This star has some salty fish

Li Han smiled and said: "The white stork is definitely not wrong to be called a white stork."

Wang Chang laughed and said, "Young friend Li Han is right."

Huang Jian smiled, and then saw a person painting over there, and his eyes lit up.

As the head of the Yinjiang City Painting Association, he was very interested in seeing this situation.

So he said, "Let's go and have a look."

Li Han and Wang Chang nodded.

Chapter 359 The Problem with Songhe Picture

After that, Li Han, Huang Jian, and Wang Chang slowly walked behind the young painter.

Unsurprisingly, the picture that the young artist was painting was the picture on the Crane's Rest Pine tree not far away.

Of course, to be precise, it should be the stork resting on the pine tree.But almost everyone at the scene thought it was a crane.

People get it wrong, but it's actually quite normal.

Because storks and cranes are very similar, and both belong to large and medium-sized wading birds.

They are also similar in shape, with long beaks, long necks, long legs, and so on.

The flying posture is also similar, with the head, neck and legs straight, and the huge wings are slowly flapped to fly.

It's normal for two species that are so similar to be confused.

Of course, if you distinguish carefully, there are still differences between them.

In a situation like the present one, one can know that the ones on the pine trees are storks, not cranes, without carefully distinguishing them.

Because cranes cannot perch on trees.

why?

Because the crane's rear toes are high, not on the same plane as the front three toes, and are degenerated and short, so they cannot form a confrontation with the front three toes.

That is to say, the crane's toes cannot hold the tree trunk firmly, so it cannot perch on the tree.

And the stork can.

Because the stork's rear toes are on the same level as the front three toes, and they have not degenerated, so they can form a confrontation with the front three toes.

Thus, it can firmly grasp the trunk, just like other birds.

Therefore, it must be a stork, not a crane, that can perch on a tree.

The painting skills of the young artist are still very good, and the painting speed is very fast, and the pine tree and "white stork" are quickly presented on the drawing paper.

Huang Jian couldn't help nodding secretly, in his opinion, the young man is still very good.

It's just that there is a little mistake in the white stork drawn by the young man.

The four toes of the white stork he painted are on the same plane, grasping the tree trunk tightly.There's nothing wrong with that, it's the stork's toe.

But other parts, such as the head and neck, are obviously cranes.

Because the proportion of the head he painted is relatively small and the neck is slender, which are the characteristics of cranes.

The stork has a larger head and a thicker neck. The overall appearance is "stronger" than that of the crane, and the body of the stork is more "slender".

Therefore, if you look carefully, you will find that the big white bird painted by the young man is the toes of the stork and the body of the crane. The stork is not a stork, and the crane is not a crane. It is somewhat nondescript.

Of course, if you don't look carefully, there is nothing wrong with it. It is a beautiful picture of a "crane" resting on a pine tree.

After the young man finished painting, he felt someone behind him, and then looked back.First I was stunned, and then I was overjoyed.

He quickly stood up and said, "Hi, President Huang! I have met President Huang."

"Oh?" Huang Jian was a little surprised, and said, "You know me?"

The young man said, "President Huang, my name is Yang Xucan, from Yinjiang City."

It turns out that since he is from Yinjiang City and likes to paint, he must know Huang Jian.

Huang Jian smiled slightly and said, "I see, I'm glad to see you here."

The young man named Yang Xucan said: "It's my luck to see President Huang here. I wonder if President Huang can comment on the painting I just finished?"

Huang Jian nodded. He was also very happy to meet a young artist from Yinjiang City here.

Then, Huang Jian commented on the young man's painting, and he basically affirmed it.

Finally said: "However, if you want to judge seriously, there is actually a mistake in this painting."

"Is there a mistake?" Yang Xucan was startled, and quickly asked, "What's the mistake? President Huang, please point it out."

At this time, Zhou Jin, who was broadcasting live, and the rest of the tourists around were also attracted, and everyone gathered around.

Then they all saw Yang Xucan's painting and heard what Huang Jian said just now.

What kind of mistake is there?Everyone can't help being a little curious.

Including the audience in the live broadcast room.

"This young man's painting is very good! The pine tree and the white crane are all very good. How could there be a mistake?"

"The 'President Huang' in the young population is obviously a professional. Let's see what he said?"

"..."

Huang Jian smiled and said, "I guess when you were drawing these big birds just now, you didn't observe them carefully, but after looking at a general idea, you started to draw according to the image of the crane in your mind, right?"

Yang Xucan was shocked. He really was like this.But the point is, why can Huang Jian see it?This is too amazing, right?

Not only Yang Xucan felt miraculous, but the tourists around and the audience in the live broadcast room also felt miraculous.

Yang Xucan said: "President Huang is right. But how did President Huang know?"

Huang Jian said: "The big birds on the pine tree over there are still there. You can compare the white crane you drew with those big white birds, and then maybe you will know."

Really?Could it be that there is something wrong with the painting of a few white cranes?This is impossible.

Thinking it was impossible, Yang Xucan still began to carefully compare the white cranes he painted, how is it different from the "white cranes" on the pine tree?

The tourists at the scene and the audience in the live broadcast room were also responding to this, and they didn't see any difference!

After Yang Xucan made a careful comparison, he was surprised that he really developed something different.

The white crane on the tree is "stronger" than the one I painted, with a thicker neck and a larger head.

Just, what's wrong with that?People are fat and thin, and cranes are different, so it should be normal, right?

Thinking of this, Yang Xucan told the difference he found.And then said it shouldn't be a problem, right?

The rest of the tourists around and the audience in the live broadcast room, after hearing what Yang Xucan said were different, took a closer look and found that there was something different.

Then, like Yang Xucan, they didn't think there was any problem with that.Yang Xucan just painted "thinner".

Huang Jian said with a smile: "If there is no problem, of course it is okay. But in fact there is a problem. Because the big white birds on the tree are not actually cranes. They are storks. And the 'white crane' you painted ', which is actually a combination of the body of the crane and the toes of the stork, is wrong."

What?Not a crane, but a stork?

Yang Xucan, the tourists around him, and the audience in the live broadcast room were all taken aback.

Huang Jian continued to explain, briefly explaining the difference between storks and cranes, and why cranes cannot live on trees.

It dawned on everyone that they had been confusing the crane with the stork all along.

And cranes can't live on trees, they just realized it now, they really learned a lot.

At this time, a tourist who was here yesterday and took photos of red-crowned cranes took out his mobile phone and clicked on the photos of red-crowned cranes. He found that the rear toes of the red-crowned crane were not on the same level as the first three toes, and had degenerated and become shorter.

Such toes are indeed unable to grasp the trunk.

No wonder they never saw the red-crowned crane climbing the tree. It turned out that they couldn't go up at all.

Then, the "White Crane" painted by Yang Xucan is indeed problematic.

Yang Xucan repeatedly expressed his gratitude to Huang Jian for pointing out the mistakes in his paintings.

At this time, a tourist suddenly said: "Mr. Huang, now we know that red-crowned cranes cannot perch on trees. But there is a famous "Pine Crane Picture" in which red-crowned cranes perch on pine trees! How is this? What's the matter?"

Songhe picture?

That's right, what's going on with Songhetu?

Yang Xucan, the other tourists, and the audience in the live broadcast room also thought of it at this time. In traditional Chinese paintings, you can often see red-crowned cranes perched on pine trees.

That is definitely a red-crowned crane rather than a stork, because the red-crowned crane is very recognizable.

Since red-crowned cranes cannot perch on trees, what happened to those Chinese paintings?

Huang Jian said with a smile: "The crane in the 'Pine Crane Picture' is indeed a red-crowned crane. The Chinese painting of a red-crowned crane standing on a pine branch has existed since ancient times. It is a widely spread folk pattern and is an auspicious pattern.

Because this pattern has the metaphorical meaning of "Songhe Yannian", it is very popular among painters.

But from the actual situation, this painting method can be said to be wrong, because red-crowned cranes cannot stand on pine branches, and such pictures cannot be seen in nature.

So, why did the 'Songhe Picture' appear?

This is likely because ancient painters mistook the similar-looking stork or heron perched on a pine tree for a crane.

Then, through artistic processing, the crane was painted as a red-crowned crane.

Because the red-crowned crane is a crane, which symbolizes longevity.Painted together with the pine tree, that is Songhe Yannian, which is very auspicious.

Then, because of its auspicious meaning, the "Songhe Picture" gradually spread among the people, and it is still very popular among painters until today.

Therefore, although the "Songhe Picture" is a wrong way of painting, although such a picture cannot be seen in nature, it exists reasonably.

It is already a symbol of auspiciousness and a kind of culture. "

Chapter 360 Solve interesting questions and get Li Han's "Pine and Crane Picture"

It turned out to be the case.

Everyone nodded secretly, they all understood that Songhe Picture is actually a kind of artistically processed work.

Huang Jian added: "It is indeed a kind of artistic processing, and it is also a classic pattern inherited from ancient times. We should also understand that it is unreasonable."

Everyone nodded again. They felt that they had gained a little knowledge today.

At this time, Yang Xucan said: "President Huang, thank you very much for introducing this to us. It would be great if we were lucky enough to witness President Huang personally painting a picture of a pine and a crane."

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the tourists on the scene, as well as the audience in the live broadcast room, all showed great anticipation.

At this time, everyone already knew Huang Jian's identity as the president of the Yinjiang City Painting Association, and he had a deep knowledge of painting.

If you can see Huang Jian on the spot, it will definitely make people look forward to it.

"Draw a picture of a pine and a crane?" Huang Jian thought for a while, then looked at Li Han, and said with a smile: "Little friend Li Han, I think it would be more appropriate for you to draw."

"Li Han came to draw?" Everyone was taken aback, not because of Li Han's identity.

They all knew Li Han's identity now, including the audience in the direct room.

It's because everyone is thinking, can Li Han also paint?

After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly realized.

I wipe!I almost forgot that Li Han is also very good at painting.

In the last National Youth Painting Competition, Li Han miraculously won No.1.

It's all because Li Han is good at too many fields. Since the last painting competition, he has not shown his painting works to the outside world.

They all forgot that Li Han was also good at painting.

If it is painted by Li Han, it seems to be even more exciting.

Everyone looked at Li Han expectantly again.

Li Han smiled and said, "Old Huang, how can my painting ability compare with yours? I'm afraid you will have to come here in person for this matter!"

Huang Jian waved his hand and said, "Young friend Li Han is being modest, your painting ability may not be inferior to mine."

After the two declined, Li Han finally "compromised", so he drew a picture of a pine and a crane.

Li Han has never drawn a picture of a pine and a crane before. This is the first time he has drawn it, and he is still very interested.

Yang Xucan was very excited, and quickly spread out a new drawing paper, placed brushes, inks, paints and other tools, and said, "Mr. Li Han, please!"
