Chapter 122: The Four Divisions
Chapter 122 "The Picture of the Four Teachers"
After dinner, Kong Ping heard that Wang Yao was willing to participate in the movie, and happily kissed him on the face, but he didn't expect to leave 'incriminating evidence'. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info’
"Ahem, it's a misunderstanding. Wang Yao explained awkwardly.
"Have you eaten?" Aunt Sun asked with a smile.
"After eating, what did you eat at night. Wang Yao asked with a smile.
"West Lake vinegar fish. Mr. Big chuckled, "Do you know this allusion?"
Wang Yao's cheeks became more and more hot, the allusion to the vinegar fish in West Lake is that in ancient times, two fisherman brothers surnamed Song in Hangzhou, because of his sister-in-law's beauty, he was taken by the local bullies and killed his brother, and the younger brother was angry and went to the government to complain, but he didn't expect the government to be angry with the bullies, and when the younger brother returned home after being beaten, his sister-in-law cooked a meal for him and asked him to flee.
This roasted fish is sour and sweet, the burnt skin is still a little bitter, and the taste is very strange, and my brother is puzzled.
The sister-in-law said to him, "You must remember the taste of this fish, don't forget how your brother died, remember that your life is sweet, and don't forget the bitterness of the people being bullied and your sister-in-law and my hatred." ”
The younger brother was very moved after hearing this, remembering his sister-in-law's intention to escape from Hangzhou, and later took the test to become an official and came back to avenge the killing of his brother, severely punished the bully and corrupt officials, and later went to the banquet, and once again ate the sweet and sour fish, only to learn that it was his sister-in-law who was incognito, and later the younger brother resigned and took the sister-in-law home to make a living.
This story is an inspirational story, but because the ending is a little weird, and the folk sayings that circulated later, it is fun but the sister-in-law is connected in series, and it is often used to make fun of some peachy news, which is also a metaphorical joke.
Mr. Big obviously used this to tease Wang Yao, which made Wang Yao very embarrassed, "Vinegar fish is good, vinegar fish is good, vinegar softens the heart and cerebrovascular, hey, it's okay, I'll paint the three of them." ”
"If you're in a hurry, tidy up that stack of books. Mr. Hu Congwu said with a smile.
"No hurry, no hurry. Wang Yao smiled, moved a table from the back, spread paper, and began to paint, preparing to draw the scene of the three gentlemen burning incense, and the future is also a thought.
"My master is going to tell the story again?" asked Wang Yao as he composed the picture.
"I'm here. Jin Wensheng's voice came from the back hall, and after a while, he came in with a bird cage.
Wang Yao raised his eyes and said with a smile, "Master, everyone else is raising songbirds, why are you raising a nest of swallows?
"This is the little guy who fell from the swallow's nest in the backyard this morning and broke it. Jin Wensheng put the birdcage aside, wiped his hands with a towel, and sat down next to Mr. Big, "What are you drawing?"
"The Four Divisions". Wang Yao smiled with a splash of ink.
"Also listen to tongue twisters. Mr. Qigong smiled.
"I think of Mr. Zhao Yuanren's masterpiece. Jin Wensheng was stunned and said with a smile: "Shishi, the poet of the stone room, loves lions, and swears to eat ten lions." Shi's always looks at the lion in the market. Ten o'clock, suitable for ten lions suitable for the city. It's the right time, the right city. The clan regarded it as ten lions, and the arrow was powerful, so that the ten lions died. The clan is the corpse of ten lions, suitable for the stone room. The stone room is wet, and the envoy wipes the stone room. The stone chamber swab, the first taste of the food is ten lions. When eating, the first acquaintance is ten lions, and the real ten stone lion corpses. Trial release is a thing. ”
Jin Wensheng recited a tongue twister in one breath and is the most famous prophecy master in modern times, Zhao Yuanren wrote a story with the four sounds of "shi", and the story told was.
There was a poet whose family lived in a stone chamber, and he loved lions, and he swore to eat ten lions.
The surname Shi often goes to the market to see the lions. At ten o'clock there were exactly ten lions in the market. At this time, the surname Shi came to the market. When the man surnamed Shi saw that it was ten lions, he shot the lions with his bow and arrows, and killed all ten lions.
The man surnamed Shi carried the ten lions into the stone chamber. The stone chamber was very damp, so the surnamed Shi ordered the servants to wipe and clean the stone chamber. After the stone chamber was cleaned, the man surnamed Shi began to try to eat the ten lions.
When he ate it, he realized that what he thought was the corpse of ten lions was actually the corpse of ten stone lions. ’
This paragraph is enough to prove what it means to be a real genius, to write a complete story with Chinese characters of different levels of homophony, and it is extremely scary to think about it.
"If you practice playing boards like that, your mouth will be thick. Mr. Big chuckled, "But Zhao Yuanren is really smart." ”
"The five bodies fell to the ground, shocking. Wang Yao smiled while drawing, "By the way, I heard that Mr. Zhao has very high musical attainments?"
"He's all Western music? Mr. Big smiled, "At that time, I had to give us science how to use staves to express the score of Peking Opera, and then I pondered with Xiao Youmei for half a month, and finally gave up, and I couldn't listen to it after finishing it." ”
"Speaking of which, the composition of our opera is really too unrealistic. Wang Yao thought for a while and said.
"It's not easy to remember old plays, you can remember them, and you can remember them with simple scores, but there are more annotations than scores, which is too troublesome. Mr. Big shook his head, "The fundamental difference between opera and Western music is that opera conforms to the philosophical ideas of the Chinese nation, and the dialectical philosophy of 'virtual reality', 'rigidity and softness' and 'complexity and simplicity' allows you to understand, but Western music is different, it is an objective reproduction and imitation, allowing you to guess." ”
Zhao Yuanren studied a lot of foreign songs, and finally found that in the world, only the performance form centered on Chinese culture is freehand, and the others are mostly realistic. This is a big difference, figuration and abstraction are not easy to understand each other, so Western music is easy to touch, while opera is really confusing if it is not taught by word and deed. Mr. Big raised his eyebrows slightly.
"It's a test of legacy. Wang Yao said with a frown.
"But luckily, now there are video and sound recordings. Mr. Big smiled, "This is much more convenient, in terms of cultivating future generations, in the past, a master had at most one or so apprentices, and he had to have a heavy weight, or he really didn't have so much energy." Mr. Big thought for a while, "If you solve this problem, there will be more apprentices in singing, and maybe there will be two more big horns." ”
"You think too highly of me, how can I have that ability. Wang Yao smiled.
Wang Yao burned incense to paint, and the four old men sorted out their works, but there was a bit of literati taste, but it was a pity that there was no guqin accompaniment, otherwise the atmosphere might be better.
In the end, Wang Yao hurried to draw this realistic "Picture of the Four Teachers" before the four gentlemen went to bed.
Mr. Big and Mr. Qigong tasted it, and one of them said, "The taste is a little lighter." ”
Another said, "It's better to take pictures." ”
made Wang Yao very embarrassed: "Then is this still framed?"
"Framed, the photo must also have a frame. Mr. Big scoffed.
The corners of Wang Yao's mouth twitched, he finally drew one, and he was ridiculed.
Director Yang Fan's "Dream in the Garden" was filmed in an old house in Hangzhou, so Wang Yao didn't have to go to other places, and he was delivered by car every day.
The first time I came into contact with movie shooting, I was shocked by Wang Yao, a large group of people held all kinds of machines and equipment, the lines and plug-in boards on the ground of the ancient house can trip people to death, Wang Yao calculated, there are six cameras on, one camera with three masters, one main control and two auxiliaries, and there is a group of staff around who don't know what to do.
Two staff members took the white light version to light the actors, at least two cameras moved to shoot close-ups from various angles, one was just re-filmed, and what was even more bizarre was that there was a Dongying actress in the crew, and she was acting with Wang Zuxian in Dongying when she was playing.
Wang Yao deeply realized that movie actors are also very powerful, and the words spoken by the actor opposite can be answered fluently if they don't understand a word, and what is even more amazing is that there are emotional scenes...
"Dream in the Garden" is a twist of Tang Xianzu's "Peony Pavilion", "Peony Pavilion" is a novel of the Ming Dynasty, influenced by the different philosophies of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, with the Confucian feudal system as the background, the important turning point of the flower god represents Taoism, and the reincarnation of Du Liniang is the three-life theory of Buddhism.
This story perfectly interprets all of Tang Xianzu's efforts for feelings, and the 'Theory of Affection' runs through the whole text.
Tang Xianzu's supremacy of love was a good confrontation with the science of the Song Dynasty.
In the inscription of "The Peony Pavilion", Tang Xianzu expressed his theory.
'I don't know what to do, and I go deep. The living can die, and the dead can live. Those who are born and cannot be resurrected, and those who die and cannot be resurrected are not lovely. ’
He wants to express the true affection, beyond life and death, not knowing when to be born, not knowing when to die, higher than the worldly life, to achieve the true love of the spirit.
"The Peony Pavilion" uses the male and female protagonists' 'spring dreams without a trace' to form a strong contrast with waking up at the mercy of reality. 'Use heavenly principles to suppress human beings' own yearning for emotions.
The story is very good in the battle of reason, and the coldness and strength of the clearly expressed 'reason' make most people daunted, and those who really pursue love will run the risk that the world does not understand.
In order to show the power of 'love', Tang Xianzu endowed it with the ability to resurrect the dead and transcend life and death, and break through the shackles of 'heavenly principles', so there is a dream in "Dream in the Garden".
It is also because of this relationship that Du Liniang died depressed in the face of the cruel and cold reality, but after coming back to life, she was shocked by the Chaogang, and after being married by the Son of Heaven himself, Du Liniang followed the 'etiquette' that made her depressed and died, and asked the male protagonist to implement the words of the matchmaker of her parents.
This kind of transformation makes people face the reality directly, even if Du Liniang, who died once, and Du Liniang, who has become a ghost, still has no way to escape the shackles of 'etiquette'.
Let what should have been a satisfactory solution become a bloody reality again.
This is the reason why this play can be called the two peaks of theater history along with Shakespeare's "Hamlet".
Tang Xianzu didn't want to explain that his 'theory of supreme feelings' was the only correctness, he just wanted people to have one more choice when facing 'reason' and 'emotion', and the pursuit of freedom is the right of human beings and should not be dictated.
Even if 'affection' can't compete with 'reason', at least 'supreme affection' can be on an equal footing with 'heavenly reason'.
