Chapter XXIV
There are also several bungalows in the courtyard of the guest house, which serve as a back kitchen and storehouse. There are scales in the warehouse, and the girls often come here to weigh themselves after practicing in the morning.
It was the dead of night, most of the people were asleep, and it was pitch black upstairs, except for a few houses with lights on.
The two figures sneakily slipped out of the door of the building, ran into the back kitchen against the wall, one was at the door as a matter of course, and the other was fighting on the front line consciously.
There's no way, Chen Xiaoxu has this virtue and has many ideas, but he has always hidden behind people.
And Xu Fei entered the warehouse and saw that the room was full of bamboo baskets, stacked high, and he couldn't see the inside at all. He reached in and scratched blindly, and immediately retracted when he touched something, but it was a straight purple eggplant.
"Eggplant ......"
He wanted to touch the tomatoes, but the eggplant could also be used, so he reached in a second time and grabbed it, this time a cucumber.
"Why are they all long?"
He reached in for the third time, and hey, the round skate was cold, and it felt right, and sure enough, he felt two tomatoes.
Xu Fei used a bag of clothes and said in a low voice: "Hurry up!"
"What did you touch?"
"An eggplant, a cucumber, two persimmons. ”
"They don't give us food if they have food, and they nibble on cabbage!"
Chen Xiaoxu was suddenly annoyed and said: "I heard that the crew pressed a lot of money, which is called cutting corners." ”
"Then you reflect the reflection. ”
"I'm not going. ”
Shh
Xu Fei didn't bother to pay attention, and returned upstairs lightly, separating. Hou Changrong and Wu Xiaodong didn't sleep, they were reading the script in their hands, and when they saw him come back, they hurriedly asked, "Have you gained anything?"
"There must be!"
He put his clothes in his pocket, "Keep your mouth tight, and I'll give you more food tomorrow." ”
Xu Fei cleaned up, and seeing that the two of them were still not sleepy, he simply opened the script and read it under the lamp.
In this era, the technology is backward, and there are no photocopiers, they are all oil rolls. It is a large box containing ink, and then take a roller similar to wool and dust, put the paper in it, and roll it to be a sheet.
The printed font is thick and black, smudge-prone, and has a distinct smell of ink - it should be lost by now.
He opened such a script, read it silently word by word, and recalled the plot of the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", which is indeed very different.
It is said that during the preparation of "Dream of Red Mansions", people from all walks of life held a 15-day meeting in Huilongguan on how to adapt the script.
The faction led by Zhou Ruchang supported the creative adaptation of the last 40 chapters, and the faction led by Feng Qiyong said that they would present the whole book in its entirety with 120 chapters.
The situation at that time can be described as a battle of words.
Because the last 40 episodes are Gao E's sequel, it is against Cao Xueqin's will, and it cannot be counted in the original book. In the end, all parties agreed with the crew's opinion, eight words: respect the original work and attach importance to the sequel.
So there was a script, Zhou Lei and Liu Genglu were responsible for the first 20 episodes, corresponding to the first 80 episodes. Zhou Ling is responsible for the last 7 episodes, which are adapted from the sequel.
So it's a total of 27 episodes of script. Xu Fei has this in his hand, and there are no last 7 episodes, but just by looking at the front, you can know how much the TV series has deleted.
For example, at the beginning, Jia Yucun hooked up with Jiao Xing, Yinglian was abducted by traffickers, Zhen's family and gourd temple were burned, Zhen Shiyin was down, etc., nothing.
It's not that it wasn't filmed, but it was finished, and a movie viewing party for old cadres was organized on it. The old cadre was very unhappy after watching a few episodes, and said that you have been acting for a long time, why haven't Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu come out yet?
Then it became the existing version, reducing the above content to half an episode, and Lin Daiyu directly entered Jiafu in the second half of the episode.
There is also a very pity that it is too illusory, according to Zhou Ling, it was the Ministry of Truth who spoke at that time, to the effect that Jia Baoyu pursues a free marriage and is an anti-feudal fighter.
What the hell is this human saying?!!!
Of course, no one understands it, you don't allow feudal superstition, so what's going on with "Journey to the West" and "Jigong"? Anyway, we don't understand, and we don't dare to ask......
The night was getting deeper and deeper, Hou Changrong and Wu Xiaodong read the script for a long time, mainly figuring out the roles they wanted to play and familiarizing themselves with the lines. When the two of them were a little tired and wanted to turn off the lights and sleep, they found that Xu Fei was still sitting at the table.
With a straight body and a pencil in his right hand, he writes and draws on the script. It's not the kind of simple character annotations, and even a few more pieces of paper are pulled up, which are densely packed.
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both saw that they were puzzled by each other.
Although this roommate is young, he doesn't dare to despise it at all, and he has many amazing behaviors on weekdays, and he doesn't know what he's doing.
............
April 10, 9 a.m.
After everyone finished breakfast, they didn't need to shout or urge, they automatically and consciously squeezed into the conference room, and spread out their small books one by one, which was very serious.
The table in front of it was removed, and there was only a sofa with a blackboard standing next to it to make room for space. There is also a tape recorder in front of the sofa, talking and recording at the same time, and it is Guo Xiaozhen (Shi Xiangyun) who is in charge of this matter.
Since the day before yesterday, some expert consultants began to give classes to everyone, and on the first day, screenwriter Zhou Lei gave a lecture on "Introduction to Red Studies". The next day was Hu Wenbin, a red scholar, who gave a lecture on "Overview of Red Studies at Home and Abroad".
Today, it is Mr. Deng Yunxiang, who talks about the folk etiquette in "Dream of Red Mansions".
Mr. Deng is a veteran of the red academic circle, not only "Dream of Red Mansions", but also has a great deal of research on the customs and customs of the north and south. He has lived in the magic capital for a long time, and he came here specially for the training class, and lived next door to Zhang Li - and then became a folk guide with the whole group.
Everyone waited for a while, and saw Wang Fulin helping the old gentleman into the house and sitting down on the sofa.
Deng Yunxiang was seventy years old, a little panting, and he slowly spoke when he was panting:
"Everyone knows that "Dream of Red Mansions" has no dynasties to examine, and Cao Xueqin deliberately blurred the background of the era and even the geographical area. For example, whether the location of Jia Mansion is in the south or in the north is still debated.
Cao Xueqin wants to hide the real thing, but she can't hide it in many details of life, especially the folk etiquette inside. For example, clothing, food, housing and transportation, sacrificial visits to friends, lantern riddle troupes, etc., we can still see a lot of clues.
Today we will not talk about complicated things, but about greetings. ”
He took a sip of water and continued: "In fact, the Dream of Red Mansions reflects a lot of flag man etiquette, such as the ninth time, Jia Zheng asked who was with Baoyu, and three or four big men came in outside, and called Qian'er to say goodbye......
Speaking of this, Mr. Deng stood up with the sofa, Wang Fulin hurriedly supported him, and saw the old gentleman personally demonstrate, "The left leg takes a step forward, the right leg is half kneeling, and the right hand is half clenched and the fist is stretched down, which is called beating Qian'er." The servant used to meet the master is a typical flag man salute. ”
“......”
Seeing this, Xu Fei couldn't help but move in his heart, in addition to taking notes, he tore open a page of paper, and drew a sketch with a few strokes.
Chen Xiaoxu tilted his head to see that a simple and vivid quirky villain, with his right leg half-kneeling and saluting, was exactly the action demonstrated by the old gentleman.
She blinked, wrote a note and threw it over. Xu Fei took a look, "This method is good, clear and clear, draw well after class, and let everyone learn too." ”
"It's not easy to get your compliment. He replied.
Chen Xiaoxu turned his head and ignored it again.
"There are thirty-one more times, Xiangyun has arrived, all the sisters, please say hello. According to the Han etiquette, the right hand is on the top and the left hand is on the bottom, half clenched into a fist, placed below the chest, and moved up and down, which is called Wanfu.
According to the etiquette of the flag man, put your hands flat on your knees, bend your knees and touch your body, which is called please touch An.
Is that a blessing, or is it a blessing? Cao Xueqin didn't write it clearly, you should consider it yourself.
These are greetings, not informal gifts, and the big gifts are to bow and kowtow. The most vivid is the sixty-second episode, Ping'er pays Baoyu a birthday greeting, you see how to write it......"
Some people were busy flipping through the books, but Mr. Deng didn't have any drafts, so he said directly: "Ping'er bowed down, Baoyu couldn't do it; Ping'er knelt down again, Baoyu was also busy kneeling, and the attacker hurriedly picked it up; and bowed again, Baoyu returned it." ”
He said to Wang Fulin, "You must pay attention to this paragraph, women are blessed first, men are blessed, and then kneel down and kowtow." One stroke, one kneeling, one kowtowing, followed by another one, this is done.
Don't kowtow, don't hit Qian'er, that's the common etiquette of the flag people, casually, I really want to shoot it to make people laugh. ”
Wang Fulin nodded again and again, and Deng Yunxiang called again: "Zhou Ling, Zhou Ling?"
"What about this!" Zhou Ling stood up slightly.
"One more thing, I saw a paragraph you wrote last time, kowtowing and cocking your ass, that's not right. Kowtowing and tilting the buttocks, indicating complete surrender, a very humble and lowly behavior, Dream of Red Mansions throughout the book, no one needs this, it must be changed. ”
"Write it down!" Zhou Ling said busily.
Mr. Deng's speech was very slow, and his voice was low, and the room was silent, for fear of missing a word. Dozens of pairs of eyes stared ahead, save for the soft sound of writing and the hoarse spin of the tape recorder.
“......”
After coming here for more than ten days, Xu Fei's favorite thing is to attend classes.
Zhou Lei, Hu Wenbin, Deng Yunxiang, Zhu Jiajun, Zhou Ruchang, Jiang Hesen, Wu Shichang, Qi Gong and so on. There is no remuneration, and the crew is embarrassed and can't afford to get a car.
The old gentlemen who have been over half a hundred years old have come all the way by bus, stay for lunch at noon, and then take the bus back.
"It's not appropriate to give priority to a foreign appointment, if you don't say so at that time, you should only let it go first. ”
"Tile and ice dissipation, inappropriate, changed to disintegration of ice and ......"
Word by word, I will scrutinize you, and I will teach you a logic by logic. Everyone knows that the opportunity is not easy, some people are not highly educated, and they don't understand it very well, but they also write it down on paper, go back and borrow a tape recorder, and then slowly figure it out by themselves.
Young people in their twenties are lively and active, but only in class, they are the most serious.
This is the person who does learning in this era, and it is also the person who listens to learning in this era.
Later, how could there be such a person who learned like this, and how could there be such a person who listened to it......
