This wish finally realized.\" After the construction of the stage was completed, Ge Zhaolong named this work- \"Life · Studios\".

Ge Zhaolong is creating \"Life · The Studios\".

When he saw Ge Zhaolong, he was almost lying on a piece of wood, using his hands and eyes, and was drawing a round flower bone for a carved flower plate.

The carpenter is carved, his eyes are the ruler, and you have to stare at the wood on hand. The right hands are indispensable. \"This is a meticulous work!\" The engraved knife went to the end, Ge Zhaolong's hands loosened and turned back to tell reporters.

\"Life · Theater\" is also forming in such a fine carving -this is a wooden antique stage with eaves corners, carved beams and paintings. Format, 6.6 meters high, 5.3 meters long, width, 0.6 meters from the ground, half of the common stage, can be used or used for performance.

For it, some readers may not be unfamiliar. In August 2021, the 5th Zhejiang Arts and Crafts Biennale was held at the Zhejiang Exhibition Hall. 222 works staged a \"Treasure Show\" in Zhejiang folk art. \"Life · Play\" is among them.

\"Life · Theater\" is the largest volume of the \"Shanhua Awards\" works in this \"Mountain Flower Award\". To move it to the participating scene, you must use a container to carry. \"At that time, more than 10 professional craftsmen spent five or six days to disassemble and assemble with the class.\" Ge Zhaolong recalled.

Today, after this behemoth \"traveling\", he returned to Ge Zhaolong's old house after several times. Standing on the steps of the theater, he told reporters the story behind the stage.

\"Life · Tskuma \"\" Exquisite algae.

\"Look, this is Azaojing, the most difficult part of the entire work.\" Along in his signal, the reporter looked up and saw the spiral algae well on the stage blooming like a flower layer. The shape circled from right to the left is made of layers of 16 layers of wood components, and layers of layers into a horn -shaped shape.

It is amazing that this exquisite work consists of more than 9,000 wooden components, but there is no nail. \"These are overlapped with the tenon -and -mortise structure.\" Ge Zhaolong said, \"All need to be strictly seamless, otherwise you can't fight.\"

In addition, carving, round carving, transparent carving and other carvings were used in the stage production. Method. \"The selection of ingredients is also very particular. The use of camphor wood, black beef, and old cypress wood, which are all woods.\" Ge Zhaolong said.

I have longed for it since childhood

The stage is \"sacred place\"

Ninghai known as \"the hometown of Chinese ancient theaters culture hometown \"\". Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there have been aaters in the temples and ancestral halls in Ninghai. Today, there are more than 120 local operas in the local area, of which 10 are national key cultural relics protection units. The prototype of \"Life · Theater\" is one of the national key cultural relics protection units -Ninghai County Chenghuang Temple Ancient aater.

Ge Zhaolong can not be familiar with this ancient stage. During the year in 2017, he ran more than 20 trips here, as if he was watching the drama as a child as a child, he took a closer look at the stage, and it would take half a day every time. \"Don't look at these woods. It seems to be ordinary. This is the soul of the Ninghai opera culture.\"

When he fell in love with the Taiwan culture, Ge Zhaolong was still a child. He often went to the village's ancient drama in the village. He squatted and sat in front of the stage, and grew up listening to the gongs. \"For me, the stage is a sacred place, and he has longed for it since he was a child.\" Ge Zhaolong Said, he has always wanted to build an antique stage at home.

The ideal is full, and the reality is very \"skinny\". Imitation of the ancient drama, it takes time and money, it is easy to talk about it! Ge Zhaolong had pondered in his heart for a long time. First of all, face a very realistic question, too much cost. In recent years, although he saved some money, he was not enough to bear the cost. \"What are you doing, a lot of money?\" At first, his wife asked.

However, as the thoughts in their hearts became more and more intense, Ge Zhaolong finally couldn't hold back to the like -minded friends, \"I want to do it if I lose money.\" Unexpectedly, when Ge Zhaolong said, friends responded. The arrow had to be sent on the string. He took a few craftsmen and got it with his teeth.

From the wind collection to the design, from the production of components to the overall construction, to improvement and improvement, this purely hand -made \"ancient theater\" costs nearly 4,000 working hours before and after. \"The drawings have been drawn for a year, and the sculpting components have been used for more than two years. After these are ready, we will start the stage in this yard.Repeatedly, it took another year to complete. It took a total of 5 years before and after. \"Ge Zhaolong said.

\" It takes so long to draw a drawing? \" Facing the confusion of reporters, Ge Zhaolong answered patiently -when repairing the ancient drama, the components could be removed by layer, picked out the damaged part for repair or replacement, and then assembled them one by one. The \"\" A proportion of \"a cloning\" is reduced by half, and it is also integrated into the ancient drama of Ninghai. It is equivalent to starting from \"white paper\" without ready -made information. After running one trip, as soon as I came to the ancient drama, I sat down and thought about the skills of the ancestors' mouthful, and combined with the practical experience of cultivating the ancient drama for many years, describing and cut every one on the thin wooden board on the thin wooden board, cut out every one of the theater on the table stage. Components. After proofing, we can stitch one by one to see the effect. Architecture

More than 10 years of demand has become stronger

\"Are there any projects doing recently? \"The reporter asked.\" How can the project be available, there has always been. \"Ge Zhaolong said.

Ge Zhaolong is indeed very busy. After finishing the big project of\" Life · Play \", he has not stopped, and recently began to be busy repairing Dunyi Hall. Yitang is located in Lingkou Village, Xidian Town, Ninghai County. It is a typical ancestral temple building in the East Zhejiang area in the early Qing Dynasty. It covers an area of \u200b\u200babout 1,200 square meters. ] Ge Zhaolong learned the art at the age of 18, and once walked south to the north by relying on the superb wooden skills. Later, the industry -style was slightly lowered. He once put down the toolbox in his hand and started a small business. In the context of rural rejuvenation, there is a place of use.

In 2011, Ge Zhaolong found that there were more and more demand for ancient buildings, so he shouted that he was a capable craftsman in Bali in the four township and set up an ancient building repair team. , Starting to undertake a variety of ancient building restoration projects. Since 2014, they have repaired more than 160 ancient buildings.

Ge Zhaolong has a natural complex for old objects. In the eyes of others, a piece of others. Pupongtong and even the ruined old street, in his opinion, is a treasure, a roof, a wood carving, and a tile, he has to take it with a mobile phone. In his mobile phone album, the ancient building restoration site and these are these The most pictures of old objects.

\"Everyone's protection of ancient buildings pays more and more attention. The \"heritage\" of these ancestors made me awe, and I must protect it. \"Ge Zhaolong said.
