Chapter 1359 Restoration Plan
The two important cultural relics bequeathed by Mr. Li are also one of the must-display contents of this opening. Among them, the Banqiao Speech is in good condition, but the "Baiyang Shitao Painting and Calligraphy Album" Because of its age, it is somewhat damaged and needs to be repaired.
For ancient cultural relics, from calligraphy and painting to architecture, there are two views, one is to repair the old like new, and the other is to repair the old like old.
The former is mostly a traditional Eastern concept, especially in island countries, which have inherited this way to the extreme. Some ancient swords, in particular, are almost as good as the day they were made.
Others, such as the mother-of-pearl and red sandalwood pipa of Zhengcangyuan, the round mirror with mother-of-pearl back, and the blue gold and silver painting box, are all in extremely perfect condition.
When it comes to restoration, Zhou Zhi has his own philosophy. There is a dividing line in his mind, that is, calligraphy and painting before the Ming Dynasty should be restored to look as new as possible; while for paintings and calligraphy after the Qing Dynasty, they should be kept as they were before the Qing Dynasty and should be restored as old as possible.
The reason for this is because Ming Dynasty paintings and previous works themselves have already been full of ancient charm due to the aging of paper, silk, ink and color for many years, and there is no need to deliberately retain water marks and burnt edges. As well as erosion and oxidation marks such as insect infestation and acid etching, they are enough to leave an ancient charm, and there is no need to deliberately "sculpt" the smell.
Things that started in the Qing Dynasty still lack the charm that has accumulated over time, so it is not easy to detract from them. It is better to preserve as much as possible.
But in any case, the aesthetic charm of the restored works is unified throughout. Traditional restoration and "archaeological restoration" learned from the West only focus on archaeological value and do not consider artistic value. Two different things.
A typical example that illustrates the difference between the two styles is bronze ware.
Most of the bronzes that can be seen in museums are rusty, and the original appearance of the bronzes cannot be seen.
But there are also a very small number of them that have managed to escape the ravages of time and retain their original "auspicious gold" qualities.
This type of bronze ware is represented by the tripod (taken away) in the Thirteenth Year of the Western Fourth Dynasty, Shu Wufu's Sword, and Yue King Goujian's Sword. Although there are traces of time, they do not hide their true colors, allowing the human body to experience another kind of bronze ware. Aesthetic sense.
Represented by the restoration of "Baiyang Shitao Painting and Calligraphy Album", Zhou Zhi officially launched the restoration project of Ming Dynasty paintings in the Shu University Museum. It was quite a challenge for him and the team he led at the restoration institute. big project.
Zhou Zhi had already collected a lot of ancient paper, brocade, and silk for restoration before, and with the wood removed from Suihuaxuan this time, he was fully prepared.
The effect that Zhou Zhi wants to achieve is to make the Ming Dynasty scrolls in the Shu Grand Museum old except for the paste, which is new. However, the visual effect he wants to achieve is to make the scrolls as new as new and to be able to taste the antiquity.
The Forbidden City and the National Museum have many "magical works" of this kind of restoration, such as Shen Zhou's "High Picture of Mount Lu" and the landscape axis "The Gathering of Wei Garden", which are among the best.
It is just like what Liang Shizheng wrote on the Qing Dynasty edition of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival": "Sichuan brocade is decorated with gold and jade, and Wu workers gather broken gold".
At first, the school was hesitant about Zhou Zhi’s big move. It was not until the first batch of mid-Qing paintings were restored and sent to the capital for acceptance, and received positive reviews from several parties, that they felt relieved.
In addition, Zhou Zhi also needs to prepare for review and take the final exam.
What's even funnier is that while he is preparing for the exam, he is also preparing to test others. His "Oracle Bone Inscriptions Appreciation" course also has a set of test papers to be released.
I was so busy that Zhou Zhi adjusted the time to go to the calculation center from once a day to once every three days.
However, under such circumstances, Matsui Zuo and Jin Chunyi came to the door again. This time, they are here to discuss cooperation.
"Zhou Sang, how come you have so little time to work in the calculation center during this period?" Matsui managed to stop Zhou Zhi at the Clover Company and showed what he had learned. Traditional Chinese opening gossip: "What are you busy with recently?"
"I'm busy reviewing, the final exam is coming soon." Zhou Zhi shook the books and materials under his arms with the two of them: "If you fail the exam, you won't be able to see Mr. Jiangdong."
"Final... Exam?" Matsui couldn't help but feel dizzy, and he finally accepted the reality that this kid was still a college student.
Judging from the information fed back from China, the angel investor behind Clover is AXA Fund registered in the Cayman Islands and headquartered in Hong Kong Island.
The most frightening thing is that although the investment direction and investment objects of this fund are complicated and complex, it is closely related to Hong Kong Heheng Group and Hongsheng Group. It is personally managed by Jack Lee, a popular "financial genius" in Hong Kong Island. However, the fund shareholder has only one name, George Darwin.
It turns out to be a personal fund!
This fund first came to prominence during the European currency crisis, and then made deep inroads in the information technology sector. Now it has reached its initial harvest period, and it has begun to act as an angel fund to support small companies in various information industries and leading Internet industries.
However, his investment vision is very unique. Big companies such as Microsoft and IBM stocks in the secondary market, and venture capital companies such as Oracle and Clover, all of them have copied the bottom and then made great progress all the way.
The funniest thing is that this fund is not picky. Recently, with the loosening of access to the Chinese stock market, it has started a "rescue" operation, absorbing stocks around 300 points, in line with the three major market rescue measures launched by the country. The policy stabilized the stock market and created an "iron bottom."
As the signs of A-share stabilization become more and more obvious, countless funds that have been waiting and watching have begun to enter the market, and investors are ready to make moves again. It seems that this treasure has been bet correctly by AXA Fund again.
Since AXA Fund is an international fund, it is very familiar with international rules. As Clover’s major sponsor, AXA Fund will guide Clover to avoid some possible detours.
For example, the "intellectual property trap" that causes domestic enterprises to suffer the most.
Many companies in Japan and South Korea initially had the idea of stealing property rights. However, after intelligence research, they were surprised to find that Clover implemented its patent protection extremely perfectly, whether it was the exclusive right to use the agreement Protection, the underlying instruction set of MiniCOS, the two key MD1370 and AC3533 chips of digital players, as well as the appearance and buttons of WinClover, have all applied for patent system protection in most countries in the world that are capable of production.
It can even be thought that the joint cooperation with Microsoft is just a compromise made by Clover in order to enter the European and American markets. If win-win cooperation is not considered, Clover can completely kill the patent, even Microsoft can't even take advantage.
What Japanese and Korean companies do not understand is that doing so will increase huge costs. They have no idea why Clover is so confident in its products that it does not hesitate to transfer its intellectual property rights before putting them on the market. The protection was so "perfect".
However, it turns out that Clover and AXA have made the right bet again, because they have joined forces with Microsoft to allow everyone who has purchased a WinClover player to install a "Format Warehouse" in their Windows system and convert their own Software like converting CD audio to compressed audio.
Nowadays, young people who like music in various cities in Europe and the United States have established exchange organizations in some non-mainstream gathering places such as underground music parks, rock blocks, and nightclubs to exchange knowledge.
Some bold video stores have even started committing crimes, producing batches of records into compressed audio to earn money from copies.
