Chapter 260 Is he delicate?
Chen You and Gu Shaoyu discussed again and decided to use this news to build momentum for the studio.
Soon, news came out that a mysterious collector had a natural seawater pearl that was 18.2 mm in size and in perfect condition. It had an extremely beautiful luster and was not called the Mermaid's Tear. It was a rare treasure.
Everyone in the circle wanted to take a look at it and see how beautiful and precious it was.
But except for a small number of people who got the news and knew who the collector was, no one else has seen any photos of the items.
Some even suspected that it was a scam. It was not uncommon for people to use fake collections as collateral.
The next day.
The studio officially started working, and Chen You went there early in the morning, wearing decent clothes on purpose.
"The vacation lasts for a month and a few days. Everyone around me is so envious!" Yu Xiaosu held the breakfast in his hand. He had a happy month and looked in good spirits.
"The vacation is too long. I love working and I love repairing boxes!" Cheng Liang took out the lacquerware he had not finished repairing.
"Get the King of Forks out!" Yu Xiaosu said solemnly.
Wei Xiaofeng nodded, then took the object he had copied to find Chen You.
"Boss, I did some research a few days ago, but I always felt like something was missing from what I made."
Modern technology is adequate, but it is not enough to properly restore cultural relics.
After Chen You understood his reproduction process, he explained the technical problems to him in detail.
This was the lost craft that she had brought back from Da Qi. She had become very skilled at it. Although she could not compare to the ancient craftsmen who had spent half their lives studying it, she was still quite capable in modern track restoration.
"Good boy, didn't you just tell Juan Wangcha to get out?" Cheng Liang was confused. He was on vacation at home, and he just started doing this the moment he opened his eyes?
If I remember correctly, the process of making the replica had just begun before the holiday.
"That's right." Yu Xiaosu agreed.
"You too, went to sort out the rubbings with Professor Li and Miss Shen after the New Year." Wei Xiaofeng looked at Yu Xiaosu.
"Ahem," Yu Xiaosu coughed twice, "Well, I'm better at this."
Everyone was chatting and laughing as they packed up their things and prepared to officially start work.
Chen You was also busy. It was the studio's first big order, and the restoration of the phoenix crown was still to be done with the final finishing touches. After adjusting the inlaid gems, she could take a photo and send it to the customer for confirmation.
She is still contacting designers, and knowing that these are valuable antique beads, several well-known designers are willing to take on the job.
After communication, we chose someone whose style was suitable and who was well-versed in traditional craftsmanship.
I took some time to go to Wen Zhi's residence next door. He had people arranged by Xiao Lu who would come to clean it every once in a while.
No one has lived there for a while, so it's clean. Chen You just went to check on the progress of his plan to break through the wall and install a door.
It should be because Shang Pei was contacted that the progress was so fast. Today, the relevant personnel came to go through the formalities to confirm that the wall can be moved, and then construction can begin.
"Mr. Wen said he wanted a door that matched the entire yard, and he wanted it to be made of antique wood, and he had various other requirements."
There are a lot of requirements, but he is willing to spend money, so Xiao Lu wants to see if Chen You has any channels.
"Yes, I have it. I'll get it over in a couple of days."
It’s not cheaper to look for it in Da Qi than in modern times.
"Okay, I'll put it on Mr. Wen's account." Xiao Lu said with a smile.
There is no need to ask Mr. Wen about this matter. Miss Shen has agreed, so he definitely has no objection.
When I just returned to work, all the things piled up at once, and it took two days to finish them.
I also attended a drinking party and had a meal at a hotel near South Lake.
Old Master Xu and the eldest uncle of the Xu family were also there. Knowing that Chen You had joined the advisory group of Academician Hu's project based on her own strength, they specially invited her to come over.
By the way, I also arranged with Chen You a time to go to the imperial capital for study, and we would also have someone there to coordinate the trip.
Chen You is not good at socializing, so Gu Shaoyu has introduced many people to him on behalf of the studio.
You have to know that for these old men and middle-aged people over 50 years old, for a business of the size of the Gu family, if you want to meet one of them, you have to make an appointment in advance, and others may not necessarily make the time.
There are also a few young ones who usually don’t show up in public and are truly from high-class families.
Now he can sit at the same table with others for dinner, toast them, and let these people know that he is the son of the Gu family. It is really all thanks to Chen You.
At the end of the dinner, Mr. Xu kindly asked Chen You,
"You just drank, how are you going to get home?"
The temperature was only four or five degrees at this time. As a man, Gu Shaoyu didn't care. Anything was fine. But he was worried about Chen You going back alone so late at night. Who knew if the designated driver was reliable?
"How about I arrange a driver to take you there?"
"It's okay, Grandpa Xu, someone will come to pick me up later." Chen You said with a smile.
She had originally planned to take Gu Shaoyu's car and ask the driver to take her back first, but just now she received a message from the shop.
When Chen You went out today, she left a message saying that she had to attend a social event. Wen Zhi should have seen it when he returned.
"Who is it? The other partner you mentioned before? A boyfriend?"
"Yeah." Shen You nodded in response.
Mr. Xu frowned slightly, still a little worried, "Okay, if there is anything, call Assistant Li."
Shen You smiled, "Okay."
Watching Chen You and Gu Shaoyu walk towards the studio, Mr. Xu also turned around and went back to the hotel.
"This girl is good, but with her resume, she can't participate in Academician Hu's project if she doesn't have real skills."
To do this, being Professor Li's apprentice is not enough. One must have some ability on one's own, not just because of family background.
Besides, she doesn't have any advantages in this regard.
"Some of the key information was compiled and provided by her." Master Xu smiled, "Now you know why I am so optimistic about her, right?"
Not only can he chat with the old man about antiques and cultural relics, he is also capable and has a good image in the collecting circle.
Uncle Xu nodded in agreement. Academician Hu’s project was no small matter, so Xu Jiayan had to participate.
Although he is not directly involved, they are all working in the same system, so there will always be connections.
"You are good at judging people, but it's a pity that she already has a boyfriend. We can't be a family."
"Who said we can't be a family? Doesn't she already recognize me as her godfather?" Old Master Xu expressed his dissatisfaction.
Originally, she wanted to adopt him as her goddaughter, but considering Xu Jiayan's feelings, they could only be friends if not lovers. She couldn't suddenly become his aunt, so Chen You tactfully lowered her salary by half.
"This girl's boyfriend must be a relative of the Shang family." Old Master Xu sighed. How could he not find out who Xiyuan belonged to?
“That guy said he came back from abroad, and I don’t know what he is like. If it doesn’t work, I have to support Chen You and introduce a few outstanding people.”
Chen You stood at a convenient parking spot next to the creek garden, a cold breeze blowing across the opposite river bank.
Gu Shaoyu said he would stand with her for a while and wait for Wen Zhi to arrive before leaving. The alcohol content of the wine he drank today was not low.
"Why do I feel like you are the wife of a little spoiled husband who comes to entertain people at home?"
As he was speaking, a car drove over, turned smoothly, and rolled down its window.
"Are you talking about me?" Wen Zhi asked calmly, with a look that seemed to stab someone.
Is he small? Is he delicate?
Of course, he can also be delicate, depending on the situation, and say that his wound hurts.
