Portable Museum

"Master Yang, take a look.

This is a group of warehouses. I plan to do some greening on the outside and a few gazebos inside.

In addition, I plan to build an office building with at least nine floors in the north.

The office building needs to build a three-story underground warehouse.

I want you to help design the shape of this building to coordinate with the style of the warehouse. "Zhang Junping expressed his request to Old Yang.

"Master Zhang, I can design the shape of the nine-story building you mentioned, but this building..."

"What? There is a problem with the construction?"

"All I know are ancient buildings with brick and wood structure, and nine-story buildings can be built with ancient methods.

Only the service life, the firmness of the structure, and the construction cost are not as good as the construction methods of foreigners.

But I don't understand the construction method of foreigners. "Old Yang said his thoughts honestly.

"It doesn't matter! You design the shape, and I'll find a professor from the Department of Architecture of Tsinghua University to perfect the internal structure.

We can have a combination of Chinese and Western. "Zhang Junping laughed.

In fact, Zhang Junping can do such a design by himself.

His museum space now contains hundreds of thousands of Chinese and foreign books, covering everything.

Both western architecture and Chinese architecture have been dabbled in.

In addition, those who are engaged in art are good at layout, so it is not difficult to design green gardens around warehouses and nine-story buildings.

It's just that Zhang Junping has too many things to do now, and he doesn't want to show too much. People who are omnipotent and omnipotent often have no friends.

It happens that there is an old man who can use it, so why do you have to do it yourself.

"That's a good feeling!
I measured the area and drew the drawings when I got back.

Mr. Zhang took it to an expert to perfect the subsequent design. "Old Yang smiled very cautiously.

"Master Yang, there will be more and more buildings that combine Chinese and Western styles in the future.

Looking back, when I was looking for a professional design of architectural structures, you also participated in it and learned more about Western architectural styles and methods.

I remember that when the Old Summer Palace was being built, Shi Shilei also cooperated with foreigners. "Zhang Junping laughed.

"Yes! The Western Building in the Old Summer Palace is a masonry structure that Castiglione participated in the design and construction of during the Qianlong period.

In fact, this Western-style building is mixed with many ancient Chinese architectural styles, and it can be regarded as the earliest building that combines Chinese and Western styles. "Speaking of Shizilei and Yuanmingyuan, Lao Yang's face became a little more confident.

This is the confidence brought to him by the knowledge in the professional field.

"Our ancient buildings cannot be lost, but we must also absorb the masonry and concrete structures of Western architecture.

It is the continuous absorption of the essence of various cultures that enables the 5000 years of Chinese cultural inheritance.

Therefore, our traditional culture should be inclusive rather than conservative. "Zhang Junping looked at Old Yang, his eyes shone with wisdom as he spoke.

"Master Zhang is right. The reason why Style Lei has been able to pass on for hundreds of years is because he never clings to incompleteness, keeps inclusive, absorbs the essence of other families, and is able to flourish.

It's a pity that I shouldn't have said this, but the fact is that the descendants of the Lei family have forgotten how the Lei family started. Due to his own status, he kept suppressing the rising stars, and even suppressed other families by all means. "

"It's good for Master Yang to have this understanding! Whether it's a dynasty, a company, or an individual, the final result of sticking to one's own path and sticking to one's incompetence is being eliminated by society.

Therefore, I have told you more than once before that you should let go of your mind and pass on your craftsmanship, whether it is your own children or apprentices, you must find a way to pass it on.

Not only to preach, but also to teach them the principles of inclusiveness.

If you want, I can recommend you to go to Tsinghua University. Their School of Architecture has a special major in ancient architecture. It is not impossible for you to be a visiting professor, or even become a real professor. "Zhang Junping said solemnly.

"Can I teach at Tsinghua University? Master Zhang, please don't joke with me. Tsinghua University used to be the number one scholar. I, a mason, can't go to teach there!" Old Yang waved his hands in a panic.

"How can we not do it? Master Yang, it is a new society now. It's not like the old society where everything is inferior, and only students are good at reading. Since Tsinghua University opened the School of Architecture and opened the Department of Ancient Architecture, it naturally needs experienced and knowledgeable students like you. The master went to teach.

To be honest, it is a blessing for those college students that you go to Tsinghua University to teach.

I sincerely hope that you can pass on the styles, or in other words, pass on our ancient Chinese architecture.

The main reason why I came to work in this art company is to help more folk craftsmen to live a prosperous life, pass on their skills and carry them forward.

Before, when I was chatting with Dashan, I also said that people have to leave something in their lives.

As the saying goes, people leave their names when they pass, and geese leave their voices when they pass.

However, what's the point of just leaving a name to prove that you once existed?

Therefore, you must have your own career and fight for it. Only in this way can you live up to your life.

The art company is my career, and I hope that through my efforts, I can be given a place the size of a palm in the history books in the future.

Master Yang, how about you?
You don't want a place in the history books?
A hundred years later, we will continue to be neighbors and partners in history books. Looking at the ancient BJ city, Zhang Junping said to Lao Yang with a faint smile.

Zhang Junping's voice was not loud, very soft, but full of infinite allure.

It is the dream of all ancient scholars to leave a name in history.

Not only scholars, but anyone who can live comfortably, who doesn't want to be famous in history?

"Master Zhang, my old man, how can He De occupy a place in the history books?

If it can be included in the history books, even if there is only one line, it will be worthy of the ancestors of my Yang family.

In this way, the one hundred and ten catties of my old Yang head will be handed over to Master Zhang, and I will never go west if Master Zhang says so.

If I can be lucky enough to occupy such a line in the history books, my Yang family will be respected by the Zhang family from generation to generation! "The temptation to go to the history books is so great that Lao Yangtou is unable to resist. As long as he can go to the history books, even if there is a cliff in front of him, Lao Yangtou, who was completely fooled by Zhang Junping, dares to jump down with his eyes open.

"Okay! It's enough to have your words!
As for the words that my Zhang family is respected from generation to generation, don't mention it again.

One generation does not worry about two generations. You and I are friends who have forgotten the age. As for the future generations, it depends on their own good fortune.

Later, I will contact Tsinghua University and give you news.

It just so happens that the Baylor Mansion is under construction now, allowing the students of Tsinghua University to experience the charm of ancient architecture for themselves. "Zhang Junping said with a sassy smile.

"Only by Master Zhang's orders." Old Yang said respectfully.

"En!" Zhang Junping nodded.

After seeing off Old Yang, he returned to the office.

Li Wenjuan's eyes were still shining, "Master, I also want to leave my name in the history books."

"If you want to leave a name in the history books, you can't do it by determination.

In ancient times, only those who have made great achievements, or resisted foreign aggression or benefited one party, and made outstanding contributions can be left in history.

Now it is the same, you have to excel in a certain industry and make extraordinary achievements.

If you work hard, maybe in the future Master will still take your light and leave a name in history. Zhang Junping smiled and patted Li Wenjuan's head.

"Master, you are laughing at me again!" Li Wenjuan said coquettishly.

Time flies, and another week has passed in a blink of an eye.

This week, the calligraphy and painting group that Chen Lijun personally served as a part-timer has achieved outstanding results and successfully signed many young artists.

Among them are several well-known artists in later generations.

Such as Jin Shangyi, Jia Youfu and so on.

Of course, there are more young painters who are not well-known, but have great skills in painting and have great potential in painting.

Famous artists were miserable, and only Wu Xinping, an eighth-level artist, was signed.

In fact, Zhang Junping had already expected this.

This is also quite normal. Famous contemporary painters like Wu Guanzhong, Wu Zuoren, Huang Yongyu, Li Keran, and Li Kuchan are actually well-known in China, and even a little famous abroad.

Naturally unwilling to be bound by the contract.

Not everyone can have Wu Xinping's awareness of giving without seeking fame and fortune.

He has worked in BJ's painting shop for decades without asking for anything in return, and with a meager salary, he supports the operation of the entire BJ's painting shop.

For these famous contemporary artists, Zhang Junping does not force them to sign contracts.

I just repeatedly asked Chen Lijun to find ways to collect as many of their works as possible.

Later, Zhang Junping will issue a special contract, which does not limit them to sell paintings themselves, but provides the contract text of how many works for the art company every year.

In order to avoid leaking out in advance and affecting the current acquisition of calligraphy and paintings, Zhang Junping did not tell anyone about it.

Niu Wensheng and the others saw that Chen Lijun and the others were flourishing in calligraphy and painting, and they were unwilling to be lonely.

It is for the art company to collect many contemporary artworks, wood carvings, jade carvings, nuclear carvings, and clay sculptures.

Some people even went to JDZ to buy contemporary porcelain artworks.

Someone even brought back the mahogany silver-inlaid artwork from Zhang Junping's hometown.

Even signed several young craftsmen of wood carving and jade carving.

Zhang Junping took a look, and found that his level was not bad, and the carvings were very spiritual.

Agreed to sign them.

However, craftsmen such as wood carving and jade carving are not completely suitable for calligraphy and painting contracts.

After all, whether it is wood carving or jade carving, they all belong to the artistic creation of craftsmanship.

If you want to achieve something, you naturally cannot do without a lot of creation and practice.

But the price of good wood and jade is not cheap.

Some of these people originally worked in jade handicraft factories or woodwork factories.

It is not appropriate to carve with public raw materials and then sell them to art companies.

Some people can't afford to buy raw materials to practice their own hands.

Moreover, wood carving and jade carving require them to submit one piece of work a month, which is also a bit difficult.

After all, they have to work at work, so they can only use their spare time to create.

Wood carving and jade carving are both physical and mental industries.

Creating a piece of work takes a lot of energy.

It is difficult to guarantee one piece of work a month after completing one's own work.

Of course, fooling things doesn't count.

Therefore, Zhang Junping specially designed a set of guarantee plus share contract for them.

Each piece of work is given a guaranteed deposit, and you can receive the guaranteed deposit directly after submitting the work. After the work is sold, it will be divided according to the contract.

Only in this way can the contradiction between contracted craftsmen, their own work and art companies be resolved.

Even Zhang Junping is still out of the contract,

One more benefit was added.

That is, you can apply for raw materials from art companies.

The art company provides the raw materials needed for creation. After the works are sold, the value of the raw materials will be deducted first, and then the accounts will be divided.

It's just that this will increase the purchasing pressure on art companies.

However, relative to the benefits, the added pressure is not a problem at all.

It is nothing more than adding a procurement department for raw materials.

Zhang Junping typed the report, and the bureau immediately approved it.

Because it is to purchase raw materials for the creation of artworks, it needs to have a certain aesthetic ability for art, and it must also have a certain appraisal ability.

For example, when purchasing jade, you don’t have to go to contact them and just buy it back.

There are many varieties of jade, and the quality varies greatly.

Wood carving, root carving, what kind of wood is suitable for carving, what kind of tree roots are suitable for carving, people who don't know how to do this work can't do it at all.

After several friendly negotiations between Niu Wensheng's seniors and brothers, Zhai Kangri, Niu Wensheng's younger junior, was finally appointed as the head of the procurement department.

Zhai Kangri is already in his early forties this year, but he is the youngest among Niu Wensheng's senior brothers.

According to Niu Wensheng, purchases have to go to the place of origin, traveling all over the world, these 50 years old people can't bear this toss.

In fact, this is all humility and taking care of the little junior.

They are all apprentices of Lao Hu. In addition to being a master of antique appraisal, Lao Hu is also the successor of Xingyiquan.

Xingyiquan, will he pass it on to his disciples?
Zhang Junping has long seen that Niu Wensheng and the others have kung fu, and you, a young man in your [-]s and [-]s, have enough energy.

Zhang Junping drove to BJ Carpentry Factory while thinking about what happened this week.

Inspired by Niu Wensheng, Zhang Junping also thought that Yang Shankui was a craftsman and a master woodcarver with superb craftsmanship.

Zhang Junping came here with the intention of signing Yang Shankui to the art company.

"Hey! Manager Zhang is free to come to my small temple today!" Yang Shankui joked when they met.

"The size of the temple does not matter, there is a Buddha, there is spirit.

Today I came to worship the true Buddha! " Zhang Junping said with a big laugh.

"You can't do that! Come empty-handed when you come to worship the True Buddha?" Yang Shankui also laughed.

"Worshiping Buddha is naturally a sincere heart, but there is no such thing as worshiping more spirits." Zhang Junping and Yang Shankui joked.

"Come on! Back then Tang Seng was unable to obtain the scriptures because he could not provide personnel information.

Therefore, sincerity leads to spirit is to fool fools.

I don't believe that his sincerity is true! "Yang Shankui said disdainfully.

"What? I came here empty-handed, why don't you accept me?" Zhang Junping laughed.

"Haha! You are different, you are not a Buddhist, you are my brother.

I welcome you anytime! Yang Shankui laughed and let Zhang Junping to the office.

After making tea for Zhang Junping, Yang Shankui asked, "Brother, why are you free to come to my place today?"

"I really have something to ask you this time!" Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"What's the matter, brother, do you still need to ask for words?"

"It's not a personal matter, it's a business matter.

You look at this first. " Zhang Junping said and took out the contract of the signed artist.

"The art company was formed at my suggestion.

In fact, the original purpose was to sell artworks in exchange for foreign exchange.

However, I don't want to sell those ancient works of art, that is, antiques for foreign exchange.

So, I came up with such a plan.

In the name of promoting Chinese traditional culture, sell contemporary art to the outside world.

Of course, publicity is the main thing, and sales are supplemented.

While promoting traditional culture, it is also a promotion for artists.

To this end, we have specially studied a contracting policy.

After becoming a contracted artist of our company, the company will vigorously support and help the artist to improve his skills, and at the same time, it will also make an all-round publicity for the artist himself. "Zhang Junping directly stated his purpose.

If the relationship between him and Yang Shankui is talked about in a roundabout way, it would seem petty.

"Then what does this have to do with me?" Yang Shankui didn't understand for a while.

"Brother Yang, the art company not only deals in calligraphy and painting, but also includes all traditional handicraft art categories.

For calligraphy and painting, me and my master Wu Xinping are enough to support the scene.

However, for the wood carving, I still count on Brother Yang, you, the real Buddha, to support the place. "Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Good guy, let me tell you why your boy came here suddenly today.

It turned out to be this idea.

Good guy, as long as you sign the contract, you can receive a subsidy of [-] yuan a month.

Are you an eighth-level artist, the same level as a carpenter?But the salary is much higher than that of the eighth-level carpenter. " Yang Shankui laughed.

"It's different, our company's contract is divided into nine levels of contracts from level one to level nine.

This is a contract for an eighth-level signed artist.

Moreover, your contract is divided into two types.

One is to submit a woodcarving handicraft every month, and then you can receive a subsidy of 250 three yuan per month.

Another consideration is that people like you, Brother Yang, don’t necessarily have so much free time, and if you can’t finish it, one piece is creation every month, so it’s also stipulated that you can get 250 three yuan for every piece of art you submit Security deposit.

Then, after the artwork is sold, it will be divided, and the proportion of the eighth grade is [-].

You get [-]% and the company gets [-]%.

The [-]% share includes the cost of publicity and promotion. Zhang Junping explained with a smile.

"Brother, according to what you say, that's a good thing!
We craftsmen rely on our hands to eat. Even without this contract, I often carve something to practice my hands. "Yang Shankui laughed.
