At the Intangible Cultural Heritage Base, anchors were attracted by the variety of intangible cultural heritage exhibits. Black copper walking silver, sugar painting, embroidery, paper cutting... Everyone stopped and admired it. At the sugar painting booth, Wang Mulin, an anchor from Egypt, couldn't help but "move his hands" and successfully made "a fish" under the guidance of the staff.

Wang Cuiyang, a reporter from the Bengali Language Department of the Asia-Africa Center of Taiwan, learned how to knead dough, roll out the skin, wrap the filling, and personally experienced the joy of making a handful of delicacies. Eating rice and basking in the sun, the anchors seem to feel the comfortable life of Kunming people.
Tips: Guandu 粑粑 has enjoyed a high reputation as early as the Ming and Qing dynasties, the earliest originated in the Guandu area, so there is a saying of Guandu 粑粑. In the 1950s and 1960s, Guandu people used their backs to carry freshly cooked rice dumplings to the streets and alleys to sell. Guandu rice dumpling was first called flax cake, which is a fine and plump flax seed and stir-fried over fire, wrapped in a strong dough, and baked in an oven.

Picking up the small hammer on the table, the anchors began to clang and beat, personally completing this intangible cultural heritage work of their own. Watching the small spoon in their hands gradually take shape, the anchors danced excitedly, "It's really great to be able to make it by hand, and I will always cherish this precious gift." ”

The existing "Golden Master Wu Copper Walking Silver" production technique and its secret recipe can be verified in Shiping County, Yunnan during the Qing Yongzheng Period, with a history of about 280 years. It takes black copper as the tire, engraves various pattern patterns on the tire, and then melts the pure silver (or gold) into the notche of the pattern pattern, uses high temperature and chemical treatment to make silver (or gold) and copper into one, and then after cooling, polishing, polishing, blackening and other technical treatment, the bottom copper naturally becomes black, revealing a silver (or gold) pattern, showing a black and white (or black and yellow) distinct decorative effect, the production of vases, incense burners, four treasures of the study room, wine, tea utensils and other colors are antique, elegant and chic. Because it is generally mainly based on silver, it is called black copper silver.
Fifth stop: Yunzi Chess Academy
At the Yunzi Chess Academy, looking at the exquisite Yunzi in front of them and listening to the stories of Yunzi in the history of Chinese Go, the anchors praised them one after another. Watching the black chess pieces in their hands turn transparent dark green under the sunlight, the anchors could not help but marvel at the brilliance of the skills. In the production room, the anchors personally experienced the firing process of Yunzi, drops, it seems not difficult, but after the experience, they know that this takes years of tempering, just like Yunzi, in the persistence of the historical glory, in the development of quenching and rebirth.
Tips: Yunzi production technology began in the Tang Dynasty in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, using Yunnan unique agate, purple stone and other natural mineral raw materials, through the ancient kiln firing and unique handmade techniques drip made of shape, its material ratio for the secret formula, the production technology is divided into 12 processes, the texture of the chess pieces is moist, extremely hard, black as ink, white as jade, warm in winter and cool in summer, is recognized as a sacred product in chess from ancient times to the present. Yunzi's craftsmanship was lost before liberation. After the founding of New China, the restoration of Go in Yunnan was highly valued by the party and state leaders. In 1965, Chen Xibo successfully resumed the trial production of "Yunzi" and carried out small batch production. In 1975, the raw material formula and production process of "Yunzi" were successfully restored in Kunming, and the first batch of perfect quality chess pieces was trial-produced, so that Yunzi, which had been lost for decades, was born, and the Yunnan Go Factory was founded.
