Chapter 758: Abstract, Huh?

The song "The Injustice of Dou E" ended, and the audience's experience was surprisingly good.

In the past Peking Opera performances, the more traditional ones were distributed to everyone with scripts for them to watch and listen to, while the more fashionable ones also used subtitles, which were the kind of rustic LED screens that could only display fonts, which was okay.

Chen Jiaban’s big-screen barrage was refreshing to everyone, and they started to forward and share it one after another.

"The experience was great. I even know what "The Injustice of Dou E" is about."

"Highly recommended, this thing is so beautiful."

Judging from online reviews, people are very receptive to this novel form of barrage.

Everyone said that they finally understood it. Only after they understood it did they realize that Peking Opera is so interesting.

The biggest problem facing Peking Opera was solved in this seemingly absurd way.

However, for today’s performance, subtitles are only the first step. Subtitles can only solve the problem of people not being able to understand.

But understanding it doesn’t mean everyone will like it. These are two different things.

Chen Xingchang received a burst of applause, and then Li Qingyi came on stage.

"This play is called "Red Ling"." As soon as Li Qingyi finished speaking, the audience started talking.

"Is it the "Chi Ling" sung by Lin Wanqing?"

"I just said that this song got me into drama."

During the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Rabbit, Lin Wanqing's song "Red Ling" on stage was still fresh in the memory of countless audiences.

Many people call the Year of the Rabbit Spring Festival Gala "the first year of the Spring Festival Gala's revival", not only because of the rise in ratings that year, but also because of its style.

The ratings of the Spring Festival Gala have been ups and downs in recent years. It’s hard to explain. The biggest change is innovation.

Yu Tianlei boldly recruited newcomers and let the entertainment industry know that one can attend the Spring Festival Gala based on their ability. This undoubtedly gave the stars a shot in the arm.

On the other hand, it is the boldness in program review, the most typical one is "Chi Ling".

That day everyone discovered that the image of the invader could also be used, and it turned out that the scale of the review could be so large.

This also allowed the entertainment industry to follow "Chi Ling" across the river and create many works that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Li Qingyi shook his head on the stage, "Although it is the song "Chi Ling", it is not exactly the same. This is an adapted new play."

As he said that, he bowed towards Xu Nuo and said, "Thank you, sir."

Xu Nuo stood up and returned the salute.

Adapting "Chi Ling" into a play is the best choice to open up the Peking Opera market. The effect of the Spring Festival Gala stage is not a play, but mostly serves the songs. This time, the Chen Jiaban gathered everyone's efforts and added the promised Help create a new play.

The audience was also very interested in the new play and watched it carefully.

At the end of the Republic of China, foreign enemies invaded and captured the county. The invaders asked famous soldiers to sing opera...

The story is still the same, except that when the invaders came on stage, the audience applauded.

Wearing white makeup and wearing the military uniform of the Bagas, this is the first time everyone has seen such an outfit in Peking Opera.

White symbolizes the villain, representing treachery, stupidity and ugliness, which everyone is familiar with.

But this was the first time for everyone to see the clown wearing the Baga military uniform.

The feeling of novelty suddenly came over, and the audience took pictures one after another.

Everyone knows that in Peking Opera, a foreigner appears in a clown, but this is the first time that a foreigner has appeared in a clown.

Some people find it interesting and cheerful, most of them are young people.

Some people walked away saying, "This is blaspheming the classics!"

"You are the sinners of Peking Opera and the sinners of history!"

"This is unreasonable! It's simply ridiculous!"

"Chen Xingchang, do you know what you are doing!"

"The play is not nonsense! The adaptation is not nonsense!"

A few old people in the front row suddenly stood up and left the theater angrily.

This is normal. Any new thing will face such problems. The conservatives reject innovation, while the radicals warmly welcome it.

Everything that existed before I was born was taken for granted. This is called tradition.

Everything that appears after my middle age is rebellious and anti-human.

Old men cannot accept such innovation because it makes them feel that they are being abandoned by the times.

No one likes to admit that they are backward, so they are frightened and then angry.

On the stage, Li Qingyi was unmoved at all. This road was already difficult, and he could only survive by putting himself to death.

Young people were talking a lot, curious about this novel thing.

"Red Ling" is still going on. Li Qingyi is singing a patriotic drama. This scene has a strong sense of contrast.

The actors sang patriotic plays, but they were singing to the invaders. The invaders with clown faces were laughing and joking in an awkward manner.

Ding dong, a big ocean was thrown at Li Qingyi's feet.

The audience was all angry, and the anger in their chests was about to burst out.

Li Qingyi sang a play within a play, and other people began to appear. They were stacking firewood.

The invaders laughed loudly, and Li Qingyi changed the opera: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

The audience applauded for the wonderful drama.

"The water sleeves rise and fall when the play breaks,

Singing joy and sorrow has nothing to do with me. "

Li Qingyi started singing "Chi Ling", and many people came here just for this song.

"In troubled times, duckweed endures to watch the flames of war burning mountains and rivers,

I am humble and dare not forget my country, even if no one knows me,

People in the audience can't see the old color when they walk by.

People on the stage sang a heartbreaking farewell song. "

Opera tunes, opera tunes again, opera tunes that are completely integrated into the script, making the audience intoxicated.

"Love is hard to write, he must sing with blood,

When the curtain rises and falls, who is the guest."

The flames on the stage began to burn, and the invaders burst into ferocity and began to kill the masses.

"Deep love regrets,

Looking back, all are illusions."

Li Qingyi didn't care and just sang on the stage.

Some audiences noticed that the lyrics were a little different. The original version of "Chi Ling" did not have these words, but when Li Qingyi sang, everyone thought it was well changed.

This version is not the original version sung by hita, but the adaptation version of the big devil Tan Jing. On the original lyrics, a few opera tunes were added before, after, and in the middle.

For example, the beginning "Love is deep and deep without knowing where it comes from", and the middle "Deep love regrets, looking back, all are illusions".

"I have asked Qing Huang and sang the rise and fall of the country.

How can I think about whether I am ruthless or affectionate?

How can I think about whether I am ruthless or affectionate?

I look at Yanyun and Bianliang and dream for a while."

The last sentence makes "I dare not forget my country even though I am in a low position" concrete.

Li Qingyi's singing has a sense of desolation of family breakdown and death. His control of emotions makes it easy for the audience to be involved.

Thunderous applause rang out and the audience cheered loudly.

Even many white-haired old men were applauding.

From the reaction on the scene, this play was a success. The elderly were applauding and the young were even more excited.

The reason why opera songs can be more popular than dramas is that they are understandable and beautiful. Now they have heard the adapted "Chi Ling" in a formal drama, how can they not be excited?

The applause did not subside for a long time, and the audience applauded desperately.

Backstage, Chen Xingchang watched all this and suddenly a tear fell.

He had experienced such applause countless times before, but he still couldn't help crying with excitement.

In the past, no matter how enthusiastic the applause was, it couldn't make him so excited.

This time was different, which meant that their reform had succeeded a small step.

In the backstage, everyone was in tears and excited.

Applause was the best reward for them.

The thunderous applause lasted for a full minute, and the audience didn't stop until they were tired.

Chen Xingchang wiped his tears and said, "Let's go. Nuoyan and Lin Wanqing played a big role in the success of "Chi Ling". With their fame, it would be a big problem if they didn't succeed."

"Yes, Master."

Everyone knew that the first new play they adapted was "Chi Ling" in order to open up the situation.

"Next, it's time to test us."

Chen Xingchang added a lively subtitle screen, which was criticized by the old stubborn people, who thought he was betraying the ancestral precepts.

But they only scolded a few times. When the actors in Ba Ga clothes came on stage, the old stubborn people were furious and left.

If the occasion wasn't wrong, these old guys would have rushed up to fight them.

In Peking Opera, or even in the history of drama, there has never been such a costume. This has gone beyond the scope of Peking Opera, so the conservatives can't accept it.

But Chen Xingchang knew that this was just the beginning. "Chi Ling" was not much different from the song itself. They just expanded the song and stage effects into a complete play. Even the conservatives couldn't stand it and got furious.

And the next performance was truly heretical.

Chen Xingchang was somewhat glad that these old guys left in anger, otherwise he was worried that they would faint here.

They are all old people. If they get angry, there is no need to perform.

In the audience, Zhao Lei frowned and said to Xu Nuo, "What crooked idea did you come up with?"

"What crooked idea? This is called art!"

Zhao Lei laughed, "What art? The old man almost hit you just now."

Xu Nuo touched his chin, "Actually, I should have stopped them just now. At least I should have watched the next play before leaving."

The best way to deal with stubborn people is to completely penetrate their armor. What can be more likely to make them collapse than the next play?

Zhao Lei glanced at him, "Your smile is full of evil. There will be a big play next, right?"

"Wait and see."

On the stage, Chen Xingchang came on stage again and announced the name of the next play.

"Three Courts Trial————"

When he said that the three courts were trying, the audience reacted calmly. Even if they had not eaten pork, they had seen pigs run.

It's just the three courts trial. Everyone is familiar with it. This play is an old classic.

Nothing special, it's just traditional Peking Opera.

Chen Xingchang took a deep breath and said the last three words: "Galileo!"

Audience: ???

Galileo? What does that mean?

What's wrong? Is it a mix-up?

The audience looked at Chen Xingchang in bewilderment.

Chen Xingchang repeated it again, "The Trial of Galileo!"

Audience: ...
