In fact, these questions asked by Yu Ji have been said by Li Shixin before on Weibo and Sun Jiubao Hard Steel.

But at that time, in anger, the truth was just said sharply, and it did not go deeper.

Now that his mind has calmed down, Li Shixin is interested in discussing with reporters.

Facing a group of reporters who were obviously surprised by this answering of the plates, Li Shixin smiled slightly and changed to a comfortable sitting position on the chair.

"In fact, Peking Opera, to put it bluntly, is just an outdated form of entertainment. Let's say that it is the quintessence of the country now, just because it once had a glorious era and influenced the masses of that era.

Think about it, nowadays, people like to watch TV dramas and movies, and after working and studying every day, everyone may get together to discuss the plot, stars, gossip or something.

More than 100 years ago, a few decades ago, what did everyone get together to discuss? The plot, the singing, the horns, and so on. It's all kinds of lace, and all kinds of messy things in the circle.

It's not really different from today, is it?"

Hearing Li Shixin's comparison, several reporters present and the crew who came to see the excitement couldn't help but blink.

It seems like

That's really the truth!

"Then Mr. Li, why do you say that Peking Opera is dead?"

Looking at Weibo Yuji biting his lip and asking, Li Shixin smiled faintly.

"People's demand for spiritual entertainment has never changed, and in every era, there are entertainment forms that conform to the three views of people in this era. From the bonfire dance in ancient times, to chime music, to poetry and songs, to Peking Opera to today's movies and TV series and even online articles.

The most popular forms of entertainment in each period are the most in line with the public aesthetics of that period and the best communication methods at that time. Peking Opera was the most prosperous in the Qing Dynasty, and it is beautiful today, but both the way of communication and its spiritual core are too far away from today's mainstream entertainment.

Even the values expressed in many plays have been detached from the contemporary public. For example, "The Drunken Concubine", which is the most representative of Peking Opera, what story does it tell?

It is nothing more than that Yang Yuhuan was deeply favored by Emperor Tang Ming, and he originally asked Emperor Tang Ming to go to the banquet in Baihua Pavilion, but he didn't wait for a long time, and then knew that he had already transferred to the West Palace, so he was ashamed and angry, and he was drunk with all kinds of sorrow.

But what do young people think of it now—isn't this just a resentful woman?

Even some girls may think, just a man? If you don't come, you won't come, and this girl is not uncommon, right?

Therefore, in terms of values, a large part of traditional Peking Opera can no longer resonate emotionally with contemporary audiences.

So I said, it's dead.

Now filming the drama "Ling", the purpose is to record, not promote.

To be honest, I am personally afraid that this drama can get so much attention on the Internet. I am ashamed to see any comments that Li Shixin made this drama popular with Peking Opera.

If Peking Opera suddenly revives one day, it will definitely not be my relationship with the drama "Ling".

It is a group of young people who really love Peking Opera, using the essence and core of Peking Opera, and the way of chanting and singing to perform new things that are in line with the values of young people today.

Like "Office Storm", like "Three Dozen Scumbags", like "Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law" and "Dormitory Romance", there are many dramas that can not only express the current state of public life, but also reflect the outlook on life and values of contemporary people, when will it be able to say revival. ”

As Li Shixin casually recited a few titles that did not match the style of Peking Opera painting at all, everyone at the scene suddenly burst into laughter.

"Mr. Li, what you said is quite impressive! But it sounds too different from Peking Opera. In contrast, I think your old "Ling", as well as "February Red Memories" and "Ten Years in the World" in the OST, are more in line with your new attempts at Peking Opera. ”

Facing the sand sculpture reporter who was standing at the beep station laughing, Li Shixin shook his head solemnly: "I just said this, I didn't mean to joke." The beauty of Peking Opera should not be the oil paint on the ugly face of Shengdan Jingmo, it should not be the flower gun of the sword and horse, it should not be the water sleeve of Tsing Yi, nor should it be the mustache of the old student. Its beauty should be relished, it should be a smile, it should be a little bit of feeling left in the brain after making people cry, laugh, angry and sad. ”

Li Shixin, who was sitting on the chair, looked very funny at this time, with a big bald head with the whip removed, and he was still wearing a nondescript Tsing Yi costume, but with this in-depth explanation, full of talk about the understanding of Peking Opera, everyone present couldn't help but stand up straight.

This is a true master!

"Then Mr. Li, since you said that you have no idea of reviving Peking Opera, what are your expectations for the drama "Ling"?"

Faced with the question, Li Shixin was silent for a moment, and then smiled.

"The inspiration for the creation of the drama "Ling" is the family history of a new friend of mine, that is, Sun Liancheng of the Beijing Yueling Theater. The story of this drama is based on the experience of Sun Liancheng's grandmother, Mr. Lai Xiaoyue, who became a family.

Mr. Sun Liancheng's theater has been in business for nearly ten years, but now there are only some ticket holders who are old and can't accept new things.

If I have any expectations for this show, it may be to give comfort to these people who have spent their years but kept the old colors.

Peking Opera has been eliminated by the times, but it has also been brilliant, just like these people, they have also been young and alive with the glory of Peking Opera.

So I really hope that my friends who like the drama "Ling" can watch it with them in front of the elderly people who are old at home and like Peking Opera.

Young people go to watch the plot of "Ling" and listen to the songs in the UST. The old people watched the era of Ling, and went to see the Peking Opera in the OST I updated today.

Let people from the two eras get a chance to coincide spiritually, this is my biggest expectation for this drama. ”

As he spoke, Li Shixin's eyes lit up.

As he finished speaking, the reporters present were excited;

"Mr. Li, you said that the story of the drama "Ling" has a prototype?"

"Xinye, when did you put the OST again? Why didn't I pay attention?"

"Teacher Li, can you tell us more about Lai Xiaoyue's story?"

Looking at the microphone in front of him, Li Shixin smiled and waved his hand.

What is the most important thing in life?

It's a blank space!

What is a Superior Man?

Ten out of ten words are five points, and the remaining half is left to make up for it!

In the face of the reporters' questions, Li Shixin stood up with one hand on the arm of the chair.

"Don't talk about it, I'm tired. ”

Watching Li Shixin push aside the crowd and disappear on the set, several entertainers at the scene looked at each other and picked up their mobile phones in unison.

"Hurry up, edit it, the news is on soon!"

.......

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

After filming all the shots planned today, after Liu Wenqiang announced the end of work, Li Shixin returned to the nanny car with a towel and the show.

As soon as he pulled out his phone, his eyes widened.

In a few hours, my mobile phone, which was obviously fully charged in the morning, was on the verge of shutting down.

And on the screen of the elderly machine, it is full of Weibo's @ and private messages!

In the afternoon, my own interview exploded!
