And......

It doesn't have to be a song!

What is he?

He is a student of the puppet performance department!

In other words, he's also an actor!

If puppet theatre could be adapted into a genre that modern people like, wouldn't that be possible?

Peng Hui fell into deep thought.

Because he couldn't make up his mind, Peng Hui simply went directly to the library where the play was played.

Then, after reading a lot of books about puppetry, I came up with a frustrating answer.

He couldn't.

Puppet shows have a long history.

The general view is: "originated from the Han Dynasty and flourished in the Tang Dynasty". During the Three Kingdoms, puppets were already available for acrobatic performances, and the Sui Dynasty began to use puppets to perform stories.

As early as 06, puppet show has been listed as the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage.

It stands to reason that this should have been a highly sought-after project.

However, the fact is that the real prosperity in these years is Peking Opera and Huangmei Opera, but it is definitely not a puppet show.

Is puppet theatre well-known?

Maybe there is, but it's definitely not as good as Peking Opera.

Even to a certain extent, it is not as good as shadow puppetry.

The reason for this is that there is no medium for puppetry to be promoted.

The popularity of shadow puppetry in China is far higher than that of puppet shows.

The reason for this happened to a movie.

Yes, movies.

Even if that movie is not about shadow puppetry, it is because the shadow puppet show has a not short shot in that movie, and even a plot promotion prop, which makes many people have a first impression of shadow puppetry.

And the name of that movie is called "Alive".

That's right, it is "Alive", which is known as the first drama in China.

Although "Alive" can no longer be seen now, everything about this film is still circulating.

Invisibly, the popularity of shadow puppetry is naturally higher than that of puppet shows.

However, this kind of thing is really too difficult.

It's too difficult to come across a film and television drama that tells about puppet theater and makes it have the status of shadow puppetry.

As for the songs......

Yes.

But the problem is that Peng Hui's profession is not to compose lyrics and music, but to write a song of this genre......

For Peng Hui at this moment, it is really difficult for a strong man.

But Peng Hui has always believed in one thing.

You can never say it's hard until it's done.

Gritting his teeth, Peng Hui found Wang Kun, and through Wang Kun, he met the seniors of the music department.

Then spent "a huge amount of money" to get the textbooks of the music department through the seniors of the music department.

Although the music department of Shangju is not very famous, this is just right for Peng Hui.

Then Peng Hui began to learn lyrics and composition from scratch.

Surprisingly, I don't know if it's because he has talent in it, or because these things are really not difficult, after half a semester of hard work, Peng Hui finally figured out the creation process of a song and how a song is made.

This may seem like nonsense, but in fact, it is a very critical issue.

Actually, it's not an easy thing to write a song.

First of all, when you write lyrics, you have to rhyme, you have to pay attention to symmetry, you have to pay attention to many things.

If it's a composition, there's more detail to deal with.

It is already not easy to be able to self-study the entire music department for three years in half a year.

The time has reached the middle of 14 years.

At this time, Peng Hui was already a sophomore senior.

Rumors that the puppet show was going to be canceled grew wider, and many people looked at him with sympathy or schadenfreude.

Of course, Peng Hui also became a celebrity at the school.

After all, in the past four years, there has only been one student in puppet theater, Peng Hui (Wang Kun has already changed departments in the second half of the first semester).

The kind or malicious gaze did not affect Peng Hui, but made Peng Hui more and more determined to save the puppet show.

It's just that ideas are just ideas after all, and there is still a long way to go to transform them into reality.

On this day, the class of the music department ended, and just as Peng Hui was about to leave with the textbook, he was stopped by the teacher.

"Teacher Li, are you looking for me?"

After half a year of contact, Mr. Li naturally knew Peng Hui's plans.

Regarding Peng Hui's stubbornness, Mr. Li didn't know what to say.

There was even a little depression.

Why didn't he take a fancy to Peng Hui in the first place and pull him to the music department?

In fact, in the eyes of the students, Peng Hui is pitiful and pathetic.

But in the eyes of teachers, Peng Hui is extremely rare.

Especially when Peng Hui showed a talent far beyond ordinary people.

Even more so.

How can a young man with perseverance, perseverance, and talent not be liked?

"I heard you want to write a song?"

"Yes. Peng Hui didn't hide anything, and said with a wry smile: "I want to write a song about puppetry, but ......"

Speaking of this, Peng Hui's mouth was a little bitter.

After all, he has experienced too few things, and he took it for granted that writing songs was easy, but now the reality has given him a slap in the face.

So far, he has no idea at all.

"En......" Teacher Li nodded.

Peng Hui's eyes lit up, and he looked at Mr. Li expectantly and asked, "Teacher, do you want to help me create?"

"I'm sorry, I can't either. Teacher Li's very decisive answer made Peng Hui frustrated.

"I have a small question, though. Teacher Li smiled and asked softly, "Do you have to write a puppet show song first?"

"Huh?" Peng Hui was stunned for a moment, then thought about it with some hesitation, shook his head, and said directly: "I also know that I can't write it in a short time, so ...... Not in a hurry. ”

Although he said this, he couldn't hide the bitterness on his face.

If it could be written, who would say that?

"In that case...... Then why don't you write a simple song and give it a try?"

Peng Hui was stunned, a little stunned.

"You see, the reason why you can't write now is because you haven't found the feeling of writing yet, am I right?" asked Teacher Li with a smile.

Peng Hui hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"I can't help you much, but I'm a few years older than you, and I'm still a teacher, so I'll give you a little advice, okay?"

"Teacher, you say. Peng Hui said respectfully.

"I don't know what kind of puppet show song you're going to write, but you can try to start with simple songs, and when you have accumulated a certain amount of experience, you can naturally create the songs you want to write, after all, you also said that you are not in a hurry now. ”

"This ......" Teacher Li's suggestion suddenly moved Peng Hui's heart.

Teacher Li struck while the iron was hot and said, "You can't just think about running before you learn to walk, so let's write a simple song first." ”

"Then teacher, do you have any recommended types?" Peng Hui asked.

"Love songs or school songs. "Mr. Li is really a senior music teacher, and he quickly gave his own advice.

"Love song or campus song?" Peng Hui thought.

Seeing Peng Hui deep in thought, the corners of Mr. Li's eyes showed a touch of relief.

"Okay, I'll think about it, thank you, Mr. Li!" Peng Hui saluted respectfully and thanked him.

"Alright, now that you've figured it out, I'll go first. "Mr. Li retired successfully.

Peng Hui nodded.

When he went out, he glanced back at Peng Hui, who was still in a daze, and Mr. Li breathed a sigh of relief.

Out of the door, Mr. Li took out his mobile phone.

"Lao Zhao, I've done what you said, yes, Peng Peng has already begun to consider changing directions, but...... Are you really willing to let Peng Peng come to the music department?" asked Mr. Li.

"It's not that I'm reluctant to give up the question, but ...... I don't want him to be wasted, Pumbaa is the most gifted kid I've ever seen, but...... His heart is too big, too big to be changed at his age, how can he spend his whole life here? That's why I'll let you explain him. Zhao Feng's voice sounded.

"Tut, he has a teacher like you, he is really convinced by eight lifetimes of cultivation. ”

"No, having an apprentice like him is actually a blessing in my life. ”

"Okay, let's not talk about it, by the way, when are you going to go to the burlesque?"

"A week later, the papers are down. ”

"What about the puppet system?"

"The students of the puppet department will be merged into other departments. ”

"Okay, call me when you're free, we haven't had a drink in a long time. ”

"Okay. ”

Teacher Li's voice faded away.

Peng Hui, who was deep in thought, did not know that the puppet system would be annexed in a week.

Rather, the whole person's mind is immersed in the sea of musical notes.

He listened to Mr. Li's advice and planned to choose simple songs to compose first.

"Is that a love song or a school song?"

Peng Hui muttered to himself.

But then I thought that my purpose was to create a song that matched the puppet show, and obviously, such a song was not suitable for love.

So naturally, there is only one choice left, campus songs.

Determining the direction is not finished, but also the instrument needs to be determined.

However, looking at the few living expenses left in his wallet, Peng Hui fell into a dilemma.

Forget it, anyway, it's to create a simple song, so it's naturally the most commonly used instrument in campus songs...... Guitar.

What to do if you can't afford a guitar?

Peng Hui was not worried, he took out an old-fashioned guitar from the senior at a very low price.

Although the guitar has been polished and painted, the guitar strings are still intact because of good maintenance.

In other words, even though the guitar doesn't look good, it can still be played normally.

Although he is in the music department, he will also be exposed to the guitar on weekdays, but after all, he is still a new instrument, so it took Peng Hui three days to get used to it.

The approach he took was simple, and that was to eat and live with the guitar.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but after a few days, I finally felt an indescribable intimacy when I touched the guitar.

Then Peng Hui began to tune it.

It's strange to say, with the guitar making a crisp sound, a melody naturally emerged in Peng Hui's mind.

Subconsciously, Peng Hui played according to this melody.
