1992, Shanghai Yubao Craft Factory systematically studied for further study;
1993, engaged in jade carving and design work in Xinjiang Hotan Jade Development Co., Ltd.;
1996 Established Urumqi Qitai Jade Carving Factory independently as the director.
In 2002, Urumqi Qitai Jade Carving Factory and Xinjiang Laiyuan Economic and Trade Investment (Group) Co., Ltd. successfully established Xinjiang Laiyuan Jiude Culture Development Co., Ltd. and served as the company, with Fan Junmin as the general manager and director, becoming the governing unit of Xinjiang Gemstone Association; At the same time, sponsored Xinjiang Gemstone Association to successfully hold the first "Xinjiang Hetian Jade Stone Seminar" in Hotan City;
In 2006, Jiude Jade and Xinjiang Vocational University jointly run a school, offering jade carving design specialty, which was the first in the industry. 199 1, Fan Junmin studied jade carving technology with Zhao Min, the technical director of Xinjiang Jade Carving Factory, after graduating from the Department of Practical Art Design of Xinjiang Normal University. Under his personal guidance, Fan Junmin studied painting, sculpture and modeling theory in the Department of Practical Art of Xinjiang Normal University, and got a good practice. "
From 65438 to 0992, Fan Junmin followed Master Ma Xuewu to Shanghai Yubao Craft Factory for systematic study and further study. During this period, he was lucky enough to visit and study in the jade carving factory of Ni Weibin, a famous expert in Shanghai jade carving, and was lucky enough to get personal guidance from Wu Desheng and Zhang Yingfan, which benefited a lot.
1993, Fan Junmin returned to Xinjiang. Three years later, he founded his own factory-Qitai Jade Carving Factory. This experience has made a qualitative leap in his design concept and carving skills.
1996, Fan Junmin independently funded the establishment of Qitai Jade Carving Factory in Urumqi and served as the director. It is this experience that makes his design concept and carving skills complete a qualitative leap. These five years are full of hardships, just like a meat cleaver in the master's hand, which turned Fan Junmin from a rough jade into a shining jade. ...
Looking back on these five years, Fan Junmin can only be described as bitter and tired. That year, Fan Junmin bought six jade carving machines with 35,000 yuan borrowed from four places and started his own business. At first, there was no market for products, so it was difficult for him to help his seven brothers with a salary of 500 yuan per month. Under heavy pressure, he accepted a risky order-to make a batch of jade carvings for a guest in Taiwan Province province, and the contract agreed to pay after satisfaction. 13 works took half a year. His honesty and excellent product quality touched the discerning guests in Taiwan Province Province, and he successfully signed the second business with an order of 60 pieces at a time through acceptance. In recent years, Fan Junmin's jade carving works, which he created and participated in, have won many awards. With the spirit of unswerving commitment to his career, combined with his own technical advantages and market demand, he creatively embarked on a design road. In the process design, he inherited the relatively atmospheric style of China court jade, and changed the pattern at the same time. He skillfully used the patterns of various historical periods. In the pursuit of artistic conception, he pays more attention to the leisure and painting of literati. The hardest part is making. He pursues exquisite workmanship and pays attention to meticulous carving. When treating a piece of jade, Fan Junmin will cherish and take it seriously with the feeling that this is the last piece of material.
Fan Junmin said that it is fundamental to make jade carvings and understand the materials. But there are fewer and fewer good hetian jade. Therefore, as a jade sculptor, when you get every stone, you should handle it carefully, so that every stone will not leave any regrets when it goes out from your own hands, and every jade carving work will become a boutique. This is the hope of the jade carving industry. If you want to make achievements in the jade carving industry, you should not overemphasize the craft, but should pay more attention to the charm of Hetian jade itself.
Fan Junmin has a creative principle: "simplicity". He said that a jade carving is a work of art, and its beauty lies in its shape, color or artistic conception, or both, and artistic conception is a very important aspect of the overall evaluation of jade. The design and conception of jade carving should be based on jade, and the basic requirements of jade carving are "taking materials from different disciplines" and "acting according to materials". Use the simplest pattern to show the natural elegance of Hetian jade to the maximum extent. The real soul of a jade carving work lies in the jade itself. The natural charm of jade can only be displayed when the patterns carved by hand complement the natural jade. He said that successful works do not blindly pursue the high difficulty of technology, and carve complex patterns on jade, which is not a good artistic realm. The design is too complicated, which damages the charm of jade itself and is also a craftsman's behavior. Craftsmen pay attention to the shaping of jade, while masters pay attention to how to show the natural beauty of Hetian jade.
