"Humanistic Pan House" craftsmen - Zhou Guanghong, Wang Jinlong

Fangji

Zhou Guanghong (1868-1941), also known as Mengquan, because he specialized in chaigen carving, he called himself Chai Zhuren, commonly known as "Hongshi", a Tangtou person, born on June 17, 1868, the seventh year of Tongzhi (1868). When he was young, his family had a slightly thin yield, but he was not good at financial management, and he had to work with money, regardless of the amount. In his later years, he was impoverished, and only one root carving in the broken cabinet remained. Since childhood, he has loved painting, tried to conspire with his father, and because he has learned to be a florist, he has been with his teacher for many years and has not grown in his career. He is a tiangao master, a native of Xitangxia, Tonghua Township, whose stage name is broadcast in Jinhua and Lanxi counties. So He invited him to his home, and he studied painting at night, and he obtained his essence and followed the subtlety of his art. Do not forget the teacher's kindness, the teacher is like a father, the teacher is old, he is raised at home, waits for the teacher's death, takes care of the aftermath, and is buried in the mountain behind the head of the church. Because the door of enlightenment and art is only the word "sincerity", the disciples also adhere to this path, and neighboring counties are admiring the art learners one after another. Around the seventh year of the Republic of China (1918), there were as many as eighteen apprentices, more than 100 apprentices in their lifetime, and peach and plum all over Zhejiang. Songxi Xu Xinquan and former Wu Gengzheng are all tall.

Pingsheng and Zhu Xingsheng of Puyang Town are friendly and exchange skills. Xingsheng can poetry and painting, and also fine sculpture, while Guanghong can carve and paint can not make poetry. Because of the acquisition of Huang Shangqing's poems in the middle of the compromise, recited day and night, poetry and painting are combined, and the works are colorful.

Fu Chinese New Year's Eve debuted, often traveling between Pujiang Sanduyuan and Jiande Shangxia Jiang, because of the local bamboo, he took bamboo root carving, and was rumored to be the founder of Puyi bamboo root carving. In addition to creating handicrafts, most of them are decorated and engraved for ancestral halls, temples, theaters, pavilions and buildings. Thousands of works of his lifetime were circulated in neighboring counties. In Lufeng Township, the ancestral halls such as the New Hall Cunyi Hall, the East Chen Dunmu Hall, the Lower Yang Lihe Hall, and the Shigu Huaide Hall are carved with the hand of Guanghong. He died on September 13, 1941, the 30th year of the Republic of China.

GuangHong Su was puffy and dirty, his clothes were not neat, he often wore a green cloth shirt, and his feet wore pu shoes, resembling a beggar shape. However, he is proficient in bamboo and wood carving, a knife, a "flower board", rotating and engraving, exhaustive and exquisite. Where the mountains and grass, the smoke clouds, the wind and the moon, the characters of the buildings, the birds and animals, all jumped into the board. Yu Xi root carving, every time he gets a plant, he burns smoke and gazes, judges its natural form, and suddenly has gains, he plays the knife vigorously, changes and chisels, and endows it with spirituality. On the bamboo root plant, it can make the fairy song flutter, the warbler chirps, and the shepherd boy sings, which is ingenious and interesting.

There are works such as "Eight Immortals Chart", "Shou Xing Tu", "Luo Han Tu", "Morning Glory Weaver Girl", "Water Flooding Golden Mountain" and so on. He is the author of "Carving Notation" and "Carving Technique".

Wang Jinlong (1891-1971) was born in Linchuan County, Jiangxi, and later moved to Tangxi and relocated to Wulangzhong Village, Panzhai. In the fourteenth year, he entered the New Year class to learn art and was a small worker. When the weak crown is out of the red stage, it wins the praise of the audience. In the second year of the Republic of China (1913), he was greatly favored by Chengdong Dayun and the class master Chen Youyan in Puyang Town, and was invited to perform at the Zhou Xuanwang Temple in the north of the city. On the first night, he performed "Fire Burning Zidu", changed his face five times, won the applause of the audience, and was honored by Chen Zun as a guest. Later, his family settled in Pujiang and became the "pillar" of the drama class, and the audience called his drama class the "Golden Dragon Class". The folk proverb "Golden Dragon Class Enters the Village and Squeezes Through the Theater Gate", which is famous in Pujiang. He has performed in Dayunhe, Zhang Qingyun, Jin Qinghe, Huang Ronghe, New Year Class and New Year Stage, and his acting performances have become popular.

The golden dragon is dignified in appearance, handsome in literary drama, and mighty in martial arts. The performance is real and delicate, with a distinct personality and full of passion, shaping many characters. For example, in "Dragon and Tiger Fighting", he played the seven-year-old Hu Yanzan, showing the innocent and lively childlike personality such as crying and laughing, playing Lai, and wabu, playing Liu Chengmei in "Double Edge", and Playing Shen Guisheng in "Jade Dragonfly", which is even more into the wood. Chen Shimei, played in "Three Officials Hall", is the most evocative, and the psychological changes of "stuffiness, anger, fear, and hatred" are vividly expressed. "Giving the official" was folded, and only three sentences of recitation were performed for nearly ten minutes, which was gripping. Playing Shen Guisheng in the traditional drama "Jade Dragonfly" in Pujiang Random Bomb, the "bright fire and fire extinguishing" action in the compromise of "Three Tai Frying Medicine" is his unique stunt. In "Ma Chao Chasing Cao", he successfully shaped Ma Chao, performed wonderfully, and was quite famous in Jinhua, Quzhou, Yanzhou and Northeast Jiangxi, and the audience could not get tired of watching it, known as "Live Horse Chao". This play has become his best play, and it must be performed on every stage.

The golden dragon is 1 meter 63 tall, and he knows that his figure is short, so he figures out a suitable stage performance action, and when he appears, he is like a jade carving, with beautiful lines. Its age, stature and performance method are similar to Gai Called Heaven, so it has the reputation of Pujiang Random Bomb "Cover Called Heaven". In the past 50 years of stage practice, the character performance pays attention to the temperament, pays attention to the beauty of the shape, sings in martial arts, forms its own artistic style, and has a crisp and neat in the steady practice and calmness, and the performance is unique. I felt the five taboos of the actor's expression on the stage, that is, "singing is forbidden to have a sound without words, reading white is taboo without rhythm, avoiding sitting without a face, avoiding face expressionlessness, and avoiding looking at non-eyes is powerless."

In August 1954, he participated in the first opera observation conference in Zhejiang Province, playing Xue Gang in the traditional drama "Jiu Xi Gong" and Min Loss in "Lu Hua Tidbits", and won the second prize. He trained Lou Dongmei, Qiu Guangdu and other famous young students who were bombed in Pujiang. He died of illness in Quzhou in 1971.
