196 Everything is ready

In the next few months, the people in the 18th class of special recruitment finally understood why Xu Yizhou was called the devil Xiaoxiaosheng.

Every morning at half past five in the morning, I go to the playground on the top of the mountain to run 20 laps of the mountain, press the legs for half an hour, 300 positive kicks, and 300 side kicks.

The most tearful thing is that Xu Yizhou has strict requirements for the low level of leg press and kick height.

No matter who it is, as long as it doesn't meet his requirements for a while, the ring ruler will definitely hit him on the ass in the next second.

Men and women are treated equally!

In the afternoon, the basic skills were also tortured by the crowd, stepping up, cloud hands, lower waist, consuming legs, eyes, and taking a big top......

Every day, Xu Yizhou changed his law and tossed hard, not to mention the girls in the class, and even a few boys were tossed and secretly wiped their tears.

Among the twelve students in the class, the only exception was Cheng Xiaolou.

Whether it was shouting, pressing, kicking, or other basic skills in the afternoon, he did not show the slightest abnormality, just like a precision machine, meticulously completed according to Xu Yizhou's requirements.

Even if he kicks 300 times in a row, the height of his kick will never drop by half a point in the last shot.

At the beginning of the school year, the students of Royal Peking Opera University were excited to learn that the boss of Cheng, the most popular super-first-line big horn in the pear orchard industry, would come to school on time every day.

When class is over, the classroom where Cheng Xiaolou is located is always crowded with people, and when he practices morning exercises in the playground on the top of the mountain in the morning, the location of the special recruitment class is always the most crowded.

For the pursuit of his classmates, Cheng Xiaolou has always treated him with a normal heart, when someone greets him, he will smile and nod in return, and when a girl writes him a love letter, he refuses with a smile.

As for the love letters that some male classmates quietly stuffed into his desk, he would politely throw them into the trash.

From the moment he entered the school, Cheng Xiaolou positioned himself as an ordinary college student, attending classes on time every day, practicing hard, driving to meet with Duan Lanquan and them after school to rehearse "The Legend of the White Snake", and when necessary, he went to the company prepared by Pan Yu to have a look.

On weekends, I occasionally accept the invitation of the Sword, Horse, and Sydney, and go to the first-line theater to sing a play on stage.

Cheng Xiaolou, who entered the Royal Peking Opera University, was like a sponge, greedily and frantically absorbing all the Peking Opera nutrients that could be absorbed, constantly enriching himself and integrating into the world.

In his spare time outside of classes, rehearsals, and singing, he will stay at home and write and polish scripts such as "Water Margin", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "The Legend of the West Chamber", and "The Legend of Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" according to the memories in his mind.

Whether it is "Water Margin" or "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", under Cheng Xiaolou's pen, some elements of this world are integrated, not so much copying, but re-creation on the basis of the original work.

The full days always pass quickly, and the end of the year is in a flash.

Under the strict training of Xu Yizhou, Cheng Xiaolou felt that his skills had finally returned to the state at the peak of his previous life.

With his current skills, if he rehearses three plays in three days in a row like he did a few months ago, he will never be tired and paralyzed anymore.

In fact, it's not just him, everyone in the first class of special recruitment has undergone earth-shaking changes in the past few months, whether it is the basic skills of Peking Opera or the spirit, they are much stronger than when the school first started.

The three-fold scenes of "The Legend of the White Snake", "Swimming in the Lake", "Broken Bridge", and "Wine Change", after months of rehearsals and repeated polishing, finally took shape, and after auditions in several third-tier theaters, the response of fans was even better than Cheng Xiaolou expected.

The first book of the book he wrote and polished for several months, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", has also been completed and is just waiting for official release.

Cheng Xiaolou only loved Peking Opera in his life, and the reason why he spent a few months tinkering out the Three Kingdoms was not to make money with it, but to serve Peking Opera.

A "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" contains many classic plays.

Without the foundation of the Three Kingdoms, those classic repertoire are taken out stubbornly, and the sense of substitution and storytelling will be much worse.

If it weren't for the fact that time and energy couldn't keep up, Cheng Xiaolou would even want to write out every script corresponding to those classic plays in one go.

There are too many classic plays with characters and stories from the Three Kingdoms, the most famous ones are "Dingjun Mountain", "Heroes Meeting", "Lost Space Chop", "Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang", "Catch and Release Cao", "Empty City Strategy", "Borrowing the East Wind", "Ganlu Temple" and so on.

Regarding Peking Opera with the theme of the Three Kingdoms, Cheng Xiaolou had also studied this aspect before, and he remembered that there was a book called "The Integration of Opera of the Three Kingdoms", which collected more than 500 operas with the theme of the Three Kingdoms.

Classical Chinese opera and kinship are deeply related, and the two often interact, refer to each other, and develop simultaneously. A history is a living history of opera, and a history of opera is a living history of China.

In Cheng Xiaolou's view, the historical stories of the Three Kingdoms are important sources of themes in all periods of Chinese opera from germination to maturity, with a large number of works and huge influences, and they are also put on the stage earlier.

According to the old inscription Yan Shigu's "The Relics of the Great Cause: The Picture of the Water Master", when Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was in power, he had already played the story of the Three Kingdoms in the form of a puppet show. With the advent of Song miscellaneous operas, the stories of the Three Kingdoms, in which artists played the characters of the Three Kingdoms, appeared on the stage of opera.

As far as Cheng Xiaolou knows, one of the three periods with the most stories in Peking Opera is the Song Dynasty, the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the Three Kingdoms.

Among these three periods, the Three Kingdoms theme plays are the most.

In addition, the Sui and Tang dynasties and the Song dynasties each had three centuries, and the Three Kingdoms only had half a century, so the density of the Three Kingdoms opera was very large.

Before the book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" came out, the Three Kingdoms Opera had been performed for a long time, and it can also be said that many stories in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms came out of the opera, that is, the opera came first.

After the Romance of the Three Kingdoms came out, many literati and folk artists made up a lot of plays based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The reason why Cheng Xiaolou took the Three Kingdoms as the first book to serve Peking Opera is also mostly based on these reasons.

Once the Three Kingdoms book is the foundation, some dramas related to the Three Kingdoms will be taken out in the future, and it will become much smoother.

Duckweed without roots is not easy to gain a foothold after all.

When he first arrived in Dragon City, if it weren't for the situation and the coincidence, he wouldn't have taken so many plays in one go.

According to Cheng Xiaolou's original plan, he wrote a book first, and then a play.

"But it's not too late now, let's use the book Three Kingdoms as the first project of the Peking Opera Culture and Art Company just established by the sixth brother. ”

Looking at his brainchild in the past few months, Cheng Xiaolou stretched hard and stood up from the chair.

Now that everything is ready, he can finally start the plan that has been pressing on his heart.
