Chapter 82: Sharp Eyes
The description of Sun Wukong's fiery eyes in the original text of "Journey to the West", if Wukong fans have seen it, they will definitely be disappointed, although it is also refined in the gossip furnace of Taishang Laojun, but it is not so powerful.
What is said in the original book is: Sun Wukong was escorted to Tushi Palace by Liuding Liujia and put in the gossip furnace. There was a raging fire in the furnace, Sun Wukong drilled his body in the Xun position, this position has wind and no fire, but the smoke is particularly large, after a long time, the eyes are red, make an old eye disease, called the fire eyes.
That's pretty much it...... Pink eye.
Of course, the script can't be written like this, after all, to beautify Sun Wukong's fierce appearance, if you really make two big red eyes, it will be scary enough, so in the script, strengthen the power of fiery eyes, insight into thousands of miles, and be good at recognizing demons.
Especially when it comes to the specific storyboard script, there are more portrayals of fiery eyes, and it can be said that the focus of Sun Wukong's many close-up scenes is on those eyes.
But Zhang Jinlai is not only highly myopia, but also has serious astigmatism, just this look, how can he be sharp-eyed?
Gotcha!
Now the reasons have been found, no wonder when filming, I always feel that Zhang Jinlai's eyes are not quite right, not only is he godless, but he can't always find the focal length, which looks very empty.
There is also the problem of hurting people, he can't even see the actors in the play clearly, and it's strange if he picks up sticks indiscriminately and doesn't hurt people.
What do you do now?
Wearing contact lenses can solve the problem of playing, but there is no god in the eyes, which is not something that a pair of contact lenses can solve.
After explaining his situation, Zhang Jinlai's heart was also full of apprehension, for fear that because of myopia, Director Yang Jie would take off his role again.
"Xiao Gu, Director Yang's side...... How is it said? ”
After finishing work that day, Zhang Jinlai took off his makeup, and he didn't even bother to eat dinner, so he went to Gu Bei's room.
If it were in the past, according to his introverted personality, he wouldn't have visited the door.
Every day, I either read the script or ponder the performance in the mirror.
Gu Bei looked at Zhang Jinlai, thought for a moment, got up and said, "Let's go out for a walk and talk while walking." ”
Zhang Jinlai nodded, his mood became even more depressed, and he wondered in his heart whether Director Yang Jie was already planning to replace him, so it was not good to say it to his face, so he entrusted it to Gu Bei.
The two of them came out of the ancient Taoist temple, and they finished work relatively early today, and it was not dark at this time, and they went down the mountain road to a pavilion.
"Teacher Zhang, you don't have to have so much pressure, Director Yang really hides ...... from you"
Gu Bei said, and raised his hand to Zhang Jinlai's eyes.
"It's really a little dissatisfied, but I won't change you because of this, during this time, Director Yang is still very satisfied with your performance."
Hearing Gu Bei say this, Zhang Jinlai breathed a sigh of relief, but the problem was still not solved.
When he returned to his residence just now, he also looked at the mirror for a long time, he didn't think it before, but after being pointed out by Director Yang Jie today, he also found that there was indeed no god in his eyes.
"What we should do now is solve the problem."
Zhang Jinlai smiled bitterly when he heard this, how to solve this?
If the performance is not up to standard, he can improve it through the help of others and his own efforts, but his myopia is ......
If it could be solved by surgery, he would rather go with a knife.
But I really haven't heard of a place where there is a cure for the godless in the eyes.
Wait a minute!
Zhang Jinlai looked up at Gu Bei, although he and Gu Bei didn't have a lot of contact, but they often heard people from the crew mention Gu Bei, and they all said that he was a very methodical person.
"Xiao Gu, you...... Can you help me? ”
Help?
How can it help?
For a whole afternoon, Gu Bei was also pondering about this matter.
But in the interview with the crew of "Journey to the West" that I watched in my previous life, no one said how Zhang Jinlai, who was short-sighted, became sharp-eyed!
No god in the eyes?
Gu Bei suddenly remembered a little fable - Ji Chang learned to shoot.
"Teacher Zhang, have you ever heard of a fable called Ji Chang to learn to shoot?"
Zhang Jinlai was stunned and shook his head blankly.
If Handan is a toddler, people are worried about the sky, buy pearls and the like, he has heard people say, but what kind of thing is Ji Chang learning to shoot?
There are not many people who really know this story, probably about the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a man named Ji Chang, who wanted to learn archery from the sharpshooter Feiwei, and then Feiwei told him when to look at things without blinking before he could learn archery.
After Ji Chang went home, he didn't go to work to make money, he lay under his wife's loom all day as a salted fish, looking at the shuttle, and two years later, even if the tip of the awl was about to pierce his eyelids, he would not blink.
Then Ji Chang ran to find Feiwei, but Feiwei said that this is not enough, and when the time comes, you can see small things as clearly as big things, and then you can learn archery.
Ji Chang went home stupidly again, hung a lice on the window with the hair on the tail of the ox, stared at it all day and night, and after three years, the lice became as big as a millstone in his eyes.
Then he went to find Feiwei, and Feiwei told Ji Chang with a smile that Ji Chang had mastered all the mysteries of archery.
Ji Chang felt that he was invincible in the world, but there was Feiwei who was as famous as him, so he wanted to kill Feiwei, the two competed, and finally hugged each other and cried without knowing why, Ji Chang also recognized Feiwei as his godfather.
This fable tells people not to play with people, otherwise they will be killed.
Belch......
Of course, the final summary is nonsense, and the meaning of this fable is that people must be persistent in what they do.
Gu Bei and Zhang Jinlai said this, of course, they didn't let Zhang Jinlai go under the loom to raise the corpse, nor did they stare at the lice for two or three years, even if Zhang Jinlai had such a big determination, the crew couldn't wait.
But......
"Maybe we can try it."
Zhang Jinlai was stupid after hearing this, how to try this?
Subconsciously touched his body, he is a clean person, he has to take a bath every day, there is not a single lice on his body, and if he talks about the loom, there is no place to touch it now!
"I don't mean to make you like Ji Chang, people are here to learn archery, you are to be able to have a god in your eyes, and you have to be smart."
The general direction is there, and now we have to find a way to find a training project for Zhang Jinlai.
Gu Bei thought again that when he watched "Journey to the West" in his previous life, every time Sun Wukong thought about something, his eyes would move quickly from side to side.
"Teacher Zhang, you look at my fingers."
Gu Bei suddenly raised a finger and put it in front of Zhang Jinlai.
Zhang Jinlai didn't know what Gu Bei was going to do, but now that people were clearly trying to help him, since this was the case, then do it.
"Your eyes follow my fingers back and forth, be careful not to move your shoulders, and don't shake your head back and forth, understand?"
What are you going to do?
Zhang Jinlai was full of doubts, but he still nodded obediently.
"Let's go."
Gu Bei said, his fingers swayed back and forth left and right in front of Zhang Jinlai, at first at a constant speed, and then gradually increased the speed.
Zhang Jinlai was able to keep up at first, but soon the rhythm was out of order, and within a minute, he felt that his eyes were dry and he quickly stopped.
"No, no, I'm fainting."
Gu Beicai didn't care if Zhang Jinlai was dizzy or not, it was really interesting to see his eyes rolling back and forth just now.
"Teacher Zhang, don't say no, I thought it was quite effective just now, so let's go back, let Teacher Ma or Teacher Yan cooperate with you, and practice according to this method."
This method can make Zhang Jinlai's eyes smart, but what about the problem of godlessness?
Gu Bei used his brains again, it would definitely not be possible to stare at lice like Ji Chang, it was easy to stunned people, but if it was ......
"You go back and light a candle in the house, and then stare at the flame, when you can be like Ji Chang, look at the flame without blinking, it is estimated that it will be about the same."
What a bad idea!
Zhang Jinlai slowed down for a long time, finally stopped his tears, listened to Gu Bei, and asked him to go back to stare at the flame of the candle.
This......
"Xiao Gu, can this work?"
Gu Bei spread his hands: "If it doesn't work, you have to try it!" ”
"Xiao Gu, is Xiao Gu over there?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Bei heard someone shouting at him, and it was Li Chengru who heard the voice.
"Brother Li, what's wrong?"
Hearing the response, Li Chengru ran over quickly.
"Director Yang is looking for you, tell you in advance, I saw it just now, Director Yang's face is not quite right, you should be careful."
Gu Bei was confused, he had been working very hard recently, and he hadn't messed with Mrs. Yang, what could it be?
"Okay, I know, what's that, Mr. Zhang, try it when you go back, just in case...... It works! ”
"Huh? Okay, okay, I'm ...... Try it. ”
Before Zhang Jinlai finished speaking, Gu Bei followed Li Chengru away.
Only Zhang Jinlai was left standing alone in the gazebo, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses.
Although Gu Bei's ideas were quite nonsense, he still decided to give it a try.
There is no better way, Gu Bei's idea is indeed quite rancid, but it is also a way after all!
Besides, Gu Bei is here, and he returned to the ancient Taoist temple with Li Chengru.
"Go by yourself, I won't accompany you."
Mrs. Yang is obviously not in a beautiful mood, and Li Chengru is still leaning forward at this time, isn't it unpleasant!
Go on your own.
Gu Bei just now quickly told him what the crew had done after coming to Qingcheng Mountain, and made sure that there was nothing wrong with him, so he directly knocked on Yang Jie's room.
"Director Yang, you're looking for me!"
Yang Jie's expression was indeed not very good, and her eyes looking at Gu Bei were a little complicated.
"Sit down!"
Gu Bei agreed, pulled over a stool and sat down, waiting for Mrs. Yang's next step.
"Just now, I went down the mountain to make a phone call."
It turned out to be a phone call.
After the crew finished work just now, Gu Bei saw Yang Jie and Peng Li going down the mountain together, thinking that they were going to buy something, but they didn't expect to make a phone call.
The place is inaccessible, and the only telephone in the vicinity is in an office halfway up the mountain.
It takes more than 40 minutes to make a round trip.
"Forget it, I'll tell you directly, the station will inform you to return to the capital as soon as possible, and there will be another appointment for the time being."
Belch?
What's that?
Back to the capital?
Another appointment?
Am I being fired from the crew?
