This feeling is like a bully classmate seeing a problem and can't help itching.
The Siamese royal family bid [-] million US dollars to order a life-sized Jade Buddha statue from Xiangfenglou.
Five hundred million U.S. dollars, according to the current exchange rate, is at least more than 30 billion yuan.Sure enough, it is a business worth hundreds of millions.
"Okay! This job... I'll take it!"
Lu Li smiled at Shen Menglin, and accepted the jade carving task.
Money is not important, the key is, such a big piece of jade, I really want to cut it!I have never cut such a large material!
"You agree? Great!"
Hearing Lu Li's agreement, Shen Menglin's face was full of joy, "Thank you! Thank you Master Lu. You have helped me a lot."
The cooperation intention has been reached.
After Lu Li and Shen Menglin settled the deal, he had just returned to the dormitory when Manager Wu ran over.
"Master Lu, you... have accepted a project worth [-] million dollars from Shen Menglin?"
Manager Wu was full of envy, "The master is the master. It's amazing that such a big project came to us so casually."
"It has nothing to do with money."
Lu Li smiled, "The key is that the material is good, I really want to cut it."
Nothing to do with money?That's because...you are already rich!
Manager Wu's face is full of depression, you are a full man who doesn't know how hungry a man is!
"You... awesome!"
Apart from this sentence, Manager Wu didn't know what to say.
"Tomorrow I will go directly to Nanyang from Yunnan Province."
Lu Li said to Manager Wu, "After I come back, I'll go to the company to make jade carvings for you."
"No problem! No problem!"
Manager Wu nodded again and again, "Your contract with the company only requires one piece of jade carving every month, and you can finish it anytime."
Lu Li's contract with Huaxia Arts & Crafts Company was also of a cooperative nature, and he was not an employee of Huaxia Arts & Crafts Company. The company had no control over Lu Li.
……
"You said, Lu Li signed a cooperation project worth [-] million US dollars with Nanyang Xiangfenglou?"
Mr. Jiang was stunned for a while when he heard the news from Manager Wu. He didn't make a sound for a long time.
My little junior brother is really soaring into the sky!Now, they all flew to Nanyang.
A $[-] million project!That's how it came to me.
In the art industry, after becoming famous and having a family, it is really sought after by countless people!
At that time, if I had not taken the administrative route and insisted on engaging in art, wouldn't I... be able to be as brilliant as my junior brother?
President Jiang let out a long sigh.
Lu Li, the future is limitless!
Chapter 251 Master Lu, you are the real master!
The next day, Lu Li and Shen Menglin went to Nanyang together.
Book the flight ticket, apply for the passport, pick up and drop off in a special car, Shen Menglin treats Lu Li like a uncle.
"Master Lu, due to some special reasons, we cannot hold a press conference for the time being regarding your cooperation with us."
In the first-class cabin of the plane, Shen Menglin looked at Lu Li with an apologetic face, "Do you think it's okay to hold a press conference after you finish this jade carving?"
Lu Li understood Shen Menglin's request very well.
Because of family strife, Shen Menglin, who was desperate, went to find Lu Li on a special trip.When a helper is invited, it is natural to try to keep it secret as much as possible, so as to prevent others from making stumbling blocks.
Lu Li also thinks it's good to keep it secret for the time being, so as not to get involved in some messy things.
"no problem."
Lu Li smiled and nodded, "After the carving is finished, hold a press conference!"
A press conference is a must.In the art industry, fame is also very important.To become a master, one must have enough fame.
"Okay. Thank you for understanding!"
Shen Menglin was grateful, "Master Lu, I will trouble you this time."
The plane took off from Yunnan Province and arrived in Siam all the way.
After landing at the Bangkok airport, Shen Menglin took Lu Li to the main branch of Xiangfenglou in Bangkok.
"Master Lu, this is the main store in Bangkok, and there is a villa next to me."
When she came to Xiangfenglou's main store in Bangkok, Shen Menglin turned her head to look at Lu Li, and asked, "Would you like to go to the villa to rest first, or..."
"Go and see that piece of jade first!"
To Lu Li, it didn't matter where he lived, what he cared about most was the giant jade stone over two meters high.
In fact, a jade stone more than two meters high is not really a giant jade stone.
The famous king of jade in China weighs 260 tons, just like a mountain.Compared with the king of jade, this piece of jade, which is more than two meters high, can only be regarded as scum.
It's just... this is already the biggest jade that Lu Li has come into contact with.
Following Shen Menglin, they came to the jade warehouse, and Lu Li saw this huge jade over two meters high.
This piece of jade is long and irregular in shape. The jade skin has peeled off. The jade flesh has many colors, including dark green, full green, light green, black, yellow, red and other colors. The jade is crystal clear and free of impurities. There is no break in the whole body, no penetrating lines, it is indeed a good piece of jade.
However, it is impossible for such a large piece of jade to be of the same texture, but varied, including top-grade jade, second-grade jade, and low-grade leftovers.
After walking around the giant jade, Lu Li even picked up a small hammer and tapped it lightly a few times to hear the sound of the jade.
After checking it once, Lu Li nodded slightly.
"Master Lu, is this material still suitable?"
Seeing that Lu Li finished the inspection, Shen Menglin hurried up and asked Lu Li.
"good!"
Lu Li nodded, "Although there are some leftovers, it's not too much. Overall, it's pretty good. The person who chooses this material is still very discerning."
"You flatter me!"
A reserved smile floated on Shen Menglin's face.
"Oh? So Miss Shen chose the material herself?"
Lu Li smiled and nodded, "Sure enough."
"It's fine if you think it fits."
Shen Menglin was overjoyed when she heard Lu Li's praise.I got the affirmation of Master Lu, which shows that I still have a professional eye in choosing materials.
"You said, this piece of material is to be carved with a full-length Buddha statue, and it was designated by the Siamese royal family. So... do they have any requirements?"
Lu Li felt that this should be a "custom work", not just something he could do freely.
"There is indeed a request."
Shen Menglin quickly took out a document and handed it to Lu Li, "Master Lu, take a look. This work is a Buddha statue used to celebrate the wedding of the Siamese crown prince. According to the domestic saying, this is a ritual vessel. Siamese The royal family still has some requirements."
ritual vessel?
It's a misnomer.
The sacrificial utensils of Yanhuang nobles are called sacrificial utensils.Siam can only be regarded as a vassal state, and is not qualified to use ritual vessels.
Lu Xin muttered to himself, and didn't care about it, after all, Shen Menglin was just making an analogy.
Reaching out his hand to take the document, he flipped through it, and Lu Li also knew the requirements of the Siamese royal family for this work.
First of all, it must be a Buddha statue of Shakyamuni, and the size must meet the height of Shakyamuni, so it is called a life-size Buddha.
The other requirements are nothing more than the meaning of auspiciousness and happiness, and there should be no scary shapes such as hell, yaksha, evil spirits and demon heads.
After reading these requirements, Lu Li nodded slightly.Fortunately, the delineated frame is not too rigid and does not affect the creation.
As a creator, the most annoying thing is being limited by others for inspiration and creativity.Doing things in the dojo inside the snail shell is the most disgusting thing.
After reading the information, Lu Li already had a clear idea.
After handing the information to Shen Menglin, Lu Li started circling the giant jade again. Inspiration bloomed in his mind, and various composition schemes emerged in Lu Li's mind.
After Lu Li started working, the huge jade in front of him was more attractive than the beautiful woman Shen Menglin next to him.
"Master Lu, I've arranged a banquet tonight, and I'll wash you off..."
"Don't be noisy!"
Before Shen Menglin could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Lu Li waving her hand.
Lu Li completely ignored Shen Menglin's existence, reached out to touch the giant jade stone, picked up a hammer and tapped lightly, completely immersed in the creation.
Shen Menglin froze for a moment, then gave a wry smile helplessly.
Well, artists can be eccentric.Master Lu's eccentric temper...maybe it's the straight man of steel who was born alone?
If Lu Li knew what Shen Menglin was thinking, he would definitely tell her.It's not that I'm a straight man of steel, but that you're not attractive enough.If Liu Qin was here, I wouldn't bother with jade!
In the next few days, Lu Li was completely immersed in creation.
After carefully measuring the entire piece of jade, inspecting the color and texture of each place up and down, Lu Li began to shape and compose the picture.
The various reception activities arranged by Shen Menglin were completely useless.
Lu Li completely ignored all kinds of things, such as luxury houses and cars, and beauties.
How can a beautiful woman be as beautiful as a beautiful jade?
So... One week after arriving in Bangkok, Lu Li plunged into creation, and even the meals were brought by Shen Menglin.
It was the first time for Lu Li to create a giant jade sculpture, and he was very excited, with a feeling of great interest.
The word "exuberant"... Well, it's actually a word for tigers and wolfs.Interest, then exuberance, you know.
After a week, Lu Li finally completed the overall composition.
Compared with the previous small jade carvings, the creation of large jade carvings requires a lot more work and takes longer.
"The Ten Thousand Buddhas!"
Lu Li looked at the 3D modeling diagram constructed on the computer screen, with a smile on his face, "It's finally done."
After the composition is completed, Shen Menglin has to take a look.
Lu Li turned his head and looked out the window... Well, it's already late at night, so let's talk about it tomorrow.
Turning off the computer and getting up, Lu Li prepared to take a shower and go to bed.
Although it is still the end of April, it is already very hot here in Siam.
After taking a shower, there was a knock on the door of the room.
Well?It's so late, is there anyone coming to see me?
Could it be... Sir, need service?
Lu Li smiled and shook his head.This is the dormitory of Xiangfenglou's main branch in Bangkok. It is definitely impossible for "technical workers" to arrive.
Reaching out to open the door, Lu Li was obviously taken aback when he saw the figure outside the door.
Not Shen Menglin!
There was also a beautiful woman standing at the door, she was a white-collar worker at Xiangfenglou's main store in Bangkok, she seemed to be Shen Menglin's assistant.
As for the name, Lu Li didn't pay attention at all.
At this moment, the female assistant was wearing a short suspender skirt, her clothes were cool, and her face was charming, "Master Lu, the night is long..."
Well, not a "tech worker", but a "bed athlete".
