Chapter 384: You Just Follow Yanzhi and Study Hard (Ask for Recommendation, Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
Liu Liansheng glanced at Zhang Jiashuai, showed a gentle smile, and said, "Such a handsome little brother!"
Pei Yanzhi said to Zhang Jiashuai, "This, you can call Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu, this is Xiao Zhang, you know each other!"
Zhang Jiashuai hurriedly bowed and said, "Hello Uncle Liu, my name is Zhang Jiashuai, leave any work to me, I can do it!"
Liu Liansheng looked at Zhang Jiashuai with a smile and said, "You can follow me, don't be in a hurry to work, familiarize yourself with the environment first, I will tell you some backstage taboos, you have to pay attention to this!"
After Pei Yanzhi handed over Zhang Jiashuai to Liu Liansheng, he left him alone and walked out of the lounge.
Liu Liansheng and Zhang Jiashuai also followed Pei Yanzhi and came to the rehearsal room.
This time, the repertoire that the Shuangqing class is preparing to open is still "Farewell My Concubine", although the first scene of the Shuangqing class in the selection class is this, but the Shuangqing class at that time was scarce, so only the core of the play behind was sung, this time, Pei Yanzhi was ready to sing this paragraph in its entirety, and sang the ten-sided ambush in front of it, which is the whole "Farewell My Concubine".
Pei Pai's "Farewell My Concubine" is just the last part of "Xiawei", and this whole drama is actually Mr. Mei Lanfang's original specialty.
The version that Pei Yanzhi is preparing to perform this time is the version that Mr. Mei Lanfang originally used.
When Pei Yanzhi arrived, everyone had already started rehearsing, without makeup, all the actors were walking on stage by themselves, stringing words, seeing Pei Yanzhi coming, everyone was the same as if they didn't see it, only the actor who walked the stage for Pei Yanzhi walked down silently, Pei Yanzhi nodded at him, and then walked up.
The whole play has been deeply engraved in Pei Yanzhi's mind, Pei Yanzhi makes everyone admire this place, even if he is familiar with the corner of the play, during the rehearsal, he will take the words of the play and watch it several times, even if he is already very familiar with the play, he will look at it twice, but Pei Yanzhi never reads the words during the rehearsal, and the most admirable thing is that he can come at any time and start rehearsing with everyone's rhythm at any time.
Just like now, as soon as Pei Yanzhi stood up, it was his turn to speak, and I saw Pei Yanzhi without thinking, his face suddenly became soft, his eyes were sharp, and he opened his mouth to sing as soon as he pinched his orchid fingers.
Liu Liansheng said lightly on the side, "Look good, study hard, Yan Zhi let you follow, it should be for you to follow to learn ability, from this moment on, you had better not let Yan Zhi leave your sight, his every move is an example for you to learn, even if you don't sing, it is also a role in life, and you have to learn!"
These words were like an initiation, which made Zhang Jiashuai wake up instantly, and couldn't help but say to Liu Liansheng excitedly, "Thank you Uncle Liu for your advice, I know!"
Seeing Zhang Jiashuai looking at Pei Yanzhi without blinking, Liu Liansheng also showed a satisfied smile.
More than an hour later, everyone's rehearsal was over, and after everyone said something to Pei Yanzhi, everyone left the troupe.
Liu Liansheng took a teapot, handed it to Pei Yanzhi, and said, "Yanzhi, drink some water, don't get tired!"
Pei Yanzhi said with a smile, "Uncle Liu, this little scene doesn't tire me!"
After taking a few sips of tea, Pei Yanzhi handed the teapot to Liu Liansheng, and Zhang Jiashuai next to him wanted to do it for him, so he reached out and wanted to take the teapot, Pei Yanzhi's face changed slightly, and the hand holding the teapot shrank back, and Liu Liansheng next to him had a look in his eyes and said, "Xiao Zhang, stop!"
Zhang Jiashuai glanced at Liu Liansheng a little blankly, Liu Liansheng took the teapot from Pei Yanzhi's hand, held it in his hand, and said earnestly, "Teach you a good job this time, this is the biggest taboo in the background, this pot is not allowed to be touched by a third person except for me and Yanzhi, understand?"
Zhang Jiashuai more or less understood what was going on in his heart, and hurriedly said, "I was reckless, please don't blame Mr. Pei!"
Pei Yanzhi showed a smile on his face and said, "Haha, it's also that I've overreacted a little, and you don't have to be so nervous, but what Uncle Liu said must be remembered, Jiao'er's pot is not something that anyone can touch!
Zhang Jiashuai nodded and said, "I understand!"
Pei Yanzhi took a square towel, wiped his sweat, and said, "Okay, let's stop here today, you can just come here on time in the future, Uncle Liu, you send him!"
Pei Yanzhi stretched and returned to his lounge.
Liu Liansheng poured out the water from the teapot in his hand, then put it in his bag, and said, "Let's go, go out with me!"
Zhang Jiashuai said a little concernedly, "Uncle Liu, did I commit Mr. Pei's taboo just now!"
Liu Liansheng said earnestly as he walked, "This taboo is not only in the Peking Opera circle, but in your circle, you should also pay attention to it, what others give, no matter who it is, it's best not to eat and drink casually, but your identity can't reach that point!"
Zhang Jiashuai finally understood this reason, and with a hint of horror on his face, he said, "You mean, those things may be poisonous in them, do they still want to poison people?"
Liu Liansheng said with a smile, "It's not necessarily poison, maybe it's something that ruins your throat, in the entertainment industry, most people rely on their throats to eat, as long as you destroy your throat, you'll be completely finished!"
Zhang Jiashuai is young after all, and he is still skeptical about this kind of thing, and said with some hesitation, "This, this is too exaggerated, isn't it a bit too bad to think of people!"
Liu Liansheng looked at Zhang Jiashuai, who had a simple face, shook his head, and said, "Remember, the heart of a good person is indispensable, and the heart of defense is indispensable, you haven't seen it, because you are still too young and have experienced too few things, I will mention someone to you, there was a man in the music industry who was comparable to the Four Heavenly Kings, called, Wang Jiechu, and suddenly disappeared, because someone put something in his water, which caused his throat to be ruined, and a king-level superstar fell like this!"
Zhang Jiashuai said with a shocked face, "Wang Jiechu turned out to be poisoned, why is this, who did it?"
Liu Liansheng said with a mocking face, "Of course, it was because he blocked other people's paths, so he was assassinated, this kind of thing is more in the Peking Opera industry, after all, Peking Opera relies on this meat throat, as long as the throat is destroyed, this person will be completely wasted, so in the past, after experiencing this kind of thing too many times, all the big horns' heels, this kettle must not be left in his hand, just in case." ”
Zhang Jiashuai felt a little numb in his scalp, this kind of thing is a big test for his three views, although he has been in the entertainment industry for more than ten years, but he has always been well protected, and those messy things are far away from him, this incident gave him a new understanding of the entertainment industry.
Looking at Zhang Jiashuai, who was full of worries, Liu Liansheng couldn't help but show a smile, this young man is really naïve!
For a few days, Pei Yanzhi went to the troupe to rehearse on time, which also made the mood of everyone in the troupe very high, after all, the class owner is here, can everyone's mood not be high?
Every day, Zhang Jiashuai came to the troupe early, and when he saw where there was work, he went to do it, wiped the table, mopped the floor, and some props in the backstage, he didn't understand it, so he asked, everyone liked this young man very much, and was willing to talk to him about some backstage knowledge, Zhang Jiashuai was also hungry and thirsty to absorb it.
Liu Liansheng looked at the studious Zhang Jiashuai, and couldn't help but nodded.
Pei Yanzhi's side, Zhang Jiashuai has always followed, not only during rehearsals, but even when Pei Yanzhi sat down to rest, Zhang Jiashuai was also watching.
Finally, on the weekend, the performance of the Shuangqing class is about to be staged.
This play, Pei Yanzhi has already promoted it on Weibo a week in advance, and as soon as the tickets were opened, all 2,000 tickets were sold out in less than 30 seconds.
In the current Peking Opera market, no one can ever pass Pei Yanzhi's Shuangqing class, even the Meilanfang Peking Opera Troupe has to bow down, but the Meilanfang Peking Opera Troupe has performances every day, all over the place, and Pei Yanzhi's Shuangqing class only performs twice a month, after all, there are not many actors in the Shuangqing class, and everyone comes to listen to Pei Yanzhi, Pei Yanzhi is usually not idle, so he can only perform twice a month.
Zhang Jiashuai followed Pei Yanzhi to the Chang'an Grand Theater, Pei Yanzhi's double celebration class, the major theaters in the capital wanted him to perform here, and they gave very generous remuneration, but Pei Yanzhi did not sign a contract in one of them, but discussed it with the owners of the major theaters.
As a result, Pei Yanzhi's play was staged in several theaters in turn, and today, it was the turn of Chang'an Grand Theater.
When he arrived backstage, Zhang Jiashuai also became nervous, although he didn't have to do anything, but today was an official performance, and Zhang Jiashuai followed Pei Yanzhi to his independent dressing room step by step.
Standing at the door with Bao Liu Liansheng, watching Pei Yanzhi sitting in front of the mirror, all the applications had been placed on the table, and Zhang Jiashuai was standing nervously on the side, carefully watching Pei Yanzhi's every move.
Pei Yanzhi didn't speak when he arrived backstage, this was his habit, Pei Yanzhi first cleaned his face and hands in the washbasin on the side, and wiped them well with a clean square towel.
Sitting in front of the mirror, Pei Yanzhi was ready to start acting.
Looking at Pei Yan in the mirror little by little from a handsome big boy to a charming woman, Zhang Jiashuai was surprised throughout the whole process, all of Pei Yanzhi's actions just now, Zhang Jiashuai carefully recorded it bit by bit, pretending, that is, the so-called makeup, in fact, every genre, even every Peking Opera actor, he will have his own unique way of pretending.
Pei Yanzhi's technique is different from everyone now, Master Mei Lanfang's Yu Ji should be the most classic shape, but Pei Yanzhi and his appearance are still slightly different, and not insiders can't see it.
This is something unique to everyone, and this thing, Pei Yanzhi will not tell Zhang Jiashuai, it is already a very rare thing to be able to let Zhang Jiashuai follow him to watch himself play, you know, in the past drama troupe, others were not allowed to watch the play, everyone has their own unique secret weapon, and acting is one of them, if you don't apprentice, you will never let you know.
After Pei Yanzhi pretended to be a good show, he sat there, closed his eyes, and held his breath to concentrate, this is Pei Yanzhi's habit before he came on stage.
Looking at Pei Yanzhi who closed his eyes, Zhang Jiashuai didn't even dare to take a breath on the side.
Suddenly, there was a grunting sound, which was very clear in the silent lounge.
Liu Liansheng showed a look of surprise, and Zhang Jiashuai also looked at Pei Yanzhi with an embarrassed expression.
I saw Pei Yanzhi open his eyes without any expression on his face, and said, "Uncle Liu, I'm hungry!"
Liu Liansheng held back a smile and said, "Okay, I'll go!"
Pei Yanzhi said lightly, "Remember ,......"
"Six mature!" Liu Liansheng had already opened the door and walked out.
Zhang Jiashuai looked at Pei Yanzhi with some embarrassment, and asked curiously, "What six mature?"
Pei Yanzhi said with a smile, "Steak, what's the matter, are you hungry, I'll give you a piece too?"
Zhang Jiashuai waved his hand and said, "No need, I've eaten!"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Jiashuai thought for a while, and then said, "You're about to go on stage, why do you still have to eat steak, and you're still six mature!
Pei Yanzhi shrugged his shoulders and said, "What the hell is there to say, this is my own personal preference!"
Zhang Jiashuai said with some hesitation, "I heard people say that there is such a saying in your Peking Opera industry, you are full of hunger and singing, and when you are singing, it is better to be hungry!"
Pei Yanzhi said in surprise, "Oh, you also know this sentence, full of hunger and singing, the words are true, but it is still a scorer, before it starts, I will talk to you!"
Although Pei Yanzhi usually doesn't speak backstage, there is a situation where Pei Yanzhi talks a lot, that is, when he is hungry, he especially likes to talk.
Pei Yanzhi said with a smile, "You have also seen it before, Uncle Liu has always held a teapot in his hand, never leaving his hand, in fact, every corner has such a pot, and the things in it are all different, this is everyone's hobby, the Peking Opera industry calls this 'drinking field', because what we consume when we sing opera is our voice, so we have to drink some water from time to time." ”
Zhang Jiashuai nodded thoughtfully.
Pei Yanzhi continued, "The drinking field was very common in the old Peking Opera troupe in the past, and there was no stage reform at that time, so it was all Mingchang!"
Zhang Jiashuai didn't understand and asked, "Mr. Pei, what is Mingchang?"
