How did I become an old artist?

Chapter 142 Once stepping into the picture scroll, one day dreams back to a thousand years

On the stage, the lights spilled.

Zhao Chen was standing in front of a table, wearing a Chinese tunic suit, and was bending over to study the history books carefully.

His expression is focused and his demeanor is generous, just like a researcher who seeks truth and ignorance.

The effect of the stage presentation is perfect.

Then, the lights flickered on and off, and there were figures of dancing girls passing by him.

Zhao Chen raised his head, puzzled, and then, the lights that enveloped him suddenly dimmed.

This is the opening chapter of the stage play. Zhao Chen, as the scriptwriter, although there are not many scenes, is the key to wearing this stage play.

After the lights dimmed, Zhao Chen would step down immediately.At this time, the light hit another person.

That person is the actor of the painter Wang Ximeng, wearing an ancient costume, holding a brush in his hand, and is painting something on the scroll to his heart's content.

Then, background music played, and the recitation of a short poem came from the stage.

"No name, no money, so far, the volume has been green for thousands of years, and the mountains and rivers are boundless."

Then, the stage performance begins.

The shocking dance was displayed under the extremely tense performance of the dancers. The dancing time was very long. After a dance, the dancers retreated one after another.

Then, the stage went dark, and the searchlights illuminated Zhao Chen's figure.

He admired the culture of the Song Dynasty around him, and his face was full of excitement and excitement.

Zhao Chen's expression was very accurate.

Under the stage, the assistant director said next to the chief director Su Jinwen: "Director, has this Zhao Chen studied acting? The expression of emotion is really good, as if he really saw the culture of the Song Dynasty."

Su Jinwen didn't expect such a surprise, "Indeed, I didn't expect it either, it's all right now."

With Zhao Chen acting as a stringer, this stage play is very short.

The scene he performed was a museum researcher who traveled through the Song Dynasty and witnessed the process of Wang Ximeng's creation of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".

At this moment, Wang Ximeng was lying on the scroll, seeming a little tired.

The scene designed by the director team is that Zhao Chen puts a cape on Wang Ximeng.

This scene feels a little gay.

However, it can also be seen as the common love for art of modern people and ancient people, and it is the abstract expression of the dance art "Only This Green".

From the perspective of stage art, this feeling is very good.

Then, the lights dimmed and a second, more intense dance took place.

It is a large stage play involving seven different dances.

It includes seven chapters: "Unfolding the Scroll, Asking the Seal Characters, Singing the Silk, Searching for Stones, Washing the Brush, Quenching the Ink, and Entering the Painting".

Since it is the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, not all the chapters will be shown, and it will be updated into a large-scale and complete stage play to tour the country.

Now there are only two ends.

There are many bigwigs in the audience.

Including the chief director Su Jinwen, the composer of the TV series "Langya Bang" and "The Pretender", the main creative team of the opera "Turandot", and the expert consultant of the Palace Museum.

The resources mobilized by the programs of the provincial Spring Festival Gala are very considerable.

At present, this program plans to use Zhao Chen as a publicity point for publicity.

Because stage dancers are generally very low-profile, many people can't even name a stage dancer they know.

Zhao Chen didn't have many roles, but he performed very well.

As the most famous young generation in the art world, Zhao Chen's popularity is now very wide.

Moreover, this program is indeed dedicated and worthy of promotion.

Of course, the program of the Spring Festival Gala does not need any fanfare publicity, just write the names of the performers when the program list is announced.

The programs are still being formulated and selected, and there is still some time before the announcement.

From now on, Zhao Chen's life will be much more leisurely.

After several rehearsals of the dance, it is confirmed that there is no problem, so there is no need for such frequent rehearsals.

However, dancers still have to practice every day.

Dancing is really hard.

After Zhao Chen finished his audition on the stage, the dancers surrounded him one after another.

These girls are all dressed in the simple costumes of the Song Dynasty and painted with exquisite makeup.

Modern makeup is much more beautiful than ancient makeup, and the skin of modern girls is also well maintained, so all of them are very beautiful.

"Brother Chen, can we take a picture together?"

"We want autographs!"

"I love your video so much, it's so well done!"

These girls were excited and said to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen didn't expect to be so popular, so he nodded and smiled: "No problem, I'll be here for a long time."

Some dance screenwriters and directors nearby were also surprised when they saw this scene.

Because in everyone's impression, it seems that young girls like traffic stars.

Zhao Chen's videos are all focused on craftsmanship, but they are very artistic. Some transitions and soundtracks in the videos are very beautiful, so there are many people who like his videos.

Unexpectedly, people who focus on traditional culture will have such a high popularity.

"Don't the little girls nowadays like singers and stars?" An assistant director beside him said with emotion.

"It seems that the times are changing. When I was doing the show, I found out that the fans of several young idols were paid for. In fact, not many people watch them." Another screenwriter said.

"In the self-media era, there are too many excellent people, and people's aesthetics have also improved."

"Traditional things, not just that!"

Everyone was discussing.

Zhao Chen took a group photo with the dancers.

He looked at himself and some girls in Song Dynasty costumes in the camera, feeling a little emotional for a moment.

That strange sense of age came to my face.

He wears modern clothes, while modern people wear the ancient clothes of the Song Dynasty.

After the photo was taken, the dancers waved him goodbye.

After that, Zhao Chen discussed some details about his performance with the main creative team of the dance.

For example, what is the shape of the objects visited on the table of the painter Wang Ximeng, and where should Zhao Chen's porcelain be placed.

In these aspects, Zhao Chen put forward a lot of opinions and views.

His opinions often hit the nail on the head.

For example, the style of pen, ink, paper inkstone and candlestick, the shape of drawing paper and so on.

The creative team was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Chen's opinion is so sharp.

Originally, the main creative team of this dance specially invited experts from the Forbidden City as consultants, but there are too many details, and the experts from the Forbidden City can only try their best to ensure the authenticity of the restoration.

Many details cannot be fully determined.

But Zhao Chen not only perfected these details, but also gave evidence.

Like what the candlestick looks like, you can see it from that painting.

For example, what kind of paper is the drawing paper of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", how many layers are there, and what raw materials are used.

Zhao Chen spoke very well.

This incident quickly spread among the creative team.

People spoke highly of Zhao Chen.

Even the chief director of the large-scale dance "Tang Palace Night Banquet" next door came to him and asked Zhao Chen to take a look at some details of Tang Dynasty costumes.

After all, Tang and Song were next to each other. Although there were Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms in between, the Song Dynasty still had a better understanding of the culture of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, after watching this program, Zhao Chen also put forward many opinions, almost all of which were adopted.

Word of mouth is built little by little.

Zhao Chen has only been here for a short week, and everyone has praised him endlessly.

Even the people in Henan's cultural department knew about Zhao Chen.

On this day, the program team was resting. Zhao Chen has been busy discussing the dance of "So Green" with the main creative team these days, and it is rare to be free today.

So, Zhao Chen remembered that he hadn't broadcast live for several days, so he planned to broadcast the great rivers and mountains of the motherland to netizens.

Since watching the dance performance of "Only This Green", he is now full of creative inspiration.

The extremely tense dance of the dancers vividly interprets the landscape of China, especially Zhao Chen, who has seen the whole picture of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", is more touched in his heart.

This time, Zhao Chen has a new artistic pursuit.

A very shocking idea.

He wants to create a picture scroll like "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"!

Like Wang Ximeng, he wants to see all the great rivers and mountains in China, and then draw a giant landscape painting according to the drawing method of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".

"A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", the first masterpiece of Chinese green landscape painting!

From ancient times to the present, this painting has been collected in the highest-level institutions in China. In the past, it was the emperors of various dynasties, but now it is the Palace Museum.

For thousands of years, countless outstanding painters have longed to surpass Wang Ximeng's level in drawing, but none of them succeeded.

This painting uses the best paper and the best pigments in the Song Dynasty, and was created by the peerless painting genius Wang Ximeng.

Zhao Chen knew the painting technique of this painting, and many people have imitated it.

But few people can draw the effect of Wang Ximeng.

This time, Zhao Chen wanted to try.

"Wang Ximeng traveled the country for half a year and saw countless landscapes before he could paint this painting."

"I don't see enough scenery now, and I don't have enough inspiration."

"We still need to see some scenery."

Zhao Chen thought in his heart.

The drone flew high.

Live streaming is on.

After the fans received the notification from their mobile phones, many of them entered Zhao Chen's live broadcast room to watch.

When seeing the scenery in the live broadcast screen, everyone's eyes showed a touch of wonder.

There are several Qionglin Jade Palaces standing in the picture, like a royal palace, surrounded by ancient buildings. Looking outside, the white railings surround a blue lake, and the live broadcast picture is like a painting.

【Where is this?so beautiful! 】

[Why do you feel a little familiar?As if I have been there! 】

[Yeah, I feel the same way, it's amazing! 】

[I also feel a little familiar! 】

Netizens posted barrage interactions in the live broadcast room one after another, and the atmosphere was very enthusiastic from the beginning.

"Once you step into the picture scroll, you can dream back to the millennium in one day."

"This is a large-scale theme park Qingming Shanghe Garden built on the model of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", which is basically similar to the structure of the Qingming Shanghe Picture."

"What is restored here is the prosperous scene of Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty."

"Today, I will take you to the park to experience the prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty."

At this time, Zhao Chen's voice came from the live broadcast room.

Hearing his words, everyone was full of enthusiasm, and their expectations for the content of the live broadcast increased.
