He began to try making the model of Qinian Hall in October,2010.During the five years, Wang has been to Beijing for many times. He searched for data, calculated structure, designed drawings and made components(零件).Meanwhile, he has met failure for many times. Finally, with the full support of his family, Wang has completed the mini pure handmade Qinian Hall of mortise and tenon joint structure successfully, which has won the gold medal of 2016 world handicraft products exposition (2016世界手工藝品博覽會金獎).
The small work of Qinian Hall contains more than 100,000 processes and it is made up of 7,108 parts.Used by mortise and tenon structure, the work doesn't work need a nail or a drop of glue. Its delicacy (精緻) lies in everywhere.For example, every door can be taken(拆分) into eight parts. Every railing is flexible.
With Lego (樂高) and other foreign toys are getting more and more popular, Wang Zhenhua desired to make a Chinese Lego, so he made the "Qinian Hall" into building block(玩具、積木), with th height (高度) of 20 cm.
