Chapter 25 The Splendid Brocade

"We have a phone in the hallway of the actors' dormitory, I'll give you the number if you need it. ”

said that he would have to call to report his safety when he got home, can Su Changqing say that he doesn't need it?

He remembered that there was a phone in the corridor of the Renyi dormitory.

Many years later, Xu Fan said in an interview on the show that one night in 93, Brother Xiaogang called the dormitory to find Chen Xiaoyi for something, and the phone rang in the corridor for a long time, and she picked it up by mistake, so the two began to date.

It seems that Xu Fan is good at answering the phone.

Su Changqing wrote down the number: "When the phone rings, you don't necessarily have to run out to answer it, I will hang up after three rings, and you will know that I am home alive." ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Ding Jialuo is very diligent, obviously he drank but didn't rest, and Su Changqing was still writing scripts when he came back.

Computers are still teaching tools in China, completely unpopular, and even if there is, there is no suitable Chinese writing software, and many professional writers have deformed their handwriting.

Su Changqing knocked on the window: "Take it easy." ”

Ding Jialuo ignored it: "I have an inspiration, I have to write it down quickly, and forget it after sleeping." ”

It is happy to be recognized for what you like to do, and you die for your confidant.

Don't be so tired and die suddenly.

Ximenxiong's snoring came from the west wing.

I don't know why Director Simon has to come here to sleep, and also to be grounded?

Su Changqing had just entered the room when the phone rang, and Hu Ji called: "Why did the driver drive slower when he went back, it took five more minutes, and I didn't worry about it." ”

"I just entered the house, I drank too much beer, and the car stopped halfway through. ”

"Are you alright?"

It's not that it's spitting, what can happen when you stop and release water, is the bird flying?

"It's okay, it's okay. ”

The next morning, Ding Jialuo sat in the courtyard with a look of annoyance, and threw a few pieces of shredded paper on the ground: "Last night, my thoughts were like springs, and I got up this morning to see what was written?!"

Ximen Xiong sat on the side: "Did you not drink enough?"

"Get out!"

If it's not the menstrual period, then Kavin, Su Changqing also persuaded her: "Slow down, this is a hurdle, and if you slow down, you will pass it." ”

"It's not a can, it's a grave, it's a grave, I don't know how to write it down!"

If you don't know what to do, then you can sit here and guard the grave.

Du Keke brought soy milk fritters, and after eating, Su Changqing called fashion designer Chen Jin.

The person who answered the phone was a soft-voiced man who claimed to be Chen Jin: "I am Chen Jin, the splendid Jin." ”

Didn't you say female designers?

Su Changqing is a little weird, there was so much nonsense last night, why didn't he remind Chen Jin that he thought he was a woman, but he was actually a man?

No one who has been dealing with costume designers for a long time cares about this, knowing that Chen Jin is an inner woman and an outer man, Su Changqing's confidence in her has increased.

There are a few great costume designers who are not like this, and it is the delicacy of women combined with the creativity of men that makes for geniuses.

Su Changqing made an appointment for an interview, and Chen Jin promised to bring some works and designs in two hours.

"No. 16 Lotus Hutong, just find a bronze sign with a pattern. ”

Signboards always make a difference, and you can do without words.

Two hours later, Chen Jin came as promised, carrying a large bag of things.

She is a little shy in her early twenties, and Su Changqing has seen many mavericks, which is the most comfortable one.

There is no reluctant imitation between the sexes in Chen Jin, the characteristics of men and women are harmoniously integrated in her, the expressions and movements are very natural, the dress is retro and neutral, and it is difficult to distinguish between male and female, which is quite attractive.

And he is also good-looking, clean and tidy, which can only be said to make people get the wrong gender.

Ximen Xiong secretly asked Su Changqing: "Is this a man dressed as a woman or a woman dressed as a man?"

Su Changqing also secretly told him: "You are the art director, and you have a vicious eye, don't let people know that you can't tell the difference." ”

Since then, Ximenxiong has never expressed curiosity about her, whether it is a man dressed as a woman or a woman dressed as a man, the result is the same for him.

Chen Jin brought a few physical works and two usual design albums, and Su Changqing read them very seriously.

It can be seen that she is very talented, with a certain foundation in white drawing, watercolor and fine brushwork, and most of the albums are some costume modeling drawings, with traditional and improved fashions.

A package of real products is a variety of new Hanfu designed by her, all hand-embroidered and exquisite, and the sewing skills are first-class.

Su Changqing studied it carefully as if he was checking money, and he almost took a magnifying glass.

It's hard to imagine that there are still young people who can make traditional female celebrities so authentic, Su Changqing has been with several crews when he was in school, including costume dramas, and has seen the highest level of handmade costumes at present, although a large number of machines are used, they are still incomparable with Chen Jin's.

But Chen Jin is clearly trying to commercialize her new designs, and Su Changqing is skeptical that her work will be accepted by the market at the moment, and that she is an artist who was born at the wrong time.

Her ideas can be said to be conservative or too advanced, born two hundred years ago or twenty years later, I am afraid that now is an embarrassing time, just in time for the social atmosphere to lack cultural self-confidence and reject tradition.

But it's just right for costumes.

Chen Jin said that she is not very good at reading, since she was a child, she has followed her family to learn women's red handicrafts, and her ancestors have been weaving in Jiangnan for generations to sew clothes for Da Nei and yamen at all levels, and these skills are enough for her to spend most of her time.

This dedication is admirable, this is an unpopular business, and you can't do it without determination.

As she spoke, she opened another small package and took out two pieces of bird-patterned patches.

The complement is the pattern on the front chest and back of the official uniform, which is hand-embroidered, and the style of the complement in the Ming Dynasty was continued to be used by the Qing Dynasty, and the shape and content are generally the same.

"This is the brocade chicken complement of the Qing Erpin civil official, one was embroidered by my grandfather when he was weaving in Jiangnan, and the other was imitated by me. ”

It seems that her grandfather's hands and feet are not very clean, and the official things have become her family's ancestors.

It is not difficult to distinguish between the two pieces, one new and one old, but the pattern and embroidery quality are almost identical, and it is difficult to distinguish them.

Although it is a small piece of embroidery, the stitching method is quite complicated, and it may be difficult for other embroidery craftsmen to completely replicate it without authentic inheritance.

It is conceivable that if a few close-ups of her works are given in the movie, it can enhance a lot of style.

"It seems that you have the true inheritance of your ancestors, in addition to your improved Hanfu, have you ever made orthodox civilian costumes?"

"I've done a few pieces before, and the civilian clothes are relatively simple, even if you haven't done it at a glance. ”

"What about armor?"

"No...... No one needs it, that one really has to be built according to the ancient system, a set of twenty or thirty catties. ”

"No experience designing styling for film and television dramas?"

"No...... I've been in Beijing for more than half a year, and I've been helping people in Panjiayuan, and I've also picked a stall to sell new Hanfu designs I designed, but the business is ......."

Panjiayuan is the largest antiques market in Beijing, and there are a lot of old textiles that need to be repaired.

Hu Ji's introduction is amazing, I don't know how she found this tailor, I have to say that the vision is quite unique.

has no money, no status, no fame, and the master has to become a tailor.

To be honest, Su Changqing admired Chen Jin's talent, flipped through her album and muttered for a long time, and then said a nonsensical word: "Our studio has signed four models. ”

Chen Jin: "Oh?"

"I'm sure I'll sign more in the future, and you've never been on the runway, have you?"

"No, I saw it on TV. ”

Su Changqing looked a little absent-minded: "The catwalk is also a stage, two meters wide, usually about fifteen meters long, and models walk around on it. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Of course, a model has to have clothes, and before my models didn't have decent clothes, they spent most of their time in swimsuits. ”

Du Keke glanced at him, what nonsense is this talking about?

Chen Jin understood at this time: "You want me to design clothes for models?"

"That's for the future, you still need some training," Su Changqing had already thought clearly at this time: "I can hire you to join the costume team, participate in the production of the movie "The Princess's Decision", and continue to make clothes for Ouchi and officials, but this is a short-term job, and I am afraid that I will have to go back to Panjiayuan to practice after the filming." ”

Chen Jin is very happy that he can finally show his talents.

However, those who can do one thing to the extreme are smart people, and of course they can hear what Su Changqing said.

She was also very cooperative, smiling bitterly and pitifully: "To be honest, the stall can't hold on anymore." ”

So Su Changqing said logically: "I have a suggestion, you can consider it." ”
