Chapter 158: Pushing through the old and bringing forth the new
Lu Zi'an couldn't hold back after hearing it clearly, and immediately laughed.
Hearing the voice, Shen Mange took off his headphones and was a little embarrassed: "Brother Zi'an, why did you get up so early." β
Lu Zi'an subconsciously replied: "Because I'm sick......"
"......" Shen Mange was stunned, and puffed up: "Brother Zi'an, you have changed." β
"Haha, it's okay, why did you make your own breakfast again today? "But this egg is fried pretty well.
Shen Mange held the spatula with an angry face: "The breakfast shop downstairs is actually closed! This is so long before the Chinese New Year! It's really that they are too much, and they can do whatever they want if someone likes it!"
She paused and squinted at Lu Zi'an: "Brother Zi'an, you said it wasn't too much?"
Lu Zi'an nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's too much, it's too much." β
After breakfast, Lu Zian turned on the live broadcast.
To his surprise, the number of people in the live broadcast room turned out to be quite large.
Lu Zi'an said a little strangely: "Hey, don't you all have a holiday? I got up so early, I thought there would be very few people today." β
[If the earth doesn't explode, we won't take a holiday!]
[Actually...... I came to the mortal world to cultivate immortals, and this dark circle is proof of this. γ
[The leader of the Sun and Moon Sect has arrived, and you still don't kneel to greet him!]
[What are you blind, I'm the head of the Kunlun faction, did I say anything?]
These people are really interesting, Lu Zi'an said with a smile: "It turns out that they are all seniors, disrespectful and disrespectful, okay, I'm going to start testing whether the water puppet is successful." β
[Get out of the way!The master is going to start pretending to be B!]
After confirming that the paint had completely dried, Lu Zi'an carefully put the two high chairs together, and then put the wooden basin on it.
He pulled a hose over, and he inserted it into the hole and snapped it tightly.
"Wait a minute, I'll turn on the faucet......"
After the faucet is turned on, the water gushes up directly, it looks as if it is really a fountain, after controlling the impact of the water volume, the lotus flower on it is pushed, but it will not fall completely, with the water wave carrying the floating and sinking, away from the hustle and bustle, converging the clear petals, the faint fragrance, looking at it, the heart will involuntarily calm down.
The water spilled down the plank, and when the water in the basin reached a certain height, the puppets were lifted up, and the small wooden balls inside were washed up and down by the current, and the puppets began to jump up and down.
When there was already a lot of water, Lu Zi'an opened a small round hole on the other side and let the water flow out of here, and the bottom was connected with a cylinder.
Standing or sitting, each puppet is completely different, the sound of the water is bubbling, and the surrounding lanterns are also floating with the water waves.
It's still good-looking, but I always feel like there's something missing......
Lu Zi'an frowned and stared at this work for a long time, until the water in the bucket was almost full, and he turned off the faucet and replaced it with an empty bucket.
The water in the wooden basin gradually ran out, and Lu Zi'an remained motionless.
His father's statement of simplicity made sense, but he didn't fully agree with it.
How to say it, his grandfather and his father's thinking is somewhat limited, too self-esteem, he personally thinks that skill and skill, skill is the foundation, art is sublimation, the two should complement each other, and neither alone can become a real master.
No matter how subtle your mind is, it's not for nothing that you can't do it?
Just like his water puppet now, why don't you think it moves?
Lu Zi'an stretched out his hand and pushed the puppets, but the bottom was stuck, and they could only move up and down, not left and right......
In this way, the audience may feel very novel when they watch it for the first time, but they will feel it when they see it for the second time, but that's it, so every time he makes something in the live broadcast room, there are many viewers, but when it's done, it's done, and they leave after watching it, and the stickiness is very low.
This is the same as today's traditional cultural situation, in fact, it's quite embarrassing, you can't do it, others don't like it, it's too high-grade, it's too high-grade, others will only praise it for being very good-looking, but if you really want to say it, you can't say it.
If you can't go up or down, that's a bad heart.
How do you reach the soul? Of course, it is from the surface to the inside to understand it more deeply.
Lu Zi'an brought a chair over, stared at the wooden basin and fell into deep thought.
[What is the master doing? I'm taking off my pants, just show me this?]
[Shhhh γ
[Do you think he will cut wood or read a book later......]
Lu Zi'an's eyes were staring at the puppet, but his thoughts had already drifted far away.
The water puppets recorded in "The Relics of the Great Cause" are very dynamic and lifelike, and the water puppets are praised in words.
However, Liu Ruoyu's "Chronicles of the Middle" focuses on how delicate the water puppets carved from light wood are, and ends lightly with a slightly derogatory sentence: at first glance, it seems gratifying, but if it is done frequently, it also feels tedious and boring.
Therefore, if it is too complicated and too delicate to be known by many people, it is natural to get a commendation when you first contact it, and you feel that you have seen too much...... That's all.
Is there any way to properly complete this transition?
Let art really come to life, not just tasting?
He reached out and removed the tub and removed all the puppets from the top.
Carve out a number of wooden balls, each ball has taken out a hole, the diameter of the hole is 5 mm, the middle is relatively large, the two ends are smaller, insert the wooden rod in the middle of the two wooden balls, each end of the wooden pole has a small circular protrusion, the wooden pole can move freely after being clamped, but it will not fall out.
A small puppet is then attached to this pole, and the fishing line of the left and right hands is connected around the pole.
Placing the little puppet on the table, he gave it a gentle push.
The wooden ball rolls, the wooden pole follows the forward running and driving the fishing line, the puppet's hand will swing leisurely, the puppet is holding a horizontal flute, when the fishing line is pulled, it seems that it is really playing the flute, the puppet sways back and forth but will never fall, the clothes are fluttering, lifelike.
[Wow, this is okay, it can still move!]
γLeaning forward and closing back?Unlock a new pose......γ
γβ¦β¦ I don't want to take the train, conductor!Stop!I'm going to kindergarten!]
But Lu Zi'an didn't see this, he tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and his eyes lit up: "Yes, that's it!"
Such puppets reduce the difficulty, but can be widely used, put at home to make ornaments is also very exquisite, to children to make toys is also very good, especially amphibious, entertainment enhancement but also ornamental, such traditional culture must be more acceptable!
Why did the water puppets disappear? Is it really that the predecessors were too smart, and the later generations were too stupid to copy?
No, it's because of the choice of the times.
If you don't innovate and adapt to the development of the times, the cookie-cutter puppet performance will naturally be eliminated!
The water puppet itself has the nature of entertainment, after the launch of this skill, more promotion, digging deeper, combined with its history to launch a full set of puppets, exquisite workmanship and interesting at the same time, it is best to bring a booklet to explain, buy back to see and play, but also by the way to understand a traditional skills, edutainment, why worry no one likes?
