"Manufacturers from every city in the empire, who are the treasures who have become the shining stars of this expo, let us wait and see when the expo closes!"

The opening ceremony of the Kyoto Wood Crafts Fair was presided over by the two hosts with great passion.

……

Not only are there many manufacturers and merchants participating in the island country expo, but at this moment, Kyoto TV is also broadcasting the grand occasion in some of the expos.

Wood products are very popular among the people of the island country.

They are also a country with a high consumption of wood products.

Their floors, their shoes, clogs, and many of their daily necessities like to be made of wood.

Nowadays, with the great improvement of the living standards of the residents after the war.

There is a strong demand for wooden handicrafts, not only want to buy and use, but also want to buy collectible, and the fair is to hold awards to improve the taste.

Buyers visited the booths and placed orders one after another.

The TV station is also popularizing the knowledge of wood carving handicrafts to the people of the island country.

"Now more and more people like wood carving handicrafts, but for the collection of this matter, the most important thing is to see, in the process of collection, many of our gentlemen are not afraid to buy expensive, afraid of buying the wrong, then the collection of wood carving handicrafts has no appreciation at all, we know that the material of wood carving is very special, compared to other ceramics, metal, jade those handicrafts, there is not easy to preserve the weakness, but this weakness is also its advantage on the other hand. ”

At this time at the fair.

The eight major manufacturers carved up most of the island country's wood handicraft market and obtained many orders.

The best wood crafts competition held an expert group discussion.

This time, Mitsui Hachiei selected Zhang Gaoxing's dragon Buddhist shrine as a representative work of the Wood Crafts Department of Sumitomo Corporation.

Expert Seminars.

"I think that the wood carving works from Shenri Co., Ltd. can be like a clear spring water that can lead me to a strange and bright spiritual world, and I think that the wood carving crafts of Shenri Co., Ltd. can be a gold medal. ”

"I think that the wood carving crafts of Kenki Co., Ltd. are worthy of the honor of the gold medal. ”

"Our wood carving crafts from Hokkaido also have the strength to compete for the championship. ”

"The products of our Osaka Wood Products and Wood Carving Crafts Company are not bad!"

……

"You have only tasted the products of the eight major manufacturers, and the other selected products have not yet been tasted, so this conclusion may not be made earlier. ”

Some judges were dissatisfied that they were bought by merchants and directly expressed their dissatisfaction.

As people in this industry, some experts are like Spiegel in their hearts, these experts have a good relationship with the eight major manufacturers, and even have economic dealings, they naturally recommend the manufacturers they represent, and the cat greasy must have aroused the disgust and dissatisfaction of many honest experts.

The competition set up three awards of gold, silver and bronze, one gold award, three silver awards, and six bronze awards.

"I don't think there is any need to look at the products of other manufacturers, do they have masters? It would be good if they could produce high-quality products, they couldn't make classic products. ”

"Showa Tianjun, what you said is inevitably biased, although our masters in the handicraft and art industry represent high-quality products, but it does not mean that they must represent the first, there is a saying in Shenzhou called the talented people of the country. ”

"I think what Morita said is right, we still taste all the products recommended by the manufacturers first, and score them one by one. ”

In the past, it was all about a certain work from the eight major manufacturers, and then the experts voted.
