"The fish skin making technique of Chagan Lake originates from the fishing and hunting culture that has been widely passed down in Chagan Lake for thousands of years. During the Liaojin Dynasty, with the rise of the 'bowl' system, fishing and hunting culture gradually flourished, and it also gave birth to the unique art form of fish skin painting in Chagan Lake. With the change of history, the fish skin making technology of Chagan Lake has been widely spread around Chagan Lake, and has become an important expression of regional characteristic culture represented by fishing and hunting culture. Chagan Lake fish skin painting is a representative product of Chagan Lake fish skin production technology, and its production process mainly includes seven links such as creativity, design, material selection, modeling, cutting, sewing, and mounting. The production techniques mainly include body stitching, three-dimensional kneading, flat engraving and flat art stacking 'four major techniques'. These processes and techniques not only adhere to the inheritance, but also have the continuous innovation with the times, reflecting the technical characteristics and artistic value of the fish skin painting in Chagan Lake. At present, the fish skin making technology of Chagan Lake has become a provincial intangible cultural heritage project in Jilin Province. Xu Yu, the inheritor of the fish skin making technology of Chagan Lake, introduced the "fish skin painting making technology" from Jilin to reporters and friends at the event site.
