MTL - Hollywood Lover-Chapter 509 Can't help being rich
Running script has been favored and spread widely since its creation because of its unique artistic expression and wide practicality, such as smooth writing, fast writing, elegant and easy to read.
After experiencing the golden period of Wei and Jin and the development period of Tang Dynasty, running script reached a new peak in Song Dynasty, and gradually occupied the mainstream position in various calligraphy styles.
Throughout the long history of calligraphy, the development of seal script, official script, and regular script all experienced ups and downs, while running script has never declined, and has always been a prominent school in the field of calligraphy.
It is not surprising that Chinese characters appear in French tattoo parlors. With the prosperity of China's national power and its return to the status of the forest of world powers, coupled with the mysterious and beautiful Chinese characters, it has naturally become a tattoo for foreigners. One of the most commonly used fonts.
However, just like us Chinese or Orientals who wear dirty English characters and want to show off in the market, foreigners don’t understand the meaning of Chinese characters, so they wear random tattoos. Girls with "chicken" or "mean" boys.
For example, the word "monkey" is tattooed on the arm of tennis star Safin. As soon as NBA star Kenyon Martin dunks, people will see the arm that is "worried about gains and losses". This kind of funny thing is not one or two. .
"You didn't find the tattoo you wanted, but I found mine!" Zhang Dongcheng said with a smile, picked up the running script pattern, and said to old Jeff who had been waiting by the side: "Mr. I want to tattoo this group of Chinese characters, but I need to add two characters."
Old Jeff looked at it, and said blankly: "Add words? Will it damage the overall image, and the fee will be more expensive?"
Adding words into it will naturally jump out of the pattern, which will be more difficult to do.
Zhang Dongcheng said nonchalantly: "As long as it looks good and beautiful, it doesn't matter how much it costs."
And Laticia squeezed over, stretched out her small head and looked at the line of Chinese characters that she couldn't understand, and asked in puzzlement: "This is, is this the language of your country? It looks so complicated, But it's beautiful."
Turning her head, revealing that flower-like smile, Laticia asked, "What do these words mean?"
"Life and death are determined, and wealth depends on heaven. This is a very old Chinese proverb." Zhang Dongcheng smiled and said the words that the future will be engraved on Xiaobei's body in Chinese domineeringly, and then explained in English: "That is to say, it means that life and death of a person are determined by the destiny. It is often used to mean that things cannot be reversed by manpower. Winners can say this sentence to show their pride and pride, while losers can also Saying this sentence is in a rhetorical tone, intending to overthrow fate and never compromise."
"Then do you say this sentence with the mentality of a winner or a loser?" Laticia worked hard to understand the meaning of this ancient Chinese saying, and suddenly thought of a question, and asked Zhang Dongcheng .
"I'm not a loser..." Zhang Dongcheng laughed, but said thoughtfully: "Successful? I think I'm successful, but the road of pursuit will never end, and I won't do anything for anything." Stay on my feet, I will always pursue it. So, I want to add two words to this old saying."
"What kind of words do you want to add? Will the meaning of the sentence change?" Laticia asked curiously.
"Life and death have their own destiny, wealth and honor are not in control!" Zhang Dongcheng's eyes revealed a firm light, and he said this sentence forcefully. This is his spirit all the way, the spirit of never giving up.
OK, with the money opening the way, old Jeff quickly came up with a new pattern, and added the two characters Zhang Dongcheng wants to this ancient Chinese saying, which are equally beautiful and beautiful. If this line of characters is exposed to everyone There must be a whirlwind in front of him.
Tattoos slowly appeared on the right arm. Zhang Dongcheng chose the most conspicuous place on the outside of the arm, and blood stains slowly seeped out.
The reason why tattoos scare a lot of people is that it is very painful to make it. Whenever people see a large area of tattoos, they usually let out a wow, and then think that it must be painful. People who persevere are naturally people with very strong willpower.
In some ways, tattoos are a test of willpower and faith. When your willpower is slack, you will want to give up and end. The more you do this, the harder it is to persevere. In fact, a war with yourself is going on in the process of tattooing at the same time. Pain is just a weapon used by a cowardly self. He wants you to stagnate and give up your pursuit. When you are no longer afraid of pain, it will interfere with it. When you turn a blind eye, you overcome yourself, and the meaning of tattoos is no longer so simple at that time, and the sense of accomplishment you get from it will be extremely huge. I believe this is also the reason why many people are addicted to tattoos.
"Does it hurt?" Although Zhang Dongcheng didn't respond, there was no sweat on his forehead, and his face was still smiling, Laticia couldn't help asking, she was looking forward to and a little afraid of tattoos.
This is also natural, who didn't scare themselves for a long time when they got tattoos for the first time.
"It doesn't hurt." Zhang Dongcheng smiled and shook Laticia's hand, saying that he didn't feel any pain at all, so as to reassure the girl.
But holding her hand, her hand was icy cold, and she was even sweating non-stop. It seemed that she must be a little frightened.
"Tattoos are definitely painful, and it is a relatively painful kind. The specific feeling varies from person to person, and the pain of each part of the body is different. In my more than 20 years of tattooing career Every time I finish a tattoo for a client, I will ask: "Does it hurt? How much does it hurt?" The answers are various. Some people say it hurts, it is unbearable, like a knife stirring in the flesh; some people say it hurts more, It can be tolerated, like fingernails scratching back and forth on the skin; some people say it doesn't hurt, just a little numb feeling, like a lot of little ants biting." Old Jeff, who tattooed Zhang Dongcheng, replied unhurriedly.
"The one that hurts must be a girl like me, right?" Laticia said anxiously.
"No, the ones who say that it hurts are basically some men with a strong appearance. Before tattooing, they didn't pay attention to this kind of pain. He felt that the pain of tattooing was nothing, and he must be able to bear it. It is this kind of preconception. The concept made him feel contemptuous, and when it really started, the pain was beyond his imagination. As a result, he couldn't relax his emotions, and the pain would naturally become more and more painful, and even some weak-willed people would Give up halfway." Old Jeff said slowly, but it left Laticia speechless.
"Girls will definitely endure this kind of pain. You must know that you will face eight levels of pain. According to scientific evidence, girls are five to eight times more capable of enduring pain than men." Zhang Dongcheng also interjected with a smile. The highest pain is the pain of a woman giving birth.
"As long as you face up to the pain in tattooing, you will be able to overcome it, so that you can enjoy the charm of this unique art." Old Jeff also helped, making Laticia feel more at ease.
Soon, Zhang Dongcheng's tattoo was completed, and the ten beautiful running scripts of "Life and death have their own fate, wealth and honor cannot be controlled" appeared on it. With the careful design of old Jeff, the whole pattern showed the elegance and beauty of running script, Very prominent on the arm, very perfect.
"OK, I've got it done!" Nodding his head, the old Jeff's craftsmanship is really nothing to say, and Zhang Dongcheng also recognized it.
"Smith, why don't you help me choose a pattern, I really don't know what to choose!" Laticia put her hand on her forehead, and realized that she had a choice phobia, and she didn't know what pattern to choose.
Zhang Dongcheng pondered for a moment, then said to Laticia: "I think there are a few key points in this pattern. The first is that the pattern must be feminine and not look like a male hippie. Second, it should not be too big or too large. It’s too difficult for you to be an actor in the future. Third, it’s better to be in a hidden place, so that it’s easy to hide when you’re filming. Fourth, of course, it’s beautiful, so I won’t talk about that. "
Zhang Dongcheng’s suggestions were very good, and Laticia strengthened her confidence in letting him choose: “Haha, that’s so good, then you must help me choose a good one!”
"Okay, I'll choose." Zhang Dongcheng smiled, but looked at it slowly, then took out a picture, and said to Laticia: "This one! Let's see how it looks."
This pattern is also not very complicated, but it is very charming and beautiful. It is a pair of angel wings, spread out, and there is a line of English in the middle of the wings.
"I will always surrender to you." Laticia read the above English, and looked at Zhang Dongcheng with big blinking eyes, a little puzzled.
"The wings can be tattooed on the back of the waist. You can't see them normally, but in summer like this, you can wear a shorter T-shirt, and the wings will be hidden. It's very **** and cute!" Zhang Dongcheng talked about him from left to right, and didn't answer Laticia's question, but just told Laticia what he thought.
After more than ten years, the girls' preferred place to get tattoos is no longer the chest or arms. Countless girls who want to get tattoos but don't want to be too ostentatious find that getting tattoos on the lower back not only satisfies their wishes but also adds **** appeal. , naturally flocked to it, but more than ten years ago, Zhang Dongcheng's proposal made old Jeff, who had been immersed in this way for more than 20 years, look up.
"Really? Will it be really beautiful?" Laticia said happily, fantasizing for a while, thinking that this is a really good idea!
No exaggeration or affectation, no influence on the future, show it if you want it, and don’t let it appear if you don’t want it, this idea is really good!
Laticia happily picked up this pattern, handed it to old Jeff, and said loudly: "Mr. Jeff, I want to tattoo this pattern!"
