At the beginning, in order to lose money, Zhen Qiong founded wahuang handmade company and asked people to hire wood carving and stone carving craftsmen to fill the vacancy in the statue.


    In Zhen Qiong''s opinion, both wood and stone carvings are works of art that require a lot of time and energy to complete.


    If you use good materials, both money and time costs will rise.


    Moreover, compared with the price of hand-made and assembled models that are close to the people, the price of statues can not be taken over by any glue guy.


    The statue can''t be sold, but the craftsmen have to be paid. Isn''t that money lost?


    But I didn''t expect that the company run by wahuang hasn''t been completed yet! The statue can be sold, and many people are looking for it. They even take the initiative to say that it doesn''t matter if it''s not carved so finely.


    It has a lot to do with it, okay!


    "How many carving masters do we have now?" Zhen Qiong asked.


    Things haven''t been out of control yet, so there is still room for rescue. Zhen Qiong feels that he must handle it carefully. Even if he can''t lose money, he has to make a lot less!


    "There are ten wood carving masters and eight stone carving masters."


    "Are they quick to carve a statue?"


    After thinking for a while, Li hubai said: "the masters took five days to finish the two statues at the competition site, but they worked together to carve them. If they carve alone, the time will be prolonged several times."


    "There are also different materials, which will affect the carving time. We are lucky to have ready-made good materials. Otherwise, even if the masters work together, it is estimated that it will take ten days and a half months."


    Zhen Qiong nodded and said, "let the masters finish the future statues alone. We attract craftsmen. In addition to filling the vacancy of the statues, we mainly want to inherit this craft."


    "If all the masters work together to carve, won''t their disciples have nothing to do? Without experience, what progress can we talk about? Let alone inheritance."


    Taking out the small book, Li hubai carefully wrote it down for a while and said, "President Zhen, I see. It''s no problem for the masters to carve separately. Anyway, they already have their own place to work."


    Zhen Qiong had thought of this for a long time, so he continued: "as for the materials for carving, just use..."


    Originally, Zhen Qiong intended to persuade the most people to retreat with the most expensive materials.


    Imagine a wood carving or stone carving, which costs tens of millions. The carving is still the role in the game and has no collection value. Even local tyrants probably have no desire to buy it!


    But unfortunately, his idea was warned by the system. Unless someone makes it to order, Zhen Qiong can''t turn ordinary statues into luxury goods.


    Moreover, it is not environmentally friendly. The reason why expensive wood and stone are expensive is that they are scarce in addition to their own characteristics.


    Rare things are expensive!


    At present, many expensive timbers are protection level plants, which grow slowly. If you want to cut down a tree, you need to go through layers of review.


    But even so, cases of illegal felling often occur every year. Although it is said that the prisoners were caught by the police after the incident, the trees were cut down, and there is no way to revive the prisoners.


    If Zhen Qiong asks the statues to use these woods, some people will take risks in order to benefit. It is estimated that the endangered trees will be extinct at that time.


    Stone is a non renewable resource, but the same is true. Moreover, the uncontrolled mining of stone will cause great damage to the mountains and have an extremely bad impact on the ecology.


    "I see! I''m wrong! Stop scolding! It''s silly to scold children again!"


    Listening to the sermon of systematic righteousness, Zhen Qiong quickly admitted his mistake. He was also on a whim and wanted to lose money through this method.


    But after learning that the consequences were serious, he resolutely gave up the idea. Zhen Qiong likes the vibrant nature more than reinforced concrete and polluted environment.


    "The materials for carving should be the materials that the masters usually use! Of course, they must be the best materials in this grade. At the same time, they should also be legal and environmental friendly."


    The wood used by wood carving masters is generally from the economic forest farm.


    In the economic forest farm, the growth cycle of the trees planted is very fast. Usually, they can grow to about 10 meters high in one or two years, and the diameter is almost the same as that of truck tires.


    As long as we plan well, we can produce tons of wood every year.


    With these timber injected into the market to meet the basic needs of the market, the protected forests can also live in peace.


    As for some expensive trees, many of them are cut down after natural death and flow into the market to make furniture or wood carvings to give full play to their final value.


    However, because there are many monks and few monks, trees like this can only be obtained by means of means, not just money.


    The stones are almost the same. They all come from state-owned or legally private quarries. Taking the area of longhuang country, it can be said that it is vast in land and resources.


    If we only mine ordinary stones, there will be no stone depletion in a billion years.


    Li hubai carefully recorded it in a small book and said, "President Zhen, I know, there will never be any black spots in this matter."


    "Also, every time a statue is sold, a 20% commission will be given to the carving master."


    "OK. Mr. Zhen."


    Although the treatment and welfare given by the dome god are good, generally speaking, the carpenters of wood and stone carving are not in a very good situation today.


    The main reason is that the machine is too developed, especially the recent rise of 3D printing technology.


    No matter it is wood carving or stone carving, or other carving, no matter how complex, the machine can make it.


    In the past, craftsmen studied for most of their lives to carve statues. Machines only needed to import drawings.


    There is also the speed and quantity of carving, which can not be matched by craftsmen adhering to the old craft.


    Therefore, under the impact of the carving factory, the craftsmen had no power to fight back.


    Moreover, these old crafts are hard work and can''t earn money. Young people don''t want to learn. The older generation of craftsmen are getting old, and there is a risk of breaking the inheritance at any time.


    Therefore, Zhen Qiong doesn''t mind giving craftsmen a commission on the original salary. As long as the industry can make money, even if the enclosure sprouts, he is not afraid to break the inheritance.


    It can not only lose money, but also make a little contribution to traditional crafts, killing two birds with one stone.


    As for those carving factories, there is no need to worry about whether they will follow the carving of statues.


    Long HuangGuo is very strict about copyright. If he doesn''t get the authorization, he will carve the IP role under the name of the dome god, which will cost him a fine or even imprisonment.


    In particular, the dome god also has a legal department that thinks about fighting eight wastelands all day.


    Carving factories, teams and individuals who dare to carve and sell statues privately or make money through other means are afraid that they will be sued for bankruptcy.


    "In addition, the accuracy of carving must be high. We must not ignore any detail in order to be in a hurry. If we find perfunctory..."


    When Zhen Qiong said this, Kun Yuxin, who was on the side, said, "it''s light to deduct money and heavy to dismiss. If there is any violation of law and discipline, it will be directly handed over to the legal department."


    Kun Yuxin''s tone was plain, but Li hubai could still hear the ruthlessness in his words.


    "Never make Mr. Kun angry in the future!"


    After admonishing himself in his heart, Li hubai quickly wrote it down in a small book.


    "By the way, Master Li CE isn''t the person in charge of the wahuang handmade company! Will it make him a little separated and incompetent to leave the statue to him?" Kun Yuxin asked.


    "Really. But I haven''t found a suitable candidate, so I can only let Lao Bai hold it first." Zhen Qiong asked Wen Waner to find talents in this field before.


    However, the candidates are too reliable. Zhen Qiong is afraid of making money, so he hasn''t decided on a candidate yet.


    "How about we hold a competition?" Kun Yuxin suggested.
