Chapter 59: King Wen's Hexagram
Cross talk performances require watching the dishes to eat, watching people put off the dishes, and you have to perform for people what people like to listen to.
Sweet in the south and salty in the north, spicy in the east and sour in the west, different people have different tastes, people love to eat sweet, you give people a plate of salty, can people love to eat, you can't be distempered with this cross talk.
Just like these audiences in this theater are all fans of opera, you are right to use opera to get closer to them, if you come to a large section of throughout, like eight screens, whether it can be sounded in front of these audiences, it is difficult to say.
The mat is good, you can prepare to work, Fang Wenqi continued: "What you sang just now was all about other people's pear orchards, will you sing in our cross talk?"
He Xiangdong asked rhetorically: "Taiping lyrics?"
Fang Wenqi responded: "That's right." ”
He Xiangdong said: "What's not going to be this, it's simple, you can tell me something." ”
Fang Wenqi said: "This Taiping lyrics are divided into old tunes and new tunes, as well as solo singing and duet, let's have a duet Wenwang hexagram." ”
"No problem. ”
Fang Wenqi took out the black boiled jade from the cotton bag, He Xiangdong's jade had already been given away, and he didn't have time to make a new one, so he came to play it himself, tried a bunch of flowers slightly, and then sang on the board: "The days and months are long." ”
"There is yin and yang in the opening of the world. The last word of each sentence of the old-fashioned Taiping lyrics is a flick sound, He Xiangdong sang very well, and this charm came out all of a sudden.
Fang Wenqi sang again: "The Three Emperors and Five Emperors have been passed down." ”
He Xiangdong picked up again, and it was another beautiful voice: "The rise and fall of the eternal fisherman's words." ”
"In the past, there was a Jiang Lu Wang. ”
"King Wen of fishing by the Weishui River. ”
Long Ju pulled up Prime Minister Jiang. ”
"King Wen of Zhou visited Zhongliang for the country. ”
"I pulled eight hundred orders and eight hundred. ”
"It's all based on, King Wen's gossip is a yin and yang. He Xiangdong didn't stop, and continued to sing: "Hey, forget it, forget it, this funeral is better than marrying a daughter-in-law." ”
The audience couldn't hold back at the time and laughed, the name Wen Wang Hexagram sounds quite mysterious, but the lyrics in it are all big truths, so it is a joke in itself.
Fang Wenqi couldn't sing anymore, and asked, "You, the Wen Wang hexagram who counts all the yin and yang five elements gossip, can you calculate this thing?"
He Xiangdong still asked confidently: "Is there anything wrong? Did I miscalculate?"
Fang Wenqi gave a thumbs up at that time and said, "Ho, the singing is really reasonable." ”
He Xiangdong said proudly: "That's right, King Wen's hexagram has exhausted yin and yang, and it has not been ineffective for thousands of years." ”
Fang Wenqi said: "That's okay, continue to sing." ”
He Xiangdong raised his head again: "The one who marries a daughter-in-law is better than the one who goes out of the funeral." ”
Fang Wenqi immediately caught it: "Hey, forget it, forget it, there is an emperor in the former Qing Palace." ”
He Xiangdong continued: "Hey, forget it, forget it, this emperor is not a eunuch......"
Before he finished singing, he was stopped by Fang Wenqi, and said in astonishment: "The emperor is not a eunuch?"
He Xiangdong was still puzzled, and asked rhetorically: "Is he he?"
Fang Wenqi was choked: "That's really not, the key is that you don't rhyme, we pay attention to rhyme when we sing songs, you don't rhyme." ”
"Look at me. He Xiangdong sang again: "The emperor is not a eunuch. ”
The audience laughed, Fang Wenqi was shocked, and couldn't help but laugh: "It's also a eunuch, it's a shame that you think about it." ”
He Xiangdong said: "The key is to look at our singing voice and watch our singing voice." ”
Fang Wenqi hurriedly stopped him: "Okay, okay, don't shake the sound, what do you care?"
He Xiangdong said: "Then let's continue singing?"
Fang Wenqi sang: "Forget it, count it, the whole grain is the size of a broad bean." ”
He Xiangdong continued: "Forget it, the crops in the field belong to the sorghum growth." ”
This is right, Fang Wenqi sang again: "Forget it, forget it, that towel can't be used as a towel quilt." ”
He Xiangdong continued: "That coffin can't be used as a new bed." ”
Fang Wenqi smiled, didn't refute, and sang again: "Forget it, forget it, it's not your mother-in-law who is easy to talk." ”
He Xiangdong pointed at Fang Wenqi, and then sang: "Xiao Zhenzi can't be someone's uncle." ”
"Go. Fang Wenqi pushed He Xiangdong.
The audience laughed, and the final bottom rang, and the two bowed to the audience, and the opening cross talk was over, and the two walked backstage with the table.
The old man in the corner also stood up and went backstage.
When he walked out of the door, he saw Bai Fengshan and Lin Zhengjun waiting there, Lin Zhengjun hurriedly ran over and took the small table and put it aside.
Bai Fengshan looked at Fang Wenqi, smiled slightly, and solemnly arched his hand and said, "Boss Fang." ”
Fang Wenqi also clenched his fists and arched his hands, and said solemnly: "Boss Bai." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Lin Zhengjun, who was beside him, also breathed a sigh of relief.
He Xiangdong was not happy, jumped to his feet and said, "There is still me, and there is me." ”
Bai Fengshan also looked at He Xiangdong with a smile, and arched his hand: "Boss He." ”
He Xiangdong argued: "Don't be small, I am Ma Lianliang's second in the cross talk world." ”
This amused everyone.
Fang Wenqi smiled and patted He Xiangdong's little head, and said: "You are Ma Sanli in the Peking Opera industry, Ma Lianliang in the cross talk industry, you can cross far enough in this industry." ”
"That's it. He Xiangdong said proudly.
Bai Fengshan asked: "Just now I saw that this kid is very experienced in singing, and this figure has obviously been practiced, this is ......"
Fang Wenqi replied: "I have cultivated this child since he was a child like the Peking Opera class, so don't look at him talking about cross talk now, he can also be on stage if he changes into a costume." ”
Bai Fengshan nodded and praised: "It's quite remarkable." ”
Lin Zhengjun also ran down from the stage, and hurriedly said: "Masters, don't talk about it, this is about to start, Lao Bai should be on board." ”
Bai Fengshan nodded, hugged his fists again, and the other party Wenqi said solemnly: "Please, Boss Fang." "They couldn't get up even if they tried their best, but now they finally saw some hope in Fang Wenqi's master and apprentice.
Fang Wenqi also understood what he meant, looking at the few people who came tonight, he was not ambiguous, and he also hugged his fists and said, "I'll do my best." ”
Bai Fengshan said: "Thank you." Then he walked to the exit door and waited.
Fang Wenqi exhaled heavily, looked at the little apprentice beside him, and said, "Dongzi, are we going to rest backstage, or what?"
He Xiangdong drooled and said, "Master, didn't Manager Lin say that we should have supper, then let's go eat first, and wait while eating." ”
Fang Wenqi looked at his apprentice with disgust, and said seriously: "Child, why do you look so shameless like me." ”
He Xiangdong was amused.
Fang Wenqi patted his apprentice's head and said, "Let's go, let's eat him and shake the mountains." ”
"Haha......" The two masters and apprentices smiled and walked out.
At this time, the little old man in the tunic also came to the backstage, and he stopped Fang Wenqi, who was leaving: "Please stay, is Mr. Fang Wenqi?"
Fang Wenqi looked back, his pupils slowly dilated.
