Chapter 122: The Teacher's Gate

Yi Yao is very clear that in order to make a brand effect, in order to make handmade bamboo products that meet the attributes of the reading platform, it is necessary to make changes in the shape and functional design of the product.

Qin Yanshan is the inheritor of Qin bamboo weaving, the inheritance is the old craft, although the innovation space of handicrafts is very large, but the daily necessities that meet the requirements of Yi Yao, both in shape and function are very single.

Take the bamboo basket as an example, the size and even the color of the closing diameter baking paint have conventional standards, and it is difficult to achieve a breakthrough in the appearance of these veteran craftsmen in the Heiquan community.

At noon, Yi Yao took Qin Mo to find Qin Yanshan and Lao Zhang, and after chatting for a long time, Yi Yao determined that the craftsmen in the Heiquan community had serious purchasing agents with the aesthetic needs of young people.

"Uncle Qin, I wonder if we can recruit a designer? Help us improve the appearance and functionality of our products? ”

Yi Yao was very careful when she said this, she knew that the self-esteem of an old craftsman like Qin Yanshan was very fragile.

Qin Yanshan glanced at Lao Zhang next to him, and his expression was indeed a little unhappy as Yi Yao thought: "Lao Zhang, what do you think?" ”

Lao Zhang is not a stubborn person, but he still asked Yi Yao: "Our current category is not enough?" In fact, we can also do the design ourselves, or we can make a few finished products, you can take a look at it first? ”

This will Qin Mo also realize that Yi Yao brought her here to fight the thunder: "Old Qin, Yi Yao didn't mean that, it's not that our products are not good enough, it's ...... It is not quite in line with the aesthetics of young people. It's like ......"

Qin Mo racked his brains before he thought of a suitable analogy: "It's like you like to listen to Teresa Teng's songs, and we like Jay Chou, the times are different, and our aesthetic needs are different." ”

After a wave of forced explanations, Qin Yanshan and Lao Zhang remained full of doubts without changing their faces.

Lao Zhang brought Yi Yao and the others to the door, and then expressed his concerns: "Lao Qin and I can actually understand what you mean, but this matter is really not easy to handle?" ”

Qin Mo looked puzzled: "Old Uncle Zhang, what's so bad about this?" The designer makes the design draft, and our workers make the product according to the design draft, is it difficult that we can't make it? ”

Lao Zhang shook his head and said: "Old craftsmen are very tough, the craft has been passed down from generation to generation, everything is done like this, they ......" Lao Zhang sighed and continued: "Just like Tang Bohu, he is the best at painting maids, and the emperor let him enter the palace to paint sparrows, isn't this humiliating people?" ”

In fact, over the years, Qin Yanshan and Lao Zhang are not unaware of the reasons for the decline of the Heiquan community, and they also know that they have lost touch with the times.

But change is always the hardest.

Especially these old craftsmen, how the master teaches and what he asks, they will do what they do, change, it is against the teacher's way, and even if it is serious, it is to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors.

Although Yi Yao could understand Uncle Zhang's words, she still said: "Uncle Zhang, I still suggest that you and Uncle Qin can discuss again, although we are young, we can also understand your difficulties, but if Dao Qin wants to pass it on, he must change." The black-and-white TV radio of thirty years ago, the sharpener on the flyover, they are all gone. ”

Yi Yao has already said everything that needs to be said, and the next thing can only depend on how Qin Yanshan chooses.

Even Qin Mo on the side felt that Yi Yao was a little abnormal at this moment, and his sharp edge was not as soft as before.

"Didn't you say before, if you don't break it, you can't stand it, if you want to pass it on, you have to change this way."

Yi Yao seemed to have guessed Qin Mo's thoughts at once, and said with a serious expression: "I don't want to do this either, but someone has to say these things." I don't want the Black Springs community to fall like this. ”

After saying that, it was just over two o'clock when he asked the designer to do so, Yi Yao went back to the wooden house to continue testing the data, and Qin Mo went to Qin Yanshan.

Judging from Yi Yao's reaction, Qin Mo had also realized the seriousness of the problem this time, if Qin Yanshan and them insisted on not making changes, the Black Spring community and even Dao Qin Zhubian might eventually face a desperate situation.

In the evening, several things happened in the Black Springs community.

First of all, Qin Yanshan agreed with the opinion of recruiting designers; In addition, several veteran craftsmen left the Black Springs community. Secondly, Qin Yanshan knelt at the door all night.

Yi Yao's insistence and Qin Mo's encouragement, Qin Yanshan finally agreed to the idea of recruiting designers, but the consequences were obviously what Yi Yao and Qin Mo did not expect.

As Qin Yanshan expected, as soon as he announced his decision, it aroused opposition from the old craftsmen in the Heiquan community. Making an exception is an extremely rare existence in the traditional teacher-disciple relationship. Moreover, the Taoist Qin bamboo weaving has continued from the Ming Dynasty to the present, and the rules have never changed, and Qin Yanshan's doing so is tantamount to making an exception.

As soon as several seventy-year-old craftsmen heard that Qin Yanshan was going to change the rules and make an exception, they were angry, but Qin Yanshan was the director of the factory, and these people had no choice but to express their inner dissatisfaction by leaving the Heiquan Bamboo Weaving Factory.

The workers all thought that Qin Yanshan would try his best to stay, but they didn't think about it, Qin Yanshan not only did not stay, but also said on the spot: Those who don't agree can leave together.

The impact of this incident on the Black Springs community is significant.

In the Heiquan community, although Qin Yanshan is the inheritor of Dao Qin bamboo weaving, Qin Yanshan's generation is not high. Especially among them, there is an old man surnamed Dong, who is Qin Yanshan's uncle, and he can completely crush Qin Yanshan in terms of seniority.

Qin Yanshan agreed to recruit a designer, which was tantamount to breaking the rules of Dao Qin bamboo weaving, and several veteran craftsmen who were determined to leave the Heiquan community immediately found Old Man Dong and asked him to administer justice.

The black circle bamboo weaving factory belongs to Qin Yanshan, and the shares of the workers were all recovered some time ago, and Qin Yanshan has absolute decision-making power. But Old Man Dong came forward, and Qin Yanshan didn't dare to be too disobedient, so he personally came to the door that night to be punished.

Uncle Dong, the old man, plus several veteran craftsmen with high seniority, were very dissatisfied with Qin Yanshan's approach, and taught Qin Yanshan, who was over half a hundred years old, a hard lesson.

Old Man Dong insisted that Qin Yanshan take back his decision, Qin Yanshan had a smooth attitude, but he always refused to give in.

In a fit of anger, Old Man Dong took out the ranking of Master Qin Yanshan and asked Qin Yanshan to kneel at the door all night in the name of Master Qin Yanshan.

Qin Mo was outside the door at the time, she wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by Uncle Zhang on the side.

"Let him go, so that he can feel better."

That was the first time Qin Mo really realized the difference in thinking between the two generations, in the past, she just blindly thought that the older generation was stubborn and paranoid, and that they were backward and pedantic. Knowing this moment, Qin Mo finally had some reflection, and she finally realized that on the road of integrating into the times and following the times, the older generation has made much more efforts than modern people.

We were born in the times, but the older generation of people have to cross the gap to get ashore in the trend of the times.

Qin Yanshan knelt all night, and Qin Mo stayed all night. Knowing that the next morning, Old Man Dong opened the door and saw Qin Yanshan still kneeling at the door, so he sighed silently and sighed: "The world has changed, the world has changed, you can do what you want." ”

Qin Yanshan knelt all night and finally gained the understanding of his uncle, but a few old craftsmen left in the Heiquan community at once, and many important processes suddenly lost their gatekeepers, and the production efficiency was instantly reduced to a level.

After learning about the situation, Yi Yao, her shock was the same as Qin Mo's, neither of them thought that a decision to recruit designers would cause such a big reaction.

Because of guilt, Yi Yao went to apologize to Qin Yanshan, but Qin Yanshan didn't blame Yi Yao: "This step will have to be taken sooner or later, you pushed me in this matter, I am actually grateful to you in my heart." It's okay now," Qin Yanshan breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "Now that all the roads have been paved for you, next, it depends on your performance." ”

The matter of recruiting designers is very important, Uncle Zhang knows how to do it, and said that there is a team specializing in bamboo weaving product design in Yunnan that has found them before, and Uncle Zhang has been in contact with one of the designers and wants him to try.

Yi Yao was always not at ease, after all, the designer's concept must match the operation idea of the bamboo weaving account to achieve the best effect, so Yi Yao was ready to take Qin Mo and Uncle Zhang to Yunnan in person to meet this designer.

First, it appears to be sincere; Moreover, Yi Yao must personally check to rest assured.

The three agreed to go to Yunnan the day after tomorrow, and at noon, Qin Mo took Yi Yao back to the company on Dawang Road, and prepared to go to the 4S store to wash the car by the way.

The car drove to the door of the 4S shop, Yi Yao suddenly turned and went straight to Dong Zhi's auto repair shop.
