The old lady also has her own channels and knows a little about what Zhang Junping did in Xiangjiang, but not in such detail.
After listening to Zhang Junping's story, the old lady couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Some people are born as dragons. As the saying goes, they turn into dragons when encountering a storm.
Zhang Junping is undoubtedly such a person. As long as he has a chance, he can make money and create opportunities by himself even if he doesn't have a chance.
When Zhang Junping sculpted the car, everyone just thought it was beautiful. Who would have thought that he would actually use the car model to create such a big article.
With the introduction of the car company this time, it can be said that as long as Zhang Junping does not treason, he can go sideways, or at least want to do something, at the national level, he will definitely have a green light.
At nine-thirty in the evening, the old lady went back to her room to rest as usual.
The old lady has a strong sense of time. If there is nothing special, she will go to bed on time at 9:30.
Zhang Junping took the Zigang jade plaque and returned to the east wing as if in a dream.
Regardless of the meaning it represents, this jade plaque is inherited from the Jianmen Tuzitang. The jade plaque itself is priceless. It is not an exaggeration to call it a national treasure.
The reason why Lu Zigang is revered as a master is because Lu Zigang has reached the pinnacle of jade carving skills, which has never been achieved before or since.
Lu Zigang was not only proficient in jade carving, he was equally skilled in bamboo, wood, stone teeth and inlays, but his achievements in jade carving were more outstanding, and the Zigang brand is one of Lu Zigang's masterpieces.
The Zigang brand not only refers to the jade plaque carved by Lu Zigang, but has become a brand.
Just like the luxury brands in Europe and the United States in later generations, Zigang brand was a luxury brand in the jade industry at that time. The Zigang jade workshop founded by Lu Zigang was highly sought after by dignitaries at that time, and they were all proud to own a Zigang style jade.
Looking at the jade tablet in his hand, Zhang Junping was not happy about getting a Zigang tablet that could be called a national treasure. On the contrary, his heart was heavy.
The old lady gave herself this Zigang tablet in the hope that she could pass on the craftsmanship.
Is it so easy to pass on craftsmanship?
Of course, it is not difficult to inherit major categories such as jade carving, porcelain making, wood carving, stone carving, silk weaving, and cooking.
Just like the spirit of craftsmen, let the craftsmen in the world have food to eat.
Because these large categories of crafts are closely related to human beings' basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation, there is never a shortage of work and food to eat, so there is never a shortage of people to pass on.
The old saying that craftsmen will never die of hunger in times of famine actually refers to these broad categories of craftsmen.
How difficult it would be to ensure that every craftsman in the world has a meal to eat.
In later generations, I don’t know how many traditional handicrafts have been lost or are facing the situation of being lost.
The reason is that these crafts have not adapted to the development of the times. With the development of the times, these traditional crafts can no longer support the craftsmen.
"What are you thinking about? You have a pimple on your brow." Huang Xue saw Zhang Junping holding the jade plaque tightly and frowning, and reached out to touch the pimple on Zhang Junping's brow in distress.
"I'm thinking about Jiangmen!" Zhang Junping reached out to hold Huang Xue's hand and said softly.
"Didn't you set up a mutual aid foundation for craftsmen? Just donate more money every year." Huang Xue said casually without thinking much.
"It can't be that simple. There are so many craftsmen in China alone, not just in the whole world. How can we help with the little money we have?"
Another thing is, even if we have enough money to support all the craftsmen, we can't just donate money and let it go.
Those craftsmen are not my parents or my sons, so why should I use money to support them?"
"Well! It's better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish! You definitely can't simply feed them with money, otherwise you won't be raising craftsmen, but a bunch of rice worms." Huang Xue nodded in agreement.
"Teach a man to fish?" Zhang Junping's eyes lit up and he repeated it.
The best way is to teach people how to fish, but Zhang Junping has not figured out how to teach people how to fish.
I just have some vague ideas and I need to think about it carefully.
"Forget it, I don't want to anymore!" Zhang Junping smiled and pecked Huang Xue on the mouth, then turned around and carefully put away the jade plaque.
But treasure, it's a pity that this Zigang tablet is the inheritance tablet of Tuzitang. It would be better if it was from Muzitang, Zhang Junping thought with dissatisfaction.
Although Zhang Junping's identity will become a graduate student in the Department of Sculpture when school starts, what Zhang Junping prefers is still playing with wood.
One of the reasons why I studied sculpture was because the old lady was the head of the sculpture department. As her apprentice, I naturally had to learn it.
Not only must you learn, but you must learn thoroughly and masterly.
On the other hand, it is to draw parallels, increase artistic heritage, and find ways to break through as a wood artist.
"Disgusting!" Huang Xue was attacked by surprise and punched Zhang Junping with a red face.
"Hate it? I hate it even more. Do you want to try it?" Zhang Junping put away the jade token and approached Huang Xue with a playful smile.
Seeing Zhang Junping's smile, Huang Xue's face turned even redder.
"I don't want to! You are a gangster who spends your whole day thinking about dirty things!" Huang Xue rolled her eyes at Zhang Junping and took a step back to avoid Zhang Junping's approaching face.
Although they are already an old couple, Huang Xue can't help but her heartbeat speeds up and her cheeks turn red when she thinks about what happened in bed.
The key is that Zhang Junping has too many tricks, some of which make you blush just thinking about them.
"Hey, Confucius said it, food and sex are the same. This is a major matter of human ethics, and it cannot be more serious." Zhang Junping chuckled, picked up Huang Xue and threw him on the kang.
…
"Wow! Uncle, uncle!"
"Uncle is back!"
As soon as Zhang Junping walked into the door of the furniture factory, the first two nieces who spotted Zhang Junping rushed up and hugged Zhang Junping's thighs, shouting excitedly.
"Have you missed your uncle?"
"think!"
"Think about it!"
"How good! My uncle misses you too and brought you a lot of delicious food!" Zhang Junping bent down and picked up his two nieces.
"My little ancestor, run slowly, oh, the boss is back?" The mother ran out chasing the footsteps of the two nieces, and said in surprise when she saw Zhang Junping.
"Mom, I'm back. Are you still used to staying in Beijing with my dad?" Zhang Junping asked with an apologetic smile at his mother.
His parents and younger siblings have been here for more than ten days, but he has been in Xiangjiang and has not bothered to receive them.
"Get used to it! This big city is so nice and clean!" The mother nodded vigorously with a smile on her face. Then she looked at Huang Xue standing next to Zhang Junping and asked carefully: "This is..."
"Mom, this is Huang Xue, my girlfriend!
Miss Huang, this is my mother!" Zhang Junping hurriedly introduced the two of them.
"Hello, aunt!" Huang Xue called out sweetly with a red face.
"Oh, oh! Okay, okay! Huang Xue, right? This girl is so handsome!
Come on, come on, sit in the room!" The mother was a little flustered, but also a little excited, holding Huang Xue's hand and letting her go into the room.
