It can be seen that because of the difference in design concepts, there is a great contradiction between Chen Ming and his father, so that Chen Ming did bamboo weaving design, but failed to work in his father's bamboo weaving factory.

"Are you sure you want to leave Yunnan and go back to Beijing with us?" Yi Yao asked Chen Ming.

Chen Ming looked very carefree, and replied with a smile: "As long as you don't interfere in the design, I'm willing to try, and there is no loss for me anyway." ”

From Chen Ming's dress and speech and demeanor, Yi Yao had already guessed that Chen Ming was a person who was not short of money, and the two hit it off and drove back to Beijing together that afternoon.

On the way, it was convenient for a few people to get out of the car after passing through the rest area, and Qin Mo asked Yi Yao: "Old Yi, you are very strange." ”

Yi Yao couldn't help but ask: "What's strange about me?" ”

Qin Mo frowned: "Before you came, you said that the designer had to be assessed in person, and you had to pass this level, so it can be seen that Chen Ming asked people to go to Beijing without saying a few words, what did you assess?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Yi Yao laughed: "What, according to your meaning, we should let Chen Ming prepare a resume first?" How many more designs can he do on the spot? ”

……

Although the workers did not say anything, in fact, most of them complained about Qin Yanshan's "restructuring", but now Qin Yanshan has absolute decision-making power, and this group of people can only dare to be angry but dare not speak.

A few days ago, Qin Yanshan did not let Chen Ming immediately start designing, but first understood the processing process and the state of the people in the Heiquan community.

Chen Ming was not stupid and soon felt the malice in the eyes of the surrounding crowd, but Chen Ming did not take it seriously, but was accustomed to it.

A good designer is not able to quickly make an eye-catching design, but can find a design style that conforms to the tonality of the product, and make a series of design plans on the basis of determining the style.

Chen Ming is not a radical designer, his design idea is to optimize the product shape and expand the product function on the basis of not affecting the functionality of the product, which coincides with Yi Yao's vision.

In those days, Yi Yao often went to Chen Ming to communicate design ideas, and as agreed before, Yi Yao did not interfere with Chen Ming's design, more often than just a listener.

Yi Yao can often encounter workers deliberately making things difficult for Chen Ming, at this time, Yi Yao will not deliberately help Chen Ming out of the siege or refute, Yi Yao knows very well that for a long time in the future, this will be the norm, and Chen Ming can only adapt to this state.

Although Uncle Zhang also likes Chen Ming's character, he seems to understand what Yi Yao means, except for unintentionally encouraging him when talking and chatting, most of them will not interfere in this situation.

Soon, Chen Ming's first product design came out.

Qin Yanshan didn't say anything for a long time after seeing the design drawing, he knew that Yi Yao had helped him find the right person this time.

Qin Yanshan immediately anxious a few veteran craftsmen in the Heiquan community to discuss the new product design drawings together. Qin Yanshan knew that since Chen Ming came to the Black Spring Community, many people had opinions about him, but of course, more of them were dissatisfied with Qin Yanshan.

The news reached the ears of the workers, and a group of people put down their work and went to the conference room together. Of course, they originally wanted to come to see Chen Ming's jokes.

It's just that when Chen Ming's design drawings were projected onto the screen, the conference room was full of more than a dozen people, and they couldn't speak for a while.

Yi Yao and Qin Mo were also at the scene, and the moment they saw the design drawing, Yi Yao breathed a long sigh of relief, as if relaxed and excited.

"Lao Yi, I don't see anything to say, this design is really that good?"

Qin Mo could also see that this was the difference in the faces of several workers, and he was completely impressed by Chen Ming's design.

Yi Yao smiled slightly, and then said: "Whether the design is good or not, it's not just about whether the appearance is beautiful or not, you'll know later." ”

As a designer, Chen Ming saw that no one expressed his opinion, so he explained his design ideas.

Chen Ming's design idea for this improved drain basket is actually not complicated, but only a few minor changes have been made.

First of all, Chen Ming made changes in the shape and size of the draining basket, abandoning the traditional oval shape of Daoqin bamboo weaving and choosing a square chamfered design. Don't look like it's just a cosmetic change, but it's actually a significant change.

Chen Ming took out a piece of data, and through an online survey, Chen Ming found that most of the kitchen sinks in modern home decoration are square designs. Because of the difference in shape and size, the traditional oval drain basket cannot fit the sink well, resulting in the user having to hold the drain basket in the process of washing vegetables, which reduces the practicability of the product.

Chen Ming designed the shape of the drain basket into a square chamfer shape, and also formulated three sizes that meet the specifications of most brands of dishwashers, and also made a support design on both sides of the long side of the plum sink.

In this way, the drain basket can be perfectly placed on top of the sink, giving full play to the function of the drain basket and bringing a better product experience.

Yi Yao knows very well that although the sales of the draining basket have been good, Yi Yao has seen the sales data, and the repurchase rate of the draining basket is not high. Now seeing Chen Ming's design, Yi Yao finally understands that most of those sales come from impulse consumption and support for traditional handicrafts, and low practicality is the main reason for the low repurchase rate.

After saying this, the people in the audience who were ready to watch Chen Ming's jokes had the heart to refute but didn't know how to refute, which seemed very funny.

Chen Ming's second change is in the way of weaving.

Traditional bamboo drainage baskets are usually made in a fixed way, such as hollow weave, twill weave, and trapezoid. Wanting the draining basket to be more in line with the aesthetics of modern people, Chen Ming didn't want to be too exaggerated in shape and craftsmanship, so he chose a combination of various weaving methods.

In the design drawing, Chen Ming skillfully interweaves the twill, trapezoidal, and hollow weave weaving methods, and the treatment method of tightening the top and loosening the bottom not only meets the functional needs of the draining basket, but also has a new form of expression in the weaving pattern.

Although it doesn't look as delicate as the handicrafts, the integration of the weaving method does make this draining basket have a certain aesthetic improvement, which is more in line with the aesthetic needs of modern people.

In addition, Chen Ming also added a symbolic design to this drain basket.

Chen Ming used the character "Qin" on behalf of the Dao Qin bamboo weaving in the shape of the product, and the word "Qin" woven with a finer basket was fused with the draining basket by cuttings, which appeared on the center side of the long noodles and was treated with lacquer.

Although only one word is added to the draining basket, the meaning of this word is not simple.

Yi Yao's new account operation idea, itself linked to the brand route of Dao Qin bamboo weaving, the increase of the word "Qin", just perfectly fits Yi Yao's operation idea, in the design of the dead end, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a god.

The function and size are more in line with the rigid requirements of modern home decoration, and the shape and aesthetics are more in line with the aesthetic needs of modern people, and at the same time, the product experience and brand ideas are also improved.

"How do you feel that this designer hasn't changed anything?"

A worker suddenly said a sentence, but several masters were embarrassed: "Nothing has been changed and changed, this is called skill." ”

Indeed, the biggest change may be that the shape has changed from an oval to a square chamfer, and the weaving techniques, skills, and even treatments inherited from Daoqin bamboo weaving have not changed at all.

Chen Ming's design did not change the "framework" of Dao Qin's bamboo weaving, but made a new draining basket that echoed the aesthetics of modern people, which made the workers who originally planned to see Chen Ming's jokes completely lose their temper.

It was just ten o'clock in the morning when the show ended, and seeing Qin Yanshan's excited face, Qin Mo couldn't say what he felt in his heart.

Change is always the hardest, and although the process is difficult, the good thing is that the result is good.

No one knows how much pressure Qin Yanshan was under when he agreed to restructure, and he would even take the responsibility of ruining the traditional craftsmanship and even cutting off the Dao Qin bamboo weaving. The incomprehension of so many old craftsmen, coupled with the punishment of the uncle, all these grievances seem to be worth it now.

At noon, someone at the dinner table served Chen Ming vegetables, and someone deliberately put delicious food in front of Chen Ming.

They didn't say anything, but it was as if they had said everything.

Seeing the scene in front of them, Qin Mo and Yi Yao looked at each other and smiled, they knew that the Black Spring community that had once united was back.

It's just that just halfway through the meal, Yi Yao's expression suddenly became serious, and before he finished eating, he ran back to the wooden house in a panic.

Seeing this, Qin Mo immediately chased after him.
