with the organizers. Either buy the selected jade stone or pay a deposit, and after completing the formalities, the contestants can use the selected jade stone for carving.

After all... these are precious items. This procedure is a precautionary measure made in advance in order to avoid wrangling after damage.

Lu Li went back to the hotel to rest after selecting the materials. Manager Wu came over immediately to go through the relevant procedures.

"Old Wu, I heard that your company wants to enter the jewelry jade stone industry?"

When Manager Wu came to the jade stone exhibition hall and was about to go through the formalities, a businessman from Beijing The business manager of Dr. Zhou's jewelry jade stone shop talked with Manager Wu.

"How do I know the company's decision? I'm just an errand."

Although this news is no longer a secret in the industry, Manager Wu is still tight-lipped.

“hehe!”

The business manager of Dr. Zhou Jewelry was laughed, “Old Wu! The decision of your company is really confusing. I asked Lu Li to give it to you. You make jade carvings? Although he is a famous teacher, but... how old is he? He is still a sculptor. Your company is afraid that you are suddenly ill and go to the doctor?"

"Lu Li's jade carving skills are not as good as You masters are poor."

Manager Wu felt a little resentful at the sarcasm in this man's words.

"You are confident."

The business manager smiled and looked at the head, "I heard that your Lu Li Master chose a transparent piece that is extremely difficult to engrave. I don't know if it's newborn calves do not fear tigers? People, walked into the jade stone exhibition hall.

And then... when Manager Wu saw the transparent bottom, jade-colored and messy jade material that Lu Li had chosen, he was a little confused!

Teacher Lu, how did you choose such a material?

Even if I don't know about jade carving, I can see that this thing... it's really not easy to carve!

However, Manager Wu recalled that Lu Li could handle even Tian Huangshi with internal cracks so perfectly. Choosing this material is considered a boldness of execution stems from superb skill!

Since Teacher Lu is confident, then no problem!

Speaking from a certain perspective, this variegated material with a transparent bottom is actually only suitable for jade carving. Do other jewelry and the like, the color is too mixed.

Manager Wu made up his mind and bought this jade stone directly from the organizer.

These two palm-size, flat variegated jadeite with transparent bottom, if it is not variegated, it is a single color, or even has no color and is completely transparent, then the value of jade stone is at least as high as hundreds of millions.

Now...because the colors are too mixed, even glass jadeite can be worth hundreds of millions.

What are hundreds of millions of materials? Teacher Lu has already cut more than a dozen pieces! Each piece is a handed down work, a rare boutique!

Manager Wu still has confidence in Lu Li!

But... that's not what other people think of Lu Li.

Unconsciously, the news that "Lu Li chose a very difficult material" spread in the competition circle.

Lu Li's evaluation of "newborn calves do not fear tigers" is already the consensus of everyone.

This may sound like nothing, but it's a more euphemism. In fact, it means that Lu Li is a bit "reckless" and is completely nonsense.

Even the judges, the great grandfather, have heard this statement.

"Old Han, you little disc, you chose a piece of variegated material with a transparent bottom."

The judge, Old Master Li, laughed when he called Old Han on the phone. Obviously with a bit of drama, "Are you ready for the money? You, this discipline, you can destroy 100 million with one knife!"

"You are so optimistic about him?"

Old Han smiled and shook the head, "Old Li, don't be too arbitrary! Maybe, my discipline can be unexpected!"

"It's not dark yet, just Dreaming?"

Old Master Li curl one's lip, "Tomorrow is going to be a competition. This year's 'Bian He' Cup Jade Carving Tournament, maybe, this discipline of yours will put your old face all over the place. I've lost everything."

"Wait and see if I'm ashamed or have a face!"

Old Han laughed, "You underestimate him, when the time comes, don't be His face was swollen."

"Then let's see!"

Old Master Li Zi hung up the phone with a smile.

......

"Teacher Lu, I'm back!"

In the hotel, Manager Wu brought two bodyguards, carrying a metal box, and walked away. Entered Lu Li's room.

"This is the jade stone you selected, I bought it."

Putting the metal box on the coffee table in the room, Manager Wu said to Lu Li with a smile: "Tomorrow, I'll wait to see you show off your skills."

"You said this on purpose, because...you don't have confidence in me?"

Lu Li glanced at Manager Wu At a glance, said with a smile: "I really didn't have much confidence before. When I chose this material, I heard that it was very difficult to carve, and I suddenly felt confident."

"oh?"

Manager Wu's eyes lit up, "You mean..."

"Yes! You guessed right!"

Lu Li grinned and stretched out his hand to open the metal box, "They think it's difficult to carve, that's because...their craftsmanship is not good!"

Opening the box, a piece of transparent variegated color was fixed inside the foam. The material is the jadeite selected by Lu Li.

Carrying the box and placing it on the bed, Lu Li took out the two palm-size flat jadeite materials from the box.

Put it on the bed and take it out, of course, for safety, to prevent it from falling and breaking the jade.

Looking at this flat piece of jade, looking at the jade flesh in five colors of red, green, yellow, white and purple, disordered and in a mess, the smile on Lu Li's face is more brilliant.

"The five colors are mixed and intertwined, this is... a dragon! The dragon of resembles nature itself!"

Lu Li pointed at jade stone and said to Manager Wu: "Old Wu, look, red, green, yellow, white, and purple, five colors, nine dragons, this is a natural nine-dragon glass wall!"

"Wow...really!"

Hearing what Lu Li said, Manager Wu saw the intertwined ribbons on the jade stone, which really looked like dragons swimming.

"Teacher Lu, your eyesight is amazing!"

In the tangled mess of five colors, you can see a dragon, this is the artist's vision, change something rotten into something magical.

“It’s not eyesight, it’s intelligence!”

Lu Li laughed. He really didn't see it with his eyesight, but when he modeled it in his mind, he found it with his IQ.

The jade material with transparent bottom has the advantage that there is no cover, the whole jade stone is transparent, and all the internal textures can be seen at a glance.

Compared with other materials, this transparent jadeite is more risky and less risky, with no hidden cracks and scars that cannot be seen.

It is a test of operation when engraving, and there is no room for any mistakes. If the cut is not good, there is no room for the transparent material to cover it.

For Lu Li, none of this is a problem.

Ingenuity makes Lu Li's hands very dexterous, calm makes Lu Li's mind very calm, coupled with "expert-level" carving skills, it can be perfectly controlled, and it is not difficult to carve.

He took this jade stone by himself, looked at it over and over again, measured it up and down with a ruler, and took pictures from all angles, and Lu Li put the jade stone back into the box.

The next step is to shape the composition.

Lu Li sat down at the table, opened the laptop, and used the software to compose the image.

According to the measured data, Lu Li used the computer software to restore the jade stone image based on the photo and build a 3D model.

After the restoration was completed, Lu Li then composes and designs his "Nine Dragon Glass Wall" on the 3D model.

Because this jade stone is originally two palm-size flat shapes, it only needs to be properly trimmed to the outer shape and keep the original flat shape.

It's the nine dragons inside that really take the effort.

On the computer software, the nine giant dragons with different shapes are drawn, and the main body design is preliminarily completed.

Then, design some fragmented ribbons into various shapes such as flowing clouds, sprays, rays of light, flames, smoke clouds, dragon balls, etc.

In the modeling design, various jade carving techniques such as relief, incision, hollow, round carving, openwork, etc. are integrated into one. According to the natural ribbon of jade stone, various modeling patterns are appropriately handled.

After the entire modeling design was completed, a beautiful and beautiful Nine Dragons Glass Wall appeared on the computer screen.

The entire Nine Dragons Glazed Wall has a dense layout, but the law is rigorous. Nine five-color giant dragons of different shapes, with their eyes wide open and their scales flying, look lifelike, as if they are about to fly from the jade bi.

"Wow! It's so beautiful! It's so beautiful!"

When Manager Wu saw the layout plan made by Lu Li, his eyes were about to fall out, "Wow! His skills are amazing! It's just a miracle!"

"No! No!"

Lu Li stared at the composition and frowned tightly. , I always feel that there is something unsatisfactory.

"No? What else is wrong?"

Manager Wu was full of surprise, "Teacher Lu, oh no, Master Lu. Your work is so ingenious, it is definitely rarely seen. The best handed down products, the Great Accomplishment of skills."

Manager Wu expressed that he did not understand Lu Li's dissatisfaction at all. The jade bi is exquisitely carved and the shape is ingenious. You are still not satisfied with such a work of Great Accomplishment?

"I always feel that... there is still a little bit of charm."

Lu Li frowned, slightly shocking the head, "Manager Wu, do you think... this Nine Dragons Glazed Wall, What's missing?"

"What's missing? Not much at all!"

Manager Wu shook his head repeatedly, "Master Lu, your work is already amazing. Every dragon is vivid and lifelike, just like living. Are you still not satisfied with such a perfect jade carving?"

"Just like living?"

Lu Li His eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on his face, "haha! so that's how it is! It's just like live, of course it has to be like live!"

He reached out and picked up the mouse, Lu Li Started to modify the shape and composition again.

For each dragon's eyeball, Lu Li used a hollowing process to carve the dragon's eyeball into a movable one.

After the modification, take a look again, and it is really more vivid.

It's just...not enough.

Lu Li made some modifications on the jade bi and added some holes.

"It's perfect!"

Lu Li put down the mouse and looked at the revised composition, nodded with satisfaction.

"Master Lu, you have hollowed out the dragon's eyeballs and made them movable. I can understand."

Manager Wu pointed to some shapes added by Lu Li on the jade bi. Looking at the different holes, he asked with a puzzled face: "These holes...I can't understand."

"Haha!"

Lu Li laughed, "These holes , not for viewing!"

Not for viewing?

Manager Wu was taken aback for a moment. Jade carvings are originally for viewing! It's not for viewing, so what do you carve it for?

What are these holes for?
