I, who lived in seclusion for thousands of years, was exposed by yearning

Chapter 142 The first camera was a foreign film?
"Actually, this camera was originally a foreign film. Finally, after the kid Daguerre got to know Niepce, he worked together to develop the camera."

Ye Qing finished speaking with his mouth curled up, looking at the few people, he knew that these children liked to hear old stories, so luckily he told them.

"If you say that the camera No.1 should be the child of Niepce, he took pictures a few years before Daguerre. Without his prior technology, their camera would not have been made."

Daguerre was the first person he met back then in the Land of Romance.

Because this child has a very high talent for painting since he was a child, many churches or some small town residents invited him to paint.

He looked at Daguerre who carried the drawing board on his back every day, and didn't walk past his house until the sun went home. He couldn't help being curious, didn't this kid feel tired?

A realistic portrait of a character is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

What is the purpose of this kid working so hard to paint?
Because of this, one day he invited the child to paint.

"From what you say, you seem to have a good relationship with them."

"Daguerre and I just happen to live in the same town. That kid has a good talent for drawing and has painted portraits of me several times."

Ye Qing shook his head slightly.

To say that the relationship is good, it's not that good.

It all started with him being curious about the kid, just a little bit interested.

"Many people in that small town invited him to paint, and he didn't carry the drawing board back home until the sun went down. It felt like he was busy every day. When he was painting and chatting with me, the boy knew that I came from afar, so he Ask me if there is anything I can leave the picture. This question immediately aroused my interest, I have traveled to so many countries, it seems that apart from painting, there is no such thing as he said. "

"That's why he thought about inventing the camera?"

"That's right, it's just that the camera hasn't been invented yet, but the foreign film was invented first."

Ye Qing nodded to Yang Zi and responded.

The concept of a camera sounds quite simple, but for Daguerre at the time, his knowledge was not enough for him to invent that kind of imaging thing.

However, when he was working as a painter in the theater, he had a whim and used canvas and lighting to create a real but different theater environment.

"Pull foreign film? Is it the kind of thing that keeps switching pictures in a camera obscura?"

Zhang Guangwen, who was sitting by the side, confirmed to the old man with nostalgia in his eyes.

This foreign film was his favorite entertainment when he was a child when he went to temple fairs.

A big box, surrounded by a few small windows, the boss next to him sang while operating to change the lighting and scenery for them.

It's been so many years, I didn't expect to hear something from my childhood from the old man.

"It's that thing. After I returned to China, I sometimes went to temple fairs to have a look at that thing. I have to say that Daguerre's invention of foreign movies is quite interesting. But it seems to be gone now."

Ye Qing didn't expect this old man to know about this foreign film.

This object has been raised in temple fairs for some years, but it has never been seen again.

"What the hell are those foreign films?"

Yang Zi and Zhang Zifeng asked in confusion.

How come they haven't heard of this.

Is there something like this at the temple fair?

"This foreign film is actually a miniature diorama theater."

Tian He explained to the two of them:

"The diorama theater uses some changes in the canvas as well as changes in lighting and music to give people an immersive feeling. It's like a slide show. The slide camera we played with when we were young can be switched with one click. This photo is similar to that principle."

As he talked, he gestured in the shape of a toy camera.

I am afraid that he is the only one present who can explain it.

After all, these old men have never heard of this little thing.

"I know this, I played it when I was a child."

Looking at Tian He's description, Yang Zi immediately understood what this foreign movie was.

Unexpectedly, their childhood toys were accidentally invented by the inventor of the camera.

Really long knowledge.

"It turns out that the big guy pulling foreign movies has been changed into such a small one. It's quite novel."

Looking at Tian He's gestures, Ye Qing couldn't help but lament the development of science and technology in this era.

Shrunk from the theater to a big box, and then shrunk from the big box to such a small toy.

"This toy was quite novel when it came out, and there were different stories in it. I bought several of them at the time to look at."

Zhang Zifeng nodded and smiled.

She didn't expect that what grandpa and the others were talking about was still a toy they had when they were young.

"But now it's the age of mobile phones. It seems that this toy is no longer produced. Otherwise, I will buy you a set of stories. Although there is no sound, you can still find the fun of the past."

"Grandpa is not a child, so let's leave the toys to the children."

Ye Qing couldn't help laughing loudly.

This little girl treated him like a child, and she even wanted to give him toys.

"Here are the photos."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Peng Yuchang shouting excitedly.

Ye Qing gave the other party an angry look, and took a few sips from the teacup on the table.

I told myself in my heart that this is just a child, an ignorant child.

They are still staying for a long time, and they are not in a hurry for this moment.

"Master, can we watch?"

Although several people were very curious about that photo, but judging by the expression on the old man's face, it's better to ask first.

It wouldn't make the old man dissatisfied with them just because of a photo.

"The old man said he won't show it, so you won't watch it?"

Ye Qing put down the cup and looked at them with raised eyebrows.

Did he really think he couldn't see the curiosity in their eyes about that photo?

Even if he said he wouldn't allow it to be seen, they might still ask and watch secretly.

"..."

A few people were taken aback, and looked at the people around them.

The eyes of the other party are full of meaning that they want to see but dare not.

"Okay, just watch it if you want." Ye Qing waved his hand speechlessly.

After getting Ye Qing's permission, Peng Yuchang turned the album to the last page.

He had already sneaked a peek upstairs just now.

No wonder the old man said not to look at it, because the first photo is really not good-looking.

The old man in the photo had his face wrinkled together, his eyes narrowed as if they had disappeared, and the corners of his mouth curled up in disgust and regret.

The audience in the live broadcast room burst out laughing when they saw the old man in the photo.

"From the photos, it is enough to see how much the old man disliked the camera invented by Daguerre."

"No wonder the old man doesn't want to show this photo to others. It turns out to be so ugly."

"Who says it's not? The old man is a man of beauty, but he still has to keep his ugly photo. It's the first photo of his life. It's a pity to lose it, and he has hot eyes."

"Actually, the old man is still handsome, it's just a problem with the camera."

"Yeah, just look at the photo Tian He took for the old man just now, and you will know that our old man's appearance is online, so it is the camera's mistake."

Although many viewers were maintaining Ye Qing's appearance, there were still many viewers who took screenshots of the old man's ugly photos and posted them on the Internet for everyone to see.

All of a sudden, the photo that Ye Qing didn't want people to see went viral all over the internet.

[The world's first camera photo turned out to be an ugly photo of the old man! 】

The topic immediately led to the top of the hot discussion list.
