Lingering complex of Jingdezhen

Jingdezhen is located in northeastern Jiangxi Province, history and Hankou Town, Foshan Town, Zhuxian Town and listed as one of the country's four major towns, is one of the State Council's first batch of 24 historical and cultural cities. Famous for producing porcelain, China's "porcelain capital" of the name.

First, the initial "Jingdezhen" perceptual awareness

"Jingdezhen" the word was first heard in the 1970s, when it was still in the teenage years, listening to the adults chatting after dinner to the

Later, in the late seventies, in the school chose to study liberal arts, naturally, there is a geography class, teaching me geography is a face of gentle and kind, gentle and virtuous character surnamed "Wen" female teacher, face, character and surname coincidentally contain "warm, gentle and gentle "The three organic combination in one person, let me remember, the key is Wen teacher geography class taught very well, had spoken to the Chinese geography of a simple summary, "Remember, Yunnan's individual old abundance of tin, Jiangxi's Jingdezhen abundance of ceramics, Hunan's Lengshuijiang abundance of antimony, Xinjiang's abundance of cotton, the three northeastern provinces of soybeans, Hainan production of natural rubber, Shandong's stone, Shandong's stone, Shandong's stone, Shandong's stone. Hainan produces natural rubber, Shandong's Shishoushou is a coal port ...... ". Wen teacher's words, let me once again on the "Jingdezhen" word has further sensibility and superficial understanding, know is a place name, in porcelain industry has a long history, from then on, the teacher's class inspired my interest in geography, fueled my ambition to hunt for nature, laying the foundation for my love of travel today. At that time I would like to one day must go to Jingdezhen this place to see, in the end it has what kind of history and cultural deposits, and what kind of porcelain world?

Second, Jingdezhen people talk about "Jingdezhen"

In the spring of 1986, with a thirst for knowledge, I participated in the first national adult college entrance exams, on-the-job admitted to the English Department of the Beijing Institute of Foreign Languages, and I was admitted to the Department at the same time as the second secondary school teacher from Jingdezhen, his name is Luo Shaojun!

The friendship between us gradually deepened naturally with the medium of "Jingdezhen". I also observed, not good at talking about his hometown of Jingdezhen will be flamboyant, words like a torrent of open water, wildly diarrhea, sentence can not be separated from the town of Jingdezhen, from the history and culture of modern civilization, from the hometown of soil and water to the porcelain craft ......., fear that you do not understand. I am afraid that you do not understand, he did not speak thoroughly. One day, a student took out a fine porcelain rice bowl for him to see how the texture, did not expect him to see, born out of a look of contempt or disdain look, "What kind of goods? You have not seen a good porcelain, in our Jingdezhen a variety of good porcelain products have gone! He said.

These words let me have an inexplicable interest in Jingdezhen and desire, I can not help but think, Jingdezhen, in the end you have what magic and charm? Let your sons and daughters so for your love, for you to move!

"Jingdezhen, you wait, I must go!" This is my heart.

Third, for the "Jingdezhen" entangled several times stupid

Time does not reveal the passing of a year and a year, step by step every day to go to work and deal with a variety of affairs and household chores and other trivial things. After a series of "irresistible" factors such as mobilization, go abroad, study abroad, take care of sick father, time is also stingy not at their disposal, want to get close to the idea of Jingdezhen can only be put to rest.

2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, four times have made detailed plans, and even tickets have been done, ready to put into action to go into the embrace of Jingdezhen at the time, due to a variety of factors that led to the plan "aborted", action on hold.

Fourth, Jingdezhen, I'm coming!

In April 2013, seize all favorable opportunities, decisively discharged all the interference, to the established goals, to the soul of the place set off. After taking the high-speed rail to Wuhan, change the car to Jiujiang, April 14, 6:30 pm to change the coach to Jingdezhen.

With the wheels racing forward, I have been in a state of anticipation and excitement, from time to time with a little restlessness, after all, I'm about to fulfill my "promise", I want to go into it, read it, recognize it, appreciate it.

Seemingly calm me, my eyes but from time to time gazed out of the car window that movie-like swept through the idyllic scenery and the white walls of Zhenzhen picture, delusion to seem to have been in a dream to see the sights recorded in the brain, until the night shrouded the dome of the sky. A high-speed, Jingdezhen is getting closer and closer, can not hold down the excitement, eyes through the window glass using the light of the street lamps scanning the car in front and around the scene of a thing, "Look, look, the street lamps here are painted ceramics lamp post .....". I nervously woke up my wife, who was already slightly asleep, and pointed to her. The car to Jingdezhen long-distance passenger station is already night 10:30.

Thick night Jingdezhen seems quiet and mysterious. There is an occasional vehicle on the road, and then returned to the calm. Part of the road on both sides of the porcelain store is still brightly lit, in the thick of the night appears unusually bright and warm, although there are no customers in the store, but the open door seems to be ready to welcome you, although it is night. Interesting!

V. Looking for the "ancient kiln" in Jingdezhen

The next morning, the spring is bright and the sun is shining. We looked around the hotel, ah! Do not know, a look at the "shock" a jump, accidentally we live in the ceramic world, the original not far from us, stands a large outdoor steel billboard, which is printed "China Jingdezhen Ceramic World", near the, pectinately arranged with Large and small ceramic stores, really unprecedented scale, let people open their eyes.

We focused our choices on finding the thousand-year-old kilns in Jingdezhen. It is said that Jingdezhen "ancient kiln" has a history of thousands of years, has become a set of ceramic exhibition and ceramic production process as one to the world to show Jingdezhen ceramics gorgeous history and civilization of the window. After someone pointed out, take the second bus in the Junshan station off, the ancient kiln is here.

The peripheral door of the ancient kiln is open, the door on both sides of the use of solid ceramic crafts advertising display, there are pieces of celadon glued to the partial effect of the wall, there is a display of ceramics after the firing of the entity left behind the blank tire. Not far away, there is a ten-meter-high chimney, carved with "ancient kiln folklore exposition area" blue font. Decoration is simple and generous, the theme is prominent, fascinating, quite show the designer's ingenuity.

To go inside reveals a wide open hilly land, along the gentle slope upward there is a width of about eight meters of asphalt path leading to the road, the road on both sides of the space is very large, rows of acacia and unknown trees standing neatly on both sides of the road and the height of the space of the soil slopes, the natural formation of a dense forest.

The trees on both sides of the road welcome guests from afar with their upright stature, rich green color, and the refreshing scent they release. Put in front of the eyes, the branches of the tree centripetal force to the center of the road, the formation of like a natural green umbrella canopy stretches to cover the foot of the road, the leaves of the tree in the sunlight refracted April unique verdant, pleasing to the eye. A bunch of light and shadow, a piece of mottled circles sprinkled on the road.

Both sides of the road from time to time revealed a pile, a stack of firewood, one can not help but think of the ancient kilns burned ceramics used in the firewood, read the text, this road is the history of transportation of the ancient kilns burned ceramics required for the firewood way, "ancient kilns firewood Road".

Six, unintentionally "escape" the ticket

The deeper you go, the fork in the road is more up, randomly on the right side of the road to choose a bamboo trail, the use of "all roads lead to Rome," the thinking that leads us in the direction of the kiln forward.

The road is the only way to get to the kiln.

The road gets narrower and narrower, and the vegetation gets denser and denser, and sometimes you have to "cut through the thorns" to get to the road. Happen to meet a person, hurry up to ask for directions, the person said: "you go to the back of the mountain, along the path, downhill, not far, you can enter the ancient kiln scenic area, but also save to buy 98 yuan of tickets". Thanked the person to point out the way, turn around, the four of us at the same time to steal joy, not the slightest bit of "guilt", we are in the premise of ignorance, reasonably circumvented the ticket, saving 98 yuan.

Seven, "ware has a shape, the beauty of the infinite" ceramic world

Jingdezhen Ceramic History Expo Area by the Jingdezhen Ceramic Museum and the ancient kilns. There are more than 18,000 pieces of ancient ceramic treasures on display. There are traditional pottery crafts demonstration, from the process of pottery to a variety of porcelain firing kiln site, a variety of everything.

If you want to turn Jingdezhen this heavy "history book", need to slowly taste, read carefully.

Into the ancient kiln exposition area, a kiln site to see, a "chapter" a "section" to read. Into the eye is a variety of different ceramics and crafts, people are dazzled. Big has big bold, small has small exquisite, square has square charm, round has round charming, although the shape is not the same, different technology, but burned in the "Jing porcelain" on the pattern whether it is the ancient wood and rocks, bridges and rivers, houses and characters, or birds, fish and insects are so delicate, realistic, each color has a rich layer, pink and soft, beautiful and elegant. Beautiful and elegant. Let a person love and think about it.

To understand Jingdezhen, we must understand its history, from the name of Jingdezhen from the beginning, there are historical data that: "Jingdezhen to the Northern Song Zhenzong Jingde year number for the name, Song Jingde years reset Jingdezhen. 1953 set up Jingdezhen City. Jingdezhen has a long history of porcelain production and is famous for its porcelain.

Jingdezhen, known as the "Porcelain Capital", has a beautiful porcelain, colorful, beautifully decorated. Among them, blue and white porcelain, blue and white exquisite porcelain, pastel porcelain and color glaze porcelain is known as the four traditional porcelain in Jingdezhen. Here, the information recorded on the description of the blue and white porcelain and color porcelain to repeat one or two.

Qinghua porcelain is a painted decorative porcelain, Jingdezhen ceramics in the valuable varieties. There are six or seven hundred years of history, it is oxygenated cobalt as a coloring agent, in the porcelain billet depicting patterns, and then apply a layer of transparent white glaze, into the kiln at a high temperature of about 1,300 degrees once fired. With "porcelain does not break, the color does not fade, no lead poisoning," the characteristics of its pure blue and white porcelain with a clean and moist color effect, known as "the treasures of the world.

Interesting is here I met the ancient kiln celadon porcelain inheritor Xu Yu Boudoir, more coincidentally, she has a younger brother and I have the same name, which is the first time ever and I have the same name, but also really surprised me.

Jingdezhen ceramics in the pastel is a low-temperature glaze appeared at the end of the Kangxi Qing Dynasty, is the color further development and sublimation of the results. In layman's terms, it is to add lead powder to the colored pigment and then paint on the porcelain to make the pattern more three-dimensional. The process of pastel is first fired at high temperatures on white porcelain with ink lines, and then filled with a layer of the pattern can be used as a frit and white color of glass white, color applied to the glass white on top of the low-temperature firing.

Involved in the history of Jingdezhen ceramics, culture, craftsmanship, etc., here can only be used "rich, gorgeous, heavy" is summarized in one word, it can be read as history, to study, but also as a thousand years of inheritance of works of art to taste, to appreciate. I am only in the vast ocean of knowledge about Jingdezhen porcelain pick up a drop of seawater, superficial, lack of professionalism introduced. If I describe the flavorful words and not enough to enjoy, do not hesitate, Jingdezhen also waiting for you yo!

In the face of the beauty of the full of people moved, intoxicated by the porcelain, I can not help but feel, rather than tangible objects, it is the aesthetics of the infinite extension; rather than say it is a porcelain product, rather than that it is endowed with the soul of the work of art. I admire its beauty, the beauty of people convinced, the beauty of people intoxicated, the beauty of people fascinated, because it is in a sense the beauty of people have a mood, there is a space for imagination.

In short, how to praise it is not too much! Because the words of praise in Jingdezhen, especially in praise of Jingdezhen porcelain, always seem so pale and lack of monotonous, stretched, words do not mean.

Who let it is "white as jade, sound as chime, thin as paper, bright as a mirror" affixed with the Jingdezhen business card porcelain it?

If I have not been able to fully express the Jingdezhen and Jingdezhen porcelain praise, please allow me to use the power of He Muyang's "I'm waiting for you in Jingdezhen" prose poems to help you through and appreciate the unique beauty of a mood it!

Hold a handful of kaolin clay and smell you. The more you spin the clearer the past becomes
