CCTV-102020.3.3 15:38 Broadcast "Chinese Film Facts" Tibet Qushui broadcasts the Qushui trailer "Qushui", which means "run water ditch" in Tibetan. Qushui County of the Tibet Autonomous Region is located at the confluence of Zhuopugou, Lhasa River and Yarlung Zangbo River. Before 1959, Qushui County was ruled by the "Qushui School". In today's county town, the Qushui Village on the Lhasa River still retains the remains of Qushui Zongbao. The rich Lhasa Valley, Nymph River Valley and Yarlung Zangbo River Valley are also known as "Three Granary Silos in Tibet". Qushui is a small town in the Lhasa River Valley. According to the Records of Qushui County: In August 1959, Qushui and Samadzong merged to form Qushui County, which belongs to Lhasa. The wild yak dance is located in Liuwu New District on the south bank of the Lhasa River. The yak museum in Tibet has a construction area of ​​more than 8,000 square meters, and is the first special museum in China and even in the world with the theme of yak. Based on the "yak spirit" concept, the museum vividly reflects the indivisible relationship between the Tibetan people and the yak with its rich and diverse precious exhibits. The wild yak dance, which originated in the 17th century, is one of the ancient folk customs that carry the yak culture. The wild yak dance in Qushui County originated from Xie Rong Village and is called "Xie Rong Neutron" in Tibetan. In 2011, "Xie Rong Neutron" in Qushui County was included in the National Intangible Cultural Heritage List. The traditional wild yak dance is performed by a lead dancer and two pairs of "wild yak" performers. Playing "Yak" is a test of tacit understanding between the two dancers. They must be highly consistent in pace to achieve continuous difficult movements in jumping and rolling. The leader of the wild yak dance is called "Time". He determines the overall rhythm of the wild yak dance. The tone and password of "Ag" is extremely complicated. Only when the tone is high and accurate, it can be related to "wild yak" Cooperate closely to perform a wonderful performance. As a unique folk musical instrument in Tibet, Tibetan tunes are crisp and bright. Tibetan sound is widely used for accompaniment and performance of Tibetan songs and dances. Since ancient times, Zanin has maintained a simple style. The piano head is bent back into a semi-arc, with three chords on each side. The piano stem is thin and connected to a half-gourd wooden resonance box. In 2014, Qin Zhannian's production skills were included in the National Intangible Cultural Heritage List. The "Kudze" dance is powerful. There is an ancient village in the mountains in the east of Qushui County, called Junba Fishing Village. This is the only village in Lhasa that lives on fishing. Throughout their long lives, people here have created a unique Tibetan dance-"kudzi". "Kudze" is also called cowhide boat dance. The lead dance during the song and dance performed with the "boatman" carrying a leather boat. It is impossible to prove when this unique local dance originated. Today, the villagers of Junba have stopped fishing, but the cowhide dance has been passed down from generation to generation. The "boatman" raised his arm to support the hull. A paddle passed through their waist and back. The paddle and the wooden boat collided with each other as the body swayed, making an unrestrained and warm sound. Kayak weighs 30 to 40 kilograms and dancers need to master the control skills to mobilize all their power to perform. This is the biggest difficulty in kayaking dance. In 2008, the "purple sunflower" declared by Qushui County was included in the National Intangible Cultural Heritage List. Now, with the support of the government, Qushui County vigorously develops the folk culture industry of Junba Fishing Village, and has formed unique folk characteristics, such as the local cowhide boat dance and cowhide boat crafts. The Thangka Art Heritage and Innovation in Qushui County is located in Xiongse Temple, the largest nun temple in Tibet. The murals of the main temple painted in 1988 are colorful and solemn.

At the age of 27, he became a famous Thangka painter in Qushui County. The young Tsering Robb pioneered the art of painting murals on canvas in Tibet.

This method effectively avoids the disadvantages of dismantling murals due to architectural repairs or reconstructions, and at the same time perfectly integrates murals and Thangka art. In 2013, Tibetan mural techniques were included in the Intangible Cultural Heritage List of the Tibet Autonomous Region. Today, Cai Lin Lop Nur is the director of the "Thangka Capital of China" and the national representative heir of the "Thangka Qinze Painting Academy in Tibet." Qin Ze School is one of the four traditional schools of Thangka in Tibet. It has a history of more than 500 years. Qingze School uses landscapes, flowers and birds as painting elements, with fresh and elegant colors, humorous and interesting characters, and exquisite painting skills. The pigments used to draw Thangka and murals are made by hand grinding precious minerals such as gold, silver, malachite and cinnabar. Pure natural mineral materials ensure that the colors of the murals remain bright even after thousands of years of wind erosion. The agricultural demonstration zone in Caishang Township, Qushui County is the forefront of smart agriculture in the Yuxue Plateau, and is the first ecological park in Tibet to introduce new varieties and experiment. Since the development of Qushui County agricultural demonstration zone, more than 50 kinds of crops have been successfully planted and promoted. However, the rise of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau green base is inseparable from the joint cooperation of agricultural experts across the country. Many people have left their hard work here. After ten years of unremitting efforts, Zhiyu and his team led Qushuiren. They finally planted more than ten kinds of grapes and created a plateau miracle. In 2018, this vibrant vineyard was awarded the "Highest Altitude Vineyard" by Guinness World Records. In Qushui County's agricultural demonstration area, stands Tibet's largest thermostatic glass greenhouse, known as the "hundred-acre multi-layer greenhouse." A variety of high-quality seedlings are cultivated here. Burdock is one of the cash crops successfully cultivated in greenhouses, and has experienced a bumper harvest for two years. In 2010, Caina Township, Qushui County was identified as a national modern agriculture demonstration area. Today, with the support of agricultural big data, an Internet real-time monitoring system has been introduced to develop the most advanced intelligent agriculture on snowy plateaus. The simple and industrious Qushui people used their wisdom and sweat to create a new process of modern agricultural civilization and continue to compose moving pastoral movements. Use images to record the present, to express the changes in China yesterday, the images of today and the history of tomorrow.
