The performance hall is in Huayin County, and it is said to be a performance hall, but it is actually a small stage, the place is not big, and it can sit about 100 people when it is full.

When you buy a ticket, you have to queue up at the ticket office, and a ticket is not expensive for five yuan, and almost everyone can afford it.

Zhang He remained silent, pretending to be an ordinary theater watcher, so he walked in, and after checking the ticket, Zhang He entered it.

It was surprising that the seats were so full and full.

Many audience members danced and discussed the next performance.

Zhang He found a vacant seat and sat down, and on the right hand side was a woman with a baby, looking at the stage while coaxing the baby.

On the left-hand side, it's a middle-aged man, wearing a jacket, glasses, and flowing hair.

"Brother, I think you're coming back for the first time, right?" the middle-aged man took the initiative to talk.

Zhang He's appearance was a little cramped, it was obvious that it was not the first time to come, and the attitude of the first-time visitors was unnatural.

"It's really my first time here, big brother, how many times have you come here?" Zhang He began to perform.

came here to inquire about the news, Zhang He did not have the impulse, and went directly to find someone in charge, but planned to see how the performance was first.

"Then it has to be, I came here on the first day of this show, and I've seen it several times. "The middle-aged man is very talkative.

"I watched a show at the People's Theater last time, oops, that performance is so flirtatious!" the middle-aged man was full of energy, gesturing happily in his hands.

There was a personal introduction, Zhang He chatted for a while.

This middle-aged man works in the local food bureau, named Wang Chen, and he became acquainted with Lao Yan at the People's Theater, and has been out of control ever since.

Zhang He made up an identity, saying that he was a self-employed entrepreneur, doing a small business, and he would come and see the performances here when he was idle.

Wang Chen did not doubt that Zhang He's bearing was not bad, like a businessman.

"Actually, let's be honest, the performance in this area is general, and it is not as comfortable as I am in the theater, and I don't know if the people in this area are in the same group as the theater. Wang Chen commented.

In this era, the Internet was not yet developed, information did not circulate rapidly, and the way for people to obtain information was still television.

Lao Yan was selected as a national intangible cultural heritage and became a representative, but Zhang Delin has not yet become famous as a few artists.

What do the audience recognize?

The audience only recognizes the name of Lao Yan, only watching the play and not looking at the people, as for whether the performance is good or not, they can feel it, but they will not have too many ideas.

Whether it is authentic or not, the audience is too lazy to understand, and they can't understand it.

"It's going to start right away, let's see. Wang Chen pointed to the stage.

Zhang He raised his head and looked over.

On the stage, a female host walked up with a microphone and said, "The old performance will start immediately, and the opening scene "Will Shake the Mountains and Rivers". ”

There was a round of applause from the audience.

The hostess exits and the actors take the stage.

This group of actors looked to be at least fifty years old, and they were dressed like the people of Delinban, but the instruments and benches in their hands looked a little new.

"Brother Wang, where did this troupe come from?" Zhang He said.

Wang Chen thought for a while and said: "I inquired later, the boss is from Huayin, and he used to be a performer, like red and white ceremonies, everyone can do it, called Liu Qianrun." ”

"But I don't know where this performance troupe came from, when it was advertised, it was said that it was from Hugou Village, the birthplace of the old dialect, but we haven't been there, and we don't know. Wang Chen continued.

By this time, the actors on the stage had already begun to perform.

An actor smashes a piece of wood on the bench with a crisp sound, and the performance begins.

The lead singer and the player of the moon violin began to shout at the top of his voice: "Military Academy!"

A cottage is a cottage.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhang He heard it, and he was exposed to the old artists all day long, although his singing skills were a little worse, but his ability to taste was definitely not low.

Zhang He dared to pat his chest and said that he sang better than these people when he went up.

"Hey!" said the other actors.

"Prepare the horses!" the lead singer continued.

Some people applauded and some frowned.

"This doesn't taste right, it's not the same as what I heard at the People's Theater. ”

"I went to the town a while ago to see a performance, and this piece is obviously not as good as the performance team!"

"I guess it's a different level, the performance team is still touring Weinan now, let's just listen to this." ”

"The first time I heard it, I think it's okay!"

"I don't think it's good, I think it's so powerful, it's at this level, I won't come next time. ”

In the audience, everyone exchanged comments with each other.

After singing a song, the actors continued to sing, all of which were repertoire sung by Delinban on stage, with nothing new and unnatural, which can be said to be a parody show.

Zhang He was a little angry in his heart, this was ruining things.

It's okay for audiences who have heard the real old-fashioned, they know the situation, and if they haven't heard it, it will have a big impact, which will make people misunderstand the original appearance of the old-fashioned.

"Alas, I can't sing it, but I can barely listen to it, and I've been to the other two venues, so this is the best. Wang Chen said while listening to the play.

"Brother Wang, are the other two fields the same as here?" Zhang He asked.

"It's all about the same, a boss with a group of actors on stage. Wang Chen said.

"Why don't you listen to the real old talk?" Zhang He continued to ask.

Wang Chen smiled and said: "Aren't those people all performing everywhere, I can't listen to it if I want to, if they have a special performance in Huayin, then I will definitely come every day and not come here." ”

The speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, and Zhang He's mind is also active.

At present, the performances of veteran artists are still linked to government units, and they tour everywhere, and there is no precedent for opening their own shows and performing by themselves.

Wherever there is work, go where you can do it, after all, it is risky to start by yourself.

When the performance on the stage was over, Wang Chen got up and was about to leave, and when he saw that Zhang He had no intention of leaving, he asked.

"Dude, aren't you leaving?"

"Brother Wang, you go first, I want to find someone else's boss, and I also want to start a scene. Zhang He said with a smile.

"You?" Wang Chen was a little strange.

"Then you go, this opening is not easy, you have to find a place first, and you have to find actors, brother will tell you the truth, unless you can call that group of masters, otherwise your business will definitely not be able to do the current ones. ”

After speaking, Wang Chen turned around and left, not staying longer.

It's just a meeting in Pingshui, maybe they won't meet again.

The audience left their seats one after another, and in the end, Zhang He was left alone.

After seeing that no one was there, Zhang He stood up and walked towards the stage.

A man in his thirties, dressed like a businessman who had gone to the sea to do business, came out of the background.

"Man, why aren't you leaving?" the man asked.

"I want to find Mr. Liu Qianrun. Zhang He's attitude was respectful.

The man raised his eyebrows, took off the sunglasses on his face, and said with a hint of vigilance: "I am Liu Qianrun, what are you looking for me?"

"Hello, Mr. Liu. Zhang He had a mild attitude.

He didn't want to fall out with these people in the first place.

"I am the representative of Huayin's old dialect, my name is Zhang He, and I am from Hugou Village, Shuanghe Town. Zhang He said slowly.

Identifying himself, Liu Qianrun's face changed significantly.

Others don't know what Hugou Village and the surname Zhang represent, but he does.

The real old guy has come to the door.

But Liu Qianrun dared to be a copycat, and he had long been mentally prepared for this, he chuckled and said, "What's wrong? What are you here to say?"

"Mr. Liu, it stands to reason that I shouldn't care about your opening performance, but it's not right for you to play the old tone in the field, the old tone is not what you sing. Zhang He said in a deep voice.

"How can we sing the old dialect if we don't sing it like this? As long as you sing the old dialect, we don't sing the old dialect?" Liu Qianrun didn't care.

Some of the actors backstage also came out when they heard the voice, and everyone glared angrily with a threatening meaning.

Zhang He was not afraid, he was not frightened by these people, no matter how bold he was, he could still beat people here.

"Those old artists are all trained in singing since childhood, and if you sing like this, it will make the people misunderstand the old style. Zhang He said slowly.

"What the hell do you want to say?" Liu Qianrun said impatiently, lighting a cigarette.

"I hope you don't put on a good show here in the future. ”

"Why don't you let us sing the old dialect? If the old dialect belongs to your family, we can't sing it? Which law of the country says that you are only allowed to sing it, and we are not allowed to sing it?" Liu Qianrun was aggressive.

"Young man, I see that you are still too young, the old voice is so popular now, I can earn at least a few hundred yuan for a performance, there is no faster money than the old one, you don't ask me to sing, how is it possible?" Liu Qianrun sneered.

Zhang He took a deep breath, a little helpless.

There is no provision in the law, nor does it stipulate intangible cultural heritage.

The old style is just a traditional drama, and there is no reason to say that others can't sing it.

Now the old dialect is in the limelight, and the speculators pull a group of people to sing the old cottage dialect, and earn a few hundred yuan a night, but tens of thousands of yuan a month, which is the same as picking up money.

"If you have the ability, you will ban my place, and if you don't have the ability, you should go back to where you go. Liu Qianrun sneered.

After speaking, Liu Qianrun returned to the backstage with a group of people and ignored Zhang He.

Zhang He didn't have that much ability to ask the relevant departments to ban this performance venue.

What's more, people have not violated the law or violated the law, and there is no reason to ban it.

Zhang He felt a little lost in his heart, walked out of the performance hall, and went to the other two performance troupes, all of whom gave the same answer.

Sitting in his car, Zhang He felt a little panicked in his heart.

It's uncomfortable, it's really uncomfortable.

The old cavity has not really become popular all over the country, but the fire broke out first in the wall, let go of these people, Zhang He was unhappy, they affected the audience's normal judgment of the old cavity.

If you don't let it go, you have no other way.

Zhang He started the car and returned to Hugou Village.

Pushing open the door and preparing to drink, Zhao Yun happened to walk in from the outside when he heard the sound of the door ringing.

"Xiao He, why are you back?, where is Lord Delin?" Zhao Yun looked puzzled.

Zhang He raised his hand, his whole body suddenly softened, his eyes went dark, and then he didn't know anything.
