A freshwater pearl can reflect the long and splendid Jiangnan culture, and a group of water town farmers can live brilliantly. We came to Qiangtang and walked around. The old town area was perfectly connected with the pearl gem market, and the life of the people was gradually warm and dynamic. Pearl is a permanent topic for the people of Qiangtang. It not only expands the industrial chain, but also polishes the people of this land and water more and more fashionable. Living in such a neighborhood, it is difficult to be happy or not!
Here is the pearl of the sea
There was a white tablecloth in front of it, which was covered with crystal pearls. The 27-year-old Qiangtang woman Wang Xiaolian was sorted under the light. Visitors pass by from time to time, stop to watch, she always stares down at the pearl on the table, and then quickly dial the pearl on the table, the action is clean.
At a jewelry store in the Suzhou International Pearl Trading Center (West Building), more than 10 workers are sorting pearl semi-finished products with a basket of glittering pearls on the side. Different grades of pearls are classified according to color, size, shape and color, and after punching, they can be stringed into necklaces worn by people.
The same look is also focused on the chairman of Changzhou Jingbei Pearl Co., Ltd. Xu Xiaoping. She arrived in Changtang from Changzhou in the morning to purchase goods. By 3 pm, she had already traded with the owner of the goods. The bulging 12 snakeskin bags lean against the wall and are expensive. Xu Xiaoping and his assistants looked at these pearls. Under the light, most of the pearls show silver, and a little is light gray, pink, light gold and so on.
We are a bit puzzled: "Why are you such a big boss, why should you sit here and review it?" She smiled. "That's not it. You see, the amount of goods I buy is so big. I can't help but look at it." The matter." She gave us a common sense. The most important standard for evaluating pearls is the first gloss, and the good gloss is revealed by the inside, which is tempting. The fewer spots on the surface of the pearl, the higher the value, the more flawed the bead, the price difference is not a little bit.
Entering the first floor of China Pearl Gem City, we can't help but feel that the pearls here are so vast. After the entry, there are booths on both sides. Pearl necklaces, bracelets, ornaments, etc. let you wrap in the jewels. Strolling to the "Jiangnan Mingzhu" head office, our eyes are bright, golden yellow, black pearls, purple, all kinds of colors. Zhang Huiming, general manager of the store, said that China is a big freshwater pearl country, accounting for 95% of the world's production. The color is mostly white, and the price cannot be lifted in the international market. Due to various restrictions, most of the jewellery operators in Qiangtang no longer cultivate pearls, but purchase raw beads from all over the country for processing. However, "Jiangnan Mingzhu" has always insisted on controlling quality from the source. It has set up pearl breeding bases in Kunshan, Anhui and other places, continuously improved farming technology, and established Haizhu R&D base in the Pacific island country of Tahiti, which is a high-end pearl crafts. The design provides a wide range of raw materials.
From "snacks" to industry leaders
Qutang jewelry has become famous all over the world. For many business owners, pearls have already melted into their lives. Zhang Huiming is one of them.
At the age of 18, Zhang Huiming began to “smash the suitcase†in the pearl market, which means that he has no capital, and he has won a lot of agency fees between Zhunong and Zhuzhou. After doing it for two years, he did not make any money, but he was very clear about the inside door, so he decided to start a business. In 1990, he only had 1,000 yuan in his hand. In the way of debts, he entered a batch of loose beads. He picked colors, punched, beaded and processed into necklaces at home. The first batch of necklaces were sold out and made a small profit. In this way, the purchase, processing, sales, snowball development. By the year 2000, he and his wife, Wang Weijuan, opened a "mother and wife shop" in the Qiantang Pearl Market, and the string necklaces became famous.
In 2005, China Pearl Jewelry City opened, the couple were bold and took the best booth in the market. Wang Weijuan also taught English to deal with foreigners and contacted the business online. He cooperated with the Pacific Island Daxi Haizhu Aquaculture Base to develop. A high quality raw material channel for pearl jewelry. Gradually, 90% of their store business comes from foreign companies. They also registered the trademark “Jiangnan Mingzhuâ€, invited professional designers, and also cooperated with universities and research institutes in industry, university and research institutes.
“Jiangnan Mingzhu†won the first freshwater pearl champion pearl in 2005 and is now the leading brand in the Chinese jewelry industry. Two months ago, Jiangsu Pearl Association changed its term and Zhang Huiming was elected president. But he is very awake. He said that the Qutang Pearl and even the Jiangsu Pearl are not the only ones. In the future, the association will regularly organize personnel to carry out research on the status quo of the pearl industry, find out the situation of Jiangsu pearl culture water surface, aquaculture quantity, processing and sales, talent distribution, etc., relying on China Pearl Gem City and Suzhou Jewelry International Trading Center to conduct online marketing and brand strategy training. And new products release, etc., to polish the fashion brand of Qiangtang Pearl.
Pearl Lake Plaza is very popular
In the afternoon, the sun shone in the jade community. The 79-year-old Wang Laobo went out with a cup of tea. He took a small step and strolled around the Pearl Lake Book Fair. He gathered with a group of old friends and listened for two hours.
Wang Laobo originally lived in two cottages in the countryside. The industrial chain of the Qintang pearl gemstone became more and more prosperous, and the market became bigger. After the demolition of the rural house, the old couple moved into a new community and had social security benefits. Now, they sometimes help their children to do some odd jobs and enjoy old age.
Outsiders go to Qiangtang, "Go to Pearl City during the day and visit Pearl Lake at night." Locals are no exception, and Pearl Lake Plaza has become the most popular place in the town. Every morning, the residents gather here, dancing, aerobics, tai chi, and the morning exercise atmosphere is very strong. In the evening, it is more lively. There are often some performances in the town, including dance, songs, Xi Opera, Shanghai Opera, and other 10 local art programs. It attracts more than a thousand people to watch, laugh and laugh.
Zhang Qi, the general manager of China Pearl Gem City, often talks with the guests about the unique memories of the Jiangnan water town. Since the 1980s, the whole population of pearls in the Qiangtang and Beiqiao areas, as long as there is a pond, there must be beads. Her mother has dealt with pearls for the rest of her life, and she has helped her family with a 1% commission. This is still the case in her 60s. Even the children are deeply influenced. She remembers that when she was 8 years old, in 1982, she followed the big children and children to pick up the pearls and exchange them for money. In the evening, the adults held the pearls in one hand and the flashlight in the other, and rushed to the agreed river to conduct the transaction. Later, the trading market went from straw sheds, wild fields, glass sheds to today's professional markets. Like the pearl treasure jade, the people of Qiangtang have been polished, and their lives have become more and more beautiful. It is also the epitome of Jiangnan culture.
