Chapter 523: Teahouse

Guo Dalu's two short essays have caused a lot of discussion in the whole of China, even a group of people who are not used to his ordinary behavior, at this time, they have to admire Guo Dalu's writing.

It is a miracle that an author who writes martial arts can reach this point in pure literature.

"Dalu, I'm Bai Shouning!"

In the past few days, the preparations for the Voice column have come to an end, and some personnel scheduling and cooperation with various local TV stations have been discussed, but there are some details of the problem, and the director of the TV station, Chen Bingyuan, did not dare to be careless, and deliberately went to Guo Dalu's house to ask for advice, for fear that the matter would be ruined.

When the two were discussing this issue, Bai Shouning and Bai Erye, who were in charge of the cultural industry, called Guo Dalu, "Dalu, our Beijing Repertory Theatre has been reorganized, and now, if you want to make a representative script, you promised me before that you would write a book for our troupe, is it time to start writing now? I'm not afraid of your jokes, it's not easy to do drama now, there is no good book, even if there are good actors." ”

Some time ago, because the Kyoto Repertory Theatre performed Guo Dalu's "The True Story of Ah Q" as a drama without telling the story, Guo Dalu was furious and bombarded the repertory troupe, making the entire Kyoto Repertory Theatre notorious.

But the notoriety has gone out, and it is not easy to wash it again, not to mention that the decline of the drama troupe has become a general trend at this time, and now young people like to watch movies and star performances, and few people have the patience to watch dramas.

These people watch dramas not to appreciate the content of dramas, but to pretend to others to show their tastes and elegance, they are watching for the sake of watching, there are not many real drama lovers, just like the current small theater cross talk, the audience is also pitiful.

Originally, there were few people who came to see it, but now because of Guo Dalu's incident, there are very few audiences who are willing to support the Kyoto Repertory Theatre.

So now after the reorganization, Bai Shouning's first thought is to borrow Guo Dalu's fame to drive the vitality of the entire troupe.

"The script, the script has already been written!"

After Guo Dalu heard Bai Shouning's words, he didn't hesitate, "Shall I send it to you, or will you take it yourself?"

"Written?so fast?"

Bai Shouning was taken aback, "I'll let the new head of the regiment go to you to get it now, how can I bother you to deliver it in person?"

Bai Shouning is the big man in charge of culture, and when he gave an order, few people dared to listen, and less than half an hour after the call, Shao Hongqi, the new head of the Kyoto Repertory Theater, came to Guo Dalu's house.

Shao Hongqi is an old drama actor, who played many classic drama characters back then, and later entered politics, serving as the director of the Beijing Drama Culture Office, in charge of drama work, and sometimes going to the drama theater as a teaching teacher, and has a great reputation in the drama industry.

After the original director of the repertory troupe was transferred, the above thought about it for a while and decided to let Shao Hongqi take over this mess, and I am afraid that someone else will not be able to suppress the people below.

This man has a very hard wrist, the first time he arrived, he carefully washed the entire Kyoto Repertory Troupe, but all the people who ate empty pay and had no ability were all eliminated by him, and the staff of the entire Repertory Troupe was reduced by half at once, and then he began to poach people from various theater troupes, and called several of his proud disciples to his side, and it took nearly half a year to reorganize the Kyoto Repertory Theatre.

Now after getting Bai Shouning's orders, he didn't dare to slack off, and rushed directly from the repertory troupe to Guo Dalu's house.

This man is in his fifties, very sturdy, completely different from the pot-bellied poop of his peers, and has a spirit that ordinary people do not have.

"Guo Ye, Director Bai told me, he asked me to get the script from you, I was thinking, it's not enough to just get the script. This script is a script, and the performance is a performance, if we can't understand your idea of this script, we will definitely not be able to perform well. Therefore, I would like to ask you to go to our troupe to guide us if you have time, and tell us about the characteristics and images of the characters in the script, otherwise, the characters will not be plump up at all based on speculation. ”

This person is very good at talking, but there is a faint arrogance that is difficult to find, although it is very deep, but it is still seen by Guo Dalu.

"Teacher Shao, don't call me Guo Ye, you call me so much at your age, that's my birthday!"

There is no one in the Chinese drama industry who doesn't know Shao Hongqi, and Guo Dalu has long heard of this person, "Don't say it, I really want to go to your drama troupe, this script will be given to you first, and three days later, I will go to your troupe to study." ”

Shao Hongqi said: "Okay, I'll call you Dalu!"

He asked very humbly: "Dalu, what is the name of your drama?"

Guo Dalu took out a bound book from the study, "Come and take a look!"

Shao Hongqi took it with respectful hands and looked at the big words on the cover, "Teahouse?"

Guo Dalu said with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Shao took it back to see if there was anything wrong, and asked you to advise." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! You are a writer, I am an actor, how can I be qualified to teach you?"

After he returned to the troupe with Guo Dalu's drama script, he couldn't wait to open it and read it.

He has a habit of reading books, and he usually reads them three times, the first time he reads it, he only glances at the general idea, and the second time he analyzes the ideas of the book and the characters in it, and the third time is to read it carefully, so as to completely digest the events and characters in the whole book.

But Guo Dalu gave him this script, and he was shocked when he saw it for the first time!

The background of this drama is the rise and fall of an old teahouse in Kyoto, a small teahouse for decades, and the customers who come and go in the teahouse depict the situation of the people at the bottom in the changing times, as well as the social situation before and after the Wuxu Reform to the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.

This drama is small and big, reflecting the changes of the times, there are more than a dozen characters in it, everyone has his characteristics, everyone has his profession and personality, the key is the strong Beijing film flavor revealed in the script, which is really suitable for the social environment at that time.

Shao Hongqi has been engaged in drama all his life, and knows that drama is difficult, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Huaxia drama has not been given the opportunity to innovate, not because he does not want to innovate, but he has written a lot of scripts and rehearsed on stage, all of which are not enough to be a reserved program in the troupe, and there has never been a representative program.

Although Guo Dalu is a literary geek in the industry, there are still differences between writing and writing dramas, and Shao Hongqi doesn't believe that Guo Dalu can write dramas well.

But after watching this "Teahouse", Shao Hongqi didn't come back to his senses for a long time, although he couldn't understand the characters in it at this time, but he faintly had a feeling in his heart, "Maybe since the founding of China, an immortal drama program has been born!"
