Chapter 1158: Form a team to compete
In the past, whether a cultural relic restorer could make money mainly depended on the number of cultural relics that needed to be restored in the museum.
Some remote museums themselves do not have much funding, and the cultural relics inside are a little bit worn. They claim to be antique, but in fact they cannot afford to repair them.
As for the museums in Beijing, whether it is the National Museum or the Palace Museum, they have sufficient funds, and in order to better restore history, they can allocate special funds to repair certain damaged cultural relics.
Many restorers want to work in these two museums, and the museums also lack talents for cultural relic restoration.
There is a paradox here.
Without experience, the level of a cultural relic restorer cannot be improved.
Museums need high-level cultural relic restorers, not just fake staff.
They just lack experience, so they want to work in museums in big cities.
Therefore, there is also a serious Matthew effect in this industry.
The cultural relic restorers at the top not only enjoy high-end salaries, but also come into contact with a large number of cultural relics. They have to perform cultural relic restoration work every day. Practice makes perfect, and their level will naturally improve.
Most of the cultural relic restorers in the middle and lower regions are still at the level of subsistence and clothing.
Many people were preparing to change careers. At this time, the organizer of the Cultural Relics Restorers Conference came up with an idea.
That is to set up training schools.
I originally thought that literati were rich in wealth, but now it's different.
With the introduction of new economic concepts, the number of cultural relic restorers willing to enter the market has also increased significantly.
If a training school can be established, cultural relic restorers like them at the bottom will have the opportunity to make money.
In the future, museums can also recruit directly from training schools to avoid being fished in troubled waters in the market.
Therefore, this exchange meeting was a success.
The exchange meeting will be held at the Beijing Art Institute.
Sooner or later, the restoration work of cultural relics will come into public view, so there is nothing to hide.
In the National Museum.A woman in a white coat looked melancholy.
The researcher who returned from the port city brought him news.
Tell him that his paintings are on display at the Municipal Museum.
She thought the good news would make her happy, but she didn't smile excitedly at all.
Instead, his face became more gloomy.
Other cultural relic restoration workers were busy back and forth in the museum.
Their faces were all decorated with festive colors, as if they were celebrating a festival.
In fact, the exchange meeting for cultural relic restorers is no different from other conferences.
At the exchange meeting, you can see collections from other museums and learn new restoration knowledge.
At the same time, there will be a competition after the exchange meeting.
Their National Museum has won the championship for two consecutive years.
Other museums simply cannot compare to their level.
In one more day, they will have one more championship.
The rewards of the cultural relic restoration competition are also very generous. After winning No. 1 last year, each of them received a technical bonus of 1000 yuan.
This money is enough for them to improve their family's life.
Moreover, after listening to this exchange meeting, in order to open a training school for cultural relic restoration, we must select the best among them to serve as the principal, director of training and other positions of the training school.
Therefore, they behaved more enthusiastically than before.
"Yang Mingwei, we must win the championship in this cultural relic restorers conference."
The director patted Yang Mingwei on the shoulder. She was the ace restorer of the National Museum.
She has restored countless cultural relics, especially cultural relics from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. After her hands, they are no different from the original works.
Even the curator was shocked when he saw it.
Yang Mingwei did not reply to him, but walked away.
If it were any of his other cultural relic restorers, they would have been fired by the director long ago.
But she was different. She was not only the trump card of the cultural relics restoration institute, but also a technician who was personally recruited from the port city by the director of the National Museum. Others could not afford to offend her.
The director had no choice but to vent his anger on the other cultural relic restorers: "The competition is about to start, why are you still wasting your time?"
Others also knew about his temper and could only ignore it.
Tang Lanxuan told them the details of the Cultural Relics Restorers Conference in the office.
"Although I did not participate in the exchange, I was invited as a guest to visit twice."
"The Ministry of Culture and Culture attaches increasing importance to the restoration of cultural relics. This year, Han Lei will be invited to serve as the final judge."
"Oh, by the way. Maybe you don't know who Han Lei is, right? He is the earliest veteran expert in cultural relic restoration, and his status in the circle is similar to Mr. Qin."
"Of course, you don't have to worry that he will miss the mark. Except for Han Lei, the other judges who came to the scene to serve as finalists are also professional restorers from major museums."
"After listening to this conference, there will be reporters from the TV station to report on the spot, which shows that the above attaches great importance to this conference."
Tang Lanxuan explained the general situation to the two of them, but the specific rules could only be understood at the venue.
Wu Qingniu used to be a second-hand dealer, recycling inconspicuous cultural toys from other people's hands. After repairing them, he could often sell them for five times the recycling price.
Moreover, he has a vicious eye and has a certain level of treasure appraisal.
During the ten years he has been in this business, he has made a lot of money by reselling cultural toys.
The previous money was spent on treating his grandson, but now his wish was fulfilled. In order to repay Lin Ran's life-saving grace, he gave up his previous job and accepted the invitation as a restorer of cultural relics in the Palace Museum.
Lin Ran actually had other plans, to go abroad to steal cultural relics, at least after completing the mission of the Ministry of Culture and Culture.
Now, it would be better to place it in the National Palace Museum.
On the one hand, it can provide him with a reasonable identity.
On the other hand, for this conference, all the contestants have actually already registered.
Only top museums like the National Palace Museum have the opportunity to replace staff before the conference begins.
Of course, the replaced cultural relic restorer also had no objections.
Instead, he seemed relieved.
Because I participated in the cultural relic restoration conference, I couldn't learn the skills of cultural relic restoration at all.
He looked down upon the expertise of museums from small places.
But what he wanted to learn, others refused to teach him.
What made him most uncomfortable was the final cultural relic restoration competition. While he was still studying the materials, the restorers of the National Museum had already completed the restoration of the cultural relics.
This made him feel very frustrated. He originally didn't want to go this year, but every museum had to send cultural relic restorers to participate.
Now that Wu Qingniu has replaced him, he can't even thank him enough, let alone compete with him for a seat.
