Chapter 140: Obsolete
Luo Minglang took a sip of liquor, put down the cup, exhaled comfortably, and then looked at He Xiangdong and Xue Guo, and exclaimed: "It's really good that the cross talk of the two of you is true." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
He Xiangdong put down the chopsticks and said politely: "I don't dare to take this seriously, we are all young actors, and our level is average, you praise us too much." ā
Luo Minglang shook his head and said, "I didn't hold it, you guys are really amazing." To be honest, I have loved to listen to cross talk since I was a child, and the radio station used to play the cross talk of those masters, Ma Sanli, Hou Baolin, Liu Baorui, I listened to it cutely. It's just that I don't know what happened later, and I don't know if I've watched too much, or for some other reason, I now find out that cross talk is nothing funny. ā
"I don't like to watch the ones on TV, and sometimes when I'm idle, I go through the videos of those masters, and I still think they are good. This time I held a literary and artistic show, I asked a friend of mine to help me contact the actors, he told me that he found a cross talk in the art troupe, and asked me if I wanted it, I didn't think about it at the time, so I just said that I would come. ā
Luo Minglang was a little excited: "When I first met you, I saw that they were two young people, and I thought that these two half-grown children could still talk cross talk, if it weren't for the fact that people had already come, I would have wanted to drive you away." Oh, thankfully, you really surprised me, I really didn't expect you to say it so well. Gee, it's nice that I haven't heard this in years, especially when you sing it, it's amazing. ā
He Xiangdong has been smiling and listening, and when he heard Luo Minglang praising himself again, he hurriedly said: "You are too polite, we pay attention to three points of fun and seven points of praise in this line, and the quality of a cross talk is seven points in the praise there." ā
Luo Minglang immediately smiled and said to Xue Guo: "Yes, I have heard this, Xue Guo, Teacher Xue, it is really good, I feel very comfortable as a layman." ā
Xue Guo also laughed when he heard this, the flesh on his face was squeezed together, he raised his wine glass, and said, "Then what else is there to say, come, go one." ā
Luo Minglang also smiled and raised his glass: "Come, let's go." ā
The two of them drank it all, He Xiangdong was very happy to eat, he was poor and crazy, he finally ate a good meal, what about those, this character has not changed since he was a child.
Luo Minglang put down the wine glass and continued to say to He Xiangdong: "I look at your clothes, tables, or whatever, you're talking about traditional cross talk." ā
asked himself again, He Xiangdong could only put down the chopsticks again helplessly, and said: "Yes, I have always talked about traditional cross talk, including "Tethered Doll" and "Eight Major Changes", which are all traditional programs. ā
Luo Minglang said: "I haven't heard of "Tethered Doll", "Eight Major Career Changes" I remember Hou Baolin said before, it seems to be quite similar to what you said. ā
He Xiangdong said: ""Tethered Doll" has not been performed for many years, "Eight Major Career Changes" was written by our cross talk predecessor Zhong Ziliang, and later many cross talk predecessors have changed it, and Mr. Hou Baolin also said that he named it "Change of Career". ā
Luo Minglang nodded and said: "That's it, I can still see those old gentlemen saying when I was a child in the traditional cross talk, and now there are new cross talk on TV, it's strange to say, why is it rare to see traditional cross talk on TV now." ā
He Xiangdong said: "The reason is very simple, they won't. ā
Hearing this, Luo Minglang didn't move his chopsticks anymore, but frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "It makes sense not to say that traditional cross talk, after all, it's all old things, and people shouldn't like it much now, people like me who are old and grew up listening to cross talk should still listen to it a little, and other people are probably not very good at it." ā
He Xiangdong put down the chopsticks again, yes, I can't eat this meal well today, he raised his head and looked at Luo Minglang, smiled, and said: "There are not many people who like it? When Xue Guo and I were performing before, you saw the enthusiasm of the audience, and you know your employees best, are they all old people who grew up listening to cross talk?"
"This ......" Luo Minglang hesitated, yes, the reaction was so enthusiastic in front, where did no one listen to this.
He Xiangdong sighed lightly and said: "I don't blame you for having this kind of thought, this is all harmful to the cross talk world, most of those people who are performing on TV now don't know traditional cross talk, they can only say that it is outdated, no one listens to it, otherwise what should I do? So is traditional cross talk outdated? I can tell you very responsibly that it is outdated." ā
"Huh?" Luo Minglang was stunned.
Even Xue Guo, who was eating vegetables, looked up in amazement.
He Xiangdong looked at the two people who were surprised, and repeated: "Traditional cross talk is outdated." However, there is no skill in him, for example. He Xiangdong pointed at Xue Guo and said: "This is my partner Xue Guo, ho, spirit, he looks better than Andy Lau and their dog." ā
"Poof......" Luo Minglang burst out laughing all of a sudden.
Xue Guo waved his hand and said angrily: "You don't talk nonsense, where do you talk about people like that." "This is the professionalism of an excellent cross talk actor, you can't let the words fall to the ground, you see Xue Guo caught it very naturally.
He Xiangdong continued to say to Luo Minglang: "Look, are you happy, this is the skill of traditional cross talk, cross talk has been summarized by so many old gentlemen for more than 100 years, it has refined the methods that our language can amuse people, this art is very mature, traditional cross talk may be outdated, but these skills are not." Just like Boss Luo, you used to listen to the old gentleman's cross talk, and masters like Hou Baolin and Ma Sanli also said that the new cross talk, are you happy, are you still happy with the new cross talk on TV now?"
Luo Minglang was stunned, he simply felt that the current cross talk was not funny, but he didn't think about it so much, listening to this industry insider today, he seemed to understand something.
He Xiangdong continued: "The reason is very simple, those old gentlemen understand the skills of these amusing people, and now many of those people don't understand, so the effect is different. In fact, there is no difference between traditional cross talk and new cross talk. Our current traditional cross talk is in the old society, at that time it was the new cross talk, the essence of cross talk is to make the audience happy, now it is the first place in education and criticism, it is all cross talk of the evening type, which is out of essence. ā
On the one hand, this is what the mainstream requires to say, on the other hand, many of these cross talk actors have not learned skills, and some of them have only changed careers until middle age, and they haven't even learned these skills for a day, can he say it? What he says will be cola? Will the audience love to listen to it? He may say that I am amusing but poor in my usual life, and my friends are cute and joking with me, but this does not mean that you can say cross talk, these are two different things. ā
Hearing He Xiangdong's words, Luo Minglang's face was much heavier, and he let out a long breath. Xue Guo's face is also very ugly, the current cross talk industry is indeed such a situation, everyone knows it in their hearts, it's just that no one said it, this time He Xiangdong so nakedly peeled off this fig leaf, which made him, a mainstream cross talk actor, feel very uncomfortable and have a very complicated mood.
