Chapter 241: Studying The Legend of the White Snake

After dinner, after Lin Mu helped Jiang's mother clean up the table, he followed Feng Xiaozhi to the study!

"Komaki, you've been very busy these days!"

Feng Xiaozhi sat on the chair, looked up at Lin Mu, and said with concern!

Master and apprentice, how can there be an unsolvable hatred!

Lin Mu said with a smile, "It's okay, this week's CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala has been confirmed, half a month later, Mei Lanfang Theater's "Red Cliff" premiere, you and Shi Niang must come!"

Feng Xiaozhi smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Of course, this performance, the entire Peking Opera industry will be famous and surnamed, and it will be a big deal, for so many years, it is the first time that three large national troupes have cooperated to perform!"

Feng Xiaozhi looked at Lin Mu, a trace of concern flashed in his eyes, and said, "These days, you kid is a little slack, don't blame the master for saying you, at your age, it is a good time to grow your ability, but don't deviate!"

When Lin Mu heard this, he said with a serious face, "Master, I know, I was a little floating before, so please be strict with me next, don't relax!"

Hearing Lin Mu's words, Feng Xiaozhi showed a smile of relief!

Although he has a full house of children and grandchildren, no one can inherit his art, which is also Feng Xiaozhi's heart disease all along!

Since meeting Lin Mu, Feng Xiaozhi feels that his artistic life is complete!

What amazed Feng Xiaozhi the most was that this kid's talent was so good, he could teach it once, and he could even draw inferences from one another, so that while he was happy to be a master, he also had a lot of troubles!

The apprentice is so powerful, the master has no teaching!

However, as Lin Mu became more and more popular, especially in this "Lingjie Little King Competition", compared with many top opera masters, he did not fall behind at all, and finally entered the top four list, and also won the titles of Four Little Susheng and Four Little Famous Dans at the same time, becoming the biggest winner of this "Lingjie Little King Competition"!

And this also made Lin Mu's mentality change dramatically!

Feng Xiaozhi, who has seen many young actors lose themselves and disappear after their careers, is very clear about the changes in Lin Mu's mentality!

Unexpectedly, Lin Mu suddenly seemed to be a different person and figured it out, which made Feng Xiaozhi feel very relieved!

"Well, very well, come, remember the twelve proverbs I taught you, you write them again!"

Lin Mu walked to the desk, set up the rice paper, and the brush in his hand was stained with ink in the inkstone, calming down!

Feng Xiaozhi stood aside, looking at Lin Mu's immobile and relaxed appearance, and couldn't help but nodded.

In Feng Xiaozhi's opinion, Lin Mu not only sings Peking Opera well, but also has a unique calligraphy, and in just two years, he has already caught up with himself!

Lin Mu closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes, his expression became serious, and the brush in his hand fell on the rice paper like a carving knife!

"Knowing shame, fear, knowing and stopping, being cautious in what you say and acting cautiously."

Twelve characters, like iron painting silver hooks, appeared on the rice paper!

Feng Xiaozhi, who was still watching quietly, burst out of a fine light in his eyes!

….

This child's words have grown again!

Words are the seedlings in the chest, and there is a saying that words are like people!

Many people feel that this sentence is biased or even heretical.

Because from ancient times to the present, many great calligraphers have been the existence of disasters for the country and the people!

The first is Cai Jing of the Northern Song Dynasty, and Cai of Su Huangmi Cai of the Song Dynasty, it is said that in the earliest days, it was Cai Jing, and later because Cai Jing's reputation was too bad, it was changed to Cai Xiang.

Whether it's true or not, Cai Jing's words are definitely the world's first-class level!

There is also a famous calligrapher named Yan Song, in the "History of the Ming Dynasty", Yan Song is listed as one of the six female cadres of the Ming Dynasty, saying that she "is the only one who is flattering, stealing power and profiting".

And Yan Song's words have been passed down to this day.

Outside the front door, "Six must live."

The words on the plaque on the door were written by Yan Song himself!

The plaque of Shanhaiguan's "the first pass in the world" is also written by Yan Song, it is said that the Qianlong Emperor also boasted of good calligraphy in later generations, after seeing this plaque, he expressed his dissatisfaction, and he also wanted to write a piece, but after writing, he twisted his face and left!

Can't compare!

There is one more person, the most famous, and that is Heshen!

Although He Shen in the TV series looks like he doesn't learn or know, the real He Shen is full of poetry and books, full of economy, especially his amazing memory and versatile!

In particular, Qianlong loved calligraphy and poetry, so in order to respond to Qianlong, He Shen worked hard in these aspects, reaching the point where he could almost be fake!

Of course, there are many notorious calligraphers in modern times, such as Yuan Shikai, Wang Jingwei, and Kang Sheng, all of whom can write amazing calligraphy!

And their conduct in the world is definitely not a good person in the hearts of the people, so why can their words be written so well, isn't this contrary to "words are like their people"!

In fact, the words are like the person, and they are not talking about the person's morals and values.

Because people of different status cannot be measured by a set of so-called morals and values!

Just like those female officials, in fact, even before they die, they may not feel that what they are doing is wrong!

is like He Shen, everything he does is to please Qianlong, as long as Qianlong wants to do something, no matter what, He Shen will do it for him!

In He Shen's view, there is no right or wrong in everything he does, as long as Qianlong is satisfied, it is right!

Therefore, a person's words cannot reflect the person's moral standards and values, but you can see the person's temperament and temperament, and even the psychological state when writing!

is like the great calligrapher Yan Zhenqing, writing "The Manuscript of the Sacrifice of Nephews", with a sense of grief and indignation, and his feelings are left on the end of the pen, "The pen choked with sadness, and he had no intention of writing blood and tears".

He was full of pain, so that when he wrote this sacrificial text, he completely lost his usual prudence, but became a classic work of calligraphy, which was passed on to future generations!

Therefore, Lin Mu wrote these twelve words just now, and every word felt like it was printed out of Lin Mu's heart, every word was fine, and between the lines, there was no hesitation or pause, all in one go.

Looking at people with words, Feng Xiaozhi was relieved!

….

"Let's make the payment!"

After seeing Lin Mu write his name, Feng Xiaozhi smiled and said, "Okay, this calligraphy, I'll send it to you at the Beijing Calligraphy Exhibition in two days!"

Lin Mu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, the Beijing calligraphy exhibition?

Feng Xiaozhi explained, "At the annual national calligraphy exhibition, as the vice president of the Calligraphy Association, I have a recommended quota to enter the semi-finals directly, so you can use this character to participate in the competition!"

Lin Mu smiled wryly, watched the master gently dry the ink, and put away the rice paper!

Okay, as long as you're happy!

……

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the third episode of "Beautiful Chinese Opera" was broadcast on time!

After the second episode of the program was broadcast, it was another word-of-mouth explosion!

Yang Guifei's fame is naturally much greater than Mu Guiying's, after all, one is a virtual character, and the other is a great beauty in history!

And the appearance of Li Ming has made the ratings of the show soar, after all, an actor like Li Ming rarely participates in this kind of variety show!

And when Mr. Mei Lanfang's past was introduced in the program, it also aroused unanimous praise from the audience!

The name Mei Lanfang, in the hearts of Chinese people, is a very special existence!

Even those who have never heard of Peking Opera and have no interest in opera have great admiration for Mei Lanfang from the bottom of their hearts!

This is a great artist, his greatness has gone beyond the scope of Peking Opera, and even in the world, has a wide range of influence!

The program of "Beautiful Chinese Opera" is novel and of high quality

, although it is not like the first season or like other shows, let these actors and singers who have no opera skills sing on stage, but let them become the audience, sit there and watch the play, become the mouthpiece of all the audience in front of the TV, and help them sort out the plots in these stories.

This form has made many audiences agree very much, after all, letting those singers and actors sing is somewhat nondescript, it is better for everyone to enjoy the performances of those top opera actors!

Before the third episode aired, everyone was talking frantically about what the story to be studied this time would be!

After all, there are too many classic stories in China, and there are countless that have been arranged into operas.

"Liang Zhu", "The Legend of the White Snake", "The Legend of the West Chamber", ......

The audience has actually touched the pulse of the program group, isn't it the love story that everyone is familiar with!

……

"Today, the story we are going to study has something to do with Suzhou and Hangzhou, guess what the story will be?"

Guo Degang sat in the middle of the table at the beginning, looking at everyone with a smile!

Suzhou and Hangzhou!

Opera!

These two terms are connected, in fact, many people already have an answer in their hearts!

Yang Chaoyue raised her hand excitedly and shouted, "It must be "The Legend of the White Snake", my God, this is my favorite story!"

Everyone also smiled and nodded, it should be "The Legend of the White Snake"!

Guo Degang nodded and said, "That's right, the story we are going to study today is "The Legend of the White Snake"!"

"The Legend of the White Snake", together with "Tianxian Pei", "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" and "Meng Jiangnu Crying on the Great Wall", as the four major Chinese folk tales, have been respected and studied by many scholars at home and abroad in ancient and modern times with their moving and tortuous storylines and distinctive and rich characters!

….

The image of "White Snake" has been expressed in "Li Huang" in "Taiping Guangji", and has been continuously improved by works such as "Qingping Shantang Script", "Warning World Words" and "Legend of the Righteous Demon"!

After being passed down from generation to generation, the story of "The Legend of the White Snake" has also been continuously put on the stage of various opera genres!

It can be said that in almost all opera genres, there is the play "The Legend of the White Snake"!

Yang Chaoyue said excitedly, "Speaking of the performance of "The Legend of the White Snake" in the opera, I don't understand, but my favorite TV series "The Legend of the New White Lady" is definitely a classic among the classics!"

Lin Mu asked curiously, "Chaoyue, this TV series shouldn't belong to your era, how can you like it so much!"

You must know that this TV series premiered in early 1993, and at that time, there was no Yang Chaoyue!

Among all the people present, except for Guo Degang, who had the opportunity to watch the premiere, everyone else's parents probably didn't know each other at that time!

Yang Chaoyue said proudly, "Who stipulates that people who are not from that era can't watch it, I still like to watch the 86 version of "Journey to the West", who makes this TV series good!"

That's right, who called "The Legend of the New White Lady" good!

That's already the best reason for that!

Lin Mu also nodded thoughtfully, looked at Guo Degang, and asked with some curiosity, "Mr. Guo, let me ask a question, you should have watched the premiere of "The Legend of the New White Lady" back then, right?"

Guo Degang nodded and said, "Well, if I'm not mistaken, it should have been broadcast in 1993, at that time, I was just 20 years old, and it should have been when I was in college!"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked, and then couldn't help laughing at the same time!

As we all know, in Deyun Club, the academic qualifications of teasing are all hard injuries.

Starting from the class owner Guo Degang, as long as he is an actor, there is basically no high diploma!

Guo Degang has been learning art since he was eight or nine years old, and he can be regarded as a child who has dropped out of school, and it is estimated that he has only been in junior high school for a year or two!

Guo Degang's son, Guo Qilin, only finished his third year of junior high school.

Guo Degang is the most proud

The disciple, Yue Longgang, has about the same education as Guo Degang!

However, there is a good saying, people can have no education, but they can't have no learning!

This sentence is suitable for Guo Degang!

Although Guo Degang is not as good as a junior high school student in terms of English, and the knowledge of physical chemistry has never been learned, when it comes to the mastery and understanding of traditional Chinese culture, as well as the truth of living in the world, even a university professor may not dare to say that he is comparable to Guo Degang!

Lin Mu also said seriously, "Yes, the people of the whole country know that you are Qinghua!"

Guo Degang nodded and said, "Just know, don't say it, there's nothing to show off!"

Everyone was amused by the conversation between Guo Degang and Lin Mu!

Lin Mu asked with a serious face,

"What I want to ask you is, when you watched this TV series, did you use a tape recorder to record the lyrics in it?"

Guo Degang also smiled when he heard this, nodded and said, "Of course, at that time, I guess most people should have done such a thing!"

….

Yang Chaoyue stood up suddenly, raised his hand and said, "That's right, my parents also recorded some tapes back then, but unfortunately, I don't know where to throw them for a long time, it's a pity!"

Yang Chaoyue felt sorry for her face, although she said that you can record this TV series as much as you want, but there is no longer the feeling of the year!

"That's right," Yang Chaoyue slapped her face, looked at Guo Degang, and asked, "Teacher Guo, I have a question that has been buried in my heart for many years, and you must explain it to me clearly today!"

This kid is talking to a tiger!

Guo Degang also said helplessly, "Okay, then you ask!"

Yang Chaoyue asked seriously, "Do you say that the singing segments sung in the play are songs or plays? For example, "

"Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, cultivating this body in the cave for thousands of years, ah-"

Although Yang Chaoyue's singing skills are average, it is obvious that she has practiced this section for a long time, and it is also interesting to sing it!

Yang Chaoyue opened her mouth, and the other two female classmates also sang along involuntarily!

It's really a melody that touches DNA!

Even the audience in front of the TV is curious, because Yang Chaoyue's problem is also a problem that has plagued many viewers for many years, especially those middle-aged people who were once obsessed with this TV series!

Guo Degang said with a smile, "This question, I have also deliberately understood it before, this belongs to the 'New Huangmei Tune,!'

"This 'New Huangmei Tune' was composed by the famous composer Mr. Zuo Hongyuan, who combines modern and classical, and uses modern synthetic instruments to play, so we sound very much like pop music, but there is also a bit of opera flavor!"

"However, when this 'new Huangmei tune' first came out, many people didn't like it, because they felt that it didn't have the classical flavor of Huangmei tune, and it didn't have much to do with Huangmei opera when it was sung!"

"In "The Legend of the New White Lady", Mr. Zuo Hongyuan used an unprecedented technique, that is, to start singing without saying a word, this style was unique in the TV series of that year, and when filming, the director was scared, for fear that this new type of audience would not be able to accept it!"

"But, fortunately, the common people liked this novel form very much, so this 'new Huangmei tune' became famous!"

After Guo Degang's explanation, everyone finally knew this question that had plagued them for nearly 30 years, and they were immediately refreshed!

And next, Guo Degang's words completely ignited the enthusiasm of the audience at the scene and in front of the TV!

Ratings skyrocketed!
