Weifang Daily, Weifang Rong Media, walked into Yangjiabu Village, Hansing District, and the kite shops on both sides of the road were linked. The kite artists were busy making kites, and Wang Yongxun was no exception. As a national intangible cultural heritage inheritance, in recent years, Wang Yongxun has continued to innovate on the basis of inheriting traditional kite skills, producing several giant kites of hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters, attracting widespread attention from people from all walks of life. Recently, he led the team to make a 200 -meter -long "fish leaping dragon door" kite. The production lasted for more than four months and was about to be completed.

"Fish Yuelong Gate" kite is about to fly

On the morning of September 1st, Tiancheng Feitu Kite Co., Ltd., Wang Yongxun was focusing on making a traditional barrel kite. The kite's tie and paste work have been completed. Now painting is currently painted. The reporter saw that the shape of the kite was a "dragon gate" with four red pillars. There was a dragon in the middle of the two pillars, majestic and lifelike. There are three carp in the center of the door, and there is a larger carp above. When the kite flies into the sky, the three carps in the middle will turn with the wind, showing the scene of the carp jumping the dragon gate.

Although the "Longmen" in front of me is already two tall, Wang Yongxun told reporters: "This kite is just a test flight model. More than a dozen people have been produced for 4 months, and it is expected to be completed in recent days. "

It can be seen from the renderings of the kite that the scene after the carp passes through the dragon gate is even more exciting. There are 20 carp behind the door, and a dragon is behind. The length of this dragon is more than 100 meters.

In terms of kite's production skills, Wang Yongxun still adopts the traditional Weifang kite tie skills. In terms of selection of materials, because the "fish leaping dragon gate" belongs to the giant kite, the wind is large when flying, in addition to the common bamboo strips of the kite skeleton, there are some carbon rods. It's firm.

Wang Yongxun said: "In recent years, the new styles of kites have emerged endlessly, but traditional kites are still our valuable wealth. It is worthy of our original intention of making this kite."

There are long -lasting traditional shapes such as tigers, butterflies, and fish. Many young people's eyes. On the eve of the Spring Festival every year, his lanterns are in short supply.

Because the production of kites and lanterns contains tienation, mounting, and painting skills, Wang Yongxun is ingenious. The production of kites and lanterns is cleverly combined to make the works he created "one specialization": placed on the ground is a lantern, hanging on the wall on the wall, hanging on the wall on the wall The New Year painting, flying in the sky is a kite. For example, the leading kite, with a light, is a classic lantern kite.
