"We hope to develop items with the mixture of style and conventional culture," Liu stated.
yet another intangible cultural heritage item, the oilpaper umbrella changed into on screen.
Bi Liufu, an inheritor of the craft, talked about that in Luzhou, Sichuan province, he used to be the handiest adult who mastered the craft. however now there are 20 people in the enterprise.
"The oilpaper umbrella now not only has ornamental price, however also has high utility, therefore attracting extra americans to the exchange," Bi stated.

but now not all craftsmen are optimistic about inheriting and setting up an intangible cultural heritage.
Dang Aihong, ordinary supervisor of a shadow puppetry way of life company in Shaanxi province, changed into pessimistic in regards to the cultural inheritance. Dang has adopted his father-in-law to gain knowledge of the approach for years.
"in the past decade, there were more than 1,000 retail outlets engaged in making shadow puppetry in Shaanxi province. however nowadays the number has declined to about 30," Dang talked about.
even though commonplace americans are commonplace with a shadow display, few of them are enthusiastic about it, he mentioned. He introduced that the market demand tends to dry up sometimes.
Dang spoke of his business earns about 1 million yuan per 12 months. "The earnings is complicated to satisfy the excessive cost of appoint and staff pay."
There are 24 steps to make a shadow puppet, including leather making, design drafts, carving and portray.
Dang observed he has taught college students during the last few years but few of them persist with it. "as a result of the low income, they turned from puppetry to other jobs."
Deng Juhua, 68, an heir of embroidery, expressed the equal considerations.
The embroidery ability is complex and few individuals wish to learn it, Deng stated.
It generally takes about eight months to finished a work by means of hand. whereas the usage of a machine, the time is reduced to a couple of seconds, she said.
"despite the difference in pleasant of embroideries made by way of machines and hand, those churned out by machines occupy the most important market share on account of their low costs," she referred to.
so far, the State Council has posted 4 companies of 1,372 representative items of intangible cultural heritage. The country wide cultural watchdog has appointed greater than three,000 inheritors.
"Innovation is an impetus to preserve the normal way of life alive," referred to Li Rongqi, a research fellow at the chinese national Academy of Arts. She brought that it comprises innovation in intangible cultural heritage itself and inventive items.
"however the innovation of intangible cultural heritage should still maintain the cultural essence as opposed to overdevelopment for chasing earnings," Li referred to.
