Day 5

Today is the day where i can finally visit the company which have been waiting for and that is the Pearl River Piano Factory珠江钢琴公司.


Having played the piano for many years, i do not know exactly how it was produced. Finally, i could see how everything was made and assembly together.

Making the parts
assemble everything together(containing 8000 over ornaments)Lastly, tuning it
one of the final product

They not only produce Piano but also other instruments like guitar and violin. There are 4000 production staffs in the production line and they are all trained to appreciate music and also understand them. They also hire professional listener to hear if their piano is in good quality. Their biggest foreign buyers are Germany and America. They have attracted so many foreign buyers by gaining confident in them and also uses performance and other events to promote their piano.


Maybe they should try to get into Singapore market one day .

We then went to Chen Jia Si Park for some sightsee-ing.





We then took another long bus ride to Guangdong Polytechnic Normal University 广东技术师范学to listen to a 2 long soild hours of lecture of devleopment of Guangdong province.

the slides were all packed with chinese words which bores all of us

I think that was the only talk that everyone wasn't paying attention to. Everyone didnt bother to take notes as he was going very fast and there were too many words for us to copy.

Afer we finally ended our boring lecture everyone went back to the bus. That was when Geroge realise he has left his bag in the class, however, by the time he went back the class was locked already so he couldnt retrieve it. After coordination from the school, lecturer and our tour guide, he manage to get his bag back at night. What a relief! if not all his belongings would not be able to retrieve back.

We were spared from the 8 dishes and 1 soup dinner that night, so together with baoyi, rongxing and elizabeth we went to have pizza hut for dinner!
