rewrite life

A classic English tea set sits on a chopping board in a hotel kitchen.Tang Shi was standing by the table, preparing the special dragon and phoenix tea cake.A large group of blond, blue-eyed, tall foreigners gathered around Tang Shi, watching Tang Shi's movements curiously.

As early as a few months ago, Lu Heng's trustees took out the green and white tea leaves picked from the country. Tang Shi first roasted these tea leaves to adapt to the heat, and then wrapped the round tea with clean white paper, crushed it little by little, and then ground it Press, and use a special sieve to screen out the fine tea powder.

One response moves smoothly and smoothly, which is extremely mysterious.Evan, who was watching, couldn't help asking: "Don, is what you said true? Can you really draw pictures in the tea by making tea? It's like cappuccino latte art? And it can also make these pictures keep changing, isn’t it amazing?”

Tang Shi stared intently at the tea powder in his hand, and didn't even share it with Evan out of the corner of his eye. He just replied, "This technique is called tea distribution. It was a very popular tea ceremony in the Song Dynasty in our country. At that time, bureaucrats, nobles, The royal family and even monks and literati liked to drink tea in this way. People at that time could also write poems and paintings in the tea, etc. Later, because fried tea became popular, everyone didn’t like to drink tea cakes, and this kind of tea ceremony was lost... If you talk about magic, it must be more arrogant than coffee latte art."

Tang Shi said, carefully put the prepared tea powder into the teacup, then turned around and poured the boiled tea into the teapot.Looking at the position of the spout, he explained to Evan and others: "The so-called performance of tea sharing is actually pouring boiling hot water into the teacup, because the position of the teapot is different, and the shape of the teapot spout is different. The patterns that can be displayed in the cup are also different. What I want to use now is to order tea, and then show patterns of flowers, birds, fish and animals."

Before Tang Shi finished speaking, the focus of several cameras was aimed at the small teacup on the table at the same time. Seeing this, Tang Shi smiled slightly, held the pot with one hand, tilted slightly, and his arm floated up and down accordingly, and the water column went from high to low. Gestures are constantly changing.I saw that the inside of the teacup, which was still covered with tea powder, suddenly transformed into a pattern of flowers with the injection of hot water. Before everyone could exclaim, the pattern inside the teacup transformed into a vivid bird again. The bird instantly became fatter, with rounded curves, and turned into a naive puppy again. In the end, the puppy gradually dissipated, leaving only a cup of steaming tea on the table.

Tang Shi looked at the cup of tea that was already full after only changing the pattern three times, and the dumbfounded looks of the foreigners around him who wanted to stare out their eyes, and he was very proud.In his mouth, he pretended to be regretful and said: "My hand was born. I used to be able to share tea and write poems."

But the past that Tang Shi mentioned was also in the previous life.At that time, because Tang Shi was a full-time writer, he seldom communicated with people in real life all the year round, and his personality became a bit introverted, becoming a veritable otaku.And because Tang Shi has a lot of hobbies, and he always collects materials when writing novels, Tang Shi can be regarded as half a technical geek.

This method of sharing tea and presenting art is when Tang Shi was writing a novel that traveled back to the Song Dynasty. Because he was more interested in this art, he searched a lot of information on the Internet, and he also followed the information to find out the truth. In the end, he visited many places. , I found a folk artist and studied hard for more than half a year before I learned this technique of dividing tea.

At that time, Tang Shile couldn't find the north, so he immediately called Lu Hengzhi who was filming far away by the West Lake, and he was stupefied for a long time.Later, when Lu Hengzhi came back, Tang Shi specially showed off in front of Lu Hengzhi several times.I still remember that Lu Hengzhi also learned this technique from him later, and used it in a costume drama, which really surprised many movie fans.

In this life, when Tang Shi was thinking about the script of "A Wonderful Journey", he immediately thought of this performance of sharing tea.Anyway, it was so hard to get such an opportunity, and I had to be shy in front of the people all over the world.So it was decided that Tang found the tea set in the hotel kitchen and wanted to make tea for Jason.As for why the English-style tea set was chosen, it is to reflect the main theme of the film - the cultural exchange and integration of the East and the West.

But whether this dream can come true depends on Tang Shi himself.So when Tang Shi was collecting tea leaves, he searched for more, and then made a lot of tea balls. He thought that if he didn't succeed, he would have the cheek to come a few more times, even if it was a few more days, but he didn't. Thinking that he was lucky enough to succeed once - so if he is lucky, no one can stop him!

Reaching out to put the teapot in his hand on the chopping board, Tang Shi rubbed his wrist pretending to be reserved, and said to Evan and the others: "How about it, let's take a picture of it. Let me see the effect. It's time to start filming."

Evan and the others came back to their senses, and immediately checked the shot just taken.Under the bright morning light, Tang Shi was wearing a white shirt with both necklines untied, revealing his fair chest and delicate collarbone.A pair of sleeves were also rolled up to the elbows, revealing two well-proportioned white forearms.

Under the bright sunshine, the pure tea leaves seemed to be painted with a layer of bright colors. His hands were slender and neatly trimmed, revealing round and pink nails.Ten fingers flexibly take out the green and white tea leaves, fry them, roast them, wrap them, crush them, sieve them, and finally pour the fine tea powder into the teacups with exquisite patterns.

The jumping sunshine seemed to be a magic elf, rendering the young man who was engrossed more and more exquisitely. When viewed from the camera, the whole body of the young man seemed to be haloed into a circle of light, which made the young man more tender and soft.His light is not like gems or glass diamonds that everyone is familiar with, and it is not so dazzling that it is so dazzling.However, this kind of gentle temperament is also extremely attractive, just like the autumn wind blowing through the golden wheat field, and the moon at night blowing over the sparkling water...

Everyone didn't know how to describe this feeling, and finally they could only stare blankly at the person in the camera, after pouring boiling hot water into the teapot—then, a real miracle happened.

Flowers and plants, birds, animals, the pictures that come out of the clouds, floating like immortals, seem to be scenes that only appear in dreams.However, at this moment, without applying any special effects, it just appeared alive in front of my eyes.

Until all the pictures dissipated again, only a cup of steaming tea was left quietly on the table.The boy turned his head and smiled at the camera.That moment of self-confidence and publicity, demeanor and introversion made foreigners who never understood Huaguo culture feel a lot of emotion.

The people on Mo are like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world.

Lu Hengzhi stood blankly among the crowd, looking at the young man slowly revealing his peerless demeanor in front of the camera, the pride and admiration in his eyes were fully revealed.

But at this time, they didn't care to look at his expression, all the people crowded forward, surrounded Tang Shi, begging Tang Shi to give them this wonderful cup of tea.In order to be able to grab this cup of tea, Evan even pretended to say: "Don, your performance is so perfect, this is simply a miracle. There is no need to retake at all, these pictures are the most perfect material."

Even Al, who has always been calm and composed, couldn't help but walk up to people and asked Tang Shi to give him this cup of tea—because the love and longing on Jennifer's face were already too obvious.

In the end, Tang Shi had no choice but to slow everyone down, and said to Evan, "Let's finish filming this part first. This cup of tea is getting cold."

Only then did everyone come back to their senses, remembering their responsibilities and the tasks of the crew.So everyone watched with envy and envy that Leon, who had already put on makeup, walked past the crowd into the lobby of the hotel, and Tang Shi also directed the crew to move the props into the lobby.He re-boiled a pot of boiling water, poured it into the teapot, and hurried to the lobby.

By then Evan and all the camera lights were ready.Tang walked up to Jason with a teacup in his hand, smiled and said to Jason, "Today, I'm going to do a magic trick for you."

Then he calmly repeated the action of distributing tea just now.It's a pity that I don't know if it's a problem with the tea, or Tang Shi's actions are not in place. This time the tea distribution failed.Lyon next to the table dutifully reproduced all the expressions when he saw Tang Shi serving tea in the kitchen just now - surprise, disbelief, admiration, infatuation, and so on.

I have to say that Lyon's performance was wonderful.Judging from Lyon's performance alone, no one could see that Tang Shi's previous move had failed.

And then, Tang Shi took the trouble to repeat the action of distributing tea several times.Among them, there are some successful ones, and some failed ones. Some pictures have changed four or five times, and some have only one and a half. not come out.

In the end, Evan chose the most perfect section from all the materials and kept it, and the other sections did not give up.Prepare to wait until the time of publicity in the future, and put it in the promotional video to amaze the world - let everyone accompany them to drop their eyeballs together!

After the filming of the Fenchaqiao section was successfully completed, there was only one wonderful section left to be filmed——the confession in the wheat field.

So all the members of the crew quickly packed their tools and rushed to the wheat field after drinking the miraculous tea with satisfaction.And this time is in the afternoon, which is the most sunny time of the day.

The golden sun is shining on the golden wheat fields, and the autumn wind is blowing. From a distance, it seems to be endless waves of gold.Tang and Jason, who have already finished their makeup and changed their clothes, are walking side by side in the middle of the wheat field. This shot mainly reflects the emotions of the two young people like a raging sun, so the whole painting style needs to be unusually bright and warm.The clear blue sky, the lovely white clouds like cotton candy, and the endless wheat field at a glance, two handsome young men walked slowly along the road full of wild flowers on both sides, holding hands, shoulder to shoulder shoulder.

The camera slowly zooms out to include the entire wheat field and the entire town, creating a sense of tranquility and tranquility.The time is just right, and the world is stable.

However, such a picture is beautiful.But in the mid-autumn of September, when the sun is the hottest and the weather is the hottest afternoon, it is not a good experience to walk through the wheat fields over and over again.

So after tossing about two or three times, the sweat on Tang Shi and Leon's faces dripped like running water. Unknown little bugs pounced on and bit them endlessly.In just a short while, Tang Shi and Leon were stared at several times on their arms and faces.

Then there is another scene where Jason, who is an illustrator, wants to draw a sketch for Tang, and Tang leans leisurely under the tree root, reaches out and pulls a weed to his lips, and blows a Jason faintly. A tune never heard before.In fact, what Tang Shi played was the song "Blessings of Love" adapted from a famous folklore in Huaguo.Later, Tang told Jason the poignant love story of "The Butterfly Lovers", which also vaguely implied the final parting of life and death between him and Jason.

Because of the tone of the whole movie, all the plots and pictures are very beautiful and romantic.However, in Tang Shi's view, these romantic and beautiful scenes are all bought by actors like them with their blood and sweat - such as now.

"Slap!" A fat, tender and fluffy caterpillar fell from the tree, and landed precisely on Tang Shi's hand holding the leaf by his lips.So Tang Shi took a closer look at the caterpillar, which was covered in hairs and feet, looked horrible, and kept wriggling.

Tang Shi could clearly feel the caterpillar wriggling in his hand, and Tang Shi subconsciously screamed. He jumped up at an incomprehensible speed, and then frantically swung his arms and left under the tree root, as if mentally ill. Wiping his hands, he took off his white shirt in a panic, and called out to Lu Hengzhi, "Come and help me see if you still have anything on you."

And under the root of the big tree, Leon, who was holding a drawing board in the shape of a sentimental pulse, stood up again stunned.Looking at the exaggerated and crazy Tang Shi, who seemed to be sick, I just felt that all the admiration and love for the Chinese boy Tang that remained in my mind had all disappeared——

So if there is too much difference between the real person and the portrayed character, it will really bring endless troubles to the other party who plays the role!

This kind of fine powder rhythm, how can Leon, who has been working hard to brew emotions, enter the drama!
