Chapter 481: Peking Opera Has No Future

People in small cities like to visit relatives during the New Year's holidays.

Not to mention townships.

It's just that people in big cities don't like it very much, so it seems a little lonely - this era is okay, there are a lot of colleagues and friends who can move around, but thinking about the future, thinking about the present of Japan and the United States, Xuluo feels that this kind of thing will be extinct in big cities.

In fact, Xuluo prefers the hustle and bustle and human touch of small cities.

You say that there is so much intrigue, competition with each other, etc., but in general, the feeling that I have a lot of relatives and is lively should be liked by most human beings.

After all, humans are social creatures and are suitable for living in groups rather than alone.

People who are lively and happy are always happier and more intense.

In fact, this can be interpreted in many ways.

For example, the fertility rate in large cities has been declining.

The reason why you see the population of big cities is increasing and cities are expanding, and it's because people from small cities are constantly moving into big cities, so the population is increasing.

Come back to the present.

After breakfast in the morning, Chen Wall and his wife took their daughter and uncle to a relative's house.

I left two families in the morning, and then had lunch at the third house.

In the afternoon, everyone played cards, played games, chattered, and the time passed quickly.

Although some relatives wanted to invite them to play and entertain dinner, the mother-in-law insisted on returning to her home.

Why?

It's not good to drink at noon, after all, there may be something in the afternoon.

But at this time in the evening, you drunk my uncle, how did he water my daughter's flower so that she could successfully conceive a child?

You know, my daughter is already 25 years old, this age is the best stage to conceive a child, if it is wasted, what will you do with my daughter in the future?

I don't know much about the attitude of my uncle's family, but if I think about it, a daughter-in-law who is 6 years older than my son may encounter more difficulties than I imagined.

But if you have a child, it's different.

I heard that Shuchuan likes her daughter very much, which is different from our northeast side, so it's even better, both men and women.

After having a child, my daughter's position is completely stable, and I am no longer afraid of those vixens to seduce my aunt!

So they went back to the house together, and then before dinner, Chen Xiaoxu was called to the kitchen again and cooed with his mother for a while.

Chen Xiaoyang, a little gossip expert, also found an opportunity to get in, and then ran out bored after a while.

Xuluo was drinking with his father-in-law, Chen Wall.

It is said that the Northeast people have a lot of alcohol, and Chen Wall is one of them very good.

I went out to drink a few times last year, but Xuluo couldn't drink anymore, and Chen Wall blocked the wine for his future son-in-law, and he drank nearly two catties for a total of three days.

If you drink like this on weekdays, you must be scolded.

But when he got drunk a few times, his mother-in-law not only did not scold him, but served him well, served him tea and water, handed him hot towels or something.

Northeast people don't pay attention to drinking, Beidacang, Laolongkou, Yuquan wine, Lingta liquor, and the old village chief...... Wait, the price is not expensive, and the taste is also very strong.

But in the eyes of southerners, it is a bit sweet.

Xuluo was pitted by these spirits last year, and he didn't get used to it, and he got drunk after drinking a little wine.

But the old man has drunk this kind of wine all his life, and of course he will not be afraid.

Xu Luo was embarrassed to say to others, it's good for you to have a meal, and I'll bring the wine you drink - he successively brought more than 20 boxes of Moutai and Wuliangye to the Chen family, which is almost enough to drink during the Spring Festival.

But when you say this, you are offending people.

What's wrong?

I'm so poor, I can't afford to drink even if you have a meal? Want to drink the wine you brought?

Our wine in the Northeast is so bad that you can't eat it?

Tell me, what should I do?

So even Chen Xiaoxu, who felt sorry for his man, didn't dare to say it.

Xuluo can only bite the bullet!

However, when he was at home, Xuluo usually drank Wuliangye with his father-in-law.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of strong flavor wine and sauce flavor wine, this is a matter of opinion.

Xuluo has seen the people of Qianzhou who only like and strong fragrant wine, and he has also seen the people of Shuchuan who only drink soy sauce wine.

It's just that Xuluo thinks that Wuliangye should be a little clearer, so he likes it more.

Generally speaking, two people drink half a bottle of wine at a meal, Chen Wall drinks four taels, and Xuluo drinks one tael - this is the rule of the queen mother and the eldest princess of the family, and if you violate it, you will be scolded.

Chen Wall and Xuluo are talking about the Peking Opera Troupe.

He is an actor in the Peking Opera Troupe, but now that he is a little older, he has fewer and fewer opportunities to appear, and gradually he is only playing a supporting role, and he even has less time to open his voice.

Originally, Chen Wall still had a sense of loss, but suddenly his daughter rose and became the most popular actress in China today, which made him let go of most of his ideological burden.

Now Chen Wall only thinks that his daughter can marry Xuluo as soon as possible, have two more children, and take at least one for them to take with them.

It's a pity that his daughter hasn't moved, he originally thought it was Xuluo's reluctance to get married, but later asked his wife to know that this was his daughter's own plan and was still waiting for an opportunity.

What exactly is the timing, as a man, Chen Wall didn't ask.

No matter what the outcome, he will go to support his daughter.

However, if there is a choice, Chen Wall still hopes that his daughter can marry Xuluo.

Because he has never seen a young man as talented as Xuluo, nor has he ever seen such an excellent man as Xuluo.

Even Chen Wall could feel that Xu Luo loved her more than his daughter's ex-husband, and he didn't care at all that his daughter had been married, and she was more than 6 years older than him.

When eating and drinking, Chen Wall would not say these things, so as not to annoy his future son-in-law.

They were still talking about some Peking Opera.

Xu Luo didn't know Peking Opera, but he heard a lot of it when he was a child.

Although the teenager feels that with the continuous upgrading of entertainment culture in the future, the performance form of Peking Opera may slowly fade, but he also feels that if this quintessence disappears completely, it will not be good.

Chen Wall is talking about the decline of Peking Opera: "Hey, I can't see it anywhere else, but here in Liaodong, the decline is terrible!" Ten years ago, our Ansan Peking Opera Troupe had more than 200 people, more than 100 people performed on stage, and there were 33 masterpieces, and we had to perform four times a day! Not only were the spectators full, but they were often standing around and watching!

What now? Now we only have one show a day, and sometimes we can't sell out of seats. Therefore, the leaders of the troupe can only let us put down our shelves and go to the surrounding villages and towns to perform, running three days a week, so as to ensure everyone's basic salary and benefits. ”

"That's okay!"

Xu Luo said with a smile: "As long as you can put aside your face and deeply cultivate the market below, being able to eat well is the first principle, Uncle Chen, your leadership is very good!" ”

Chen Wall nodded: "I think so too, thanks to a few of them, our salaries can be paid in full, and then the hospital reimbursement invoices of the elderly can be written off on time...... But I'm afraid it won't last long! Now we have traveled to all the villages and towns, if we go frequently, the people's purses can not bear it, a ticket costs 1 yuan! ”

"Then it doesn't have to be around Ansan...... Wouldn't we be able to go somewhere else? Xuluo suggested.

"Originally, it was possible, but now the general environment is not good, so Peking Opera troupes from all over the country have gone to the countryside." Chen Wall smiled bitterly: "So everyone has demarcated their own scope, and they can't go to other people's places casually." ”

"There's no way around it!" Xuluo shook his head and laughed.

It's not just one smart person, either.

Since you have done a good job, and I have similar conditions and situations with you, then naturally I will learn from you!

This is also understandable.

When a Peking Opera troupe is at a life-and-death juncture, their first goal is to survive.

"There's an even bigger concern." Chen Wall continued, "That is, we have no successor. ”

As soon as he said this, Xuluo nodded in understanding, "It's still a question of a way out!" If the whole industry is booming, then there is no need to look for it at all, they will come themselves. ”

In fact, the dilemma of Peking Opera mentioned by Chen Wall is also present in Sichuan Opera.

The most famous and closest to Xuluo is not the Yuzhou Sichuan Theater?

Liu Deyi, an excellent Sichuan Opera Harlequin actor, can't rely on his job to attract fans, but can only rely on acting in TV series to earn money, and repair houses and facades for Sichuan Theater, so that they can ensure their harvest in the future and have a bite to eat.

A Sichuan opera troupe is relying on mixed rent to eat, what future can it have?

The same is true for the Peking Opera Troupe.

And the Ansan Peking Opera Troupe, including the Fengtian Peking Opera Troupe, does not have Liu Deyi, so their road is bound to be more difficult.

It is normal that there is no successor to the opera.

Liu Deyi once said that the parents of today's children are willing for them to study, go to college, and have a good job, but they are not willing to let them work so hard to learn all kinds of opera knowledge and skills from an early age.

In fact, for thousands of years ago, the main source of opera actors was still orphans, or children bought by class owners.

Only these carefree children can stay in the drama troupe from an early age to learn, and only then can they have the patience and time.

Now that everyone has something to eat, and opera seems to have no future, there are naturally fewer people who come to learn.

On the contrary, if you let go of the places in the major film and television schools, then it will still be crowded.

So Chen Wall listened to Xuluo's words, and nodded again and again: "Who said it wasn't?" Alas! Let's just take one step at a time and see what they do! ”

Xuluo asked him: "Uncle Chen, are you going to handle the internal retreat in the future, or will you continue to work in the Peking Opera Troupe?" ”

Chen Xiaoyang, who listened to it for a long time, interjected: "My mother said that as long as my sister and brother-in-law have children, let my father retire immediately!" With kids! ”

Chen Wall laughed when he heard this, "Yes! As long as you have a baby, then I won't go to work! But before that, I still hope to continue to contribute to the troupe, and I don't want the Peking Opera troupe to break up while I'm still here......"

Speaking of this, Chen Wall was a little inexplicably sad.

Come to think of it.

He has been in the Peking Opera Troupe since he was young, and now he has more than 30 years of experience, and all his life and work experiences are remembered here.

Once you want to leave, you are really reluctant.

But there is no good way for Xuluo to do this, he can't give money directly to the Peking Opera Troupe, right?

People do not suffer from few, but suffer from inequality.

You gave money to the Ansan Peking Opera Troupe, but what about Beijing?

Not to mention Beijing, let's just say that in Shuchuan, there is also a special Sichuan Opera Theater.

This is the traditional art of the land of Bashu, don't you take some money to support it?

However, is such support useful?

It is always not okay to just take money and not find a real way out for them.
