Face changing

Although Beijing Antique City is well-known and receives hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world every year, because it has been in operation for more than ten years, the appearance of the building is old and out of date, and its function can not be in line with international standards, which forms a strong contrast with its elegant cultural atmosphere, and there are many security risks. Under the care of the municipal and district governments and relevant departments, Beijing Antique City was officially included in the renovation project of Beijing's characteristic commercial street in 2007, with special fund support from the municipal and district levels. It is estimated that a total investment of 26 million yuan will be invested in the internal and external upgrading. One of the key points of the renovation is to redesign the appearance of Beijing Antique City, using new technology, new technology and new materials, so that Beijing Antique City will become a Beijing Olympic cultural landscape. The scheme was designed by Shanghai Tongji University and selected by public vote at the first China Beijing Cultural and Creative Industry Expo hosted by the municipal government. The scheme combines Chinese classical elements with modern fashion decoration style, and the overall architectural style is like an open "treasure box", implying a collection of Chinese antique works. Among them, white jade, Chinese knot, Chinese seal, window pane, screen and other Chinese classical cultural elements are integrated. The decorative form of glass curtain wall is rich in oriental culture, and embodies modern architectural technology and solemn atmosphere. The whole building adopts LED night scene lighting, crystal clear. Night will become a regional highlight and landmark building, changing the situation of dark night in Panjiayuan area. At the same time, build a three-dimensional garage that can accommodate 120 parking spaces, and introduce intelligent parking guidance system to solve the shortage of parking spaces and alleviate the traffic congestion of surrounding roads. In the program, barrier free facilities and bilingual signs will be improved according to international standards. The above transformation was completed at the end of 2007.

Both inside and outside

After becoming bigger and stronger, Beijing Antique City is constantly thinking about its cultural orientation. More than 600 high-quality cultural relics companies and antique dealers, and hundreds of thousands of Chinese antique artworks, have inspired the idea of building China's first touchable Art Museum, so that everyone can learn, understand, love and protect antiques. Art museums and museums have seen a lot, but most of them give people the feeling that they can only see from a distance through the glass. In fact, what antique lovers, collectors and connoisseurs really need is to get started and feel the real texture of history.

In order to achieve this goal before 2008, we have been making continuous efforts. On the one hand, we are constantly carrying out internal transformation and upgrading the internal business environment of the market in a planned way. In particular, we strongly encourage merchants to carry out decoration transformation, introduce the decoration concept of International Art Museum, and strive for perfection in the use of materials, layout, furnishings, lighting and color, so as to form commonness and individuality, so as to make every art museum have its own characteristics Every shop has become a small theme art museum. On the other hand, it is necessary to strengthen the training and improvement of the quality of merchants and employees. We have strict eight standards for every business in Beijing Antique City to ensure that every business is an elite in the antique industry. At the same time, we should constantly strengthen education and training to maintain the overall high-quality level. For example, in 2007, we carried out a series of training in Olympic English, Olympic knowledge and Olympic etiquette among all businesses, compiled and distributed special teaching materials with the characteristics of Beijing Antique City, and hired experts and volunteers to teach, so that the training rate reached 100%. At the same time, we have unified the clothing and breastplate in the market, so that each practitioner can become the image representative of the antique city, a professional commentator, a disseminator of Chinese traditional culture, and a volunteer of Cultural Olympics.
