After finally stepping down, Deputy Director Jin was so nervous that he wiped his hands in a cold sweat. He is relatively introverted, and although his sculpture skills are high, he is not good at expressing himself. He had to speak on the stage in front of hundreds of people for two consecutive hours.
, this was the first time in his life. In the past, most of the time he came on stage was to appear and take photos as a representative of advanced workers.
When he arrived at the new office, he looked at the boss's desk, which was more than three meters long and nearly two meters wide, and the leather sofa opposite. He suddenly felt as if he was in a dream. He thought to himself, the Xiang family father and son are really good to him, so he must be beautiful.
Only by showing off your skills can you be worthy of the wages and benefits they offer you.
Dinner was a corporate dinner. Many county bureau leaders came during the dinner. Director Zhang from the Tourism Bureau came over with a smile and toasted: "I heard from my friends that your explanation about jade and gemstones this morning was amazing.
I am particularly interested in the seven effects of gems you mentioned. Can you explain them to us during the dinner?"
He humbly said: "There, there, how dare I try to do anything in front of the director."
"Don't hide your secrets, let everyone gain knowledge and help you drink." Director Zhang raised his glass to the people at the table and said: "Let's toast to Director Jin."
Most of you here are reputable people, and you all have several pieces of jewelry packed in boxes at home. Some are family heirlooms, and some are gray gifts from others. They are kept at home and cannot be exposed to light. I heard that there is a simple method to identify whether they are gemstones. Naturally,
I was interested, so I responded with a bang and raised my glass.
"Then, let me just talk about it and serve some wine to all the leaders." Seeing the hospitality, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, then turned the glass over and began to introduce: "The first one is called the starlight effect.
, refers to the phenomenon that a gem with an arc-cut surface displays intersecting four, six, or twelve star-like rays of light when illuminated by light. The reason for this effect is that there are many parallel needles arranged inside the gem.
Shape inclusions.
The second type is called the cat's eye effect, which refers to the bright light band appearing on the crystal surface when the curved crystal is illuminated by light. When the crystal is turned, the light band moves like a cat's slender pupil, which is called the cat's eye effect or play-of-color effect. The third type is called the discoloration effect. Crystals show different colors under different light sources such as sunlight or lights (lights rich in red light), which is called the discoloration or color-changing effect of crystals.
The fourth type is called the play-of-color effect, also known as the play-of-color effect. That is, under the illumination of white light, the same crystal ring displays multi-color changing flashes at the same time. When the crystal or light source is turned, it can be seen that the color of the crystal is constantly changing.
, sparkling and charming, with various color spectrums of red, orange, yellow, green, etc.”
Director Zhang happened to be wearing a crystal diamond ring on his hand. He held it in his hand and looked at it under the light according to what he said. Sure enough, the phenomenon he said appeared.
On the side, Director Li from the Technical and Economic Committee saw it and said: "Director Zhang, let me tell you how much your diamond ring is worth."
"It's just over a thousand years old. It was a souvenir from the last exchange with Zhangjiajie." Director Zhang nervously took off the diamond ring and put it in his pocket, as if he was afraid that everyone would find it.
The crowd laughed after seeing it and turned their attention back to Deputy Director Jin. He continued: "The fifth type is the moonlight effect. Moonstone is microcline feldspar with lattice-like twin crystals.
A group of twin crystal patterns that are approximately perpendicular to each other, scattering the incident light, and the dense scattered light is concentrated together, showing a hazy halo color, like moonlight, so it is called the moonlight effect. Microcline feldspar with moonlight effect is called moonstone.
”
At this time, Westward Journey was being broadcast on TV. Webmaster Yang stood up and said jokingly: "Is Zixia Fairy's Moonlight Box made of moonstone?"
"Maybe." Deputy Director Jin nodded and said, "The sixth type is the Venus effect. When a transparent or translucent crystal contains many opaque tiny solid inclusions inside, it will be reflected by light under the irradiation of light.
Sparkling, also known as placer gold effect, such as Venus quartz, etc. The seventh type is called luminous effect. Gems with fluorescence or phosphorescence are called luminous gems. Among them, gems with strong phosphorescence are commonly known as "night pearls". For example, the red fluorescence of rubies, white
The blue fluorescence of tungsten ore, the blue phosphorescence of diamond, etc."
Amid the admiration, everyone at the table stood up and toasted him, saying: "With the level of a gold factory director, it would be a pity not to go to Myanmar to gamble on stones."
He quickly stood up and thanked him and said: "Betting on stones is about quality, not authenticity. How can I gain access to the Fang family with my little knowledge? I can make more exquisite pieces of colored stone inlays to promote tourism in Xianju."
, I’m very happy.”
At this point, Director Zhang seemed to have remembered something. He picked up his wine glass and said, "Director Jin, I have something to discuss with you. Have you heard about our national gift?"
Director Jin is engaged in handicrafts, which have something in common with national gifts. After thinking about it, he replied to Director Zhang: "I know a little bit about gifts exchanged between heads of state, heads of government, or in the name of the country and the national government.
, Asian countries often give antiques or well-bred horses; African countries like to give ivory inlaid with gems; South American countries like to give away armor inlaid with agate. The national gifts given by Italian leaders are works by the art master Michelangelo.
Silver replica; the British Prime Minister presented a vessel with British symbols specially made for the guests, and it is absolutely the same. Gold-plated orchids are specially selected gifts prepared by the Singapore government for leaders’ visits. China’s carved lacquer, ceramics, cloisonne
, ivory carving, embroidery and other handicrafts are frequent items in the gift list."
"The state owns the national gift, and the county has the county gift. Our tourism bureau has an idea to promote the development of Xianju tourism and make a county gift from a handicraft that can represent the characteristics of Xianju." Director Zhang paused for a while and said: "The county
Among the tourism products here, recycled silver and handicrafts are more distinctive. We have discussed choosing one of silver products or colored stone inlays for design. Can you give me an idea and give me some advice?"
County ceremony? Never heard of it. This is definitely the first of its kind in the country. He suggested to Director Zhang out of curiosity: "There are many kinds of national ceremony, and there can be several kinds of county ceremony."
"Our tourism bureau has discussed many times within the tourism bureau, and the consensus reached is to choose only one gift that best represents the characteristics of our county. You can only have one business card. If you have more, it will be bad. For example, if someone hands you a business card with a lot of titles,
Business card, how do you feel?" Director Zhang took out a card with seven or eight titles from the business card box and said to him: "The first impression is that he is a liar who is not doing his job properly."
"I have an idea. I can make some teacups or pen holders inlaid with colored stones. The inner pots are made of silver. In this way, I can save all my dignity." An idea flashed in Deputy Director Jin's head and he said: "Silver can be tried.
Poison and sterilization, the price is also good, and it complements the colored stones."
When Director Zhang heard this, he slapped his thigh and said, "This is a good idea. I would also like to ask Director Jin to design a few more samples. We will invite you to the bureau at a time to discuss it carefully."
