Humorous netizens commented on Qi Baishi’s aliens like this: It’s true. Qi Baishi encountered several aliens when he was a child in the countryside. He took a glass bottle and put the small aliens into the glass bottle. Copying day and night, you have the masterpiece at the beginning. This painting can be auctioned for 1 billion U.S. dollars, and it is a truly priceless treasure. The movies Qi Baishi liked to watch when he was a child were "StarCraft", "Avengers", "Iron Man", and "Spider-Man", but his favorite was "Alien".
In other words, don’t be so outrageous if you are too imaginative. The following is Qi Baishi’s authentic work. There is a clear difference from the one at the beginning. This painting relies on the resemblance of a shrimp, while the "alien" at the beginning relies on the black and white, gray, space and three-dimensionality of sketches in Western painting methods.
