The magician described in the previous introduction is about 100 words.
Under normal circumstances, when people portray characters, they always start from the front, describe their shape, copy their appearance, imitate their sound, draw their state, and draw their hearts. Together with the wonderful pen, the characters in the works are lifelike and lifelike. For example, there are two movements in Lu's weeping willow: "Get up early and kick Li Si into the cesspit with his right foot. Zhang San was about to leave when Shen Zhi got up early with his left foot. Two local ruffians were kicking and making trouble in the cellar. Twenty or thirty broken houses in the back were too scared to move. " It is these two feet that kill the spirit of the rascal. "Shen Zhi took a deep look, walked under the tree, took off his straight leg, turned his right hand down, turned his body upside down, but pulled up his left hand, grabbed his waist and uprooted Populus davidiana." The description of the two movements in this paper gives us a vivid picture of shrewdness, competence and power. Look at the language description in the article again: when Zhang Lisan was kicked into the cesspit by himself and begged for mercy, he said to other local ruffians, "You ruffians, pick up the bird and I will spare your life." ..... You fool, go to the garden and have a wash, and then talk to all of you. "It can be seen that although Shen Zhi is rude, he is kind-hearted, sensible and knowledgeable. Then he asked the villain, "you birds, don't hide from your family." What kind of bird are you to tease your family? "You can regard the nature of deep wisdom and evil as hatred. In the article "Biography of the Great Tiezhui", the author vividly describes the Great Tiezhui from the aspects of appearance, language and movement. Write that he "looks sleepy", "doesn't wear a crown, doesn't wear socks, has a blue towel on his head and a white cloth on his feet", which shows his simplicity from his appearance; And the waist is more platinum ",suggesting that" big iron vertebra "goes out in the middle of the night to kill horse thieves and take their things; There is a big iron vertebra under the right rib, which emphasizes that he always holds the vertebra and leads him to swing calmly to show his outstanding martial arts. Write his "uncommon words", saying that when he left the Song family, the general was "useless" and told General Song to be "careful" when dueling, with a short and lively tone; In particular, "I'm leaving" three times, refusing General Song's help, and only saying the word "stop" are firm and powerful, showing his deep and self-confidence in language. Write that he has divine power, "health"; Jingwu, come and go without a trace; Especially in a duel on a starry night, he "mustered" and waved an iron thorn like nobody's business, showing his heroism and martial arts. Another example is the lesson of chess king. By describing Wang Yisheng's movements and demeanor, the author Acheng successfully created an educated youth image who likes to play chess and regards chess as everything: before the competition, Wang Yisheng "sat in the middle of the venue empty-handed, nobody looked at him, and was as quiet as a piece of iron". Showing his nervous and calm state. In the middle of the game, "Wang Yisheng's posture has not changed. He still held his knees with his hands and looked at him straight, as if looking at a long distance and staring at a very close place. "This shows his concentration and intention in playing chess. The author's description of Wang Yisheng drinking water is even more nuanced. Wang Yisheng only took a sip of cold water and took several steps: he took it, held it high, looked at the edge of the bowl, slowly put it to his mouth, put it over his mouth and swallowed a mouthful of water. Further explain the concentration and difficulty of playing chess. At the end of the chess game, people walked into the venue and saw "Wang Yisheng sitting alone in the middle of the big room, as if he didn't hear anything". He was immersed in the killing of the board and forgot himself and everything around him, which simply reached the realm of detachment. After playing chess, "hold his armpit and help him up." "His legs are still sitting, not straight, hanging in mid-air." In the whole nine-ring chess game, Wang Yisheng played chess with heart, brain and force, so that his body was stiff for a time. There is also Lin Sihuan's Stomatology, which reproduces the superb skills of ventriloquists through the realistic description of three sound scenes: for the description of a family of three who were awakened by a dog barking in the middle of the night, the author first wrote the sound of "dog barking" in a deep alley, giving people a feeling of dead of night, and then wrote "Women clap their hands, their mouths blare, their children cry with their chests, their eldest son wakes up at first, and their husbands scold." In the middle of the night, the family woke up and gradually fell asleep. The husband's baa, the woman's slap, the fuss, the woman's dream cough and the downpour made people feel as if they were there. When simulating a sudden catastrophic fire, the atmosphere on the field was suddenly tense with the phrase "Suddenly a big man roared with fire", and then a family of four reacted differently when the fire came, and then imitated "hundreds of people shouted, hundreds of children cried, hundreds of dogs barked" to write about the fear of other people and animals, and "the sound of middle power falling, the sound of fire and the whistling wind all worked together" to write about the fierceness of the fire. With the mouth of a ventriloquist, the simulated voice is "everything", which is by no means comparable to ordinary people. This is also the reason why the author is so amazed: "although people have hundreds of hands, they have hundreds of fingers, and they can't point to one; There are hundreds of people with hundreds of tongues in their mouths. You can't name them all. "Its evaluation is just right.
However, there is a saying: safflower needs green leaves to support it. If we can successfully use side contrast in the article, I think we can make the personality of the characters more distinct and prominent. Take the article in this unit for example: In Lu's "Pulling the Willow", before arriving at Suoguo Temple, several local ruffians heard that they were going to take over the temple, so they made plans with the broken people. They want to fight, let them admit defeat, and then let them run amok. That's why there is a description of "Zhang San Li Si kneeling on the ground and refusing to get up". They only expected the monk to help him, so they had to do it. " In this paper, the clever trap set by riffraff is precisely to highlight the depth, keenness and alertness of wisdom; The villain's evil deeds just highlight the essence of justice and hatred in Shen Zhi. According to the legend of Big Iron Cone, General Song's "Good people from seven provinces come to study" is quite famous in the local area. When the big iron cone was about to resign as a guest, General Song couldn't stay any longer, so he "happily said,' I rode a horse with an arrow to help fight'". What prestige it was at that time! However, at the crucial moment of the decisive battle with thieves in the starry night wilderness, General Song not only failed to contribute to the war, but "held his breath" and was already "desperate". With such a frightened look, who can imagine his scenery at that time? It's General Song's "Crashing Chestnuts", which shows that Big Iron Cone is alone, and his martial arts are superior, so he can catch the thief first and get the king first. "Chess King" describes the inquiry and propaganda of thousands of people surging in the stadium and crowded in the street. The concise pen style highlights the local sensational effect of Wang Yisheng's chess game with one enemy and nine enemies. The regional champion is an old man, but we called her a thousand times and urged her a thousand times before she began to come to us, a saint-like type. "The old man has the right to enjoy this game of chess here. I wonder if you are willing to make peace and give the old man some face? " The old man took the initiative to live in peace, indicating that Wang Yisheng's chess skills are extraordinary; The eight-character evaluation of "nine bursts, wheel battle" is very expert. If we say that as friends, the evaluation of Zudan may be emotional, then look at the evaluation of regional champions, "Zen is in one furnace, unique in ingenuity, strong first, preemptive, dragon water control, yin and yang." The evaluation of the regional champion is not only that he is an expert, but also that he is an opponent. His outspoken praise is more convincing and shows Wang Yisheng's extraordinary chess skills. In order to highlight the exquisite skills of ventriloquists, in Stomatology, the audience should be mentioned four times: "Before the performance, no one dared to wow", thus writing the different reactions of artists in the hearts of local people; In the first scene, the audience's "craning their necks, staring sideways, smiling and sighing" was wonderful. The excitement of the audience reproduces the exquisite performance; In the second scene, the relaxation of the audience's expression "the guest is not feeling well, just sitting" changes with the ups and downs of the performance; In the third scene, "the guests changed color and left the room, wanting to go first." The panic of the audience, confusing the fake with the real, makes the artists outstanding in acting. In this paper, there are two kinds of expressions for performance props: "one person, one table, one fan and one foot". The simplicity of props is precisely to highlight the superb performance of performers, which is very comparable. At this point, I can't help but think of a few words in the first textbook "Shang Mo Sang": "When Monkey saw Luo Fu, he put down his shoulder and smoothed his moustache. When the teenager saw Luo Fu, he took off his hat and hung his head. The tiller forgets to plow, and the hoe forgets to hoe; Come and complain, but look at Luo Fu. " Travelers, teenagers, cultivators and hoes are all crazy and blame each other because of the beauty of Luo Fu. Although the word "beauty" is not written in the article, people have really felt the beauty of this peasant woman.
At this point, what I want to say is that if you can skillfully combine positive description with side contrast, it will be more effective than using a single writing technique.
Front description+side contrast = perfect depiction
