What is craftsman spirit?

Question 1: What is the essence of craftsman spirit? The country with the most craftsmen in the world is Italy.

If you carefully observe Italian industrial enterprises, you will find that "luxury yachts", "super sports cars", "luxury goods", "CNC machine tools", "high-end kitchenware" and other industries are very developed. These industries have a unique characteristic, that is, they are all manufactured in small batches, or even individually customized. They are also mainly handicrafts and place great emphasis on "purely handmade", which requires very, very high skills of workers. Strive for excellence on a single product, even at the expense of a lot of time and high costs. And the sales targets are mainly high-end business people and wealthy people. The products produced have condensed a lot of hard work of workers, and are actually very close to works of art. Workers are between ordinary workers and artists, and are called craftsmen. These craftsmen are very identified with their work, and even a family has been craftsmen for several generations, and they also enjoy high social status and economic income. Due to the above reasons, craftsmen attach great importance to the inheritance of skills and the elaboration of product details, creating Italy's unique status as an industrial power.

Let’s look at China again. Luo Yonghao launched a Smartisan mobile phone, which is claimed to be built with “craftsman spirit”. Ha ha ha ha! What a big joke, deceiving yourself and others! As we all know, mobile phones are typical mass-produced industrial products, so they must comply with the "industrial spirit" before they can be produced. Take the Smartisan mobile phone as an example. Its design is "no problem." The reason why "no problem" is in quotation marks is because there is no problem in making it as a work of art, but once it is handed over to an OEM company like Foxconn for production, There will be a problem. Its design does not compromise with production and manufacturing, and does not conform to the "industrial spirit" of mass manufacturing. Many products on the market look very ugly and have poor usability. Can’t the designers of the manufacturers see that? Now that you see it, why do you still produce it and sell it? Because they know that with such a design, the production cost is very low, the manufacturing process is simple, quality assurance is easy, the raw materials are also very common, and consumers will not be too resistant. This is the compromise between design and production, and finally the common " Ugly" product.

If you ask what the essence of craftsmanship is, the answer is small batch production or even individual customization! Any product produced in large quantities must not be in line with the "craftsman spirit".

Question 2: What is the spirit of craftsman and how to cultivate the spirit of craftsman? The question is that what I understand as the spirit of craftsman is to repeat a simple process thousands of times with awe and produce purity. Go to the Palace Museum to see what Yuan blue and white flowers look like. What kind of things were made by the palace manufacturing office under Tang Ying's supervision? It takes one year to make a rom based on someone else's CM, but what subversion is there? Please don't insult the craftsmen. They may not be creative. But they know what the Patriarch is. They know what their duty is.

Question 3: What kind of craftsman spirit does China have? Ancient Chinese craftsmen devoted their whole life to the spirit of meticulous craftsmanship and excellence, whether it was as big as a project or as small as the invention of a tool. The pursuit of skills is accompanied by a spirit of dedication and a feeling of helping the world. They love what they do more than the money it brings. The reverence for nature, the piety for the works, the empathy for the users, and their own insights were poured into a pair of skillful hands to create an ancient scientific and technological civilization that makes the mountains of the West admire. The superb casting technology and good musical performance of Zeng Houyi's chime bells have rewritten the history of world music; the Ru porcelain fired during the Huizong period of the Northern Song Dynasty has a glaze like "the sky is broken after the rain, and the green waves of the thousands of peaks are green", which is known as "Even if you have a huge fortune, it is not as good as a piece of your porcelain."

The noble "craftsman spirit" is indispensable in any era. If the craftsman spirit is ignored, the continuous development of society and the continued advancement of human civilization to glory will be frustrated. In today's society, only by giving full play to the spirit of craftsman can we have a competitive advantage, be truly irreplaceable, and be able to remain invincible in a complex environment forever.

Inheriting and carrying forward the craftsman spirit is not only a need for survival and development, but also the cornerstone of a wonderful life and a brilliant life. We need to regain the dedication, diligence, perseverance, and innovative spirit of craftsmen to form a unique and creative culture and values.

Dedication creates wealth

Looking back at Chinese history, during the Spring and Autumn Period, Lu Ban invented woodworking tools, agricultural equipment, etc., and was regarded as the model and ancestor of craftsmen; Zhang Heng of the Eastern Han Dynasty invented the seismograph, and Shen Kuo of the Northern Song Dynasty He wrote "Mengxi Bi Tan", Song Yingxing of the Ming Dynasty wrote "Tiangong Kaiwu"..., "Zengguang Xianwen" said: "A hundred hectares of fertile land is not as good as a small body of art." In the eyes of the lower class people in traditional Chinese society , no matter how much wealth you have, you will lose it sometimes. Only a craft can ensure that you have enough food and clothing. It is out of this simple understanding that people are willing to learn crafts and practice their crafts better and better in order to secure their jobs. Invisibly, the unique professionalism of Chinese craftsmen has been formed.

The design and manufacturing of ancient Chinese furniture were mainly completed by manual labor. The design and production were often done by the same person. In learning skills, they also completely adopted the method of master leading apprentice, relying on experience and memory, stretching rope ink, Bamboo is drawn with a pen, planed with a plane, and then measured with a measuring tool to produce a variety of classic furniture and handicrafts.

In the Ming Dynasty of our country, carpenters had perfected the bed for daily life. A good bed for a family is a fortune. Chapter 9 of "Jin Ping Mei" tells that Ximen Qing used sixteen taels of silver to buy a black lacquer and gold-painted bed for Li Ping'er, and he also used eleven taels of silver to buy two maids. When Pan Jinlian knew that Ximen Qing had bought a good bed for Li Ping'er's house, she started to make a fuss. As a last resort, Ximen Qing immediately spent sixty taels of silver to buy a mother-of-pearl bed in the living room. Just imagine how many maids a bed is worth.

The perseverance of craftsmen is also reflected in the invention and creation of agricultural tools. According to Zhou Xin's "History of the Development of Chinese Agricultural Tools": After long-term repeated practice, ancient craftsmen invented an efficient and practical columbine. It is a sowing tool pulled by animal power. It can complete trenching, planting, covering soil and other operations at one time, achieving consistent row spacing, consistent depth, and uniform density, which not only improves sowing quality but also improves work efficiency. It has achieved the effect of "three plows and one oxen, one person will take care of it, sow the seeds, pull up the coves, and sow one hectare a day"; Huang Daopo, a cotton textile expert of the Yuan Dynasty, carried out continuous reforms in my country's cotton textile technology. Create a set of tools for catching, spinning, spinning and weaving: a seed-removal wheel, a cotton spring bow, a three-spindle pedal spinning wheel... The spinning efficiency was suddenly increased by two or three times. Her professionalism promoted the rapid development of my country's cotton textile industry, making my country's ancient cotton textile technology always in a leading position in the world.

Diligence promotes development

The diligent spirit of ancient craftsmen is reflected in all aspects. It has led to the invention of drainage and irrigation equipment for my country's agricultural production to be at the forefront of the world. Traditional waterwheels, commonly known as "turnovers" and "tube trucks", are large-scale agricultural machinery that can continuously draw water from the surface of rivers, lakes, rivers and ponds. It can not only be used to lift water in highlands and lowland fields. It also plays a great role in non-agricultural fields such as water drainage and water transportation, and coastal salt production. Its advanced technology can be directly transformed into productivity. From the perspective of mechanical principles, the waterwheel has a complex structure, including a connecting rod crank mechanism, an axle gear mechanism, a sprocket adjustment mechanism, etc. From a dynamic point of view, it gradually rises from human and animal power to the application of natural energy such as water power and wind power. According to Fang Lisong's "Research on Traditional Chinese Waterwheels": "It represents ancient China's outstanding achievements in the utilization of kinetic energy. It and other agricultural tools such as farming...gt;gt;

Question Four: What is "craftsman spirit"? I believe that craftsman spirit is a spiritual culture accumulated by mankind for millions of years and reached its peak in the handicraft era. According to Xiao Wenjiang's definition of craftsmanship, craftsman spirit should include two parts: pursuit. Ultimate spirit and unique creativity. So the essence of the so-called craftsman spirit is creativity and perseverance.

Question 5: What is the connotation of craftsman spirit?

1. Strive for excellence.

Pay attention to details, pursue perfection and extreme, spend time and energy tirelessly, repeatedly improve products, and increase 99 to 99.99.

2. Rigorous and meticulous. We do not take shortcuts, we must ensure the quality of each component, adopt strict testing standards for products, and we will never deliver products easily if they do not meet the requirements.

3. Patience, focus, and persistence. Continuously improve products and services, because real craftsmen will never stop pursuing progress in the professional field, whether it is the materials used, design or production processes, they are constantly improving.

4. Professional and dedicated. The goal of the craftsman spirit is to create the highest quality products in the industry, outstanding products that cannot be matched by other peers.

Question 6: What is craftsman spirit? Craftsman spirit refers to the spiritual concept of craftsmen carefully crafting their own products, striving for excellence and perfection. Craftsmen like to constantly carve their products, constantly improve their craftsmanship, and enjoy the process of sublimating the products in their hands. The goal of the craftsman spirit is to create the highest quality products in the industry, outstanding products that cannot be matched by other peers. To sum up, the spirit of craftsmanship is the creative spirit that pursues excellence, the quality spirit that strives for excellence, and the service spirit that puts customers first.

When

today’s society is full of impatience and pursues

the immediate benefits brought by “short, flat, and fast” (low investment, short cycle, quick results) interests, thereby ignoring the quality soul of the product. Therefore, enterprises need more craftsmanship to succeed in long-term competition. While other companies

are keen on the cycle of "making money, killing a certain product, releasing new products, and making money again", companies that adhere to the "craftsman spirit" rely on faith and belief to look at the product. Continuous improvement, continuous improvement, and finally, after passing the high standard requirements

After experience, it has become the pride of many users. Regardless of success or failure, their spirit is complete enjoyment of this process, which is refined and refined. It’s also positive.

Question 7: What is ingenuity and craftsman spirit? Craftsmanship is warm, and so is the lifestyle!

The Shuying series created by Mr. Du Ruihua. Bathroom furniture:

Who it is created for is one of the most worth thinking questions. From the changes of the times, we can find the most common point of eternal life and the most common language with modern life.

As Frank’s founder and chairman Ding Wei said: “We focus on point-to-point communication rather than industry vision. In Frank’s view, the core of ingenuity is people, and it is related to consumers. The emotional connection between consumers is about all the details of lifestyle. As a brand that retains traditional woodworking craftsmanship and has a craftsman spirit, every product is a commitment, but we believe that making it with care is more important. We must listen carefully, pay attention to subtle changes in lifestyle, pay attention to the subtle relationship between bathroom space and people, and pay attention to the resonance of emotions and values. Therefore, through continuous exploration and experience, we refine the inherited essence of life and explore the ancient charm. , find the unique language of life."

Question 8: What are the characteristics of the traditional Chinese craftsman spirit? Ancient Chinese craftsmen devoted themselves to the spirit of meticulous craftsmanship and excellence. Life-long efforts, ranging from a large project to the invention of a tool, are not only the pursuit of skills, but also the spirit of dedication and the feeling of helping the world. They love what they do more than the money it brings. The reverence for nature, the piety for the works, the empathy for the users, and their own insights were poured into a pair of skillful hands to create an ancient scientific and technological civilization that makes the mountains of the West admire.

Question 9: What is the essence of craftsman spirit? 1. The essence is to work hard, work hard, manage life hard, and interpret life with heart.

2. Craftsman generally refers to a skilled craftsman, and also refers to a person with considerable writing skills. High-level people. These people often pursue higher technology or artistic realm, so it generally means that a person can achieve a high level of a certain skill or art. The spirit of craftsmanship is to focus on and make an item in a down-to-earth manner. , even just a screw can achieve success.

3. The first element of craftsmanship is fun and enthusiasm. From the age of nine until today, Zhilu has never had a day off except for illness. "I like the repetition of daily life," he said. I don't like days off. I'm happiest when I'm working! "I think the reason why he accomplished such great achievements is precisely because he loves his work. In "The Analects", there is a saying: "Those who know are not as good as those who are good at it, and those who are good at it are not as good as those who are happy." "This sentence clearly summarizes the first element of the craftsman spirit.

The second element of the craftsman spirit is perseverance. Confucius said: "Learning is like failing to learn. "There is no end to the pursuit of knowledge. This is not limited to a specific scope, but applies to all aspects of our lives. In our lives, as long as we observe carefully, it is not difficult to find those who are constantly researching and exploring and creating unique paths in a certain field. people. Mr. Confucius is a representative figure.

As he himself said, "Learning is like failing to catch up". When many disciples asked him for knowledge, he was never proud and complacent throughout his life, but continued to learn, accumulate and sum up experience.

The third element of craftsmanship is strength and patience. We generally call those who transcend the general realm through continuous efforts "craftsmen." But there is a lack of people around us who can truly be called "craftsmen" because becoming a craftsman requires thousands of years of time and all kinds of pain and setbacks. Only when you face difficulties bravely and get out of them with strength can you reach the realm of a craftsman.

Question 10: What does the spirit of craftsmanship in a great country mean? Let’s first look at a set of data: As of 2013, Japan has 3,146 companies with a life span of more than 200 years, the most in the world, Germany has 837, and the Netherlands has 837. There are 222, including 196 in France. But as the world's second largest manufacturing country in terms of GDP, China does not have many century-old companies. One of the important reasons is that the spirit of craftsmanship has not been effectively passed on.

China, aware of this, is now regaining the spirit of craftsmanship.

At the "Two Sessions" on March 5, 2016, Premier *** mentioned in the *** work report, "Encourage enterprises to carry out personalized customization and flexible production, and cultivate craftsmen who strive for excellence. Spirit, increase variety, improve quality, and create brand.” "Craftsman spirit" appeared in the *** work report for the first time, indicating that "craftsman spirit" has been highly valued by the party and the country.

So, what is craftsmanship?

A craftsman is a craftsman with expertise in craftsmanship. The spirit of craftsman means that craftsmen must not only have superb skills and exquisite skills, but also have a rigorous, meticulous, focused, and responsible work attitude and a work philosophy of meticulous craftsmanship and excellence, as well as a sense of identity, responsibility, and professionalism. A sense of honor and mission.

In fact, craftsman spirit has different terms in each country. Germans call it "labor spirit", Americans call it "professional spirit", Japanese call it "craftsman spirit", and Koreans call it "master spirit". Spirit".

Through comparative research on countries such as Germany and Japan where the craftsman spirit is prevalent, as well as the collection and compilation of the ancient and modern craftsman spirit in our country, the craftsman spirit of great countries is mainly manifested in the following five aspects: persistence and focus, rigorous style, excellence, Dedicated, trustworthy, and innovative.

Persistence and concentration

We found that both Germany and Japan regard persistence and concentration as an important part of the craftsman spirit. Their famous craftsmen often focus on one thing and stick to it, persevering and persevering.

On the stage of world manufacturing, "Made in Germany" has always occupied a high position. Currently, among the 31 sectors of the global machinery manufacturing industry, 17 of them are in the leading position in Germany, and 27 of them are in the top three. German cars, clocks, knives, brewing equipment, underground drainage systems, buildings and furniture are all world-renowned for their durability, reliability, safety and precision. This also constitutes the core culture of "Made in Germany".

"Focus" is one of the core contents of German craftsmanship. There are many century-old companies among them. In order to become the strongest in the country or even the world, they can focus on a certain product field for decades or hundreds of years in order to achieve great things. Their "big business" does not refer to quantity, assets, products, or profits, but to being the best in the world in terms of quality and being respected by the industry; they are "small things make big things happen, small businesses are big businesses" and they don't seek big scale, but strength. powerful. Among these globally renowned companies, some are still small and medium-sized enterprises today, such as Koenigamp; Bauer's printing and dyeing compressors, RUD's industrial chains, and Karcher's high-pressure professional vacuum cleaners. In their view, what they pursue is not large numbers, but strong strength.

Long-term vision is a distinctive feature of German small and medium-sized enterprises. They don't care about temporary gains and losses, but care more about the unremitting pursuit for decades or even hundreds of years. Because of their focus, German companies or craftsmen often create a fine product throughout their lives and pass it down from generation to generation.

Once they enter, they will not give up easily even if the industry is temporarily depressed.

"Specialization in the art industry" makes them the "leader" in the industry. In addition to well-known brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Siemens, Germany also has thousands of small and medium-sized enterprises. Most of them are "specialized". Once they choose an industry or a segmented product, they will focus on it and continue to explore. , until becoming the “leader”.

The Bayer Group has also grown into a global enterprise because of its focus. Bayer was founded in 1863 and has been focusing on dyes and pharmaceuticals. It developed the "drug of the century" - aspirin and put it on the market in 1899. Now, with more than 150 years of history, Bayer is a global enterprise with core capabilities in the fields of medicine, health, and agricultural life sciences. To this day, aspirin is still a best-seller around the world.

Founded in 1875, Germany's Luther-Lieger & Titz Chain Co., Ltd. (Luther for short) has become the "leader" in the industry because of its focus on chain production. This is a typical model-focused family business. For more than 100 years,...gt;gt;
