MTL - A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot-Chapter 312 Golden tire gold wire
Chapter 312 Golden tire and gold thread
Not only the program crew were stunned, but Huang Xiaoming and the others also stared wide-eyed, with disbelief on their faces.
Although their net worth is basically more than a few million, it is still a bit shocking to see a full ten kilograms of gold in front of them.
This is nearly five million!
Even in first-tier cities, you can buy a small house.
This is really going out on the street with a suite!
But Li Yi who saw the gold bar was very calm, grabbed a gold bar, weighed it, put it back in the box, and then rushed to Guan Yue and asked with a smile: "Mr. Guan, I told the program team that you don't want to be on camera. , they will avoid your angle."
On the way here, Li Yi told Guan Xue that he would bring the program crew to shoot.
Guan Yue has no objection to the filming, and he also knows that Li Yi will broadcast live.
He just said that he didn't want to appear on the screen, and hoped that he would not be photographed.
It's very simple, as long as you fix the shooting angle and avoid his position when shooting, you won't be able to shoot him.
On the way here, Li Yi has already explained to the program crew, and the cameraman also said that there is no problem.
"Thank you."
Guan Yue thanked him with a smile, and then asked, "Is this all the gold you need? If you need anything else, you can just tell me."
Li Yi smiled when he heard the words, shook his head and said: "No need, I have already taken care of other things that need to be used."
As he spoke, he turned around and waved to Wu Lei: "Xiao Lei, come here."
Wu Lei didn't know, so he walked up quickly, glanced at Guan Yue, and asked Li Yi curiously, "Brother Yi, what's wrong?"
Li Yi closed the suitcase, fastened the safety buckle, and handed it to him, beckoning: "Help carry it."
Wu Lei was taken aback when he heard the words, and took the suitcase in a daze. He felt his hand sink, and then came back to his senses, and hurriedly asked: "Ah? I'm carrying it? What if it breaks?"
Li Yi smiled and didn't take it seriously: "Real gold is not afraid of fire, but also afraid of falling? It's okay, this is a gift from Mr. Guan, at worst, I can get some from him."
Wu Lei looked at Guan Yue at the side, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he looked.
Suddenly, he thought of something, and asked in surprise, "Are you Mr. Guan Yue from the Guan Group?"
Guan Yue nodded with a smile when he heard the words.
Wu Lei said excitedly: "Wow! Mr. Guan, I have watched your documentary. Back then, you started from scratch and built a Guan Group worth hundreds of billions. It's amazing! You are my idol!"
Hearing his compliment, Guan Yue's smile became a little embarrassed.
The documentary Wu Lei mentioned was made when he was young, in order to make money for himself, so he found someone to shoot it for him.
In that documentary, he seemed to be a national entrepreneur for the country and the people.
Later, several TV stations bought the copyright, and used it to show it on TV several times, which attracted a lot of praise.
But he felt ashamed and a little guilty, so he spent money to buy the copyright back.
I didn’t expect this kid named Wu Lei to have watched that documentary.
"Fortunately, documentaries are also movies, so they can't be taken as real."
He said politely, and subconsciously glanced at Li Yi.
Li Yi knew his details, so he wasn't sure whether Wu Lei was really complimenting him, or whether he was satirizing him because of what Li Yi said.
Seeing this, Li Yi patted Wu Lei's shoulder with a smile, and signaled: "Stop flattering me here, hurry up and get busy with business first."
Hearing what he said, Guan Yue felt relieved.
It seems that Wu Lei's words were really unintentional.
But after reassuring, his mood also became bad.
It was this kind of feeling of being praised face to face, but feeling guilty, like a thief, that made him spend a lot of money to support Li Yi's cloisonne craftsmanship in re-engraving the Wanshou Wujiang Bowl.
What happened back then was his lifelong heart disease, like a thorn, which has troubled him for decades, even if he became a billionaire, he couldn't cover it up.
On the contrary, as I got older, the thorn got deeper and deeper.
For a person like him, money is nothing, what he pursues is posthumous fame.
He didn't want to bring this heart disease into the coffin, and then be named and scolded after death.
So, before he died, he had to find a way to solve this heart disease.
If it can be solved for a little money, it is undoubtedly the best.
Seeing that Li Yi led Wu Lei and the program crew into Liulichang, Guan Yue turned his head and saw that the driver had already unloaded an electric wheelchair from the car behind and sent it behind him.
After sitting down, he steered the wheelchair and drove towards the factory.
Looking at the back of Li Yi in front of him, Guan Xue felt a little annoyed, and couldn't help complaining in a low voice: "This kid is too crazy."
But Guan Yue didn't take it seriously: "Only one is proud of one's talent, I hope he can succeed!"
From his point of view, he hoped that Li Yi could successfully reproduce it.
After all, this is the closest he is to solving his heart disease.
If Li Yi can succeed, then he really has a chance to solve that heart problem.
In front of the crowd, Li Yi had already entered the gate of Liulichang, and Lao Yu, the head of Liulichang, was already waiting at the gate.
Guan Yue had already told him about the situation, so he was not surprised to see Li Yi and his party coming in mightily, and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, Director Yu."
Li Yi shook hands with him with a smile, and asked, "Have all my things arrived?"
"When it arrives, it will be put in the warehouse for you."
Factory Manager Yu greeted with a smile: "I'll take you to see it."
After talking about renting equipment with the factory director, Li Yi ordered a batch of copper plates and sent them directly to Liulichang.
He originally planned to use those copper plates to try to reproduce a wave, to practice his skills.
The value of cloisonné ware is divided into upper, middle and lower grades according to the materials used.
The highest class is gold thread with gold body, the middle class is silver thread with silver body, and the bottom class is copper thread with copper body.
The Wanshou Wujiang Bowl is a set of the highest-quality utensils with golden tires and gold threads. Both the cost and the manufacturing process are higher than other cloisonné utensils.
So, if you want to reproduce the exact same Wanshou Wujiang Bowl, you have to use gold tires and gold wires.
With Li Yi's current financial resources, he can't afford gold tires and gold threads for the time being.
So when he learned that Guan Yue intended to fund his remake, he directly asked for gold.
A set of ten Wanshou Wujiang bowls, ranging from large to small, with different ring diameters and a lot of gold used.
Gold has a high density and a heavy weight. Li Yi only needs ten kilograms, which is considered polite. During the production process, it may not be enough.
After you have gold, those copper plates can be temporarily put away.
However, Li Yi followed him to the warehouse, because some of the tools he bought were also sent here.
The production process of cloisonné is basically handmade.
When processing the raw material gold, silver and copper plates, large metal scissors are needed to cut and cut out the required shape.
When making a tire shape, you need a hammer to shape the material.
In addition, there are tweezers for filigreeing, droppers for blue dotting, planing shovel, etc.
In the warehouse, the tools Li Yi bought were all put together on a pallet.
"The tools are here, and this."
As the factory manager said, he took a large gold-melting crucible from the tray next to it and placed it on the tool tray.
Seeing this, Li Yi stepped forward to pick up the crucible, weighed it, and said with a smile: "Director Yu, which stove is the one I rented? I'll melt the gold first."
