Chapter 114: It's better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books
Of course, in the modern Ru porcelain process, the largest amount of firing is the azure glaze, the success rate of the azure glaze is low, and the audience of other glaze colors is relatively small, so the azure glaze must be eternal and occupy the dominant position.
Of course, this is also the main reason why it has been handed down since ancient times.
Ru porcelain became famous because of the azure glaze, that touch of azure color, the beauty to the extreme.
It is also accepted by more people.
As for the pink glaze, different people naturally have different opinions, Ouyang Xiu thinks that the pink green is more beautiful, because he is a poet and a real literary fan, but after all, it is a minority.
After all, a slightly pink piece of porcelain does not meet the aesthetic standards of the public.
But it is really undeniable that the beauty of this pink and blue glaze.
Xiao Zhang carefully tasted all the firing process skills of the pink glaze in his mind, and slowly digested it.
Now Xiao Zhang's mind suddenly poured into a large amount of knowledge about Ru porcelain, but his experience and state of mind did not keep up.
It's easy to lose control of your craft skills.
This made Xiao Zhang frown a little.
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Zhang decided to pick up the phone and dial his teacher Tang Qingchuan.
It's better to ask the teacher if you encounter this kind of problem.
"What's wrong with Xiao Zhang?" Tang Qingchuan's voice quickly came from the phone.
"Teacher, I'm in trouble. Xiao Zhang said straight to the point.
"Oh? Tang Qingchuan's voice became serious.
Xiao Zhang thought for a while and said: "Teacher, I have made up for the relevant knowledge of Ru porcelain in the past few days, and the more I know, the more I find that I understand less, I don't know if you understand what I mean." Xiao Zhang's voice seemed a little hurried.
"Well, you go on. Tang Qingchuan continued.
Xiao Zhang sighed and said: "Teacher, I now finally understand what is the difference between the Ru porcelain I fired before, maybe as you said, this color is rare in the world, but there are some gaps in other aspects after all, and I can now find out where the gap is in what you said." ”
"Well, that's a good thing, it shows that you're improving. Tang Qingchuan nodded.
"But teacher, although the porcelain I fired before was not the most perfect, I dared to start making it, but now I am confident that I can make perfect porcelain, I believe that the knowledge I have now can definitely make up for all the shortcomings before, but I dare not start now, I seem to have some fear in my heart, I don't seem to be worthy of everything I know. Xiao Zhang said it more bluntly.
Tang Qingchuan paused for three seconds, sighed and said: "Xiao Zhang, I actually understand your problem, in fact, this is a problem that many craftsmen have encountered, but others may only encounter it after ten years, twenty years, or even thirty years in the industry, and you have this problem now." ”
"Teacher......" Xiao Zhang was puzzled.
Perhaps this is more appropriately described as a bottleneck. Tang Qingchuan said lightly.
Tang Qingchuan looked at his watch and said, "In this way, you come to my house, let's meet." ”
……
Xiao Zhang hung up the phone and sighed.
Xiao Zhang really has this feeling, which he just discovered.
In my mind, I tasted the grandmaster-level azure glaze process firing skills and the master-level powder green glaze process firing skills.
Then Xiao Zhang found that the knowledge he had clearly existed in his mind, but Xiao Zhang didn't dare to operate it himself.
It can't be said that I don't dare, but I don't have the confidence I had before, and I can control it perfectly.
Maybe it's because it's been too smooth.
Now Xiao Zhang can't break through himself a little.
Obviously, the system has upgraded his firing process, but he clearly feels that he can't fire the matching Ru porcelain at all.
Even if Xiao Zhang is now using the grandmaster-level azure glaze firing process to fire Ru porcelain, it is unknown whether the success of the firing can catch up with the previous Ru porcelain......
Xiao Zhang was dressed neatly and decided to listen to the teacher's opinion as the teacher said.
When he went out, Xiao Zhang was still accustomed to subways and buses.
It took almost an hour to arrive at Tang Qingchuan's home.
Tang Qingchuan's home, Xiao Zhang had been here before.
In the second year of his apprenticeship, Xiao Zhang helped Tang Qingchuan move things, so he could find it.
Tang Qingchuan, as a bigwig in the circle who is not lower than Su Daqiang, is much more low-key.
Maybe it's because there is only one person in the family, but he lives in a normal community, and he doesn't have his own courtyard like the Su family, and he covers a particularly large area.
Of course, it doesn't mean that Tang Qingchuan doesn't have the financial resources and strength, but he is simply low-key......
A normal two-bedroom and two-hall house in the Third Ring Road, about 100 square meters, with an old Chinese decoration at home.
Xiao Zhang entered the living room with ease.
Tang Qingchuan drank tea lightly and poured a cup for Xiao Zhang and said, "Drink some tea and calm your heart." ”
Xiao Zhang nodded, the teacher's tea had been drunk by himself.
Perennial rock tea.
The taste is very strong, and it is the only tea that Xiao Zhang is not used to drinking.
But for now, Xiao Zhang continued to calm down.
"Xiao Zhang, let me tell you, this craftsman, all of them are devoted to the craftsman's career, whether it is firing Ru kiln or brother kiln, whether it is firing blue and white or firing pastel, it is a gradual process, more and more growth, better and better, more and more excellent, with the slow growth of time and experience, the experience is also slowly growing, seeing more, understanding more, and knowing more. Tang Qingchuan put down the teapot and said slowly.
Only with the increase of experience, see more things, the growth of the state of mind, and have an ingenuity, can be regarded as a real craftsman, through this ingenuity, in order to better grasp the porcelain in their hands. Tang Qingchuan said slowly.
Xiao Zhang nodded.
"Most of these craftsmen are on the road of continuous growth and learning all the way to the old man has ingenuity, only to practice the craft to the extreme, because there is no ingenuity, there is no heart, many times porcelain is not seen with the eyes, it is perceived with the heart, many times the porcelain is the feeling in the heart, you don't have this feeling, what's the use of you wanting so many knowledge points?" Tang Qingchuan's words completely woke up Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhanghang realized.
Tang Qingchuan smiled slightly: "You are a genius in this industry, sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing to progress too fast, Xiao Zhang, the old saying is very useful, it is better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles, and it is better to read countless people than to travel thousands of miles." ”
