Cheng Yubai said: "He said he couldn't hear it, and he wanted to get closer to Mr. Xu." "Refers to the person who has just changed seats.

Xu Qing asked, "Are you explaining to me?" ”

"Or I'm talking to a ghost?" He pursed his lips and lowered the line of his lips, pressing the two soft lips together, so that the blood on the bridge of his nose was more conspicuous.

I don't know if it's because of the perennial immersion in ceramics, he has a cold and solemn temperament that is in harmony with porcelain, people who are not familiar with him will think that his temperament is gloomy, with coolness, and people who are familiar with him are completely disagreeable, and the coolness of ceramics and harmony, is not warm? Natural, a master style.

In particular, he likes to wear comfortable and spacious clothes at home, and has short black hair, which looks hard and soft, and occasionally seems warm and pleasant, as if it is easy to approach.

In fact, this man is suspicious and vigilant, and there are few confidants around him. It is difficult for ordinary people to see any clues from his face unless he allows it.

However, Xu Qing has known him for almost ten years, and he can see that he is addicted to smoking, which is really unhappy.

"Did you hear it all?"

"Hmm." She paused, "It's too loud." ”

Cheng Yubai was noncommittal: "You went over to call Xu Xiaohe just now?" ”

"If you continue to talk about it, it's hard to guarantee that someone won't be able to record, and it will affect the recording of "The Great Power."

"That's what you want?"

Xu Qing raised his eyes, and there was a thick cloud of black, with flames, approaching Cheng Yubai's heart. The corners of her mouth curled, like a ghost: "After all, it's what you want." ”

Heh, Cheng Yubai sneered lightly: "Look at your ability." ”

Xiao Qi looked at the person who was still angry first, and he was in a good mood all of a sudden.

Is this man sick?

At first, in order to hide people's eyes, the program team contacted some ceramic workers to interview and record their lives, Xu Xiaohe picked and called a few people who felt good to the scene, the only exception was Xu Qing. Xu Qing belonged to Mao Sui's self-recommendation, with a beautiful resume and a beautiful person, when he saw her in a hurry that day, he felt that she had a story in her eyes.

Now that I look at it, I am even more certain.

A large group of people sat together, she and Cheng Yubai were at the end of the long table, seemingly integrated into the group, but in fact, a dividing line was drawn around them, and four big characters were written clearly - do not approach the living.

This relationship is unusual at first glance.

Xu Xiaohe curled the corners of his mouth and said: "Let's talk about it, your understanding of "The Great Power" or your own experience, and why you want to be on the show, what you want to say and gain in the show." ”

I have to say that the prince looks unreliable, but he is not easy to fool. He knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and that these people must have gathered here for what purpose.

"I'll do it first."

A big boy sitting on Xu Xiaohe's left hand side with a backpack and a sunny smile was the first to speak, "It's a little embarrassing to say, but it's really an urgent reality for me, I need money, especially need." I want to be on this show, on the one hand, I have money, and on the other hand, I can promote myself. Ah forgot to say, I am a senior at Ceramics University, I am currently in the entrepreneurial stage, I want to go to the Lotte Market to set up a stall, but to apply for qualifications, I have applied for half a year and have not passed, and I am about to graduate, if there is no breakthrough, I will have to consider finding a job or leaving Jingdezhen, but I am really unwilling, why can other students can't? Why can others stay, but I can't? Is it so hard for me to be an independent potter? Now I go to the public kiln twice a week to burn ceramics, and I meet a lot of people like me on the way, and we have a lot of innovative ideas and ideas that we want to try, but ......"

Speaking of this, he choked up, "I still have no more than two hundred yuan in my body now, and I have to work at eleven o'clock, for me time is really tight, maybe every minute standing here is a cost, so I want to be the first to speak, I'm sorry I'm a little nervous, it's a mess, please don't mind." ”

He bowed slightly in apology, a tight smile on his face.

Xu Qing looked at it, it was not caused by the embarrassment of only two hundred yuan in the whole body, but because of a few anxieties about why and why not.

The superficial, polite, cramped, nervous and expectant smile made her sit up straight.

Immediately afterwards, someone said: "I was a laid-off worker in the porcelain factory in the 90s, and now I work as a billet worker in a private workshop, mainly to draw blanks. I am an employment contract, there is no commission, and I receive a dead salary of several thousand yuan a month. If you look at it now, the salary is already a lot, when I was just laid off, there was only 50 yuan of living allowance per month, the family ate cabbage every day, which lasted for two or three years, some old colleagues couldn't stand it and went to work in other cities, and they never saw it again, some divorced, committed suicide, got sick and died, and now look at the nowhere around me is dedicated, I just want to find a place to talk, right? I don't care if there is more money and less money, anyway, it's just such a way of living, and I don't need to worry about it when the child grows up, it's just very sad, I don't know how many young people still remember the former state-owned porcelain factory, does anyone know about the Jianguo porcelain factory? What about red flags? Universe? ”

The 80s is the heyday of the top ten state-owned porcelain factories, each porcelain factory has two or three thousand workers, the annual output value is as high as tens of millions of yuan, you must know what this value represents in the 80s, Jingdezhen population accounts for 3% of the whole Jiangxi Province, but the tax paid accounts for 20% of the province, is the most important industrial base in Jiangxi Province.

At that time, most of the porcelain of the top ten porcelain factories were exported to foreign countries to create foreign exchange income for New China to support the development of other industries in the country.

Another striking feature was that at that time, young people in Jingdezhen had to work in the porcelain factory if they did not enter the government office, and the wages of the workers in the porcelain factory were hundreds of yuan, while the salary of ordinary units was only forty or fifty yuan.

"You're too young to understand. At that time, I was working in a state-owned porcelain factory, my heart was very down-to-earth, my life was greatly guaranteed, and I looked at the hope in front of me, and I was full of energy every day. Who knew that in an economic reform, the top ten porcelain factories would all disappear. A lot of people are crying, making trouble, it's useless, it's just that there is no money, and the sky is falling all of a sudden. ”

More than 100,000 workers were laid off overnight, and it is not an exaggeration to say that "rivers of blood flowed." The government was burdened with huge foreign debts, the market economy was completely dragged down, and the top ten porcelain factories never woke up after that. It's just that in the past many years, the original state-owned porcelain factory has gradually developed into a new ceramic ecology, which is today's Taoxichuan.

Similar to Beijing's 798 Community, Taoxichuan Creative Park is a gathering place for young ecology and handicraft culture and creativity in Jingdezhen, where there are artist studios, pottery galleries, galleries, international exchange centers and creative markets, where most of the potters have personalities, expressions, dare to speak, have a group of fixed sales groups, and are also one of the tourist landmarks in Jingdezhen.

Every year, Taoxichuan gathers 200 foreign artists from more than 60 countries, nearly 1,000 college students and creators from 68 well-known art colleges and universities at home and abroad.

The vast majority of entrepreneurs will choose to go to Taoxichuan first.

"Many old porcelain factory workers like me also like to go there to hang out, if not for anything else, just to be able to listen to everyone tell the story of this land, but there are really fewer and fewer people who remember the top ten porcelain factories."

In Jingdezhen, the brand-new Taoxichuan is certainly nostalgic, but what makes people haunt it is the old factory building of the top ten porcelain factories. The old factory building is like an old song with endless aftertaste, and when the song ends, people scatter, and those historical traces are seen less once, and watched less and less again.

Xu Xiaohe really didn't know about the past, and there was very little knowledge here, and then no one praised him.

I saw that the grandmother's eyes wandered around, and she sighed long, and her eyes were filled with sadness and loneliness that could not be dissolved, just like porcelain that had lost its luster, and finally became a useless piece of soil under the wear and tear of time.

Xu Qing turned his head to look at Cheng Yubai, Cheng Yubai's expression was indifferent, and his eyes were indifferent. She couldn't hold back the sarcasm: "You won't forget it, will you?" Didn't your father's Baicai porcelain factory disappear along with the top ten porcelain factories? ”

At that time, Baicai Porcelain Factory can be said to be the most special existence independent of the top ten porcelain factories, not a state-owned enterprise, nor did it merge with any private porcelain factory to expand.

When I went to school, I heard the most is the legend of Cheng Yubai's family, the royal bloodline, the great-grandfather was the first to start a ceramic teaching in Jingdezhen, it can be said that the peach and plum are all over the world, "Zhushan Eight Friends" appeared in that period, no matter which one of them is a big man, its painting style and genre are still flourishing;

Grandfather is a senior painter, good at writing landscapes, insects and fish, painting skills are heavenly, the most important thing is a pair of peach blossom eyes, it is rumored that the suitors can be lined up from Jingdezhen all the way to Hong Kong, there have been rich businessmen for Bo Jun to laugh and throw a lot of money, the gatehouse sprinkled money to make a whole city vigorous;

Father Cheng Min grew up in the porcelain factory, Bali Hutong jumped to everyone know, at the age of 17 began to establish the Baicai porcelain factory, just ten years of fame at home and abroad.

But who would have thought that the top ten state-owned porcelain factories and the Baicai porcelain factory would disappear overnight when they were at their most beautiful, and all the glory would be lost overnight. The old people all emphasize that overnight, not an exaggeration, but the truth.

Cheng Yubai wants to say that there is something that can't be touched, and this is over. His face was already quite cold, but after hearing Xu Qing's words, he became even colder: "You can see this in your eyes?" ”

"I can see something else, and you don't say it."

"Have you asked?"

Xu Qing pursed his lips: "Will you say it if you ask?" ”

"How do you know without asking?" Cheng Yubai is most annoying about her, "You are always self-righteous, what you hear outside, you think of what I think, have you asked me even once?" ”

"Are you throwing a tantrum?"

Cheng Yubai was silent, and was pinching his palms backwards. I felt panicked when I didn't have anything in my hand, and I was looking left and right to get something, and a cigarette was handed over to me. Cheng Yubai skimmed his face: "I don't smoke." ”

"Take it."

What is this? Give a hammer and a sweetness? Cheng Yu ate this trick in vain, and before he thought about it, he grabbed the cigarette in his hand, pinched it, and the whole person was much more comfortable.

Xu Qing also no longer mentioned the Baicai porcelain factory. After a long while, her voice came softly from the side: "I asked, you told me to go." ”

Cheng Yubai is a stone to shoot himself in the foot.

The current situation, this situation, is no longer suitable for explanation. Besides, she wouldn't listen.

At this time, there was a young man with glasses, who looked like Sven and talked generously: "I am a Chinese teacher in an educational institution, the level is OK, I have taught several famous schools, and it is also a golden sign of the institution, the salary is not low, I have a house and a car, I usually have no hobbies, and I occasionally visit the antique market to collect ceramics, and I am half an amateur player." The main reason why I came to this show was to see different landscapes. A while ago, the archaeological "Ming Shilu" said that during the orthodox years, Guanglu Temple held a banquet to entertain the Jurchen envoys who came from afar, and more than 580 blue and white plates and bowls were stolen during the banquet! 580 pieces of blue and white, that's Jingdezhen's golden signboard, I'm so shocked, while thinking that those messengers are too bold and shameless, and at the same time I feel ironed, it's really gratifying, this is what Jingdezhen should look like, isn't it? ”

His words made people both sad and sad. Look at Jingdezhen today, plagiarism and imitation, theft without any copyright to speak of, who else cares?

The man didn't care, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and continued: "In the Qing Dynasty, the kiln was responsible for mass production, and the production process was broken down into seventy-two processes. This phenomenon is very scary. For this, I did some research, mainly on the one hand, at that time, most of the kilns adopted the employment system, the three kilns and the nine guilds of the gang system were strict and abnormal, and the workers had to drink tea on the field and on the ground, and the boss could fire the employees, and the employees could also fire the boss, but they had to follow the rules of the industry, respect each other, and go to the teahouse to talk seriously about the beginning and the end. At that time, the rules of the guild were basically refined to each of the seventy-two processes, that is, the ashes of the kiln could not be disposed of casually, the number of workers and the work were clearly calculated, and both labor and management had to strictly abide by the rules of the guild. In this kind of market, the morality of the porcelain workers has been well constrained in both nature and appearance, so a benign system has been formed, and in the high-pressure competition, they strive for perfection, and all their minds are focused on craftsmanship. ”

The man looked like a teacher, he could tell stories, his tone was subdued, and he talked about specific rules, which made everyone speechless and swept away the previous sentimentality.

Xu Qing has never understood the environment of ancient porcelain-making, it sounds fresh, and feels distant, it is a completely different era from now, you can perceive the closure of social classes, the humility of human rights in front of the imperial power, but the mutual respect between ceramic people, and completely beyond the modern enterprise system in vain "false freedom", "false enlightenment".

She looked at Xu Zhiliu, and the young man listened carefully, occasionally nodding and frowning, both agreeing and puzzled.

She couldn't help but think that such a society that relied on manpower and handiwork, with 72 processes and 80 lines, could make the Hutian kiln the head of the private kiln, how much did he pay for it?

Eighteen years old, enough to be called an untimely death, and he was in a foreign land, no one could hear about it, and there must be endless regrets and unwillingness in his heart, right?

Is Cheng Yubai really Liang Peiqiu? Is he really the only reason he came into this world?

The teacher said a lot, and finally concluded: "Since 1600, the Spaniards have imported more than 2 million truckloads of silver every year to purchase Chinese products, mainly porcelain. In 1569~1636 alone, 200 million Spanish dollars of silver flowed into China from Japan through Portuguese merchants. In 1729~1774, only the Dutch East India Company sold 43 million pieces of Jingdezhen porcelain. On its first voyage, the Swedish East India Company earned 900,000 kroner, when the entire Swedish treasury was only 1 million kroner. What does the data say? Jingdezhen was seen in distant Western Europe, and the East was covered with gold and silver. ”

Jingdezhen himself did not expect that it would make the world fall in love with China, and this love and yearning indirectly contributed to the arrival of the Age of Discovery. Shouldn't such a splendid and splendid thousand-year-old civilization be remembered by history?

"It is surrounded by the farming culture of cultivating and reading heirlooms, but it has become the earliest industrial city in the world, from the nameless Xinping town to the famous 'Jingdezhen system', from the prosperity of the royal kiln to the thousand-year-old immortality in the name of the emperor, it has been selected by history again and again, and has been loved by the times again and again!"

This small city was appreciated by Song Zhenzong for producing high-quality blue and white porcelain, and an edict gave the name of the emperor's year, and "Jingdezhen" has been used to this day. The teacher was passionate, "I think that the era of Jingdezhen belongs to any era. Since we want to make a powerful program, since it is a big country, we should seize every opportunity to show the charm of Jingdezhen ceramics to the Chinese people. We should not engage in internal consumption, we should unite to let more people join in and speak out for Jingdezhen ceramics! ”

After that, thunderous applause rang out from the field.

Xu Qing looked at the teacher, looked at the hands waving in response, looked at the tears flashing in the eyes of those people, the instinctive blood in her body was hot, and she began to sit still, her back was up, and she wanted to cheer together, but she didn't know why, her eyes suddenly lost focus, and she didn't know where to look.

Xu Xiaohe noticed her strangeness, raised his hand to signal quiet, and asked, "Xu Qing, what about you?" ”

Xu Qing was forced to get up under a kind of eager attention.

She didn't know why she suddenly lost the ability to speak at this juncture, her mouth was hoarse, her body twitched, and she couldn't make a sound. Those rich and passionate expressions made a certain level in her heart open or reorganized, bringing a huge impact.

Fragments began to appear in her mind, rushing towards her like a tidal wave.

Until everything in front of me turned into illusion, leaving only two or three people in the seat. At the front of the long table was Xu Xiaohe, who was looking at her with scrutiny, silently telling her that she only had one chance. Beside her was cold, Cheng Yubai, who once put her in her eyes for a short time, and rubbed it out like sand without hesitation.

She felt her body sway.

Suddenly, a young man broke out of the light, walked to the pear tree, broke off a branch, and left two big characters on the ground with the flying of the water green coat - industry.

That's right. She has only one purpose today, which is to defeat Cheng Yubai and get "The Heavy Weapon of the Great Power", and Xu Xiaohe will not care about those beautiful, gorgeous, rich and enthusiastic flowers.

He is a businessman who cares about the result, so she took a deep breath and said: "I don't understand that, if it were me, I would talk about modern industry and brand value, as well as the added value of IP and designers." ”
