Chapter 110: Go upstairs in twelve minutes
"Is there such a saying?" the second senior brother was also curious.
"Yes, simply using the zodiac to show Chinese elements will seem too simple, but if you directly reproduce the famous beast head of the Old Summer Palace in the collection world, the collection value and future appreciation space will immediately come up. "It's not a matter of a day or two to buy a watch and buy a favorite watch.
Mai Mai Mai went on to add: "Top Chinese collectors all have the desire to bring the 12 zodiac signs back to China. My grandfather had such an idea, and the other four could not be found, and if he could find it, he would definitely take pictures and donate them to the country. ”
The twelve bronze beast heads of the Old Summer Palace, after being lost overseas, eight of them were recovered one after another.
In 2000, 2003 and 2007, the head of the ox, the head of the tiger, the head of the monkey, the head of the pig, and the head of the horse, were rescued by patriots and returned to China.
It also allows collectors all over the world to see the determination of patriots to recover the national treasures plundered by the British and French forces during the Opium War.
In 2013, inspired by these patriots, the French Pinault family donated rat and rabbit heads to China free of charge.
The twelve animal heads of the Old Summer Palace are world-famous in the collection world.
To this day, the whereabouts of four animal heads - snake head, chicken head, dog head, and sheep head - are unknown.
The 12 animal head watches are customized by European brands and then sent back to the Chinese market, in the sense of collection, there is a feeling of taking the animal head home.
It symbolically allows the national treasures that have been left behind to return to their homeland
At the beginning of the purchase, I thought of the zodiac signs, but I didn't think about how this watch would sell better and be more collectible in the future.
The 12 animal heads are just one of the 12 versions of Chinese legends and stories of the Chinese zodiac, but they are clearly the most collectible.
Grandpa Jin Qiang is a craftsman, Uncle Jin Da is a businessman, and Jin Ran, who seems to be independent, will actually be a combination of a craftsman and a businessman.
This one, it is not surprising to buy and buy.
"I almost forgot that our little sister used to be a collector of watches. "The third child didn't buy and buy so much, and he purely felt that the craftsmanship of these miniature carved copper heads was lifelike.
"Third Senior Brother, what good will it do you to uncover the bloody scars of the little junior sister?" Mai Mai Mai protested to Tang Yifan.
"If it's not good, you can't say it?" As long as Jin Ran appeared on the first floor of the studio, Tang Yifan's combat value would be a little high.
"Yes. However, there are still advantages to not being a collector, although now I am a small craftsman, I can't afford to buy a limited edition of twenty-eight twelve beast heads, but I can touch and sigh before they are embedded in the surface, and participate in the process of its birth, and this alone has won the past self who can only buy finished products. "I was attracted by the details of the miniature carved bronze head.
"Twelve. Jin Ran's voice sounded again as if it had come from another time and space.
"What twelve?" "Buybuy's eyes are so focused that their ears don't understand.
"Limited to twelve. Jin Ran repeated.
"Ah, there are only twelve, wouldn't that be more expensive than all the Knights of the Round Table, but I'm poor now, or my pocket money will be ruined." Boss, are you coming back at this time because the Twelve Beast Heads Watch has already been made? Can I take a sneak peek at what it looks like in its entirety? I definitely don't take pictures or send spy photos, just take a look, is it okay?"
"You go upstairs to me in twelve minutes. Jin Ran gave a precise time, and went to the open work area on the second floor as before.
"Little junior sister, aren't you most afraid that Jin Ran will summon you, why did you send it to the door today?"
"Well, if I could see Roger Dubuis every day in limited editions, I could be summoned every day. "When Maimaimai was an apprentice, she was always trying to be an invisible person, but she never learned how to hide all the breath in her body like Jin Ran.
Just like just now, if Jin Ran didn't speak, the people in the maintenance department held an "academic conference" would not have found out at all when the boss came in.
The second senior brother and the third senior brother both gave Maimaimai a look of self-begging.
"What's wrong? Why do you see that I feel like I'm going to die?"
"It's not going to die, but it's pretty much the same, that's the kind of feeling that my wife and I apologized and said I was wrong, and then she asked you what you were wrong. "The parable of the third senior brother is vivid and vivid enough.
But she didn't want to discuss technical issues, but just to see the production process of the Twelve Beast Heads watch in advance, and she didn't think about becoming a watchmaker, so she couldn't ask step by step, right?
There is a specialization in the art industry, and it is impossible for Jin Ran not to let her continue to stay in the studio because she doesn't know how to make watches, right?
Although he is no longer the boss of buying, he can speak well and argue about this, and it will not change too dramatically because of whether the family has money or not.
…………………………
"I was a little surprised that you would stay. Jin Ran's opening remarks are not the same as what Maimaimai thought.
"Shouldn't I stay?" Mai Mai Mai does not remember that he has a "stain" other than the incident of asking Mai Lego to answer the phone.
"I have always thought that you are not too long-term person, and you should not choose to be a watch repair technician, and the senior brother also told me that your income as a part-time lecturer is higher than working directly in the studio. After several strong protests from Lu Yiyang, although Jin Ran did not change his original intention and did not make an exception for Maimaimai, he was more or less apologized by the senior brother.
After all, he also understands the current situation of Maimaimai.
But you know, the studio is not a charity.
Jin Ran didn't think there was anything wrong with his approach.
If he feels that it is unreasonable, he can not come to work, and he does not have the opportunity to choose between buying and buying.
"I used to be compensatory, and I had a lot of capital to do what I loved. Now, you can only do one line of love. As soon as you come back, you won't need to go to class everywhere, and in this case, my income from teaching will be zero. I need a stable job now, and the temporary explanation of the high and low salary is naturally not in my consideration. "Buy, buy, buy and talk very realistically.
It's just a choice after weighing the pros and cons, and there is no "noble sentiment" that doesn't care about personal income for the sake of the studio.
