Chapter 321: The Beauty of Machinery

β€œ...... It's kind of cool. ”

Ning Yan whispered in Chinese.

Yan Zhi, who followed Ning Yan's line of sight, pursed her lips and nodded.

He whispered in his heart: "If it weren't for that, would I dare to bring you, Mr. Ning?"

Thinking about it, I made a sound that was too difficult all over my body.

It's really hard to be his secretary to Ning Yan.

It's really stressful.

Grievance.

But I don't say!

When Yan Zhi's heart was still thinking nonsense, Ning Yan's voice suddenly came from her ears and into her heart.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Why is this still inexplicably wronged?"

Yan Zhi: "......"

"You think too much, look at the watch with peace of mind, this kind of independent watchmaking brand, although there are many in the Jura Mountains, but there are not many characteristics. ”

Yan Zhi, who quietly diverted the topic, quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Man, your nose is like a dog!"

"Humph!"

"Angry!"

"I used to be the boss, what's the matter, now I even have to take care of what I think?!"

β€œ......”

The more I think about it, the more angry I get, the more I think about it, the more I think about it, the more I ...... The gas is gone.

Over there, Ning Yan had already attracted most of his attention by the various machinery in the workshop.

Daniel also did not hesitate to introduce his proud works.

Later, under Daniel's introduction, Ning Yan understood the charm of the independent watchmaking brand 'Time Machine'.

The dial changes over time.

Every second is different.

Daniel, a former senior mechanic at Boeing, was born a mechanical genius.

After becoming interested in watchmaking as an amateur, he studied with several senior masters, and then he was out of control.

Become an independent watchmaker full-time.

As a demanding watchmaker, Daniel even made the machines that produce watch parts himself.

While walking, Ning Yan asked casually, "How much can one person do this?"

Daniel said indifferently: "At most, there are thirty or forty a year." ”

Interestingly, because each part is made and assembled by Daniel, and because of the extreme demands on watchmaking, each piece can be said to be unique.

Ning Yan could sense Daniel's paranoid enthusiasm for watchmaking.

You can also see it from the furnishings in the workshop.

Scrapped parts are everywhere.

Daniel also recognized NG from the big red flag, so in conversation, there was little prevarication.

Between the words, he also expressed his feelings of honor for Ning Yan's visit.

β€œ......”

After all, he is also the one who wants to eat.

Although making watches is just a hobby, making money is not the goal.

"Are these exhibits new this year?"

Ning Yan pointed to the watch on the table and asked.

Daniel shook his head and explained with a smile: "It's not a showpiece, these are the watches that customers have ordered. ”

The time machine has also been developing for a few years, and because of its uniqueness, coupled with the exhibition of clocks and watches, it will naturally attract the rich from all over the world.

There are also customers.

For example, Saudi Arabia and Russia.

Daniel showed Ning Yan the uniqueness of several watches that have evolved from the brand to the present.

Each model has a completely different way of showing time.

The design of the complex dial combined with steampunk is always easy to capture the hearts of men.

What's even more powerful is that the dial changes over time.

"It takes a lot of inspiration to update the models, plus there are orders in the queue, so there have only been four updates over the years. ”

Daniel said with regret.

It seems that he still has a lot of inspiration in his head, but he doesn't have time to carve it, so he doesn't dare to take it out.

After all, he is purely handmade, and the production time of a single watch is basically more than 300 hours.

Add to that the extremely complex design......

Ning Yan took over with emotion: "So this may be the regrettable beauty of the world." ”

His heart was full of emotion.

In the past three days, Ning Yan has visited the world-famous big brand factory.

Including the first and second sales of labor and Europe.

It also includes Patek Philippe, a brand that can be listed in a single class, and Breguet, which has profoundly influenced the current art of watchmaking.

Daniel's workshop is the most humble, smallest, but also the most design-filled workshop he has ever seen.

Perhaps that's why the Jura Mountains are a mecca for many watch brands.

There will always be people who are in the watchmaking profession.

The bloodline has a long history.

When Ning Yan looked at the various watches one by one, he suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Daniel, the watch you made should make many people look at it with envy." ”

"Of course. Daniel said proudly.

Although the prices of the watches he made have risen over time, they have never exceeded a large threshold.

That is, 300,000 RMB.

......

After leaving Daniel's independent watchmaking workshop, Ning Yan did not go to the other larger independent watchmaking factory that Yan Zhi mentioned.

Instead, they returned directly to the city of Geneva.

"More than half an hour has passed, but I didn't expect the watches to arrive, I'm still on the way, and I'm completely sorry for my big effort to acquire the watch factory. ”

Ning Yan smiled and complained to Yan Zhi.

"I don't know why, but suddenly I don't have such a strong expectation. ”

As he said this, Ning Yan's gaze inevitably looked at the newly replaced 'Time Machine' variocurve on his wrist.

Dark unique dial.

Oversized Côtes de Genève finishing.

With only one hand on the entire dial, the unique personality is undoubtedly extremely eye-catching.

However, when the hands are swinging with one arm, the dial on the inner layer also rotates, changing from moment to moment.

This is also the watchmaking idea that Daniel has always been thinking.

Yan Zhi pursed her lips: "Didn't you see another missing piece?"

β€œ......”

Dozens of minutes later, Ning Yan finally put on her Jaeger-LeCoultre Tourbillon Westminster Minute Repeater Blue Enamel Skeleton watch.

The subtlety of the tourbillon's rotation can be seen from the front alone.

and the subtlety of the movement.

"The charm of the machine, that's how fascinating it is. Ning Yan praised.

There are only two words in my heart.

It's worth it!

In contrast to Patek Philippe's conservatism in achieving the same function, Jaeger-LeCoultre is undoubtedly bold and aggressive.

1050 parts, when the four reeds and four hammers of Westminster Abbey bell music sounded, the wonderful came, Ning Yan sighed: "Just hearing this sound, it is worth a million!"

"......" Yan Zhi, who has no hobby for watches, also nodded: "It's really good." ”

After Ning Yan finished admiring the watch, Yan Zhi, who had left just now, walked back.

"There was a little bit of a small deal in the acquisition of Jaeger-LeCoultre's shares. ”

β€œ......”

"What do you mean, you can't buy shares?" Ning Yan was shocked.

It was the first time he had encountered such a legendary thing.

Ning Affairs Management Office came out, and there was never such a word as "no" or "no".

Yan Zhi shook her head and explained: "It's not that it can't be acquired, but it's that Audemars Piguet is a little troublesome." ”

"Audemars Piguet CEO Bennacias once again cordially invites you to a reception hosted by Audemars Piguet in collaboration with Aston Martin, and he himself flew to Malaga, Spain, this morning to prepare for the feast. ”

"So, if you want Audemars Piguet's Jaeger-LeCoultre shares, you have to make a trip?" Ning Yan asked rhetorically.

Yan Zhi: "......"

Broken bowls.
