中：早年創業時，黃耀如的店裡原本有幾位聘用的師傅，他們邊做邊學，所有的技術都由黃耀如來教，我們必須知道一點，在這個行業，師徒之間的關係，大都是老闆與伙計的關係，店裡頭的師傅一邊工作也能從老師傅身上學會技巧，無奈有一次，店裡的三位師傅竟然說好了同時間辭職，當時有很多工作需人手趕工，差一點就過不了關，幸好大兒子及媳婦現學現做，總算渡過了危機，而也從那時候，南輝木匾雕刻處變成了家族企業… 
現在店裡的師傅全都是自己家人，技術來源當然都是黃耀如老師傅教的，如果問他們怎麼學的，答案都是從小看到大，看著看著就會了，我們想這就是傳統技藝學習的方法，必須長期耳濡目染…
英：When they started their business in the early days, Huang Yaoru’s shop originally had several hired craftsmen. They studied by doing. All the techniques were taught by Huang Yaoru. You must know that in this industry, the relationship between teachers and apprentices is mostly the relationship between the boss and the hirelings. The apprentice can learn the skills from the master while working. But one day,  the three hired craftsmen agreed among themselves to quit at the same time. At that time, there was a lot of work to be rushed, the situation seemed hopeless.  Fortunately, the eldest son and the daughter-in-law were just learning how to do the work, and so they pitched in and the crisis passed. From then on, the Nanhui Plaque Carving Shop became a family business...
Now the artisans in the shop are all family. The source of the technique is of course taught by Huang Yaoru. If you ask them how they learned, the answer is that one starts by observing, from a young age.  By watching for a long time, one will learn. We think this is how traditional skills are learned. You must spend a long time watching and listening...
中：黃耀如老師傅從不吝習把滿身的技藝傳授給別人，他無奈的說：「現在的年輕人，都怕吃苦，學不住呀！」，後曾有年輕人登門要學，想不到短短三天就打退堂鼓，更有中年大叔一開始信心滿滿要學，二個小時候就受不了了！
英：Master Huang Yaoru never held back from passing on his skills to others. But he said helplessly: "Nowadays young people are afraid of hardships and can’t learn!" There had been some young people who wanted to study with him, but didn’t last more than three days. One time, one middle-aged man said he was determined to learn, but stopped after just two hours, said he couldn’t stand it!中：看著老師傅一雙佈滿傷痕的手，還有一隻手指頭以前不小心被切斷了，老師傅說長期雕刻木頭，使得手指頭彎彎曲曲的，而他明白這應該也是現在年輕人望而卻步的原因吧！不過黃耀如老師傅把這些傷痕視為他榮耀的代價。
英：Looking at the master's hand with scars, and a finger that was accidentally cut off,the master said that after he had carved wood for a long time, his fingers become crooked, and he can understand why young people are now discouraged to take on this craft. However, Master Huang Yaoru regarded these scars as the price of his glory.
中：老師傅也說這種手工製作木匾的行業慢慢地會變成落日行業，不太有人想學也是正常的，一切不能強求。
英：The master also said that the industry of hand-made plaques will slowly become a sunset industry. It is not surprising that people don’t want to learn. “Nothing can be forced,”he said.
中：像這次我們小朋友團隊來拜訪他，想學什麼，他都很熱心地示範，完全不藏私，畢竟他一身的技術可不是說想學就能學得走的～
英；Like this time our team of children came to visit him and wanted to learn something. He was very enthusiastic to demonstrate to us, hiding nothing at all. After all, his technique is not something you can just pick up quickly.
中：管黃耀如老師傅已經是86歲的高齡了，但他的身體狀況很好，活力旺盛，笑口常開，什麼事情都是自己來，他現在最享受的就是每天都能夠工作，他的生活很有規律，每天清晨3:00就起床了，到隔壁的玄良亭參拜，早上開始工作到中午，傍晚再工作到晚上。
我們團隊覺得，比起工藝技術來說，黃耀如老師傅可以傳承的是他豁達的人生觀，如同他說的：「別人在休息在玩，而我在工作，卻不羡慕別人，這就是真正的想得開。」，他還說他最棒的作品就是能讓妥託者滿意的都是他最好的作品。他這種以工作為生活及做到人家滿意的心是值得我們學習的。
英：Despite the fact that Huang Yaoru is already 86 years old, his physical condition is very good, his vitality strong, his smile open, and everything is done by himself. The most enjoyable thing he can do now is to work every day. His daily routine is very regularly: get up at 3:00 in the morning every day, go to the Xuanliang Pavilion next door for a quick worship, start work in the morning until noon, and work in the evening until night.
Our team feels that compared to craftsmanship, Master Huang Yaoru can pass on his positive outlook on life, as he said: "Other people are at rest, while I am at work, but I don't envy others. This is the true meaning of having the right attitude towards everything." He also said that his best works are the ones that make his clients fully satisfied. Those he consider his best works. His attitude for working and living with satisfaction is worth learning.
