Master Yun's Speech at the “Elegant Strokes, Exquisite Art” International Women Artists Exhibition


梁会长好,各位老师好,谢谢你们的分享。各位朋友们好。

President Liang, teachers, thank you for your beautiful sharing. Hello, my friends.

 

我外婆的二伯是清朝的秀才。年纪很轻便中了乡试科举。杨沚芗先生被当时的中国政府派来南洋。太伯公便携带家眷南来。外婆在南洋出生。这样算来我是来自中国的第四代移民。我的外公年轻的时候来到南洋。这样算来,我是来自中国的第三代移民。

我十三岁从马来西亚到新加坡念书,直到三年前(2020年)当了新加坡公民。这样算,我又是到新加坡的第一代移民。

My grandmother's second uncle was a scholar in the Qing Dynasty. He passed the provincial examination at a very young age. Mr Yang Zhixiang was a trainee consul sent to Nanyang by the Chinese government. My granduncle brought his family to Nanyang, and my grandmother was born in Nanyang, so I'm a fourth-generation immigrant from China. My grandfather came to Nanyang when he was young, so I'm a third-generation immigrant from China. I came from Malaysia to study in Singapore at 13, and three years ago, in 2020, I became a Singaporean citizen. This makes me a first-generation immigrant to Singapore. 

 

我的风水是外公教的。我的外公的风水又是他的外公教的。我们家族好多代人都是堪舆风水的。外公在我三十岁的时候去世。过不久我便继承家业。到十七年后的今天,在世界各地,云龙子旺财馆只有两个地方没有客户。南极和北极。其它地方都有云龙子旺财馆的客户。

My fengshui knowledge was inherited from my grandfather, and my grandfather learnt fengshui from his grandfather. So many generations of our family have been fengshui masters. My grandfather died when I was 30. Soon after, I inherited the family business. Seventeen years later, there are only two locations in the world without my clients: the Antarctic and the Arctic. Lotus on Water's clients is everywhere except for Antarctica and the Arctic. 

 

那我游访的这么多国家里头,除了结识了不同肤色的人,也结识了许多在各个国家落地生根的华人。我们华人,虽然身处国家不同,却有一些共同点:当各地的华人邀请我到他们家中作客的时候,无论是贫穷门第或富贵大家,你会发现他们家里头都会挂上风水画。牡丹花啦、龙凤啦、鲤鱼、金鱼、荷花、山水、等等等等。

In the many countries I have visited, besides meeting people of different colours, I also met Chinese who have sunken roots in various countries. Although we Chinese are in other countries, we have something in common: when Chinese everywhere invite me to their home, whether poor or rich, you will notice a fengshui painting hanging in their home: peony, dragon, phoenix, carp, goldfish, lotus, landscape etc. 

 

可是很奇怪的是,当我表扬他们:“咦!你家里也挂风水画呀?”他们便会很不好意思地否认。说:这些不是风水画啦!我只是喜欢这些鲤鱼的颜色。

又或者,他们会推给家里的老人家。“哎呀!都是我奶奶。说非得挂上这个不可。

But it’s strange that whenever I comment: "So you have fengshui paintings at home?” They would be embarrassed and deny it: “These are not fengshui paintings; I just love the colour of these carps.” Or they would push it to the seniors at home and say: “My grandmother insisted on hanging it.”

 


我们华人的家里(无论是哪个国家的华人),墙上绝对不会挂上骷髅头、不会挂上像毕加索
Picasso 的立体主义cubism画里头被支解成一块一块的人像画。有许多华人的家里,连肖像画也不许挂上墙。我可以简单一点地说,华人家中挂墙上的画,基本上都符合风水画的要求。“画中有图,图必吉祥;画中有字,字必吉利。”
In Chinese homes, regardless of our country, we will never hang a skull on the wall. We won’t hang a cubism painting by Picasso featuring a dismembered human body. To put it simply, the paintings put up in Chinese homes generally meet fengshui requirements. When there’s an image in a painting, that image will be an auspicious motif; when there are words, the terms will be auspicious sayings.

 

我们华人,除了在过年过节的时候,用我们的嘴巴对亲人朋友说出美好、正面的祝福,连我们家中的墙壁,也必须无时无刻,向我们至亲的人传达我们最美好、最幸福的期望。

Apart from festivals like Chinese New Year, when we use our mouths to express blessings to our family and friends, the walls in our homes must always convey our dearest wishes to our loved ones. 

 

不过即然挂风水画有着一个这么善良、美好的用意,我们为什么会不好意思承认自己挂风水画?甚至,以它为恥呢?

原因可能有好几个。我在这里试举三个。

Since hanging fengshui paintings has such a kind and beautiful intention, why are we hesitant to admit that we hang them? Why even be ashamed of it? There may be several reasons; I will give you three possible ones.

 

其一,是许多人认为“风水”本身是迷信的,是不科学的。甚至有“欺骗”的嫌疑。

“风水”,科学不科学?骗人不骗人,不是我今天的课题。也不应该由我来讲给你听。而是应该由我的客户讲给你听。

Firstly, many people believe that fengshui is superstitious and unscientific. Whether fengshui is scientific or not, whether it's a scam or not, that's not the topic for today, nor should I be the one to explain it to you. But instead, it should be defined by my clients. 

 

其二,便是当前的风水画的价值太低。风水画的什么价值太低?文化价值太低,市场价格也太低。

The second reason is that the value of fengshui paintings needs to be higher. What values of the fengshui paintings are too low? The cultural value is too low; its market price is also too low.

 

风水画是人画的。可是当前许多画风水画的人都不是风水师。而许多风水师又不画画。仅剩的一些会画画的风水师又不愿意画风水画。

People paint fengshui paintings, but many of those who paint fengshui paintings today are not fengshui masters. Many fengshui masters do not paint. There are only very few fengshui masters who can paint, but they are not willing to do so.

 

所以,当前的许多风水画都是农民在秋天收成之后,闲来无事,以按图抄写的方式,大量生产风水画,以供市场的需求。这是当前的风水画的状况。

Therefore, farmers copying the patterns produce many current fengshui paintings in large quantities. However, after their autumn harvest, they inevitably look the same with a flat and unremarkable painting style. This is the current state of fengshui paintings.

 

其三。当前的风水画的舞台太低。我们很少看到正统的博物馆,高档的画廊,大品牌的拍卖公司,展览风水画。

The third reason is that fengshui paintings have a small stage. We rarely see traditional museums, high-end galleries, and big brand auction houses exhibiting fengshui paintings. 

 

那风水画本身是否真的是一种没有历史背景、没有文化底蕴的无根之物?它是否完全是无稽之谈、是江湖术士骗人钱财的套路?如果真是这样,为什么白莲教灭绝了,罗马帝国灭亡了,埃及不再建造金字塔,制作木乃伊了;不被人看重,甚至让人瞧不起的风水画却无声无息地在各地华人家里默默绽放?

So is fengshui painting really without history or cultural heritage? Is it just a scam that charlatans use to deceive people for money? Why did the White Lotus Sect go extinct if that's the case? Why did the Roman Empire fall? Why did Egypt stop building pyramids and making mummies? Whilst fengshui paintings, which are not valued or even despised by people, are silently blooming in the homes of Chinese all over the world?

 

邹衍是春秋战国时期,百花齐放之时,阴阳五行学说的创始人。听说有一天他到了某个地区,当时天寒地冻,寸草不生。邹衍对着大地吹奏音乐长达三天三夜。接着,春暖花开,大地回春。可以这样说,早在春秋时期,己有风水音乐,只是现今失传而已。将风水能量溶入艺术如:音乐、书画、雕塑之中,是不是始于春秋时代?我认为是更早。出土文物当中,最早与风水哲学有关系的,是凌家滩文化的玉龟。玉龟里头有一块玉版,上头雕有原始八卦图。凌家滩文化距今多少年?大约5300年。这是个什么概念?孔子出生的春秋时代距今2500年,可是5300年以前的凌家滩文化已经出现了有风水概念的雕刻。

Zou Yan lived during the Warring States when many schools of thought emerged. He’s the founder of the theory of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements. One day he arrived in a particular region, the weather was freezing, and no grass grew. Zou Yan played music to the earth for three days and three nights. After that, spring arrived, and the flowers bloomed again. It can be said that fengshui music already existed in the Spring and Autumn period, but it has been lost. Incorporating fengshui energy into art such as music, calligraphy, painting, and sculpture, did it originate in the Spring and Autumn period? I think it's even earlier. Among the unearthed cultural relics, the earliest one related to fengshui is a jade turtle from the Lingjiatan culture. A jade tablet inside the turtle is carved with an original Eight Trigrams design. How long ago was the Lingjiatan culture? Approximately 5300 years ago. What’s the significance? The Spring and Autumn period when Confucius was born was 2500 years ago. However, 5300 years ago, during the Lingjiatan culture, carvings with fengshui concepts had already appeared. 

 

那么风水艺术是不是只专属我们华人的呢?西方艺术历史著作家,贡布里希先生,E.H. Gombrich 在他的美术史著作《艺术的故事》The Story of Art里头,第一章,研究了原始人在山洞里头留下的壁画。他说:“艺术在最开始的时候,与我们现今对艺术的概念是不一样的。当时的艺术不是一种装饰品,而是一种近似于“法术”的东西。

贡布里希的原文是Magic。有的中文翻译成“法术”,有的中文翻译成“巫术”。可是“法术”与“巫术”都含有贬义,与原文的Magic不相符。所以我翻译成“超自然能量”。

So, is fengshui art exclusive to Chinese culture? The Western art historian Sir Gombrich, in the first chapter of his art history book The Story of Art, which studied cave paintings left by primitive humans, stated that art, in the beginning, was not the same as our contemporary concept of art and was not just a form of decoration. Instead, it is something akin to “magic”. Gombrich used the English term “magic”, Which some Chinese translations render as fashu or wushu. However, both fashu and wushu have negative connotations. Therefore, they do not accurately reflect the original term “magic”. Thus, I translated it as “supernatural energy”. 

 


贡布里希认为,原始人的艺术是一种超自然能量。比方说他们在石壁上画一只野兽,然后用弓箭射它,用石块砸它。然后就觉得自己已经把猎物降服了。
可见这种艺术的信仰十分接近风水艺术。所以我很有理由相信风水艺术是全人类的,大家开始都把艺术当成超自然事物。只是华人把原来艺术的概念,以风水艺术形式,更好地保留了下来。
Gombrich believes that primitive art is a form of supernatural energy. For example, when they painted a wild animal on a rock wall and then shot arrows at it or threw stones at it. They believed they had conquered their prey. This belief is very similar to the idea in fengshui, so I have good reason to think that fengshui art is universal. Everyone used to consider art as a supernatural thing at first. But the Chinese have better preserved the original concept of art in the form of fengshui art. 

 

如果你再不相信可以拜访一下洋人的住宅。在西方美术里头,毕加索的画是最昂贵的。可是那是在拍卖行里头。在洋人的家里,你很少发现他们墙上挂有毕加索的作品,也很少挂有他的作品的印刷版。而洋人家里,挂的往往是法国印象派French Impressionism 的作品及其印刷品。而印象派里头常画的是江河湖水、莲花垂柳。十分符合我们华人风水画的要求。所以无论是华人还是洋人,似乎是心灵本能的,都喜欢风水画。所以风水画不是无根之物,甚至可以说它有着一个非常辉煌的前生。

If you don't believe it, you can visit the homes of Westerners. In Western art, Picasso's paintings are the most expensive, but that's in auction houses. In Westerners' homes, you rarely find Picasso's works hanging on the walls or many of his prints. Instead, Western homes often have pieces of French Impressionism and its prints hanging on the walls. Impressionist paintings often depict rivers, lakes, lotus flowers, and willow trees, which align with the Chinese fengshui paintings. So whether Chinese or Westerners, there is an instinctual liking for fengshui paintings. Therefore, fengshui paintings are not without historical backing; they even have a brilliant past. 

 

既然风水画的前生是辉煌的,是全人类共同拥有的,而当今的際遇不堪明朗,这表示它除了有进步的空间,也有增值的空间。

Since feng shui paintings have a glorious past shared by all of humanity. But the current situation is still being determined. This indicates that there is not only room for improvement but also room for value appreciation. 

 

我己经针对上头所说的风水画的三个方面的欠缺作出了许多的补救。而且,一直努力不懈地增加风水艺术的价值。我们一直说“价值”、“价值”。似乎是先有价才有值。我认为应该把这个词改一改,说“值价、值价。应该是先有值,然后价会跟着来。“值”有虚也有实,有阴也有阳。

I mentioned three shortcomings of fengshui paintings just now and have made many remedies for them. First, I have been tirelessly working to increase the value of fengshui art. We always discuss “value-worth” as if the matter comes before worth. I think this word should be changed to “worth-value”. It should be “worth” before “value”, and “worth” be either “abstract” or “real” or yin and yang. 

 

我先说“实”的值吧!我个人是个很务实的人,十分相信“实”的东西。所以我们的风水馆卖的,都是十分真实的东西。我们的风水馆,十六年前成立的时候,是新加坡第一家,至今为止,依然可能是唯一一家只卖百分之分天然翡翠的风水馆。有一些人认为,只要有你有信念,用塑料珠子做的风水都可以点石成金。可是,如果连“实”的材料都是假的,那么“虚”的风水能量有可能是真的吗?所以江湖上对我们的风水馆只有一句批评,“贵”。我们最便宜的入门产品都要新加坡币一万元。可是效果却是非同凡响的。

Let me talk about the “real” worth first. I am a very practical person; I believe in things that are real. So our fengshui gallery sells only very authentic items. When our fengshui gallery was established 16 years ago, it was the first and possibly the only fengshui gallery in Singapore that sold only 100% natural jadeite. Some people believe that fengshui objects made of plastic beads can have magical powers as long as you have faith. I'm not sure about that. If even the “real” materials are fake, can the “abstract” fengshui energy be real? The criticism we receive in the industry is that we are expensive. Even our cheapest entry-level product costs SGD10,000. But the effect is extraordinary. 

 

有人问我:“你不可以卖便宜一点的东西吗?让客人先小旺个幾千元才来买贵的。”我说啊!要小旺个几千,甚至几万元,何必做风水?加班加点不就行了吗?

Some people ask if I can sell something cheaper? Let our clients make a few thousand first. How did I reply? There’s no need to rely on fengshui if you want a few thousand more, work some overtime and put in some extra effort. 

 

我们云龙子旺财馆卖的任何东西,除了必须有风水效果,还必须符合三个要求:美丽的、恒久的,稀罕的。

Lotus on Water’s products, besides having fengshui effects, must fulfil three requirements: beauty, durability, and rarity. 

 

同样的,我也把这个理念用在我的风水画里。在我作画的材料里,常常令许多人惊艳的是,我会用真金与白银作画。除了真金白银之外。我其它的许多作画材质,都十分珍贵。比方说我的泼彩。我很喜欢张大千的泼墨山水。但我泼彩用的却是香槟,而且是法国的罗兰柏悦香槟。幸好法国罗兰柏悦香槟是我的赞助。

I also apply this principle to my fengshui paintings. My materials often amaze me because I use real gold and silver. Besides gold and silver, many of my other painting materials are also very precious. For example, for my splashed ink paintings, I love Zhang Daqian's ink landscape paintings, but I use champagne instead of ink. Specifically, I use Laurent-Perrier champagne from France. Fortunately, they sponsor me. 

 

罗兰柏悦是法国五大香槟品牌之一。酿制香槟世家有二百多年之久,他们第一次与画家合作,把画作印在他们的酒瓶上的,不是一个法国画家,而是一位华人的风水画。我除了感恩祖上这么多代风水的加持,也十分荣幸自己能为风水画的来生裹上一层华丽的锦衣。

Laurent-Perrier is one of the top five champagne brands in France. They have been producing champagne for over 200 years, and it’s the first time they collaborated with a painter to print a painting on their champagne bottle. It was not a French painter but a Chinese fengshui artist. Besides being grateful for the blessing of my ancestors' fengshui, I am also very honoured to add a layer of gorgeousness to the future of fengshui paintings. 

 

除了这种"实”的价值,我们也为风水画增加了“虚”的值。我所说的“虚”,不是“虚假”的“虚”。而是一种“形而上”的能量。往往虚与实是阴阳相依的。我和柬埔寨的王室是十分要好的朋友。王子公主殿下们常常会飞到新加坡来找我玩几天。每次过来我会送他们一些礼物。他们也很礼貌地回礼。直到后来他们说:“云大师,不如你告诉我们你要什么,你好像什么都有了。每次想送什么给你都让我们想疯了。”

Besides the “real” value, we add “abstract” value to fengshui paintings. What I mean by “abstract” is not “fake” but a kind of metaphysical energy. Often, the “abstract” and the “real” are interdependent. I am an excellent friend of the Cambodian royal family. The princes and princesses often fly over to spend time with me. I give them gifts every time they come, and they politely return the favour. Later, they said: “Master Yun, why don't you tell us what you want as it seems like you have everything. Whenever we try to give you something, we go crazy thinking about it.” 

 

后来我无意中硏究到,我们作画用的藤黄,最好的其实是产自柬埔寨的。原来啊,在十七世纪欧洲著名油画家,比方说:伦勃朗Rembrandt, 在作画的时候也只舍得用上一点点的柬埔寨的滕黄。我马上打电话给柬埔寨的天娑王子,问他:你们国家是不是有出产这种颜料。藤黄。学名叫Garcinia Cambogia。王子一听,说,有啊!我们皇宫里头拿来送给得道高僧,用来染他们的袈裟的便是这种颜料。你喜欢我下次拿一些过来送你。我一听开心得不得了。说,下回你过来,什么都别拿来送我,就送我这个藤黄行了。

Later, I researched and found out that the best gamboge used in our paintings is produced in Cambodia. In the 17th century, renowned European oil painter Rembrandt only used a tiny amount of Cambodian gamboge when painting. I immediately called Prince Tesso of Cambodia and asked if their country produced a paint called gamboge, scientifically known as Garcinia Cambogia. The prince confirmed that they did and used it to dye the robes of their high-ranking monks. He offered to bring some over for me, and I happily agreed. I told him not to get me anything next time he comes; bring me gamboge.

 

所以我的风水画里头除了有连伦勃朗都不舍得用的藤黄(这藤黄是“实”的值),而且这藤黄还带有王气。(而“王气”便是一种形而上,虚的值)。那你说,这种“虚”的值,到底是真的还是假的呢?当然,这个答案最好是由我的客户回复你。

不过我可以告诉你,我自己的一个亲身经历。

So in my fengshui paintings, I used gamboge, which even Rembrandt couldn’t bear to use. This gamboge carries a “real” value and a royal aura, a metaphysical value. But is this "metaphysical" value real or fake? My clients would answer best, but I can share a personal experience. 

 

疫情期间,我们很多很多事情不能做。不能出国,不能出门,不能见朋友,不能逛街。所以,我便多出了许多时间在家做两件事:画风水画与睡觉。因为疫情期间睡太多了嘛,便睡不着。有一个晚上,我在床上瞪大着眼睛,望着墙壁上,我自己画的风水画里头的一只孔雀。我对那只孔雀说:这段时间,我哪里都不能去,日日夜夜都对着你,望着你。请问,你到底有什么能量,能够帮助我完成一些我平时都不能完成的事情吗?

During the pandemic, when many things were not allowed. No international travel, going out, meeting friends, or shopping. I spent more time at home doing two things: painting feng shui paintings and sleeping. However, sleeping too much caused me to have trouble falling asleep. One night, I was lying in bed staring at the peacock I painted in my fengshui painting. I said to the peacock. During this period, I cannot go anywhere; I look at your day and night; what kind of energy do you have that can help me accomplish things that I usually cannot?

 

我一说完,心里突然有一种莫名的感觉。有点儿好像通了电一样,又有点好像周围亮起来了一样。总之,好像那只孔雀听到了我说什么,而且,回应了我。

As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly felt strange, like an electric current was flowing through me. It seemed as if the surroundings were becoming brighter; it was as if the peacock heard what I was saying and responded to me.

 

那后来发生了什么事呢?长话短说,我受中国中央电视台的邀请,在长城展览了我的风水画。当时20201217日。万里长城,那是三千五百年历史的世界七大奇观之首啊!我竟然是第一个,至今是唯一个上长城展览风水画的人。这难道是我画得比别人好吗?这绝对不可能。中国有十四亿人口,全世界又有这么多艺术家,画得比我好的人太多了。我只可以说我特别幸运,也是我风水画里头的孔雀,把我的风水画带上了长城。也或者说,这是个预兆,风水艺术,有着凤凰浴火重生的再生能力。它华丽灿烂的来世既将到临。

What happened later? Long story short, I accepted an invitation from China CCTV to exhibit my fengshui paintings on the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall of China is one of the world's Seven Wonders with a history of 3500 years. I’m the first and only person to hold a fengshui art exhibition on the Great Wall. Is this because I painted better than others? This is not possible. China has a population of 1.4 billion, so many artists are better than me. I can only say that I am fortunate, and the peacock in my feng shui painting brought my paintings to the Great Wall. Perhaps this is a sign that feng shui art can be reborn like a phoenix. Its magnificent and brilliant future is about to arrive.

 

去年,我很荣幸受邀到南洋理工大学讲课。课题是:《风水艺术中的富裕哲学》来听课的,有许多是资深的学者与教授。在大学学府里头讲风水画,应该是前所未曾发生过的事。我想,许多人开始意识到风水画绝不是一个廉价落伍的商品,也不是一个没有哲学深度,美学含量的行货。风水画有深厚的人性历史文化前生,虽然经历遭人无知蔑视的今貌,却即将享有华丽转身的来世。

Last year, I was honoured to be invited to a lecture at NTU titled The Philosophy of Prosperity in Feng Shui Paintings. Many of the attendees were senior scholars and professors. To talk about fengshui painting at a university is unheard of. Many people are beginning to realise that fengshui painting is neither a cheap and outdated product nor a commodity without philosophical depth and aesthetics. Fengshui art has a profound historical and cultural background. Although it has been despised due to ignorance, it is about to have a magnificent turn in the future. 

 

这次的“妙笔生花”国际女性艺术家作品展,让本岛聚合了海内外重量级的艺术家

我个人很喜欢传统的艺术,也很喜欢现代艺术。喜欢东方的美术,也喜欢西方的美术。我以前听现代艺术家批评传统艺术为传统而传统,又听到传统艺术家批评现代艺术家为现代而现代。所以我个人常常引以为戒。千万别只为画风水画而画风水画。也别只为艺术而艺术。

This “Elegant Strokes, Exquisite Art” International Women Artists Exhibition has brought together heavyweight artists worldwide. I like traditional art, but I also like modern art. I like both Eastern and Western art. I used to hear contemporary artists criticise traditional artists, saying they were keeping to standard for the sake of tradition. Then I heard traditional artists criticise contemporary artists, saying they were being contemporary for the sake of being trendy. I personally always take this as a warning. Don't just draw fengshui paintings for the sake of doing so, and don't just do art for the sake of doing art. So why do I draw fengshui paintings? Because it can make people prosperous. Not just one person but everyone.

 

你想看,一幅风水画挂在大厅里,不是一个人看到的,而是全家人看到的。还有亲戚朋友来也看到,左邻右舍来窜门也能看到,儿子女儿的同学朋友过来也能看到。你想,一个人很有才能,富贵了。可是如果子女不夠贤孝,那这个富贵能够千秋万载吗。又想想,一个人很富贵,可是朋友亲戚都很穷,难道不怕亲朋亲友来借,来妒嫉,来算计吗?一个人富贵了。可是社会里如果有许多人还是赤贫的,又怎么做到路不拾遗、夜不闭户呢?

Imagine a fengshui painting hanging in the living room. Not just seen by one person, but by the whole family: relatives, friends, neighbours, and friends of your children can come and see it. Think about it, if one person is talented and wealthy, but their children are not virtuous and filial. Can this wealth and prosperity last for generations? If one person is rich, but their friends and relatives are all poor, won't they fear that others will borrow, envy, or plot against them? If one person is wealthy, many people in society are impoverished. How can they be a society where people don't pick up lost items and doors don't have to be locked at night?

 

有人说,让人不做坏事有三个方法:不敢做,不能做,不必做。

There are three simple ways to make people not do bad things: One is that they are afraid to do it, the second is that they cannot do it, and the third is that they do not need to do it. 

 

新加坡法律很森严,夜晚走在街上很安全,这叫不不敢做。银行大厦的门户十分牢固,盗贼不能进到里头偷钱,这叫不能做。如果大家都能共同富贵,忙着愉悦地赚钱,根本不必偷偷抢抢,这叫不必做

Singapore's laws are strict, and it’s safe to walk on the streets at night; this is called being afraid to do it. The doors of banks are very secure, and burglars cannot enter to steal money. This is called not being able to do it. But if everyone can be wealthy together and be busy joyfully making money, there will be no need to steal or rob. This is called not needing to do bad things.

 

这,我希望,便是风水画的目的与精神。让人富贵起来,而不必打歪心思,邪念头。谓之:“思无邪”。

The purpose and spirit of fengshui paintings are to make people wealthy without resorting to twisted and evil thoughts. This is called thinking without evil.

 

在此祝福您:富贵传千代,吉祥满人间。

I wish you all the best. May wealth and prosperity be passed down for generations, and may auspiciousness fill the world.

云大师获颁泰国皇室国王勋章致辞 | Master Yun's Speech on Receiving the Imperial Order of King of Thailand


尊敬的泰国国王及人民,尊敬的中国领导与人民,尊敬的来自全世界的朋友。

To Your Majesty, my respected Thai King and people, my respected Chinese leaders and people, my respected friends from all over the world.

Swasdee Krup.


今天我感到非常荣幸,能够来到泰国曼谷,获取:

2023东盟最具影响力企业,

2023东盟公益慈善人物,

以及泰国皇室国王的勋章。

I am very honored today, to come to Bangkok Thailand, to receive the special awards and decoration of the Thai King His Majesty:

2023 ASEAN Most Influential Enterprise,

2023 ASEAN Personage of Philanthropy,

Imperial Order of King of Thailand.




我虽然出生在马来西亚,现在是新加坡公民。泰国及泰国人民,在我心中有一个特殊的地位。正如中国,在我心中也有一个特殊的地位。

Although I was born in Malaysia, I am now a Singapore citizen. Thailand and Thai people, possess a special place in my heart. Just like China, also possesses a special place in my heart.


我出身在一个风水世家,家中好几代人是风水师。我三十岁出道,四十岁宣布退隐江湖。虽然我创立的云龙子旺财馆持续蓬勃发展,但我个人自四十岁开始深居简出,闭关修炼。

I was born in a family heritage of Feng Shui. Many generations of people in my family were Feng Shui Masters. I started my Feng Shui career at the age of thirty, and retired as an emeritus master at the age of forty. Although Lotus on Water, the institution I have established, continues to flourish and develop, but I started my secluded and meditative life since forty.


我修行的其中一个法门便是书法画画,将冥思里头所领受到的灵感及启发挥洒于纸上。

One of my methods of meditation is painting and calligraphy. I transfer the inspiration, revelation and enlightenment I have gotten from my meditation onto paper.



2017年我在新加坡开了第一场风水画展。似乎是天地应和,脚一步踏出去,路便开了。法国罗兰柏悦香槟主动赞助了我,柬埔寨的天娑王子愿意成为我的主宾。

2017, I held my first solo feng shui art exhibition in Singapore. It was as though the heaven and earth conspired in orchestration, the path opened as I marched my first step forward. The French Laurent-Perrier Champagne has since been my sponsor. His Royal Highness, Prince Tesso Sisowath of Cambodia agreed to be my guest of honor.


2018年,我在泰国曼谷开了一场风水画展,那是我走出新加坡国门,向海外出航的第一场风水画展。所以我的心中对泰国有一份特殊的感恩,特别的情感。

In the subsequent year 2018, I held a feng shui art exhibition in Bangkok Thailand. That was my first art exhibition out of my own country traveling towards the world. Thus, Thailand will always hold a highly esteemed position of gratitude and love in my heart.


2020年,全球经历疫情的肆虐。在这水深火热的情况,中国中央电视台邀请了我上万里長城展览了我的风水画作。中国的万里长城有三千五百年的历史,是世界七大奇观之首,我却是第一个上万里长城开画展的艺术家。我认为这是我这一生最最大的荣耀。所以中国于我,更有一份非比寻常的情深义重。

In year 2020, the world was tormented by the pandemic. At such a crucial period, I was invited by China Central Television to hold my Feng Shui Art Exhibition at the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall of China has a grand history of 3500 years, the greatest wonder of the world, and yet, I was given the privilege to hold my art exhibition there as an artist. It is the greatest honor I have received in my entire life. Thus China also has a special esteemed position in my heart.


我记得当年准备在泰国曼谷办画展之时,非常不幸的,泰国先王拉玛九世仙逝。泰国举国哀痛,全球震惊。我虽然不是泰国公民,可是对于泰国先王的种种善举,早有所闻。心中对于先王敬天爱民的神性人品,是敬虔地景仰而祟拜。

I remember when I was preparing for my Bangkok art exhibition in Bangkok, the late Thai King, His Majesty Rama the Ninth passed away. The world was shaken. And all the Thai people were deeply sadden. Although I am not Thai, I knew for ages, the many benevolent acts of His Majesty. I deeply respect with great admiration, the godly spirit and humane touches of his majesty the late King.


据我所知,当今泰王也十分热心公益慈善事业,特别是教育事业。有句话说,“于人以鱼不如于人以渔”。对于当今泰王的公益慈善的方式,我特别打从内心地认同。

I am also told, that the present Thai King, His Majesty Rama the Tenth, has always committed greatly and wisely, to acts of kindness, especially in the area of education. It is better to teach one how to fish than to give one a fish. I agree, with all respect and admiration, the methods of sowing kindness to the world, of His Majesty, the present Thai King.



今天,在中国领导的引荐之下,我又到了泰国来,十分荣幸地获颁泰王特殊的“公益慈善”奖。我必须说,接受此奖,我自认“不夠资格”。我更愿意以学子虚心请教的心态,借此奖激励并提醒自己,向两任泰王的祟高人格学习。

And today, through the recommendation of Chinese leaders, I have arrived again to Thailand, to receive the special Awards and decoration from His Majesty. I must say I feel undeserving. And that I should, with humility of an ernest learner, take this opportunity of the awarded decoration, to inspire and constantly remind myself, to learn and emulate the godly benevolent personality of Their Majesties.


我们不但赏识社会中高生产力的人,也得给于社会中没有生产力或低生产力的人提升的机会,特别是学习及教育的机会,让他们也能夠为世界作出正面的影响与贡献。

We give recognition and reward not just towards the members of the society who are highly productive, but also opportunities towards those in the society who are incapable of productivity so that they may rise to be capable of giving positive contributions and influence to the world.


尊敬的泰国国王与人民,尊敬的中国领导与人民,尊敬的来自全球的朋友们,感谢您给于的机会,我向您学习来了。

To the highly respected Thai King Your Majesty and the Thai people, to the respected Chinese leaders and the people, to the friends from all over the world, thank you for this precious moment and opportunity. I am here to humbly learn from you.

九紫春彩山 (Part 2)

馆里最近来了一批特别的水晶山子, 不同于以往太白金银山的颜色, 这些是粉色, 紫色的。九运时山气会特别弱, 需要有一到两座水晶山扶持山气, 旺人丁, 守财, 旺貴人等。简董在这里特别回复了一些关于九紫春彩山的问题。


2024年2月4日立春, 也就是下一个立春非常重要, 不仅进入新的年份, 进入一个大运, 新的20年。现在所做的准备不仅是为一年, 而是20年。还记得20年前您在做什么吗? 多一个20年您是多大年纪又会在哪里? 那个时候您希望自己是怎样的人, 全家是什么样子, 那么现在就要为九运做好准备。




一个人一生没有几个20年, 现在是最好的投资, 事半功倍, 如果您现在是20多岁, 事业的黄金发展阶段,就更加不能错过。20年占1/4人生, 并且是时间金钱精力都俱备的盛年, 请一座山回家, 价钱平均到每一年很划算, 而且还没有计算能旺多少。


火代表intelligence, wisdom, creativity, 以后的经济会变成knowledge based economy, 你能不能有知识和创意在九运就变得至关重要, 用功很重要, 但如果缺了一点点灵感或创造力, 可能在九运失去竞争力, 到了九运会更加混乱, 就算在九运最旺的行业, 你也会排在最后一名。 但是就算处在不被大家看好的行业, 做好了风水借到力, 还是会出其不意成为佼佼者。


九运中必备四样宝物。 云大师的风水艺术, 檀香必不可少, 檀香能让您工作, 生意, 投资得到灵感, 更上一层楼, 一人一枚守护神, 九运九紫春彩山。上一个九运180年前1844年英国日不落帝国越来越强, 殖民地印度和澳洲2个地方都出产檀香。 再180年前有两个君主, 法国的路易十四和中国的康熙皇帝, 都非常爱檀香, 2017年拍卖行拍卖过康熙皇帝的檀香印玺, 价值9000万港币。由此可见方法比座位更重要, 方法不对, 不会得到相应的财富。宏愿圆炉也是四样宝物其中一样。


一个国家做得好不代表每个人都发一样的财, 经济好的时候也会有人破产。如果您有一所面向南方的房子, 要把它的风水格局潜力发掘出来, 善用手里的资源可以比现在的您过得更好。


九运适合买房地产吗?我们通常能看到即使是相同情况的物业, 住在里面的人发展不尽相同, 房子也卖出不同的价钱, 因为人们所作决定不同。

九运适合买黄金吗? 云大师开光, 鎏金, 风水艺术都需要用到真金, 金在各个年代都有保值的潜力, 但对于个人如果将它投资在自己身上也许效果更大。风水艺术既有黄金, 又有可以开发灵感创意, 天人感应的力量。在每个180年前都是人类艺术文化发展很快的时候, 艺术文化的价值可能比黄金发展更快。


在The Greater Southern Waterfront规划之前,我们已经知道南方大旺。如果您已经住在南方或有一间房子在南方, 那么恭喜您。如果您不住南方, 一样可以通过风水借到九运的东风。


一到了九运就会有新的气场进来, 变幻莫测不可以耽搁。天然的旺财宝物迟早没有货, 像风水艺术随着受欢迎的程度越来越高, 资源越来越少, 价钱也会不一样。从现在到下一个立春还有300多天, 把握九运最好有最好的水晶山子在身边, 山管人丁水管财, 现在的财富要带进下一个运, 人际关系要稳, 如果您看到潜力, 现在就请回家, 现在就开始旺。

愿您每一天都是好日, 每一年都是好年。 赶快亲自来馆挑选吧, 记得到时跟Cola预约81378024。

九紫春彩山 (Part 1)

馆里最近来了一批特别的水晶山子, 不同于以往太白金银山的颜色, 这些是粉色, 紫色的。记忆力很好的朋友也许还记得多年前已经推出这个系列, 当时只推出了数量有限的几座, 很短时间就被请完了, 现在的这些山是当时保留起来, 就是为专门旺来临的九运。


九运是2024年2月4日立春开始的20年, 家里需要有山和水, 山和水如果能相互扶持, 会有财有丁, 但是在九运时山气会特别弱, 需要有一到两座水晶山扶持山气, 旺人丁, 守财, 旺贵人等。


九运南方最旺, 南方属火, 火的五行颜色就是红, 粉, 紫。山子应合火元素所以称为”九紫”, 到了九运九紫星最强, 每一个时期都有最相应的宝物, 就像钥匙对应锁, 最容易让人旺到的。 春彩, 既有春天的意思, 又有"采青"的财之意, 春天的财富。春天的财运, 春天是新的一年的开始, 代表新的财富。八运中很多客人越来越旺, 有些从打工人做到老板, 开启了自己的事业并且规模越来越大, 但是曾经拥有的不代表进入九运仍然可以一样, 现在的富贵能否守护住带到九运非常重要。


以前请的水晶山子还是可以用, 已经让您旺到, 拥有了一些产业。九运中有破天荒改朝换代的机会, 上一次九运是180年前, 那时一些大国崛起, 并且在后来的百年间一直旺。如果您遇到瓶颈还可以趁九运寻求突破, 已经做得好的还可以加强, 比如您换了更大的房子, 2000平方尺, 之前请的一座山也许不够用了。九运非常动荡, 好的气来到您的家先找与之相应的颜色, 九紫山就是准备之一。


旺财馆的山子严格依照典型的清朝乾隆山子雕法雕刻, 在今天的拍卖行, 能见到跟馆里相似的的山子。 如果你到过北京故宫, 一定对皇家摆设有深刻印象, 山子以前只会在皇家或富贵人家出现。 山形有讲究, 有低阔的笔架山, 高瘦入云的山峰等等, 古人讲究天人合一, 大自然跟人类共同相处的概念。


好的山是有人气的, 人气代表有亭台楼阁, 有桥梁和梯级道路通往房子, 这些都象征家里人气, 人际关系融洽。


桥梁意思connection, 往上升, 有更好的贵人和人际关系。峰回路转, 松树总是出现在意想不到的地方, 并非人栽种, 可遇而不可求。 松树代表健康, 而出现在山子中的树是金钱松, 金钱松叶子圆圆像钱币层层叠叠, 财运可以非常长久。金钱松和馆很有渊源, 想要知道亲自来馆问简董吧!


这个系列比较多出现的还有人物, 九运中贵人可谓是非常重要。这些山中仙人神态是指着天, 仙人指路。地上的道路通常看得到, 当我们面临选择需要灵感时宇宙的力量告诉我们看不到的路。

快马疾行的骑马人


指路的行人


另一个大热门檀香, 和九紫山旺不同的, 但结合在一起威力更大。不同于戴翡翠牌, 一座水晶山可以照顾很多家庭成员, 每个人都可以得到水晶山子的旺气, 如果您的家庭越大, 小孩老人住在同一个屋檐下, 水晶山子不可以少的。

这一批的九紫山有20座, 现在已经走了一半, 现在请九紫山, 现在就可以放家中旺八运的地方, 2024年山水会换位, 到时再配合家中风水换到有利位置。九运家里需要有两座水晶山, 如果您还没有山, 九紫春彩山会是一个很棒的开始。它不仅是一座水晶山, 还是专门为九运量身定做的风水宝物。


同样大小的九紫山比太白金银山价位稍低, 九紫山越大越好, 其次越透光越好, 粉晶的特性不像白水晶, 里面不会完全清澈, 通常有天然纹理, 因为本身没有像白水晶一样透光, 所以雕刻成山子的粉晶山通常会稍大一些。现在是好机会可以用同样的价钱买到一座更大的水晶山。相比于20年大运, 时间不能重来, 在取舍之间更重要。


风水馆的水晶山子是从矿直接开采来的, 没有中间商。 这样确保了水晶是天然的, 没有经过加工, 保留了最原始的能量, 经过云大师的开光, 能够完全的让我们受益。

愿您每一天都是好日, 每一年都是好年。 赶快亲自来馆挑选吧, 记得到时跟Cola预约81378024。

The Path Towards Prosperity

I have a conversation with Hogan and after being in Lotus on Water for 3 years, he feels that it is high time for him to share with you. It may be fate that you chance upon this article but it takes a lot from Hogan to pen down his thoughts and share.


 “Men are anxious to improve their circumstances but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound.”

- James Allen


Are you feeling lost? 

Are you at a crossroad searching for what to do in your life? 

Do you feel that you have done a lot of hardwork and you are not doing better than your peers?

Do you doubt yourself whether this is the furthest in your career you can go?

How can you have more money to provide for your family and loved ones?


How I started

If you have all these questions in your mind, its ok, do not despair. I am once like you, 3 years ago. I am hardworking, putting lots of hours at work, exchanging time for money. I am not stupid, bosses and seniors also like me but yet somehow, my salary is mediocre. I can't seem to get ahead to earn high salary like other people. What have I done wrong in my life? Am I unlucky? Is this my destined path that I bound to deserved? I excel in what I do and yet, there is this catalyst that I am missing.

One day, I saw in my Facebook newsfeed that my primary school friend had bought something from Lotus on Water Fengshui Gallery. I hurriedly contacted her and arranged for an appointment. I have known about this place since school days. Words were that only the rich people would go in. In my mind, I used to think if I would be able to be like the riches and enter this place ever.


The Consultation / Appointment

During the appointment, Mr Kan verified with me about the happenings in my past 30 years and also told me what were ahead of my life and how Lotus on Water could help me. Now, for those that don’t know, another reason why Lotus on Water is famous is because their stuff is expensive. What he recommended to me was a white jadeite bamboo pendant because it is in my element color and it can guide me to the right path in my career. BUT! It would cost me almost $11,000. 


My Thought Process

Is this real? Should I take it or leave it?

In my mind, I asked myself. 

Cons: What if I bought it and then it did not help me. I would lose this $11,000 which I scrimped and saved for so many years. It would take me another 5 years to save up this amount. 

Pros: I had been working for past 20 years of my life and yet, I was heading nowhere. What if this works miraculously? What if it opens the path of prosperity ahead of me? What if there will be endless opportunities opening up for the next 20 years? What if my life gets better? What if I earn more money? What if I get more money to spend? The pros outweighed the cons which made me take the leap of faith to step forward.




And Today

My 3 years later, which is now, not only have I earned back what I paid for the jadeite, the opportunities it brings me have me move up in my career. The benefactor and lady luck shine upon me. I am no longer an employee and I own multiple business. The best part? The jadeite will still continue to bring me fortune year after year for the rest of my life.



What You Can Do

Now, if you wish to seek some breakthrough in your life, you can call them at 8137 8024 to schedule an appointment. 

Just ask yourself, how many 10 years do you have. Is ur life worth only this much? 

And lastly, don’t you want your life to be better?

2023年 2月26日Daisuke San品酒会

国际品酒大师大辅先生(Daisuke San)与简董,2月26日为云龙子的客户提供一个愉悦的下午, 品酒会以珍藏美酒配云大师的风水画。 当天的4款佳酿都是产自南半球(Southern Hemisphere), 4幅云大师的风水画选自廊外有画峇厘专辑 (Art Beyond Museum Bali Edition)。峇厘专辑里面一共展示了8幅风水画和书法, 还在陆续拍摄当中, 那就让我们通过美酒品味这些画作。



leeuwin estate art series chardonnay 2014

分享2014年西澳州玛格利特河露纹酒庄艺术系列100%霞多丽白葡萄酒, 散发着蜜瓜, 杏, 柑橘, 葡萄柚,番石榴以及矿物木质气息, 入口果香馥郁, 酸度高, 并伴有蜂蜜的风味, 回味愉悦而悠长。


Leeuwin Estate是40 years酒庄, 由Denis 和 Tricia Horgan, Robert Mondavi合作建于1973, 在此之前1970年代到80年代, 澳洲的酒并不出名, 人们认为那只是酒吧喝的酒。玛格丽特河是澳洲西部靠近Perth的著名的产酒地, 西澳炎热干旱的夏天和温和的冬季让葡萄浓郁, 有丰富果香。

Daisuke San (right) and Sarah Eleuthero

Chardonnay是一种专门用来酿白葡萄酒的青皮葡萄, 以它命名澳洲最盛产的永恒的酒, 象征澳洲的酒享誉世界。通常见到白葡萄酒产自2019, 2020, 2021年份, 人们喝白葡萄酒是为了享受它的新鲜度, 通常1-3年就可以喝了, 超过3年就是陈酿。 更高品质的酒才值得继续保存下去, 9年在白葡萄酒中是非常久了。


年份小的白葡萄酒有非常清新的柑橘柠檬香, 年份稍久的酒有桃子, 菠萝, 蜜瓜, 百香果的味道, 颜色方面年份少的白葡萄酒是柠檬皮的浅黄色, 年份稍大是比较深的黄, 直至啤酒的金色。这瓶酒9年颜色还是柠檬黄, 说明它可以再放多5-10年, 还有升值的空间。时间越长酒的层次就越丰富, 10年后可能会有百香果的气味。画也一样, 时间越长画的价值和主人的富裕程度也增长, 这就是艺术的生命。 我们将画作收藏越久, 身边的友谊和爱也会在我们身边长存。


黄鹤永胜-Yellow Crane with Everlasting Victory SGD128,868

一幅拥有无限财富的黄鹤, 云大师用英文和中文写的祈祷文在背景的天空像雨一下落下, 为你带来沐浴在富裕中的祝福, 这些一行一行的祈祷文各种颜色如同彩虹, 让鹤周围的牡丹竞相开放, 鹤本身也被染成彩虹色, 如同它自己的梦境。鹤的姿态是弯曲颈项成为一个8字, 并且看向自己。 8象征无限, 具有非常强劲的能量。同时拥有充满活力和永恒两个元素非常不容易, 因为活力通常不会持久。如果你需要持久的热情和活力, 这幅画是好选择。


Meerlust rubicon 2017

rubicon是南非的波爾多混釀的先驱, 它的颜色是明亮的红宝石色, 我们能闻到黑醋栗, 李子, 樱桃, 黑胡椒, 白胡椒, 回味时有木质香气稍辣。年轻, 可以开始做一些事情, 可以慢慢成长。酒的酸度也是非常重要的, 不然会非常闷。Meerlust酒庄在1756年在南非西南部建立, 气候和圣多拉菲酒庄(Château Lafite)非常相似, rubicon作为波爾多的品牌则始于1980年。在此之前人们并不相信波爾多的品牌能够在南非如此成功。


rubicon的名字来自意大利中部的一条河, 公元前49年, 罗马帝国的凯撒大帝 (Julius Caesar) 为扩张帝国版图, 做了一个重大决定, 跨过这条河。酿红酒的历史可以追溯到距今10,000年亚美尼亚,土耳其, 6,000年前在以色列, 黎巴嫩等地中海国家流行, 距今2,000多年在意大利技术提升了, 罗马帝国向现在的法国, 英国扩张的时候, 将它带来欧洲, 16世纪欧洲人发现南非, 阿根廷等殖民地, 也为当地带来酿酒技术, 后来红酒又出现在新世界, 包括美国, 新西兰, 澳洲等等。


1年可能种不出葡萄, 2年种出的等级还是不够好, 3年可能种出来了但并不适合酿酒, 4, 5年也许才会种出适合酿酒的葡萄。 5年在酿酒行业并不算很长的时间, 但这瓶酒象征了大决定, 它本身那么热烈, 精力充沛。


百鹤贺寿 A Hundred Cranes Celebrating Longevity SGD 68,868

这幅风水书法背景里面的红色圈圈是胭脂(Rouge), 象征松树 (Pinetree), 如果你去过中国安徽黄山, 一定会看到奇石松柏, 松树从不同的险峻地方长出来, 却都向上生长, 可以生长千百年。


松树, 象征顽强的生命力, 长寿。在黑暗中松树纹不见了, 看到的是龙鳞纹, 神龙见首不见尾, 虽然看不到龙, 可是龙的力量在后面支持你。百鹤贺寿是一个里程碑, 去年云大师生日有一幅有50只鹤的画贺寿。


在黑暗中能够看到笔画很有力量, 向外伸展然后又向上延伸, 很多只鹤生机勃勃展翅欲飞。就像馆里得有些客户想要退休, 但2年后回来重新开启一个行业, 这样的蜕变就像云大师在2011年引退, 专心于艺术, 创造了很多艺术奇迹, 2017年在ION举办第一次画展。这幅风水书法属于第5个系列的风水书法, 阴阳平衡, 还是旧的价钱。画中蓝色的部分是由香槟喷洒在画中的, 复制品不会得到相同的能量。


Catena Zapata Nicolás Catena Zapata 2016

来自阿根廷Mendoza的波爾多品牌, 是阿根廷的酿酒行业的先驱。特别在阿根廷的赤霞珠 - 馬爾貝克(Cabernet Sauvignon 60% - Malbec 30%), Malbec 在200年前用在波爾多酒, 但现在很少使用因为它太强烈了。从一开始就散发着来自南美洲的热情, 浓缩, 更多水果香气。白天的日照强烈, 让葡萄的糖份变低, 晚上温度降低让葡萄酸度变化得非常好, 所以酒的颜色深石榴红。闻起来像黑醋栗, 黑樱桃, 李子, 坚果和烘烤松木的味道。入口比较厚重, 整体的酸度平衡的很好, 匀称的力量感。 回味会有一点酸,味道非常有深度, 可以保存10年或更久, 保存期非常长, 著名的酒评人Robert Parker说这款酒非常像圣多拉菲Château Lafite。


Catena 家族300多年前从意大利来到阿根廷, 拥有的酒庄Bodega Catena Zapata, 只生产高级酒。Nicolás Catena Zapata是现任拥有者名字。


鹤骨松姿 Strength of Crane, Stance of Pine SGD 38,868

我们都知道鹤很强壮, 有风骨。所以有"骨气"一说, 这也是鹤的品格。鹤站在松树上的姿态, 意味着再难的局势, 你都能居上游。这幅书法特别之处在严肃的紫, 蓝, 绿色在背景中很激烈的碰撞, 就像一个非常有经验的, 成熟有智慧的人非常清楚自己所处的位置和目标。


TorbreckRunRig 2006

西拉(Shariz/Syrah)已是澳大利亚的标志酒款,无人能出其右!通常用老葡萄树结的上好的果子来酿造。南澳的巴羅莎山谷(Barossa Valley) 是著名的产酒区, 有温暖的地中海气候, 炎热干旱的夏季, 雨水少。位于那里的Torbreck 酒庄由David Powell建于1994年。用于酿制西拉的葡萄树來源80到125年的老葡萄树, 葡萄树可以追溯到1992年当他在Rockford工作, 开始清理发现一些地区的老葡萄树的时候。尽管用心的照顾葡萄树, 但是干式种植结果率非常低 (low yields), 优点是酿的酒层次丰富, 浓郁, 酒香与众不同。Daisuke San 选这瓶酒配画因为让他想起黄色水果, 芒果, 桃, 还有大地气息。 颜色是深宝石红, 闻起来有木质香气,显著的是大地的气息, 蘑菇, 松露, 土地的味道, 水果香在后面, 伴随着黑色水果, 巧克力味, 口感浓郁顺滑浓厚。 这款酒距今17年, 快要20年了, 世上存在的数量越来越少了!


黄鹤永胜-Yellow Crane of Everlasting Victory SGD 68,868

属于黄鹤永胜系列, 用浓厚的金边勾画出鹤, 鹤的颜色和形态不尽相同, 鹤在牡丹中休憩, 非常安静温暖的。 背景用绿, 浅蓝, 深蓝, 褐色, 在地上休息的鹤让人想到有时需要静下来才可以更好的与能量连接。当你有能力有眼界的时候, 以往的胜利只是你接下来人生的序篇。鹤身体也是青绿色, 像一个苹果, 成为别人眼中的苹果是非常美好的祝福。 风水馆有的客户在45岁时还能开启新的事业, 每天醒来都是崭新的一天, 觉得自己仍然是青苹果, 还有很多美好的事要做。


这幅画在黑暗中对比强烈, 鹤冠是红色太阳, 照耀着大地, 非常明亮和身体形成对比, 好像日和月。白天看不到的祈祷文在夜晚非常明显, 从天空倾泻而下, 夜晚很精彩, 不要小看一个安静的人, 也许他在他能感受的世界里得到很多祝福。



大辅先生的酒吧La Terre (La Terre by Daisuke Kawai)

他也是我们《廊外有画》的合作伙伴



来和我们一起欢庆胜利吧!

希望以后能再次邀请大辅先生过来举办多一个品酒会, 记得到时跟Cola预约81378024。
