After the Republic of China, in the fierce competition in the goods, many places in Beijing appeared "Wang Mazi", "Wang Ma Zi", "Pharaoh pockelon", "true king pock" and so on signs, trying to fake real way for customers, but all Not able to foothold. Xuanwu Menzao mouth this hanging "three generations of Wang Mazi" signs of the old brand has always been in the leading quality. The early 50s, the East Gate to the Temple of Heaven area is still more than 20 handicrafts knife cut workshop to continue to Wang Zizi knife cut shop processing, the purchase is still in accordance with past standards for acceptance.

Since ancient times there are "South Zhang Xiaoquan, in Cao Zhengxing, north of Wang Mazi" by legend. Is the domestic tool industry three champion.

Experts from the National Intangible Cultural Heritage Committee, the China Arts and Crafts Association and the Beijing Arts and Crafts Association experts and scholars to discuss and agree to the project declaration.

Analysis of the industry, Beijing Wang Mazi scissors bankruptcy non-day cold, as early as a few years ago to reveal the tip of the iceberg, summed up for several reasons:

Product innovation awareness Wang Ma Zi lack of brand promotion and protection awareness, do not pay attention to branding and publicity, and even rely on word of mouth to spread the visibility, limited scope. Last year, even forgot to apply for a well-known trademark in Beijing, really big joke. An economist said that when he was young, "Wang Mazi" scissors is that look, now or that way, no big change. And some new brands, especially foreign brands are a lot of style, very fine. In contrast, Wang Mazi scissors seem too rustic, unbeaten strange it Following the planned economy management model Wang Mazi scissors factory leadership lack of market awareness, "sit shop business, and other customers come home," the boss seriously thought, resulting in production and market out of touch. In the tide of market economy, enterprise management policy, sales decision-making and talent are far behind the requirements of the times. Especially the government intervention in the enterprise too much, the color of the planned economy is more intense, to develop a dependence on the government's lazy thinking. "Wang Mazi" brand did not fall, Wang Mazi's scissors are still in production, and sales are also good, Wang Mazi scissors factory in charge of the manufacturers is Beijing oak Chang Wang Asako Industry and Trade Co., Ltd., the company office director Guo said: Really has been bankrupt, and Wang Mazi trademark now go to the oak Chang Wang Asako Industry and Trade Co., Ltd..

Now Wang Mazi scissors changed the door, the new factory called Beijing Wan Shun No. scissors limited liability company, two years ago by Wang Mazi scissors factory staff raised 500,000 yuan set up, the original shareholders of 7 people. And Wang Mazi scissors factory, the new company under the Beijing oak Changwang Asako Industry and Trade Co., Ltd., but it operates independently in the shareholding model, with independent legal personality, from the oak Changwang Ma Zi Industry and Trade Co., in production. At present, the market of Wang Mazi knife scissors products, Wan Shun production Wang Mazi knife cut to about 70%, and the remaining 30% from Beijing oak Changwang Ma Zi Industry and Trade Co., Ltd. Shandong Branch and the original Wang Zi Zi scissors Factory inventory. Beijing oak Changwang Asako Industry and Trade Co., Ltd., chairman and general manager of the white tin dry told reporters that the current Wan Shun production of more than 200 varieties of products, beyond the king rapier scissors plant varieties nearly doubled, the quality of the grade is also exceeded The old factory production of products, last year's annual output value has reached 1.2 million yuan, enterprises have been on track, plans to achieve twice the product variety this year, the annual output value tripled.

According to the relevant audit data, as of May 31, 2002, Beijing Wang Mazi scissors factory total assets of 12836689.71 yuan, total liabilities of 27799845.90 yuan, the owner of the equity -14963156.19 yuan, asset-liability ratio of 216.6%. Wang Mazi stores in Beijing, a number of enterprises to Panjiayuan shops operating more varieties of warm hospitality to facilitate the inheritance of the concept of Wang Mazi now recognized by the masses, so that Wang Mazi knife cut more efforts.

In the late 1980s, "Wang Mazi" paid 200 million yuan a year, but into the 90's, under the conditions of market economy, "Wang Mazi" back a heavy burden on history, sales continue to decline, into an embarrassing situation. In the meantime, the relevant government departments and Wang Mazi scissors factory has done all its own efforts, in 1995, Wang Mazi scissors factory and Beijing cultural and educational equipment factory more than 10 unrelated factories to set up Wang Mazi Industry and Trade Group, re-registered "Wang Mazi" trademark. But the reorganization did not save the old business, then that loss of more than 100 million, then even more losses year after year. 1999 in the Beijing municipal government arrangements, Wang Mazi Industry and Trade Group in the Wang Mazi scissors factory was classified as Beijing Changping District subordinate units, and named the Beijing Dongchang Wang Mazu Industry and Trade Co., Ltd.

Wang Mazi scissors surface black and shiny, sharp knife sharp, was the masses as "black tiger". This kind of scissors is characterized by: the shaft is strong, the cutting edge is dexterous, the slot is easy to grind, does not fall apart, the blade is thin and sharp, the head length is wide, relaxed and durable.
