Origin Story
话说唐朝时期,有个名叫李白的工匠,以其精湛的技艺闻名天下。一天,皇帝下令建造一座宏伟的宫殿,李白被钦点负责建造宫殿中最精密的部件——一个巨大的钟表。这个钟表由数千个细小的零件组成,需要极其精密的配合才能运转。李白夜以继日地工作,他认真地打磨每一个零件,仔细地检查每一个连接点。经过数月的辛勤劳动,这个巨大的钟表终于完工了。当他小心翼翼地安装好最后一个零件时,整个钟表严丝合缝,没有丝毫的空隙。他轻轻地拨动发条,钟表开始运转,指针滴答作响,声音清脆悦耳,准确无误地走时,令众人叹为观止。这座宫殿也因着这件精美的钟表而更加辉煌。
During the Tang Dynasty, there was a craftsman named Li Bai, known for his superb craftsmanship. One day, the emperor ordered the construction of a magnificent palace, and Li Bai was appointed to be in charge of constructing the most intricate part of the palace - a giant clock.

He gently wound the spring, the clock started to run, the hands ticked, the sound was crisp and pleasant, and the timekeeping was accurate and flawless, which amazed everyone. The palace became even more magnificent because of this exquisite clock.
