Perfection of Rebirth

Chapter 733

The last shooting location of the first documentary "A Bite of the Tongue" planned by Guanghui Film and Television was the scene of winter hunting in Chagan Lake.

Documentary, documentary is the greatest charm, the shape of the characters, the production of ingredients, leaving us with endless imagination.

Over the past year, the photography team of Brilliant Films has been working hard around this theme. Jiang Hui and He Ling were also present in person for the last scene shooting.

"As far as the eye can see, I don't know which is the lake and which is the land." As soon as he got out of the car, He Ling was stunned by the white scene in front of him.

Chagan Lake was called "Dashuipo" and "Dayubo" in the Song and Liao Dynasties. The "Wuhu Jing Zongyao" edited by Zeng Gongliang in the Northern Song Dynasty records: "The surrounding area of ​​​​the Dashuipo is three hundred miles."

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Emperor Taizu of Liao Dynasty (916) called it "Duck Lok", and it was a place for Khitan nobles to fish and hunt.

In the Ming Dynasty, Chagan Lake was called "Baibur Chahan Dabo", which means a white and holy lake. Most of it is located in the former Guoerluomeng Autonomous County in the northwest of Kyrgyzstan Province, in the water network area where the Nen River and the Huolin River meet. It is a barrier lake at the tail of the Huolin River.

Generally, the largest lake has a surface area of ​​307 square kilometers, and the shoreline of the lake is winding and winding, with a circumference of 104.5 kilometers.

When the water storage elevation is 130 meters, the water surface area is 345 square kilometers, and the water storage is more than 6 million cubic meters. It is one of the top ten freshwater lakes in the country.

Chagan Lake has a variety of resources and is uniquely endowed, especially rich in fishery resources.

Since the Liao and Jin Dynasties, the emperors of all dynasties have visited Chagan Lake for "fortune" and "fishing and hunting", and held "head fish feast" and "head goose feast".

From the Yuan Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty, there were dotted rivers and marshes in this area, where whitebaits shuttled, the aquatic plants were fertile, and geese and ducks lived there.

The forests along the coast are lush, the fields are luxuriant and grassy, ​​and the scenery is picturesque. It is a fishing and hunting place for emperors of Liao, Jin and Yuan Dynasties to tour and play.

"It's winter now, so it doesn't look that spectacular. It will be even more magnificent if we come to the water-rich area in summer," Wang Lu said with a smile.

Wang Lu is from Jin City, but her parents are from Kyrgyzstan, and her mother's family is near Chagan Lake, so she is very familiar with the situation of Chagan Lake.

"It is said that winter fishing in Chagan Lake is the most spectacular in the country, and today I finally have the opportunity to see it," Jiang Hui said with a sigh of relief.

Winter fishing in Chagan Lake, that is, ice and snow fishing in Chagan Lake in winter, is a traditional fishery production custom.

As early as the Liao and Jin Dynasties, winter fishing in Chagan Lake was famous.Although the years have changed, the magic, mystery and sacredness of winter fishing in Chagan Lake remain.

The wonder of winter fishing in Chagan Lake has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of Kyrgyzstan.

According to historical records, Emperor Shengdazong of the Liao Dynasty liked to eat "ice fish". Every year in the twelfth lunar month, he led his family to camp on the frozen Chagan Lake.Order the servants to scrape the ice in the tent until it is as thin as paper, and the fish swimming under the ice can be clearly seen.

When you have seen enough and want to eat, you will break the thin ice lightly, and the fresh fish in the water will jump onto the ice one after another and become a table thing for the emperor and ministers to feast on.

"Hurry up, the sacrificial activity of Winter Catch is about to begin," Wang Lu said.

I saw that during the sacrificial ceremony of winter fishing, Mongolian girls in costumes offered dried milk to the fishermen.The lama handed the offerings in his arms to the "Yubatou" one by one, and the "Yubatou" placed the offerings on the table in order, then inserted nine sticks of incense into the three incense burners and lit them, and then led all the lamas to go around in a clockwise direction. Go around the table, ice cave and ice and snow obo three times and chant scriptures.

Afterwards, the "Fisherman" stood in the middle of the field, picked up the wine bowl, raised his hands over his head, and began to recite the poems for offering sacrifices to the lake: "Ah! Longevity, the spirit of the ancestors; ah! Protect all living beings, seek prosperity, seek prosperity. Chagan Lake, Heavenly Father's mirror; Chagan Lake..."

"This event is very ceremonial," He Ling said.

"That's for sure, to make this winter catch famous, regardless of whether it is useful or not, various rituals are indispensable," Jiang Hui analyzed.

After sacrificing to the lake, the "fisherman" held the "chao laozi" in his hand, stirred a few times in the ice hole that had been dug, and lifted it up vigorously, and fished out a lively fat fish from the lake. Come.

"This is called Kaihutouyu," Wang Lu acted as a tour guide for Jiang Hui and He Ling.

I saw the fish writhing in the air, jumping up and down when it landed on the ice, and weighed 34 catties on the scale.

After a while, the big fish will not move anymore. In the environment of ten or twenty degrees below zero, the fish will be "quick-frozen" soon after it comes out of the water.

At the end of the fish start, firecrackers are set off, the sound of yelling to drive a carriage, the sound of the horn of the fish, the sound of firecrackers, the sound of lamas chanting scriptures, the sound of horse bells, the sound of drums, and the sound of horns are mysteriously floating on the surface of Chagan Lake. The quiet snow field is full of extremely seductive charm.

"This is the official start, right? You don't need to take pictures of me, it's useless to take pictures," Jiang Hui said, looking at the photographer who kept pointing the camera at his side.

Jiang Hui and the others were fully armed, with gloves, earbags, leather hats, and sheepskin jackets. They walked on the ice and watched this amazing winter capture.

"It seems to be starting to go online," He Ling said after several people watched on the snow for half an hour.

I saw that three horses were pulling the net wheel, and the double-sided nets were merged together by the cooperation of the sash and the hook on the net wheel. A large net composed of 96 pieces of nets pulled out 3 pieces of each wing at the same time. It is called a pull, and it is pulled out in 16 times.

The first pull has no fish, and the second pull starts to produce fish.

When the fish comes out, the fish hanging on the net is directly pulled to the ice surface with the net and then picked off, and the fish floating on the net outlet is fished out with a "fish".

In the end, more fish are concentrated in the net belly due to the reason of pulling fish every time.

The net belly is a pocket at the back end of the net. A net belly can hold up to one million catties of fish catch. After the fish in the net belly is caught, the net belly is pulled out of the ice and the fish is loaded and transported away.

The nets are reloaded on the sledges by beating, twisting spears, and hooking. At this point, the winter fishing with one net is over.

"It's really hard to imagine this scene for someone who hasn't seen it on the spot," He Ling, who was the most excited person today, kept repeating.

"I said, dear Mr. He, I have never seen you make such a fuss. It seems that Jiang Hui is different today," Wang Lu said with a smile.

"Lulu, what are you talking about, are you looking for a beating?" He Ling said in a beating gesture.

As the general manager of Guanghui Film and Television, He Ling usually looks like an iceberg beauty, so naturally she won't make a fuss easily.

However, now that he and Jiang Hui come out for half work and half play, it is naturally different.

It is a rare opportunity to be with the one you love, and you will definitely not be so restrained anymore.

However, this kind of joke, only people like Wang Lu who are close friends after get off work and subordinates at work dare to say so.

The so-called high places are too cold, sometimes it is not what you want.

The ass decides the head, whether you are in a high position or a grassroots person, you will combine your role and say what suits you.
