寻找章丘铁锅

The Hunt for the Iron Pots of Zhangqiu

央视纪录片《舌尖上的中国第三季》（以下简称《舌尖3》）播出才几十分钟，臻三环天猫旗舰店库存的2000多口铁锅被抢购一空．几天内数十万订单纷至沓来。臻三环属于济南三环厨具公司，随后，公司的工厂大门外突然变得热闹起来，有人甚至不惜翻墙进厂买锅，更多的人成群守候在大门口。

Just less than a hour after season three of CCTV's documentary series A Bite of China aired, every last one of the over 2,000 iron cooking pots up for sale on Zhensanhuan's Tmall flagship store was sold out. Within a few days, orders numbering upwards of a few hundred thousand came pouring in. The front gate of the Zhensanhuan factory became a popular gathering spot, with some people even hopping the fence to buy pots.A worried Zhensanhuan was forced to release an urgent statement that "pots will not be sold from the factory" and if this happens again, the police will be called. After the explosion in popularity of Zhangqiu iron pots, some people left the factory to work for themselves and others began imitating the brand. Unable to bear the sudden upstart, some blacksmiths have gone into hiding.
