"Hello, is it convenient to find Xu Chunqiu?"

Fu Nanxun came to the door with condolences politely, and almost non-stop rushed to the crew of "Jinse" to find Xu Chunqiu.

When the staff heard this, they quickly reacted: "You are here to visit the class, please wait a moment, Teacher Xu has not finished the play yet." ”

Fu Nanxun watched from a distance Xu Chunqiu wearing Wang Zhaojun's costume, standing on the stage built by the crew, Tu Zisu looked down at the picture just taken in the camera, and then couldn't stop giving her a thumbs.

The entertainment industry and Liyuan Xing, it is so difficult to have both, but how can she balance it so easily, he thought silently.

Tu Zisu made an "OK" gesture, Xu Chunqiu was obviously relieved, and soon a staff member greeted her and whispered something to her, she looked around for a while, and nodded in the direction of Fu Nanxun.

The staff member just now came back again: "Teacher Xiao Xu said please wait a moment, she quickly unloaded the show." ”

After about ten minutes, Xu Chunqiu changed out of his costume and put on a wide hoodie.

She washed off her makeup, and there was still a little bit of oil paint on her eyelids that had not been removed in a hurry, and the lower half of her face was hidden under the mask.

Her transparent gaze swirled on Fu Nanxun's face, and she immediately understood what he meant: "It's inconvenient to talk here in the crew, let's talk in another place." ”

They sat down in a coffee shop near the crew, and chose a window position with good privacy, with two cups of steaming coffee on the table, and the wall clock on the wall on the left and right, and the store was filled with the fragrance of coffee beans.

Xu Chunqiu took a deep breath of the air with the smell of coffee, she relaxed her shoulders, and said with a slight smile: "I guess you will feel lost these days." ”

She lowered her head and took a shallow sip, "But I didn't expect you to consult with me." ”

Fu Nanxun didn't move the drink in front of him, and said with some confusion: "Do you know what I'm looking for you for?"

"Fu Jialou is in chaos, right, everyone wants to run out, want to be an actor and a singer, and be in the spotlight like you, and easily earn money, right?"

She's right.

"My grandfather told you?" Fu Nanxun said suspiciously.

"No," Xu Chunqiu shook his head, "but I can roughly guess that eight or nine is not far from ten." ”

"You and I both know that the road to being an artist is actually not easier than being a Peking Opera actor. Xu Chunqiu said eloquently, "The pressure on the top of your head all the time, the pervasive illegitimate meal, any inconspicuous little thing you do may be infinitely expanded and discussed by thousands of people." ”

"They can only see you standing on the stage and singing rap with a microphone easily, only seeing your fans saying 'I love you' hoarsely off the stage, watching you make money, fame and fortune, but they can't see the hardships you suffer behind your back. ”

"But in all fairness, being an artist is easier to get ahead than being a Peking Opera actor. ”

"But......" Fu Nanxun folded his hands, but he didn't finish his words in one breath.

"But because the old man opened this hole for you, all the people in the theater ran away?"

Just like when she was in the Republic of China, the girls who couldn't sing in the Yuhua class climbed over the wall to the Huamanlou next door, Xu Chunqiu silently added in her heart.

"My grandfather's most valued disciple, she has lived in our house since she was a child, eating and living with me, my grandfather treated her as his granddaughter in pain, but she still left, walked the same path as me...... Now there are almost half of the people left in the team, they want to be Internet celebrities and stars, and they don't want to rely on drama to eat anymore in this life. ”

"Fujialou is going to collapse. He said in a trembling voice.

Xu Chunqiu's tone was calm: "So you think that if Fu Jialou collapses, the reason is yours?"

Fu Nanxun nodded painfully, he was about to be swallowed up by the tide of self-blame.

Xu Chunqiu smiled: "They did leave the troupe because of your comeback." ”

"But your return to the entertainment industry is just the fuse, not the root cause. ”

Fu Nanxun raised his head slowly, only to hear Xu Chunqiu continue to speak.

"I went to your Fu family building to see it, to be honest, some people's hearts there are no longer in the play, even if there is no you, they will still leave, but it is a matter of time. ”

"Singing is not as good as singing, singing is not as good as acting, this is the status quo of this era. ”

"If one day the industry really collapses, it will be the times that have forced it to death. It's not your responsibility alone, everyone who lives in this era has a responsibility on him. ”

"What's more, Peking Opera has not collapsed yet. ”

At that moment, Fu Nanxun felt that Xu Chunqiu's words were more like looking forward to a better future than comforting him.

"There are people like that in every industry, and they make up the vast majority," she said, slowly turning her fingers around her coffee cup, "but I don't think it's a bad thing." ”

"This means that as long as Peking Opera is popular again, they will come back. ”

As long as Peking Opera is booming again.

How difficult.

Fu Nanxun smiled palely, in this fast-paced era, is it really possible?

Can today's people really accept opera actors poking on stage babbling and playing long notes, singing tunes they don't understand?

"Fu Nanxun, why do you want to return to the entertainment industry?"

"It's not entirely because you can't get off the stage, right?"

The "Celebration Wine" at the New Year's Eve party is vivid, he feels that his whole person is boiling, and at that moment, he feels that he is standing on the stage and singing rap and pop songs, and some people like to play erhu and sing Peking opera.

A hazy thought sprouted in his heart, maybe he can prove to the old man that all roads lead to Rome, and this road in the entertainment industry can also be a way out for Peking Opera.

"Peking Opera can also become popular in this era, and it will definitely become popular, at least that's what I firmly believe. ”

Xu Chunqiu's eyes were blazing, and there was light in his eyes.

"Now that the decision has been made, any form of vacillation is a failure. ”

Fu Nanxun's throat slid slightly.

He once lived up to Old Man Fu's expectations of him, the skills he had practiced since he was a child, and he also lived up to his teammates who fought side by side with him, and the fans who held signs and shouted his name in the audience.

Will he continue to hesitate to live up to it?

Who will be the next time, Peking Opera?

Fu Nanxun put down the cup, and his eyes finally became firm.

"I see. ”
