创建中国伊万斯（Evans）鸽舍

Creating the Chinese Evans Loft

多年来一直饲养、詹森、慕利门，并在一些大的公棚赛中取得了很好的成绩，但随着国内赛的运动已渐渐地发生了根本上质的变化，公棚赛将是未来中国信鸽运动发展的主流，赛鸽运动高额奖金叠创新高，居安思危、对此我早已有了超前的清醒认识，为了能更好地适应未来激烈的公棚比赛，我从2003年开始探寻国外更好的赛鸽名家和品系。

I bred Janssen, Meulemans birds for years and had achieved top results at some big Open Races. But with the essential changes of our National Race gradually, the Open Race will be the mainstream of the development of Chinese Birds Race. As the bonus of the Birds Race is higher and higher, and the competition will also be harder than before which I had already known clearly for a long time. In order to adapt to more and more drastic Open Race in future better, I began to explore some better foreign famous lofts and bloodlines from 2003.

2003年，女儿前往英国留学，在英国留学期间，曾多次到英国布菜克浦（Blackpool）参观一年一度的世界鸽展，了解认识了来自世界各地许多名家，并寄来大量的资料。2004年我们开始关注来自英国北部约克地区的非常著名的赛鸽育种家，马克、迪克、伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）父子，在年复一年的赛季中，M&D伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）的名字，始终出现在英国的信鸽杂志上，周复一周地为其他鸽迷培育出

冠军血统的种鸽，在联合会赛、混合赛，传统赛和国家赛中取得的成绩是不可思议的。在北美地区、加拿大、美国，使用伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统的鸽子，能够把它们的名子始终写在获奖名单上，就象过去詹森兄弟家族，凡龙家族在欧州大陆创造的奇迹一样，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统家族将会给北美地区的赛鸽运动注入新的活力，任何一个血统都未曾获得那么多的国家赛的骄人赛绩，凭借这几张无法超越的王牌，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统将稳步踏入北美地区顶级赛鸽家行列。 My daughter went to England for study in 2003 and in the period of her study, she visited the annual World Birds Exhibition several times at Blackpool, England where she met many famous breeder around the world, and then she sent lots of information to me. From 2004 we began to pay attention to the very famous race bird breeder from York district of north England, M&D Evans. Year after year throughout the racing seasons the name M & D. Evans appears in the U.K. pigeon magazines week after week for producing winning bloodlines for other fanciers. The printed reports in Federations, Combines, Classics and Nationals are being achieved at unbelievable rate. Mark &Dick Evans birds can always on the winner list when fanciers race these bloodlines at North America District, Canada and America. Just like the miracles created by the Janssen Bros Family and Van Loon Family at Europe Mainland, Mark & Dick Evans bloodlines will bring new energies to the Race Birds Sport of North America because any other bloodlines had never won so many National Prizes. Mark & Dick Evans bloodlines must can be on the list of the Top Racer of North America with these unsurpassable trump cards.

马克和迪克伊万斯血统鸽子到目前为止十年内已经获得了30个国家赛冠军。仅2006年，这一年就获得6次国家赛冠军，4次传统赛冠军和一次NPA公开赛冠军，他们自己的表现在英国赛鸽史上都是最好的，但是他们做为育种鸽培养者的能力，远远高于他们在比赛中取得的成绩，在英国的其它的任何鸽舍都不能声称取得同样的成就。 The Mark & Dick Evans bloodlines have now won from passed ten yeas to date 30x 1st Nationals. Only 2006 this one year they won 6x1st Nationals, 4x1st Classic and 1x1st NPA Open. Their race performance is the best in the history of England Birds Races, but their ability as the breeder is much better than their prize won in the races. There is no other loft in England could claim this same statement.

经过大量的资料研究，我了解到，马克、迪克、伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）的血统主要来自比利时的名家、盖比、凡得那比(Caby Vandenabeele)血统，他们在盖比、凡得那比(Caby Vandenabeele) 1985年——1995年最顶盛时间购入了54羽顶级幼鸽，他们又从荷兰名家、柯恩、闵得豪德Koen Minderhoud那里引进80羽幼鸽，同时每年不断地投入成千上万英镑，引进欧州名家的顶级赛鸽，这些鸽子大都含有盖比血统，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）经过严格的筛选，不断的参加比赛，并发现保持最佳获胜血统的最好办法，是在冠军鸽血统中近亲繁殖，但每年都要引进的血统来杂交，同时，他们不管任何育种试验或育种体系或者再好的基因，在血统顶端的黄金育种配对都是出自最终的试验鸽舍中，他们要求，基础种鸽要培育出正常的冠军，而且还能够与不同的配偶交配，他们不会仅仅因为其一次超常表现而将其放入育种鸽棚中，一次成绩没有意义，没有三次，他们不会重视它们，同时，最令我确信的是，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统的鸽，大部分比赛的司放地都是在法国放飞区、要飞跃英吉利海峡，同时英国的天气变化多端，很多比赛都在逆风中飞行，它们可以在70英里到550英里的比赛中获胜，另外无论比赛当天的天气情况是好是坏，他们都有能力表现的很好，
After a lot of study, I realized Mark& Dick Evans bloodlines mainly from Belgium famous Gaby Vandenabeele. In Gaby’s peak period of 1985-1995 they purchased 54 direct Gaby Vandenabeele pigeons and they also purchased another over 80 young birds from Holland famous Koen Minderhoud. At the same time, they continuously spent thousands upon thousands pounds to introduce into other Europe famous breeder’s top race birds which mostly are Gaby bloodlines. They worked extremely hard to select the best from these bloodlines and race them constantly and then they have found the only way to maintain the best winning lines is to inbreed only around their own winning lines but year after year they are
purchasing new stock of top quality to use as an out cross. Again please note any breeding experiment, breeding system or however good the gene pool is in any top bloodlines the golden breeding pairs are only selected with the final test, the basket. They require our stock pairs to breed winners on a regular basis; also they must breed to different mates. We will not retire pigeons to stock with just one outstanding performance, single results are almost meaningless. We don’t take anything seriously until we see it for a third time. At the same time, I am very sure that Mark & Dick Evans bloodlines fly start from France where need to fly through English Channel. The weather in England can changes in a minute and even many races are in the day with the wind on bird’s nose, they also can win prize from 70 – 550 miles. They have ability to perform great no matter the weather is good or bad.

在整个欧州，他们拥有的这个鸽子家族被誉为最为成功的，最具有耐力的鸽舍。 These bloodlines they owned is claimed the most successful and resistive loft all over the Europe. 马克、迪克伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统，正是我梦寐以求的。我们决定投入重金引进伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统。 Mark & Dick Evans bloodlines are just what I dreamt from, so we decide to purchase Mark & Dick Evans bloodlines with big money.

2005年，开始向伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）父子提出购买幼鸽，遗憾的是被告知，要等三年，如需订购他们的幼鸽，要等到2008年才能提供，并且还要先签订订单并交付订金才行。 We requested to purchase young birds from Mark & Dick Evans in 2005 but it’s a pity to be noticed we have to wait for three years to order their young birds because they only can provide birds till 2008 and we must sign an order and pay subscription firstly. 2006年初，女儿前往伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）家拜访，受到了热情招待，并签订了订单、交付了定金，这个订单幼鸽要等到2008年才能得到，三年的等待是对我意志的考验，就是等三年也值，认准的事情不能怀疑。 At the early 2006, my daughter visited Mark & Dick Evans at their home. She was warmly treated by them and then she signed an order and pay the subscription. I can get these young birds of this order at 2008 that is a test to my volition, but I will not doubt my decision even I have to wait for three years. 2006年7月，我前往英国参加女儿的毕业典礼，并专程拜访了伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）父子、期间，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）父子，给我一一拿出了他们的超级种鸽，如“嘉丽”、“影午者”、“艾森豪威尔”、“黄金盖比”等这些种鸽给我留下了深刻印象，体型中等，骨架尖硬，活力爆发，当我再次提出能否先卖给我2羽幼鸽时，被宛言谢绝，并告知，如果提前给了我，那么对那些需要等待3年的才能得到的鸽子的鸽迷是不公平的，希望我能理解，英国人的认真守信，使我真正的领略，拿着钱买不到一羽幼鸽，这在当今的比利的荷兰等一些名家棚中我想也不会遇到。 I went to England to take part in my daughter’s commencement at July, 2006 while I made a special trip to visit Mark & Dick Evans. They took out their super breeder one by one, like “Carrie”, “Shadow”, “Eisenhower”, “Golden Gaby” and so on, these breeders impressed me a lot. They had middling body, acuate and tough bones framework and they are full of energy. I was refused unobjectionably when I requested again to sell me two young birds firstly. And they hoped me can understand that if they firstly sell me birds, it’s unfair to the fanciers who need to wait for three years to get a bird. I was really appreciated the staid and faithful of English. It made me to realized that I can’t purchase one young birds with big money which was even rarely happened in most famous lofts at Belgium and Holland nowadays.

同时，他们告诉我年底10月份有一场他和盖比先生的专场拍卖会，这是他们从2004年开始商定准备的，每人60羽共计120羽，这次拍卖将提供他们最好的血统鸽子，而这在以前是从来没有在一个公开拍卖会上出现过的。同时解决一个问题，那就是伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）的幼鸽已被全部预定到了2008年，为了对所有预定幼鸽并且在等待的客户公平，所以才决定举办这次拍卖会。 They also told me they will have a special Auction with Mr. Gaby at October which was prepared by them from 2004 that totally there
were 120 birds, each contributed 60 birds. They would provide the best bloodlines birds in this auction together, which was never happened in one open auction before. At the same time this auction can solve a problem. Because all the young birds were ordered by 2008, in order to treat every waiting fancier fairly, so they decided to hold this auction.

伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）父子唯一的目的就是用这支队伍试图打破所有的世界纪录。向世界范围内鸽迷证明，这些鸽子可以比其它拍卖会上一次所售的鸽子，取得更多冠军。 The only purpose of Mark & Dick Evans is to break all the world record by using this bird team and prove to all the fancier around the world that these birds for sale at this auction can win more champions than any other auctions.

2006年10月21日，女儿和同学结伴提前到达伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）家，第二天一早就随伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）父子，前往英国中西部，提普顿体育学院的拍卖场，来自英国、美国、加拿大、日本的鸽友和委托人几百人早已在等候，事前，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）已告诉我们并推荐了一些最好的顶级幼鸽，我们已作了大量翻译和研究，整场拍卖会的128羽鸽子只用了2个多少时即全部拍完，我们共拍的8羽，分别是9号、18号、17号、21号、25号、45号、58号66号，这8羽是伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）提供的68羽中基本上都是最高价购买者，除了一羽2号拍卖的被一南非鸽迷拍走，令我遗憾。值得一提的是，整场拍卖会，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）的鸽子价格要高出盖比先生的鸽子价三分之一，包括盖比先生提供的，超级布利克塞姆（闪电号）直子女6羽，全场的最高价是伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）的2号拍鸽，就已经证明伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）的鸽子受追捧的程度，我们是唯一的中国人，并购买走8羽最高价格的拍主，其它的大部分被由美国鸽迷，加拿大鸽迷，南非鸽迷，和日本鸽迷买走。 My daughter went to Mark & Dick Evans’ home ahead of the schedule with her classmate at 21st,Oct 2006. They went up for middle west of the England together with Mark & Dick Evans, the Salesroom in Tipton Physical Education Institute where hundreds of fanciers and agents from England, America, Canada and Japan had waited for a long time. Mark & Dick Evans had told me something about their birds and recommend me some of the most outstanding young birds before this auction and I had translated and studied a lot about them already. There were totally 128 birds in this auction and it only took about 2 hours to finish the sale while we gained totally 8 birds that are No.9, No.18, No.17, No.21, No.25, No.45, No.58, and No.66 but it’s a pity that No.2 bird was purchased by an South Africa fancier. The prices of these 8 birds almost were the highest among all the 68 birds provided by Mark & Dick Evans. I must say that the price of these birds provided by Mark & Dick Evans were 1/3 higher than Mr. Gaby’s even than the 6 direct sons and daughters from De Bliksem provided by Mr. Gaby. The highest price bird in this auction was the No.2 birds provided by Mark & Dick Evans which can prove how much the Mark & Dick Evans birds were welcomed. We were the only Chinese buyer in this auction but purchased 8 almost highest price birds and most of other birds is purchased by American, Canada, South Africa and Japan fanciers.

10月30日，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）急电告诉我，有一客户三年前订购一批21羽幼鸽，因搬迁原因希望能推迟交付，英国人很认真。伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）拒绝，考虑到我已花费了巨资拍的8羽，并且还要费很大事运到中国，就给我一个首选机会是否要，我们当机决定全部买下，这21羽幼鸽，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）先生又慷慨赠送我女儿一羽，顶级种鸽，黄金盖比333直女。 Mark & Dick Evans suddenly gave me an urgent call at 30th,Oct to tell me that one customer who

ordered 21 birds three years ago hoped can postpone to receive these young birds because of the loft remove. But as you know, Mark & Dick Evans were very staid English person, so they refused this request. Considering I had spent lots of money to purchase 8 birds and it’s very difficult to ship these birds to China, they gave me a first chance to decide whether purchased these 21 young birds or not. We immediately decided to purchase them all, and the more better thing was Mark & Dick Evans also provided another 1 birds ungrudgingly, top breeder, direct daughter from Golden Gaby 333 to my daughter as a present. 11月底，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）先生亲自开车，到比利时，将这批30羽幼鸽，从比利时空运到中国。 At the end of December, Mark & Dick Evans drove themselves to Belgium and shipped these 30 young birds together to China by air. 同时，伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）寄来一个授权书，我们是中国第一个饲养伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统鸽子的人。 At the same time, Mark & Dick Evans mailed me a Testimonial to prove that we are the first fancier to breed Mark & Dick Evans bloodlines in China! 由于伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）血统是一个完整的品系，所以我们决定重新建立一个鸽舍，取名伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）鸽舍（EVANS译音）并申请了商标注册，现已被国家商标局受理。 Because Mark & Dick Evans bloodline is a complete system, so we decide to build a new loft named Evans Loft (伊万斯种鸽舍 in Chinese by transliteration) and have registered this brand name at Trade Office State Administration for Industry and Commerce, People’s Republic of China. 我们中国伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）鸽舍，有着英国伊万斯（Mark& Dick.Evans）父子的强大支持，将通过育种来提高质量，并将努力参加中国高端公棚的比赛，期待不远的将来取得好的成绩，并希望与有志的鸽友来分享胜利成果。 Our Chinese Evans Loft is greatly supported by the Mark & Dick Evans of England. We will try our best to improve the quality of birds by breeding and take part in the National Top Open Races. We look forward to achieving some outstanding results in near future and hope can share successes with other fanciers.
