The animated short film "New Brilliance from Broken Bronze" tells a bronze restoration story in Pixar's warm, realistic CG style. Intangible cultural heritage bronze caster Shen Yan and cultural relic restoration designer Lin Qiu use a damaged bronze phoenix lamp as the focal object, carrying it through the full process of blueprint deduction, wax mold making, melting and casting, polishing, and aging. The two uphold the restoration principle of "the object comes first, honesty between old and new," avoiding deliberate replication of the ancient artifact while balancing the object's practical structure and historical traces. In the end, the restored phoenix lamp is lit, and the old damaged piece is displayed alongside the newly cast lamp in the exhibition hall. The lamplight reflects two generations of craftsmen's reverence for ancient artifacts and the way of passing down traditional craftsmanship.
