49 The stage is like a battlefield

The real joy of "A Thousand Miles of Travel" is the lyrics "Mother's eyes" that appear twice. Because the effect of crying is diluted, there is no better way to express passion at this time.

Captain Tian could only howl dryly. In order to move the audience, he used vibrato uncontrollably, and as a result, it made people feel nondescript.

"Now it's time to leave home

Only then did I understand the worries of my mother

It's a thousand miles away, and I haven't walked a single step

I saw tears streaming down my mother's eyes

Mom's eyes ......"

Seeing that the effect of the vibrato is not good, Captain Tian can only use his stage experience and add some action performances, wanting to add color to his singing.

However, in the audience below, the applause was only polite, and did not have the effect of thunderous applause at the end of the first paragraph.

"Pastoral singing well! One more, one more!" suddenly a female voice shouted from the audience. This cry in the empty theater,

The silence with most of the audience seems so monotonous, so lonely, and even so incredible. Some of the fighters even sneered mischievously.

Hearing such a monotonous shout, it was impossible for the host to invite Captain Tian to the stage and let him come back. But when I heard this shout, my heart became tense in vain.

I could hear that the shout came from the mouth of the regiment commander's wife, Huang Yuying. If it is someone else's family, I am afraid that they do not have the courage to shout and scream for their idols.

The return of the stage performance is the greatest encouragement to the actors, which proves that the audience appreciates the singers, loves and affirms the singers, so they ask their favorite actors to sing a new song regardless of the normal procedures of the performance.

However, this kind of thing is usually the voice shouted by a group of people on the premise that the singing is extremely successful. If it's not a group behavior, but an individual behavior, it seems a little inappropriate.

It's like a person who fails to give a speech, and the few scattered applause below is not as good as nothing. If you don't get it right, it's equivalent to applauding and applauding.

However, Huang Yuying is not an ordinary person's family after all, he is the wife of the head of the regiment and the leader of the fat powder team. Seeing that his shouting was a little snubbed,

She wasted no time in alerting the sisters around her and asking them to shout along with her. As a result, the single fight just now became the cry of a small group.

Even if the number of people is small, it is a call to encourage the actors to return. If it was ordinary people shouting there, the host Director Dong would ignore it.

However, seeing the head of the regiment's wife, Huang Yuying, shouting so well, Director Dong didn't dare to despise it, and then said a cushion word,

"The audience loved the pastoral singing and hoped that he would come again. I want to see what Captain Tian is doing, can I do another song?"

As he spoke, he came to the background to find Captain Tian and said, "Lao Tian, the audience wants to ask for another song?"

Unexpectedly, Tian Yuan was very cold to Director Dong's words. smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Dong, I'm really sorry, my voice is too tired!"

In fact, Director Dong just wanted to give Tian Yuan and Huang Yuying a face and a step respectively, he knew that if Tian Yuan was allowed to return, the audience would be angry, and there would be no applause.

Hearing the pastoral excuse, he happily found a step down and told the audience:

"Captain Tian is both an actor and a director in the reunion performance, it's too hard! It's really hard to continue, now, can we invite our rookie to perform on stage?"

Director Dong just reminded everyone that the next rookie performance was next, but he didn't mention anyone's name, and he, who had been the host of the performance for many years, saw the expression of the countryside.

He saw that Tian Yuan did not have the ability to sing another song, but when he saw the cold applause of the audience, and I was discouraged when I saw me who was eager to try.

If Director Dong solemnly introduces my name at this time, Tian Yuan will not be acceptable. For the sake of the later performances, he can only take a roundabout way to launch me, a newcomer.

"Chiefs, comrades-in-arms, have you ever seen Yangge on stilts? I believe that even if you have seen it, it will be on TV, right? Today, a real Yangge program on stilts is about to appear.

"This stilt Yangge was broadcast live on CCTV. And the starring role of the show is the inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of Phoenix stilt Yangge, Wang Wenhua, below, let us welcome him and his new comrades-in-arms with warm applause!"

Of course, the first program we performed was not "Jiang Taigong Fishing", but the main theme program that reflected the training of the troops: climbing over the wall obstacles. To put it bluntly, it is a stacked arhat performance.

According to the script, an obstacle suddenly appears in the march of a group of soldiers, which may be a high wall, a cliff, or an enemy power grid, in short, a difficult barrier to overcome. At this time, the squad leader first said a few bold words, and then ordered: "Take a human ladder to pass!"

Hearing the order, I was the first to appear, first with a five-step punch, then crouched down, and then, one by one, my new comrades-in-arms set up a human ladder on my shoulders......

In order to show the difficulty of taking the ladder, every time a new comrade-in-arms jumps up, I have to subconsciously fall a little, and I have to make unbearable painful gestures. However, when the last comrade jumped up and the ladder was completed, I had to stand up with my legs upright and grin my teeth in front of the audience.

I alone at the bottom of the top of so many comrades-in-arms, the burden can be imagined, under the exaggerated accompaniment and contrast of Chen Jie's gongs and drums, the audience's applause was a tsunami, and even the leaders in the front row of the audience applauded warmly, and the head of the unit actually stood up. Something shouted excitedly in his mouth.

At this time, I remembered the days when I practiced horse walking in Xie's class. If it weren't for the strict requirements of Master and Senior Brother, how could I have achieved such success today?

When the curtain fell, it should have been a short break to change the program, but the audience was in a mess, and they didn't know what was going on? Later, I learned that Xu Wuhao, the supreme leader who watched the program, asked a question: "Didn't you introduce that new soldier as the inheritor of stilt Yangge? Why didn't he perform on stilts?"

As soon as Xu No. 5 asked, the political commissar immediately asked the head of the unit. Only then did the head of the unit know that he had paid attention to the politics of the show, but he had forgotten the artistic performance of the stilt Yangge, and immediately told the stage manager Secretary Wang: Find a way to let Wenhua perform on stilts. So, Officer Wang immediately remembered his second plan: performing "Jiang Taigong Fishing".

When I got backstage, I was about to sit down and rest for a while, when I saw Director Wang wearing Jiang Taigong's costume, I knew that he was going to appear on the stage, and we were going to perform "Jiang Taigong Fishing".

Actually, because of my deep kung fu, I was not afraid of performing "Jiang Taigong Fishing", wasn't it just a few spins and a big split?

But my partner's performance made me a little worried: when the senior brother performed with me, I followed the rhythm of his performance and looked at his eyes.

I don't know, but he is my leader or the benefactor who led me to the army, and if his performance is wrong, how can I play for him?

Director Dong's mat was deliberately delayed for a while, but the more he foreshadowed, the higher the audience's expectations. When Wang and I stepped on stilts and went on the stage, there was a burst of cheers in the audience.

It seems that young people, whether they understand art or not, seem to like new things.

I stared at Mr. Wang's footsteps and followed him closely, but the two of us had just walked a circle in the center of the stage, and Mr. Wang suddenly made a chic fishhook flick movement, and then disappeared on the side of the stage.

I took a look with my peripheral vision, and he was actually supported by Chen Jie, sitting on a high chair inside the curtain, and almost closed his eyes to recuperate. I was very entangled in my heart, what is Director Wang doing? Retreating to the second line, and putting all the drama on me.

On the rivers and lakes, it is a commendable practice to give the drama to the younger generation. It's a virtue to give the younger generation a chance! But it's too much for Secretary Wang to let him do this today, right?

But, since that's the case, I can only afford all the drama. Fortunately, Director Wang is very dedicated, although people sit there, the fishing rod and hook are still serious, I just want to fool things and can't fool things.

I performed a one-legged dance according to the rules, and added a fancy thrilling action before the split, which made the audience laugh, and the next split action actually made the audience scared "ah".

If I perform in the Xie family class, I should exchange eyes or movements with the senior brother at this time, but the current Wang is so far away from me, I really can't communicate with him.

Just look at Chen Jie, who is directing gongs and drums on the side of the stage, fortunately, Chen Jie understood what I meant, and immediately made a gesture of patting his shoulders with both hands. I see, it's somebody going to jump on my shoulder.

I squatted shorter, ready to accept the weight of a man. In the past tense. Senior brothers and sisters have all been on my shoulders, but their movements are very light, that day the new comrade-in-arms in Heilongjiang, I don't know why, his movements are so heavy, plus stupid, it makes me scared.

However, just as the rhythm of Chen Jie's gongs and drums changed, a red figure suddenly flew onto my shoulder......

Why is this person's movements so light? It's just that the little junior sister has reappeared. I was surprised when I heard a reminder from my shoulder:

"Brother Wenhua, you act normally, I will follow the path of the beautiful woman broadcast live on CCTV, and you will perform normally. ”

Oh, okay, I used my performance to give her a signal that she knew, and then I followed Director Wang's fishing rod and swirled around the stage. Slowly, Yingzi made a gorgeous move of flying swallow wings on my shoulder, and then stood on my head to the cheers of the audience and did an even more gorgeous dance move.

It wasn't until she couldn't make new tricks that I sent her to Director Wang's fishing hook, and "Jiang Taigong Fishing" was a success.

Just as he was about to step down from the stage to rest, Director Dong suddenly announced: This is the end of the performance. The chief is invited to meet the actors on stage and take a group photo with the actors.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but be surprised: What's the matter? This is the end? My show will actually become the finale?

According to the rules, it should be Captain Tian's program that should be put to the end! However, when I think about it, who is still competing with the show that Director Wang has made his debut?

Xu No. 5 came to the stage with the head of the regiment and the political commissar, and Xu No. 5 also patted me on the shoulder and said, "Your next game is good!"

I was amazed when I heard it: Xu No. 5 actually knows how to play the plate? It seems that he doesn't like stilt Yangge ordinarily.

On this occasion, Lao Song is naturally the photographer who is the best to do. A few days later, after he gave me a public group photo, he would actually take out another unpublished photo and hand it to me, saying, "Keep it well." ”

When I looked at it, it turned out to be a performance photo of Yingzi and me performing on stage. Only then did I see that the movements made by Yingzi standing on my shoulders were so stretched. It's so chic and beautiful.

Looking at her performance, I think the little junior sister back then was far worse than her! No wonder people applauded so enthusiastically at that time, it was because the audience was conquered by Yingzi's beauty!

One day after the reunion performance, the head of the unit suddenly came to me to talk, saying that I had performed very well in the performance, and for this reason, I was given a chance to learn, and let me go to the group army teaching team to participate in a literary and artistic training class.

When I came to the group army teaching team, Deputy Director Yang of the Military Culture Department mobilized us for the opening of the school year, which was nothing more than to encourage us to study hard and gain something in these few days.

I was a bit disappointed in the subsequent lessons. It turned out that this was not much literary training, but more like a large lecture. At first, he was a writer in the army who lectured on the knowledge of literary creation, and later an artist who lectured on the knowledge of world famous paintings;

There are also singers and professors of the conservatory who talk about music knowledge and world famous songs. After a few days, I think I have indeed increased a lot of literary knowledge or literary knowledge, but I don't know what use these things are to improve my performance level?

When we were puzzled by this question, the leader of the teaching team suddenly organized us to study a superior document: the main content of the document was to reduce the non-combat organization of the troops, including the disbandment and reduction of literary and artistic teams at all levels.

Because I am a recruit, I am not sensitive to the content of this document, but after the document was announced, Deputy Director Yang told me a little pessimistically: Wenhua, your troupe performance team may be disbanded!

As expected, after leaving the teaching team and returning to the regiment headquarters, the head of the unit told me: According to the instructions of the superiors, the regimental performance team was disbanded, and the personnel placement was in principle where the leaders went.

You turned out to be a soldier in the guard platoon, so let's go back to the guard platoon! Fortunately, we are all organs, not far away, and we have time to visit the political department.

I can't help but admire Deputy Director Yang's ability to predict.

Because there was no place for me in the trolley squad, I went back to the guard platoon and needed to be reassigned. Leaving the Political Office, I walked straight to the office of the Management Unit on the first floor of the regimental headquarters.

"Report!" I shouted as I stood outside the door of the chief's office.

There was no permission to "please come in", but when I saw that the door was opened, and when I saw that I was standing at the door with a backpack, the head of the unit laughed and said, "Wenhua is back! ”

The head of the unit is a smiling tiger-like figure, and he does not smile or speak to the soldiers, so he was once known as the "man who loves soldiers".

Seeing that my face was not very good, he said: "Wenhua, you performed so well on stage, we thought you wouldn't be able to come back.

"We're glad you can come back now! Hehe, the place in the trolley class was originally reserved for you. But the regiment commander instructed us to adjust Wu Erdun's job, and we have to implement it, right?"

"Isn't it just that you can't be a driver? nothing!" I heard the chief of the unit say, and I became magnanimous.

"Well, come back, what do you think, which class do you want to go to?" asked him with a smile.

"Obey the organization!" I made a high gesture.

"Then go to the third guard class! That day, Han Derang watched your performance and praised you for being a rare kung fu master! If you go, he will definitely welcome you. ”

"Yes. "I don't know the sophistication of people in society, and I don't know how to curry favor with the leaders at this time, and say something to ask the leaders to help and support.

I only know the general principle of obedience to the organization in the ideological and political education of the recruit company. In the future, whenever I think about this moment, I feel how stupid I was at that time.

"Well, Wenhua, you are young and not low in education. I believe that you will definitely do well in your new job!" the head looked at me with a smile and motioned for me to go.

I saluted the commander of the unit and was about to turn around, but I didn't expect the commander to stop me and say, "Wenhua, wait a minute, let the assistant send you over." At this time, the assistant from the other room came out with a smile and made a gesture of invitation to me.

Walking out of the building, I felt like I was at home and on the ground. Although it has been some days since I enlisted in the army. A few days ago, whether it was in the trolley class or the training class of the teaching team,

It's like flying in the sky, and I don't know where my feet have fallen? Now, I will soon end my life like a wandering and start to be a soldier in a down-to-earth manner.

The third squad leader, Han De, asked the assistant to personally send me to his class dormitory, and applauded again and again, saying, "The kung fu master is here, welcome, welcome!" Then, the other fighters also applauded and welcomed the squad leader.

"Hehe, squad leader Han, Wenhua was supposed to stay in the performance team. Due to special circumstances, I will come back temporarily. He can be said to have come to you with admiration. You have to take him well and strive to receive meritorious service and awards as soon as possible. "The assistant spoke politely.

"Yes. Seeing what the assistant said, Han squad leader stood up and saluted and said: "I promise to live up to the expectations of the leadership, give full play to the role of Wenhua's literary and artistic backbone, and do a better job in the class!"

"Hmm. It just so happens that it's time for a break. You take him for a walk. Let's find out about the situation!" Seeing that squad leader Han was happy to accept me, the assistant felt that he didn't need to do any more ideological and political work, so he immediately got up and went back.

Squad leader Han assigned me a lower bunk near the window, and I opened my backpack and carefully sorted out the housekeeping. Han squad leader praised:

"I thought you let that Wang Shuaibing take the sparse Hilla loose in the trolley class, but I didn't expect you to organize your housekeeping so well. Well, that's it for housekeeping. I'll take you out for a walk. ”

Out of the dormitory, it is the guard platoon playground. Team Leader Han pointed to the playground and said with a smile: "I won't introduce the playground." This is where our platoon of guards drills every morning.

"We are full-time security guards, and military appearance and discipline are very important. When we run in the morning, we are not only exercising, but also practicing walking in unison, walking in steps, and once we are on the sentry, we must show the demeanor of the guards. ”

"Hmm. "When I saw the Han squad leader's burly figure and neat military appearance, I felt that this person was born with a military posture, and his every move was the image of a pacesetter.

Leaving the playground, Han Derang actually took me to the office building again.

When I entered the building, I did not go to the management unit or the political office, but entered a small room with the words "civil servant" written on the sign on the door.

"Civil servant?" I was stunned when I saw these three words. "Hehe, we civil servants are not cadres of local government agencies. The civil servants of our army are, to put it bluntly, orderly soldiers. ”

Han Derang understood the essence of civil servants in a popular saying, "Orderlies are to serve the chief, and the specific job is to clean the floor and clean up." ”

"Hmm. At this time, I remembered that I had just come to the guard platoon recruit class, and the old squad leader introduced that the four squads of the guard platoon had different divisions: the first and second squads were mainly responsible for standing guard and sentry, and the third and fourth squads were not only guards, but also responsible for the official affairs of the regimental organs.

In addition to brooms, mops, rags, and several thermos in the civil servant's room. The water in the big kettle was boiling, and Han said:

"Delivering water is an important part of our civil servants' work, and we need to make sure that the water in the chief's office is fresh and boiled every day.

"A few years ago, there was a veteran oiler who wanted to be lazy, the water bottle of the first day was full, the chief didn't drink it, he forgot to change the water, and as a result, the regiment commander drank it, and he dropped the thermos bottle all of a sudden!"
