    After listening to Fei Lao's introduction to the opening of a private museum in the capital, Chu Chen fell into deep thought.  For Chu Chen, the first thing is to ask his uncle Zhao Qirui or his second brother Chu Junfeng to help solve the problem.  Articles 2, 3 and 6 have no problem at all for him.  The key point is the fourth one. It is definitely impossible for him to have a bachelor's degree or above and more than two years of museum management work experience. As for expertise in related fields, he does have it, but how to define it when applying is a question for him.  Somewhat confused.  "Mr. Fei, how will we define experts in this related field?" Mr. Liu said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this. When you apply, just hand in the expert certificate."  "Hearing that this is the case, Chu Chen has nothing to worry about. As for the fifth item, he needs to think about it carefully.  These days, although three-legged toads are hard to find and there are many people with two legs, it is not so easy to find relevant professionals.  " Moreover, many of Chu Chen's cultural relics are priceless treasures. He doesn't want to recruit a pickpocket guy who will spend all day and night trying to find ideas for his collection.  But Chu Chen is not in a hurry about this matter. With his connections in the antique industry, he can still find several experts with professional skills.  What he is most concerned about now is the location of the museum.  He is not worried about the reputation of the museum and owns so many national treasures. But with the reputation, the location selection of the museum cannot be careless.  I don¡¯t know how many people will be lost if the museum is built in a corner, right?     but.  This was not the time to think about these things. After Chu Chen came back to his senses.  Then listen to Mr. Fei¡¯s introduction.  Afterwards, Mr. Fei briefly explained the country¡¯s policies and regulations.  Basically, the regulations just mentioned are not much different, and there is no problem for Chu Chen.  After Mr. Fei finished explaining the application process, Chu Chen quickly thanked you: "Mr. Fei, thank you so much. With your introduction, I saved a lot of time." "This is just a simple effort.  " Mr. Fei shook his head with a smile: "I should be the one who wants to thank you. With your help, I have saved a lot of advertising expenses." Mr. Liu chuckled when he heard this.  Said: "Old Fei, if this is the case, shouldn't you show some sincerity?" "Of course it should be!" Fei Lao pondered for a while and said: "Otherwise, if Xiao Chu's piano  Is it a genuine one or a replica with excellent sound quality? How about I replace it with the ice string made by Li Defu? "Is it the legendary ice string?" Liu Sizhe asked.  asked with a surprised face.  The Bingxianqin Liu Sizhe mentioned is a famous ancient Qin. It is said that its strings are made of ice silk.  When Mr. Liu heard this, he sneered: "Don't you memorize so much knowledge about Guqin? You don't even know about Bingxian?" Seeing Liu Sizhe's embarrassed look, Chu Chen smiled and asked: "You should know the ancient  At that time, they used silk strings, right?" "I know." Liu Sizhe nodded.  Today, the strings used to play the piano are generally steel strings.  In ancient times, strings were made of silk.  It is said that silkworms are the most clever and can often form cocoons when they encounter objects.  There was a widow.  Living alone in a room, leaning on a pillow all night long.  Can't sleep peacefully.  She leaned on the bedside and watched the silkworms in her neighbor's house making cocoons through the hole in the wall.  the next day.  The shape of the silkworm cocoons is somewhat similar to the face of this widow, with a vaguely sad face.  When Cai Yong saw it, he bought the silkworm cocoon, reeled it into silk and made it into strings, which he placed on the guqin.  When played, the sound of the piano always carries a sad and mournful sound, and when others listen to it, they often shed tears of sympathy.  Cai Yong asked his daughter Cai Wenji about the reason, and Wenji replied: "This is widow's silk." "Si" has the same pronunciation as "thinking", and the widow's thoughts are of course sad, gentle, and lingering.  This story also illustrates a problem: the strings of the guqin are made of silk, which is tough and has pure pronunciation.  Chu Chen said: "Before the Song Dynasty, most guqin strings were made by qin players, and after the Ming Dynasty, they were mostly commercial strings. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the first generation Li Shiying began to produce ancient qin strings in the Ming Dynasty. The strings he made were called 'ice strings', designated  "It was passed down by the Li family for more than 300 years, until the ninth generation grandson Li Defu died without heirs during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, so the production was discontinued, but the quality was not as good as before. In 1939, at the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, Hangcheng Lao  Santai's "" was discontinued. For a time, many piano players lamented that there would no longer be good strings available. " After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Liu Sizhe finally understood what Bingxian meant. He said, "Not all of them are used now.  Do you have steel strings? Xiaoyue¡¯s piano has steel strings, and they sound pretty good to me!¡± ¡°So??I would say you are playing the piano to a cow.  " Mr. Liu just wanted to pick on Liu Sizhe today. He said: "Although steel strings are durable and stable, especially the advantages of smooth surface, it has changed the performance of some slow piano music with "less sound and more rhyme", such as "Pingsha Luoyan"  ¡±, ¡°Remembering an Old Friend¡±, and ¡°Good Night Introducing¡± are praised by qin players.  But its annoying metallic sound, its overly long aftertaste and other shortcomings are also the consensus of most piano players.  ¡± Liu Sizhe also argued rationally: ¡°Traditional silk strings also have many shortcomings. In addition to the disadvantages that the strings are not as smooth as steel strings and have loud friction, their performance is also not stable enough and is greatly affected by temperature and humidity.  Not durable and expensive to use.  And if nothing else, can silk strings be as loud as steel strings?  " Mr. Liu didn't expect that Liu Sizhe remembered it quite clearly. This showed that Liu Sizhe really studied hard, which made him secretly very happy. However, he was a supporter of silk strings and immediately retorted: "Although the volume of steel strings is  It is large, but it does not have the full sound quality and strength of traditional silk strings. It lacks the 'graininess' and 'bone strength' of traditional silk string playing, and the sound of the piano is in a 'tired' state.  Whether the strings are played hard or lightly, their condition is the same, and there is no doubt that this state affects the expressiveness of the music.  " "The important thing is that the timbre produced by steel strings lacks the nostalgic 'charm' of traditional piano music that is very close to the human voice, that is, the warm and humane color of silk strings.  When I first heard the sound of steel strings, I thought it was quite harsh. I don¡¯t know how people today accept it.  Liu Sizhe muttered: "Let me tell you, this matter is still your problem. If you had opposed it at the beginning, steel strings would not have been accepted so easily."  " Mr. Liu sighed after hearing this. The conversion from silk strings to steel strings could be said to have been completed quietly. The reason for this was not only that he could not make good silk strings for a while, but also because he was in the middle of the country at that time.  In a special period, steel strings functioned as a new thing, and no one dared to object (To be continued)
