The documentary is popular, and the characters in it are all popular, and even the "royal cats" who appear on the screen and are only responsible for selling cuteness are talked about by fans.

What shocked the audience in the film is the "fatal temperament" of the craftsman, which is undoubtedly a spirit that has existed for thousands of years but has been lost for a long time from the present, that is, the spirit of craftsmanship.

Craftsmen are called craftsmen because they possess a certain skill, which can be perfected through the accumulation of time. Behind the skills, there is a deeper spiritual connotation.

In the first episode, Wang Jin, Wang Youliang, Wang Wusheng and other masters from the main perspective used their indifferent temperament that they have honed for decades to interpret what is called the spirit of Chinese craftsmen, which made the audience all moved after watching it.

Each of them can only protect these relics for a short time at most, but the relics have been passed down by the profession of generations of departed cultural relics restorers.

We are often impressed by the Japanese craftsmanship spirit, and feel for the rigor and dedication of the Germans, but we never thought that in our country, across the gate of the Forbidden City, there is such a group of people with the spirit of real craftsmen, who dedicate their lives and bring out apprentices, with their own perseverance, guarding this heavy and precious cultural relics in the Forbidden City, passed on from generation to generation.

The response on the Internet is very good, and "I Repair Cultural Relics in the Forbidden City" is still continuing its supernatural journey, and the second episode continues to be broadcast, leading the audience to have a deeper understanding of the life and work of cultural relics restorers in the Forbidden City.

If in the first episode, the master showed the audience the ingenuity of the predecessors, then in the second episode, it was more about the inheritance of the new generation.

In 2006, Qu Feng, who graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, entered the Palace Museum, apprenticed in accordance with the rules of cultural relics restoration, and began to study the restoration of wooden cultural relics, which has been 10 years now.

What they repaired this time is a woodcarved Buddha statue of the Liaojin period, after the years before last, this woodcarved Buddha statue has been peeled off with gold paint and remains, the texture of the wooden tire is exposed, and two fingers are missing, and the audience feels pain when they look at it.

There is still a master in the carpentry group, but the section chief is Qu Feng of the younger generation, and he is undoubtedly one of the representatives of the younger generation.

Accompanied by the narrator's insights, following the camera, the audience is taken to the legendary Nishisansho, where they work and live.

Among the high red walls of the Forbidden City, there is an area that has not been opened to the public so far, which is the West Third Institute, which is known as the "Cold Palace". This seemingly unpretentious courtyard is the only place in the entire Forbidden City office area where access control is set up. The Ministry of Cultural Conservation Science and Technology located in it is like a "general hospital" for the restoration of cultural relics. Outside are the artefacts lying in the storerooms or displayed in the exhibition halls, and inside there is another world, where generations of restorers have brought them back to life.

Apricot beating is a major event of the Ministry of Culture and Science and Technology.

Every year in May and June, when you see the green apricots on the apricot tree slowly turning into a sweet and soft honey yellow, it is time to happily beat the apricots.

Since it coincided with the anniversary exhibition of the Palace Museum, each group was given a large number of restoration tasks, and the apricots on the trees were ripe and no one picked them, and they fell densely to the ground, attracting black and crushed ants.

Early in the morning, a quarter of an hour before going to work, the people of the carpentry group took the lead, the girl in the office took out the white paper to cover the cultural relics, and then climbed the ladder to pick it was too laborious, only needed to tear off a branch and shake it, a burst of "royal apricot rain" fell, no matter how strong the white paper covering the cultural relics was, it could not bear the rhythm.

"Sizzle~~~~!!"

"The legendary apricot!"

"You can smell the fruity scent of apricots through the screen. ”

"Ahhh

"Just rush to this apricot tree, I'm going to work in the Forbidden City!"

"Envy, there are so many melons and fruits, it feels like a paradise, if only I could work in such an environment. ”

Looking at the little cactus ball at the desk, he silently left tears. ”

Looking at the picture, everyone laughed and parted apricots, and they didn't catch up and came to ask for it, this is also a rare moment of noise and laughter in the West Three Institutes, with the arrival of eight o'clock, it is like a magic space, time, human voices, are frozen. And the audience can only look at the apricots with envy to quench their thirst, at this moment, they really have the heart to go to work in the Forbidden City, however, this job is really not something that ordinary people can do.

As the documentary progressed, the audience got to know more young people who inherited the craftsmanship of the Forbidden City.

Qu Feng of the woodware group graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Min Junrong of the lacquerware group graduated from the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, Kong Yanju of the Baibao inlay group Qu Feng's younger sister also graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and Chen Yang of the textile restoration group is finally not the face of CAFA, but he also graduated from the China Academy of Drama, the highest school of Chinese opera......

"Oh my God, is CAFA Qingmei a private venue?"

"Damn, Lao Tzu's resume is ready, you will give me this?"

"It's not that the top students can't get in, my God!"

"Don't you want to be so ruthless!"

"I knew it wouldn't be that simple!"

......

At this moment, fans deeply felt the contempt of Wang Zhi from Xueba, and they were very hurt.

The woodware group also has the master Shi Liancang, the master of the lacquerware group has retired, only Xiao Min and the senior brother have been taken by the master, and the textile group, which is all girls not long after its establishment, is a little pitiful, and it all has to rely on itself.

This inevitably made the audience worry about the problem of lack of success, but soon this idea disappeared.

The textile girls can noisily chat about trivial matters of life, complain aggrievedly that they can't paint their nails and can't spray perfume, and they can also quietly learn the silk craft that even many young people in Suzhou are willing to learn.

Xiao Min "fights" with the senior brother for the fig tree that was "clicked" off by the senior brother, in order to obtain better repair materials, he can also cross the mountains and mountains to follow professional lacquer farmers to collect natural lacquer.

Whether it is an inch of silk and an inch of gold, or a hundred miles and a pound of paint, the restoration and protection of cultural relics is never simple.

Seeing the quality of these young people, what else is there to worry about, the ingenuity of the old craftsmen, they have not lost it at all, this is the inheritance.

"Everybody's understanding of artifacts is different, and it's related to temperament. Cultural relics are actually the same as people, you see, we said from the earliest times in the past, jade has six virtues, jade is a broken stone, what virtue does it have, but the Chinese can see the virtue from above, so the Chinese make a chair, just like being a person, he uses the character of the person to demand this chair.

The ancient Chinese people paid attention to the object, that is, to look at things with themselves, and to look at themselves with things. That's why I'm telling you, these things in the ancient Forbidden City are alive. In the process of making things, people always have to find a way to integrate themselves into it. People come in this world, go on a trip, although they want to leave something in the world, feel that they are valuable in this way, many people generally think that the cultural relics restoration worker is because the cultural relics have been repaired, so he is valuable, in fact, it is not necessarily such a simple aspect.

In the process of cultivating this cultural relic, he communicated with it, he understood it, and he had already integrated himself into it. Cultural relics are dead, what do you want cultural relics, the purpose of cultural relics is to let it spread culture, right, it's not that cultural relics are just to keep an object there, that has no value. ”

When Qu Feng was like a homely chatter, without an excited tone, he carved the Bodhisattva casually, and calmly chattered about the philosophy of life that he had realized, his heart was shocked!

"That's great!"

"Master's wisdom!"

"It's so good that I want to cry. ”

"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years!"

"See people with things, forget things with me!"

"In the end, CAFA, it's terrible to have culture. ”

"Hahahaha! This is the real Buddhist youth!"

"Taught!"

......

The legendary musical instrument - Se has been repaired, the part of the treasure chest of Fanren has been completed, Qu Feng of the woodware group has asked his colleagues to find where it has been repaired in Dese, and at the exhibition, Chen Yang's restored door to see the joy strip has been exhibited, showing its recorded glory in front of tourists......

When I see the important weapons of the country that have been sealed for hundreds of years and seriously damaged on the screen in the hands of cultural relics restorers, I believe that everyone will be deeply shocked in their hearts.

In the mysterious West Three Forbidden City, the small courtyard is full of greenery, where there are jujube trees planted by Shi Liancang's father in the woodware group, Junzilan planted by Yun Xiaogang in the Jinshi group, lacquer trees by Min Junrong in the lacquerware group, corn and eggplant in Shen Wei of the Jiazhang group, and apricot trees and jujube trees in the Qing Dynasty.

The small courtyard is rich in ecology, the cultural relics department does not work overtime, and must get off work on time at five o'clock, after work, the huge space is left for small animals, there are stray cats, weasels that may be the descendants of royal cats, weasels, and various birds adopted by the wood group.

Every day, the bronze restorer Wang Youliang will take on the responsibility of feeding the cats, and the title of the palace royal shovel official can't run away, and although Qu Feng of the wood group seems to be aggrieved, he complains that he has taken in a lot of animals that "others don't want to raise and give to us, and finally slowly raise and raise them to become a burden", but he will not forget to carry the bird cage back to the house when he gets off work, otherwise "you may only see a few hairs the next day", and his mouth is upright.

Day after day, year after year, here, generation after generation of cultural relics restorers, watching the plum tree, jujube tree, fig, lacquer tree slowly grow, riding bicycles swaying past those magnificent palaces, passing under the trees full of apricots, picking up a rub and putting it in their mouths, and then going to the yard to feed the royal cats, watching the flowers bloom and fall, and the clouds roll up.

Time passes very slowly in the Forbidden City, and the people in the Forbidden City are eternally young.
