Chapter 43: The Silken Man (2)

Meng Shi paused, and suddenly remembered that the craftsmen who make silk people will have a rare time to teach people the craft of making silk people in the studio next weekend, and that class is still zero-based! So he told Lan Eucalyptus by the way, and Lan Yu immediately said that he wanted to learn together.

The day of the opening of the silk man making class is coming soon, and the place is at the home of the silk master Xu Huihui. The courtyard of Mr. Xu's house is particularly large, like a back garden.

The garden is paved with fine white stones, and walking on it smells the fragrance of the flowers in the garden, so that the mood is clear.

Liu Mengshi walked in with a blue eucalyptus and found a 30-year-old woman with long curly hair sitting at the long solid wood table in the sunroom.

She raised her face and greeted Lan Eucalyptus and Mengshi very warmly. During the chat, Lan Yu learned that she was Master Xu Huihui's most proud disciple - Tang Tang.

Tang Tang was shocked by the silk man Mu Guiying by chance, and after several tosses, he contacted the silk master Xu Huihui.

The inheritor of Xu Lao's generation, teaching students to teach each other, studied under Ge An, the first generation of Beijing Juanren, Xu Lao is most afraid of the Juanren in his own hands.

During the study period with Xu Lao, Tang Tang saw a lot of traditional crafts, such as, what is called embroidery, how to give a headdress some emerald, the little silk figure is simply a mini museum of traditional Chinese crafts.

She originally successfully started a business in Zhongguancun, reorganized a team, opened a studio Tangrenyuan, and concentrated on making Beijing Juanren. The studio is there, and the inheritor has also been found, however, it can't be sold, and it's still a tight spell on the head of the silk man.

The materials are expensive, the handwork is complicated, the production cost of the silk man is already expensive, coupled with the profit margin of the resale in the shopping mall, the price of two or three thousand is prohibitive.

It's such a good art, why can't you get out? Everyone can't support themselves, how can they pass on the art of silk people? After thinking about it, Tang Tang decided to improve it, make a batch of affordable silk people, and let it enter the homes of ordinary people.

The silk head is the most complex and laborious part, after repeated tests, the affordable silk man borrowed from the ordinary doll material to replace the expensive gauze silk, and the makeup was constantly adjusted, so that the traditional silk man has a sense of fashion.

Affordable silk people retain the essence of traditional crafts, take Chinese culture, pay attention to clothing design, and the cost of materials is greatly reduced, the price is close to the people, after the launch of the market, the art of silk people finally came to life.

Lan Yu looked at the silk figures in Xu Lao's room, and admired the five bodies on the ground, these silk figures are mostly based on ancient Chinese folk tales and literary masterpieces, and characters in excerpts from Peking Opera. The most common is the image of an ancient lady.

Xu Huihui believes that no one will favor the handicrafts without characteristics, in order to create more characters, she reads history books, visits places of interest, and finds inspiration for creation from the precipitation of history.

Now, the main characters in the four famous novels, the four ancient beauties who sink the fish and the geese, close the moon and shy flowers, as well as more than 100 kinds of characters such as Hua Mulan and Mu Guiying are vividly displayed in the house.

Xu Huihui's proudest work is "Yang Guifei", a character based on the story of Yang Guifei's visit to the garden. The concubine is holding a peony round fan, with a plump body, long-sleeved neon clothes, and a swaying hairpin ring, showing her grace and luxury.
