Chapter 125: Something to Watch
Liao Jiake's production technique was extremely unfamiliar.
She held the clay figure very high, and the potter's wheel underneath was spinning very fast. If she didn't control it well, the figure would collapse.
The audience seemed to find it hard to accept the sudden huge contrast between the two sisters.
Maybe because we have watched the previous two episodes for a long time, everyone has higher expectations for Liao Jiake, but unexpectedly, it was the younger sister who gave people a surprise today.
What's wrong with Keke today? Doesn't she love crafts? She used to be frequently photographed going to pottery studios with her friends, and it even went viral. I remember that.
[Liao Jiake said before that she likes handicrafts. Isn't she just trying to establish a persona? Haha, it doesn't look good.]
[Maybe it’s been too long since I made it, so I’m a little out of shape and don’t have that touch anymore. Don’t be impatient, give Coco some time.]
[Wow, I suddenly got Liao Jiayan. I feel like she’s the best at this.]
[Is this finally a segment where the older sister is inferior to the younger sister? Director, you really understand what the audience wants to see. Have you done any private research? I'm very satisfied with this assignment. Whether it's a horse or a mule, we'll know after we take it out for a walk.]
The moment Liao Jiake saw the body collapse, his expression froze, and his eyebrows and eyes were filled with a complicated expression.
Without much hesitation, she awkwardly picked up the fallen blank, melted it back in, and continued throwing the pottery.
Everyone, including Liao Jiayan, witnessed Liao Jiake's mistake just now.
Seeing her making mistakes frequently, Liao Jiayan didn't show any concern. She pretended not to see anything and took care of her own work as if nothing had happened.
Although Lu Jinsen started off badly, he was able to knead the mud into a ball no matter how slowly he moved, and his progress began to catch up.
Qi Yan's clay ball was not kneaded well at first, and the boss found that it did not meet the standards and kneaded it again.
Everyone began to slowly get into the state and complete their own works.
Liao Jiayan made a vase. After making the blank, she let it dry for a while, and then carved patterns on it after it was dry. It took a little time, but the result was still very beautiful.
Meng Chuyuan made a cup, which was not very big, but after some improvements, she carved a Doraemon on the surface of the cup. It was exquisite and compact, and it became even more beautiful after being glazed.
The guests made their first pottery pieces, which could be taken away directly after being fired, so they were very attentive during the production process.
[I really want the cup that Sister Meng made. Can I have one of the same kind?]
[Qi Yan, who works so hard but can't do it, looks so familiar. Isn't this me? No matter what I do, I always find it weird and can't do it.]
[Wow, I didn't expect Liao Jiayan's look to be quite good. She can compete with Sister Meng in this round.]
[Suddenly I also had the idea of making one. My family, watching a variety show, seeing what they do and then I want to do the same thing, isn’t this a perfect show for planting seeds?]
[Why didn’t you release Coco’s finished product in the end? I really want to see what she made]
After everyone finished their own things, they started making tea sets in exchange for ingredients.
The program team gave everyone a set of molds for reference, and each group needed to make a teapot and six teacups.
After watching Lu Jinsen kneading the clay, Meng Chuyuan kneaded the clay directly before giving it to him: "I'll make the teapot, and you make the teacup."
The structure of a teapot is quite complicated. It not only needs a handle and a spout, but also a teapot lid.
Meng Chuyuan took on the most difficult task and left the rest to Lu Jinsen.
Lu Jinsen nodded, indicating that he had no objection to her arrangement, and then started to work.
Ting Jiu and Qi Yan were beginners. Although they had made some pottery pieces before, they were all simple clay bodies. Seeing that there were so many structures in a teapot, they were both at a loss.
"I want to make a cup." Ting Jiu took the initiative.
Qi Yan frowned unhappily. Seeing that Tingjiu was so much younger than her, she was too lazy to argue with the little brat.
She rolled up her sleeves and said defiantly, "It's just a teapot. What's so difficult about it?"
The sisters did not discuss it with each other, and Liao Jiayan started kneading the clay to make a teapot.
[In just a few minutes, my eyes saw this, but my mind was still stuck in the past. Sister Meng is still Sister Meng. She knows that the young master, a bronze man, is unreliable.]
[I'm afraid that after Sister Meng finishes making the teapot, the eldest master's teacup is not yet ready, and Sister Meng will have to make it again, hahaha]
[Xiaojiujiu, you know how to strike first, it's hilarious. Here, Xiaojiujiu says that being gentlemanly or not doesn't work, and neither does ladies first. I don't know how to make a teapot.]
[Waiting for Qi Yan's face-slapping segment. What's so difficult about this? Hahaha, you'll know later that manual work requires not only skills but also carefulness in all aspects.]
[As expected, the twin sisters have such good tacit understanding. They don't even need to talk, they just do it directly. Yanyan got some extra points for this part, but Keke feels that this part is not very prominent.]
Liao Jiake usually doesn’t have time to play with this kind of things, and the person who goes to make pottery with her friends is not her, but Liao Jiayan.
She felt extremely guilty just now, afraid that the audience would notice something.
However, the teacups she was making now were smaller, and she felt that they should be easier to control than before, so she regained her confidence and followed everyone's pace slowly.
This pottery-making competition successfully brought the audience into a slow-paced life.
Although the guests did not speak much during the whole process, the pottery-making process was very interesting.
In particular, Qi Yan's hands-on ability brought joy to the audience.
The spout of the pot she made was narrow at the head and wide at the tail, and it was flat, with indentations from her fingertips on it, and the water outlet was also very small.
She made the body of the pot at the beginning, and then attached the spout she had just made.
Ting Jiu looked at the teapot she made, and looked at her several times as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
He felt that Qi Yan didn't have much patience, so he didn't dare to say anything, for fear that if he made her angry and unhappy, she would quit.
After Qi Yan assembled the spout, she took a quick look and realized that she had attached it without cutting out a hole in the body of the pot.
Her eyes darkened a little, and she coldly removed the spout, picked up a knife and dug a hole in the pot.
[Sorry for laughing. I didn’t expect Qi Yan to be such a silly beauty hahaha]
[Actually, when she's not having an attack, she looks quite comfortable]
[Hearing the look in Jiu's eyes just now really made me laugh to death. I'm trying hard to restrain myself. It seems that this group put together from nowhere is quite interesting.]
[It's all pieced together, hahaha, sister in front, you have some language skills]
The body of the teapot made by Meng Chuyuan is really close to the real reference object placed on the table. She also made the spout and handle with great care, and then slowly pieced them together.
She and Liao Jiayan are both stylish and fast.
The photographer who was responsible for taking pictures of them couldn't bear to switch the camera to Lu Jinsen and Liao Jiake.
