At this time, Qian Cheng, who was concentrating on driving, said, "boss Chu, I also know some friends here. Would you like to ask your friends to give me a copy of each other's information?"
"Thank you, brother Qian!"
Chuchen agreed with a smile. Although he had already guessed, there are many experts in the folk. The possibility that they are not the same person is also very high. Let Qian Cheng help, maybe there will be a surprise.
So Chu Chen called Lin Shengfu and asked him to fax the man's information to his kiln.
Between talking and laughing, Qian Cheng's car came to chuchen's kiln gate.
When Chu Chen arrived at the kiln, Liu Yushu, the factory director appointed by Chu Chen, had already brought a staff member to meet them at the door.
After getting out of the car, Chu Chen shook hands with Liu Yushu, and then asked, "Lao Liu, have you received all the seniors?"
Because the kiln was not big and there were not many people, Chu Chen only provided a car for the kiln to pick up several old masters and a pickup truck for delivery. It is precisely because the car went to pick up several elders that Chu Chen got into trouble today.
But I didn't expect to encounter porcelain bumping again today. Chu Chen wondered if he would give the kiln a more high-end business car, so as to avoid the next time Qian Cheng would pick up the kiln, there would be some evil moths.
Moreover, it is necessary to buy another business car, because with the success of imitation of Mao porcelain, the kiln has to imitate other ancient porcelain varieties. In this way, the current kiln seems to be too small. The scale must be expanded, and the two cars are too few.
In addition, there should be a lot of business negotiation customers today and in the future. The pick-up and drop off must be carried out by car. It will be inconvenient if there is no business car at that time. So just take precautions and buy it first.
"They're all here. They're having a rest in the reception room." Liu Yushu said with a smile.
"Well, let's go in and talk about it..."
When they came to the reception room, they saw Du Hou and Qian Cheng's grandfather, Qian Lao, chatting over tea.
After exchanging greetings for a while, Du Hou asked, "Xiao Chu, I heard you met a porcelain bumper. Are you ok?"
"Nothing..." Chuchen laughs and repeats what happened just now. They shake their heads and sigh that they are lawless.
Du Hou sighed: "speaking of it, I know the general manager too. I don't think it's good to be a person. People around me have good reviews. But as a son, he's not as good as a dog. It's a pity to think about him."
"Ha ha, his son is his. I don't believe he has no responsibility to teach him this virtue." Qian doesn't agree with Du Hou's words. Among the victims, there is his grandson. You Dao hates the house and the house, and he doesn't like the general manager.
Knowing that Qian was in love with his grandson, Du Hou changed the topic with a smile and talked about the imitation of Mao porcelain.
It takes a lot of time and money, and the research is also very tortuous. If it wasn't for the insistence of several elders, plus the reference of Chu Chen's authentic pieces, and the investment of a large amount of money, as well as the factors of luck and so on, let alone half a year, it would be no surprise that even one or two years of success.
Speaking of the end, Du Hou jokingly said: "Xiao Chu, you are comfortable to be the shopkeeper. We are miserable to stay here!"
Chuchen quickly with a smile to Du Hou they arched his hand, said with a smile, will remember the credit, in addition, he will give you a rich reward to show thanks.
Everyone is not a saint. Since Fu Zhisuo, Du Hou's teachers, apart from being invited by Mr. Liu and being very interested in Mao porcelain, the material aspect is also an important factor, not to mention Liu Yushu and the kiln workers.
Therefore, after listening to what Chu Chen said, everyone's face showed a happy look and quickly said that they should.
Since the kiln had successfully imitated Mao porcelain, Chu Chen had to go and have a look.
Next, Liu Yushu took you to the product exhibition room of the kiln. In the most prominent position of the exhibition room, there was a set of imitation Mao porcelain tea sets, including a waist drum teapot, four waist drum teacups, four saucers, one tea can, two victory cups and four horseshoe teacups.
As mentioned earlier, the characteristics of Mao porcelain are white as jade, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, and sound like a chime. The tea set in front of us fully embodies these four characteristics, and the painting of patterns is no less than the real one.
It can be said that if the tea set is not too hot and looks like a new product, and the porcelain has the taste of Chu Chen porcelain yizhai, it is no different from the real Mao porcelain. If you get rid of the style recognition and make it old, it's hard to find that this set of tea set will be an imitation unless you also have the ability.
Of course, these things are also sold as high-end imitations. Chu Chen won't do that kind of thing.
Chu Chen was not satisfied with such a thing. He praised it with a smile, and then asked:"Lao Liu, what's the annual output of such products?"
Liu Yushu was embarrassed when he heard that he said: "boss, it's hard to find materials for products like this. Moreover, we can only make them by hand now, and the success rate is not very high. One year's output is really limited..."
Speaking of this, he gave a general figure and said that according to the current technology, it is unlikely to be further improved.
Chu Chen pondered for a moment, then asked: "if we expand production, how much can we increase production?"
Du Hou said: "Xiao Chu, the main bottleneck of production is actually the raw materials. With the storage capacity of raw materials, even if you completely purchase the raw materials, the output will increase in recent years. What will happen after these years?"
"Is there any alternative material?" Chu Chen asked.
"There are alternative materials, but only up to nine." Liu Yushu returned.
"Nine achievements is enough!"
Chu Chen's face brightened when he heard the words. He took an imitation cup and said, "good things. It's not expensive. Now one year's production is enough. In addition, if it's made of new materials, make dozens of water tests first. If the guests can accept it, make more."
Liu Yushu asked, "boss, are you only going to sell it in your store?"
Chu Chen nodded and said, "yes, for the time being, I don't plan to act for others."
Listen to Chu Chen say so, Liu Yushu showed concern, how many sales can a store have a year? Besides, customers may go to Beijing in order to buy a set of imitations, right? In addition, even if these things are sold at a high price, the price can't be out of line. Besides the salary and various expenses, the kiln can't make much money a year.
Although he was not the real boss of the kiln, since Chu Chen appointed him as the factory director, he always had to consider this aspect.
When Chu Chen saw Liu Yushu's worried look, he immediately understood his idea and said with a smile, "Lao Liu, can't our kiln only make imitation wool porcelain?"
"What do you mean?" Liu asked
Chuchen laughed and said with pride: "since imitation of wool porcelain has been successful, we can start the next research. My goal is to imitate the porcelain of song, yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties successfully! With more products, we can set up exclusive stores. "
"I believe that with the improvement of people's living standards in the future, high-grade antique porcelain will be welcomed by everyone, and then we can open exclusive stores all over the country, even all over the world!"
Hearing this, Liu Yushu understood why Chu Chen didn't plan to let others act as an agent for Mao porcelain. At the same time, his heart was full of longing. If he could really become the manager of a national or even world-famous enterprise, his life would be worth it!
After hearing Chu Chen's heroic words, Du Hou said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, you have a good idea, but what about the formula of porcelain clay? If you can't make the right clay, even with the technological process, you can't make realistic antique porcelain. "
Chuchen said with a smile: "I will entrust a powerful research institute in China to study the porcelain clay formula. Now we can do what we can, but I don't know if you are willing to come to me as a consultant?"
Several elders looked at each other. After a while, Du Hou said, "anyway, I have nothing to do at home. While I can still move, I'll give full play to some residual heat."
Next, Qian also agreed. Only master Li said that his health was not as good as before, and declined chuchen.
Chu Chen has some regrets about this. Master Li has excellent painting skills. If he can promise or help to bring some apprentices, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to the development of the kiln.
However, since the other party refused, Chu Chen had no choice but to say that he would always open the door for Master Li.
Next, the party followed Liu Yushu to the workshop for a turn, and then returned to the reception room. After Chu Chen had said some ideas for the future, it was almost time for dinner, and everyone was ready to take a bus to the hotel Liu Yushu had ordered in advance.
Just then, a kiln worker came in in a hurry.
"Mr. Chu, this is the fax just sent. Please have a look."
Chu Chen received the fax, which was sent by Lin Shengfu. It was Kang Yonghui's information about the seller. However, when he saw the seller's sketch, he couldn't help but be stunned. It seems that this person is the same character as the dogleg who followed Quan Shao just now, right?
Wu Ke came over to have a look and said softly, "Gee! This guy should be the one just now. Look at the big mole on the corner of his mouth, and the pair of ears that catch wind. I'm sure he can't be wrong! "
Chu Chen gave the fax to Qian Cheng and Hu Yong, who said it should be the guy.
Seeing this, Du Hou asked curiously what was going on. Chu Chen gave a brief introduction to Kang Yonghui
