Chapter 197: Transforming Jewelry Design
The fifth uncle looked at Ouyang Yao's excited appearance, secretly happy in his heart, and struck while the iron was hot.
"How can Nanhong be considered "Jinhong"? In fact, it's like the word "mutton fat" in Hetian jade. It can't be used as a fixed standard to mark what kind of "white" is considered mutton fat jade. Because of mutton fat, one sheep fat. It is a multi-meaning concept. β
"'Sheep' represents whiteness." "Lipid" stands for oil moistening dΓΉ. Jinhong is the same, but the meaning is lost. "Nishiki" represents the gelatinous texture of silk and satin. "Red" is the redness. Therefore, "Jinhong" is also a multi-meaning concept, and cannot be regarded as a fixed standard. β
"The first is purity, no matter what kind of red, purity is the first criterion. Warring States red has been stored for many years before the appearance of southern Sichuan red, but it has not been accepted by most people, because of its mixed colors, mostly red and yellow stirred flowers, there is no certain pure color surface for the carving master to show his skills, and there is no carving process to set off it can only be mixed with beads, accessories, necklaces, etc. β
"When the purity meets the requirements, followed by the redness, many people ask me how red is "brocade red". All I can say is, try to be red! The main southern red color is nothing more than persimmon red and rose red. What water red, ice red, cherry red, those are cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. β
Fifth Uncle Yan said: "Persimmon red is because there are more yellow components in red, and rose red is because there are more purple components in red, and the two colors are as few as possible, which is brocade red." Now that the color is determined, is it better to be transparent or not transparent? Then we have to talk about the nature of Nanhong material. β
"When it comes to materiality, we have to start with one word, and that is "full of meat". As far as I understand, if the light transmission is moderate, it is full of meat. The greater the transmittance, the more light inside the object, the clearer the surface, and the harder the surface texture. Sharp gloss. For the grasp of this texture, you can refer to jadeite. β
The fifth uncle took out a few finished products to compare and explained to Ouyang: "The smaller the transparency, the less light inside the object, the relatively turbid state, and the surface texture is soft. Glossiness is blurred. For the concept of full meat, you can choose a balance point according to your own needs for texture. β
If you look at the state of this "meat" as an axis. Anyway, the extreme left is the ice drifting through the freezing, and the extreme right is called Usbishi. Any of these values have their value. Personally, I'm more right-leaning and belong to ****. I like to be low. Soft meat. β
After listening to the introduction of the fifth uncle, Ouyang has a new understanding of Nanhong, she has talent, and she has a background in jewelry design, and she feels it after listening to it, and even the fifth uncle praises her for her spirituality.
"The shapes are crooked, the themes are whimsical, the colors are varied, and the material is loose and stiff, so there is no problem at all. But! One condition must be met. That's Shen Yun! There is no good or bad for this, according to each person's cultural literacy and aesthetic orientation, it is different. β
"A good carving work, its innate own material and the acquired carving process of the two parts of the proportion should be said to be in half, but for this kind of skillfully carved works, the proportion is almost completely inclined to the acquired carving, from the carving author is very foresightful of the selection of materials, to the design process of the familiar reading of the classics in the literature and history, and then to the carving process of careful carving. Every step forward is almost a step of subversion of the previous step! β
"The shape can be crooked. But it must fit the theme, the subject matter can be whimsical but not far-fetched, the color can be varied, but each part must be distinct, the material can be loose and stiff, but it must be clear in primary and secondary! β
Ouyang Yao suddenly brightened. It turns out that this is the real design concept, teach students according to their aptitude, maximize the value of xiΓ n materials, no bad materials, only poor designers!
"Fifth Uncle listened to you today, the jade design is really interesting!" Ouyang was excited.
"Girl. Jade can be passed down for thousands of years, and there must be a deep heritage. The ancients paid attention to the square inch, and there was no hole! A true master of design is a man with a unique vision who can discover the magic that others can't see. Use your ingenuity to rejuvenate the charm of the rough and double its value. β
Ouyang was enthusiastic, and today he really opened his mouth, and he suddenly integrated architectural design and jewelry design. I opened a new door and looked at the design that I thought I was happy with, and I had a lot of different ideas.
"I announce that I will officially enter jade design in the future, fifth uncle, I want to worship you as a teacher!"
Looking at Ouyang Yao's serious appearance, the fifth uncle comforted her, this girl has been spiritual since she was a child, and she can endure hardships, and she was born to do this business. Today, he finally realized his way back and returned to the right path, and Brother Ouyang must be very happy to know it.
"Really? Are you really going back to work? β
Ouyang Rongcheng was excited, this time he wanted the girl to start being interested in jade and change her mind little by little. I didn't expect her to announce the good news as soon as she got home, and I couldn't believe it.
"I've figured it out!" Ouyang said with a stern face: "As a member of the Ouyang family, I must share the worries and problems of my grandfather and father, and it is a matter of time before I return to the company." I also realized my dream of doing architectural design and had a well-known project. The next step is to go back to the company and study hard with the fifth uncle. β
"Good, good! I'm so happy! β
Ouyang Rongcheng laughed, now Ouyang Tian has also begun to learn management steadily, and the girl is also in charge of design, and the Ouyang family finally has a successor!
"Don't worry, grandpa didn't make you give up your ideals, the designs are all the same. As the old saying goes, the stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade. When you encounter a bottleneck, change your thinking, do something else, and then turn back again! β
"I understand that today I really understand the true meaning of jade design, which is also architecture, micro architecture, which can better reflect the level and have more desire for challenge!"
Ouyang Rongcheng sighed, Wu Shixiang is really a magical person, and he can solve anything when he meets him. If he doesn't say anything else, just as the girl goes back to the company to help, he will remember that kid's favor.
Wu Shixiang didn't know that his unintentional move had such a big impact, and he chatted with Lao Kuang in the Agarwood Pavilion to discuss the idea of opening a branch in Taiyuan next.
Now Mu Yuanju has a great reputation in Kyoto, and with the growth of cultural play and financial management, many foreign players also have the request to open branches. Although the network and logistics are very developed now, you can only experience the fun when you buy cultural toys.
The main thing is that in the future, there must be a considerable number of industries as the foundation, and reputation is also very important. This is all related to the standards of the national audit and the increase in the future debut.
Each provincial capital has a strong consumption power, which can be seen from the enthusiasm of foreign buyers. Now the three branches of Muyuanju have people who are responsible for online sales, and the next step is to launch a website. Monthly sales account for more than 40% of physical sales, indicating that there is a lot of potential in the field. (To be continued.) )
