Chapter 199: Peking Opera Love (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Lin Mu said with a smile on his face, "I didn't expect that there was really a friend who watched my performance, thank you so much, since you have seen my performance, I believe you should have a certain understanding of the play "Red-Maned Horse", you might as well tell everyone about the relationship between "Red-Maned Horse" and "Wujia Poe"!" ”

The audience member stood up with the microphone and said, "Actually, I haven't listened to many plays, and that day was also the first time I went to listen to a live play, and the outside staff also sent me a flyer, which specially told the content of this play, so after I entered the theater, I didn't have so much difficulty!" ”

""Wujia Po" is actually one of the folds of "Red-Maned Horse", just like we watch a TV series, just one of the episodes, "Cai Lou Pei" and "Da Dengdian" that Mu Wangye said just now are also one of the folds!"

Hearing this audience's explanation, many people nodded their heads.

Lin Mu bowed slightly, and said, "This friend said very well, and the words are very accurate, a folded play, if you don't have a certain amount of professional knowledge, you can't say this kind of thing, indeed, "Red-Maned Fierce Horse" in our jargon, called this play, that is, a whole play, and the past scripts are written in excerpts, so, every play, also called excerpts, because the whole play is too long, and some of the scenes in the middle are relatively flat, not interesting, so, many times, the actors only sing excerpts on the stage, For example, "Red-Maned Fierce Horse", if we generally sing it, we only sing "Wujia Po" and the back "Da Dengdian", at most plus the front "Pinggui Farewell Kiln"! ”

"Because the excerpts are the core of this play, the most exciting core content, so the audience likes it, and the actors don't have to work hard, so on the current stage, there are rarely even stage plays!"

"In our Peking Opera industry, we generally believe that there is love in Peking Opera, we can't deny it, but we don't talk about love, what do we talk about, friendship, family affection, world affection, that is, the state of the world!"

"We will classify love into the world, because there is basically no so-called love in the past marriages, they are all blind marriages and dumb marriages, pay attention to the right people, in order to reproduce offspring, in order to bundle interests, for the honor and disgrace of the family, there is no love at all, and the so-called love is just a beautiful longing in the hearts of the literati and the people!"

Lin Mu's words made many people at the scene fall into contemplation!

Ninety-nine percent of the love stories that have been handed down in ancient times are made up by literati and artists, and almost none of them are true.

To use a modern phrase, the more people lack something, the more they want something!

It is because most marriages in ancient times were not because of love, so in the hearts of many people, the yearning for love is very eager.

This is also the reason why love has been enduring for a long time, and it is because of the lack of love in life!

"In fact, it is understandable that Peking Opera does not pay attention to love, starting from the first generation of Peking Opera Boss Cheng Changgeng to Mr. Tan Xinpei, they all belong to the first batch of Peking Opera people in the Peking Opera industry, that is to say, in the first 150 years or so of the development of Peking Opera, they are all old dramas with old students as the mainstay, and they are all plots of Jin Ge Iron Horse, and they are rarely mixed with the elements of love!"

"Until the Danjiao began to rise, the Danjiao represented by Mr. Mei Lanfang began to be on par with the old life, and a large number of female audiences also began to enter the theater.

"So, in this case, a large number of emotional dramas have been compiled, and they are particularly in line with the mentality of women in that era.

"Just like the fashion drama "A Wisp of Linen" choreographed by Mr. Mei Lanfang back then, it was based on the female students under the feudal etiquette of that era, and the audience below were all female students, and they became completely popular all of a sudden!"

"It is precisely because of this market demand that the four famous Dans are naturally rising, and they all have their own private dramas, Mr. Mei Lanfang's "Drunken Concubine", Mr. Cheng Yanqiu's "Suolin Bag", Mr. Shang Xiaoyun's "Shuangyang Princess", Mr. Xun Huisheng's "Red Lady"!"

"It can be said that it is the times that have changed the pattern of Peking Opera, because of the admission of female audiences, so Danjiao has become an industry that sits on an equal footing with the old life, you know, in the earliest days, Danjiao was called 'holding his stomach and singing stupidly', what does it mean, that is, the earliest Danjiao, the hand is placed on the stomach, just singing, without any expression and movement."

"And in the play "Red-Maned Horse", whether there is love between Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan or not, in fact, this is a matter of wisdom between the benevolent and the wise, of course, you can't look at the relationship between the two with modern thinking, after all, the background of this story is in the Tang Dynasty!"

"So, I also hope that the audience in front of the TV can make an argument about this matter on the show's Weibo or my Weibo, thank you for your support!"

Lin Mu picked up his mobile phone from the table next to him and said with a smile, "Before I was on Weibo, I saw some friends sending me private messages, saying that I had told some small stories and rules about Peking Opera in the activities of Beijing No. 3 Middle School before, and they were very interested. ”

As soon as he heard that Lin Mu was about to tell the story again, the audience below suddenly sat up straight with an interested expression!

"I believe everyone should have heard a saying, called there is no size on the stage, and there are rules off the stage, this sentence, Mr. Guo of Deyun Club often says, in fact, this sentence is the same in our Peking Opera industry!"

"Because our Peking Opera industry is also branched on the stage, roles, just like me, a twenty-three-year-old Peking Opera actor, but I play an old student, and Mr. Li Hongtu, who is sixty-one years old this year, he plays a small student, on the stage, we can play a father and son, I play his father, this is no size on stage, you play this industry, this role, eat this bowl of rice!"

"However, when I got backstage, I was very polite when I met Mr. Li, and I wouldn't say anything beyond the slightest, this is the rules of the audience!"

"In our Peking Opera industry, the generation only works when it comes to the backstage, thanks to my master's blessing, my generation is considered a senior in the Peking Opera industry, you know, now our Ma Pai has a fifth generation of descendants, and I, now the third generation, am very honestly afraid, but, the generation is here, if I giggle with the juniors, then it is actually the face of all the groups of my generation, so, even if I am many years younger than others, but the generation is the generation!"

Lin Mu took a sip of water and continued,

"I believe everyone should be very interested in the backstage of our Peking Opera, however, the backstage of our Peking Opera is very sacred, not anyone who wants to enter can enter, basically, the backstage of Peking Opera is not allowed to enter, the fear is that there are people who do not know how to come and break the rules of the backstage, and even affect the performance."

"The most important thing in our backstage is five boxes and one table, and the so-called five boxes are coat boxes, two suitcases, three suitcases, helmet boxes and flag boxes."

"The clothes in the coat box are all the costumes worn by literary dramas, the second suitcase is the costumes worn by martial arts, the third suitcase is filled with colorful pants, water clothes and shoes, and the helmet boxes are helmets!"

"The contents of the flag box are called 'bricking' in our jargon, which means props!"

"There are two types of flag boxes, one is the "handle box", which contains things such as knives and guns and Luan, the knives and guns are weapons, and Luan refers to the honor guard of the emperor and concubines, which is the jade sticks, gourds, palace lamps and other things that you see in the hands of those palace maids and eunuchs! ”

"There is also a type called 'flag box', which contains flags, tents, chairs and curtains during the performance."

"The last table, we already saw in the first issue, is the hair-combing table."

"These five boxes and one table have formed the most basic system in the Peking Opera industry, called the wardrobe system, in fact, it should be called the showbox system, but because most of the boxes are filled with costumes, it is called the wardrobe system!"

"The wardrobe system has a very important management significance for the backstage of Peking Opera, these boxes have special management personnel in the background, and gradually formed a professional backstage service personnel who perform their duties, we call them "boxers", these boxers are also apprenticed from a young age, through the master's oral teaching, each has mastered a skill! ”

"It is with these professional boxiers that the actors can put all their attention on the stage, before the performance, except for makeup, everything else will be done by the boxers to help you, strangle your head, wear costumes, this is all in charge of the person, you just need to perform."

As long as the audience has watched "Good Show", they will recognize Lin Mu's words very much!

At the beginning, I watched these backstage masters help an actor rush to the scene, a few minutes of effort, and a full set of costume changes, it seems very simple, but let those stars get started by themselves, and they found that it is not the case at all!

A costume, from the time it was bought, to the present, no matter how many years it has passed, there is only one crease on the costume, which shows the professionalism of the suitcase!

Lin Mu suddenly walked near the exit door, this is where the band is!

From the beginning of the show, the band teacher sat there, but Lin Mu was a talk show, and basically they didn't need it, and the things Lin Mu said were very interesting to the audience, but for them, they were all things that their ears could hear the cocoon.

Therefore, these band teachers were all sitting there with a bored look, but suddenly Lin Mu walked to their side, which really startled them!

"Thank you for your hard work, I'll start singing later!"

Lin Mu coaxed the child's expression, which made the band teachers cry and laugh one by one!

The audience in the audience was also amused by Lin Mu!

Lin Mu pointed to several teachers in the band and said, "There are some friends who don't know how to play, and occasionally when they go backstage, they see this drum and gong, and they want to go up and beat it, but this is a big taboo in our pear orchard!" ”

"First of all, these things are the guys that our band teacher eats, just like your bowl for eating, and you definitely won't want to let others play with them!"

"Secondly, in our pear orchard, as long as the gongs and drums sound, it means that the play is about to start!"

"The audience below heard the gongs and drums sounding, and they all thought that the play was about to start, but the play didn't start for half a day, which will make them feel insulted, and it is possible for the fans with a bad temper to directly smash your drama garden for you!"

"There is also a taboo about the band, which is talking about us actors, sometimes, it is inevitable that the drummer or string master has made a mistake in a certain place, and I don't fit in the beat, at this time, the most taboo thing is, turn your head and look at the band teacher, do you know what this means?"

I saw Lin Mu suddenly look at the string master sitting there, his voice suddenly raised, and said, "It means that you are wrong!" ”

Lin Mu's voice frightened several teachers of the band all trembling, looking at Lin Mu with a confused face!

Especially the string master, who looks like he wants to copy the guy!

Lin Mu also pretended to be casual, quickly moved away from this area, and arrived at a place where he thought he was safe, and then said calmly, "My behavior just now is the biggest taboo!" ”

The teachers of several bands smiled wryly, what the hell do you know!

"Because you glanced at the band teacher, this represents the meaning of scolding the street, we should also encounter such a situation in our daily work and study, you accidentally made a mistake, the most annoying thing is that someone is staring at you, right!"

Hearing Lin Mu say this, the audience nodded approvingly.

Indeed, everyone makes mistakes sometimes, and the most annoying thing is that the people around them point fingers at them.

"Some people say that on the stage of Peking Opera, the actors are red flowers and the band is green leaves, this statement is completely wrong, and the importance of the band is definitely not below the actors."

"Therefore, any actor should treat the band teacher with respect, because on the stage, if the band teacher does not cooperate, even if you are Mr. Ma Lianliang, you will not be able to do it!"

"So, when the other party accidentally makes a mistake, you look at the other party, which is equivalent to you in front of everyone, so that people can't get off the stage, but you have to know that you are the protagonist in this scene, what are the band teachers afraid of!"

"Back then, when a big horn was performing, a small mistake by the string master, he turned his head to look at the string master, in fact, it was subconscious, but it didn't matter what he looked at, the string master was so temperamental, he directly put down the Jinghu in his hand, took out a cigarette, lit it, sat there with Erlang's legs crossed, and directly looked at the horn dumbfounded!"

Hearing Lin Mu's words, a picture suddenly appeared in the minds of the audience!

A big horn stood on the stage awkwardly, and the band teacher next to him sat there with Erlang's legs crossed and smoking, and the whole theater exploded!

Unfortunately, it can only be this corner, who will blame the band teacher!

Because I paid for the ticket to see you, not the band teacher!

Any stage accident must be borne by you!
