[From Repair to Pair] [This work is adapted from Mao Shangshu's work]

[Episode 19]

I called several museums

in Beijing

and Shanghai.

They don't have a better way.

So don't waste time on it.

Keep it properly for the time being.

Can I copy

the wood-block print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers?

Copy?

Yes.

I really don't want that

the wood-block print of Qiu Rong Studio

can't be presented to the world again.

We dare not repair

this old wood block with our existing techniques.

Can I

copy a new one?

It's not feasible even if you have techniques.

Look at the missing lines.

What can you use as reference

to make a new wood block?

By imagination?

I remember that

an opera painting

of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers

is collected in the Eastern Chu Folk Museum.

Yes.

That is the only work

left in the world.

So we have a solution.

We can know the missing parts

by comparing it with that painting.

That's a private museum.

They keep close eyes

on that painting at ordinary times.

They won't allow you to visit it.

You can't even see

its partial picture.

But they will display it

for three days

every year.

Yes.

They're displaying it.

But three days are not enough.

It's useless even if it's displayed for 30 days.

You are not allowed to copy it

or take photos

during the display.

Even if you go there,

you can do nothing.

It doesn't matter.

I can remember it with my brain

and paint it on the paper,

so you can take it as reference.

Wang,

I heard it's the last day of the display tomorrow.

Qiu Yuan,

can you do it in one day?

I'm not sure,

but

this is our

only way.

Isn't it?

Buddy,

this girl is interesting.

Be good, Lucky.

Hello.

One piece of good news

and one piece of bad news.

Which one do you want to know first?

The bad one.

The bad news is that I need to work overtime

and can't go to meet you today.

Ask me about the good news.

What's the good news?

The good news is that

I may have a chance to

copy wood-block print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers.

Have a chance?

What does it mean?

There is an opera painting of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers

Eastern Chu Folk Museum.

It's the last display day tomorrow.

As long as I can

keep it in my mind,

I may

have a chance to copy it.

There's only one day. Does it make you so happy?

You should think this way.

They only display it for three days a year.

And I can see it for one day.

It's such a huge luck.

Wish you success.

Do you want your Shit Shoveling Officer

to come back early?

I do.

[Wood-Block Print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers]

Miss,

sorry.

You can't take photos here.

Please put away your mobile phone.

No photos allowed.

I'm sorry.

So many character details.

How can I remember them?

I'm done.

Enough.

Your hair has been pulled off by you.

Why are you here?

You dared to promise to do something you can't do.

You really have no idea of your ability.

It'll be a disgrace

to me as well, not only you.

I have the confidence to do it now,

because you're here to help me.

Stop the flattery.

Try to keep the painting in your mind.

Okay.

You're good at distinguishing colors.

You only need to keep the colors in your mind.

I will keep the lines in my mind.

Okay.

Follow me.

Look at this.

This is the sketch of the wood block

Director Qi and others scanned.

So

you don't need to keep all lines in your mind.

You only need to keep the missing parts

in your mind.

Okay.

I've keep the lines in my mind.

So fast?

You're even faster than a scanner.

It's because I only kept the zones in mind.

Okay.

I thought this could help you

and you would praise me for it.

Thanks to you, a smart girl,

I didn't need to waste time.

Thank you.

Thank you, too.

♫I take up a brush to paint its prime of life♫

♫The sandstorm has taken down time and tide for thousands of years♫

♫My concern in this life♫

Let's go. Let's go.

Or I would forget it.

♫Is to distinguish true from false♫ Have you finished?

♫Is to distinguish true from false♫

♫But love brought me to her♫

♫I play dumb and take only one glance under the roof♫

♫Every day and night lasts only a moment♫

♫Every day and night lasts only a moment♫ I'll do it.

♫I can't extricate myself from my worries♫

♫I draw a picture of her stroke by stroke♫

♫I paint with a bamboo hairpin on paper to set off her cheeks♫

You finished it in such a short time.

You're amazing.

I've drawn the lines.

You will color it next.

Leave it to me.

You can go back to sleep now.

Do you drive me away after utilizing me?

I'm sleepy.

I can't ride.

You didn't ride.

I'm so sleepy that I become muddleheaded.

I need to get some sleep.

Since you're so sleepy,

you have to go back to sleep.

I'm hailing a car for you online.

No, no. No need.

I can just get some sleep here.

I can sleep on the sofa.

Come on. You don't need to hail a car.

You don't need to hail a car.

Don't do that.

Be good.

I've hailed a car for you.

I'm hungry.

Hungry?

They're all yours.

Too cold.

I want to have something hot.

Oh, I almost forget it.

I heated a rice roll just now.

It's still hot.

Here you are.

I would get choked if I eat the rice ball alone.

Is there...

The car has arrived.

You can go.

I'm really going.

I'm going.

Bye-bye. Bye-bye.

I'm really going.

Bye-bye.

Where's my overcoat?

My overcoat...

I remember I put it...

...upstairs yesterday.

Bye-bye.

Have a good sleep.

Don't push me.

I can walk. I can walk.

Don't...

Am I going?

No. Don't push me.

I can walk.

Go. Go home.

Oh...

I'm having hypoglycemia.

I need some sugar.

Or you can let me have a rest here.

Wait a minute.

I'm feeling dizzy. I'm feeling bad.

Can you let me stay here for a while?

Go.

Don't push me out.

Let me stay here.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Xuanxuan,

get in the car.

[Gao Shuo] I'm leaving.

I will miss you.

Miss Liu, get in the car.

Xuanxuan. Xuanxuan. Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan, can I take a photo with you?

Xuanxuan,

let's take a photo.

I like you so much.

Don't be afraid.

I'll be at your side.

Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu,

can you take a group photo for us?

Thank you, Mr. Liu.

Mr. Luo,

when will you make the final payment for today's extras?

[Liu Xuuan is Brilliant] Three, two, one.

Xuanxuan.

It's done.

[Liu Xuan Debuts as the C Position] Thank you, Mr. Liu.

Are you Liu Xuan's fans?

Yes.

Yes, we're all her fans.

Do you all like her very much?

Yes, we like her very much.

Young man,

why do you

like her?

I like

because she has excellent acting skills.

I have no idea whether my daughter

has excellent acting skills or not,

but I think you really should not

take the payment for your acting skills.

Liu Xuan, get in the car.

Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu, hello.

Can you not take Liu Xuan away?

Why?

Because...

Because...

Because she's really good on stage.

Mr. Liu,

when I first saw Liu Xuan,

I just thought she

was rebellious,

liked riding motorcycle

and liked playing cool.

But when I watched her show,

after I saw her performance on the stage,

I really admire

and I really envy her,

because she is shining

when she is on the stage.

I am unaccomplished,

doing what my father asked me to do.

I'm living a dull and dry life.

I'm not happy at all.

So I really envy Liu Xuan.

I even...

I even want to protect her dream.

Our dreams have been broken,

but she still has her dream.

Mr. Liu,

you also had dreams before.

Mr. Liu,

I most envy those

who can truly

find the specialty they like.

We studied hard,

took the college entrance examination

and went to college.

When it was time to choose a major,

many kids

even didn't know

what they liked.

The only standard we followed

to choose a university

was which industry developed well

and which job could let us get a high salary.

Then we work so hard

to support our family.

So Liu Xuan is lucky,

because she likes her job

and she does it very well.

She's really good.

Mr. Liu,

you know your daughter the best.

If you insist it,

she will do as you say

and go home with you.

But if so,

she will no longer

be happy.

Mr. Liu.

Xuanxuan,

come home once a month,

or your mom will be worried about you.

Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan.

Gao Shuo.

Don't do this.

Dad.

Your dad is still here.

Your dad is still here, Xuanxuan.

Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't cry.

Why didn't you read the information I sent to you?

Xuanxuan.

You don't deserve the payment.

Who's that?

You're interrupting my sleep!

I'm sorry.

I didn't know you were sleeping.

Shrimp,

what brings you here?

Mr. Qi said you were painting at home.

I came to see

if you

need any help.

Come in.

How's it going?

How about I send several people

to help you?

I also want someone to help me.

But I have only kept that in my mind,

so others can't help me.

I didn't sleep until noon,

but I still couldn't finish it.

Get some more sleep.

The main purpose

of my visit is to give this to you.

Armor Hero?

When I cleaned up the old house,

I found there were so many left.

They are all here.

You give all these to me?

If you want, they are yours.

A promise is a promise.

You can't go back on your word.

A promise is a promise.

I won't go back on my word.

I won't bother you then.

I'm going to clean up the house.

Okay.

Have some more sleep.

Bye-bye.

Fighting.

The moon is near the green mountain.

Why are you here?

This is my house.

I'm here to clean it up.

Your house?

Didn't Yuan tell you?

She and I are childhood friends.

You're childhood friends who lived together?

Yes.

Are you moving out?

I'm cleaning it up

and moving in.

Qiu Yuan.

Coming.

It's you.

Of course it's me.

Who are you waiting for?

I mean,

I didn't expect you would come back so early.

This is for you.

What's this?

Food.

Wait a minute.

You have to answer me several questions before you eat it.

So I need to take an exam to get the food.

Go ahead.

Why didn't you tell me

you and Zuo Huairen

live in the same yard?

I told you he and I

are childhood friends.

Childhood friends live close to each other.

You didn't say you live so close to each other.

He went abroad at 10,

so he moved out a long time ago.

He is back now,

and he is downstairs.

Hasn't he left?

He just came back to clean up the house.

He hasn't left?

So you know he is back.

Did you take a shower?

And you brushed your teeth.

Are you going out?

What are you going to do?

Have a date?

Are you?

Why do you laugh?

Qiu Yuan.

Why do you laugh?

Tell me.

Why do you laugh?

I just think

you're so lovely when you're jealous.

Answer my questions.

I didn't sleep till noon.

I just woke up and washed.

I asked you to go to bed early

when I left.

I was afraid I would forget the colors.

So

I finished the most difficult part first.

Enjoy the food.

After that, pack up and leave with me.

We're going back to Qingshan Building.

Go back to Qingshan Building?

Why?

Why?

Why do you stay here?

Why don't you go back with me?

He is downstairs. You...

He... he... You...

He has a big house.

He doesn't usually live here.

He came back

to clean up the old house today.

Don't worry.

Even so...

Do you know?

You look like a puffer right now.

You puff up and get angry

as long as someone touches you.

You mean he tried to piss me off on purpose?

Yeah.

Childish.

Hello. This is the takeaway for Qiu Yuan's Dearest.

Hello.

Are you Qiu Yuan's Dearest?

Me?

Here.

Hello.

Have a nice meal.

Naughty girl.

Would you like to join us?

No, thanks.

Thank you.

But you're in my way.

Okay.

Take it.

Let me help you.

Come on.

I'm going back.

It's not heavy.

Why does it take you so long?

You're weak.

Can you leave now?

I need to wait for the new furniture.

Can you drop it for me?

I'm leaving.

Is this the legendary candlelit dinner?

But it's not dark yet.

They're too hungry to wait until dark.

Qiu Yuan,

is that your boyfriend?

Yes.

Then it must be true love.

How come? Tell me about it.

Because you are so poor

that you eat here.

However, Qiu Yuan still likes you.

She must love you truly.

Did you finish your homework?

Go.

Are we really going to dine here?

Yes.

Why do we have to stay inside

when the yard is so nice?

Come on. Enjoy it.

Enjoy it.

Come on.

You can go home since you're tired.

You don't have to stay with me.

I'm not leaving tonight.

Well…

I…

What?

So soon?

I'm not ready yet.

There is a hole in my pajamas.

No.

I hope you don't try to do

anything to me.

No,

I don't.

I don't know why you're staying at my place.

I don't trust you to color alone.

Why?

Did you forget

I'm a tetrachromat?

You are,

but you're the one with a bad taste.

Look at this blanket.

What an eye-popping color!

How can I trust you

to color alone?

Give it back to me.

Give it back to me.

Give it back to me.

Stop it.

Give it back to me.

Stop it.

Give it back to me.

Stop it.

Bad taste?

Give it back to me.

Give me back my blanket.

Stop it.

Give it back to me.

Stop it.

Give it back to me.

Are you all right?

How are you?

Are you okay?

Get up.

Get up.

Get back to your work.

Keep away from me.

I'm still young.

I don't want to die yet.

It doesn't

look much different from the original, does it?

Qiu Yuan,

you are so amazing.

Not bad.

Cool. Cool.

How did you do it

in such a short time?

I got a helper.

Did you?

Yes.

Qin Zhiyuan helped me

finish it.

Qin Zhiyuan?

Yes.

He drew a sketch

and I colored it.

We worked together

to get it done fast.

Mr. Wang,

now that I have this copy,

can I reproduce

wood-block print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers?

Qi,

I'm afraid

we are short of time and money.

I'll figure it out.

But

can you produce

wood-block print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers,

Qiu Yuan?

Now that I have this painting as a reference,

I think I can do it.

Director Qi,

may I have a try?

I can't wait to see

the day

when it is reprinted.

Hello.

Here is master's favorite takeaway.

Hello.

Are you the master?

Yes.

Here is your takeaway.

Enjoy your meal.

Gao Shuo.

What's up?

Okay, I'll be right there.

[Yuxin Studio] Mr. Wang.

Here you are.

Qin.

This is Mr. Wang Ying

from Zhifei Law Firm.

He's my childhood friend.

This is Qin Zhiyuan,

a repair expert at Yuxin Studio.

Hello, Mr. Qin.

Just call me Wang.

I have something to consult you today.

I'd like to ask you to check something.

Take a seat.

Then you guys talk first.

I'll make some tea.

Mr. Qin,

here’s the thing.

There are some pictures on here

that I'd like you to take a look at.

Mr. Wang, I'm curious

why you came to me.

Of course I trust your vision.

I'm a repairer,

not an appraiser.

I'm afraid what I say can't carry much weight.

You've got the wrong person.

Gao Shuo often

talks about you,

so I came to ask for advice.

It doesn't matter if what you say carries weight.

Please just tell us frankly.

Our client suspected that there was something wrong with the artifacts

and entrusted our firm to deal with them.

This is one of them.

You put it on the table.

Take it up.

Is it real

or…

It's a fake.

But the counterfeiters spared no expense

and were very good at it.

Such a vivid fake

is not the work

of ordinary counterfeiters eager to make a quick buck.

Thank you, Mr. Qin.

Although this is a personal visit,

please keep this to yourself

as it is related to official business.

Director Qi.

Director Qi.

Director Qi.

Leave me alone.

Go on.

OK.

Come on in.

You have a big office, Shrimp.

No,

Mr. Zuo.

Take a seat.

I beg you.

don't call me Mr. Zuo.

I'm not used to meeting you

in such a formal way,

but we should get used to it.

Why?

By the unanimous decision of

the Institute of Antiquities,

you are formally invited to join us.

Really?

This time, when you reproduced

wood-block print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers,

all the experts and research team members

involved in the project

praised you to me.

Your talent and hard work

is there for all to see.

What about Director Qi?

It was Mr. Qi who nominated you.

He seems strict,

but he really cherishes talents.

That's great,

but…

You're worried that Qin Zhiyuan won't agree, huh?

I promised him

to go back after finishing the job.

Yuan,

if you want to be

a repairer like my father,

the Institute of Antiquities is the best for you.

We have the most advanced equipment

and the most experienced experts.

You have too much talent

to stay in Qingshan Building.

It's your decision,

of course.

You have to talk it over with him.

Let me think about it.

Do you like it?

You guys,

we have a promotion

in our store now.

The lowest price for a romantic wedding photo package

is 5,999 yuan.

Go in and have a look.

No, thanks.

We're not planning on getting married yet.

Hold on.

Listen,

our store also offers

services like couple photo.

You look like a perfect couple.

You guys would look great

in a photo shoot.

She said we are a perfect couple.

Let's go inside and have a look.

It's free to have a look.

Go.

Let's go.

Youqian.

Youqian.

Xixi,

thank you so much

for being in my life.

I…

Wedding photo promotion.

Wedding photo promotion.

Wrong music.

Who played it?

Change it at once.

More discounts are offered in the store.

Can't I be serious for one more second?

I forgot my lines.

Xixi,

your tenderness, kindness and sincerity

deeply attract me.

I'm the happiest person

in the world

when I'm with you.

I have a greedy idea.

I want to open my eyes with you

every morning,

and kiss you

every night before going to bed.

You are the best gift in my life.

I want you to live

a happy life all your life.

Will you marry me?

My grandma

gave this ring to my mom.

I know

I can't afford a big diamond ring for you now.

I also know that its style is a bit rustic,

but this is a ring passed down

from the Luo family to its daughter-in-law.

Will you marry me?

Yes, I do.

Great.

Wonderful.

Thank you,

Director Qi.

No need.

You've had a hard time.

I heard from Wang that

you work overtime until late at night every day.

I don't work hard at all.

I enjoy carving so much

every day.

Now there are few opportunities

to carve woodblocks,

and this is the work

in the heyday of Qiu Rong Studio.

I even think that

the engraving skill I learned

from my grandma

is to reproduce that woodblock.

This is my mission.

So I have to thank you

for letting me stay.

A craftsman is lucky enough

to come across

a piece of work he has

devoted his life to.

And I always

owe you an apology.

When you came to the Institute of Antiquities to join

the repair of wood-block print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers,

I disagreed at first.

Then he came to see me,

and I realized that I had wronged you

about that painting.

You mean my master?

He never told me about it.

He's such a person

I always thought that

you and my master were incompatible.

It sounds like you know him very well.

We are indeed incompatible.

What's the matter with you two?

It's a long story.

Go ahead with your own business.

Lucky,

I'm back.

Did you miss me?

What?

You say yes.

Did you hear that?

It said it misses me.

I'm going to take it back.

Lucky,

would you prefer to live here?

Look,

I think Lucky would prefer to live here.

Since it misses you,

maybe you should just move back in.

In fact, I came back today

to discuss one thing with you.

Zuo Huairen told me that

even Director Qi

has agreed to my formal employment.

Formal employment?

You know,

it may take a year or so

to finish wood-block print of Thirteen Peking Opera Performers.

Besides, I'm really smart,

cute, clever

and charming,

so they probably

want to keep me.

So what do you think?

I'll listen to you.

That set of woodblocks

means something special to you.

I have no reason to object.

The Institute of Antiquities

can also give play to your engraving skills.

They got various experts

and the best equipment.

It is a good choice.

You should work there.

You can object, too.

I'm not that cheap.

Indeed.

Director Qi is right.

You're such a person.

What did he say about me?

He said you are a great guy

and secretly begged him for me.

I didn't.

You did.

Who begged him?

No, I didn’t.

Why don't you like Director Qi?

I used to

hate him, too,

but since I worked

at the Institute of Antiquities,

I've noticed that

he's a little stuffy,

but he's actually a nice guy.

"Getting Started with Wood-block Printing"

of "From Repair to Pair"

One Block with Multiple Colors and Multiple Blocks with Multiple Colors of the God of Door

Since its invention,

wood-block printing has gradually developed

from single-color wood-block printing to multi-block multi-color overprint printing

through continuous innovation.

Let's experience wood-block printing today.

First, prepare a reverse drawing of the same size as the block,

[Single-Color Wood-Block Printing Process] transfer it to the woodblock with carbon paper,

and then use a knife

to cut lines along the figure,

so that our woodblock is engraved.

Then, roll the ink evenly on the woodblock with oil,

align a piece of rice paper with the layout,

and rub it with a wood mushroom.

Such a woodblock can be used to print more than two colors,

that is, one block with multi colors.

[After learning single-block single-color printing, the next is multi-block multi-color printing]

Multi-color wood-block printing requires us

to transfer the colored part

and engrave again.

After that, fix the position

and overprint different colors on the same paper,

so that the multi-color printing is completed.
