"In my opinion, guqin is not only a musical instrument, but also a carrier of life style. The organist may not be the organist to be hacked, but the organist must be a good organist." Wang Xianhong told the Yangtse Evening Post/Purple Cow news reporter that the reason why the guqin can have the ancient and intoxicating sound, can be passed down through the ages, and its production process is very important. The detailed and complicated production process does not allow any corners to be cut. Chop qin pay attention to the trend and for, that is, because of the wood to be hacked, each wood has its own unique timbre, they will be based on the nature of each wood and its sound resonance characteristics to be hacked.

With strange, ancient, transparent, moist, quiet, round, even, clear, Fang these nine virtues, as the highest pursuit of tone. "You see, this is a new style of guqin that I created. The head of the piano is an ancient woman's bun, plum shaped, and the body curves are soft, like lotus water, so it is named lotus style." Wang Xianhong said.

Wang Xianhong believes that each instrument is unique and needs to be made through hundreds of traditional processes such as material selection, modeling, digging and tuning, grey tire, painting, grinding and winding. The qin is not only a test of skill but also patience and concentration. Each piano is the crystallization of ingenuity and wisdom, hard-won, must be hacked by the master countless times grinding and carefully fathom.
