Qin Jinhong said the purpose of this time, and Li Fugui and Qin Kaifa also put away their thoughts.

Because considering that Li Fugui and Qin Jinhong's father and son have a better relationship and understand each other better, Lin Bao handed over the specific introduction to Li Fugui.

And in the face of this old friend, Li Fugui himself began to talk more: "That's the case, Mr. Lin Bao has been doing some work on traditional culture, and you should have heard of the previous propaganda in opera, right?"

"I've listened to the song "Rap Face", I also listened to it to my dad before, and he also said that it was very good. ”

Qin Kaifa said with a smile, "There is also this "Farewell My Concubine", looking at the Internet, many young people also like it very much, and I am afraid that more young people will like this in the future." Just our troupe, and now those young actors, are all very motivated!"

Qin developed their regional troupes, which were actually mainly Pu troupes.

Over the years, with the increase of other cultural activities, even in rural areas, their audience has become smaller and smaller. In addition to some government performances, they can only be performed in some villages and towns during the New Year's holidays.

Young people don't have much interest in opera, and even middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, who have now grown up to be their parents, have no interest in it. Only the old people in the village of those grandparents are still watching opera performances during the New Year's holidays.

Judging from such a change in age alone, everyone can predict the decline of opera.

However, since last year, Lin Bao has relied on his creative ability and influence to start producing some popular opera products, which has made the vitality of the entire opera industry begin to grow.

Those opera music, as well as the song "Rap Face", which even many middle-aged people and elderly people like very much, have played a very big role.

Since the beginning of this year, many young people have begun to pursue the art of opera. Including the popularity of opera singing, to some special skills in opera, face painting, costumes, and makeup, these have become a very major popular element in places where young people are active such as Douyin and Station B in the past year.

And now, the first domestic opera film in the real sense is also being released, and the trend of comprehensive praise on the Internet may even represent the complete rise of traditional opera in China and even abroad.

As the secretary general of the regional troupe, Qin Kaifa is naturally very concerned about such a problem.

The current popularity of opera in China can be seen very obviously from the situation in their local troupe.

Many of the actors in the troupe did not earn much because of the company's profitability, and they felt that the future was not very good, and the actors who were ready to leave also stayed.

Not only them, but more and more young people who want to learn to perform have joined the troupe. Even the top students of the top opera academies in Shangjing, the magic capital, have found a lot of their troupes this year and have become the backbone.

In this year's time, the activities of the troupe and commercial performances have more than doubled compared with previous years!

The number of troupe activities in the past quarter was more than three times that of the same period the year before!

In commercial performances, or other forms of performances, the audience is more and more popular, and the number of young audiences is increasing.

The whole industry has a lot of signs of old trees in spring and gradually becoming prosperous, and everyone is naturally happy in their hearts.

And they all know that the source of being able to achieve the current situation is one person, and that is Lin Bao.

Officially, because of Lin Bao, with his personal ability and influence, he has led the recovery of the entire traditional opera industry.

Therefore, members of the troupe like Qin Kaifang, including his father Qin Jinhong, are all admired and grateful to Lin Bao.

Now, chatting with such a talented young man in person, the excitement in their hearts is naturally hard to hide.

Seeing that Qin Kaifa mentioned opera, with a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden, Li Fugui also nodded and said: "Teacher Lin Bao has done a lot of work in opera, and at this year's Spring Festival Gala, he still sang the song he wrote. Now, because Mr. Lin Bao himself is familiar with national musical instruments such as suona and erhu, he himself also has the idea of wanting to take action again to help these traditional instruments expand their influence. So he approached me and wanted me to do some publicity activities with him. However, I don't have enough strength alone, so I also want to find a few more people to help, so I made a special trip to find you. ”

"Eh, if that's the case, then there's no need to ask Teacher Lin Bao to come over!"

When Qin Jinhong heard this, his face changed slightly, he looked at Lin Bao and said, "If you really need to make a little contribution to the country and society, if you say a word, I will definitely come over to help you!"

"Yes, some time ago, Uncle Li performed in your live broadcast room, Mr. Lin Bao, and my dad also watched it, and he was also full of emotion at that time, and told me a lot of stories about how they performed together back then. ”

Qin Kaifa also said, "He also sighed, if he has the opportunity, he also wants to take out the pan drum again." Moreover, if you want to promote Mr. Lin Bao, there are also many teachers in our local troupe who know folk music, and they can help you promote. ”

Qin Jinhong also nodded.

His mind is actually the same as Li Fugui's.

Back then, these were guys who ate and walked the streets for decades, but now they really don't have the opportunity to take out these things because they don't have the opportunity and no occasion.

Seeing Li Fugui on the Internet before, he also had some envy.

is not only envious of the other party's ability to gain so many people's appreciation, but also envy him for having the opportunity to take out these old skills, which can be of some use.

To be honest, none of them are rich and wealthy people, and now relatively speaking, life is already good. I don't have the idea of making a lot of money anymore, I just want to be able to use my spare energy.

Contributing to the country and society is their true thought.

Seeing the two of them say this, Lin Bao also said with a smile: "If the two teachers can help, it will definitely be great! Just like the previous propaganda in opera, many teachers from the Opera Association also gave me a lot of guidance and help." And this time, if folk music wants to start anew, like guitar and piano, so that more people and more young people can accept it, we need all of us to work together, including the help of teachers from local folk orchestras and theater troupes.

And this time, it's mainly me here, my studio, who wants to form a folk music band, and also wants to carry out some performance promotion around this band. In terms of forming members, I think it is still necessary to start from the most sincere and original source, from the real origin and inheritance of these folk music, so I thought of a few teachers.

Several teachers performed in the countryside back then, and they all have more than ten years of performance experience, and they are also the real inheritors of this discipline, and they all really love this industry, which is also very representative. So, I think it's a very good thing for you to get a few of you teachers together and form the band again, and it's also very meaningful for you to be promoted. I don't know what you think, Teacher Qin?"

"Of course it's good!"

Qin Jinhong heard this, and clapped his hands directly, "I'm sure it's no problem, anyway, I'm doing some chores in the troupe every day, and occasionally teaching juniors backstage, if I can give full play to some residual heat, of course I'm fine." Still, I have a few points to address here. ”

"Teacher Qin, you say it directly. ”

Lin Bao smiled.

"Come on, although we old men haven't officially performed for ten years, hand-born, and, just in terms of performance level, we are definitely not as good as those professional teachers, as well as the top students of their college. ”

Qin Jinhong said, "It's like Mr. Lin Bao, before you, broadcast the part of suona on the Internet, I see that the suona you played is definitely a high-achieving student, much better than us." I'm just afraid that the past few of us have passed, and the level of performance is limited, which will affect your publicity effect. ”

Lin Bao looked at him with a smile and said, "Teacher Qin, you don't have to worry about this. I have also talked to Mr. Li about this issue before, considering that you have not performed for many years, but the foundation is still there, so after that, you can take time to practice more first, and if necessary, I will find some professional teachers from the Academy of Opera to help you. So, you don't need to worry about this at all. ”

"Teacher Lin Bao, it's not worrying if you're not worried, but it's too troublesome and the cost is too big. ”

Qin Jinhong said, "With this cost, I feel that Mr. Lin Bao will directly invite some high-achieving students from the Academy of Drama to perform, and the effect will be better." ”

"Teacher Qin, it's still that question, in fact, the band we formed this time is because you have to do it. Whether it is from the perspective of propaganda or the perspective of the real inheritors, you are the most suitable. ”

Lin Bao said with a smile, "Publicity, I think you can also roughly understand that Mr. Li also felt before, such as you masters, those young people are more interested and have gimmicks." If you go directly to the students of the opera academy or the teachers, the effect will be much worse. ”

Hearing Lin Bao say this, Qin Jinhong was stunned.

Qin Kaifa next to him also nodded in agreement.

He was doing propaganda in a regional theater troupe, so he naturally understood this.

Although it is said that in traditional opera and traditional folk music, kung fu and ability are the most important, but in such an era, propaganda is still a very important point.

If you really let your father, who was born in the countryside, pull up and start a band, like those young pop bands now, and then hold a "concert", it will definitely be a breaking point and an absolute gimmick.

To be honest, hearing Lin Bao say this, Qin Kaifa thought about it in his heart, and suddenly looked forward to it.

I want to see the scene of Uncle Li, my father, and their group of old buddies walking into the gymnasium, or even walking into the bird's nest to perform.

The first is to help a few of them continue to exert their residual heat and regain their enthusiasm for the year, and second, it is really useful from the perspective of publicity.

"Then if Mr. Lin Bao doesn't dislike my old hands and the drum is not so strong, then there is no problem on my side. ”

Qin Jinhong said, "If you want to train or something, I will definitely obey." ”

"Haha, several teachers are real inheritors of folk music, and I still want to learn more from you!"

Lin Bao smiled.

"Don't don't, Teacher Lin Bao, you are humble. ”

Qin Jinhong was busy waving his hand.

He had seen Lin Bao play the erhu.

That kind of level is definitely not comparable to those peasant musicians who come out of the countryside.

"Then since Mr. Qin, there is no problem on your side, I will briefly introduce the next plans and arrangements. ”

Lin Bao said, "In the early stage, at least in a month or two, I will arrange a few teachers to do some training and practice, so I will focus on the time." After that, if the official debut is promoted, the studio will basically follow the normal way of the band's debut, but it will not be like other artists, too many commercial activities, basically some live broadcasts, or online publicity, every one or two months, a few teachers will be arranged in the name of the band, participate in some promotional activities or even some performances, band performance special performances, etc. ”

Qin Jinhong listened, thought about it, and nodded: "Then it's no problem." ”

There is no problem with the time, he himself is idle at home every day, and he is helping out in the troupe.

came out to Lin Bao's side and performed on the stage, if it wasn't too frequent, it would still be able to hold on.

His old buddies, including Li Fugui, are almost sixty years old, and their physical condition is still good.

"Okay, that's the general arrangement, the specific situation, when we have contacted several other teachers, we will synthesize your situation in detail and arrange the time process. ”

Lin Bao said, "In other words, it is the issue of remuneration. I'm ...... here."

"Don't, Teacher Lin Bao, there's no pay!"

When Qin Jinhong heard this, he waved his hand busily, "I am giving full play to my residual heat and contributing to the society, without asking for anything in return!"

Qin Kaifa next to him also nodded.

Their family conditions are also very good now, and they don't want their father to do some money-making work. Moreover, according to Lin Bao's plan this time, it was also to promote folk music, and it was also to help his father fulfill his wish, so he naturally did it voluntarily. In the end, I think it was his father who said that for contributing to society, naturally he can't think of any reward.

"No, no, Mr. Qin, this still has to be talked about. ”

Lin Bao said, "Since we invite a few teachers to come over, the remuneration must be paid." Moreover, after that, let a few teachers do some activities, although most of them will be public welfare, but our studio will also benefit, so we can't let a few teachers work in vain. As for the specific salary, I told Mr. Li before that I will follow the salary system of the official actors of the city's first-class theater troupe, and there will be a standard salary every month, and in addition, there will be additional activity fees for participating in activities and publicity on the studio's side. ”

"It's okay, it's okay!"

Hearing Lin Bao say that there are additional activity fees, Qin Jinhong nodded hurriedly, "It's already very good, a few of us are all amateurs, and it's too much to get the salary of other formal actors!

Lin Bao said with a smile: "There should be, there must still be something." That's okay, the main content is like this, Mr. Qin, do you have any other questions or needs here? ”

"There is no demand, but there is a question, do you want me to prepare an instrument. ”

Qin Jinhong looked at Lin Bao and said, "I have an old musical instrument at home, but I'm afraid that the old one can't be put on the table anymore......"

"Dad, you don't have to worry about musical instruments, I'll go to the troupe and help you apply for one. ”

Qin Kaifa said.

"No, no, no. ”

Lin Bao said, "As for musical instruments, we have arrangements in the studio, a set of folk music instruments, including bangu. However, if you feel that it is not convenient for you to use it, you can prepare your own. ”

"What's wrong with that. ”

Qin Jinhong smiled, "Then since Mr. Lin Bao has it there, I don't need to bring it." ”

"Okay, then I'll thank Mr. Qin in advance. It means a lot to us that you can promise to come and help. ”

Lin Bao raised his glass.

"Don't, Mr. Lin Bao, you are too serious, there is nothing to help, we are using our spare heat, besides, we still get a salary!"

"Haha!"
