The man is in modern times [time travel]

Although it can be seen that the respective directors and cameras are working hard to create and innovate, the final effect is still a large group of middle-aged men and women who look similar, living in similar living conditions.Teachers are divided into middle school teachers and university teachers, and employees are divided into civil servants, public institution employees and state-owned enterprise employees. Teaching or going to work, exercise and calligraphy are both correct, both movement and stillness are suitable, everyone’s family is happy, and the taste is elegant—after all, it gives people the same Feel.

So far the most foreign-looking one is the calligraphy-loving scholar and antique collector. He used to be a Confucian businessman, and he generously showed part of his many collections to the camera, which almost dropped the jaws of many viewers. I can't see that this unattractive and elegant old man actually has such a family background. Some works make you kneel just by hearing the author's name and year, okay? !

The large electronic screen behind everyone at the scene played everyone's short video synchronously, but in order not to interfere with the performance of the contestants, the sound of the short video was turned off, but the few works that flashed by on the screen still caused some small commotion among the knowledgeable experts .

The audience is busy with Baidu science popularization forums, and the experts are busy communicating with each other, so that not many people pay attention to the short videos of this collector and that contestant.

It's finally the last person.

At this time, Xiao Yueyun, who was sitting on the stage and writing, swiped his brush with no distraction. Compared with some contestants who were too fierce under the camera, they were clearly writing in block letters, but they used the brush as a sword dance, or they were solemn and solemn as if they were doing something. The contestant in the ceremony, Xiao Yueyun, seemed not to be affected by the camera at all, with smooth brushwork and a chic posture, as if writing was just a subconscious memory of his body, and the interaction between man and pen was natural and pleasing to the eye.

Good concentration.

The judges in the audience nodded slightly.

Just now, the camera caught sight of the few pieces of writing that Xiao Yueyun had completed and was laying aside to dry. With a quick glance, one can see that his skill is very solid. Matching that face and the demeanor of the whole body, God really treats this young man very favorably. ah.

Chairman Zhao of the National Calligraphy Association sighed in his heart: It's great that Xiao Yueyun is not an embroidered pillow.This competition not only attracts investment, but also tried live broadcasting for the first time. Using new media channels, it finally attracted a certain amount of attention among young people in China. I have to say that there is such a young idol player as Xiao Yueyun. , to make this promotion smoother. Before this, Chairman Zhao never expected that things would go so smoothly.

In modern society, many people worship foreign countries, Chinese studies are gradually declining, keyboards have replaced writing, many people forget to write, and calligraphy is gradually declining. Even college entrance examination art candidates are more willing to choose Western-style sketch oil painting, calligraphy and Chinese painting candidates It is decreasing year by year, how can this kind of unfavorable signs of inheritance not make them who are at the top of the circle anxious?

In recent competitions, there have been fewer and fewer outstanding calligraphers who are relatively young, as can be seen from the results of two consecutive competitions with zero gold medals.

This is why Chairman Zhao insisted on reforming the competition method this year, expanding the influence of the people, and arousing the attention and love of calligraphy among the younger generation.Therefore, the appearance of Xiao Yueyun can be said to be at the right time, place and people. As long as he has real materials, Chairman Zhao doesn't mind at all for making him a key training object.

Of course, just to be on the safe side, Chairman Zhao repeatedly contacted Chairman Yu of the S Provincial Association and several senior seniors, and he was relieved after hearing that they had affirmed Xiao Yueyun's true level and character.

However, although Chairman Zhao really wanted to establish a youth idol in the calligraphy circle, he never thought of interfering with the results of the competition itself. He even refused to be one of the main judges, and just sat quietly in front Waiting in line for the result of the game.

Suddenly, the big screen at the scene changed, and Xiao Yueyun's short video appeared on the TV screens of thousands of households.

The first person who enters the arena is an ink grinder, whose face cannot be seen. After close-ups of the table case, pen and ink, and slender hands, the ink-stained pen has written a correct regular script "书" on the paper.

In the next second, the painting style changed, the car bell rang, and the surrounding environment began to be noisy, and a person on a bicycle appeared in front of the camera.

Her shoulder-length hair, which is half long but not short, flutters in the wind. Matching Xiao Yueyun's handsome and flawless face, not only does it not make people feel feminine, but it also has a different kind of casual demeanor.

When the perfect close-up of the face appeared on the screen, many viewers held their nosebleeds and continued to watch.

Classroom, library, cafeteria, each scene has only one or two shots, accompanied by youthful music, just a few shots, let the audience feel that they went back to college with Xiao Yueyun, that beautiful campus time always It makes people can't help but smile.

As expected, the camera followed Xiao Yueyun's figure, transforming from a beautiful modern campus to an antique quadrangle with carved beams and painted buildings. Under the ginkgo tree, the sound of guqin was deep and distant.

The next moment, the camera shifted to the scene at the beginning of the short film, and the same pen wrote an elegant running script "Qin" this time.

In the next scene, the qin player just now disappeared, but the sound of the qin continued. In the courtyard, Xiao Yueyun also began to dance swords in harmony with an increasingly unrestrained and turbulent rhythm.

In a trance, many old fans seemed to feel that they had seen "Sword Immortal" again, and just wanted to type to reminisce, but saw that the sword technique became more and more fierce, and the sound of piercing the air was endless. Dipping ink and swiping, the cameras on both sides switched back and forth, getting faster and faster, and the sound of the piano became more and more urgent. The audience was also infected by this momentum, staring at the screen without daring to breathe.

Finally, the sound of the zither stopped, the sword dancer retracted his sword, and a huge Chinese character "剑" in wild cursive traditional characters pierced through the back of the paper, as if it was about to jump out of the paper.

Only then did the audience regain their breath. Everyone thought that the short film would end here, but they didn't expect that there would be an easter egg behind.

"Brother, I also want to learn calligraphy." A childish voice full of curiosity suddenly remembered.

A little boy who looked very similar to Xiao Yueyun, like an angel, walked to the table with a small schoolbag on his back. His cute appearance and big watery eyes attracted a large group of audience.Only then did people see clearly that this was a study room. Xiao Yueyun was standing in front of the table, practicing calligraphy with a pen, as if everything before was just his imagination.

"You, let's practice regular script first."

Accompanied by the gentle and melodious pampering voice, Xiao Yueyun held his younger brother's hand and began to teach him to write calligraphy. The camera cut from close-up, close-up to long-range, and the voices of the two brothers became lower and lower until the end of the picture. There is still more to say.

……

The short film is only about two minutes long, and there are only two lines of dialogue, why do you feel like watching a movie?It's gone?I still want to see more!

Most of the previous short films used the contestants’ interviews or commentary to support the main body of the film, which was quite satisfactory and the content was not too different. However, Xiao Yueyun’s film only uses pictures, live sound and music to make it as advertised. The general effect of the promotional film, the texture kills other films in seconds.

It's no wonder that during the rehearsal yesterday, the other contestants were going to complain.

That's right, after getting the list of finalists, the organizing committee met with the program team, and the team finally sent to shoot Xiao Yueyun's short film was indeed the best among all the teams, and the equipment was also the most complete. .Although it is not as grand as real advertisements and movies, and the time is shorter than those movies, it is already very important for a small TV program short film.

Of course, Xiao Yueyun also accepted a personal experience interview like other contestants, but after the material was brought back to the stage, the director watched all the pictures, and the inspiration flowed like a spring. He decided to use the picture to speak, and boldly played with the structure. The editing technique of success is success, and the final effect can finally live up to the high-quality materials that they went all the way to Yangcheng to shoot.

All [-] short films with contestants as protagonists, in addition to introducing the experience and character of the contestants, the final central idea seems to fall on popularizing calligraphy.To be honest, the audience is not stupid. Although everyone knows that it is necessary to promote Chinese culture and national quintessence, but there are only twenty such films, and everyone will be fatigued.

Fortunately, the finale was Xiao Yueyun's section.

The director team was fortunate countless times that Xiao Yueyun was ranked last according to the strokes of the surname.

The official Weibo of the program group is also updated in real time. Almost every time a short film is aired on TV, it is posted on Weibo, watched and forwarded by many people, and continues to exert its influence.

A few days later, everyone will find that Xiao Yueyun's short film has almost become the official promotional film of calligraphy art.

Many people said that after watching the film, they felt that learning calligraphy is very elegant, and they came up with the idea of ​​asking themselves or their children to practice calligraphy—these are the next words.

Because of this short film, the live broadcast building and the QQ group were full of excitement for a while. The judges at the scene could not hear the sound, and the effect of appreciating the film was slightly reduced, but their focus was obviously on the few words written by Xiao Yueyun. In terms of fonts, just looking at the words "book, piano, sword" is a rare masterpiece, and they were very impressed by the words that flashed by in those few shots.However, due to the shooting technique and camera editing, although they knew that the person playing the piano and dancing the sword was Xiao Yueyun, they couldn't be 100% sure whether it was really Xiao Yueyun himself who wrote the words.

However, the answer will be known later.

After playing the short film, I returned to the scene. Because there was still a little before the deadline, the host began to interview the experts and judges on the spot, the reasons why they chose the five works as topics and their respective difficulties.

These are all in the script and have been rehearsed in advance. The selected experts are very eloquent and answer fluently. They try to use easy-to-understand and humorous language, so that the audience in front of the TV can't help but be impressed. A brief analysis of five ancient texts.

At the same time, the camera switches to the contestants from time to time, some of them have finished their work and are carefully sorting out their works, and some are still writing quickly.

Fortunately, the stage is big enough to accommodate the 100 desks and hang the [-]+ works.

Each work is signed with the name and personal seal of the contestant, so you are not afraid of being confused.Due to the lack of time, few people will write a question repeatedly if they are not really dissatisfied or have written a wrong word that is not easy to correct.

Finally, with a bang, the gongs and drums sounded.

The one-hour writing time expired, all contestants withdrew to the waiting area behind the stage side, and the hostesses came up to collect all the works one by one and pasted the signature positions.Because the size of the paper for all contestants and the designated signature area are the same, the program team has already designed dozens of display props, which can not only place and display works vertically, but also cover everyone’s signature .

After a 15-minute commercial, back to the arena, the dexterous hostesses had already placed the first batch of official script works that needed to be reviewed and pushed them to the center of the stage.Twenty contestants were already sitting three rows on the side of the stage, and they were also looking sideways at the center of the stage, trying to find their own among the works that were out of sequence.

The six expert judges left the seat, went up to appreciate each work, wrote short comments on each work on their own scoring board and scored them. In addition, for each font, each expert had to choose the best three in his mind. works.

Because it is a live broadcast, there is not much time for the experts. Fortunately, everyone has been immersed in calligraphy for many years and has a good eye. Facing most of the works of the younger generations, it is not difficult to judge under the eyes of everyone. At the same time, after showing all the works one by one, the camera often switches back and forth between the contestant area and the commentary area to capture the faces of the judges and the reactions of the contestants.

At this time, the posts on the Internet are also very lively.

"It's obviously a very boring program, why haven't I changed the channel?"

"Who says it's boring? I feel so nervous. The results will be announced soon. The competition system is actually quite cruel."

"Anyway, I think they look pretty much the same."

"I have been studying calligraphy for ten years. When it was first broadcast, every piece of work that I thought was awesome was photographed on the TV. I think the top three will appear on the 3rd, 8th, 12th, 17th, and 19th. Stand up post As proof!"

After the first round, Xiao Yueyun's seal script works did not rank among the top three. When the results were announced, he kept smiling, as if he had been prepared for this.Seal script is the least practiced among the five calligraphy styles, and most of the high-level students are older.

Sure enough, after the inscription was opened, it was found that two of the top three in seal script were over 50 years old, and there was a female contestant in her 40s.

Seeing the result of this item, the three people smiled and said "acceptance" under the congratulations of others.Then they were all brought on stage for expert commentary and a brief interview with the moderator.These three people were not all part of the seal script quartet in the preliminary round, and the other two who failed to make it to the stage all had ugly faces.

Under the stage, Fu Ruoqian looked at Zou Wentao beside him, and saw that his expression had changed from nervousness to obvious regret.

Sure enough, this person is still as easy to distinguish emotions as ever. Fu Ruoqian shook his head, turned to look at Fu Lang on the other side, and found that his cousin was seriously watching the dazzling Xiao Yueyun on the stage, with no sadness or joy on his face. But Fu Ruoqian could see the tenderness in his eyes.

Following his gaze to the stage, he saw that Xiao Yueyun was also looking back at Fu Lang, and the two looked at each other in mid-air, conveying comfort, trust and... touching to each other.

[Not in the top three. ]

[It's okay, just do your best. ]

[Well, watch me for the next few episodes. ]

[I believe in you, waiting for you to win the prize. ]

[Thanks, dear. ]

……

Tsk, abuse the dog openly.Fu Ruoqian, who couldn't bear to watch after making up his mind, simply turned his head and looked at Zou Wentao.

**

Gradually, the five rounds of self-selected topics were evaluated one by one and the top three were announced.The order of the numbering of the works in the five fonts is scrambled, so the numbering of each contestant is different.

Every time the top three winners are announced, the program team has left enough foreshadowing and suspense. Although the overall list is not high in the industry, the program team has made a general list, which is the same as the Olympic gold medal list, creating a list of contestants. The atmosphere of you chasing each other caused the hearts of the audience to go up and down.

In seal script and official script, Xiao Yueyun didn't enter the top three. Countless passers-by and audience felt sorry for him, but they didn't expect him to be a latecomer, making a big splash in the last three fonts!

Regular script is second, running script is first, and cursive script is first.

Genius!

The program team thoughtfully scanned all the works in a timely manner and uploaded them to the internal client. The guests on the scene can use the IPAD provided by the sponsor to click in and enjoy them in real time.Of course, the inscriptions are all covered, and the numbers are exactly the same as those on the stage.If the six experts are tied for No.1 and it is difficult to distinguish between them, then the on-site experts can also use the client to vote.

Therefore, although they could not be on stage, all the members of the expert panel on the scene had carefully read all the works, and they had their own judgments on the quality of each work.

This is why they were so surprised when the top three of the three fonts were revealed.

For Xiao Yueyun, who is so young, his short-term on-site writing skills and psychological quality are beyond their imagination.Most of the contestants' on-field abilities were compromised compared to usual, but Xiao Yueyun was calm and indifferent from the beginning to the end, not surprised by favor or humiliation, and the level of those few pictures was also very high, so it didn't make people feel that he was affected in any way.No, to be precise, his running script work was more refined than that in the preliminary competition, and the judges couldn't put it down.

Of course, there are still several masters with good on-site ability and mentality, but because Xiao Yueyun on the camera is really eye-catching, the audience naturally ignores other people.

Xiao Yueyun's cursive script attracted the attention of experts in the preliminary competition, and was regarded as one of the favorites to win the championship, but he did not expect his regular script and cursive script to be so high.

Especially the cursive script, flying like a dragon and dancing like a phoenix, with the willful spirit unique to a martial arts practitioner, which is very different from the dignified and majestic of his regular script, and the elegance and agility of his running script.

Since Kaimeng, Xiao Yueyun's handwriting has been taught by famous calligraphers since he was a child. In addition, he is very talented. After more than ten years of diligent practice, his level has long been very high, especially his favorite running script. Received many compliments.

Even in modern times, Xiao Yueyun has almost no interruptions except when he is too busy studying part-time jobs.In the past year since entering Yangcheng University, Xiao Yueyun has systematically studied modern theoretical research on calligraphy, combined with the teachings of his calligraphy teacher when he was young, and has gained a lot.

It can be said that Xiao Yueyun's calligraphy starting point is higher than that of all modern people, and he knows how to get rid of distracting thoughts and practice with concentration than many modern people.

As for cursive script, the strength of the hand and the comprehension of the strokes contained in the martial arts practitioners are also beyond the reach of ordinary people.

All in all, Xiao Yueyun's running script and cursive script really surprised the judges.

For the last optional question, there are also [-] works.Because the requirements cannot be the same as the five fonts already written, the contestants have chosen thin gold body, Zanhua Xiaokai, Zhengkai to Xingkai, Dazhuan to Xiaozhuan, etc... In short, there are not many new ideas.

Xiao Yueyun chose a font created by a well-known Meier in the early years of the Great Zhou Dynasty, known as a variant of "Mei Ti". The "plum style" is somewhat similar to Song Huizong's "thin gold style". The strokes are thin and hard, elegant and graceful, but full of style, just like the delicate and fragrant plum blossoms that are noble and proud.

Mei's works were all the rage in the Zhou Dynasty, and they were very popular among boudoirs. Xiao Yueyun also practiced plum style for a while, but after being taught by a calligraphy teacher, Xiao Yueyun integrated his familiar style into plum style. In the plum body, he learned from others' strengths and gradually formed his own unique style, but the shadow of the plum body is not much.

The teacher once teased with relief: "If you practice hard, after decades, if your works are easy to spread, maybe there will be more "Xiao style" in the history books." It is said that Er'er's calligraphy cannot be passed on easily, so Xiao Yueyun didn't care about it at the time.

Thinking about it now, to get such an evaluation from the teacher, Xiao Yueyun's variant plum style should be really not bad.

There has never been a record in the history of calligraphy and works have been circulated. As soon as the "Mei Ti" appeared on the stage, it immediately attracted the attention of the judges.

Xiao Yueyun was called to the stage and was interviewed for a long time. Due to the different history, Mei and his works do not exist in this time and space. It is too scary to say the name of his teacher. Xiao Yue Yun had no choice but to say sorry to "Mr. Mei" in his heart, and replied that he realized it under the guidance of an elder.

The judges also asked about the person's name, and Xiao Yueyun replied that he had passed away a long time ago.

The judges were skeptical, but after thinking about it, if someone really created this font, they should have become famous in the industry, unless Xiao Yueyun's elder is a very indifferent to fame and fortune As Xiao Yueyun said, it is a new font that he realized, or at least he participated in the creation and passed it down.

For imitation and innovation, the value of the latter is of course much higher than that of the former. Besides, it is everyone's vision to establish a school.Many experts look at Xiao Yueyun's self-selected works as if they are admiring a rare treasure, and they are even more impressed by Xiao Yueyun himself.

In the end, based on the performance of the audience, Xiao Yueyun broke the silence of zero gold medals in the two calligraphy competitions and became the only gold medal in the No.60 Huaguo Calligraphy Competition!

The jury commented: "Even if there is no final self-selected work, the level of Xiao Yueyun's running script and cursive script is enough to win the gold medal. I did not expect him to give people a huge surprise at the end. The biggest gain of this competition is the discovery of a genius And a new typeface, today's competition is enough to record a strong stroke in the history of modern calligraphy."

There was thunderous applause in the studio, the spotlights flashed together, Fu Lang and others in the audience clapped their hands proudly, and Zou Wentao almost wanted to whistle.

When Xiao Yueyun received the trophy and certificate, he finally showed a bit of vivacity that should be expected at his age, kissed the trophy happily, and then proudly raised his chin in a certain direction off the stage, like an expectant bird. The child who praised him had a bright smile that almost blinded the audience, and made the corners of Fu Lang's mouth slightly twitch.

The fans on the Internet were already crazy about it. At Xiao Yueyun's age, and referring to the previous winners, they were already mentally prepared to see him running with him. No one thought that Xiao Yueyun would actually win the gold medal!

It feels like the idol is even better than I imagined, which is really a surprise!

He really deserves to be a positive energy male god, what if people who like him don't work harder?

The author has something to say: Remarks: The author does not know calligraphy. All calligraphy-related knowledge in this article comes from Internet materials. If there are any bugs, please correct me!Thanks!
