#中華海峽珠寶交流協會 #領袖峰會

The professional academic seminar was honored to feature Dr. Daniel Nyfeler, Managing Director of the Gubelin Gem Lab, and Director Kelly Liu, General Manager of KELLY Gems, as the keynote speakers. Their insightful presentations sparked enthusiastic discussions among association chairs and industry leaders. By exploring innovative approaches to gemstone legacy and sustainability, the speakers provided collectors and dealers with constructive frameworks for systematic management, alongside rigorous standards for authentication and provenance tracking. The vibrant atmosphere carried over into the post-event banquet, where the visiting scholars were deeply moved by the hospitality of the major association chairpersons from Northern Taiwan. This cross-sector engagement vividly demonstrated the synergy between Taiwan’s jewelry industry and the academic community. Dr. Nyfeler highly commended the Chinese Straits Jewelry Exchange Association, describing it as a well-organized, vibrant, and professionally cohesive group.

The coordination and hosting of our international guests were facilitated by Director Riki Lo of Empire Intellectual Property Translation Agency. As a Chinese-Canadian who grew up in Vancouver, Director Lo has an extensive track record of providing professional translation, interpretation, and editorial services for Taiwan’s top-tier government agencies, including the Judicial Yuan, Executive Yuan, Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Tourism Administration, and the Taiwan Railway Corporation. Under the guidance of Chairman Lin Sung-Shan, Director Lo utilized his expertise in managing international symposia to bridge cultural gaps and engage in a high-level dialogue with Dr. Nyfeler.

Their exchange covered a remarkably diverse range of topics:
1. Cross-Cultural Analysis: An exploration of regional linguistic nuances in Switzerland and Canada, providing our guests with an objective North American perspective on Taiwan’s historical evolution.
2. Industry Insights: Addressing Dr. Nyfeler’s inquiries regarding the practicalities of Taiwan’s jewelry market and trading environment.
3. E-commerce Operations: Using "Empire Jewelry" as a case study to share operational data, including conversion rates, return policies in Taiwan, trending items, and transaction benchmarks.
4. Cultural Observations: A fascinating discussion on how Chinese-Canadians and Europeans perceive Taiwan’s traditional Feng Shui and metaphysical culture.
5. Life Journeys: A collaborative learning session centered on Director Kelly Liu’s experiences, navigating high-pressure international environments with innovation and resilience while securing pivotal business deals.

During these informal yet profound discussions on the definition of a gemologist, focusing on heritage versus innovation, the scholars gained a deeper appreciation for the multifaceted roles of gemologists and collectors across different cultures.

We would like to express our profound gratitude to Chairman Lin Sung-Shan for his lifelong dedication to nurturing Taiwan’s jewelry industry, as well as to the entire team for orchestrating such a warm and professional academic gathering. Our thanks also go to Dr. Nyfeler and Director Kelly Liu for their invaluable insights. This event allowed our international guests to experience firsthand the vital role our Association plays in connecting academia with industry, showcasing the dynamic vitality of Taiwan’s jewelry sector to the world.

本次專業學術研討會邀請到古柏林鑑定所（Gubelin Gem Lab）總經理 Dr. Daniel Nyfeler 與 KELLY Gems 總經理 Kelly Liu 擔綱主講。兩位專家的演講內容精闢，引發與會各界理事長及業界先進的熱烈迴響。透過深入的探詢與意見交換，兩位專家為買賣家與收藏家指引了寶石永續傳承的方向，並針對大自然珍寶提出了更具建設性的系統化管理辦法，以及嚴謹的鑑定與溯源流程。

會後晚宴延續了熱絡的氛圍，學者們深受台灣北部各大主流協會理事長的熱情所感染，現場跨界互動頻繁，充分展現台灣珠寶界與學術界共融發展的活力。奈菲勒博士對此深表讚許，認為「中華海峽珠寶交流協會」是一個組織完整、充滿活力且具專業向心力的團體（a well-organized, vibrant, and professionally cohesive group）。

本次接待工作由華裔加拿大籍、帝國翻譯商標事務所羅彦喆所長協助。羅所長長期為司法院、行政院、法務部、教育部、外交部、行政院農業委員會（現稱農業部）、台鐵局及觀光署（前觀光局）等政府機關提供專業口筆譯、校閱、紀錄片潤稿、訂票系統翻譯潤稿等服務。此次，羅所長奉林嵩山理事長指示，不僅運用辦理大型國際研討會的實務經驗協助協會，更發揮其跨領域的國際文化視野，與丹尼爾·奈菲勒博士展開深度對話。

雙方的交流範疇極為廣泛且深刻，包括：
1. 跨文化解析： 探討瑞士與加拿大各語言區的區域特色，並以北美視角向外賓解析台灣的歷史演進。
2. 產業實務： 針對奈菲勒博士關注的台灣珠寶市場及買賣實務進行深度回覆。
3. 電商營運： 以「帝國珠寶 Empire Jewelry」為例，分享網路事業營運數據，涵蓋成交率、退換貨政策、熱門品項及市場成交行情等實務經驗。
4. 文化觀察： 交流華裔加拿大人與歐洲人對台灣「風水」與「命理」文化的獨特見解。
5. 生命歷程： 共同聆聽並學習 Kelly 總經理如何在異國高壓、高風險環境中勇於創新、自我保護，並完成各項關鍵交易的人生歷練。

在探究「寶石學家的定義、傳承與創新」等會後交流中，學者們進一步體悟到各領域對「寶石學家」與「收藏家」的不同詮釋。

特別感謝林嵩山理事長長期為台灣珠寶界的培育、耕耘與貢獻，以及全體工作同仁的協助，共同成就了這場讓國際友邦感受到團結與溫暖的學術盛會。感謝奈菲勒博士與 Kelly 總經理帶來寶貴的知識分享，讓外賓能從實際體驗中，深刻領會中華海峽珠寶交流協會連結學界與業界的關鍵作用，進而向世界呈現台灣珠寶產業多元且豐富的生命力。

Within the halls of the National Palace Museum, the scholars and directors from Switzerland and Sri Lanka, along with the Taiwanese-Canadian translation agency director, discovered that the most precious treasures are not merely the artifacts displayed upon the gallery walls but rather the Taiwanese delicacies and sumptuous honey cakes fully gilded in 24K gold leaf shared together at the table.

在故宮博物院的大廳裡，對於來自瑞士與斯里蘭卡的學者和所長，以及華裔加拿大籍的翻譯事務所所長而言，他們發現最珍貴的寶藏不僅僅是那些展廳牆上供人觀賞的文物，而更是餐桌上共同分享的台灣美食，以及那整面覆蓋著 24K 純金箔的奢華蜂蜜蛋糕。

The National Palace Museum: A Journey Through Chinese History

The National Palace Museum in Taipei stands as a monumental treasure house of Chinese history and art. It hosts a permanent collection of nearly 700,000 artifacts, spanning over 8,000 years from the Neolithic age to the modern era. As most of these treasures were originally part of the Chinese imperial collection, the museum offers an unparalleled look into the evolution of Chinese civilization.
With the recent arrival of distinguished guests from Switzerland and other foreign nations, the museum serves as an essential window for international visitors to deepen their understanding of Chinese history. By exploring iconic masterpieces such as the Jadeite Cabbage, the Meat-shaped Stone, and ancient bronzes, guests can appreciate the intricate craftsmanship and the profound cultural heritage of the Chinese-speaking world. We hope this cultural exchange fosters a deeper connection and mutual appreciation through these timeless historical treasures.

國立故宮博物院：華人歷史的探索之旅
台北的國立故宮博物院是中華歷史與藝術的宏偉寶庫。館內擁有近 70 萬件永久收藏品，時間跨度超過 8,000 年，從新石器時代橫跨至現代。由於這些珍寶大多原屬歷代皇室收藏，故宮為世人提供了深入了解中華文明演進的絕佳機會。

隨著此次瑞士及外國貴賓蒞臨台灣，故宮博物院成為了國際友人加深對華人歷史了解的重要窗口。透過觀賞如「翠玉白菜」、「肉形石」及古代青銅器等著名傳世之寶，貴賓們能從中體會華人工藝的細膩以及深厚的文化底蘊。我們期許透過這次文化交流，能藉由這些跨越時空的歷史珍藏，促進彼此間的連結與相互賞析。
