Chapter 324: A Day for a Heroic Mother
It is normal for teacher Zhao Lirong to have doubts, when she was young, she mainly focused on boudoir Dan and Hua Dan, and when she got older, she began to prefer the harlequin, but after all, she is a quyi actor, and the performance method of sketches can be classified as dramas, and the performance methods are completely different, and now Yi Qing suddenly asked her to perform sketches, she really has no bottom in her heart.
"I haven't acted before, I don't know how to act, don't go back and delay your business!"
Yi Qing hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, since I came to invite you today, it must be because you are suitable, it doesn't matter if you haven't acted before, just rehearse a few more times when the time comes, anyway, there is a script, you just follow it." ”
Hearing Yi Qing say this, Teacher Zhao Lirong is really a little moved, after all, the troupe is also in a recession now, although there are a lot of performances, but the income is not much, and the old people like her who have been rated as national first-class actors early are very poor, otherwise, they will not take on TV series and movie performances.
When people reach this age, their ideas are actually very simple, which is nothing more than to make more money and help their children.
In the previous life, Teacher Zhao Lirong appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for the first time, in fact, it was also to catch ducks on the shelves, at that time, the actress in You Benchang's sketch was hospitalized in a car accident, and the show had entered the final review, and it was ready to be launched, at this time, someone introduced Teacher Zhao Lirong to You Benchang, and after rehearsing once, I felt that the effect was good, just like that, Teacher Zhao Lirong became the oldest newcomer on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala at the age of 60.
"What, can I see that script of yours?"
When Yi Qing heard this, he hurriedly presented the prepared script, he did not choose the works of Zhao Lirong when he first appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, but chose the more influential.
Sima Guang smashed the light, Sima Cylinder smashed the cylinder.
The influence of this line is so far-reaching that it still makes people laugh even decades later.
But the script was handed over, but Teacher Zhao Lirong was stunned with the script, and looked at Yi Qing with an embarrassed face, Yi Qing didn't know what was going on at first, and when he understood, he was also embarrassed.
Teacher Zhao Lirong came from the old society, from elementary school art, at the age of one to play the color baby, never went to school, and was illiterate at all.
Without waiting for Yi Qing to speak, Li Chengru hurriedly took the script over: "Teacher Zhao, I'll read it to you." ”
When he was in the Journey to the West crew before, Li Chengru was responsible for reading the script to Teacher Zhao Lirong, and he was naturally clear about the other party's situation.
Yi Qing said with embarrassment: "Teacher Zhao, I'm sorry, I ~~~~~~~ that ~~~~~~~"
Teacher Zhao Lirong smiled and waved her hand again and again, and said: "It's okay, it's okay, I forgot to say it, I'm illiterate, when I used to shoot that, it was Xiao Lizi who read the script to me, I'll memorize it again, trouble you two, or read it to me!"
The old lady is so good-tempered, Yi Qing is even more embarrassed.
"Teacher Zhao, look at it like this, I'll play it for you with Brother Li, I'll play the director, Brother Li, you play the role of Teacher Zhao!"
On the way, Li Chengru had already read the script and had a general understanding of the content.
"Okay!"
The two of them spoke, briefly corrected the words, and then the performance began.
From the very beginning, the director entered the door and told the old lady what he was going to shoot today, but the old lady only thought about buying tofu, and Mr. Zhao Lirong couldn't stop laughing.
When it came to educating children later, Li Chengru recited: Sima Guang smashed the light, Sima Cylinder smashed the cylinder.
Teacher Zhao Lirong laughed so much that he couldn't even straighten his waist.
The whole script is no different from the original version, even the joke has been retained, this TV series was introduced to the mainland last year, and it began to be broadcast on local stations across the country at the beginning of this year, and Beijing TV has also been introduced and broadcast.
After the two of them finished performing again, Teacher Zhao Lirong slowed down for a long time before stopping the laughter.
"Oops, who made this up, it's so funny, it makes my stomach hurt when I laugh. ”
Li Chengru said with a smile: "Who else, far away in the sky, close in front of you, Mr. Zhao, have you seen it? ”
and as the two most popular TV series the year before and last year, Mr. Zhao Lirong naturally watched it, and I was also surprised to hear Li Chengru say that it was written by Yi Qing.
"Oh! The young man is so knowledgeable, what a great thing!"
Teacher Zhao Lirong's praise, Yi Qing is very useful, but what he cares more about is whether the old lady can accept the invitation, you know, although there are many good comedians in China now, but there are really not many who can be "glamorous" at once, before Zhao Laohan's rise, Chen Xiaoer and Zhu Laomao are the pillars of a party, these two must not be able to dig up, in Yi Qing's heart, only Zhao Lirong is left who can support the language program of the Beijing and Taiwan Spring Festival Gala.
"Mr. Zhao, ~~~~~~~~~ you watch this performance?"
Teacher Zhao Lirong hurriedly said: "This, I don't dare to promise you all at once, I have to ask the head of the troupe, but I don't think it should be a big problem, now it's not like the first few years of liberation, once the year comes, the performance task is heavy, and now it's ~~~~~~."
Teacher Zhao Lirong didn't go on, but from her slightly lonely expression, she could feel that the old lady was very worried about the current situation of traditional operas such as Pingju.
There are few actors, and the audience's attention is getting lower and lower, and the number of performances can be guaranteed, but it is difficult to make a profit, even if it is a troupe with a national brand, it is difficult to continue.
In this regard, Yi Qing is also helpless, if it is a traditional form of cross talk, he can still imitate the model of Guo Banzhu to save it, as for Pingju, he can't do anything, even the quintessence of Peking Opera is not seen now, let alone Pingju, a local genre of opera.
"Well, you two will wait here for a while, and I'll go to the head of the regiment and ask. ”
Teacher Zhao Lirong doesn't look old, but he is still a vigorous and resolute character, and he got up and went out as he spoke.
"Xiao Yi, do you really think Mr. Zhao can do it, the old lady doesn't have any popularity!"
Li Chengru waited for Teacher Zhao Lirong to go out, and then asked.
Yi Qing said with a smile: "What is the audience popularity? If you don't go on stage, don't show up in front of the audience, where does the audience come from, I think the old lady is good, she is kind and kind, and she has her own comedy talent, it's good, anyway, let me find a suitable one, I can't find a better one than Mr. Zhao!"
Joke!
This is the mother Zhao who is liked by the people of the whole country, she is an old man, and even the sketch king Zhao Laohan has to stand aside, people can't do it? Who else can?
After a while, Teacher Zhao Lirong came back, with a face full of joy: "It's won, the head of the regiment agreed, you two look, when will we start rehearsals?"
The old lady is still a quick temper!
But the problem is ~~~~~~~
"Mr. Zhao, don't worry, you also watched it just now, this sketch is performed by two people, I have to arrange your partner first, and then pick you up to rehearsal. ”
Finally appeased Teacher Zhao Lirong and left the address of the old lady's home, Yi Qing and Li Chengru declined the invitation to go to the house for dinner, and got up to say goodbye.
In fact, Mr. Zhao Lirong's partner in the sketch, Yi Qing already had a candidate, and when he returned to the city, he took Li Chengru to the All-China Federation of Trade Unions Drama Troupe, and had been contacted through Yang Lixin before, and after arriving, he directly found the main owner.
Compared with the bald image in my impression, the tall and thin man in front of him is still a little young, but at the age of thirty, his hairline is already in jeopardy.
Big eyes, slender neck, bent waist, and two front teeth with a smile, in short, you know that you are not a good person at a glance.
This face will definitely be a joy for the people of the whole country in the future, but at present, few people know about it.
"Teacher Ge, I'm Yi Qing who contacted you yesterday!"
What Yi Qing came here to meet was the super big name in the Chinese film industry in the future, Uncle Ge You, who can be popular all over the country in Beijing.
"You're polite, you're polite, you can call the teacher, just call Youzi!"
Yuko?
Yi Qing asked himself if he couldn't open his mouth: "I'll still call you Brother You!"
Ge You looked flattered and didn't dare to do it.
After the two contacted yesterday, Ge You went to ask Yang Lixin, the two of them were old acquaintances, and they had performed together before, and after asking, he knew who Yi Qing was.
The screenwriter of so many popular TV series can work as a producer in the Beijing TV Drama Production Center before he reaches twenty, a proper future star in the circle, and he will be promoted to a strong character in a few years.
"You came to me ~~~~~~~"
Ge You's little heart beat violently, Yi Qing is a well-known screenwriter, and the TV series he writes is a hit, if he can play a role in Yi Qing's film, it will definitely benefit him immensely.
He was admitted to the repertory troupe of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions in 79, but he has been doing chores in the troupe for so many years, and he finally acted in a movie last year, but he had no influence at all, and no one knew who he was on the street.
He has not yet reached the age of establishment, and the desire to strive for fame and fortune is particularly strong, so I hope that who can see him at a glance, this pearl in the sea, and give him a little lift, so that he can soar into the sky.
As a result, after Yi Qing explained his intentions, Ge You was disappointed, it turned out that he was not acting in a TV series, but acting in a sketch!
Although disappointed, listening to Yi Qing's meaning, this sketch is to be performed on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala in Beijing and Taiwan, if it is brilliant, maybe it can also be popular, and I don't reject it in my heart.
"Okay, you can afford it, I definitely can't refuse, according to what you said, when will we rehearse, I can also say hello to the group!"
Ge You's words are putting gold on his face, his status in the group is basically more than him, no less than him, no less than him, if he can really go out to take on a job, it will save the group from worrying about how to arrange him.
It is conceivable that even if it is an actor, there is a dormant period, if there is no Yi Qing, Uncle Ge's dormant period will have to be a little longer.
