Fu Song looked at the rich second generation suspiciously.
Kang Zhengqi stared at Fu Ziming excitedly: "Are you Master Fu?"
Fu Ziming was stunned: "Do you know me?"
Kang Zhengqi hurriedly said: "I don't know you, but I know your knife!
The name "Hundred Killings Blade" resounded throughout Notre Dame Cathedral back then.
Fu Song was surprised and said, "'Hundred Killings Blade'? Notre Dame de Paris? What is that?"
Kang Zhengqi looked at him strangely: "You don't know?"
Fu Song shook his head. It was really the first time he heard of it.
As if thinking of something very exciting, Kang Zhengqi said: "Five years ago, the Paris Art Association held a world-class sculpture competition.
At that time, there were as many as 800,000 registered participants. After layers of screening, the organizers finally selected 3,000 people to attend the finals at the Notre Dame Cathedral.
Each of these three thousand people is the world's top sculptor.
All of their works are ingenious and lifelike.
Among them, the one with the highest chance of winning the championship is Yasuji Okamura from Japan.
Not only that, in order to support Okamura, many financial groups in the United States placed a heavy bet of nearly 200 billion in the beautiful casino!
But on the day of the final, no one expected that three thousand masters would be at the top of the competition, competing for the title of the number one sculptor.
An ordinary Chinese man suddenly emerged as a rising star!
With the help of a jade ornament with the pattern of "Hundred Chrysanthemums in Full Bloom", he defeated all the contestants.
Carving hundreds of chrysanthemums is extremely difficult.
But what is even more rare is that each of these chrysanthemums represents a variety, such as the Black Peony, Rouge Dot Snow, Cinnabar Red Frost, and Jade Phoenix on the Jade Terrace...
Of course, the variety of chrysanthemums alone is not enough to win him the prize.
But when the "Hundred Chrysanthemums in Full Bloom" took shape, a breeze blew, and these flower carvings seemed to come alive.
I was sitting in the audience at the time and saw this scene with my own eyes.
You have no idea how shocked I was at that time. Master Fu's craftsmanship can be described as exquisite.
There was no dispute at all, and in the end 'A Hundred Chrysanthemums in Full Bloom' won the championship with an absolute advantage of unanimous votes.
The faces of those conglomerates in the small country turned green.
Do they think that just because Okamura Yasuji learned some basic Chinese carving techniques, he would be invincible?
Little did they know that our country's masters could teach them how to behave in just a few minutes.
After this incident, all carving enthusiasts around the world began to study Master Fu's carving skills.
Everyone discovered that the reason why his carving of "A Hundred Chrysanthemums in Full Bloom" gave people a feeling of moving in the wind was mainly due to his exquisite and complex knife skills.
Combined with his feat of single-handedly defeating three thousand carving masters.
Some people named his sword technique "Hundred Killing Sword" after the line "When my flower blooms, all other flowers die" in Huang Chao's "Poem on Chrysanthemums after Failing the Imperial Examination".
When autumn comes on September 8th, my flowers will bloom and all other flowers will die.
The fragrance of incense permeates Chang'an, and the whole city is covered with golden armor.
Such great passion, this is what a real man should be like!
Unfortunately, Master Fu retired immediately after winning the championship, and we haven't heard from him since."
Kang Zhengqi said to Fu Ziming, "Master Fu, you don't know that after watching the competition, I fell in love with the art of sculpture.
I've watched the video of you winning the competition at least a thousand times, otherwise I wouldn't have recognized you at first sight."
Fu Song also looked at Fu Ziming: "Uncle San, is what he said true?"
Fu Ziming was a little embarrassed: "It's just a low-level competition. Besides, a hero doesn't brag about his past achievements..."
Fu Song was speechless for a moment.
You know, Notre Dame de Paris is the world's art capital.
If the competitions held in this place are not up to standard, then what is up to standard?
At the same time, Fu Song finally understood.
Why couldn't Wang Fugui recognize the fake Longwei inkstone made by Fu Ziming?
After all, no matter how shameless Old Wang is, he has run an antique jewelry store for eight years, so he must have some skills.
He just doesn't know that although he has the level, there are people who are better than him.
And it is more than one level higher.
Seeing that Fu Song didn't believe him, Fu Ziming said, "I really didn't lie.
Real jade carving is to design the work individually based on the texture and structure of the jade itself.
During the design process, not only should the stone skin, stone mist and pine flowers be utilized as much as possible, but internal cracks and faults should also be cleverly avoided.
But what about those foreigners?
They actually grind the jade into powder, then color and cast it according to the pre-designed drawings, and finally carve it.
Although it can more perfectly present what you want, this method is soulless."
Fu Song was stunned for a long time before he said, "So you're saying that the sculpture competition held by the Paris Art Association is too easy?"
Fu Ziming nodded: "You can understand it that way!
If I hadn't seen that guy with the grass on his head, Okamura Yasuji, being so arrogant, I wouldn't have participated in the competition.
The result... well, I'm so embarrassed."
Fu Song: “…”
The atmosphere fell silent in an instant.
Finally, Kang Zhengqi asked again, "Master Fu, can you sell me this jade Guanyin pendant?"
Fu Ziming looked at Fu Song, meaning to let him make the decision.
Fu Songze looked at the topaz Guanyin in his hand.
After listening to Kang Zhengqi's introduction, he found that this pendant was very different from ordinary Guanyin.
Because of Fu Ziming's unique knife skills, Guanyin's eyes actually had a feeling that spring was coming.
After thinking for a moment, Fu Song said to Kang Zhengqi: "Mr. Kang, although this pendant was made by my third uncle, but with all due respect, it is not worth two hundred thousand.
If you want it, just give me 120,000."
Although Fu Ziming is an expert in swordsmanship, this does not mean he can command an unlimited premium.
And Fu Song's eyes also showed:
Topaz Guanyin: 120,000. [Masterpiece, must be a masterpiece!]
As an antique shop owner, Fu Song has always believed that genuine goods and reasonable prices are essential for long-term business.
What's more, is Kang Zhengqi really a rich second-generation who spends money lavishly?
Totally wrong.
Don't be fooled by this guy's strange behavior, he is actually very smart!
You know, he didn't spend a penny more on the stone he bought from Yu Dahai just now.
But after listening to Fu Song's words, Kang Zhengqi shook his head: "No, in my opinion, this topaz Guanyin is worth 200,000!
The jade itself costs 60,000 yuan, Master Fu's carving is worth 60,000 yuan, and the remaining 80,000 yuan is what I bought for its color and concept.
Look at the eyes and expression of this Guanyin. Is she an ordinary Guanyin?
No, she is Guanyin, the Goddess of Childbirth!
Coupled with this authentic color, if you find a girl to open a room at night, dim the lights, and then hang it directly around your neck, that feeling...
hey-hey! "
After saying that, he patted Fu Song on the shoulder and said, "Brother, now tell me, is this topaz Guanyin pendant worth 200,000?"
Fu Song: “…worth it!”
