At the forum, everyone unanimously held that the contents of the "National Standard Development" project of "Shoushan Shitian Huang Appraisal" seriously violated historical facts, disrupted the market order of the industry, and caused extremely bad consequences for the inheritance and protection of Fuzhou's traditional culture.
Chinese arts and crafts master Lin Fei: Shoushan stone carving is my life's work, Shoushan Tian Huang and other Yellowstone as soon as we get started we know the difference. In this contest, the time is very tight, there is no room for delay, and everyone needs to work together and unite to speak out together.
Pan Sisheng, a master of Chinese arts and crafts: The consequences of this matter are very serious, and as a Shoushan stone carver, I must actively cooperate to speak for the industry.
Huang Lijuan, a master of Chinese arts and crafts: I remember that in 2000, there was an academic paper mentioning that "there is no Tian Huangshi in his mountain", which is a very powerful proof. I will work with you to speak out about this matter, and I hope that the government department will give it strong support!
Chen Yijing, a master of Chinese arts and crafts: Shoushan Tian Huang has been handed down from our ancestors to generations, and everyone has united to call on government departments to fight for this matter and establish a real Shoushan Tian Huang identification standard.
Chen Xinfeng, on behalf of The Master of Chinese Arts and Crafts Wang Zuguang, expressed his position at the meeting: Resolutely oppose the concept of "Datian Huang", and everyone must protect the Shoushan Stone Cultural Brand.
Yu Weiping, president of the Fujian Provincial Arts and Crafts Research Institute: This project as a national standard formulation has a very strict procedure, it is impossible not to end, we want to protect the brand of Shoushan Tian Huang the best is to guide the event to the development of the real Shou Shan Tian Huang standard. Because as a standard, it is not only an emotional factor, not only a cultural factor, but also a purely technical factor, so we have to increase the number of development team members through the procedure and really take action.
Chen Shenchen, a former expert of Fujian Provincial Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision: In this game, in addition to humanities, we also have academic and technical support in mineralogy and geology. I think it is absolutely a good thing to set the standard, but this standard should be set to meet the requirements of all of us, some time ago some people wanted to distort this standard, we hope that we will return it, we will clean it up, correct the chaos.
Lan Taihua, associate professor of Fujian Normal University: The Tianhuang brand is a cultural brand in the final analysis, and Shoushan Stone is the top of the cultural pyramid of Mindu, and we must gather everyone's strength to jointly protect it. Shoushan stone to the international road, we must set the standard to uniqueness, the more local is the more international.
Xia Hun, General Manager of Fujian Southeast Auction: Our southeast is an auction platform, so we have contacted a lot of collectors, and collectors have expressed extremely strong dissatisfaction and serious protests about this matter. We in the southeast auction are resolutely resisting the concept of "Datian Huang", and I would like to appeal to everyone not only to resist the concept of "Datian Huang", but also to resist the concept of "Dashou Mountain".
Song Jiwu, director of the Fuzhou Carving crafts factory: The carving factory has received many party and state leaders since Deng Xiaoping, and Tian Huang has always been valued by them. The statement of our carving factory is to support the joint statement of the four major associations and oppose the concept of "Datian Huang" and "Dashoushan".
Wang Yifan, old director of Fuzhou Stone Carving Factory: Shoushan Stone Circle is a good start at a critical moment, and we resolutely oppose the concept of "Datian Huang" and guard the status of Shoushan Stone as the four famous stones.
Li Linhua, director of The Shoushan Stone Appraisal Center of Fuzhou City: Once the "Datian Huang" standard is formulated, it will make the Shoushan stone industry move towards disorderly competition in chaos and decline, which is something that everyone does not want to see, and we resolutely oppose the concept of "Datian Huang" being written into the national standard.
Zhu Hui, deputy to the National People's Congress and master of provincial arts and crafts: As a Shoushan stone carver who has been practicing for more than 30 years, I have stated that we insist on resisting this project and we must maintain our Tianhuangshi culture.
Provincial Arts and Crafts Master Zheng Ze commented: I firmly oppose the concept of "Datian Huang", our Shoushan Stone is a thousand-year-old cultural brand, and people in our industry must work together to protect this brand.
Zheng Shibin, Provincial Arts and Crafts Master: I am very sure that I oppose the concept of "Datian Huang", first of all, the two words Tian Huang, where did the word come from? In fact, looking back, we think that this is only for the word Tian Huang produced by our Shoushan, and we should apply for a patent for this word.
Chen Wenjun, the descendant of Qingzhitian, a century-old shop of Shoushan Stone: Shoushan Stone is one of the three treasures of our Fuzhou, and our descendants must jointly maintain it, so we call on the government to keep this brand and not be infringed by interest groups!
Industry representative Lin Xiaoming: I have been running Shoushan Stone for more than 21 years, in recent days I have received a lot of feedback from collectors, once the concept of "Datian Huang" appears, it is a great harm to collectors in the past, and I now express their voices for collectors. We must go all out to expose the shameless people of interest groups and geological circles, and resolutely resist their bad behavior of selling the TianHuang brand for their personal interests.
Wang Bijin, the former village chief of Shoushan Village: I have been in contact with Tian Huang for more than 40 years, Tian Huang is definitely our Brand of Shoushan, which is the foundation left by our ancestors, and today I am very grateful to everyone for supporting us in Shoushan Tian Huang.
Zhang Tianping, representative of Shoushan Village: I am a merchant and a stone farmer, in the past, when there was no machine, we stone farmers could judge whether it was Tian Huang by touching the feel, let alone now. We Shoushan people should guard our own cultural brand and not let interest groups take advantage of it.
After the national masters, industry representatives, representatives of relevant institutions, and academic experts all spoke at the symposium, the heads of the four industry associations that organized the symposium also made statements at the meeting.
Zheng Youlin, president of the Shoushan Stone Culture Research Association of Fujian Province: This matter makes all of us indignant, we must wait in a strict position, we must speak out, the government will pay attention. We must have practical actions and form a team to support the Chinese Shoushan Stone culture brand. We must persist in resisting this "Shoushan Shitian Huang Appraisal" project, and absolutely cannot allow the concept of "Datian Huang" to appear.
Chen Ji, secretary general of Fuzhou Jin'an Shoushan National Stone Culture Research Association: We are all practitioners engaged in the Shoushan stone industry for decades, and we have always been proud of Tian Huang and Proud of Shoushan Stone, and the Shoushan Stone brand of Tian Huangshi for hundreds of years is the foundation left by our ancestors and cannot be broken in the hands of our generation.
Chen Lizhong, the general convener of the guardian action of the four associations and president of the Fuzhou Shoushan Stone Industry Association, made an important speech at the meeting, he first introduced the situation of entering Beijing two days ago to participate in the Tenth National Congress of the China Folk Writers Association, and conveyed the spirit of the important speech of Huang Kunming, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and director of the Central Propaganda Department. Chairman Chen Lizhong said with great excitement: The attitude of our entire industry association of Shoushan Stone has been very clearly expressed in the Joint Statement, Shoushan Stone is the brand, culture and dignity left to us by the ancestors, and it is the mission of our generation to protect it, and no one is qualified to sell it! Now that it is the moment of the life and death of Shoushan stone culture, the industry cannot turn a blind eye to this, we must take out the spirit of the industry, strengthen the cultural stance, inherit and carry forward the excellent traditions and folk culture. Today we are holding this symposium is the voice of the industry, and we want the government to hear our voice and promote this matter in a reasonable and restrained manner.
The representative of the Jin'an District Government said: The attitude of the Jin'an District Government is very clear, supporting Shoushan Tian Huang, and there is no Tian Huangshi in his mountain. In addition to the emotional and emotional consensus we have reached, we need to implement this work through more practical ways, mechanisms and channels.
Representatives of the industry authorities and the Fuzhou Municipal Bureau of Industry and Information Technology said at the meeting: The government attaches great importance to the Shoushan stone culture, which is one of the four major cultures in Fuzhou, and the concept of stealing Shoushantian Huangshi to confuse the public is to erase the history of Fuzhou. As the competent authority of the Shoushan stone industry, we will not allow such a thing to happen, and we will definitely support the industry!
Ye Shaobo, the host of the symposium and president of the Fujian Provincial Art Industry Association, summed up the meeting. Suggest that we must have confidence and have a way to solve this problem! First of all, this is a dispute over the brand of national traditional culture, and today China needs cultural self-confidence more than ever to compete against other world powers. We are very fortunate that Shoushan stone culture has always been valued by the party and the government, and General Secretary Xi has also made many important instructions for protecting and inheriting Shoushan stone culture, and we must have the confidence to overcome all difficulties to protect the cultural brand of Tian Huang. The second is to have a way, today's meeting was very successful, we also let the industry authorities and the Jin'an District Government hear the voice of our industry, here is both the guidance of experts and the support of the media, I believe we have a way to promote our work step by step. The most valuable thing is that this matter has condensed the hearts of the whole industry, and I hope that through this matter, the people in the Shoushan stone industry can unite and work together to defend the Shoushan stone culture brand.
At the meeting, everyone agreed that this meeting is just the beginning, I believe that the strength of our industry is condensed and united in the same hatred, and we can definitely win the victory in this action of protecting the Shoushan stone cultural brand!
