This host is too professional

Chapter 134 "Heavenly Creation · Pen, Ink, Paper and Inkstone"

Don't care if it's a rush to get on the shelves, in short, the program team has already planned to film Ye Luo!

Contemporary great writers personally use ancient methods to make pens, inks, papers and inkstones, which is definitely more interesting than photographing those inheritors!
At the very least, Ye Luo's reputation is not comparable to those of them!
This gimmick alone is enough to attract a large audience!
As long as the content is not too hip, won't the ratings of this show be high?
……

After several days of preparation, the program team finally found a venue and tools for Ye Luo.

Since it was really going to be filmed, Ye Luo was willing to go all out!

Isn't it an ancient craft?

Isn't it just pen, ink, paper and inkstone?

Others don't know how the ancients made it, but Ye Luo knows it all too well!

If we want to shoot, we will shoot the most classic and original ones!
Just start shooting from the material selection!

At this moment, everyone in the program group of "Heavenly Creation" was standing outside the sheep pen of a farmer in Yanjiao, looking at the whitest goat in the sheep pen, Director Zhao swallowed, "Mr. Ye, Are you sure you want to shear the sheep yourself?"

The other people also have weird faces. It is true that the theme of our show is ancient techniques, but you are too ancient, right?Why don't you just buy some?
"If you want to show the whole process completely, you have to start recording from the materials." Ye Luo said, and then said: "However, Mr. Zhao, what you said is not rigorous enough. What do you mean I should shear the sheep myself? I When did you tell me to go?" With that, he handed the scissors in his hand to Director Zhao, "You guys are responsible for this kind of preparation, go ahead, and take the whitest part of its chest! "

Seeing the scissors wiped by Ye Luo, Director Zhao was stunned, "No? What do you mean? I'll go?"

"Otherwise?" Ye Luo took it for granted, "I'm in charge of production, and you are in charge of collecting materials. Didn't we agree before?"

"No, why don't you just buy some?"

"Then why don't you just buy a brush?"

"I……"

Director Zhao looked at the sheep in the sheep pen, and his whole body was numb.

"Director Deng, I can't cut it alone." Director Zhao looked directly at the director next to him.

Director Deng: "???"

Are you human?
"Ms. Ye, let's find a professional. There's no need for us to do it ourselves, right?" Director Deng said.

Ye Luo curled her lips and said, "Why don't you find a professional brush maker? This is the highlight of our documentary, you know? The director and the director cut the sheep by themselves. Just this gimmick has earned enough attention!"

Director Deng and Director Zhao all had the corners of their mouths twitching, the words were too familiar.

Come on, Teacher Ye has already said so, it won't work if you don't cut it.

The two of them really went all out, gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, stepped into the sheepfold, and rushed towards the whitest sheep.

"Meaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah"

Suddenly, there was a mess in the sheepfold.

Director Deng also yelled, "Fuck, I caught it! Xiao Liu, turn it on!"

Needless to say, the camera crew's three sets of lenses have already been turned on, and they will be shooting directly at the sheepfold!
Ye Luo was not idle either. Originally he was the host, and he said to the camera: "Hi everyone, audience friends, what we are seeing now is the first step of the ancient method of making brushes, selecting high-quality white wool. At present, our program group The director and director of the film are collecting the most important raw materials for us."

After more than ten minutes of tossing, Director Zhao and the two finally collected enough white wool.

"It's a good thing you didn't make Langhao brushes, otherwise, Lao Deng and I would probably not have enough lives." Director Zhao complained while patting the fodder on his body.

But Ye Luo made a cut and explained to him, "The wolf hair brushes are not from the wolves in the zoo, they use the hair of weasels."

"Ah? Is that so?" Not to mention Director Zhao, the rest of the program crew were also stunned for a moment. This was the first time they knew about it.

"Don't pinch this part, keep it, it's a point of knowledge." Ye Luo said to the camera.

"Okay, Teacher Ye." The cameraman knew very well who the boss of this program group is now, so he could only look at Director Zhao apologetically.

Director Zhao's head was full of black lines, co-authoring me became a negative teaching material?
The main materials for making the pen head are ready, and the next step is to find the raw materials for making the pen holder.This is relatively simple, just use bamboo for the pen holder.

Of course, if this is the south, bamboo is everywhere, but in the imperial capital, there are not too many.

There are also some ornamental bamboos, or some potted plants.

"Director Deng, I think the ornamental bamboos in our Huashi compound are pretty good." Ye Luo said.

The corners of Director Deng's mouth trembled a little, "Miss Ye, there is no other suitable place?"

You asked me to chop the ornamental bamboos in the China Television Academy, so why don't he wait to be scolded?

"Okay, Director Tang's office has a pretty good one..."

"Ms. Ye! It's the ornamental bamboo in the courtyard!"

The program team rushed back to China TV in a hurry. Director Zhao and Director Deng, each with an axe, followed by a bunch of camera crews. Without saying a word, they entered the backyard of China TV and kuku at the bamboos. cut!

The speed is quite fast, and it will fall down in a few minutes.

The colleagues in the past were all dumbfounded.

"What is this for?"

"Where did it come from?"

"Isn't that person Director Zhao of the Art Channel?"

"That's Director Deng from the Record Channel, right? Is there a camera following him? Where did this come from?"

Colleagues who don't know why are dumbfounded.

Director Zhao and the others don't care about it now, "Miss Ye, is that enough?"

Ye Luo nodded, "Too many."

"???"

Mr. Zhao and the others are really numb.

The big cameraman couldn't help laughing.

……

After a few days of messy tossing, I finally got together the materials for making brushes.

For the next production process, Ye Luo needs to come by himself.

However, Ye Luo didn't let Director Zhao and the others idle, and arranged for them to collect the materials needed for paper making, ink making, and inkstone chiseling.These things used are much more than making brushes!Enough to keep them busy for a while.

The camera crew was also divided into two groups, one group was on Ye Luo's side, and the other group was dedicated to filming Director Zhao and Director Deng.

To be honest, Director Zhao and Director Deng really didn't expect that they would become the subjects of the filming by themselves!

It's agreed to shoot Yela!In the end, I got involved too!
But, there's nothing they can do about it. Teacher Ye, the host, has already ended in person. What else do they have to say?
……

In a small courtyard found by the program team, Ye Luo was making brushes step by step according to the memories in his mind.

Regardless of the simple structure of the brush, at least a dozen processes are required to make a brush of decent quality.

The collected wool is first passed through water, soaked for a while, then simply cut into a moderate length, and then degreased with lime water.Next comes the most critical part of wool selection. Yeluo has to choose the most suitable hair from these wools for making pen tips.This step can be said to be the most critical step in making brushes.

The selected hair must be smooth and flawless, which is the most test of the craftsman's eyesight and experience.

Don't look at the memory of Song Yingxing in Ye Luo's mind, but in practice, he and talking on paper are two different things!

Let you watch the documentary once and you will follow along to make brushes?

That's not realistic!

That is to say, Ye Luo really dared to do it, and memorizing this thing is still somewhat useful. According to the process, it can be regarded as barely doing a lot.

But to say how well done it is is bullshit.

From now on, Ye Luo followed the steps and did what he had to do.

The selected wool is bundled and aligned layer by layer, and then the unqualified hair is removed again, and then steamed and boiled to further remove the grease, and the brush heads that are aligned again can be bundled and dried in the air.After drying, you need to iron the end of the nib with a soldering iron. This step is quite critical. If you accidentally use too much force, all the previous work will be in vain.

Ye Luo was extremely careful in this step. After the pen head was made, it could be mounted on the rod.

The pen holder here is made of bamboo, which is relatively easy to open holes.

After applying rice glue on the tip of the pen and the inside of the barrel, and fixing it, Ye Luo decorated the barrel a little bit, engraved his name, and put white powder on the engraving.

At this point, a writing brush is considered to be truly finished.

These processes seem to be not difficult, but the difficult cameraman has a deep understanding of them!

The number of times Ye Luo failed during this period is simply countless!The wool wasn't enough for Ye Luo, Mr. Zhao and the others even went to shear it again!
But to be honest, when seeing this finished product at this time, the shock in everyone's hearts is quite strong!

They witnessed with their own eyes how Ye Luo made these wool and bamboo poles into this brush bit by bit.The feeling of pure hand rubbing is really amazing!

At this time, Ye Luo took a self-made brush, dipped it in some water under the camera, and briefly showed it to the audience.

Not to mention how good it is, but it can definitely be used smoothly!

Moreover, what they show in this show is not the finished product, but the production process!

Ye Luo has already shown the process clearly.

Ye Luo has basically done all the processes he can do.

"Ms. Ye is absolutely amazing!"

"This is really understandable!"

"I didn't expect Teacher Ye to know so well!"

The people in the program team were all amazed at this moment, they thought that Ye Luo was just understanding the process at most.When they were filming, they shot Ye Luo's production process from various angles, but who would have thought that Ye Luo would actually be created in the end!
This also shocked the spirits of the program crew. Everyone had confidence in this program, but seeing Ye Luo successfully make a writing brush, their confidence exploded!
Invincible!

We're on fire!

Even before the recording of the show is finished, some people have already started to enjoy the life after the show became popular.

But Ye Luo didn't have time to deal with their messy thoughts, he never had a moment's leisure, even when he was making brushes, he was never idle.

The production of pen, ink, paper and inkstone is carried out almost simultaneously.

Regarding "ink", from the production method, it can be divided into three categories: lampblack ink, pine smoke ink and carbon black ink.What Ye Luo made this time was lampblack ink, using tung oil as the raw material, just like lighting a kerosene lamp, with a bowl covering it, so that the tung oil could not be fully burned, and ink smoke was produced, which was adsorbed on the bowl.This process often takes a long time. Ye Luo and the others couldn't wait that long to film the show, so they used the quantity to play tricks.Afterwards, the ink smoke is collected, and after washing, refining, shaping and other processes, a relatively simple ink stick can finally be made.

The ink ingots made by Ye Luo can only be used for writing.If it is a true master of ink making, it will even take several years to make a single ink ingot, and other condiments such as musk must be added to it, and gold strokes will be added later.The ink ingots produced in this way are not only for use, but also for playing and admiring.

The process of making ink is more complicated than pen and paper!
Speaking of the production process of the Four Treasures of the Study, it is estimated that the inkstone is relatively simple.Of course, to put it simply, it is only because the lower limit of the inkstone is relatively low.If you don't pursue something too exquisite, just find a relatively hard stone and grind a small pit in the middle, it will be considered an inkstone.

Ye Luo was not so foolish.

Although it is a bit strenuous to make the ten famous inkstones, the minimum process flow should be displayed.

When Ye Luo made the inkstone, he chose bluestone, which is actually the material used to make the Yishui inkstone.

Mr. Zhao and the others personally went to Yi County, Hebei Province to select the stone materials according to Ye Luo's request.

However, Yi Shui Inkstone Ye Luo would definitely not be able to make it. It's not that there is any difficult process, but that Yi Shui Inkstone needs to be carved!Just this one step directly killed Ye Luo.

Sculpture is the same as calligraphy, it doesn't just need someone's memory.

But Ye Luo's process of making inkstone is basically done according to the process of Yishui inkstone.

As for making paper, this is not an ordinary difficulty.

Not only is the process complicated, but there are still many places where Ye Luo needs help... But fortunately, it can be regarded as being made after stumbling.

Paper, ink and pen!
It took Ye Luo and the others nearly 20 days to complete the recording!

In fact, this is already pretty fast!
Many of these places are just in time to catch up with the shooting progress.Their program is not to show the final results, but the focus is on the process!
The post-dubbing commentary is particularly critical!

Whether this program can be successful or not, at least half of the factors depend on the quality of the dubbing and commentary in the later stage!

Fortunately, their program recording channel is quite supportive, and the post-dubbing commentary uses Mr. Chen Yixiang!

It took about a week of post-production.

Finally, the first series of this large-scale ancient craft documentary, which was recorded through bumps and bumps, is finally completed!
What followed was overwhelming advertisements!
"The "Heavenly Creation: Pen, Ink, Paper and Inkstone" series will be broadcast on the Art Channel and Documentary Channel at [-]:[-] p.m. this weekend!"

"Follow Teacher Ye Luo, let's appreciate the unique charm of classic craftsmanship!"

"Do you really understand the most legendary literary figure in our time? Let's lock on the literature and art channel on Thursday to see how Mr. Ye Luo restores the classical skills!"

"Record Channel has released a series of documentaries "Heavenly Creations"! The first series "Brush, Ink, Paper and Inkstone" mainly shows the whole process of Master Ye Luo using classical techniques to make the Four Treasures of the Study!"

"The first domestic large-scale documentary recording classical craftsman skills, shockingly launched!"

The art channel and record channel are desperate propaganda, scrolling, video, Weibo, TV commercials, etc., all available propaganda methods are used.
