It was getting late, and the procession had not yet dispersed.

Citizens wander the streets in groups of three or five, stopping to have a bite to eat or chat with each other in the evening breeze.

Although there was no restriction on them to go to the stage to listen to the music, those who came later took the initiative to leave, and in the end only a circle of people was left outside.

And the top 5,000 seats inside can only be entered by relying on vouchers.

The soldiers' credentials were uniforms, and they sat in front of them, and no one would object.

The rest of the vouchers are issued to factories and units, as well as to individual villages, which are distributed by themselves.

People who haven't been assigned are not annoyed, anyway, after the repertory troupe has a new play, they will always go to the countryside to sing a few times.

Originally, Yan Zheng wanted to use the theater model to build a large national theater, but after thinking about it, he still chose to build a theater that could accommodate 1,500 audiences.

Anyway, from the point of view of the mass line, this kind of open-air performance is more convenient, just find a village, pick an open space to set up a stage, and you can sing a big play.

With Yan Zheng's entrance, the surrounding audience got up one after another, and Yan Zheng also waved to them.

After all the seats were seated, the stage quickly completed the lighting arrangement, and after a group of students adjusted, the kerosene lights gathered using the lens principle hit the stage from not far away, like a mirror.

Boom - everyone present was in shock, it was so bright that the whole stage seemed white in the night.

The scene has also been set up, and a storyteller is reporting the plot synopsis of "The Legend of the White Snake" and introducing the characters who will appear.

Yan Zheng listened with a smile, and next to him were Shimazu Kaori and Lan Ya, and behind him sat Ai Disciple and government officials.

He likes to listen to the play "The Legend of the White Snake" very much, just because the instructors also like to listen to this play, in addition to "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace".

And on the basis of traditional opera, he also made a re-creation of "The Legend of the White Snake" and added some familiar tunes.

can only blame the lack of spiritual civilization in this era, which will make him idle to "not do his job".

……

"Could it be that one glance in the previous life, just to see one in this life, ahh......hh

As the storyteller retreated, a light singing voice sounded, and the accompanying instruments were mostly familiar traditional instruments.

In the singing, two women dressed in costumes walked onto the stage step by step, one in Tsing Yi (Xiao Hongling) and the other in white (Yumo).

The two of them held an umbrella and walked onto the broken bridge arranged on the stage, their eyebrows were picturesque, and the dress was called a fairy.

Yan Zheng couldn't help laughing, this was very similar to the white lady in his memory.

The audience present was already immersed in this light music at this moment, as if after listening to this song, they already knew what story was being told.

What's more, this kind of singing is not only different from the Eastern Qin singing method, but also has a bit of the charm of Huangmei tune.

So at first glance, it sounds very pleasant, and the tune is extremely simple.

"Xiaoqing."

"Eh, sister......"

……

The story begins to unfold, and the dialogue between the two snake spirits explains the origin of the white snake's retribution.

When Xu Xian appeared on the stage, the person he liked also appeared, and he was gentle and elegant, and at a glance, he knew that he was a gentleman who was as gentle as jade.

Then there was the famous scene, Xu Xian sang: "Miss Rongyu, surnamed Xu Mingxian in Chinese, there is a family in Qiantang... Ahh

……

Yan Zheng couldn't help but want to applaud, this Xu Xian has singing skills, even if it is a new dialect of Dongqin, he is also sung in a correct voice.

The audience present all widened their eyes, it was too novel, not only the novelty of the story in the play, but also the form of singing that they had never seen before.

This made them, who were accustomed to watching model plays, find great freshness in an instant.

Yan Zheng listened silently, from the initial feeling funny, to the slow silence.

By the time he finished playing "Love", he was already shocked in his heart.

The atmosphere of the scene was several layers higher, and the eyes of these young soldiers seemed to be shining.

They seized every gap to applaud, which is not at all like the sadness and indignation when watching "The White-Haired Girl", but a real pleasure from the heart.

"It seems that spiritual civilization can only be guided, not framed, and a hundred flowers must bloom!" Yan Zheng thought silently in his heart.

Originally, he used the repertory troupe as a propaganda weapon, but today he sat in the audience, tasting "The Legend of the White Snake" and listening to the audience's heartfelt cheers.

Suddenly, it was realized that this was not just a matter of propaganda, but also a matter of spiritual civilization.

is like a "Legend of the White Snake", what does Fahai represent? The common people may think that it is just Fahai.

But after reading the Legend of the White Snake, they will feel that Fahai's behavior of beating mandarin ducks is wrong.

And as long as you follow this point of view and extend Fahai to feudal etiquette and religion afterwards, won't you be able to sublimate the theme?

But the premise is that the people like to watch, are willing to watch, can watch, and understand, otherwise everything is blind, and they can only become the leisure and elegance of talented literati.

The more he thought about Yan Zheng, the more excited he became, and he seemed to suddenly understand why art occupies such a high position in human history.

Why can the song "Sweet Honey" become one of the classic tones to commemorate the opening up?

It seems that "we must grasp both material and spiritual civilizations, and we should grasp them with both hands, and both hands should be firm." This is not wrong at all.

Yan Zheng also smiled and applauded, and at this time the story had been completely rolled out.

"The Legend of the White Snake" has to be sung for about two hours, that is, four hours.

The original version of Peking Opera was only more than two hours long, and after Yan Zheng's choreography, it was doubled in an instant.

The storyline is very tight, almost every section sings, and each section has a small climax.

This is very hard for actors, but fortunately, the scene is exchanged, and they can take advantage of the gap to rest.

When Xu Xian was suspicious and tested the white lady, the audience was nervous.

Lan Ya and Shimazu Kaori also pulled Yan Zheng's shoulders and looked at the stage worriedly.

At this time, the music is rushed with a little grievance, which is really just right.

Fahai's image of "feudal stubbornness" has also become three-dimensional.

The whole play also entered into a lingering sadness, when Xu Xian was taken to Jinshan Temple by Fahai to become a monk, the hearts of the audience were also violently pinched.

are all feeling worthless for the White Lady, and the dramatic conflict is also full at this moment.

In the end, the White Lady was angry and flooded the Jinshan Mountain, and washed the "feudal and decaying" Jinshan Temple with water.

She also violated the rules of heaven and invited herself to enter the Leifeng Tower.

……

After singing the song, it was full of regrets, and the audience present watched the ending without squeaking for a long time.

A few innocent soldiers were so angry that they were almost moved to cry by this snake love.

Yan Zheng sighed, and Shimazu Kaori and Lan Ya were already in tears.

Sure enough, an imperfect ending is sometimes more unpleasant.

Bang bang - he took the lead and applauded.

Soon the audience burst into warm applause, and the actors also came to the stage to thank them one by one.

Yan Zheng specially met with these literary and art workers and expressed his satisfaction with "The Legend of the White Snake".

also instructed Yumo not to change his clothes, so he came to see him in a white robe, saying that he wanted to explain his next literary and artistic work.

…………

"Your Majesty, it seems that this play is excellent, and the audience's response today is very good, even better than "The White-Haired Girl"!" Walking into the red room, Yumo's mood was very high.

Yan Zheng smiled and nodded: "I just have to make the theme more profound, I am ready to let people change the script to print and publish!" ”

"This is a good idea, if you can do this, you will definitely let more people know about "The Legend of the White Snake"."

"Not only that, but now the spiritual world of the Chinese people is too scarce, and with such a high literacy rate, they can't be allowed to read the manuscript every time. You go and discuss with the repertory troupe and the Huaxia Daily, and ask them to get a new periodical, called "New National", the content of this journal does not go to the national government, everyone is welcome to contribute, whether it is an opera adaptation, or, or a review article, or a popular science article, you can get it. ”

Yumo thought for a moment and said happily: "That's very good!" When the time comes, you only need to send the Huaxia Daily and sell the newspaper together! ”

"Well, I allow you to recruit a group of students, and you will also go to discuss with the Huaxia printing industry, and let them buy some excellent scripts from the Ming Kingdom and print them for publication. We can't do more things that the people like to see. "Yan Zheng is a serious way, since the start of the casting of lead movable type, the printing industry in Eastern Qin has become a scale, but unfortunately all the printed textbooks.

"Okay, with your support, this journal will definitely be able to run well!" Yumo waved his sleeves and said, instantly feeling a little fairy.

Yan Zheng looked at it for a while, and then changed his tone and said, "How about a slut mode now?" ”

Yumo was stunned for a moment, and only reacted after half a sound.

She blushed, in the past, it was a joke to talk about it like this, but now it seems that the other two life secretaries are a little inconvenient.

As a thin horse that was bought, it seems that it should be recommended to recommend a pillow, but after living in Dongqin for so many days, this gentleman has always respected himself and really regarded her as a person.

Yumo hesitated, and the immortal qi immediately turned into the demonic aura of the fox demon.

"Your Majesty!"

"Call me an official!"
