if relics could talk

I went to Beijing and visited the Forbidden City for three consecutive days. Tao Le specially spent one day to watch the watch exhibition. She watched the whole process very carefully and took a lot of photos through the glass. The graph is not particularly ideal.

Tao Le started to write the script after he came back, and this time the writing of the script was much smoother, and Tao Le was still very secretive and refused to reveal anything.

Qin Yi has been following the filming in the restoration room for a while, and it is almost coming to an end recently. When the new schedule comes out, he will have to do some reshoots, because during the recording, his voice occasionally appeared on camera, and he was selected by the dubbing director. Let him do the voice-over commentary.

At first, Qin Yi refused to agree. After all, he is not a professional. For a documentary of this level, of course, it is more suitable for a professional voice actor to do the commentary.

But the dubbing director just picked his voice, and planned to train him in the recording studio, maybe he could discover a new voice actor.

The current dubbing industry also urgently needs fresher voices, otherwise there will be a few familiar voices coming and going, which is good, but it also needs more permutations and combinations.

Tao Le also laughed at him: "I don't think our company can keep you anymore. A stage play hasn't been produced yet. I don't know how many people are planning to poach you. It's fine if you are good-looking and get poached as an actor. Now The voice is so good that I was arrested, I feel a sense of crisis."

"Miss Tao, do you need your boyfriend to remind you? I heard that you were the first to be considered as an actor. You have a girlfriend who is both beautiful and talented. I don't know who should have a sense of crisis. .”

"Then what are you going to do?" Tao Le stopped joking with him, and brought the topic back to the topic, "You followed this documentary from the beginning to the end. In fact, I don't think it's a problem for you to dub it."

"But for this level of documentaries, I'm not even an amateur voice actor. I can only read scripts, so I can't help or slow down."

"Changing your mind, the commentary for this documentary must be very professional. If you do dubbing, you will definitely be able to get in touch with these commentary for the first time. If you don't understand something, you will still have the opportunity to ask for advice. This is not for you. Is the target closest?"

It's not that Qin Yi hasn't thought about this reason, but he is not professional after all, and adding dubbing in post-editing will not prevent him from getting in touch with these professional commentaries.

But when Tao Le said this, his precarious rationality began to waver again.

Because Tao Le watched a lot of Qing court dramas, and even some time-travel dramas, and then thought of the stage play she first watched by Yuan Xinyi, which was actually a time-travel theme, so she had some brainstorming ideas.

In fact, many unearthed cultural relics are very magical in the eyes of modern people. With the backward productivity level at that time, how did they produce such exquisite and huge cultural relics?
Is it possible that the producer himself traveled through time?
Tao Le asked himself that as a modern person, he was not too narrow-minded. At that time, cars and horses were slow, there were not so many entertainment activities, and there were not so advanced technologies. It's time.

Many craftsmen were able to spend their entire lives to complete a work of art. Even if it was to please the royal family or nobles at that time, it was an opportunity enough to pass on their works to future generations.

I don't know how many craftsmen made utensils out of this mentality.

But Tao Le had a bold idea after seeing the clocks from the Qing Dynasty.

Clocks and watches are different from other cultural relics. They were introduced into China from abroad in the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, the three emperors of Shunkang and Qianlong were very interested in clocks and watches. In order to please the emperor, the missionaries did bring from their respective countries very advanced clocks and watches that were used in the past. Clockwork of craftsmanship.

And this was indeed a rare thing in China at the time.

The most important function of the writer's clock is not to wake up the emperor to go to court early.

The emperors of that period would wake up at four or five o'clock in the morning every day, and there were personal servants responsible for waking them up and washing them up, which was regarded as a human-shaped alarm clock.

The writing clock is more of an off function.

When Tao Le learned about the information before, he had already found out that the shape of the writer's clock was a copper-plated gold-plated four-story pavilion.In the circular pavilion on the top floor, there are two people holding a cylinder in their hands to dance. After starting it, the two turn around to distance themselves, and the cylinder is displayed as a banner, with the words "Longevity without boundaries" written on it.

Just seeing the text, she already felt amazing, but when she went to the Palace Museum and saw it up close, she was still amazed by its exquisite shape.

It can be seen from the words "Longevity without borders". The clocks and watches back then were made more for the purpose of pleasing the emperor, and the words and sentences written were all auspicious.

If there was a modern watchmaker who traveled back then, it would be different from the routines of Qing palace dramas. It would not be a polyamorous love affair between a beautiful woman and several elder brothers, but a watchmaker with advanced thinking of modern people. Participate in the restoration of the writer's clock who can't write for some reason.

He must be very confused.

From the standpoint of the writer's clock, it will definitely be deeply impressed by this matter.

"Strange, I was made to make the emperor happy, isn't it? How can I make him happy if it's broken? Why did the craftsman hesitate? If I fix it, I'll be rewarded generously."

There have been specialized craftsmen in the courts of all dynasties, and the meaning of their existence is also to repair and maintain these exquisite royal collections.

A modern restorer may not come across a few precious cultural relics that can be restored in their entire life. If they have such an opportunity to contact them, they will definitely not want to waste this opportunity.

But in the Qing Dynasty, the restorers were servants of the emperor, and these precious clocks were restored only to please the ruling class on a specific occasion.

This is very difficult for their self-esteem.

The craftsman went through a lot of struggle and finally convinced himself.

His job is only to restore this precious cultural relic. As for whether it is considered a cultural relic now, or what it will be used for after restoration, it is not something he should consider.

The only thing he needs to consider is how to restore the writing clock.

When Tao Le was watching documentaries and consulting other materials, he noticed that many clocks and watches had been repaired during the Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China.

At that time, it may not have been successfully repaired due to various reasons, or it may have been damaged to various degrees in the subsequent ups and downs.

And it is true that many restorers do not have the opportunity to come into contact with such exquisite first-class cultural relics.

If one is repaired, one is missing.

If they had the opportunity to travel back to the time when they could get close to these cultural relics, almost no one could calmly refuse them.
