Chapter 308: Promoting Traditional Culture (6)
"So you forgot to take something......"
As soon as the door opened, Lin Yi was stunned as soon as he came to his mouth, and for a while, he was a little confused, because it was not the second old man who went and returned, but the witness, the old man Fang Longfang.
"Elder Fang, why are you here?"
"Please come in, please come in. ”
Lin Yilian invited Old Man Fang in.
This is a real national treasure-level character, the musical instruments of the five thousand years of Huaguo can basically be played, and even the musical instruments of some ethnic minorities can bloom in his hands.
A national treasure artist!
Moreover, he has a deep affection for the traditional culture of China, and wants to pass it on and promote it......
Such an old man deserves the respect of any Chinese person.
It was not a matter of money to invite him to be a witness before, but after learning that this was the most traditional Chinese wedding, he agreed.
Didn't ask for money either.
even came with the salute, but when he left, he was happy, and the two sides were also friends.
At the same time, for such an old man, Lin Yi and his family also attach great importance to him.
"I'm going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. ”
He smiled, entered the room and sat down, and on the other side, Xue Yao was already walking over with hot tea.
"Didn't bother you on your honeymoon, did you?"
Old Man Fang was a little embarrassed, after all, he had just been married for less than half a month, and he came to the door by himself, which was indeed a little unreasonable.
But he really couldn't wait.
"Where can we be? We are idle, old man, you can remember us if you have something, that is our honor. ”
Lin Yi laughed.
"You kid, you just have a sweet mouth. ”
Old Man Fang laughed: "Yes, let's not be polite, I'm here, I really want to ask you for help." ”
"Speak. ”
The two of them said that they were listening.
"That's right. ”
The old man said slowly.
"Over the years, our country has been suffering from the impact of foreign culture, which, as you know, mainly comes from Western countries. ”
"Whether it's the costumes, the holidays, the food, the movies, the music, the other things. ”
"You guys are in the film industry, and we are in the music industry. ”
"I have to say that in today's music circle, we have folk music...... There is almost no place to live. ”
Speaking of this, the old man sighed heavily, and he was full of white hair, and at this moment, he looked very helpless.
"Folk music?"
Lin Yi nodded slowly: "I probably know something." ”
"You know?"
Old Man Fang was a little surprised, and then smiled bitterly: "It's a shame to say that our ancestors have inherited things for thousands of years, and they are ...... Many have been lost. ”
"Even those that haven't been lost are weakening. ”
"Now there is another me, I can barely hold up the stage, and I can play all kinds of folk music. ”
"But what about after I'm gone, decades from now?"
"Folk music, is it going to decline completely?"
The old man was very sad.
What he has worked hard for all his life, he can hardly see the results, and he can only watch him decline.
This is undoubtedly a torture and a pain.
"I've thought of a lot of ways and made a lot of attempts. ”
"But...... Little success. ”
"A lot of people don't understand why I did this, and even tell me that decline is inevitable because Western instruments are better, more in line with modern trends, and more popular ......."
"Huh. ”
"Popular, I admit, but better, how to talk about it?!"
"Give me a five-stringed lute and I can interpret the sound of instruments from Kyoto to the Two Rivers Valley, to Arabia and even to Europe!"
"Who else can do this, but who else is there for an instrument that doesn't have electricity?"
"Guqin, Guzheng, Erhu...... Which one is not a royal instrument?"
"Not to mention that folk music crushes Western music, but at least, the two sides should exist equally, and should not be crushed, or even decline to the point of almost extinction......"
The more the old man spoke, the more excited he became, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.
"Let you see the smile. ”
"At a great age, still so ......"
Lin Yi and the two shook their heads slowly at the same time.
"Understandable, really. ”
Lin Yi opened his mouth and said: "The things inherited by the ancestors are really not impossible, but many people don't understand them, so they blindly deny them. ”
Fang Long?
This old man is too similar to the old man Fang Jinlong in his previous life.
Of course, it's not their looks, it's their pursuit and status.
This is a real master of Chinese music!
"What can we do?" Xue Yao also asked.
"By the way, I haven't got down to business yet. ”
The old man said embarrassedly: "I don't want the folk music to decline completely, I want to toss it at an age when I can still toss!"
"Therefore, I planned to make a movie, hoping to use it to promote folk music, so that more people know that our folk music is not so unbearable, and it is not garbage that should perish!"
"A few days ago, attending your wedding made me feel the beauty of another traditional culture, and I loved it and was very excited. ”
"Plus, in the field of film, you're professional. ”
"So I thought, please play the male and female leads. ”
"Of course, that's just my idea, and it's best if you want to, and it's okay if you don't. ”
Speaking of which, he was even more embarrassed.
"Moreover, our investment is limited, and we may give you ...... salary"
"It's fine. ”
Lin Yi waved his hand and agreed: "We promise." ”
"Yes, old man. Xue Yao also smiled and said: "To be a witness to our marriage, you didn't take a penny, and even came with the gift." ”
"It's not the same ......"
The old man waved his hand again and again: "No matter how good the relationship is, you have to settle accounts." ”
"I'll be a witness to your marriage, it's just a hobby, and even if you look up to my old man, you will invite me. ”
"But your profession is an actor. And the pay will definitely not be low......"
"Wouldn't it be a matter of reaching out to you for money to let you participate in the show for free? My old man, I'm not so shameless ......."
"Come on. ”
The two didn't insist: "You have the final say." ”
"When will the movie start? Anyway, we're idle, and we can leave at any time. ”
"That's ......"
Old Man Fang also breathed a sigh of relief: "I can't shoot it for the time being, but if you agree, it's almost the same, it is estimated that in three or five days, I will contact you after I have made preparations?"
"That's it!"
......
Old Man Fang left, he didn't eat a bite of rice, and it could be seen that he was very happy.
"Promoting traditional culture......"
Xue Yao suddenly sighed with emotion: "It seems that we are going farther and farther on this road?"
"That's good, isn't it?"
Lin Yi smiled.
