Chapter 991: Engraving
Zhang Tianyuan naturally has the confidence to say the above words, in fact, it is very simple to make Gao Qianqian famous, only need to hold a national influential seal carving competition, let Gao Qianqian win the championship, that's fine, of course, you can also let a famous seal carver win the championship, let Gao Qianqian win a runner-up, that effect may be better.
After all, if Gao Qianqian wins the championship directly, there will definitely be many people who say that this is a black box operation, and people are always very skeptical now.
As for what is the way to let those people participate, this is not a problem, the sky-high bonus, coupled with Zhang Tianyuan's connections, to build such an influential seal carving competition in the country, it is simply a very simple thing, but there is a premise, that is, Gao Qianqian must have strength, real strength, and people must be convinced after seeing her works, otherwise she will also be doubted whether she wins the runner-up or the championship.
And if Gao Qianqian didn't have that ability, Zhang Tianyuan wouldn't have held such a competition for her, today is to see Gao Qianqian's ability.
Gao Qianqian listened to Zhang Tianyuan's words, she was very excited, she took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and then took out a carving knife from the suitcase, and began to carve on the stone, yes, it was done directly, and the design and layout had not been carried out before.
Generally speaking, whether the current carving master understands the computer or not, it is necessary to use the computer to design it first, of course, he does not understand that he can let others help, and then carve, Gao Qianqian will be able to computer. But she didn't use it, because in her head. A complete picture has been formed, which may be confident.
"Old than the shopkeeper. It's okay for Sissi to engrave it directly, right? I've heard that there are still a lot of particularities in this engraving. Zhang Tianyuan didn't bother Gao Qianqian, but asked the shopkeeper Lao Yu on the side, after all, the shopkeeper is a senior in the bloodstone, and he will probably know more about this.
In general, there are two ways to write on stone: imitation and rubbing.
Imitation is the writing of the words to be engraved on a thin piece of paper and then looking at the paper in reverse. Imitate this character on the stone, and modify and bold it, if we only engrave one character, a thicker line can give people a feeling of fullness. More aesthetically pleasing.
Rubbing is to first stamp a mark on the white paper, and then neatly write the words to be engraved within the scope of this print. Pay attention to the appropriate size of the words. Then cover the carbon paper on the stone, cover the white paper on the carbon paper, align the printing on the paper with the four sides of the printing stone, and overprint the words on the stone. Remember, either way, you need to modify the words on the stone until you are satisfied.
Either way, however, before hand-engraving. It is necessary to do some preparatory work, and this generation point will definitely not be wrong, this is also a common step, but when it comes to Gao Qianqian. It seems that these processes have been completely omitted all of a sudden, which has to make Zhang Tianyuan a little puzzled.
"Don't worry, Brother Zhang. Whether it is engraved with a name and font number seal, a seal of the house, a book slip print, or the most colorful collection appreciation seal. I've done it all, and I know it by heart. It's like painting, some people need to compose the picture first, and then fill it in, and some people paint it in one go, you see, okay, this is the beginning, I have to rest this stubborn stone first, otherwise it will be too ugly......"
The old shopkeeper didn't have time to answer Zhang Tianyuan's question, but Gao Qianqian turned her head and smiled, at this time, she actually made Zhang Tianyuan look a little surprised, in the past, there was only disdain and cynicism in this girl's eyes, as if the whole world owed her, as if her life was so sad, but at this time, he saw excitement and joy in this girl's eyes, and saw the best look in this world.
This is the look that a little girl should have, I didn't expect this carving to make a person change so much, which made Zhang Tianyuan feel a little surprised.
However, what Gao Qianqian said, he still had some doubts, this seal is divided from the literal meaning, mainly there is a name and font number seal: the seal engraves the person's name, the table word or number. The name of the Han people has more than one word, and its three characters are sealed, and those who do not have the word "print" are printed. Since the Tang and Song dynasties, the word seal has been based on the word Zhu Wen, and there are also those who add the word "clan" under the surname. Modern people also engrave pen names, which also belong to this category.
Zhaiguan seal: The ancients often named their living rooms and studies, and often made seals from them. Tang Liqin has a seal of "Duanju Room", which is about the earliest of this kind of seal.
Book printing: Those who add "notice", "white matter", and "speech" after the name of the printed text. Today, there are those who "bow again", "respectfully seal", and "pause". This type of printing is used exclusively for the exchange of books.
Collection appreciation seal: This kind of seal is mostly used for the use of calligraphy and painting cultural relics. It flourished in the Tang Dynasty and was better than the Song Dynasty.
Tang Taizong has "Zhenguan", Xuanzong has "Kaiyuan", and Song Huizong has "Xuanhe", all of which are used in the imperial collection of calligraphy and painting. Collectible Indoga adds the words "collection", "treasure", "collection", "collection", etc. In the appreciation category, words such as "appreciation", "cherishing", "clear appreciation", "heart appreciation", "passing eyes", "eye blessing" and so on are added. The words "revision", "examination", "approval", "appraisal", "retort" and so on are added to the revision category.
With such a complex seal, with Gao Qianqian only being a teenager, could he really have such a profound foundation?
However, Gao Qianqian had already ignored him at this time, and was carefully playing with the stone, as if she wanted to use her eyes to collect all the information about the stone into her brain, and then carve it.
She frowned sometimes and smiled at times, looking very serious, and Zhang Tianyuan and Lao Yu were not willing to disturb her, so they let her work there.
This time is long, in fact, it is not very long, that is, just a few tens of seconds, and then Gao Qianqian took out a carving knife and began to carve on the stone, he did not directly engrave or engrave the picture, but used a rougher, but sharper carving knife to make this very irregular bloodstone regular, this trimming process, directly made Zhang Tianyuan stunned.
It didn't look like a girl. What kind of power is on that obviously thin wrist? So that she could carve it on the bloodstone, Zhang Tianyuan was even a little skeptical. Did Gao Qianqian get some adventures like him, and then have magical powers?
At this time, there are gradually more people in the antique shop, but it is still relatively quiet, after all, this is an antique shop, not a clothing store, and everyone's voice is relatively small, but even so, noise is still inevitable. There were even some people who saw that the seal was being carved here, and they actually came over to admire it, and when they saw that it was a little girl busy there, they were even more interested.
There are many people who don't feel nervous when they are alone, but when there are many people, they start to tremble in their hearts, and they won't be able to do things, Zhang Tianyuan used to have this kind of problem. But then I gradually exercised it, and it was fine.
Gao Qianqian was completely unaffected, she seemed to have been immersed in that small stone, and she didn't know anything about the outside world and didn't care at all. It's like she's the only one in the world.
This concentration also made Zhang Tianyuan praise, to be honest. He also carved himself, although he did not engrave a seal. But there are some experiencers, but he is different. After all, he has a powerful cheat, and when he can't concentrate, he can also use the earth qi to concentrate himself, but Gao Qianqian doesn't have these, she is just an ordinary girl, but at this time, she completely shows her master-level concentration.
Many people on the sidelines have actually seen the carving, when Zhang Tianyuan was a child, most of the carvings were manual, but the carving of a girl like this is very fresh, coupled with Gao Qianqian's flowing movements, beautiful skills, but also deeply attracted these people.
Those white and beautiful little hands felt like they were dancing, beating on the little bloodstone.
A small carving knife, in Gao Qianqian's hands, seems to have life, fully understand Gao Qianqian's intentions, let it go to the left, it will never go to the right, let it go to the right, it will never go to the left, this is really like a cow like a cow with ease.
Zhang Tianyuan has never seen Tang Bohu paint, nor has he seen Wang Xizhi write, but it is estimated that Gao Qianqian's attainments in carving seals, even if there is a gap with them, it is not far away. Anyway, in Zhang Tianyuan's opinion, this Gao Qianqian's skillful hands are worth a thousand gold, her movements are fast, but they are fast and orderly, not chaotic at all, what to do, what not to do, there will definitely be nothing wrong, unlike some people who make mistakes when they are excited, and directly break things that may have been easy.
A knife in the east and a knife in the west, it seems to be an unrelated knife technique, but in the end, it can make a very beautiful pattern appear on the small bloodstone, which is amazing to see.
"It's magic!" Some of the onlookers let out a sound of surprise, but they realized that they should not speak at this time, and hurriedly covered their mouths.
In fact, he didn't have to be so nervous at all, with Gao Qianqian's concentration, his words couldn't affect Gao Qianqian's movements at all, and couldn't even make Gao Qianqian have the slightest fluctuation, and she didn't even blink her eyebrows.
Gao Qianqian's face showed a stern expression, but her eyes were full of excitement, and it could be seen that once she entered this state, she seemed to have become a completely different person, which couldn't help but make Zhang Tianyuan think of the dual personality in many TV series, maybe Gao Qianqian is also such a person, the image she usually looks out of, but she doesn't want to be victimized, so she often rejects people thousands of miles away, and now this Gao Qianqian, I'm afraid that it is the real Gao Qianqian.
In Zhang Tianyuan's opinion, the reason why Gao Qianqian didn't need to make drafts or preparations was because she already had a very clear draft in her mind, and now it was enough to release these things with a guò carving knife.
Most of the people who come to the antique shop are insiders, these people know seals, and they can also see Gao Qianqian's excellent skills, so they can't help but be amazed, and some other laymen, see it is even more lively, they directly take this as magic to see, as if many people don't know how to cook, but when watching "The Little Master of China" and "The Spirit of the Halberd", they feel very enjoyable is a meaning.
Because the bloodstone is relatively small, the difficulty of carving is relatively high, but under Gao Qianqian's efforts, after about half an hour, the pattern on the bloodstone has gradually formed, at this time, Zhang Tianyuan can't help but nod, although he has long seen what this pattern is, but after it is completed at this time, it is even more different.
