Thousand Paper Cranes played it when they were children!
Almost every post-90s childhood has had its own thousand paper cranes.
In the origami design, the thousand paper crane is the most successful origami that has entered our lives.
When there is a beloved boy, you can fold a string of thousand paper cranes and give it to him.
Under the breeze, the strings of thousands of paper cranes look particularly elegant.
Fold a thousand paper cranes and make a wish, the dream will come true...
The art of origami is not far away from us, from paper airplanes to aerospace equipment will use origami design and principles.
These simple paper airplanes, paper cranes, paper frogs, and paper rabbits are all childhood memories.
But there is a person who sees origami as such!
such!
And so on!
And something like that.
The most important thing is that this person also set a world record with origami.
He became our national treasure origami master, and also became the first person in the world.
He is Liu Tong.
It may be ordinary to hear the name, but what he does is something that many people can't accomplish in a lifetime.
The key is that he is still very young after the 80s, and he is already a world-renowned master,
He carries an honor that many people cannot hope to achieve.
"Chinese Origami Master",
"The first person in China to origami",
"China's only origami national ceremony designer".
What is a Ceremonial Designer?
When commemorating the anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations with friendly countries, Liu Tong's works can often become a good choice to send to friendly countries to celebrate.
For example, the national ceremony on the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Gabon in 2014 was Liu Tong's "Blue Vase".
Using origami art to express our culture Kuibao blue and white porcelain,
It's just a showmanship.
At the World Peace Festival 2015,
Liu Tong's work "Ding Li" was given as a national gift to neighboring Japan.
This work highlights that our country's cultural heritage is as thick as a ding.
In 2016, Liu Tong's work "He" became a national gift to the president of the Maldives on the World Peace Festival.
Chinese culture, a "he" word, perfectly explains the height of our civilization.
In addition to being a state gift,
The museum is also very fond of Liu Tong's works,
He often collects his works and uses them for treasure.
"Yongding Gate" is in the collection of the Capital Museum,
"Eight Flags High Ribbon Shoulder Armor" is collected in the Capital Museum,
"Angel Gabriel" is collected by the Hungarian Embassy,
Germany's World Cup winning team emblem "Black Eagle" is collected by the German Football Association.
Origami is an art, but it's rare to be able to make such an amazing work of art.
However, achieving such a great career is the beginning and a romantic opportunity.
Liu Tong, who was still studying in Germany in 2006,
By chance, in the process of taking a normal bus ride, I saw a romantic uncle casually fold a beautiful rose and give it to the beautiful woman next to her.
Infected by this magical and romantic scene,
After Liu Tong returned home, he immediately began his origami journey.
By consulting the materials, doing it yourself, and learning by yourself.
From then on, he was out of control and completely fell in love with origami.
Even, after returning to China after completing his studies, he became a university lecturer.
He also uses his spare time to learn how to fold out more surprising works of art.
From the beginning simple thousand paper cranes. And the various small animals that follow the tutorial,
Later not satisfied with the small works of the present.
So I carried paper with me and played with it in my free time.
From the initial imitation to the later start of their own original works,
The paper is getting bigger and bigger, and the folding method is becoming more and more complicated.
Maybe some people think that this is very simple just need to follow the line and fold it step by step.
It's really not difficult, the hard part is how to create these lines.
Each line requires precise calculations to move the work to the right next step.
The knowledge of mechanical manufacturing studied in Germany has left Liu Tong with enough space for thinking.
A square piece of white paper, after careful calculation, draws a complex crease,
After repeated practice,
Finally, it can turn into a lifelike paper elephant!
Is it possible for you to fold one out of thin air? Unless you're an alien!
Without these series of complex calculations and attempts, it would not have been possible to have such a perfect work of art.
This "San Marco Flying Lion",
After unfolding, you will find out how simple the lines are,
Can you imagine that this perfect obliquely symmetrical pattern will eventually turn into a paper lion capable of standing?
This is simple in Liu Tong's eyes,
He used to spend 10 months creating,
A work that makes people exclaim that it is impossible to complete.
This work is called "Dragon Soul",
After Mr. Kazuo Kobayashi, the Japanese origami master, saw it,
Marvel at it too!
The "one-horned immortal" in Kobayashi's hand is under this dragon,
Dwarfed!
This dragon has a total of 1444 dragon scales,
Dragon is known in China as auspicious and supreme.
From the very beginning of the origami enthusiast,
In the end, origami works are used to express emotions,
In every work of art, there is a deep reflection of the author.
This work called "Mother's Love",
It is the story of the mother of the pangolin who protects the young pangolin in her belly.
Someone killed a pangolin and threw it to the ground, and it curled up tighter and tighter. The man's latte tongs clipped it to the brazier and burned it. When the scale armor was exhausted, the smell of burnt was diffuse, and it remained in its original state for a long time before it slowly straightened its body and lost its breath. Later, everyone was shocked to find that on its belly was a small pangolin, which had been beaten and burned with flesh and blood, and guarded the child to death. The power of that mother's love transcends the limits of life!
Today the work is in the collection of the Zaragoza Museum of origami in Spain.
Although in the eyes of others, these origami works are more suitable for taking pictures,
But in Liu Tong's eyes, these works are the true cry of his heart.
Carefully found that Liu Tong created a lot of works related to animals,
This is inextricably linked to his ambition to protect animals since he was a child.
The Vulture of "Solitude",
The eagle of "Soaring",
There are also gorillas, leopards and rhinos.
This is all a reminder to protect the ecology and protect animals with works!
Learned in 2016 in the African region,
There is a precious wild animal, the northern white rhinoceros.
Only the last male survived in the world.
On March 19, 2018, the world's last male northern white rhino, the Sultan, died in Kenya at the age of 45.
Therefore, it was decided to use origami art to arouse everyone's awareness of wildlife protection.
A year later,
14 meters in length and width, 196 square meters in area, 100 kilograms of special square white paper,
Tiled in the atrium of the MixC in Zhengzhou,
In Liu Tong and his team, after more than 3 hours of hard work,
Turned the white paper into a paper rhinoceros with a length of 7.833 meters and a height of 4.064 meters.
Created, the world's largest origami rhinoceros!
Witnessed by the Guinness Calibrator, a new Guinness World Record was born.
Subsequently, the paper rhino was invited,
Exhibited in embassies in several EU countries.
Let the world hear Liu Tong's voice,
It also made Liu Tong the "first person in the world to origami".
