This is a ship.

A sailboat parked on the coast, like a tall building, and is looking up to it.

The hull is all made of wooden structures, with nine masts erected. When sailing at full speed, nine giant sails can be raised.

The bow of the ship is engraved with a mighty face of dragon, tiger and beast, and the hull is painted with colorful patterns, like an abstract flying dragon or a swimming fish wandering in the sea.

It is not only huge, but also full of beauty.

The other ships seemed insignificant in front of it, like babies in front of giants.

"Is there such a ship in ancient China? It's too big!"

"It's so exaggerated. I feel like a dragon is flying in front of me. I can feel its domineeringness through the screen."

"Noah's Ark is that right?"

"The sail is almost blocking the sky. Is this a real ship?"

"If it is true, then the displacement of this ship is smaller than that of the aircraft carrier!"

"But if it weren't for the real thing, who would have drawn such a realistic painting!"

...

The audience in front of the screen were amazed.

If this picture appears in modern times, maybe people will only treat it as an illustration of a game or animation.

But this is an ancient painting!

At that time, there was no concept of animation and video games.

This painting is likely to be a realistic painting.

But the more you guessed, the more you felt incredible.

Did China's shipbuilding technology reach such an altitude hundreds of years ago?

"It's too exaggerated? How many people can this ship sit on!"

The memories at the scene were also sighing repeatedly.

What he did not expect was that Sun Zheng actually gave a positive answer: "Thousands of people."

"What? Teacher Sun, do you know the history of this ship?"

Yixing heard some clues from Sun Zheng's tone.

"Know some..." Sun Zheng nodded and pointed to the painting.

"If I guess correctly, this should be...the treasure ship of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Add to this iconic nine masts, it should be the largest one in the legend among the treasure ships of the Ming Dynasty!"

The treasure ship of the Ming Dynasty?

Or the largest one?

Yixing felt inexplicably shocked and continued to ask: "Is this treasure ship a warship from the Ming Dynasty?"

“Not exactly.”

Sun Zheng shook his head and said.

"Treasure ships are a general term for sailing ships used by Zheng He to voyages to the West. Their specifications and uses are not exactly the same."

"But now, when we talk about the treasure ships of the Ming Dynasty, we usually think of the largest treasure ships with nine masts in the legend."

"That's the one in the picture!"

Everyone suddenly realized.

It turns out that behind Zheng He's voyage to the West, there is such a story.

Before this, few people knew that Zheng He had so many things to pay attention to when he was voyage to the West.

But this is even more amazing.

"Mist grass, I just checked the Ming Dynasty treasure ship. The largest one is almost 150 meters long and 60 meters wide..."

"This...this...this is too exaggerated, that's ancient times."

"In that era of backward technology, how did they build such a huge treasure ship?"

"It's incredible!"

"The most disadvantage of this ship is not how big it is! The key is that it is big and can actually go into the water!"

...

The audience was discussing excitedly.

Sun Zheng stared at this picture and praised repeatedly:

"I have to say that the painting skills of this painting are extremely exquisite. The details of the treasure ship are portrayed very clearly, making people feel that the ship seems to be right in front of you, lifelike!"

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other again, gathered on the painting, and read the painting again.

Only then did people realize that the painting skills of this painting are indeed exquisite and experienced.

Or in other words, it was because they were drawn so well that they were shocked by the treasure ship at first sight.

The painter of this painting perfectly reverted the treasure ship to a piece of paper with his superb skills.

It can't be said to be taking pictures.

Because sometimes I will model the lake when taking pictures.

It's like a copy!

Copy all the details of the treasure ship directly on paper!

Such superb painting skills shocked everyone!

And the barrage also started to discuss it fiercely.

"From the style of painting, I think this painter and the Painting Saint have some similarities!"

"Who is the Painting Saint?"

"Wu Daozi, a man from the Tang Dynasty. I think this painting is much more delicate than Wu Daozi's painting."

"And this painting's use of color is no worse than that of the famous painters in history."

"I have always believed that Chinese painting focuses on the explanation of artistic conception, but this painting tells us that Chinese painting can also be realistic!"

"Even this painting combines some techniques from the Western school of painting, which can see some perspective effects."

...

While everyone was discussing fiercely, many people immediately searched for information to see what famous painters were there in the Ming Dynasty.

However, the painters who can be found are either the style of painting that is far from this painting, or there is a clear difference between the painting skills and the painting skills.

Besides, I didn't have the chance to get in touch with the treasure ship.

Teacher Huang sighed: "I have to say that we ancient people were so wise!"

Yixing nodded and said deeply: "Yes, and even the level of this painting is first-class!"

Just when the two were feeling the same.

A shout rang inside the house: "Look, what is this!"
