Now we come to the kite drawing hall, which still maintains the traditional drawing process 600 years ago. Kite painting, first draw a line draft of the pattern, paste it on and then color it according to the composition. According to the traditional drawing requirements, the staff here have to go through a year of basic training before they can get the drawing qualification. Kite drawing should leave no bottom line, the lines are smooth, thin and even, the light and heavy are clear, simple and orderly, the color blocks are bright, the touch-up is natural, the layers are distinct, and the visual effect is vivid, which embodies the characteristics of elegance, exaggeration, enthusiasm, neatness and cleanliness. The fabric of the kite is silk, which is not afraid of water, deformation and distortion. The picture drawn in this way not only reflects the gorgeous and good painting art effect, but also shows the gorgeous heroic spirit under the blue sky and white clouds, showing more gorgeous and magnificent artistic charm.

Walking out of this courtyard, the high platform we saw was a kite flying field covering an area of 5,000 square meters. Every kite must pass the test flight acceptance before leaving the factory, and the quality is strictly controlled to ensure that every kite is a fine product. Yangjiabu Kite was awarded as a famous trademark product in Shandong Province. There are kite flying performances all year round. Especially because kites with bow eagles are shaped like real eagles and sometimes attract eagles to dance, which is a wonder. As the saying goes, "the bow eagle is more charming in the air and the eagle dance is magical." Attract tourists to fly to the first wonder of the world. " ?

Now we come to the kite making hall. To make a complete kite, you need to go through 22 procedures, 6 1 channel. Kites made by binding are well-known at home and abroad for their rigorous binding, pasting and painting techniques, novel design and high flight stability. There are eight main processes:

1. Material selection: perennial Phyllostachys pubescens is selected, with uniform slub length, strong toughness, no mildew and no moth; The symmetrical part must take the same part of Phyllostachys pubescens and be processed synchronously.

2. Blanking: cut the bamboo according to the design requirements, scrape off the brittle skin on the bamboo surface, remove the scar, split and scrape the blank, and cross-form it together. ?

Third, modeling: including material selection, baking and bending modeling. According to the specification requirements, mix bamboo materials, bake and bend moderately with fire, accurately shape, scrape and polish; Symmetrical parts should be chopped with equal weight; The insertion part is moderately elastic, and the joint part should be fine and beautiful; Accessories should conform to the specifications, firm and smooth. ?

Fourth, binding: in strict accordance with the drawings, the size of bamboo materials should be properly matched, the skeleton should be smooth, the structure should be scientific, light and wind-resistant; Select a thin and strong binding wire, winding it flat and smooth, so that it fully meets the requirements. Binding tools include pliers, knives, files, saws, scissors, tweezers, rulers and baking lamps. ?

Eight, test flight: the kite flies to a height of more than 3 meters, does not shake its head or roll down within one minute, and flies to an adaptive height within 2-5 winds, which can successfully lift off. The above is about kite making. Try it yourself when you go back, and you will get unexpected results.

The stone carving on our left is Sanyang Kaitai, and its image is taken from Yangjiabu New Year pictures. "Sheep" and "Yang" are homophonic. The Book of Changes, an ancient traditional cultural book in China, takes the first month as the Thai hexagram, which was thought by the ancients to be born when the yin gradually faded away from the yang. The winter solstice in November of the lunar calendar has the shortest day, and the days are getting longer and longer. Therefore, people think that winter solstice is a "one-yang destiny", December is a "two-yang destiny" and the first month is a "three-yang destiny". It means that winter goes and spring comes, yin disappears and yang grows, and it is auspicious and wishful. It is often used for greeting at the beginning of the new year.

The quadrangle in front is Yangjiabu Woodblock New Year Pictures Museum with three exhibition halls. The first exhibition hall displays ancient New Year pictures in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The second exhibition hall displays traditional New Year pictures; Modern New Year pictures are displayed in the third exhibition hall. Yangjiabu New Year pictures began in the early Ming Dynasty. 1369, ancestors surnamed Yang moved from Zitong County, Sichuan Province. The county seat is located at the southern end of Shu Road, and it has block printing skills. After settling down, he gave full play to his painting skills and created a splendid Yangjiabu woodblock New Year picture culture according to Shandong folk customs. According to the local ideological requirements, customs and beliefs, beautiful allusions and legends, it is very popular among tourists with its simple and elegant and humorous style, which means auspiciousness and peace. Yangjiabu New Year pictures have three characteristics: first, they are full of local flavor; Second, the color contrast is strong; Third, artistic exaggeration. ?

Now we come to the first exhibition hall, where the Yangjiabu New Year pictures of Ming and Qing Dynasties collected by Mr. Ma Zhiqiang are mainly displayed. This new year picture is a contrast between the god of wealth and wealth. At the end of Shang Dynasty, Yin had no way to listen to da ji's slanderers and died because he was honest, kind, impartial and careless after his death, which assured him that he was blocked. There are two immortals in the middle. The following two people, one with a gold ingot, sent wealth to the god of wealth, and this is the wealth predator, taking back the undeserved wealth. The ancients paid attention to fate, and there was a fixed number for how much money a person had to bear in his life, so these two gods of increasing wealth and robbing money came into being. This painting shows Jiang Taigong fishing with a straight hook in Weishui. Hunting in the suburbs of Zhou Wenwang, divination, is a beast, not a dragon, not a thorn, not a bear, which deserves the emperor's attention. In Weishui, I happened to meet Taigong, and Wang Bole knew that Ma hired Taigong as a photograph and personally used the emperor to drive him out of 808 steps. Jiang Taigong Bao Zhou was celebrated in 808, which became a beautiful talk. ?

This is the second exhibition hall showing Yangjiabu traditional New Year pictures. Yangjiabu New Year pictures can be roughly divided into six categories:

The first category is idols. These two pictures are the goddess Wumen, the tea god, posted on the street gate. There is a beautiful legend here. According to legend, at the end of Shang Dynasty and the beginning of Zhou Dynasty, there were two brothers, Shen Tu and Lei Yu. They are honest and powerful. They planted peach trees on Dushuo Mountain, which are sweet, big and fragrant. If you eat them, you will not only live longer, but also become immortal. Fierce tigers look after peaches for them. There is a wild king in Bison Ridge, who does many evils and harms the people. One day, the wild king sent people to Dushuo Mountain to ask for peaches, and the two brothers drove them away. The wild king was very angry. On a stormy night, he went to steal peaches with robbers dressed as evil spirits. Shen Tu broke the peach branches and beat them at the front, while Lei Yu tied them with reeds at the back. Soon all the evil spirits were tied up and fed to the tiger. Later, he became a fairy, was named as a general, and commanded all ghosts. Because it is the owner of peach trees, peach trees ward off evil spirits. Later, it was plastered on the gate by the world to deter ghosts and keep the family safe. This picture of Qin Qiongjing's Virtue is Wu Shen. According to legend, Emperor Taizong couldn't sleep at night because he hated dragons and ghosts, and two generals volunteered to serve Emperor Taizong at night, so the ghosts dared not go near Emperor Taizong and lived in peace. In order to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits, Emperor Taizong ordered painters to paste their shadow paintings on the door of the palace, and the people followed suit and became eternal door gods. This is the kitchen king, also known as the kitchen king, kitchen god, kitchen god. Guo said he was the head of the household. His duty is to know the good and evil in the world, and report to the heaven on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month every year, so as to provide a basis for the Jade Emperor to reward the good and punish the evil. In order to make the kitchen god say more good things, every household in the twelfth lunar month sacrificed food and wine to the kitchen god, so that he could eat and drink well and only say good things. Because honeydew melon is sweet and sticky, it has become an indispensable sacrifice for the stove, which can not only make the mouth of the kitchen god sweet, but also stick to the mouth of the kitchen god to prevent him from speaking ill and incur the sin of God. At that time, there was a folk saying: Go on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month and come on the 15th of the first month (Kitchen God). A honeydew melon is fragrant with three pillars, and the kitchen god will go back to the palace to protect well-being. ""Heaven speaks well, and descent is auspicious. "The main sacrifice of the kitchen stove must be parents. When worshipping God, he knelt behind a boy with a rooster in his hand. After the parents kowtowed, they prayed to the Kitchen God: Today is the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, and Grandpa Kitchen God will go to the Western Heaven, and the Chinese New Year will be celebrated in seven days. God always speaks well and comes back with only long sticks (boys) and no flowers (girls). Indoctrinate the chef with the idea of giving good news but not worrying, and giving preference to boys. After that, he grabbed the cock's neck with one hand, pushed it into the haystack three times, and poured cold water on it with the other hand. If the chicken is frightened, it is said that the kitchen king received it and provided dinner for the whole family. This picture is a big stove, divided into three layers, the upper layer is the god of wealth, the middle layer is the kitchen god and his grandmother, and the lower layer is the house god.

The second category is fairy tales. This picture is a cash cow and cornucopia given by the God of Wealth to Jishan's family. There is inexhaustible money on the tree, and a baby boy on the tree opens a profitable banner, which is a kind of yearning for people. These are Jinshan Temple, Broken Bridge, Top Scholar's Pagoda, Xu Xian Lake Tour, Top Ten Busy People and Three Great Men, all of which have beautiful legends.

The third category is beauty. Beauty bars are deeply loved by daughters-in-law and ladies because of their bright colors, and they are posted on the doors. These pictures, such as Happy New Year, deer and crane in the same spring, and Five Blessingg coming today, all reflect people's desire for good luck. ?

Boys' class is the fourth category of Yangjiabu New Year pictures. "Liu Kaibaizi" and "Kirin Songzi" are posted on the door of the newlyweds, which means that having children earlier means having more children is more blessed. Three good news, lion cub entering the door and Liu Haijin toad are all New Year pictures posted on the mother-in-law's door. "Over a Year" and "Full of Goldfish" are the representative works of Yangjiabu New Year pictures, which use exaggerated methods to increase the artistic effect. The doll's head is bigger than her body, and the fish is bigger than the doll. The use of exaggeration, implication, homophonic, symbol and other techniques shows people's good wishes and aspirations. ?

The fifth category is opera characters. Li Kui jy grabs fish, empty city strategy, Weishui River, chain strategy, etc. , are constantly created according to historical stories and operas, with profound implications.

The last category is flowers. Four screens in spring, summer, autumn and winter are attached to the kang. In the picture, peony in spring symbolizes wealth, lotus in summer symbolizes purity, chrysanthemum in autumn symbolizes temperament, and plum in winter symbolizes quality. The exquisite carving and exquisite craftsmanship make today's craft painters full of praise.

This is a map of eighteen provinces in the early Qing Dynasty, and it is the earliest woodcut commercial map in China. The carving of maps is rich in connotation. In addition to the omen of mountains and rivers, there is also the route distance from Beijing to the capitals of 18 provinces and surrounding major countries in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, the distance was measured by the speed of a horse, calculated by days, and the direction was located by a compass. This map is the treasure of Yangjiabu.

This is the third exhibition room, which mainly displays some New Year pictures. After the founding of New China, governments at all levels attached great importance to the promotion and development of Yangjiabu New Year pictures. Artists kept pace with the times and created many excellent works. The first thing we see is the Lunar New Year. The old picture of this kind of New Year pictures is Kitchen God, and the new picture is a scene of family happiness, prosperity of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery, and happiness of life. This is an auspicious lantern created by the famous calligrapher Zhu Xueda. It is mainly hung on the zhaobi of the gate during the Spring Festival. This new year's picture has the word Dafu, dove of peace and fat doll, which means "peace and happiness", profound artistic conception and unique design. What we see in front of us is that one hundred children are blessed. Now we advocate family planning and create a picture of "one child is the best". In the picture, there is a little girl with a cracked peach beside her. There is a core in the peach, which is homophonic with children. Explain that men and women are the same, and only one child is the best theme. This painting "Contributing to the Four Modernizations" reflects the new changes and new scenes in the socialist countryside since the reform and opening up.

This exhibition room shows some inscriptions by leaders and celebrities at all levels after visiting Yangjiabu Grand View Garden. State Councilor Gu Mu wrote the inscription "Beautiful life, beautiful mind, beautiful skills and simple beauty"; Qian Weichang, Vice Chairman of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, wrote an inscription "Carry forward the national tradition and make art brilliant"; Yang Chengwu, Vice Chairman of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, wrote the inscription "Flower of Art"; Mr. He Jingzhi, a famous poet and Minister of Culture, was infected by this simple folk custom when he came to Yangjiabu in 1986. He improvised a poem and wrote a quatrain of "Millennium Tong Meng New Year Pictures, Wan Li Flying Kites", praising Yangjiabu's colorful folk art. ?

This is an ancient tree of the Ming Dynasty, with a history of more than 600 years. You can see that the hole in it is getting bigger and bigger, but it is inexhaustible, and old branches and new buds grow sturdily year after year. With tenacious vitality, it shows people its majestic posture and the ancient folk culture of Yangjiabu. In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, the first generation of Shandong suffered from heavy rains and floods, crop failure and many trees were flooded. There are only nine ancient locust trees in the village, which are deeply rooted and full of vitality. There will be another drought in the coming year, and most trees will be killed and injured. Only nine ancient Sophora japonica trees have achieved fruitful results, which has made Yangjiabu's New Year pictures industry. In order to thank the locust tree for its help, the owners of various painting shops have burned paper incense for the locust tree. Everything in the family comes to ask for the blessing of Sophora japonica, and in the hearts of Yangjiabu people, the ancient Sophora japonica is regarded as the locust god, which has continued to this day. If you have any wishes, you can tell Chu Huaiwang here, which will guarantee your good luck and happiness. Yang has planted Sophora japonica for generations, which has greatly promoted the development of painting. Here, I want to ask you a question. What role does Sophora japonica play in Yangjiabu's painting circle? You can guess, let's leave a suspense for the time being. ?

You can see the straw adobe house under the tree of Wang Huai, which is the most intact workshop of Ming Dynasty in Yangjiabu. It has been listed as a national key cultural relic protection, which is now rare. This is a folk custom exhibition hall, which displays ancient production and living utensils and shows the historical vicissitudes of folk culture.

Next, we walked into the exhibition hall of Chinese New Year pictures, which displayed the New Year pictures of six producing areas in China. ?

This is the Taohuawu New Year Picture in Suzhou, which is called the Citizen New Year Picture. This harmonious picture refers to Maitreya Buddha, which has been visualized. Zhong kui catches ghosts. According to legend, Li Longji, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, returned to the palace from the Lishan tinker and became seriously ill. One night, he dreamed that a kid with a cow nose stole Yang Guifei's purple sachet and the jade emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Li Longji shouted at him. At this moment, suddenly appeared a GREAT GHOST, wearing a blue robe, caught the little devil, gouged out his eyes with his fingers, and ate the little devil in half. Don asked his name. His name was Zhong Nanshan Jinshi Zhong Kui. Because of its ugly appearance, it is not allowed to hit the temple and die. After his death, he became a ghost king and vowed to rid the world of evil spirits. Ming Chengzu woke up after a long illness, so the famous painter Wu Daozi drew a picture of Zhong Kui catching ghosts according to his dream, which was handed down to later generations. This is the origin of Zhong Kui catching ghosts.

This is a New Year picture of Yangliuqing in Tianjin. The combination of color matching and hand painting not only maintains the artistic characteristics of woodblock New Year pictures, but also highlights the colorful style of hand-painted pictures. They entered the three palaces and six courtyards of the Forbidden City and were loved by concubines in the harem, so they were called palace New Year pictures.

This is the Mianzhu New Year Picture in Sichuan. Mianzhu New Year pictures emphasize washing, fluency, flexibility and strong sense of rhythm. This is the homonym of "Liuhe Tongchun". The east, west, south, north, sky and land are Liuhe, which means that spring is everywhere. This is a door god, which means the same as Yangjiabu New Year pictures. This picture is the "melon seed champion", and the picture is the champion of a beautiful man dressed in official clothes. This is the only female goddess "Mu" in Mianzhu New Year Pictures and the heroine of Sichuan Opera. ?

This is a New Year picture of Zhuxian Town, Henan Province. Its production adopts the combination of woodcut and engraving, and the watermark is color. The themes and contents are mostly historical dramas, romance novels, myths and legends. This one is a fairy boy, a man and a woman are Guanyin's assistants, a woman is a dragon girl, and a man is a rich boy. According to legend, an old man in Fucheng has 500 sons, and Shancai is one of them. As soon as he was born, all kinds of treasures suddenly poured out of his family, so he let his husband look at his face and named him Shancai. However, good karma is born without loving money, and vows to become a Buddha. He went to Manjusri for advice on Buddhism, and Manjusri Bodhisattva told him that you went to the south to find Gongdeyun, and Gongdeyun said that you went to Haimen to find a good monk. This kind of blessing * * * worshiped fifty-three famous teachers, and with a sincere heart, it finally touched the Bodhisattva and realized her wish to become a Buddha. In order to test his sincerity to the Buddha, Guanyin became a boatman and set off a big storm to persuade him to go back, but he was not afraid at all, and the Buddha was firm and became Guanyin's assistant. ?

This is the Wuqiang New Year picture of Hebei. Wuqiang's New Year pictures are mainly myths, with the saying of "seven distractions in ten-year paintings", such as door gods, wealth gods, kitchen gods, Guanyin, heaven and earth gods and so on. Wuqiang New Year pictures have their own unique characteristics, such as exaggerated modeling, full composition, bold, bright and bright.

This is a New Year picture of Taiwan Province Province, which is rare in Chinese mainland. Its theme is auspiciousness, peace and abundant financial resources. The theme of this painting "Happiness in Heaven" is blessing, luck, prayer and celebration. This "Family Peace" takes apes as the object of expression, which means that the good wish of family peace can be traced back to the wild times until forever. With the development of the times, the printing technology of New Year pictures in Taiwan Province Province is constantly innovating, and new forms such as electronic plate-making New Year pictures, screen New Year pictures and offset New Year pictures are constantly emerging. ?

The following scenic spots are Yangjiabu New Year pictures carving workshop and New Year pictures making workshop.

This is a New Year painting carving workshop. Yangjiabu New Year pictures are overprinted, with several editions and colors. Edition is the life of painting, so engraving is a process with the highest technical requirements in the process of making New Year pictures, and it can't be done well without a few years of basic skills. Master Yan has been engaged in carving for more than thirty years. He is skilled and easy to operate. The woodcut production here still follows the production process of 600 years ago. You can see the production skills 600 years ago. There are three steps in carving. First, material selection. The previous plates were all Tang pear wood, which was delicate, hard, not perishable and not easily deformed. The older the tree, the better the material. There are not many such trees now, but pear trees can achieve the same effect. Second, the rotten draft, also known as the draft, is used as the bottom sample of the drawing board and pasted on the prepared board. The third type is engraving, which is divided into line edition and color edition, that is, there are several editions of several colors. Carving tools include carving knives, vertical knives, digging knives, punching knives, painting knives, as well as saws, planers, shovels and brushes. The tools used are all made by Yangjiabu artists according to the requirements of New Year pictures. The basic methods of carving are reverse method and happy method. After engraving the line plate, print several line manuscripts, separate the color plate according to the drawing, and then engrave the color plate. ?

This is the workshop for making New Year pictures. Engraving color printing is a traditional craft in Yangjiabu, which has been passed down from generation to generation. To print beautiful printed matter, each has its own tricks and skills. Printing tools include boxes, handles, rollers, pads, support plates, Zhi Zi, clips, color pots, paper cutters, bottom plates, thick sticks, etc. There were only four earliest colors in Yangjiabu, namely black (Yanzi), red (Su Hong), yellow (Sophora japonica yellow) and green (Sophora japonica green), all of which were made by ourselves. When we saw the ancient pagoda tree, we asked a question, what role did pagoda tree play in Yangjiabu's painting circle, and here we have a satisfactory answer. The printing sequence of Yangjiabu New Year pictures is paper-cutting, paper-calling, line printing, overprint of color plates, and finally painting cutting and drying. When printing a picture, the version should be straight, the paper should be leveled, the color should be brushed evenly, the lining should be heavy and the color plate should be light. Too many colors are easy to stain, and when the color is dry, the color will be incomplete. The picture should be dry and the flowers should be dense. A good painting is not moving around. Seemingly simple, you can't do it without three years of basic skills. Master Yang here has been engaged in painting for more than 50 years and has performed in Japan, South Korea, Germany and other countries many times. Well, if you are interested, you might as well experience the feeling of printing New Year pictures yourself. ?

Every Mid-Autumn Festival in August, people look at the bright moon in the sky and naturally think of the beautiful legend about Chang 'e, but few people really know that Chang 'e ran to the moon from Yuntai Mountain. According to historical records, Chang 'e was the daughter of one of the five ancient emperors. Chang 'e married Hou Yi, a tribal leader. Hou Yi has boundless strength and high martial arts. With the help of various tribes, Xiadu was captured in one fell swoop. When he became an emperor, he did not repair civil affairs and ignored state affairs. Han Zhuo, a general under Hou Yi, was young, handsome and resourceful, and was deeply loved by his subjects, and Chang 'e also loved him. Han Zhuo designed and killed Hou Yi, and established the ancient cool country in his hometown, which is now Hanting District, where Chang 'e settled with Han Zhuo. Chang 'e's marriage aroused the hatred of a group of advocates of feudal ethics. She couldn't stand the cynicism of the world, stole the elixir of the Queen Mother and flew to the moon. The high loess port under everyone's feet was called Yuntai Mountain in ancient times, which is said to be the place of the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon. Now the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon Station is built to commemorate it. ?
