Master of Chinese Opera

Chapter 99
Carrying the cage and carrying the whistle, he returned to Baishu Alley, tied the wings of three pairs of pigeons with silk thread and placed them by the wall. Shen Yuelou planned to train and feed the pigeons according to the method given to him by Chai Lao.

Pigeons take off and need to be commanded. First prepare two long bamboo poles that are higher than the wall.

Red silk is hung on a bamboo pole. When the red silk is waved, it is a signal for pigeons to take off.

Then hang a green flag on a bamboo pole. When the green flag is waved, it is a sign for the pigeons to descend.

Train the two pigeons first, and then gradually add the raw pigeons to cultivate the pigeon army in the way of old and new.

Isn't it just waving the flag? It's easy.

However, after a whole afternoon of tossing, Shen Yuelou could only pick up a bamboo pole to chase the pigeons with bound wings up to the top of the wall, and then drive them down from the top of the wall.

Hey, it seems to be a little different from Chai Lao's teaching!

Is this pair of bean eyes red-green blind? Why don't they listen to my command at all.

Alas, take your time, the experience taught by others may not be suitable for me, and let me continue to explore on my own.

Training pigeons exhausted more than half of their physical strength in the afternoon, and immediately made up for it after a full meal in the evening.

Having enough food and tea, lying on the bed, Shen Yuelou couldn't help thinking about what he had gained these days.

The protagonist of "The Last Emperor" was already in the bag. Not only did he get a high salary of 500 million Chinese yuan, but he also moved into the Yanjing courtyard house that he had always longed for.

What I have to pay is only the time and energy of studying a large number of courses, as well as the shooting and publicity plan after one year.

The program of "The Rising Youth Season of National Drama" is also gradually taking shape. The task of gathering the four mentors is half completed, and the broadcast platform is also helped by director Meng Fanzhi.

The project investment has 500 million Chinese yuan of its own as a base, and if you raise some more money, you should be able to start the official production.

Director Meng also helped him get the qualification for the Youth Beijing Competition, so he just waited for the official competition next week.

Thinking about Lin Yanqiulin's promise to escort him all the way, and thinking about the next task of including the four leaders, Shen Yuelou suddenly felt a lot of pressure, and had to go to the system mall to choose some scripts for participating famous dramas up.

Fortunately, Lin Yanqiu is a well-known actress specially invited by the program group of the Qingjing Competition. Instead of participating in the previous three rounds of preliminary rounds, qualifiers, and semi-finals, he only participated in the finals and the final round.

Otherwise, my more than 20 opera prestige points may not be enough to support the four people from the preliminary round to the championship.

Well, it can't be counted like this, as long as I perform a famous opera on the stage of the Qingjing Competition, my opera prestige will definitely increase greatly, and it should be no problem to win the leader of the four lines by fighting to support the war.

For the time being, there is no rush to inquire about the situation of the "Bamboo School" painted face contestants. There is a script of "Farewell My Concubine" hanging around. When necessary, Zhu Jingzhang should come to him.

In the scandal, I just hooked up with Li Shengxuan from the Spring and Autumn Drama Club. Tomorrow, I will see how good he is and whether he is worth supporting. No, I have to find another one as soon as possible.

Wanting to understand these problems, Shen Yuelou immediately sank his consciousness into the system mall, and began to choose from a large number of scripts of famous Peking operas.

Now, I only have the scripts of the two famous dramas "Farewell My Concubine" and "Yutangchun".

The preliminaries, qualifiers, and semi-finals each have one, and "Yutangchun" can be counted as one, and there are still two.

In fact, when preparing to invite the ugly Li Shengxuan over yesterday, Shen Yuelou had already thought of a famous Peking Opera play - "Du Shiniang".

The story of Du Shiniang's anger and sinking of the treasure chest is widely circulated on the earth. It not only has a poignant and touching love story, but also has unyielding moral qualities.

For the other one, he chose the famous Cheng school drama "Suo Lin Nang".

This play was once called the number one famous Cheng school play by fans on the earth, saying that it can best express the beauty of Cheng school's voice.

The Cheng tune is different from the tune of most of Blue Star's dan roles, and it can be regarded as a new tune. If I sing with this tune, I will surely shock the world.

……

Early the next morning, before the appointed time, Lin Yanqiu and Li Shengxuan rushed to the Lou Theater Troupe located in the Tianqiao Theater.

Li Shengxuan looks about 34 to [-] years old. She wears a black gown and has a round head. Because she often wears a hat in the film, she balds her head.

With a wide square face and slender and drooping eyebrows and eyes, it doesn't look ugly, but it also gives people a gentle and elegant feeling.

As soon as she saw Shen Yuelou, who was as handsome as jade, and Lin Yanqiu, who was gentle and elegant, Li Shengxuan immediately greeted with fists together: "Hi Boss Shen, Boss Lin, I'm Li Shengxuan from the Spring and Autumn Drama Club."

"Hehe, hello Boss Li, I've heard of your name a long time ago, please come inside."

After exchanging pleasantries, Shen Yuelou and Lin Yanqiu invited Li Shengxuan into the Tianqiao Theater together.

Entering the rehearsal room, Shen Yuelou introduced Lin Yanqiu and Li Shengxuan to meet the other four actors of the play.

After taking the "Bamboo School" secret medicine to the brothers and sisters of the Lou Theater Troupe, their skills have improved a lot.

Therefore, this time, except for Lin Yanqiu and Li Shengxuan, the other roles were played by the actors of the Lou Troupe, which can be regarded as their experience.

Shen Yuelou's brother Li Yuexin will play Li Jia and Li Qianxian, the old lady bustard will be played by senior sister Sun Yuegui, Huadan's maid Meixiang will be played by senior sister Zhou Yuexiang, and Geng Changgeng will be the ugly slave girl with a pretty face.

"Hello, Boss Lin, and Boss Li."

"Hehe, hello!"

Seeing Lin Yanqiu and Li Shengxuan coming, Zhou Yuexiang and others from the Lou Theater Troupe immediately stepped forward to say hello to them.

Zhu Yueming moved two chairs from the side, and when Lin Yanqiu and Li Shengxuan took their seats, Shen Yuelou immediately showed them the script of "Du Shiniang".

"This is the script of the show, the two bosses can read it first."

"Hehe, I have long heard that Boss Shen is good at writing dramas. Today, Sheng Xuan has to learn a thing or two."

"That is, our Boss Shen has three famous plays, "Snow in June", "Kite Mistake" and "Huatian Mistake", and he is now among the famous Peking opera writers."

After receiving the script, Lin Yanqiu and Li Shengxuan slowly and carefully read it.

After reading the script, Li Shengxuan couldn't help clapping her hands and praised: "It's a good drama, it's heart-wrenching, and the ending is really refreshing and shocking."

"Yes, unyielding. Although this Du Shiniang is a firework girl, she has such a noble character. She is much better than Li Jia, who is ungrateful for profit, and Sun Fu, who is treacherous and shameless."

Hearing Lin Yanqiu's words, Li Yuexin and Li Shengxuan couldn't help touching their noses.

Although Boss Lin is not scolding himself, he always feels that it has something to do with him.

The two of them are the actors of Li Qianxian and Sun Fu in the upcoming drama.

After the actors were familiar with the script, Shen Yuelou arranged for everyone to rehearse it first.

Between rehearsals, he also received a call from He Ling.

"Boss, Xie Jin, the producer of Brilliant Films, would like to request the authorization to buy your film and television adaptation of the novel "Qiu Haitang". A salary of 560 million Chinese yuan."

Hearing He Ling's words, Shen Yuelou couldn't help but feel moved, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to cooperate, you can also, let them submit an adapted script first, and then, who is the director, what works have been filmed, and which actors are going to be invited later, These let them roughly explain.

After reading these, we will confirm cooperation intention and adaptation cost with them.

I've been too busy with things recently, and I may not have time to act in this TV series in the future. For the leading role of "Begonia", let them make another plan! "

"Well, that, boss, are we asking too much?

Generally, the copyright owner of a novel will not interfere in the adaptation of the other party's script and the selection of directors and actors, unless they specifically come to ask for our opinions. "

"Sister Ling, you can reply to them directly like this.

This cooperation is a good example. In the future, if I want to adapt my novels or Peking operas into film and television works, I must submit these things. "

"Okay, I see."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yuelou led a group of actors into the intense rehearsal in full swing.

For the next week, seven actors and scenes rehearsed new plays in the Tianqiao Theater every day, and soon this "Du Shiniang" gradually polished into shape.
