Switzerland and more craftsmen to manufacture watches Seiko secret agents known to the world, their leading Swiss watch hundreds of years, long but not bad.
Drastic changes! With the rapid development of electronic technology, the Swiss mechanical watch quartz watch face opponents. Special way to cut quartz crystal, the vibration frequency is very stable, accurate quartz watches over the most accurate mechanical watch.
Making matters worse! With the further development of electronic technology, by means of digital technology, even more powerful rival Swiss mechanical watches, electronic watches not only more accurate timing, and has multiple functions. Fashion-loving young people in droves. Ten years ago, a young American who seems to be carrying a white table, mostly black plastic strap and LCD surface electronic form. Continued survival of the traditional Swiss watch must face the unprecedented crisis. Swiss craftsmen have courage and overcome difficulties, in the time machine, display and other aspects of table design excellence, has introduced new models for the Swiss watch into the new life.
“The mountains darkly, vista.” Today, Swiss watches not only weather the storm, to regain the lost market; and heights, the traditional mechanical watch never before seen the emergence of fashion trends. Many brand-name manufacturers have introduced “open type” phenotype, some or all of the surface will be open, exposing the core of the spring table, wheel, jewel bearings and gears, so that the mechanical watch’s “guts” of a glance. Proud of this issue of silent confession: “We are proud to mechanical watches!” Prices have been rising, hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars each. High-end Swiss mechanical watches with a strong market advantage.
Swiss watch unexpectedly strong recovery, cause I thought.
The sake of discussion, the Swiss watch of a comeback is not based on their timing features, but as a characterization of identity and personal style: what kind of person to wear what kind of table. In fact, high-end watches are sold in the jewelers. High-end watches made of gold and diamonds, platinum, and its compact structure is better than jewelry, people put it down. “Open style” mechanical advantage lies in its texture and dynamic, hairspring, balance wheel, sport gear are in harmony, vivid, delightful poetry, this is an electronic form can not be compared. Swiss craftsmen who exceed and will give full play to its strengths come from behind and win the game.
Swiss watch of the recovery as well as its deeper meaning.
Traditional print media industry is facing similar when the challenges facing the Swiss watch. Networks and other electronic media of the rise of the tremendous impact of the print media, fashion-loving young people flocking to the formation of a trend. America’s small bookstores have closed, depleted; remaining two large national chain bookstore, a bankrupt, another in jeopardy. Some newspapers and periodicals of the day more and more difficult. Traditional practitioners are facing an unprecedented crisis of survival must continue.
Can turn into a crisis, the key is to know ourselves well and respond. The advantages of electronic media “big”, the information capacity is very large, and a few hard drive can record all of the library collection. Another advantage is the “fast”, information transmission speed of 300,000 kilometers per second, a flash can reach far and wide. These aspects are of traditional print media can not compete with the. It does not mean helpless, traditional practitioners can learn from the experience of the Swiss statement exceed comeback.
Electronic media is a huge amount of information advantage, network extending throughout the world, people can access at any time to express their views, a wide variety of ever-changing, bringing about. But the big difficulties: modern does not suffer from less information and suffer from it too, submerged in the sea of information ho if the torrent of smoke, adrift I do not know to whom they follow. This provides an opportunity for the traditional media than the “big” than “fast” No, why not with them than the “spirit” than “long”?
“Fine” is to stress the quality, content and form in the print media efforts. Some U.S. book publishers began to focus on the quality and appearance, have adopted Hard hardcover, elegant coat, color illustrations … a practitioner said: “The convenience … We were toward the book value and treasure for those who want to have . ” Initial success! A book entitled “1Q48″ book has sold 95,000 hardcover edition, more than three times more than the electronic version. America’s most famous “New York Times” to a recent revision, the original of the “Weekly News Summary” to “Sunday Review”, published artists and cutting-edge article points clear and hits the mark, popular with readers. Britain’s most famous, “The Economist” magazine for revision in content and form of excellence, circulation of over one million copies. Proved: there is nothing, the traditional media to Japan, longer, promising.
Saying: “article eternal things, gains and losses Cunxin know.” Culture of the charm lies in lasting and fresh, fine to be durable, abuse is premature dying. Three Hundred Tang Poems bad for thousands of years, children still sing, that is, a positive significant cases. Counter-example see the Emperor Qianlong, the prolific poet poetry Yu Wan, everywhere Yubi pro title, and now who remember one? This traditional media has its advantages: if they can do “spirit,” we can achieve “a long time.” Serve two purposes, why not?
Writers and scholars wrote books, hoping handed down; love reading who would like to have a book, roll in hand, tangible turn was opening and closing Long, is to produce a real texture. Electronic media can do, “the possession of the pass after the world famous”, but the lack of such a texture. Like “open style” mechanical watch to give texture and movement of people, while the electronic form can not. Or we can say: “This is an old almanac, the pursuit of fashionable young people not think so.” Wait a minute! Like a Swiss watch as other years and then a conclusion right?
Please do not misunderstand, I do not mean to belittle electronic products. I just want to note: Swiss watch and electronic form, traditional and electronic media, each with its long proper place, learn from each other mutual economic benefit.
In short, people’s material and spiritual needs of a wide range. Ye Hao watches, books, newspapers and Ye Hao, if we grasp this opportunity to meet people’s needs, the times can be long lasting.
