Not long ago, Weibo, a vice president of China University of Political Science and Law, revealed that there was a Taishan stone statue in front of the teaching building, which triggered public discussion on the popular landscape setting of Taishan stone statue in the institution. Weibo, an official of the Graduate School of China University of Political Science and Law, responded that this Taishan stone placed in Xueyuan Road Campus was not purchased by the school public funds, but was a landscape stone presented by alumni to congratulate the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the Graduate School, and there was no feng shui consideration. According to media reports, donating Taishan Stone is becoming a way for many college alumni to repay their alma mater. 2011/0 In June, Shandong University of Technology alumni and Weifang College Jinan Alumni Association donated Taishan Stone to their alma mater. Alumni of Grade 78 and Grade 88 of Henan University of Technology also donated Taishan Stone to their alma mater. Last month, in order to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the founding of our alma mater, the alumni of 79-grade iron and steel metallurgy department of Northeastern University also donated a Taishan stone weighing about 6 tons.
Beijing Youth Daily reporter inquired about the information on the website of Landscape Stone, which is known as "the most professional Taishan stone service provider in China". Listed companies that have completed the transaction of Jutaishan Stone include: China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation, Beijing Forestry University, University of Science and Technology Beijing, Shandong Agricultural University, School of Mechanical and Power Engineering of Shanghai Jiaotong University, Bowen College of Lanzhou Jiaotong University, Hebei University, Linyi Planning Bureau, Tianjin Youyi Road Bank of Communications Branch, Taicang Tobacco Monopoly Bureau and Taicang State Taxation Bureau.
The development boom of Taishan stone began in 2000. With some public units taking Taishan Stone, Shishi and Feng Shui Ball as the "standard" for building buildings and halls, the price of Taishan Stone has gone up and up again. Huang Qian Town, 30 kilometers away from Tai 'an City, Shandong Province, was lifted out of poverty in one fell swoop because of the production of Taishan stone, and the house price soared to 8,000 yuan per square meter.
There is a well-known folk story circulating on Mount Tai: There is a warrior at the foot of Mount Tai, surnamed Shi Ming, who is skilled in martial arts and dares to exorcise demons for the people. Over time, the mountain people carved his name on the stone and stood it in the house as the treasure of the town house, in order to ward off evil spirits and drive away ghosts, and to get in and out safely. In addition, Taishan stone has coarse crystal grains, clear texture, prominent picture, strong contrast tone, simple and rich tone, and is gradually endowed with divine power, becoming a "sacred stone" and a "geomantic stone", which is famous all over the world for its meaning of avoiding evil spirits and town house.
Taishan stone has become a special business. Since about 2000, local villagers in Tai 'an have collected some small stones with unique shapes from the river or at the foot of the mountain and sold them to tourists as souvenirs. And some government departments, military institutions and well-known state-owned enterprises that have the power and money in their hands have also begun to become the chasing groups of Taishan Stone. They don't hesitate to spend a lot of money, mostly because they take a fancy to the metaphor behind the "Feng Shui Stone" of "the head of the Five Mountains" which is related to their career prospects.
A stone shaped like Mount Tai is called "as steady as Mount Tai". Put it behind the building, meaning "there is a backing" and the seat is stable; There is a tall and straight stone in the courtyard, which is called "the exclusive respect of the five mountains", meaning a unique and noble identity; There are Longteng, Shun Baishun, The Apprentice, How Beautiful the Jiangshan is, and so on ... The vice president of China University of Political Science and Law, who basks in stones, also said that Taishan stone means "peaceful and peaceful".
In short, according to the shape, texture and texture, each stone has a different name, placement and meaning. Accordingly, stone merchants will consciously keep the special prototype of the stone and package their own stones with new gimmicks when excavating.
With the introduction of a series of new policies to promote honesty, such as the central government's efforts to reduce public consumption and curb buildings and halls, the once-hot "Taishan Stone" public money market has plummeted, and some stone bosses have stopped opening this year.
