Chapter 16: Get Started
"Haha, teacher, you have such a good sense of humor. Xiao Zhang said with an embarrassed but polite smile.
"Oh, yes, am I humorous?" asked Tang Qingchuan.
Xiao Zhang didn't continue to speak, his teacher was really not a humorous person.
"Teacher, please rest assured, disciples can try it. Xiao Zhang is very confident in himself.
Tang Qingchuan nodded and said, "Then let's go, we're chatting after we finish the tests we want to do." ”
Xiao Zhang had no choice but to follow Tang Qingchuan.
For more than half an hour, Tang Qingchuan took Xiao Zhang to his exclusive studio.
"This is where I work on weekdays, of course, in terms of porcelain carving, let's try it?" Tang Qingchuan stretched out his hand and took down a work uniform hanging on the wall.
Tang Qingchuan is a person who does what he says, Xiao Zhang also nodded, looking at this somewhat chaotic studio, a feeling of eagerness to try arises spontaneously.
As soon as the memory in my mind adjusts slightly, the basic steps of making Ru porcelain are already presented.
It's very simple.
"The material is ready-made, the first test is the feel, my requirements are not high, just this tea cup. Tang Qingchuan stretched out his hand and took a teacup drinking tea on the table in his hand.
Xiao Zhang took the teacup and looked at it, it was very simple, the size of the teacup could be seen with the naked eye.
The height is about 4 cm, the diameter is about 5.5 cm, and the foot diameter is about 3 cm.
"Teacher, can you just follow this exactly?"
Tang Qingchuan nodded.
"Well, I'm going to get started. Xiao Zhang smiled.
Gently close your eyes, and the memories in your mind are revealed.
The entry-level Ru porcelain making skills are not covered, Tang Qingchuan has a ready-made mud ball here, and he can directly enter the second step.
It is hand-drawn, carved, pinched and topped.
This is the step that the teacher allows himself to demonstrate.
How to shape the mud.
It's also called trying your own feel.
According to Xiao Zhang's understanding, is the clay man pinched......
Playing at home, I used to do it when I was a child, and the clay figures were all great, let alone making a small teacup.
Xiao Zhang sat directly in front of the workbench, and the tools in front of him had been seen on TV many times even if he had not used them.
There is a disc in the middle that can rotate the special roller car for drawing blanks, and through the hand-pulling and squeezing of the maker, the mud mass gradually forms a rounded body of the vessel.
Xiao Zhang began to slowly turn the machine.
When you put your hand on the mud, you feel that the mud will become more and more smooth in your hands, and then you can form it with more force......
Xiao Zhang's hand was raised...... The mud flung off......
A large chunk of mud flew straight out and smashed onto the workbench on the other side.
Xiao Zhang was stunned, something was wrong, this was different from what he imagined.
Xiao Zhang hurriedly stopped the rotation of the wheel, and apologized to Tang Qingchuan very embarrassed but politely.
Then clean up the flipped mud.
"Mistakes, mistakes, teacher, I was a little nervous for the first time, and I didn't grasp the strength well. ”
Xiao Zhang hurriedly explained, and then began to turn the wheel again.
Xiao Zhang pursed his lips and started again......
This time the mud flew again......
A large piece smashed directly on Tang Qingchuan's work clothes.
It's like a big piece of cow on it......
Xiao Zhang was stunned.
That's not the case in my mind.
And it doesn't feel right at all.
"Teacher, I'm ......"
Xiao Zhang didn't know what to say.
"It's okay, it turns out that your hand feels like the typical dry and shredded hands. Tang Qingchuan said expressionlessly.
Secretly, is this product really right?
"But I don't understand ...... teacher"
"Xiao Zhang, let me ask you, how do you think this blank should be controlled?"
Returning to the teacher's words, throw the mud ball at the center of the turntable of the wheel, and pull the general shape of the body with the flexion and extension of the hand. Xiao Zhang said awkwardly.
"That's right, that's not wrong at all, drawing blank is one of the seventy-two processes of making Ru porcelain, but a very important step, which will determine the bone and soul of the Ru porcelain to be made. Tang Qingchuan said lightly.
Xiao Zhang rubbed his hands and said, "Teacher, I'll try again." ”
Picking up a piece of mud again, Xiao Zhang carefully threw it on the central disc of the wheel, and as the wheeler rotated, Xiao Zhang became a little nervous.
Just now, it may be that the strength of his hand on it was not enough, and the force around him was uneven, which made the mud ball throw out.
This time push a little harder.
Xiao Zhang secretly made up his mind and pressed down with both hands.
Well, this time the mud ball was not thrown out, but was directly pinched and deformed by Xiao Zhang's fingers, and the round and delicate mud ball turned into a large thin mud as if the carriage had pressed it......
"Xiao Zhang, there is a sentence for the teacher that I don't know whether to say or not. Tang Qingchuan coughed lightly.
"Teacher, please speak. Xiao Zhang said helplessly.
"Is it too late for me to retract what I said before about taking you as an apprentice?" Tang Qingchuan said with a strange face.
"Don't, teacher, I'll try again......" Xiao Zhang hurriedly said.
"No need, I see that your kid is a typical soldier on paper, alas, it's okay, Xiao Zhang, the stupid teacher has also seen a lot, everything must be talented, this is not to blame you, after all, not who can do it well. Tang Qingchuan comforted.
Of course, there is another sentence, Tang Qingchuan is embarrassed to say it.
It's too rare to think that you are nothing like this......
Xiao Zhang was powerless to refute, he had become a stupid person so quickly?
"It's okay, you're like this, you don't want me to go anywhere today, the same is true tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, you just practice here slowly, the teacher has a lot of mud here, when you can pull the blank successfully, when to take the next step, it doesn't matter if you have no talent, the hard work of the day after tomorrow is equally important, the teacher believes in you." Tang Qingchuan patted Xiao Zhang's shoulder, took off his work clothes and walked out.
Yes, this is a disappointment to the teacher.
Looking at Tang Qingchuan and walking outside the door, Xiao Zhang also sighed.
It's unreasonable, it shouldn't.
That's not right at all.
I obviously unlocked the entry-level production process of Ru porcelain in my mind, why is it nothing now that I get started?
All these steps are in his mind, Xiao Zhang can say it with a mouth, how can it become a piece of paper?
Xiao Zhang lowered his head and shot at the mud ball on the wheeled car again......
……
Five seconds later, the mud seemed to explode......
Xiao Zhang spat out a piece of mud that had been thrown into his mouth and was stunned.
What the hell is going on?
"Craftsman, you are coming out soon, something is wrong. Xiao Zhang called the system.
"Host, I'm here. The system responded.
"Craftsman, there's a bug in your system. Xiao Zhang said.
"It is unlikely that there will be any bugs in this system. "The system refuses to take the blame.
"Impossible, when I received the reward yesterday, didn't you say that it would be temporarily blocked, and you could only use it when you completed the novice task?" but last night, this entry-level Ru porcelain making process had already appeared in my mind, and this is not a bug?" Xiao Zhang pointed out.
