At about 9 a.m. on April 21, on the balcony of his home of about 6 square meters, An Songsen handled the thickness of bamboo with a planer in his hand to make the skeleton of a kite. The balcony cabinet is filled with Ahn Sonson's tools for making kites, a tile facing the table is scaled, and the materials needed to make the skeleton are hung overhead, and the kites made by Ansonson are completed on this small balcony called the "bucket room".
In the fifth grade of Ahn Sonson Elementary School, an amid a pest in the wheat field near his home, Ahn Son Son was on the scene because of the wide range of aircraft throwing leaflets with control measures in the air. "It was the first time I saw a real airplane, and it felt amazing, after watching the plane fly in the wheat field, I went home and made a model airplane from memory, and the next day I brought it to the school and the teachers said it was realistic." Ansonsen said he fell in love with the feeling of flying and was very interested in model airplanes.
According to An Songsen, he lived in Xi'an Road as a child, and the office of a model aircraft team in Weinan City happened to be near his home. Ansonson lay by the window every day to watch the team members make models, and after a long time, the coach found him, and after learning that Ansonson liked model airplanes, the coach let him enter the classroom to study, and also gave books and materials.
"Once the model aircraft team organized members to go to the province to participate in the competition, I was sick and did not go, my teammates took my work to compete and won the second place, and it was only half a year since I contacted the model aircraft." Mr. Ann said he was interested in anything he could fly to, and his enlightened parents didn't feel like it was a waste of time, and every spring he would take apart his family's things to make a kite to play with, and when he was in class, he would tie the kite to the parallel bars of the playground, float a lesson, and continue to run to the playground to play after class.
The unit organizes kite competitions every year to win the first place after retirement and independently produces more than 130 kites
In 1966, An Songsen filled in the college entrance examination volunteers were all aerospace colleges, and he could not go to college due to his own conditions. Later, An Songsen's group of students caught up with Zhiqing and went to the countryside, and then recruited workers to the Weinan Textile Factory to engage in casting work. An Songsen's wife, who is also a worker in the textile factory, said: "Many of the employees in the factory are from Weifang, Shandong, and every year the factory will hold a kite competition, but the kite that won the first place every year was made by my husband, and later the factory gave him an honorary award and did not let him participate in the competition." ”
On April 21, when a reporter from the China Business Daily first met An Songsen, he felt that he had a spirit in him, and guessed that his age was more than 50 years old. "Everyone can't see that I am a person in my 70s, when I was young, I liked to play badminton, football, fishing, etc., and now I can't keep up with my physical strength and can only play badminton, my children have a family, and I don't have anything to worry about when I retire. Ansonson Road.
After his retirement, Ansonson began to focus on making kites, from the selection of skeleton materials, refining to the painting of wings, etc. were completed by him alone, so far he has produced about 130 kites, the largest kite is about 2.2 meters long, involving eagles, harriers, egrets, butterflies and other shapes.
An Songsen said: "Every morning when I get up at 6 o'clock, I first go to the park to fly a kite for 2 hours, go home to draw my wings until noon, and go to the Weihe River beach in the afternoon to fly kites with friends for more than 3 hours." When dry casting, I have to carry 30 kilograms of molten iron into the container one by one, when the badminton coach exerts full strength, making kites is relaxing for me, when I am making a step, I will think about how to complete the next step, and before I know it, time has passed. ”
The wife laughed and said that the family had become an "eagle's nest" and the citizens sang together under the kite
Ansonson said: "Love to play is my label, I do not make the same kite, look at the eye, the kite seems to be the shape of an eagle, but from the wings, eyes and other details can see the difference." "Ansonson's inspiration for making kites comes from life, he observes birds when he walks, checks the status of flight through books and the Internet, and he also chooses to make kites from the works of photography enthusiasts around him.
In all corners of Ansonson's home, a casual flip, can turn out the finished kite, through the assembly can be windy at any time. "He was so annoying that he loved to make kites and turned his home into an 'eagle's nest', and his children's room became a storage room... I used to go out with him every day to fly kites, but now I can't do it on my legs and feet, and I usually wait for him at home. Ansonsen's wife said these words with a smile on her face, and she could tell the time of each kite making.
Among Ansunsen's many collections, there is a kite with a rather unique shape, its wings are coated with red paint, each painted with 5 five-pointed stars, the eagle's body is written with the word "Long live", and the lower body is decorated with 56 small stars. "56 nationalities protect our motherland, 'Long live China' is one of my most unique works, this kite flies in the sky is very conspicuous, last year I flew this kite in Renhe Park, the citizens spontaneously sang "I Love You China" after seeing it, I did not think about this kind of thing, I was very touched at that moment." Ansonson said that making kites also brings fun to others.
At about 5 p.m. on April 21, An Songsen bid farewell to his friends and left the river beach, rode back to the community on an electric car, and pressed the horn three times to go upstairs. Leaving home and pressing the horn 2 times means "gone", and going home and pressing the horn 3 times means "coming back", which is the agreement between the couple.
