Super military empire

Zhang Tonglu's words left Zheng Hao dumbfounded.

To be honest, he didn't understand the cloisonne factory at all, and Liu Yijiu did not give him a detailed introduction. Anyway, to protect the craftsmanship and prevent the little devil from learning it, he just needs to do a good job of confidentiality.

Now that I heard this, I was naturally at a loss.

"It's true. Although Eastern European countries took a lot of shooting back then, there is no complete craftsmanship, right? Even if you have craftsmanship, you know the content of craftsmanship, the key points of various crafts, and the recipes of some secret props required by various crafts For example, foreigners don’t know the kind of glue refined from various natural Chinese herbal medicines used in the filigree process, right? And the formula is only in the hands of a few people, right?" Not sure about this matter.

But he could imagine that in any process, without some unique secret recipes, this thing would have long been rotten.

In an era when the per capita salary was only a few tens of dollars, cloisonne could be sold for thousands of dollars apiece. You can imagine the uniqueness of this craft.

Hearing that Liu Yijiu, who had never spoken very much, said that, not only Shen Rao and Lian Ping, but also Zhang Tonglu's surprised eyes fell off.

This young man is an expert.

"Yes, there are some special items with secret formulas in almost every process. The big process is not a secret!" Zhang Tonglu heard Liu Yijiu say this, and did not dare to look down on these superiors.

"Tell me what happened to shooting in many countries in Eastern Europe." Liu Yijiu is really not very clear about this history.

If someone asks these words from another person, Zhang Tonglu will not care about it.

I would ignore it at all, and naturally I would not explain it.

Liu Yijiu is obviously an expert. At least, he has a very clear understanding of their situation. It is not that he does not know these things, but that he wants to see if they are hiding anything.

He immediately opened the chatterbox and introduced the situation to Liu Yijiu and others.

It turned out that in the 1960s, even though it was antagonistic to the Soviet Union, the situation did not deteriorate to the point where it became antagonistic to the countries that mingled with the Soviet Union.

The Republic needs a source of foreign exchange. Advanced industrial products are basically not available in the Republic. However, some Chinese handicrafts, such as cloisonne, fine porcelain and other objects, export these handicrafts in exchange for foreign exchange, and then exchange for some industrial equipment from abroad.

Although the cloisonne thing has only been passed down for five to six hundred years, it is exquisite in shape. Under the imperial power, only the royal family and officials had the right to own and collect cloisonne products.After the founding of New China, cloisonne products have been well-known by most people in the world, and have won a high reputation both at home and abroad for their wonderful designs and magnificent colors.

The Republic once presented these handicrafts to friendly countries as a national gift.

In order to promote, and also to understand the production process of this ancient exquisite object, and to obtain more orders, Eastern European countries that had more trade with China in the past, such as Romania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Lancelav, sent them Special personnel went to the cloisonné production plant to shoot video...

"So, there is no secret in the cloisonné production process?" Zheng Hao was a little confused.

He looked at Liu Yijiu suspiciously.

"If you talk about the general production process, from tyre making, filigree, blue-burning, polishing, and gilding, these processes are known to the whole world. The only thing is that, as Director Liu said, some special formulas are required. "Zhang Tonglu nodded and said.

Cloisonne is a traditional handicraft that integrates a high degree of artistry, appreciation and collection. The production process uses both bronze and porcelain technology. At the same time, it has introduced a large number of traditional painting and carving skills, including metallurgy, casting, Painting, kilns, carving, chiseling, hammering and other multiple crafts are integrated into a composite process, which can be regarded as a masterpiece of traditional Chinese crafts. Therefore, there has been a saying of "one piece of cloisonne, ten boxes of official kiln ware" since ancient times.

However, every process is complicated and delicate, and it is not that easy to learn at all.

According to statistics, when the Republic was founded, there were only 60 skilled cloisonne workers in the country.

The country also established a cloisonne production plant on the basis of these 60 manual workers.

"In 1976, Japan's Inaba Shippo ware Co., Ltd. once sent a letter to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They learned about Shippo ware from China. Young people in Japan are unwilling to learn this. They hope to pass the craft back to China. They are produced in China and sold. Back then, the factory director, deputy factory director and technical director of Inaba Qibaoyaki Co., Ltd. all came. They were all undergraduates in silicate. In fact, the last time they came to China, there was no camera. , I didn’t take pictures either, I was in charge of the reception back then..." Zhang Tonglu explained.

Hearing this, Liu Yijiu smiled immediately.

Really.

These guys, people who don't understand, there is no problem.

But in fact, is it such a thing?

"Comrade Zhang, I just want to ask, is Japanese Shippo-yaki comparable to Chinese cloisonne? China has even preserved the cloisonné craftsmanship. The lower technology and simple Shippo-yaki craftsmanship are gone? The Japanese have been using it many years ago. Did China learn the craftsmanship of this kind of handicrafts? Especially during the Republic of China and the decades of invasion of China... Qibaoyaki, because they didn’t learn all the cloisonné craftsmanship and did not master some secret recipes. Is it a defective product produced?" Liu Yijiu was not too harsh, his face was very calm.

But the irony in the mouth is very obvious.

I really don't understand whether it is ironic to the Japanese or to some people present here.

Liu Yijiu seriously looked at this 18-year-old apprentice, the first young master to learn a complete set of crafts in hundreds of years. If he was not sure that Zhang Tonglu was not the one who first went to Japan, he also helped the Japanese secretly. Liu Yijiu even thinks that senior technicians, craftsmen, and cloisonne technicians who have been engaged in the production and design of cloisonne for many years will even think that he is that person.

"Director Liu, Qibao cooking is not cloisonne..." Zhang Tonglu never expected that Liu Yijiu would understand these things so clearly.

It is an indisputable fact that the Japanese have been learning Chinese culture and technology since the Tang Dynasty.

Japan’s Shippo-yaki, although the Japanese have always promoted that it has nothing to do with cloisonne, most of the craftsmanship is similar to that of their original creation, but those who really understand the inside will know that the Japanese’s Shippo-yaki is actually Chinese cloisonne because Products appearing due to incomplete technology.

"Anyway, since this thing is handed down by the ancestors, you can't let the little devil learn it." Worried that Liu Yijiu would have an awkward relationship with the people in the factory and affect his future work, Zheng Hao immediately took it out. This is the style of his chief."By the way, after *** approval, the cloisonné factory and rice paper production unit will be managed by our Ninth Institute. This time, regardless of whether the Japanese came to learn, I hope everyone will be long. One mind. In the production process, all kinds of confidential formulas, key know-how and experience, even the temperature of the fire, etc., cannot be told to the Japanese..."

Although I don't understand the production process and craftsmanship of cloisonne, this thing is a bit similar to many craftsmanship of the affiliated units of the Ninth Hospital.

Especially burning blue, the mastery of this thing is extremely critical.

Just like the powder metallurgy of sintered tungsten and molybdenum products, when and how long the temperature is maintained, there are particularities.

Once exceeded, what comes out is a pile of waste products.

Crafts, especially so.

"Director Zheng, what if the head above wants to ask?"

"Tian Wang Lao Tzu can't ask! It's not important to introduce. Ordinary people, if they don't have any ideas, just understand our approximate craftsmanship, unless they are experts..." Zheng Hao interrupted Lian Ping directly."Being well, we don't look at how much foreign exchange you have created for the country. It should go up. There will be no second words. Although it has not been completely determined, I hope that everyone will pay attention to the opinions of the Ninth Academy. In the Ninth Academy, all along, It’s not just looking at a certain aspect..."

Zheng Hao naturally knows what these officials want.

Isn't they just to let superior leaders see their abilities?

"Even if you perform well in front of other leaders, if you don't have the official seal of the Ninth Institute stamped, I think everyone should understand what it means. This time, it is an assessment. As for the treatment of everyone, I want to understand that the people in the Ninth Institute should It's all heard..."

Give a sweet jujube with a stick, and Director Zheng now uses it thoroughly.

Under his auspices, the meeting began to discuss what needs to be kept secret. Once a Japanese person asks or a higher-level leader asks, how to answer it will not lose its image and make the other party feel that the Chinese are not educated.

Once, there was a legend that cloisonne had never been compromised.

It is also said that when the Japanese visited the cloisonne factory in China, they did not take pictures at all, nor did they take any video, and even the Japanese rarely even went into the workshop.What is said that the workshop door in the factory was the same as the reception room door. When the Japanese came out to go to the toilet, they accidentally walked the wrong way, and finally entered the workshop, just to see a few Chinese workers in the workshop shirtlessly playing poker to Japan People have created a very bad diplomatic image.

Anyone with a brain can think that when there are foreign businessmen to visit and negotiate, even if there is no business in the production plant, such a thing is impossible.

The Chinese, let alone the image of the country’s diplomacy, even if the superiors came to inspect, they were very serious!
