Chapter 432: Appearance
In fact, speaking of it, pulling your face is the most technical method to change your face.
It draws the face makeup on one piece of silk in advance, cuts it, ties a pair of silk threads on each face, and then sticks it on the face one by one. The silk threads are tied to a convenient but unobtrusive part of the clothes, such as a belt.
As the plot progresses, under the cover of dance moves, it is pulled down one by one. For example, the Boy's Purple Gold Bowl in "The Legend of White Snake" can turn into seven or eight different faces, including green, red, white, and black. For example, the Thief in "The Old Master Tower", Nie Long in "Wangniangtan" also uses face-pulling.
It is difficult to pull the face. First, there should be no too much adhesive to stick to the face makeup, so as not to pull it off at that time, or to pull all the face makeup off at once. Second, the movements should be clean and neat, and the fake movements should be clever and able to cover the audience's eyes.
In fact, there are indeed some magic techniques in it, and Mu Yang has certain advantages in learning these. For example, there are many things in his space, let alone these masks for performances.
In fact, there is another more profound performance method, which is to put the torn mask on the face, and directly put the torn mask back on the face with a quick method. This technique is not something that ordinary people can play with. Chang Maonian will not succeed every time, and it will not be seen by the audience, so he rarely uses this method.
However, Mu Yang could do it. After learning various methods, he was very arrogant. Chang Maonian gave Mu Yang a set of masks he made himself, with a total of thirty-six pieces, all of which were traditional masks.
Mu Yang was not stingy and gave them a house. In this way, the Chang family truly had their own home in this foreign country.
Mu Yang gave them a house because he learned his unique skills. It was a pleasure to see a fellow villager in this place far away from his motherland. You must know that Mu Yang really didn’t see other Chinese in Malmo, and the two became friends again. How could Mu Yang let them continue to board others’ roofs?
During the Anti-Japanese War, Mu Yang got the trapped performance props and equipment. He returned to the dormitory and put the big box on the table.
I opened the box, took out a cloak and put it on my body, shook the cloak and put it on a shape. I felt that I had not forgotten the little things I learned before.
Put the masks on my face one by one, and after I put on the hat, I went to the office without doing any other makeup.
"Who is this?"
"Is it a rehearsal?"
Someone saw Mu Yang walking towards the office in costumes, and they followed him curiously to see what was going on.
After entering the room, Mu Yang shook his cloak, put on a pose, and said, "Brother Qian, how do you feel?" Mu Yang was wearing a thick mask and talking in his mouth was a little buzzing.
"Oh, Mu Yang. I really didn't expect that you still have this skill." Qian Chang said with a smile.
Only then did everyone realize that this guy in costume was Mu Yang, and everyone became more interested. This was more interesting than watching professional performances.
Soon, even Director Cui and several other deputy consuls general came to the office.
"Dear leaders, you all come here. I'm under a lot of pressure." Mu Yang said buzzingly.
Director Cui laughed and said, "If Xiao Mu has any skills, he will show you everything. When introducing them to the officials from the Texas education department, he will also let them know. Are the people from our Ministry of Foreign Affairs also versatile?"
Everyone cheered in unison, but it was hard to say whether there was a cheering inside.
Mu Yang opened the venue and made a show. He took the cloak in one hand and turned around in the middle, then shook his face slightly, shouted softly, and his face changed into other colors, and his right hand touched his face, which changed again. After several consecutive times, Mu Yang finished his performance.
"I'm in a hurry to prepare, only these are the few. Mr. Cui, do you think it's okay?" Mu Yang asked.
"I think it's very good. It shows the opera art of our country and has novel elements. I believe that children will like to watch this more. Mu Yang is good. Qian Chang told me just now that we can't find a suitable performer here. You volunteer to solve the consulate's problems. This positive attitude is worthy of praise." Director Cui said.
Mu Yang expressed his happiness after being praised by his leader.
"Please rest assured, leader, I will complete this task." Mu Yang said.
Three days later, open day.
A bus was parked in front of the consulate, and a group of 14 or 15-year-old teenagers were chattering and jumping out of the car, looking at the building in front of them curiously.
"Bill, is this the Chinese Embassy?" a boy asked.
Another boy curled his lips and said, "It's the consulate."
There were reception staff outside the Houston Consulate General. Under the guidance of the teacher, the children entered the consulate. Director Cui and three deputy consuls general shook hands and greeted the Houston education department officials who were accompanying him, and everyone also walked into the consulate.
The children came to the functional area, and there was a projector, and the promotional video was playing on it. The children sat on the ground. Liu Ru in the office was wearing a small black suit and light makeup, explaining to the children some fields, buildings, and animals that appeared on the picture, so that the children had a general impression of China.
"Irene, I have been there, the Great Wall. I went to China with my family two years ago and visited the Great Wall. The building is so big that I can't see the end." Martin said.
"Are you showing off to me? I have also gone to the zoo to see the giant pandas in China. Look, aren't you talking about giant pandas now?" Erin obviously didn't catch a cold about the boy beside her.
Martin was disappointed.
When talking about Chinese national opera, Liu Ru said: "The picture now is an introduction to Chinese opera. China has a vast territory and different operas in various places. You can understand it as Chinese opera. Opera is a treasure of China."
"Here, we have also prepared opera performances for all the students, and the performers are our embassy staff, and Quzhongchuan Opera changed his face."
After Liu Ru finished speaking, she stepped down, and then the accompaniment of opera sounded from the sound next to her. There was no way, there was no live performer here, so she could only replace it with the CD.
With the sound of drums, a figure flipped out from the side, turned over several beautifully in the air, landed steadily on the field, and made a beautiful appearance position.
