Xiao Guo was shocked!
The reason why opera can be preserved is because someone loves this art?
Is this too exaggerated?
If someone else said this, he would definitely spit on each other's face. But the man who spoke was Tan Lao, the famous Peking opera star in front of him and the most famous character in China. Guo Degang hesitated.
He knows too well Tan Lao's position in Beijing Opera! If the Peking Opera circle is compared to a kingdom, Mr. Tan is definitely the most orthodox and pure Prince of the kingdom!
Mr. Tan's grandfather Xin Peigong is the founder of the "Tan school" of Peking opera singing. Among the 13 Peking Opera masters in Wanqing's famous painting "Thirteen wonders of Tongguang", there is that Xin Peigong!
Therefore, the words came out of Tan Lao's mouth. Guo Degang thought that kneeling just now was worth it!
Not everyone is qualified to kneel and worship their ancestors. Fortunately, master Tan pulled himself. After that, it's a lot of talk! If someone in the Peking Opera circle dares to swear at him, he will be blocked by the other party as soon as he tells it!
Looking at the excited expression on Xiao Guo's face, old Tan said: "It was too difficult for artists to survive safely in that era of chaos. Many people thought that Cixi loved my grandfather and often rewarded him. He never punished him as recklessly as others and often died because he liked listening to my grandfather's plays. In fact, it was just a superficial phenomenon. Cixi liked listening to plays and loved my grandfather alone , because he wants to please someone! Because his wife likes to listen to my grandfather sing! "
"That's why Cixi would appreciate my grandfather. If that person didn't like listening to the opera, Peking Opera wouldn't have the same atmosphere as it is now."
Cixi?
Xiao Guo was very surprised to hear that. He had heard a lot of old masters and artists in quyi, and had read a lot of history books, including some unofficial history. But they all said that Cixi was cruel, often punishing and killing, and the means were extremely cruel. Do such people also have people who need to be nice?
Doesn't that wife and aunt just please and kneel and lick foreigners?
Tan Lao continued: "therefore, when my grandfather was alive, he made rules. However, if my surname is Tan's children and grandchildren and the descendants of Tan school, I will kneel down to a gentleman as my ancestor all my life!"
When Guo Degang heard this, he already understood that the "Sir" in Tan's words was the man he had just knelt down!
"As far as I know, in fact, not only our Tan sect, but also the quyi artists who received the favor of this gentleman in those years should worship him. Mei Qiaoling, the grandfather of Mr. Mei Lanfang, also received the favor with my grandfather. The same is true of your elders and grandparents in crosstalk and Taiping lyrics."
Guo Degang wiped the sweat from his forehead. His mood now can't be described as shock!
"Xiao Guo, I heard Tao Xing say that what you admire most is Mr. Zhou Xinfang, the founder of Beijing Opera Qi school?"
Guo Degang did not dare to be false, but respectfully and truthfully replied, "yes! Old Mr. Kirin Tong is my idol."
Tan narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "do you know that when Mr. Kirin Tong was alive, the person he admired most in his life was this gentleman!"
With that, Mr. Tan went downstairs and told his apprentice, "Tao Xing, follow me backstage. I'm going to sing Mr. Ding Jun Shan again today!"
"We can't let the poor singing skills of the younger generation pollute Mr.'s ears!"
Tao Xing, who was listening to the past of the quyi industry, was stunned at this, and then the whole person was shocked!
An incredible expression on his face!
Master Jin pen has been washing his hands for nearly ten years. He has rejected the invitation of all domestic tycoons, the invitation of the Spring Festival Gala, and even the invitation of the great hall. Today, he will be on the stage again to sing "Dingjun mountain" for that gentleman and old ancestor?
With tears in his eyes, Tao Xing closely followed his master, his pride surging in his chest.
Today, the magic Capital Peking Opera House is destined to be unusual and will be recorded in the annals of Peking Opera!
After watching the two masters and disciples leave, the little black fat man Xiao Guo, who was stunned for a while, silently took out his mobile phone and sent a letter of authority to his good partner.
"Lao Yu, come quickly! Come to the magic Capital Peking Opera House!"
Favorite smoking and drinking hot: "raising horses! What's the matter? Don't go if you have nothing!"
"Come here quickly! There's something important! Don't regret if you don't come!"
My favorite is smoking and drinking. It's hot: "I don't regret anything except drinking. What do you say first!"
"Mr. Tan will be on the stage again!"
Favorite smoking and drinking hot: "ah???"
"You 'ah???' what! Come on!"
Favorite smoking and drinking hot: "which one does the old man sing?"
: "Dingjun mountain!"
Favorite smoking and drinking hot: "lying in the slot! Wait for me! I'll be right there!"
Backstage and makeup area of Beijing Opera Theater.
When Tan walked into the backstage, the staff responsible for backstage management immediately greeted him, bowed his head and waist respectfully and said, "Hello, Tan!"
Tan nodded and continued to walk in.
The person in charge of the backstage hurriedly followed behind, and Tao Xing, the vice president who also followed behind, asked, "Tao Yuan, old Tan, is this coming to the backstage to ask you?"
Tao Xing glanced at him: "the teacher wants to sing again on the stage in person!"
"Ah?"
The person in charge of the backstage stopped there and looked silly!
After a while, the person in charge of the backstage recovered for the first time. Instead of catching up with Tan Lao and Tao Yuan, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, Mr. Li, are you still in Mordor?"
"Oh, that's great! Mr. Tan is with me. He said he would go on the stage and sing again. Ouch! You didn't break it? OK! OK!! come on! I'm the first one to call you. I won't have a ticket if I'm late!"
After this call, the person in charge of the backstage dialed a second call
The owners of these phones used to be big business figures in modu. They all have a common hobby, that is, they all love listening to the play.
Backstage makeup area.
The whole backstage is in full swing, putting on makeup and dressing up. The Peking Opera actors who are preparing for the upcoming performance are very excited to see Tan Lao coming and greet him one after another. Some young Tan opera actors call Tan Lao "Shigong".
Tao Xing, who followed behind Tan Lao, clapped his hands and said loudly, "everyone be quiet! Let me tell you something. Today, in our play, my master Tan Lao will appear on the stage in person and play the leading role. Today, we will have a rest and study backstage. Don't be nervous about other roles. Come as usual. Don't fall off the chain."
As soon as this remark came out, the whole backstage was a sensation!
"Old Tan is going on stage?"
"No? I'm going to stage with Tan Lao? My God!"
"Ah ah!! I'm not dreaming! I'll call my grandpa and tell him the good news! He likes Tan Lao's play best!"
"Remember to find someone to video then! This is something that can honor us for a lifetime!"
...
meanwhile.
At the front stage of the theater, when the theater announced the news to the audience who came to the audience in advance, the audience sounded thunderous excited cheers.
One of them, an old man who was too excited, rolled his eyes and fainted, and was sent to hospital
