My Life Simulator

The next morning, the 10th "Bianhe Cup Jade Carving Craft Competition" officially kicked off.

"Caiyun TV! Dear viewers, this is the live broadcast of the 10th 'Bianhe Cup Jade Carving Craft Competition'. I am the host Li Min."

A female host of Yunnan TV station is broadcasting the jade carving craft competition live.

"Today, we are honored to invite the famous jade carving craftsman, Li Wenjin, the chairman of the Jade Carving Association of the National Arts and Crafts Association."

The host introduced the guests to the audience.

"Hello host, hello audience friends!"

This President Li Wenjin is suddenly the grandfather of the judge who called Mr. Han - Mr. Li.

"Mr. Li, the audience may not know much about the 'Bianhe Cup Jade Carving Competition', can you introduce it to everyone?"

"certainly."

Mr. Li smiled and nodded, "Who is Bian He? Maybe some friends don't know. Then, when it comes to He's jade, everyone should be familiar with it. Bian He is the discoverer of the He's jade."

"The jade carving competition named after 'Bian He' and the 'Lu Zigang Cup' jade carving competition are also known as the two top competitions in the jade carving industry."

"The authority of the Bianhe Cup Jade Carving Competition is second only to the "Hundred Flowers Award", the highest award in the arts and crafts industry, and is equal to the "Tian Gong Award" and the "Lu Zigang Cup".

"Being able to win the gold medal of the 'Bianhe Cup Jade Carving Competition' can already be called a master of jade carving craftsmanship."

After listening to Mr. Li's explanation, the host smiled and nodded, "Thank you Mr. Li for your answer."

"Friends from the audience, the Bian He Cup Jade Carving Craft Competition is about to start. Let's get to know the exquisite jade carving masters who participated in this competition."

The big screen showed a group of "masters" who participated in this jade carving craft competition.

Among these "Master Jade Carving Masters", who are basically in their forties and have a long list of titles in front of their names, Lu Li, a young newcomer, is very conspicuous.

"Huh? Audience friends, we were surprised to see that a young jade carving craftsman appeared in this Bianhe Cup jade carving competition."

After all, he is a famous host of the provincial and Taiwanese TV stations. Seeing Lu Li's excessively young face, Li Min did not honor Lu Li as a "master", but only said that he was a jade carving craftsman.

"This jade carving craftsman named Lu Li is from the capital. This year... nineteen years old! What an enviable youth!"

The host smiled and said, "Mr. Li, I'm also interested in this nineteen-year-old jade carving craftsman. Let's take a look at the profile of this player Lu Li."

Lu Li's personal information was displayed on the big screen.

"This player Lu Li is also very skilled! Everyone, Lu Li is a young artist who once created a sculpture. Huh? Wait! The name Lu Li... I seem to have heard of it somewhere."

While introducing Lu Li's information, the host Li Min frowned slightly, as if thinking about where he had heard of the name Lu Li.

"Lu Li, he was last year's top student with a perfect score in the college entrance examination!"

A spectator at the scene, a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, stood up and reminded.

"Yes! It was him!"

The host suddenly realized, "Our top student with a perfect score in the college entrance examination is indeed a genius! Last year, he created a sculpture work and is known as a talented young artist. It seems that this player Lu Li is also very powerful."

Having said that, the host looked at Mr. Li again and asked, "Mr. Li, is there a difference between sculpture and jade carving? Lu Li is a young artist in the sculpture industry, but he came to participate in the jade carving competition. I don't quite understand it."

"Sculpture and jade carving are two completely different things."

Mr. Li said with a smile: "Lu Li is indeed very talented in sculpture, and he is indeed a talented young artist. However, just like driving a battery car and driving a car, there is still a big difference between the two."

"Oh? You mean... you don't like Lu Li's performance in the jade carving competition?"

The host asked quickly.

"I'm still looking forward to him doing well."

Mr. Li answered very politely, but everyone could tell that he was not very optimistic about Lu Li's performance.

...

The Jade Carving Craft Competition is about to begin.

Lu Li walked out of the hotel with Manager Wu, followed by two bodyguards, and went to the Jade City competition site.

In Jade City, the organizing committee has prepared dozens of separate jade carving studios, equipped with complete jade carving tools and corresponding materials.

Lu Li came to the arena and drew lots to select the jade carving studio.

This time, Lu Li drew the number "23". This number...it's neither 666, nor 213, not even 233, it's completely uncharacteristic!

Lu Li shook his head with a smile, greeted Manager Wu and the two bodyguards, and walked all the way to the No. 23 jade carving studio.

This is a professional jade carving studio.

All equipment and facilities have been professionally inspected and debugged to ensure that there will be no unexpected influences caused by any equipment and facilities during the competition.

However, Lu Li walked into the studio, checked the jade carving equipment again, and confirmed the operation status of the equipment again.

After the inspection, Lu Li changed into work clothes in the locker room of the studio, put on a dust mask, and sat on the seat of the jade carving equipment, ready to start work.

...

"Everyone, the 10th Bianhe Cup Jade Carving Competition has officially started. We see that jade carving craftsmen from all over the country are preparing for the competition."

In the studio of the TV station, the host broadcasted enthusiastically, "In every jade carving studio, we have installed shooting equipment. Now, let's switch the camera and see what the jade carving craftsmen are doing? "

The camera switched to the scene, and a jade carving craftsman appeared on the screen.

"This is the master of jade carving from Huhai, Master Zhang Yu. We see that Master Zhang is... closing his eyes and resting?"

The host turned his head to look at Mr. Li and asked, "Elder Li, Master Zhang Yu is closing his eyes to recuperate. Is this... what's the point?"

"Jade carving craftsmen will 'meditate' before creating jade carvings. This is to get rid of distracting thoughts and ensure that the mind is steady during the carving process."

Mr. Li explained with a smile: "We know that the creation of jade carvings is very delicate, and if you make a single mistake, all your achievements will be lost. Therefore, this process of meditation is essential. However, each jade carver has a different way of meditation. ."

"Listening to you, we are interested."

The host smiled and said, "Audience friends, let's take a look at how the masters of jade carving meditate."

The screens switched one by one, some jade carving masters closed their eyes and rested, some jade carving masters were moving their fingers, some jade carving masters were reading books, and some jade carving masters were wiping knives...

The meditation process of each master is different.

When the camera switched to Lu Li's side... Everyone was stunned.

In the picture, Lu Li was already sitting on the jade carving equipment, carefully installing the jade on the fixture.

"Uh... this player Lu Li, maybe... has completed his meditation and is ready to start creating."

When he said this, the host himself didn't believe it. It took less than two minutes for the contestants to walk into the workshop, check the equipment, and change their clothes. What time do they have to meditate?

"Perhaps... this player Lu Li feels that he doesn't need to meditate!"

Mr. Li pouted and thought: Lao Han, your apprentice is not as good as you said! Didn't even meditate, wasn't the game nervous? Aren't you afraid of shaking hands?

There is still plenty of time for this jade carving competition. The organizer has given three days for the creation of jade carvings.

Therefore, Lu Li's rush to start jade carving without "mind and rest", in the eyes of Mr. Li, is simply nonsense.

Sharpening knives does not cut firewood by mistake, haven't you heard of it? If you don't meditate, if you don't adjust your body and mind, you will make a one-size-fits-all mistake, and you will lose your face!

In fact, Lu Li really doesn't need to meditate!

The calm state of mind made Lu centrifugal calm and unhurried, completely unaware of what tension is.

The dexterity of the mind makes Lu Li's hands very dexterous and stable, and there is no tremor at all.

Of course... no leg shaking! My legs are shaking and I went back to move bricks!

Lu Li's sculpting composition is complete, now all that's left to do is sculpt and polish.

Reach out and press the power supply, start the jade carving equipment, and the motor spins rapidly.

After adjusting the position of the jade, Lu Li stretched out his hand and picked up an electric carving knife. The rapidly rotating carbide tip slashed the jade.

Because he already had a draft in his heart, Lu Li already knew the entire carving process, how to cut each knife. Moreover, Lu Li's nerve reflexes are very fast, and his movements also become fast.

To others, it looks like... Lu Li picked up the knife and cut it, without thinking, no matter what, he just messed around a few times!

"Mr. Li, we see that Lu Li has already started to create."

The host looked at the scene where the hands and feet were swiftly on the screen, cutting down with a knife, and the jade shavings splashed, he hesitated for a while, and asked Mr. Li, "Player Lu Li's operation... seems to be very skilled and very fast!"

"It won't work soon!"

Mr. Li looked at the picture and frowned, "Young people are frizzy and frizzy, what's the use of doing it in three or two times? It's so fast, without any mention of quality, nonsense!"

Uh……

The host was stunned for a moment, what are you saying...why is it a little weird?

"Let's take a look at the creation of other players."

The host quickly switched the camera to the pictures of other contestants.

Now, the contestant on the screen is Master Liu Yu from Yangzhou.

In the picture, Master Liu Yu carefully wiped the knives, sat on the seat calmly, started the equipment for a test drive slowly, and then carefully removed the jade for installation.

After installing the jade and checking it again, Master Liu picked up the thinnest engraving needle and carved it on the jade like a dragonfly.

"Steady and moderate, not in a hurry. Not bad."

Mr. Li nodded slightly, "Look at his kung fu, he is a little bit of water, nine shallow and one deep, this is the best operation!"

The host was stunned again. Your words... feel even more strange.

In the jade carving studio.

Lu Li still maintains a fast-paced carving, constantly changing knives in his hands, and carving and polishing jade.

In the eyes of the host and Mr. Li, Lu Li was too frustrating. From Manager Wu's point of view, Lu Li has entered a normal working state.

When he was in the capital before, Lu Li created jade carvings in the Huaxia Arts and Crafts Company. The speed is the same as now, fast and fast, but accurate and stable.

The transparent jade that Lu Li chose was a clear material. The jade skin of the original stone had long since peeled off, revealing the jade flesh completely.

Lu Li first reshaped the two palm-sized flat jade, and corrected its appearance to the outline of the jade bi.

Then, trace a picture on this jade bi, and gently trace the shape pattern on the jade bi with a fine needle.

When he was tracing, Lu Li was still moving very fast. It seemed that he was going all the way in a drastic way, but in fact, the operation was very precise and precise.

Although there is nothing superficial, there is nothing shallow and one deep, but it seems that the pen is a dragon and a snake, and it is easy to do.

After drawing, it is rough carving. Lu Li's movements were different from the dawdling of other jade carving masters.

The studio screen switched to Lu Li's side again.

Seeing Lu Li's knife open and close, Mr. Li frowned, and was about to scold him, but when he saw Lu Li's subtle movements, he suddenly closed his mouth again.

From Mr. Li's eyes, it is natural to see that Lu Li is fast, but... the quality is not bad at all.

Every knife goes down, the force is precise. It seems to be open and close, but it is precise and steady.

This is not frizzy messing about, but... I have a plan in my heart. This kind of open and close knife technique is even more majestic, like a surging trend, unstoppable.

Han Ba ​​Dao?

Is this the technique of Han Ba ​​Dao?

Vigorous atmosphere, mighty. This... is very similar to the technique of Han Ba ​​Dao.

It's just that the Han Ba ​​Dao cuts nephrite jade, and the hard and brittle material like jadeite dares to use the Han Ba ​​Dao technique?

Are you not afraid to go down with a knife and chop the jade?

Looking at Lu Li's slashing past, every stab was stabbed in the slightest, and the strength was just right.

This made Mr. Li stunned for a long time.

Are your hands so steady? Precise control of every ounce of power? Precise control of the depth of each cut? Are you afraid that you are not a robot?

At this moment, Mr. Li finally believed Mr. Han's words, Lu Li guy, it's really not easy, he really has some ability.

"Lord Li, look. This player Lu Li, the action of cutting jade, feels the same as me cutting vegetables at home."

The host looked at the screen and said with a smile, "Cut jade is like cutting vegetables! Contestant Lu Li is also really interesting. Aren't you afraid of making a one-size-fits-all mistake and discarding this piece of jade?"

"It can't be scrapped!"

Mr. Li nodded in admiration, "Using the Han Ba ​​Dao technique to carve jadeite, this kid Lu Li is really amazing!"

"Uh?"

The host was stunned, what do you mean? Haven't you been in the dark before? How did you change your mouth now?

And... if you want to change your mind, say hello!

I said that he cut jade like cutting vegetables, but you told me that he is very good?

This turn is so... unpredictable!
