And these things that are respected, diligent and carefully cared for are not so precious to others, because these collections are incomplete and most of them are broken porcelain pieces.

Born into a medical family.
But I'm crazy about picking up garbage.
"Some things can't be measured by economic value. These ceramic fragments are actually garbage from past generations. " For Jing Qinqin, this room full of ceramics is the treasure of his business for nearly 20 years.
Jing Qinqin was born in a medical family, and his family treasured the inscriptions handed down by his ancestors, such as "Outstanding Medical Forest" and "Good Doctors in the World". According to the expectations of his elders, he should pass on his medical skills, but when he was young, he was stubborn. He worked as a light bulb factory worker, sold books and fiddled with second-hand houses ... but he never had anything to do with medicine.
"When I was 40 years old, I was exposed to broken porcelain pieces, and then I have been until now." To diligence.
The experience of first contact with ceramic membrane is still fresh in my memory. "That summer, when it rained heavily, I saw someone turning over construction waste. When I asked, I knew that they were picking up porcelain pieces and said they were antiques. " Jing Qinqin said, so he also joined the ranks of picking up porcelain pieces. "The bricks and tiles at home are all bagged and thrown away."
In this way, he learned while picking up, was very diligent, and contacted many friends in the collection circle. He is more and more fascinated by ceramic membranes.

"People say I'm crazy.
But I know what I'm doing. "
Picking up ceramics has to follow construction waste. In the past 20 years, where there is demolition in the old city of Zhengzhou, there is respect for the elderly and diligence. "Cars carrying construction waste are usually pulled to the suburbs at night, so I will follow the driver's master to touch it." Jing Qinqin said that he arrived there early the next morning with his bag. A bicycle, a shovel and a bag are his standards.
Jing Qinqin told Henan Business Daily that on the day he picked up ceramic fragments, his clothes were often covered with mud, his face was unshaven, his hair was very long, and the longest time was at his shoulders. One is because there is no time to take care of it, and the other is for the convenience of picking up porcelain pieces. "The construction site is not easy to enter. If long hair looks like rags, no one will stop me. "
He was addicted to broken porcelain all day and once sold two houses to buy other people's porcelain. His wife, brother and mother once thought he was crazy. The eldest brother who respects diligence once said to his mother, "The third child may be really crazy." At that time, my mother cried: "Then he will go crazy. What can I do? "
"But I know what I'm doing. Call me a madman, because no one cares about a madman, so I can concentrate on picking up broken ceramics. " To diligence.

"These are all found in Zhengzhou. The number of porcelain pieces in each era can represent the social development at that time. " To diligence.
To collection room, who is diligent, there are several complete objects that he pieced together with fragments. One of the green glazed lotus leaf pillows in the Song Dynasty, he picked up some pieces from the beginning, then collected them, and finally pieced them together. It took him a year.
"Following the magic, I found it for a year and basically put it together." Jing Qin said excitedly.
This green glazed lotus leaf pillow is translucent and glowing green. Some collectors paid a high price and refused to sell. "It is fate that can be pieced together, and it can't be sold at all."

Witness the development history of Zhengzhou ancient ceramics
Because of the demolition, Jing Qinqin's Shangdu Soul Ancient Ceramics Museum, which has been in charge of Guancheng Hutong for nearly 20 years, was demolished. At the end of last year, Jing Qinqin found a new home for these babies, but Jing Qinqin felt that "the place is not as good as the hutong now, and there is no such atmosphere."
Also sorry for Qin, there is Sun Xinmin, former president of Henan Archaeological Research Institute. "It's not easy to establish this Shangdu Soul Ancient Ceramic Specimen Collection. It has been collected one by one for so many years. "
Sun Xinmin told Henan Business Daily that the current collection is a collection of finished products and a collection of specimens like respect and diligence. "His collection time span is amazing, which is of great significance for studying the exchange and development of ancient ceramics in Zhengzhou."
Sun Xinmin also invited members of the China Ancient Ceramics Research Association to visit the Shangdu Soul Ancient Ceramics Collection before the demolition.
"I am old and can't take these things with me. My greatest wish is to build a museum to show Zhengzhou ancient ceramic culture. " Jing Qinqin said that with more and more ceramic parts, it is more and more difficult for him to preserve and assemble ceramic parts. "This is the child I raised, and I can't support it now."
