How did I become an old artist?

Chapter 114 Chinese luxury goods are the real top!
Zhao Chen is indeed popular in the Huaxia porcelain circle and collector circle.

Many people came to him and asked him for a piece of porcelain.

Some people have even offered a high price of 20 pieces.

Most of these people are rich businessmen from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and some are businessmen from Kyoto.

Zhao Chen received an order this month, 20 yuan for a piece of porcelain, and a total of five pieces were fired.

Although he is an anchor and a video host, he does not rely on the Internet to make money, but his own real craftsmanship.

Craft is his means of earning a living.

The next day, Zhao Chen was processing clay in the workshop.

There is a special clay pool deep in the workshop, which can store clay for a long time, but when using it, you need to add some water and step on it to soften it.

This step is called mud refining.

After Zhao Chen processed the clay, he started live broadcasting the firing of porcelain.

Netizens quickly poured into the live broadcast room.

The picture in the live broadcast room is as relaxed and leisurely as ever.

【Master, started firing porcelain again? 】

[I really want to buy one, but I don't know if I can afford it. 】

[Brother Chen fired at least [-] pieces of porcelain! 】

[Is it so expensive?When money comes from the wind! 】

[Let me tell you that there are really, I am here in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the craftsmanship of the provincial porcelain art masters, the minimum guarantee starts at 50 yuan, and a better [-] pieces are possible! 】

[The works of famous people are very valuable. For example, the actor Xie Xun in Su Youpeng's version of Yi Tian Shou Long Ji is an artist in reality, and a painting costs millions. Don't you think it's annoying. 】

Everyone was talking.

At this time, Zhao Chen said generously:
"Recently, I want to make some porcelain to make money. It costs a lot of money to build a house, and decoration is also an expense."

"In addition, I also want to buy some small items, which are very expensive."

"I just bought a box of top-quality Longquan ink pad recently, and spent 7 yuan."

"Next, I still plan to make cloisonne. It is the top metal craft in China, and it will also require some expenses."

Zhao Chen is very calm, making money by his own craftsmanship is aboveboard, it is much better than hanging game download links in the live broadcast room, asking netizens to "click the windmill to download the game", or asking the audience to send gifts to play PK.

He doesn't accept tips for live broadcasts. In addition, his videos at Station B are also very profitable. A few videos probably earned more than 30 yuan. Zhao Chen donated all the money to Huaxia's poverty alleviation organizations.

For him, the Internet is a channel to spread traditional culture.

After hearing Zhao Chen's words, the audience was a little surprised.

[What kind of ink pad can cost 7 yuan?Is that ink pad?That's gold! 】

[Good guy, 7 yuan to buy ink pads, IQ tax? 】

[I suggest that everyone learn about Longquan ink pads. Besides, the unique luxury goods in China, if it is really the ancient Longquan ink pads, it will be about the same price! 】

[I understand that luxury goods are not LV, Patek Philippe, etc.? 】

[The daily necessities of the rich, what can be bought casually are called luxury goods.The real Chinese luxury goods have been produced for many years, and they can't be bought. 】

After Zhao Chen shaped the porcelain body, he washed the mud off his hands, and then glanced at the barrage.

Seeing that everyone is very interested in the price of Longquan ink pad, Zhao Chen explained:

"The real top-quality ancient Longquan ink pad is really worth the price."

"Its materials include dozens of materials such as cinnabar, moxa, rhinoceros yellow, musk, pearl powder, etc., and need to go through more than 30 processes such as blending, boiling, and stirring."

"This kind of ink pad was born in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is the royal ink pad. It does not solidify in winter, does not lose oil when it is blind, does not rot when soaked in water, and does not leave marks on fire. It can remain unchanged for a hundred years."

"Its technology is extremely complicated. The main ingredient is a kind of shredded lotus root, but only two to five shredded lotus root can be extracted from ten thousand catties of shredded lotus root stems, and it has to be dried in the shade for one year before it can be used in the second year."

"In addition, tea oil that has been sun-dried for six years needs to be added."

"It's a real luxury item that's hard to come by with money."

"Its entire production process takes many years, so it can be bought for tens of thousands of yuan, which is actually very cheap."

After hearing Zhao Chen's words, everyone understood a little bit.

Foreign luxury goods, such as LV bags, cost tens of thousands of yuan each, and even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Its cost is very low. Although the craftsmanship is top-notch, there is no time cost. As long as it is willing to produce, it can be produced at any time.

Therefore, generally LV will label itself as a "limited edition" and forcibly raise the price.

But China's traditional luxury goods never claim to be limited editions, because if they strictly follow the process, China's traditional luxury goods can't really produce that much, so they are forced to "limit".

Just like the authentic ancient Longquan inkpad, that's it.

This is the best ink pad in Huaxia.

Zhao Chen has his own pursuit in art.

For example, of his two seals, one is Yin engraving, which is covered with ink pad on paper, and is used in calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting.

The other is Yang engraving, which is engraved on the bottom of porcelain and purple sand pots, leaving imprints directly on them.

These two seals were made of the best Shoushan stone in China, and when he bought it, the material of these two seals was the most expensive, and it belonged to the top grade Huangtian stone among Shoushan stones.

Shoushan stone seal, Longquan inkpad.

These two items alone are worth tens of thousands of yuan, which are real luxury goods.

Some powerful netizens have also discovered this.

[Brother Chen is a true master, the seal of Shoushan Stone, the best Longquan inkpad, this level is unmatched by others! 】

[Yeah, the paintings he draws or the calligraphy he writes, using this kind of seal to imprint the imprint can add a lot of luster to the work! 】

[Although Brother Chen feels that he doesn't usually spend too much, he is really ruthless when it comes to art! 】

【This is the master's pursuit! 】

Everyone sighed with emotion.

At this time, the topic of luxury goods was discussed again in the live broadcast room.

[The moon is full]: [Where do the luxury goods in China come from, aren't they all counterfeit goods and parallel imports? 】

[Green tea, black tea, jasmine tea]: [LV bags, Hermès high heels, which one can be made in China? They use the best calfskin. The materials are genuine. Will Chinese manufacturers use them? 】

It's nothing to buy foreign luxury goods, it depends on personal preference.

But in the traditional culture live broadcast room, still kneeling and licking foreign brands is a bit disgusting.

Many netizens exploded instantly when they saw the comments of these two people.

[All foreigners are your father, are you really a Muyang dog? 】

[Have you seen domestic luxury goods?Do you think you are superior to others when you buy something that foreigners cheat you out of? 】

[It’s really cerebral palsy, no wonder so many people buy foreign luxury goods, this IQ is taxed! 】

Later, someone clicked into the personal information of these two people to see, only to find that they were both doing luxury shopping, and the Douyin videos they sent were the kind that deliberately showed off their LV bags and Hermès leather shoes.

Moreover, the video is full of beautification, heavy makeup, and exaggerated clothing, which belongs to the video style of polluting eyeballs.

Many people began to scold again.

[It's really a Muyang dog, let's talk about Kesi and Yunjin in China! 】

[Uh, I'm from the LV counter. On the contrary, I think Huaxia's luxury goods are far higher than those of LV and Hermès. Also, I checked the homepages of those two people. Their bags are all fake. They should be fake celebrities. . 】

[Haha, it turned out to be a fake celebrity on Douyin! 】

After the two fake celebrities saw the bullet screen in the live broadcast room, they left in despair, and then hurriedly set their accounts as private accounts.

However, they still don't think they are wrong.

"People on the Internet are all dicks and can't afford these luxuries at all. When I say that, they are definitely not happy."

Their faces were ashen, and they could only comfort themselves in anger.

At this time, Zhao Chen saw the quarrel in the live broadcast room.

He calmly said:
"China's luxury goods are truly rare and expensive, and ordinary people really can't afford them."

"For example, there are guards standing guard all day long for the top-grade Wuyi Dahongpao mother tree tea. The annual output is less than three catties, and the price of one gram is more than 1 yuan."

"These tea leaves are specially roasted, and the taste is very long-lasting. After nine times of brewing, the unique sweet-scented osmanthus flavor of Dahongpao is still very obvious."

"On average, the price is about 1000 million yuan per catty, which is affordable only by the top local tyrants."

"Another example is Yunjin, which has a history of 600 years. It cannot be produced by machinery, but must be produced by hand. The price per square meter is about 2 yuan. It used to be a clothing material used by the royal family."

"Dragon robes and phoenix robes are all made of brocade."

"There is also Kesi, which is more precious, and the craftsmanship is extremely complicated, and the effect of hollow carving is made on the silk weaving."

"A Kesi fan is worth [-] yuan."

"A piece of Kesi garment is worth millions. Such a garment takes several years for craftsmen to complete, and it is worth a lot of money."

"In addition to these, there are many real luxuries."

"These are treasures of Chinese traditional handicrafts."

After hearing Zhao Chen's words, the netizens showed amazement.

Only then did everyone increase their knowledge.

It turns out that China's luxury goods are the worst.

Thousands of years of history, intangible cultural heritage, craftsmen for many years.

These luxury goods do not need to be widely known, because they never lack customers and cannot produce so many finished products.

[I haven't heard of many, but I checked some, it's really expensive! 】

[I have seen a blogger make Hanfu, and the price of that Hanfu is one million! 】

[The royal family and nobles in ancient times burned money, which is really exaggerated! 】

[Brother Chen, your craftsmanship is so good, why not make a piece of Kesi! 】

Everyone was talking excitedly.

After seeing the barrage, Zhao Chen said with a smile: "Even if I want to do Kesi, I don't have the tools, and it takes at least a few years of learning Kesi to get started."

"The production is on a silk weaving machine, while stepping on the machine, dozens of shuttles shuttle silk threads of different colors on it, and it also involves a lot of unique silk weaving techniques."

"Before I planned to make Longquan ink pads, but the materials were too difficult to obtain."

"It takes a lot of time to extract two taels of shredded lotus root from tens of thousands of catties of shredded lotus root, so I just bought it."

"If these handicrafts are so easy to make, they won't be called top luxury goods."

"Next, we will broadcast live cloisonné first. For silk weaving, we will have the opportunity to go to some traditional silk weaving factories in the future, and introduce China's top silk fabrics to everyone."

Hearing Zhao Chen's words, everyone's curiosity was completely aroused, and everyone looked forward to his live broadcast even more.
