Three outstanding men, all proud disciples of Gu Jingzhou!

  ??

  Mr. Gu Jingzhou is recognized as a master of modern purple sand and a master of a generation. Gu Lao has many disciples in his life, three of whom are not only Gu Lao's proud disciples, but also a family of three.

  This family is China arts and crafts master Zhou Guizhen, her husband Gao Haigeng and her son Gao Zhenyu.

  Gao haigeng

  Gao Haigeng (Zhou Guizhen's husband and Gao Zhenyu's father), Gu Lao's favorite apprentice, believes that it is Gao Haigeng who can understand the concept of "Gu Pai" and integrate into his own creation.

  Gu Jingzhou once said to Feng Qiyong, "My successor is Hai Geng. My skills have all been taught to him, and the person who can surpass me in the future is Hai Geng. "

  In 1978, Gao Haigeng drew inspiration from China's traditional jade wares: Jibi, Huan, Huang, Jue and Jue, and designed a jade pot, which was chosen as a gift for state leaders to visit foreign countries.

  In 1982, Gao Haigeng was the director of Zisha Craft Factory, and Gu Lao was very pleased with this. Whether it was Gao Haigeng's pot or his personal ability, he was favored.

  Even when he became a factory director, he worked very hard and tried his best to study and make pots. He took the lead in launching "famous masterpieces" in the national ceramic industry, making craftsmen become the envy of the society at that time.

  However, when Gao Haigeng was the director of Zisha, he worked day and night. Due to continuous fatigue, he suddenly suffered from viral myocarditis and suddenly left.

  Gu Lao fought back his grief and wrote a tombstone inscription for Gao Haigeng, which was engraved by Xu Xiutang:

  I have devoted myself to purple sand for thirty years.

  Make concerted efforts to revitalize pottery and jade.

  Brilliant and brilliant, endless sorrow in the kiln

  Zhou Guizhen

  Zhou Guizhen (Gao Haigeng's wife, Gao Zhenyu's mother), a master of arts and crafts in China, entered the training class of artists in Zisha Craft Factory in 1958 and studied under Gu Jingzhou and Wang Yinchun.

  In the 1960 s, she stood out among her peers and won the process quality appraisal in the industry repeatedly.

  Her purple sand works are atmospheric, open-minded and free and easy, which also contains the beauty and beauty of women. "Exquisite workmanship and rhyme, and purple jade is full of light" is the most prominent place in her purple sand works.

  Zhou Guizhen and Gao Haigeng were also teachers, friends and husband and wife, and jointly created Jade Pot, Flat Bamboo and Beam Pot, Ding Wen Three-legged Pot, and Ring Dragon Three-legged Pot.

  The jade pot designed by Gao Haigeng mentioned above was made by her. In 978, the jade pot was selected as a national gift for Deng Xiaoping's first visit to Japan.

  In addition, Mansheng Tiaoliang pot made by her was selected by Ziguangge in Zhongnanhai as a display handicraft.

  China National Museum, China Arts and Crafts Museum, Nanjing Museum, Hong Kong Tea Ware Heritage Museum and Taiwan History Museum have all collected her purple sand works.

  Gao Zhenyu

  Gao Zhenyu (son of Gao Haigeng and Zhou Guizhen) is a close disciple of Gu Jingzhou. In Gao Zhenyu's memory, the word he heard most in his childhood was "Zisha".

  He was born in a ceramic family in Yixing City. At the age of 18, he studied the traditional skills of teapot from Gu Jingzhou.

  After graduating from the Arts and Crafts Department of Nanjing University of the Arts in 1989, Gao Zhenyu went to Japan to study ceramics in the Department of Industrial Design of the famous Musashino University of Fine Arts in Tokyo. He studied under the Japanese ceramics master Kato Meida, and also had in-depth study and research on modern ceramics.

  After returning to China in 1993, he entered the China Academy of Art to establish a ceramic art research room.

  His works do not have a gorgeous and extravagant appearance, but pay attention to the mud itself, drawing inspiration from the current design and combining it with traditional purple sand.

  In the ranks of young and middle-aged famous artists in today's purple sand ceramic industry, Gao Zhenyu is outstanding.

  Attachment: Zhou Guizhen missed her husband Gao Haigeng in the interview.

  The language is plain but touching.

  At that time, more than 20 years ago, the telephone was not as convenient as it is now. A school next to our home had a telephone, and no one was on duty at night, so you couldn't use it if it had a telephone.

  To go to the hospital to see a doctor, you can't sit on a bicycle. There is only an ordinary scooter, just like the one in the movie. He is lying on it, and the factory is so far away. The doctors in Dingshan don't know what caused the disease.

  When it reaches a certain severity and is sent to a big hospital outside, it is already too late, and the virus has gone to the heart. When I caught a cold before this, if I had been treated earlier, I might have been fine.

  Because it happened to be the time to cook every year, and it will be December soon. He has to be busy summing up at the end of the year and want to get the work ready for next year.

  It was so cold that he refused to rest. When he really fell down and couldn't move, he was ill.

  At this time, I missed this person, and the loss of "Zisha" was quite large. His death was sudden, he was young and promising, and his personality and popularity were good.

  Suddenly he died. After he died, some people rode bicycles for dozens of miles, and some cars came down from those places in Nanjing. The road from Yixing to Dingshan was crowded with people, and people asked who the great man had passed away.

  By the time he was buried in the mountain, all the people stood on both sides from the factory gate to his grave on Shushan Mountain. The primary school students moved bricks, two pieces at a time, and two pieces at a time.

  In addition to him, this kind of scene was only seen by Gu Lao later. I think he is too young and left too early. Another thing is that he really has his value ...

  He suddenly left, our family ... I was very hard, to do a good job in the factory, unwilling to lag behind; We must also handle the family affairs very neatly.

  When his bicycle stopped at the door of his house, at that time, I burned briquettes, and my food was basically ready. The children came back from school to eat, so I was happy to be busy!

  I come back to do laundry at night, and there are people at home to talk to him about work. It seems that I am full of energy all day.

  Our husband and wife are also happy that our two children are going to college. But as soon as he left, the family was in a terrible mess. Four people became me at home alone, and two children went to college.

  Then the pain in my heart: so many lively and perfect families suddenly become cold and cold. How do I eat my rice? Where is my happiness?

  Fortunately, I finally survived, because my teacher supported me, and Gu Lao said, Don't worry, as long as I am here, I will take care of you.

  I get the concern of teachers, students, workers and government personnel in the company and factory, and I am very grateful to them.

  For me, there was a business problem at that time. Originally, Hai Geng and I were partners in the purple sand business. His design ability was stronger than mine, and he left me so early.

  Now, it's impossible for me to innovate all of a sudden. I seem to have someone to walk with me all the time. Now I want to be independent. This is the process I mentioned earlier, and it's not easy to take this step.

  Someone is designing, and if there is anything wrong with your work, he will suggest what you should do, which place is more, which place is less, which one is higher and shorter, and how to do it.

  It's easy for two people to cooperate, and now I'm alone. It should be said that I was immature to go by myself at that time, so I can only ask Gu Lao.

  I'm in a bad mood, and the children are not around, and I still rely on my income for their college education.

  The chairman of the trade union gave me a monthly allowance in 20 yuan. I cried when I saw the money, so I was sad. How could I get that allowance?

  I'm determined not to. Don't! This is my character. I don't take it, I'm on my own.

  I have worked for so long, and I only have 11 days of sick leave in my life, which is not my personal leave.

  It was my son who got appendicitis when he was 11 years old. His father happened to be in Guangzhou, and his daughter went to primary school and came back to eat. Then I couldn't help it. At that time, I asked for 11 days of sick leave.

  In addition, during the period when Hai Geng left, I lay in bed for a month, but I did all the tasks and gave the works to the factory. I didn't lie in vain.
