Hearing Wang Defu say this, Mei Xiaoyu of course thought he was joking, although many famous classical dramas were created by literati, but how could a particularly new literati like Wang Defu make up any classical dramas?

Mei Xiaoyu believed that Wang Defu could be a screenwriter of a movie, but she didn't believe that he could do a good job in classical dramas, but she didn't show the doubts in her heart, but she gave Wang Defu a special face: "Then if one day I can perform the classical drama you made, I will definitely feel very honored." ”

However, what Mei Xiaoyu never expected was that Wang Defu really started to write classical dramas directly!

The classical drama told by Wang Defu is the most famous "The Legend of the West Chamber" in his world, which can be said to be the most classic story of ancient talents and beauties.

The whole play tells the story of scholar Zhang Sheng (Zhang Junrui) and Miss Xiangguo Cui Yingying, with the help of the lady matchmaker, breaking through the obstacles of Sun Feihu, Cui Mu, Zheng Heng and others, and finally becoming a family.

The play has a strong anti-feudal etiquette color, the author writes about young people's desire for love, writes about the irrepressible and legitimate and reasonable love and desire, and writes about the conflict between young people's own wishes and parents' will; It expresses the love concept of "I hope that all the affectionate people in the world have become dependents".

The whole drama has a magnificent system, and it takes five books and 20 folds to perform a complete story, which is rare in ancient miscellaneous dramas. The plot of the play is fascinating, the images are vivid and vivid, the writing is brilliant, and it is very poetic and picturesque.

Of course, there is no famous classical drama like "The Legend of the West Chamber" in this world, and of course there are similar ones, but in terms of plot tension, there is a big gap with "The Legend of the West Chamber".

Wang Defu thinks that the best thing about "The Legend of the West Chamber" is that even if it is put in the future, it is also a story with a happy ending that many audiences like, rather than some heart-wrenching tragedy, which specifically earns the tears of the audience.

In fact, "The Legend of the West Chamber" was born from "The Legend of the Yingying", compared with "The Legend of the Yingying", which simply describes the storyline of Zhang Sheng's chaotic abandonment of the Yingying, the plot of "The Legend of the West Chamber" is undoubtedly much richer, and the characters are much more three-dimensional and vivid, which is easier to win the favor of readers.

Zhang Sheng in "The Legend of Yingying" is keen on the pursuit of fame and fortune, and does not dare to rebel against feudal parents like Mrs. Cui, and even abandons Yingying from the beginning to the end, which is disgusting.

But Zhang Sheng in "The Legend of the West Chamber" has the courage to pursue love, and has a pure heart, which is both cute and touching.

Yingying's pursuit of love is even stronger, and after reciprocal affection with Zhang Sheng, she completely disregarded the eyes of the world and took the initiative to approach Zhang Sheng.

When she sent Zhang Sheng to Beijing to take the exam, she didn't mind whether Zhang Sheng could go to high school, and only hoped that he would finish the exam as soon as possible and return as soon as possible.

This view of pure love, which is not mixed with material temptation, is moving.

In addition to the male and female protagonists, the image of the matchmaker in "Cui Yingying Waiting for the Moon in the West Chamber" is also quite prominent, she was ordered by Mrs. Cui to monitor Miss's every move, but she turned out to be a good helper to help Miss pursue free love.

She is smart and clever, wise and resourceful, and she is torn between Zhang Sheng and Mrs. Cui, and she will always force the domineering Mrs. Cui speechless, saying that she is the love military advisor of Zhang Sheng and Yingying, which is not an exaggeration.

The two can finally have lovers and finally become married, and I really want to thank the matchmaker for threading the needle from it.

"The Legend of the West Chamber" was adapted by Li Rihua of the Ming Dynasty into the southern opera "The Legend of the West Chamber", and after the Qing Dynasty, various local operas such as Kunqu Opera and Peking Opera were performed, and had a profound impact on the creation of Tang Xianzu's "Peony Pavilion" and Cao Xueqin's "Dream of Red Mansions".

For example, in the twenty-third chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions", "The Legend of the West Chamber" has wonderful words and jokes, and "The Peony Pavilion" is full of glamorous words, which is directly related to "The Legend of the West Chamber".

The literati of the past dynasties are particularly favored by the "Legend of the West Chamber", and there are no less than 100 kinds of Ming and Qing engravings, which are the crown of classical dramas. There are translations in Latin, English, French, German, Russian, Italian, Japanese, etc., and their influence has spread all over the world.

"The Legend of the West Chamber" not only shines on the stage of opera, but has also been adapted into film and television dramas many times.

In this world, there are many classical dramas like "The Legend of the Yingying" that make the audience feel not very cool, but there are few "The Legend of the West Chamber" that makes the audience feel more happy to see the great consummation works, therefore, it can be expected that when Wang Defu makes a classical drama like "The Legend of the West Chamber", it can definitely cause a lot of sensation in the classical drama circle.

However, classical drama, in fact, through oral narration, it is really difficult to fully show its beauty, because there are many very poetic lyrics in classical drama, which need to be interpreted by the actor in order to have the best appeal.

Therefore, although Mei Xiaoyu listened to Wang Defu roughly tell the story of "The Legend of the West Chamber", she did not intuitively feel its movingness, maybe the comedy of the Great Perfection is like this, and it can't make people feel the depressive effect.

However, Mei Xiaoyu must admit that this Wang Defu is worthy of being a cutting-edge writer who is famous in Suzhou, and with his ability to make up stories with this mouth, she feels that the other party will definitely be able to make a name for himself on the road of writing.

Maybe this is a real genius, you don't need to work hard, you can directly rely on your talent, you can make it difficult for ordinary people to match.

Mei Xiaoyu thinks that she is also very talented in classical drama performance, but compared with Wang Defu's talent in writing, she feels that she is too far behind......

All in all, the meeting between Mei Xiaoyu and Wang Defu on this day, for Mei Xiaoyu, she felt very good, just because she felt that Wang Defu had the style of an ancient gentleman, which was very in line with her aesthetics, and she felt that she could have a gentleman's friendship with Wang Defu, which was as light as water.

Mei Xiaoyu came to thank Wang Defu this time, and of course she also brought a gift, which was an ancient book created by her deceased ancestor in the Liyuan family, which was not circulated in the market at all, and it can be said that there will be no literati who will refuse such a gift.

Of course, Wang Defu is no exception, he does not have a hobby of collecting solitary books, but he has always liked to look at works that he does not know at all, because this can greatly broaden his horizons and add more material to him.

After receiving such a gift, of course Wang Defu also wanted to return the gift, but he didn't have anything to go back, so after he simply went back, he directly got "The Legend of the West Chamber" out, and prepared to give it directly to Mei Xiaoyu next time, so that she could appreciate the beauty of real classic classical dramas.
