Chapter 288 Xia Yan (4000+ chapters, please subscribe~)

"It's finally here!"

Fang Shu rubbed her neck and sighed.

The specific date for the Golden Rooster Awards and the Hundred Flowers Awards is May 31st. There are still two days before this date, and Wu Jianye and others have arrived in Quancheng.

The current Quancheng Railway Station is the most important building in modern Quancheng, and also a landmark building in the commercial port area of ​​Quancheng. It was designed by German architect Hermann Fischer and was built in 1908. It is a group of strong Baroque style Gothic buildings.

Li Xiaoli is taking pictures of the scenery here with a camera now.

After everyone came to Quancheng, they were naturally received by the organizer of the awards ceremony, and they were taken to Quancheng Hotel, which is the designated hotel for those who came to attend the awards ceremony.

The official awards ceremony was held at the gymnasium in Quancheng.

"Everyone take a break first, if you want to go out for a stroll, please say hello in advance!" Wu Jianye said to everyone.

He is still living in the same room as Tian Zhuangzhuang.

"Zhuang Zhuang, how is your film preparation going?" Wu Jianye asked.

While packing his luggage, Tian Zhuangzhuang said, "It's almost there, and the filming will probably start next month!"

After packing his luggage, Tian Zhuangzhuang half-lyed on the bed and said, "I'll say goodbye to you in advance. The filming location is in Mongolia. I guess I won't see you again for a few months."

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Mongolian Province is a good place, roasted whole lamb is definitely a must!"

Wu Jianye naturally understood Tian Zhuangzhuang's hobby.

Tian Zhuangzhuang curled his lips, "I thought everyone was a local tyrant just like you. I'm ready to fight hard and plainly!"

"Haha, that won't help you!"

Then the two chatted about Grange's new movie. "The Hunting Ground" is the first feature film independently directed by Grange. The previous "Little Courtyard" and the like are all short stories.

And when Wu Jianye heard Tian Zhuangzhuang's thoughts on this movie, he knew why so many people said that he couldn't understand this movie.

"I think movies should minimize dialogue, because the image itself can narrate a lot of emotions and atmospheres, and it should let the audience feel, rather than tell the story to the audience."

"At the same time, the movie wants to express questions about human beings, beliefs, life and death"

Tian Zhuangzhuang saw Wu Jianye's frown tightly. If it was someone else, Tian Zhuangzhuang would not care what the other person thinks, but Wu Jianye is different, not because he won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival, but because In the cooperation with Wu Jianye, he really recognized Wu Jianye's talent.

"Is there a problem?"

"Yes, and it's very big!" Wu Jianye said bluntly, and they didn't need any politeness with Tian Zhuangzhuang: "Your filming like this is a bit too idealistic. Dialogue is an extremely important factor in a movie. But you have to promote the development of the story through emotions and atmosphere, which is a bit too obscure, and the audience may not be able to understand it!"

"Isn't that how it was shot in the silent film era?"

"The silent film era was caused by the immaturity of film technology. Now you look at the audience who will watch silent films. After all, film is a medium for the director to express his ideas to the audience. Now you But this passage was made into a single-plank bridge."

"No, there are also many metaphors in "Raise the Red Lantern". The progress of the story is conveyed through various atmospheres and colors. Why don't you say that your movie audience can't understand it?"

"That's because the movie "Raise the Red Lantern" is detailed enough, and the background of the characters through the dialogue is also very clear. According to what you said, I don't like your movie very much anyway!"

Wu Jianye said seriously.

Tian Zhuangzhuang also argued with reason, thinking that his point of view was correct, and soon the quarrel between the two attracted the attention of other people. Many people ran over after hearing the quarrel between the two. There was a quarrel.

"what happened?"

Fang Shu ran over and asked worriedly.

On the other hand, Zhao Fei was already familiar with the quarrel between the two, leaning on the door frame, he said nonchalantly: "It's okay, the two must have quarreled again because of the movie, it will be fine in a while!"

In the afternoon, the two of them followed the entire production crew and started to stroll around Quancheng like nothing happened.

The reason why Quancheng is called Quancheng is because there are many springs in the territory, with "72 famous springs", known as "lotus on four sides and willows on three sides, one city with mountains and half lake city".

The most famous of them is the Baotu Spring that once appeared in Wu Jianye's elementary school textbook.

Baotu Spring Eye is located in front of Luoyuan Hall in Baotu Spring Park.

When everyone came to the main gate of Baotu Spring Park, Zhao Fei showed off his knowledge to everyone, pointing to the three gold characters of "Baotu Spring" on the main gate and said: "This is the imperial pen of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. Some people call this the first gate of Chinese gardens!"

"It is rumored that Emperor Qianlong conferred Baotu Spring as the 'No. [-] Spring in the World' because of the mellow and sweet tea brewed in Baotu Spring during his southern tour. This is also the origin of Baotu Spring's name!"

Li Xiaoli asked curiously: "Then what was the name of Baotu Spring before?"

Zhao Fei's expression froze, and then he said: "You don't care what he was called before, as long as you know what his name is now! Why are there so many at such a young age?"

"Cut!" Li Xiaoli gave Zhao Fei a blank look: "If you don't know, just say you don't know, and you're still making excuses here."

Zhao Fei was eager to regain his face, and shouted with a reddish face: "Who said I don't know anymore, I told Lao Wu before, if you don't believe me, you can ask Lao Wu."

Everyone looked at Wu Jianye curiously, and Wu Jianye also saw Zhao Fei who was hiding behind the crowd put his palms together and stretched out a finger. Zhao Fei nodded quickly.

"Old Wu, Zhao Fei really told you?" Li Xiaoli looked at Wu Jianye curiously.

"Yeah, I didn't expect Xiao Feifei to be so knowledgeable. If he hadn't told me, I really wouldn't know the origin of Baotu Spring's name!"

"Old Wu, tell everyone how I told you, there will always be people who don't believe me!" Zhao Fei said immediately.

"Baotu Spring did not have a name at first, because Baotu Spring was the source of the ancient Luoshui, so in history, "Luo" was often used to refer to Baotu Spring. Li Daoyuan, a geographer in the Northern Wei Dynasty, wrote in "Shui Jing Zhu" Said: "The Luo River flows out of the southwest of the old city of Licheng County, the source of the spring is frenzied, and the water gushes like a wheel. "Later, because there was an Eying Temple built on the spring to worship Ehuang and Nvying, it is also commonly known as Eying Water."

"When Zeng Gong in the Song Dynasty was the magistrate of Qizhou, he named Baotu Spring "Jianquan". It is written in "卬": "The boiling threshold spring is so deep. "However, the people in Quancheng abandoned the name "Janquan" because it was too elegant. Regarding this matter, Yuan Haowen of the Jin Dynasty recorded in "Quancheng Travel Notes": "In modern times, there is a prefect who changed the name of the spring to Kanquan, and set up a threshold. Quanfang, in terms of poetry.However, the natives are still in the same mood. "People in Quancheng still call it "Bangliu Spring". The name "Bangliu" has also derived many similar names, and "Baotu" is one of them."

"Zeng Gong recorded in "Qizhou Ertangji": "From the north of (Kirma) Cliff to the west of Licheng, it is covered for fifty miles, and there is a spring gushing out, which may be several feet high. The name of the person next to it is " Baotu Spring". The so-called "Baotu" means jumping and rushing."

"It was not until Qianlong that it was officially named Baotu Spring."

Now Baotu Spring is similar to the former Lin’an West Lake, and there are not many tourists. When Wu Jianye and others came to the spring, there were only three or five people visiting here. As for the red pillars on both sides of the pavilion, there are no couplets. The stone tablet of the lake is still there, as is the stone tablet of 'Baotu Spring' next to it.

Like a curious child, Li Xiaoli saw a dot on the Baotu Spring Stone Stele and shouted: "Look, there is a dot missing."

Fang Shu beside him also said curiously: "Yeah, why is there a little less?"

Just now Zhao Fei showed off for a while, and everyone regarded him as an encyclopedia. Li Xiaoli asked, "Zhao Fei, what's going on?"

Zhao Fei said proudly: "I know this. According to legend, in ancient times, the water of Baotu Spring gushed up to several feet, and several standing monuments were knocked down and could not stand. In the Ming Dynasty, the prefect of Quancheng asked Hu Zanzong, the governor of Qilu, to write The monument was erected, because Hu Zanzong was a native of Shangyu in Gansu Province and an official of the frontier. The prefect of Quancheng wanted to use his pen to mark the name of Baotu Spring and suppress the surging water of Baotu Spring. Beautifully written."

"After the three characters of Baotu Spring were written, a good stone material was selected to engrave the stele. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the officials of the prefect of Quancheng erected the stele engraved with the three characters of Baotu Spring at the source of Baotu Spring. A dot on the cover of the word treasure is missing.”

"At that time, the common people said that this point was washed away by the vacated Baotu Spring water and rushed to Daming Lake, and some of it was left on the "Ming" character on the stone tablet of Daming Lake, so the "日" character in the "Ming" character There is an extra horizontal line on the side, and it has become the current eye!"

"So that's the case. I didn't expect there to be such a story in it." Li Xiaoli nodded, then patted Zhao Fei on the shoulder and praised: "Zhao Fei can do it, I didn't expect you to know a lot!"

Zhao Fei nodded reservedly, and smiled complacently: "It's okay, low-key, low-key."

Fang Shu tilted her head beside her, and suddenly said: "No, didn't you say that the name Baotu Spring was only named during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty? Why did someone nominate 'Baotu Spring' in the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhao Fei: "."

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "What Zhao Fei talked about was actually one of the legends. There are many other legends about the inscriptions on Baotu Spring and Daming Lake. For example, there is another legend that Lu Dongbin once practiced in Baotu Spring. One day, after Lu Dongbin got drunk, he was very happy, so he practiced spells in Baotu Spring. With a light flick of the floating dust in his hand, he brushed the point on the treasure cover with the word "Tu" on the Baotu Spring stone tablet to "Tu". The word '日' in the word 'Ming' on the Daming Lake' stele is on it."

"There is another allusion that the queen mother stepped on her foot. Anyway, there are different opinions."

clap clap clap!
At this moment, applause came from behind Wu Jianye and the others. Wu Jianye and the others turned around and saw the visitor, and hurried forward to say hello.

"Mr. Xia, Mr. Yuan, Mr. Zhang, why are you here?"

It turned out that Xia Yan, Yuan Wenshu, Zhang Junxiang and others were standing behind Wu Jianye and others.

As seniors in the Chinese literature and art circle, and the judges of this year's Golden Rooster Awards, Xia Yan and others have a very high status in the country, especially Xia Yan is the same generation as Zhou Shuren and others, Wu Jianye and everyone naturally want to address them as teachers.

"You are Xiao Wu, right? I watched your "Raise the Red Lantern", and I personally like it very much." Xia Yan was over 80 years old at this time, and his figure looked a little thin, but it could be vaguely seen that when he was young, Also a big handsome guy.

"Thank you, Teacher Xia, we will continue to work hard!" Wu Jianye said modestly.

Simply saying one thing can explain Xia Yan's current influence in the country.

After the filming of Tian Zhuangzhuang's "Zhasa in the Hunting Field" was finished, it was sent to China Film Group for approval. After seeing the movie, the approval leader of China Film Group said that he couldn't understand it, so it was rejected, and there was no chance of it being released.

Later, Xia Yan found out about this movie, and after watching it, he immediately expressed his appreciation for it, so he ordered the leaders of China Film Group to re-examine the movie.

This is Xia Yan's influence in China!
"Xiao Wu, then tell us, what is the origin of the word Baotu Spring that you are most inclined to?" Xia Yan looked at Wu Jianye with a smile, and there was a hint of assessment in his eyes.

Wu Jianye said with a smile: "I am more inclined to the theory of philology and calligraphy aesthetics."

"Oh yeah, come tell us about it!"

"Shuowen" said: "Suddenly, the dog comes out of the hole temporarily. 'In ancient characters, '宀' means a house, 'xue' means an animal's nest, 'temporary' means suddenly, and 'sudden' means a dog suddenly ran out of its nest.Therefore, its conventional writing method is "upper acupoint and lower dog". There is a different writing of the character '突', and the lower part is written as '大'.Some people think that the omission of the word "yi" does not mean that the omission of the word "tu" is two completely different radicals.Then the upper dots of the character 'Tu' can be omitted. In fact, examples of the omission of dots on the upper part of the character 'Kong' can be seen in silk scripts, and there are many Chinese and Indian seals.Obviously, dots can be omitted on the cover of the acupuncture point, and the word 'Tu', which omits the upper dots, clearly appeared in Chinese and Indian seals.Therefore, the word "Tu" in Taetuquan is written differently, omitting the point of the hole treasure cover. This writing method makes sense in philology. "

"As for the word '日' next to the word 'Ming' on Daming Lake with an extra horizontal line, it actually means the same as 'Sudden'."

"As for the aesthetics of calligraphy, it's even more obvious. Teacher Xia and you are here, so I won't play tricks!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

"Haha, I didn't expect young people to know so much now, not bad." After hearing Wu Jianye's description, Xia Yan and others let out a happy smile again.
