Chapter 49 The most beautiful words in this world are Chinese characters
Captain Jiang Namjoon's eyes fell on Jiang Liu on the stage. Looking at this young man in the country style in Long Kingdom, Jiang Namjoon felt unwilling to accept it. Their group put in a lot of effort and sweat. They rehearsed until the early morning last night and only slept for three hours during the day.
I worked so hard just to win the first place in the game.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Kang Nam-joon also knew that he was going to lose. He roughly knew where he lost.
The opponent is strong in costumes, dances, and song styles that are too ethnic.
Very creative!
Even he likes it very much.
Kang Nam-joon also knew that the song "Blue and White Porcelain" sung by eight groups was an original song, which was a higher level.
Each member of the seven groups is not weak, and the whole performance is close to perfection, so he still loses.
Losing from creativity.
Their song "Outside-Castle" is a passionate song.
I thought there was no problem with the selection of songs, but compared with the eight groups of "Blue and White Porcelain", it lacked novelty. There were too many performances like Jinge and Hot Dance, and the audience should have seen a lot, which is not uncommon.
As for performances like "Blue and White Porcelain", Kang Nam-joon rarely watches performances, let alone the audiences on the scene.
Therefore, it is not unfair to lose.
"That's great, Jiang Liu, Gao Yang, Lin Nan, Miha, your performance is so cool!" The voice of the judge Craig teacher.
"I like the fan in your hands very much. Can you take a look?" Another judge, David, stood up, left the seat and walked onto the stage.
Seeing this, Jiang Liu went up to him and gave the folding fan in his hand to the teacher.
Brush ~~
Teacher David turned on the folding fan.
A camera gave the fan a special lens, and I saw this white fan with azaleas and dancing butterflies painted on the fan, and there was a poem on it.
"It feels very chic." Teacher David slapped, then asked Jiang Liu, "What does this mean in Chinese?"
"This is a poem." Jiang Liu replied, and then explained to the audience below, "Poetry is a traditional literary genre of the Dragon Kingdom, which reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty. This poem on the fan is the poem "Black Se" by Li Shangyin, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty in my country."
"Oh, can you read it?" said Teacher David.
"Yes, then I'll use Chinese?"
I don't know how to translate English.
"Can."
Many viewers in the audience were curious.
Jiang Liu looked at the audience, took a step forward, standard Mandarin, and recited:
"Li Shangyin of Tang Dynasty"
"The brocade ser is fifty strings, one string and one pillar thinks about the Chinese New Year."
"Zhuang Sheng was confused about butterflies in Xiaomeng, and Emperor Wang was entrusted with the cuckoo in his spring heart."
"The moon in the sea has tears, and the sun in the blue field is warm and the jade produces smoke."
"This love can be remembered, but it was already lost at that time."
Wow~~
Many viewers showed fascination.
Although I can't understand it, I think poetry is an elegant art.
"Smack!"
There was applause from the audience.
"It's great!" Teacher David applauded and said, "Although I can't understand a sentence, I can feel that this poem is beautiful."
While speaking, Teacher David returned the fan to Jiang Liu, and then asked curiously: "The "Blue and White Porcelain" you just sang, this song talks about the porcelain of Longguo blue and white porcelain. I think there are many netizens who watched the live broadcast on the scene who are curious. I want to know what blue and white porcelain is. Can you introduce it?"
"Of course." Jiang Liu was very happy.
"Blue and white porcelain is one of the mainstream varieties of Chinese porcelain. Why is it called blue and white porcelain? The reason is that this kind of porcelain uses a cobalt ore containing cobalt oxide as the raw material, depicts patterns on the ceramic body, and then covers a layer of transparent glaze, which is fired at high temperature.
The cobalt material is blue after firing and brightly colored.
Who do you know that blue and white porcelain is actually blue, so why is it called blue and white porcelain not blue and white porcelain?”
Jiang Liu asked with a smile.
"I don't know." David shook his head.
Many viewers in the audience shook their heads... Alas, wait a moment, in the second row below the audience, a foreign audience in their forties wearing glasses raised their hands.
A staff member immediately gave him a topic.
The foreign audience wearing glasses stood up and spoke in Chinese: "Hello Jiang Liu, I am an art teacher at the University of Dental Dental B. I have been to Longguo several times."
"Hello teacher, you speak very well in Chinese."
This art teacher does speak very well in Chinese.
"I know that blue and white porcelain is not called blue flower porcelain because blue is a kind of blue."
"The teacher is right." Jiang Liu praised, saying: "In our country, cyan is an abstract concept, which actually includes blue, green and black. Xunzi's "Encouragement" chapter contains 'Blue is better than blue'. The original meaning of blue is blue, and cyan is blue, and cyan is blue and transcends blue, so in our ancient times, cyan is probably equivalent to the color of blue indigo."
After a pause, Jiang Liu noticed that many viewers were listening, and said in more detail, and then said: "In addition, blue can also mean black, such as blue hair and blue shirts all mean black."
"As for blue and white porcelain, not called blue and white porcelain, there is another meaning.
"Shuowen Jiezi" says: "Qing is an oriental color", which means that blue is the color with the most oriental cultural charm.
The scientific name of blue and white is "underglaze blue". Because the blue material of "underglaze blue" is often used to depict floral patterns, it is called blue and white.
After experiencing the poetic culture of the Tang and Song dynasties, China naturally named it from the perspective of literati poetic culture. Blue flower porcelain is too direct and has no aesthetic sense. Since blue contains blue, it is not without accuracy and poetic, and it spreads."
"Well said!"
In the hotel room, Director Zhang applauded in "Awakening Age".
Not to mention these foreigners on the show, even the native Long Guo people, know that there is so much knowledge about blue and white porcelain and the name of blue and white porcelain.
Increased knowledge.
"Chinese characters are really profound."
"The most beautiful words in this world are Chinese characters."
"It is a poetic nation - from Shouer netizens"
"Jiang Shen is really promoting our traditional culture very seriously - from Shangdan University, the Magic City."
Many barrages have been browsed in the live broadcast room.
On the stage, Jiang Liu was still communicating with the judges until the judges reminded all viewers not to forget to vote.
The scene became quiet.
All 500 viewers picked up the voting machine.
Being nervous.
Jiang Liu, Gao Yang, Miha and others' heartbeats began to accelerate.
"We can, we have confidence." Miha whispered.
"Yes, we can do it." TAN clenched his fists unconsciously.
How many viewers will vote in the end?
Ambassador Zhao, Mrs. Zhao widened her eyes.
In the girls' apartment at the University of Thackeray, Eva and more than a dozen girls all held their breath one by one.
Chapter completed!
