When the popcorn machines on the street make a loud "boo" sound, the children cover their ears and hide away, and their eyes show a desire for snacks, as if it is the New Year. With the rapid development of Shanghai, the shouting and selling in the old lanes is not often heard. As a result, Zhao Peiyi created a miniature model of the palm-sized popcorn machine, and the grains of rice aroma spread out again and again in his studio.
Zhao Peiyi after 85 was originally a jewelry designer, originally Xiao Zhao just wanted to use the miniature model to practice his craft, but he did not expect to receive a lot of attention and love on the short video platform, and began to slowly create a full-time miniature model. In just over two years, more than 200 works have been produced.
"When I designed, I first considered using the function, and then I thought about how to do it more like", all the models made by Xiao Zhao are real and usable. Mini briquette stoves can make water on fire, small scissors can cut paper, and the old-fashioned butterfly brand sewing machine has an accuracy as small as 0.05 mm, and the up and down threads can be moved freely. All the objects are placed in the street scene of the old alley that has been carefully observed and arranged, and the pattern of the tiles and the damaged pavement completely and perfectly reproduce the scenes of childhood life and the appearance of old Shanghai in the memory.
"I do short videos mainly on the use of old objects, because there are some children who have only seen what this thing looks like, but they don't know how to use it." For Xiao Zhao, it is a happy thing to think about how to make a model every day, and the recognition of the same good is his relief. At the same time, being able to do his part to preserve the style of old Shanghai has made him more and more determined on this road.
