After chatting with the senior brothers and sisters for a long time, I invited them to have a meal in the cafeteria before giving up.
In the end, the decoration was carried out according to Zhang Junping's original design drawings.
We are not fools. Although we are a bit of a fool, we are not hopeless yet.
It was just that we had just received such a decoration task, so everyone was a little excited and couldn't suppress their creative desire.
Zhang Junping allowed them to make trouble for a week. After his secondary creative desire was almost vented, he summoned them to clarify their interests. With this money, no matter how hard you work, there will be no extra money for you.
It is no longer difficult to choose.
Even if there are one or two people who are still unwilling to give up their desire for expression, they will be suppressed by other senior brothers and sisters without Zhang Junping opening his mouth.
Just like Zhang Junping said, work hard, make money hard, use the money you earn to buy creative materials, and engage in your own creations, isn't it good for him?
The next day, Yang Mingde asked someone to notify Zhang Junping that the plaque was ready and asked him to pick it up.
Naturally, Yang Mingde also has his own studio, and there are more than one. In addition to a large studio to educate students, there is also a wood art studio.
"Take the things wherever they are!" Yang Mingde pointed at the plaque placed in the corner.
The plaque is made of Hainan huanghuali. The golden background is dotted with purple tiger skin patterns, which looks particularly beautiful and pleasing to the eye. It exudes nobility and luxury.
The bright plaque is engraved with five big black characters, Central American Dream Factory. Each stroke is vigorous and powerful, with iron hooks and silver strokes, truly penetrating into the wood. Each character is like a mountain, thick, tall, and majestic.
Yang Mingde not only made a pair of plaques, but also hung couplets on both sides of the gate. The material was also made of Hainan huanghuali, but the couplets were landscape patterns, which were equally magnificent.
"Thank you, Master!" Zhang Junping was very satisfied and bowed to his master to express his gratitude. "The material used for the plaque made by Master is really ingenious, with a noble and gorgeous tiger skin pattern. My apprentice's furniture business will definitely be even better!"
"Okay, stop flattering me, the materials are all your own!" Yang Mingde laughed.
“That’s how the master’s skillful hands can fully display the beauty of wood texture!
Alas!" After saying that, Zhang Junping sighed.
"Why are you sighing? Why are you dissatisfied with the plaque I made?"
"Master, it's because the plaque you made is so good that I sigh!
I’m reluctant to hang up such a beautiful and gorgeous plaque, but what if someone steals it?” Zhang Junping said with a worried look on his face.
"You brat, are you addicted to flattery? Keep filming, don't stop!" Yang Mingde patted Zhang Junping on the head and scolded with a smile.
"Master, I'm serious! If you don't mention the material, just your name on it, I don't know how many people will care about it!" Zhang Junping touched his head and said with a smile.
Yang Mingde smiled and nodded, indicating for him to continue.
Zhang Junping was speechless. His words were partly flattering and partly out of genuine concern.
If this plaque is hung up, it will definitely be the most beautiful in the entire Wangfujing street, and it will also be the easiest to attract people's attention.
After returning the plaque to the furniture store, it can be put on the agenda to put the business up for business.
First, I asked Director Gao of the Logistics Department to find out about the business license.
It is expected that the business license will be obtained next week.
Zhang Junping simply set the official opening date for November 1st, which is two weeks later.
With a buffer time of two weeks, the furniture produced can basically fill the front of the furniture store before it opens.
When the business officially opens, naturally it cannot be as casual as before.
No matter what, I have to invite a few friends over to support me, set off some whips, and distribute a leaflet.
Thinking about it, in Beijing, apart from his roommates and classmates, Zhang Junping also knew Ma Weidu, Wang Shuo and others.
I made a lot of phone calls and informed them that they would come to attend the opening ceremony of their furniture store on November 1st.
Ever since his wife arrived, Liu Zhengwen has been particularly concerned about the furniture store and would run to the furniture store whenever he had nothing to do.
Especially after I found out that the furniture store was affiliated with the school, I became even more interested and went to the furniture store even more frequently. I did everything from polishing furniture to painting, and it was all voluntary labor.
Knowing that Zhang Junping wanted to print leaflets, Liu Zhengwen rushed to take over the task.
It just so happened that Zhang Junping had to instruct his eldest brother-in-law and others to process and make furniture parts, make mortise and tenon structural models, and instruct Huang Xue and others to decorate the house, so he was a little busy.
There are many things that need to be prepared for the official opening, and Zhang Junping himself is too busy to do it.
Liu Zhengwen was so proactive that Zhang Junping simply gave him the task of contacting the printing factory to print the leaflets.
After another two days of busy work, Zhang Junping finally completed all 148 mortise and tenon structural models.
Zhang Junping specially set aside a house and made a workbench with his own hands to place these mortise and tenon structure models. Next to each model is a playing card with the name, production process and application of the mortise and tenon structure written on it.
parts, and deformation applications.
There were only thirty three types of mortise and tenon structures at the beginning. Later, with the development of technology, craftsmen optimized and reformed the mortise and tenon process, and many deformation applications of mortise and tenon appeared, so there were seventy-two mortise and tenon joints.
In fact, seventy-two mortise and tenon joints does not mean that there are only seventy-two types of mortise and tenon joints, but a counting habit of the Chinese people, like twelve, thirty-three, thirty-six, forty-nine, sixty-four, seven
Twelve, eighty-one, one hundred and eight, etc. are all imaginary numbers, which are influenced by Taoist thought. These numbers are considered auspicious.
Just finished working on the mortise and tenon model, before Zhang Junping could take a breath, Liu Zhengwen, who had disappeared for two days, came back.
"how's it going?"
"Don't mention it. I've been to seven or eight printing factories in the past few days. They either refused to print because they thought the price was too low, or the price was too high!" Liu Zhengwen sighed dejectedly and said: "The main reason is that we rushed at the wrong time, and now everyone
A printing factory either has tasks assigned by superiors, or is busy printing wall calendars and desk calendars!"
"Starting printing wall calendars and desk calendars so early?"
"That's what I said. The printing house said that it's not too early to print now. It's already the end of October, and it will be November soon. In two months, it will be the Gregorian year!" Liu Zhengwen said from the printing house.
The information obtained was conveyed to Zhang Junping.
"If you don't want to print it, don't print it! I'll ask my classmates for help and hand-draw some flyers. I'll take them to Aunt Wang, and Aunt Lin and the others will help with the promotion as well!
By the way, you just said that printing plants are printing wall calendars and desk calendars?"
"yes!"
"What do you think about us printing a batch of wall calendars?" Zhang Junping said out of the blue.
"Shall we print a wall calendar? Why print that thing?"
"Old Liu, I'll pay for it and let's do a big business and print ten or twenty thousand wall calendars. Are you interested in doing it?"
