After returning to the hotel room, Li Mushang did not rest, but called director Zhang Yimou.

The next time he came to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to record a program was half a month later. During this time, he could just deal with the theme song of the movie.

"Hello, I'm Zhang Yimou!"

The other party didn't rest late at night, Li Mushang went straight to the point: "Hello, Director Zhang, I'm Wuxia!"

After director Zhang Yi heard Li Mushang's self-introduction, he suddenly became energetic and laughed: "I have been looking forward to it for a long time, and you finally contacted me."

"Our crew appreciates your musical talent quite a lot."

The first cooperation intention between the two parties has been reached, and Li Mushang will go to Hengdian in person to meet and discuss in detail and sign various contracts.

The movie hasn’t been released yet, so I need to check the original movie to write the theme song.

Privacy is involved here, and the investment in the film is huge, so a non-disclosure contract must be signed.

The two agreed to meet the day after tomorrow, and Li Mushang reserved a day for himself.

Ever since he participated in "The Masked Singer", he has been particularly interested in the Kunqu opera culture in Hangzhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang.

Tomorrow, I want to go out for a walk, see the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and listen to the four major Chinese operas.

After a night's rest, Li Mushang woke up from the hotel bed in the morning.

It's been almost a month since he left the art troupe, and he still hasn't adapted to the hotel's comfortable bed. Luxury is luxury, but it's soft and unreliable.

After washing, he put on his peaked cap, picked up his backpack and put it on his back, and walked out of the room.

The buffet breakfast arranged by the hotel is very rich. I don’t eat it when I wear a Wuxia suit on weekdays.

He ate noodles, steamed buns, and porridge with great enjoyment. The hotel had a very large passenger flow, and he didn't even attract attention when there were so many people taking off his costumes.

After breakfast, I went out without contacting Brother Liu. I stopped a taxi and told him that I wanted to go to the old city of Hangzhou.

The driver nodded and started the car, then opened the conversation: "Are you here to travel?"

Li Mushang is still dressed at this time and is carrying a bag and speaks Mandarin, a typical tourist who comes to travel.

He didn't deny what the taxi driver said, and said with a smile, "I've always heard that the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful during the rainy season. This time, I happen to be able to visit it when I have time."

Spring is the rainy season in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Different from the night rain in Xichuan, here there will be light rain in the early morning or afternoon.

After the rain in the early morning, the waterways of the entire ancient city will be filled with mist, creating an intoxicating scene of misty rain.

The driver nodded: "Brother, you still did your homework. It's true that spring is the most beautiful scenery in Hangzhou all year round. Since ancient times, there has always been an old saying that the misty rain goes to the south of the Yangtze River!"

"At noon, you can still try our famous fish soup, Dongpo meat, and Pianerchuan delicacies. Don't eat vinegar fish and say it is from the West Lake. No matter how big the West Lake is, it is impossible to supply it every day. It's fake!"

The taxi driver can be said to be the person who knows a city best, and he also enthusiastically explained to Li Mushang a lot of things that need to be paid attention to after entering the ancient city, so as to avoid stepping on pitfalls.

Li Mushang also nodded to express his understanding, and thanked him again and again!
The car parked in the street outside the ancient city for a short while, paid the fare and got out of the car after expressing thanks.

A lot of tourists have gathered outside the ancient city, but this city seems to have a magical power.

After stepping into the bluestone streets, the surrounding noise completely disappears, and the overall feeling is quiet.

The moderate spring rain arrived as scheduled, and it happened to land on the bluestone slab.

Tick. Tick.

Some tourists hold up their umbrellas, while some who are sentimental don't care at all.

Li Mushang is the type who doesn't care at all, but enjoys it all over his face.

The quiet wind blew over everyone in the ancient city, the sound of running water on the small bridge, surrounded by wooden antique houses, and groups of children playing in raincoats in the light rain.

Walking along the entire small river, you can still see the old fisherman wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, rowing towards the West Lake with a boat.

This seems to be a pure world, incompatible with the hustle and bustle outside, just like the Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming.

It is no wonder that so many talents have been produced by the children of Jiangnan from ancient times to the present. This kind of life pattern of working at sunrise and resting at sunset, as well as the exquisite beauty has created a unique water town culture, which has influenced generations of people.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, Li Mushang had no choice but to stand outside a crowded antique building to take shelter from the rain, when the people in the room heard footsteps and came out.

Looking up and seeing Li Mushang, who was dressed as a tourist, his expression was a bit lost, but he still said: "It's raining heavily outside, and it won't stop for a while. Come in to shelter from the rain and I'll pour you a pot of tea."

The man also added: "No money!"

Li Mushang sighed in his heart that there are still many good people, he thanked him and followed him in.

Only then did I realize that it doesn't look big from the outside, but there is indeed a hole in the sky inside.

The very large stage is beautifully decorated, but there are only a few scattered people in the audience. The singers on the stage have already dressed up and are about to start.

Li Mushang was a little excited inside, and muttered in a low voice: "Kunqu Opera?"

The eyes of the middle-aged woman who led him in brightened: "You actually know opera. There are not many young people who like it nowadays."

Li Mushang nodded and replied with a smile on his face: "One of the four major operas in China, I have always been fascinated by it. I didn't expect to meet it by accident. Thinking about it, it is really fate."

The beautiful young woman was very happy when she heard this: "Then you have a good time, the performance will start immediately, and the tea will be brought to you later."

After sitting down, Li Mushang looked around again, and finally understood why the other party had a sense of loss in the first place.

It has obviously been renovated, but fewer and fewer people listen to opera.

Even if it doesn't cost money, many young people are reluctant to come.

This is why the other party only talked about taking shelter from the rain and not watching the show, and why they always emphasized that it is free.

He sighed helplessly, the traditional Chinese culture had declined to an unimaginable degree.

While feeling melancholy, he suddenly found someone staring at him, and when he looked up, he saw that the other person was the young man sitting in the first row.

Dressed very artistically, with black-rimmed glasses and a complete set of casual clothes in black and white, the two nodded friendly to each other.

Li Mushang felt that the other party looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he nodded.

When the performance started, the other tourists in the audience couldn't cheer up. They came here just to shelter from the rain, and they didn't worry about the performance at all.

The Kunqu opera teachers have very solid basic skills, and they are obviously baby legs that have been practiced since childhood.

Baby legs are the nouns of the opera and cross talk industries. These two industries are traditional industries in China since ancient times. If you want to be on stage, you need to train very hard since childhood.
