Chapter 2004 The Psychiatrist
"The literati in ancient China basically had to understand piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, not only to appreciate it, but also to practice it. Not to mention the children of a big family like King Jia Shixue, even the maids at home should also understand it. Some; so, if you want to play this play well, you must understand this knowledge." Well, it happens that I know all of these, so I will teach you all at once.
"First of all, let's talk about the qin. In "A Dream of Red Mansions", Daiyu and Baochai both played the qin. The qin was also the most important musical instrument in ancient China. Ancient books record that Fuxi made the qin, and there are also Shennong who made the qin, Huangdi made the qin, and Tang Yao made the qin. Legend has it that Shun set the Qin to five strings, King Wen added one string, and King Wu added another string to seven strings; it can be seen that the Chinese Guqin culture has a long history and is extensive and profound..." Without Shen Long speaking, Xicheng held a Guqin to help Shen Long put it away.
After explaining the background knowledge, Shen Long began to demonstrate, "It is impossible to learn to play the guqin in a short time, but the basic knowledge is still necessary to understand, first of all, the way to put the qin, the qin is not placed flat on the table... If you have the posture and fingering of playing the piano, you just need to learn how to style, so as not to reveal your secrets when shooting distant scenes..."
As for the actual operation, it is enough to let a professional violinist act as a stand-in. Many costume dramas in later generations love to play the Guqin, but they are often full of loopholes, and the violin is placed upside down. People can't complain.
Shen Long played a song "High Mountains and Flowing Water", and then began to talk about Go again, "Just like playing the piano, you don't need to learn how to play Go. There are still many differences between ancient Go and modern Go. For example, in ancient Go, white is usually black first, and in modern Go, black is usually black first. Place 4 chess pieces in each position, two in black and one in each, similar to the layout of diagonal stars, and in addition, ancient Go has no specific rules..."
This is also a place where many ancient dramas are easy to be misunderstood. When you are in a film and television drama with an ancient background, the protagonist plays chess with others, and it is definitely unreasonable to start playing chess without letting go.
"So what I want to teach you now is the etiquette of the ancient literati when playing chess, how to sit, how to take the chess pieces, how to put the chess pieces, there are sayings..." Shen Long stretched out two fingers to pick up the chess pieces and put them gently on the chessboard. On the chessboard, the movements were elegant and full of rhythm, which made these students feel the beauty of manners inherent in classical literati.
"That's Mr. Feng's girlfriend next to him, right? I really envy her for having such a boyfriend! Hey, if I can find a boyfriend who is one-third as good as Mr. Feng in the future, I will be thankful." The little girl bit her best friend's ear and said.
"Let's learn calligraphy next. That classmate has practiced calligraphy? Come up and cover it up for us?" Shen Long knew that there were really good calligraphy writers in the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions".
Zhang Lin, who played Xue Baochai, hesitated for a moment, but raised her hand. She practiced calligraphy hard when she was a soldier, and she was well-known in the art troupe. Most of Xue Baochai’s characters in the TV series were written by her own hand, and It was appreciated by the calligraphy consultant of the crew.
Shen Long asked her to cover it up, Zhang Lin thought about it, and wrote Li Qingzhao's song "Leaning on the door and looking back, but sniffing the green plum" in small letters with hairpin flowers. Shen Long looked at it and applauded, "Student Zhang's calligraphy has a certain Basic, the action of holding the pen is very standard, and the written characters are also very solid. If Zhang is interested in developing in this direction, he may become a calligrapher in the future."
"Let me write another one for you. How to hold the brush and how to move the brush, there are certain standards in calligraphy, but it is still slightly different when it comes to individuals..." Shen Long wrote down Jia Baoyu's writing in the calligraphy. The "Crab Poetry" written in the crab feast: Holding claws is more like osmanthus in the shade,
Spilling vinegar beats Jiang to madness. The gluttonous king and grandson should have wine, but the rampant son has no guts. The navel is cold and greedy and forgetful, and the fishy smell on the fingers is still fragrant. Originally, Poxian used to laugh and be busy all his life for the sake of the world's delicious food.
"Jia Baoyu is a nobleman. He has a certain foundation in calligraphy, but he has not practiced hard, so his calligraphy can see some spirituality, but there are some deficiencies in details..." Shen Long took this opportunity again I have popularized the knowledge of character and calligraphy characteristics for everyone, and wrote a variety of calligraphy with different styles as before.
Only then did Zhang Lin nod secretly. She just said that Mr. Feng's handwriting seems to be ordinary. It turns out that he imitated Jia Baoyu's handwriting. Looking at the later, one person can skillfully write many kinds of calligraphy with completely different styles, which shows that His calligraphy has reached a very high level.
"Finally, let's look at calligraphy and painting. As for the ancient literati, their favorite calligraphy and painting works are still different from those of ordinary people. What they like is literati painting, also known as 'Scholar-bureaucrat's freehand painting', which is different from meticulous painting; Resemblance in shape, emphasizing verve, emphasis on calligraphy, literature and the expression of artistic conception in the painting, it must have both character, knowledge, talent and thought... Most of the paintings hung in the Grand View Garden are of this kind.”
"However, there are differences when it comes to individuals. Daiyu and Baochai often create their own boudoir paintings. They are mainly themes such as leisurely flowers and quiet grass, insects and butterflies, and landscape ladies. The brushwork is neat and meticulous, and the design The colors are elegant and bright, the painting style is peaceful and tranquil, exuding a sense of idleness and wealth..."
"Of course, this is when the mood is good. With the development of the story, the mood of the characters is also changing. Later, when Daiyu painted plum blossoms, she was not so leisurely and calm. On the contrary, there was a sense of sadness. The style of painting will naturally change from time to time..."
After talking for a whole day, it was considered to let them temporarily understand the basic knowledge of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. After that, Shen Long didn't need to go out in person. Naturally, there were professional consultants to teach them how to hold a pen and how to move their fingers... Actors who play the piano and paint in TV dramas will also receive key training.
Before preparing to go home for the Spring Festival, Shen Long found Director Wang again and brought up another matter with him, "Director Wang, I think our production team still needs a consultant! Let the big guys start from now on with "" The characters in "Dream of Red Mansions" identify themselves and call each other, which is really helpful for them to understand the plot and perform better."
"However, it is easy to have problems in this way, that is, it is not easy to get out of the drama. Most of these are young and young girls, not as experienced as old actors, especially Lin Daiyu, who has a cold personality... at last It's best to ask a psychiatrist to prevent accidents." Hey, Shen Long doesn't want Xiao Chen to fall into the root cause of the disease.
