Shiki Ishii took the risk of almost being torn apart by the girls and finally squeezed to the front of the crowd. He ignored the murderous gazes around him. Such a scene was completely a piece of cake for him. The world was big, and the money was the biggest.
After squeezing to the front of the crowd, he finally understood why there were so many people watching. After seeing the exquisite wood carvings on the table, he was surprised and sincerely praised.
To be able to see such a wooden sculpture at a comic convention was indeed worth the trip. It felt like it was not a comic convention but an art exhibition.
He walked over, picked up his camera, and took many photos of the wood carvings. After carefully studying the wood carvings, he felt even more surprised. This was completely the work of a master!
"Excuse me, how much are these wood carvings?" he asked after looking at them.”
"Ten thousand yen in the front row, twenty thousand yen in the middle, and fifty thousand yen in the last row.”Watanabe bowed and smiled. He did not lose his manners at all. Although the sales were very hot now and it was obvious that they were in a seller's market, he could not lose his manners towards his customers!
"Hmm? So cheap?" Shiki Ishii was stunned for a moment. With this woodcarving technique, it would be an insult to the craftsmanship if it was not sold for 100,000 yen. He immediately said with regret,"Please help me wrap these three wood carvings, thank you.”
"Alright, I'll charge you a total of 80,000 yen. Please take it well.”Watanabe skillfully wrapped the wooden carving and handed it over.
"Thank you. May I ask who carved these wood carvings?”Shiki Ishii asked as he put away the bag.
"It's Uesugi-san. Ah, the one sitting over there.”
Shiki Ishii looked in the direction that Watanabe was pointing at. An extremely handsome boy was sitting there, busy with something.
The moment he saw the boy, his years of experience told him that big news was in the bag!
No wonder there were so many people here. No wonder there were so many girls. It made perfect sense!
Even with his decades of experience, this kid was extremely handsome, especially his temperament. He really didn't look like an ordinary person. Compared to him, those idols on TV could be thrown back and remolded. Coupled with his sculpting skills, he might be the son of a famous artist. He was very explosive. It would be a crime not to give him a close-up!
And it seemed that no one else in the industry had noticed. As long as they got an interview, the sales of this magazine would definitely explode!
He held back his excitement and squeezed through the crowd, immediately interviewing Uesugi Kenichi.
"Hello, is it convenient for you to interview me?”
Kenichi Uesugi looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of him and put down the carving knife in his hand.
Seeing that Watanabe and the others could handle it and the sales were fast, he took advantage of this time to carve a few more. According to this trend, it might not be long before they were sold out. After all, he had only brought less than 40 wood carvings with him, and nearly half of them had been sold.
"No problem. What do you want to ask?”Kenichi Uesugi did not refuse. It was a good thing to have an interview. It could increase his popularity and help him sell his wood carvings at a higher price.
"Is it convenient for you to introduce yourself?”
"Sure. My name is Uesugi Kenichi. I'm 16 years old this year and I'm currently studying in Year One at Yamato Private Academy.”
Shiki Ishii nodded and was even more surprised. Although he already knew that Ken Uesugi looked young, he didn't expect him to be so young. He was even more talented than he had imagined. This made him even more satisfied.
"You carved these yourself, right?”
"That's right."
"Si Guoyi, Shang Shanjun is indeed a genius. To have such skills at such a young age, you must be a famous sculptor, right? Is it convenient for you to tell me?"
"I'm not from a famous sculptor.”Kenichi Uesugi chuckled.
"Oh! Then, which great teacher did he learn from?”Shiki Ishii became even more interested.
"No, I just casually practiced it myself.”
"Hiss ~~ Did you practice it yourself?!" Shiki Ishii was shocked. You're telling me that you trained yourself to achieve such a level? Although I know you're a genius, I didn't say you're a monster, right? Can you really train to such a level by yourself?!
" Then, I'm sure Uesugi-kun must have suffered a lot. Under the circumstances where no one is guiding him, he still has such amazing skills. Under this unparalleled talent, there is a hidden hard work that ordinary people can't reach. This is the only way for Uesugi-kun to carve such a master-level work at such a young age. It's really admirable. Please accept my bow!”
Shiki Ishii became more and more excited as he spoke. No matter how talented he was, he had no one to guide him at this age. How much hardship did he have to endure to practice such a skill? What kind of perseverance did he have to complete such a thing? Such a person was worthy of his admiration!
As for whether it was real or fake, there was no need for him to distinguish between them. Furthermore, he did not believe that it was fake. The blessings brought by a master teacher or an inheritance were extremely shocking. There was no need to hide it.
The girls who were watching the drama became even more excited after hearing Shiki Ishii's words. It was as if Kenichi Uesugi had suffered a lot. The light in their eyes grew brighter, and their faces were filled with pity. They wanted to immediately rub the noodles into their arms and comfort them.
Uesugi Kenichi: "???"
