411. Chinese ventriloquism
The group walked to the hotel together, Manager Wang led the way in front, He Xiangdong was also in front, the two walked almost side by side, but Manager Wang was half a body behind He Xiangdong. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
When he arrived at the interior of Qingyun Hotel, He Xiangdong found that the decoration here was not very distinctive, luxurious but not kitsch, and the elegance revealed an unconcealable extravagance.
He Xiangdong, a dirt bun, has never seen such a good decoration, and his eyes are a little flowery along the way, but after all, he is also an old Jianghu, and he does not show the slightest appearance of Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden in his expression.
The people in the back obviously rarely come to this kind of place, their eyes have been looking around, it is very novel, especially Xiaofeng, the child, his eyes are straight.
When waiting for the elevator, Manager Wang took out a business card from his arms, handed it to He Xiangdong with both hands, and said: "Mr. He, this is my business card, you can contact me at any time if you need anything in Shanghai." ”
"Good. He Xiangdong also politely took it with both hands, glanced at the information on the business card, and put the business card away.
The people in the back were slandering, and they were all secretly cursing Manager Wang, this old boy really regarded He Xiangdong's stunned young man as a wronged boss, and he was still looking for you?
At the scene, only the old man Wang Miwei was the most calm, he was the one who knew the inside story the most, but he didn't say anything.
Fang Wenqi can still be stable, although he also has a lot of doubts in his heart, but he knows his apprentice too well, and knows that Xiao Dongzi is not a person who can talk about pomp and circumstance.
The group got on the elevator and entered the best box in Qingyun Hotel, Qingyun Pavilion, the interior of this box is needless to say, it can only be said that it is really the best box in this hotel, and even the air exudes this elegant fragrance, which makes people relax instantly.
After a few people sat down, Manager Wang bowed slightly to a few people and said, "Please take a break, the dishes will come soon." ”
After saying that, Manager Wang went out.
Zhang Yushu was directly stunned, he originally planned to control the ordering, but they didn't give him this opportunity at all, so he left directly, what the hell is it.
He Xiangdong just smiled slightly, he was also afraid of the trouble of ordering, so he asked Manager Wang to prepare it himself very early.
Zhang Shubai looked at He Xiangdong and snorted softly, his face hung down a little, this young man is really trying to save face, is it worth spending a year's salary on a meal? Is it necessary for his own family?
There was a beautiful waitress next to her who was making tea for them, and when she brought the teapot, He Xiangdong said to her: "Okay, give it to me, you can go out and get busy." ”
The waitress bowed slightly and went out, He Xiangdong stood up with the teapot and poured tea for them one by one, very respectful and polite.
When he arrived at Zhang Shubai's place, Zhang Shubai watched He Xiangdong pour himself tea very respectfully, his stiff face gradually eased, and he was silently thinking in his heart: "After all, he is a young man, and there must be something that he can't consider when doing things, but this child's heart is still good." ”
"Big brother, you use tea. He Xiangdong handed the teacup to Zhang Shubai with both hands.
Zhang Shubai took the teacup, and finally showed a little smile on his face, which had always been serious, and he also thanked He Xiangdong.
When he arrived at Xiaofeng's side, Xiaofeng was happily playing with the Transformers model, and Manager Wang also sent others to send a lot of other toys, all of which were things that children of this age like to play with, and Manager Wang was also a personal essence.
"Xiaofeng, is it fun?" He Xiangdong asked with a smile.
"Fun. Xiaofeng nodded happily.
He Xiangdong also picked up a model, he had never seen Transformers, Transformers movies were already popular in the eighties, but they have not been introduced to China for broadcast, and by the time they were introduced, he was already past the age of watching cartoons.
But he knew that it seemed to be an iron man transformed into a car, so he took a model, put it in his hand and played with it, then covered the model from his mouth, pursed his lips slightly, and the voice came out.
"Uh......h Woo...... Well...... "The car starts."
"Beep...... Woo ...... "The car honked its horn and started.
……
Xiao Feng stopped what he was doing, turned his head to look at He Xiangdong, he looked stupid.
Zhang Shubai also glanced at He Xiangdong deeply, and then looked at the old father with a relieved face, and in the end he just lowered his head and smiled silently.
Zhang Shubai's daughter-in-law was also a little surprised, but she had also eaten and seen it, but she was not too surprised.
Zhang Yushu nodded very gratefully, it seems that Xiao Dongzi has really not put down his ventriloquist skills all these years.
Fang Wenqi was also very satisfied and nodded.
Wang Miwei smiled, and then sighed again.
"Wow, uncle, you're so amazing. Xiao Feng's eyes were full of adoration.
He Xiangdong said: "Uncle learned from your grandfather, and grandpa is amazing." ”
"Really?" Xiao Feng's bright eyes stared at Zhang Yushu.
Zhang Yushu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, I'm old, I don't have enough strength, and I had surgery a few years ago, so I can't do ventriloquism." ”
"Huh?" He Xiangdong was surprised, he didn't know anything about it.
Zhang Yushu sighed again: "Alas, if you don't use ventriloquism, you won't use it, no one likes to listen to it anyway." In the past, foreigners still wanted to use their best programs to beg for our ventriloquism, and Premier Zhou also said that this is our national treasure and cannot be passed on, but I am afraid that even Premier Zhou did not expect that there would be a day when even people in our own country would not want to listen to our national treasure. ”
Listening to Zhang Yushu's lonely words, He Xiangdong felt uncomfortable in his heart.
The same is true for other people at the dinner table, especially Wang Miwei and Fang Wenqi, who are both veteran artists who have experienced that era, and they can best understand the gap here.
How famous Chinese ventriloquist was in the world back then, it was called oriental magic by foreigners, so many Chinese opera arts, the most brilliant thing back then was ventriloquism.
When Master Sun Tai of the ventriloquist door performed the ventriloquist "Skylark" abroad, he attracted a large number of larks to hover over it, and his tone was harmonious, and he was reluctant to leave for a long time.
During the Spring Festival of 82, King Sihanouk of Cambodia visited China to celebrate his birthday in Beijing, and when Mr. Niu Yuliang of the ventriloquist door was performing a two-dog fight for them, Princess Monique and the two little white dogs brought over by her aunt actually fought directly.
At the Warsaw Acrobatics Festival that year, all countries in the world sent their best acrobats to compete, but it was the Chinese ventriloquist who won the championship in one fell swoop.
At that time, the former Soviet Union also sent a request to China, they wanted to exchange two of their country's best arts for Chinese ventriloquism, but Premier Zhou refused on the grounds that China's national treasure was not transmitted.
How brilliant Chinese ventriloquism was in the international arena, unfortunately, time has passed, and now there are no young people willing to learn ventriloquism, even Chinese themselves are not willing to listen to ventriloquism, but to learn what b-box, in fact, Chinese ventriloquism is the real strongest in the world, there is no one.
What a pity it is to protect the national treasure to the end, even the native people don't cherish and like it, and it's no wonder that Zhang Yushu is so sad. (To be continued.) )
