Dress to be a celebrity

The right to speak, hear and play things originated in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, flourished in the Northern Song Dynasty, and could be passed down to the Qing Dynasty.

Wang Anshi once said: "Those who hear rumors about things don't ask where their words come from, and they don't charge that they must be true." You can impeach if you get the news. As for whether the news is true or not, you can wait for the impeachment first and then investigate.

But Huan Ling is different from other Kodao officials. He has actually done the work of catching robbers at the grassroots level. After the "rumor", he immediately visited and investigated the martial arts and physique of the commander Pan's father and son, and inquired about his family's father and son's military exploits and resumes. , and even went to Jiaofangsi Hutong and the Three Great Houses to investigate his whereabouts.

Pretend to be a movie fan and investigate in micro-services, asking about Commander Pan's daily whereabouts and economic status.

Song Shi had done grassroots work for many years at the beginning, and he wanted to cooperate with him. He went to the washhouse and the theater to find insiders to inquire about the news, but Huan Ling refused to take him there, and said resolutely: "I am a speech officer. As an official, it is my duty to have the book; you, as a minister of the Imperial Academy, will bear the burden of state affairs in the future, you should focus on compiling books and raising hope, and you should not intervene in this matter."

His attitude was extremely firm. In order to prevent himself from being overwhelmed by Song Shi's soft-heartedness, he simply didn't go to Song's house for a few days, and asked someone to post a post to Zhao Yue, telling him to go to Song Shi's house to revise the courtyard.

Song Shi couldn't hold him back, so he had to let him do the investigation alone, and entertain guests at home.

Zhao Yueshu not only came to the door by himself, but also brought Mr. Deng, who wrote the courtyard book, to the Song family.Zhao Shusheng himself is fine, but that Mr. Deng is not a scholar. He climbed the gate of Sanyuan's house, and he couldn't even walk properly, and he stumbled a little when he spoke. The book club is so romantic.

Song Shi personally went to the court to welcome the two guests into the house, and asked the family to bring red dates, walnuts and sesame tea—red dates are the best treats for guests today, and walnuts nourish the brain and sesame seeds are what their literary and art workers need.

Song Shi ordered people to serve some Beijing-style fruit snacks, and while serving tea, he said with a smile: "I should have asked Brother Zhao to go to the mansion to discuss the matter of this court, but on the first day of the long holiday, I went to Xiya with Senior Brother Huan. While playing, I was busy showing the house to my family afterwards, so I missed Brother Zhao's visits a few times, so I'm really sorry."

With a cup of sweet hot tea in his belly, Zhao Yueshu regained the feeling of being friends with equals when Song Shi failed to win three yuan, and Deng Shusheng's nervous pale face also improved a little.

They came with the manuscripts they had written. After drinking tea and refusing to eat snacks, they went straight to the topic: "Brother Song gifted the manuscript the day before yesterday. Brother Deng Xiandi and I began to write it after visiting. , but the first fold already has a rough shape, please ask Brother Song to correct it."

The first twist is the story of two childhood sweethearts, Zhao and Li, who secretly promise to live forever, but are separated by Zhao's parents.

What Song Shi wrote was not about his own family affairs, he didn't care about face, how can he be bloody.

When the two met, they were written as the ancient campus prince and Cinderella, and when they were separated by Zhao's parents, they were Xu Xian and the white lady under the Leifeng Pagoda.At the end of the show, several people pressed Li Shaosheng not to allow him to approach Zhao's residence, and another group of people dragged Zhao Yueshu to the residence.The two tried their best to reach out to grab each other, but their fingertips were staggered in the air, and they were finally torn apart alive.

600 years later, this story is an old routine enough for people to click X when they see it. 600 years ago, when there was a shortage of good articles and almost copied historical materials, "Shuo Yue Quan Zhuan" was popular all over the world, but it still made a lot of money. tears.

Zhao Yueshu, the person involved, could not bear to feel sad every time he saw this, as if he and Li Shaosheng had been separated by his family.

Mr. Deng is an expert in writing sour essays and court books. He has broken up countless pairs of fateful mandarin ducks. He is not as emotional as Zhao Shusheng, but he also said a lot of words that admire Song Shi's routines in person, and asked him to comment on his own revisions with trepidation. Lyrics.

In the Song Dynasty, he didn't know how to fill in the lyrics, but he was able to change the lyrics, and grasp the artistry and purity of the play from an overall level-with a swipe of his pen, he forked all the parts below the neck.There are also some routine characters, Binbai, who he has heard in other dramas, and he also cuts them out as much as possible, so as not to let these things lower the artistic quality of "his masterpiece".

Zhao Yueshu and Deng Xiucai stayed up late to catch up on the lyrics for a few days, and asked him to change them three times and two times, so that only two or three points of the original remained, and the most attractive and voluptuous parts in ordinary dramas were completely deleted.

Not to mention Deng Xiucai who gets paid according to the number of words, Zhao Shusheng's heart was bleeding, holding a teacup and asking him why he deleted and edited so hard.It’s okay to make jokes, those sweet libretto of “scented skin cuddling, mandarin duck meeting, peeping at the hibiscus drunk at the beginning of the month” are the commemoration of his and Shaosheng’s true love, and people who watch operas today also like it. Guang it.

He just wants everyone in the world to sing and envy his good relationship with Shaosheng!

Song Shi was both the original author and an expert in judging dramas, how could these authors write what they wanted to write?He turned his pen upside down and pointed at the crossed-out part of the script, and reprimanded them righteously: "Since this play bears my name, it must be made into a masterpiece worthy of the title of No. These things that suppress old works and are out of public order and morals go in and lower the character of this play!"

Even if it doesn't make it into a costume drama, it still has to go to the ancient puppets. Is "Jin Ping Mei" or "Dream of Red Mansions" the most popular and the number of remakes?

Change change change!He taught the two screenwriters a lesson more domineeringly than his dad, and immediately forced them to shorten these meaningless words and speed up the plot rhythm.

Anyway, a zaju only has four acts, and the plot of his original work is enough to fill these four acts.Even if you want to inject water, you can inject water in the part where Li Shaosheng meets the thief, and give him... and add two more arias for his senior brother.

He dug out his own manuscript from the Zaju manuscript, and divided it into four acts according to the rhythm of the plot and the size of the scene, ensuring that the plot is compact, with a big climax followed by a small climax, which can always attract the audience to watch.

There is also a bit of tragedy to add depth to the play.

The part of Zhao Yueshu and Li Shaosheng from acquaintance to falling in love to being broken up by his parents has been reduced to one-third, and the latter part is added to the story of the two being separated and missing each other, and being misled by people around them, misunderstood that the other party gave up on themselves, and all thoughts were lost plot.

At this time, I was a little sad, and when Song Zhuangyuan arranged their marriage later, the two went from misunderstanding each other's betrayal, meeting and recognizing each other in the wedding hall, hurting each other, to Song Zhuangyuan (and his senior brother) helping them resolve the misunderstanding, and the two People feel more deeply...

Very good, the Dazheng version of "Deep Love and Rain" is pre-ordered.

Zhao Yueshu didn't want to have such a resentment scene with Li Shaosheng, he only wanted to resent but not hate, and felt sorry for himself.Song Shi remembered the time when he came up to him with a handkerchief and cried about how hard it was to be in love with his boyfriend, and also felt that he was not the tough guy who could put on the cool and domineering airs when he met Li Shaosheng, so he had to obey him.

A Li Shaosheng was sent home to wait for his eyes, and a Zhao Yueshu was locked in the room with tears in his eyes...

He suddenly felt that this image was very similar to a protagonist in the Pingju drama "Flower as a Match" he had seen in his previous life. Because the impression was so deep, he couldn't help calling Mr. Deng and asking him to be in Zhao Shusheng's song Add this classic libretto——

"The horizontal waves are calm and the wind waves rise, the waves roll across the Milky Way, and the ruthless stick falls from the sky, and the ruthless stick disperses the mandarin ducks."

Li Yue'e's feelings of deep boudoir resentment fit perfectly with the Zhao Shusheng in his impression!Later, he dared to copy the guy to the Yamen to snatch the marriage, and the courage to elope to Beijing with his boyfriend thousands of miles away, is also very similar to this Ms. Li who dared to privately engage in a life-long marriage with her cousin, and even put on a wedding dress on the wedding day to snatch the marriage.

Tsk tsk, if he hadn't seen Mr. Li's women's clothing with his own eyes, he would have been able to be Zhao Shusheng.

After listening to his lyrics, Deng Xiucai said: "Although the lyrics are full of sadness and swallowing, they are just a bit vulgar and out of rhythm, so they don't fit into the music, right? It's not wrong to write them in vain."

It's a pity to be a guest.This phrase in his memory sounds very nice to sing, but it has been too long since time travel, and he will definitely lose tune when he sings it again, let alone restore it to a tune that can be played.

He put down the song with some regrets, helped them set the plot and rhythm scene by scene, and then asked the most important question - he was going to tear up the aria for his brothers!

"A set of melody is sung by only one person from beginning to end. It not only tests singing skills, but also consumes physical strength and hurts the throat. Therefore, it is difficult to perform Zaju. What I mean is to introduce the advantages of southern opera to northern opera—"

For example, change the leading role play into a scene in which several people sing the lyrics separately, and give the supporting actors more roles.It is even possible to sing a piece of music by several people, and answer with lyrics, which is more compact and faster than singing the whole set by one person alone.

Deng Shusheng frowned in disbelief: "Northern operas and southern operas are distinct, how can they be sung together? The tunes and accents are all different. If you are not someone who has a deep understanding of the northern and southern rhymes, you will accidentally have out-of-the-ordinary words..."

Zhao Shusheng clapped his hands and said: "It's not like that! I knew that Brother Song's advice was always superior to others, otherwise how did "The Legend of the White-haired Fairy" come about?"

Although the words that Song Shi casually said just now were not neat enough, they straightened out his despairing mood at that time.

Wasn't it "a ruthless stick descending from thousands of miles in the sky" that beat him and Shaosheng, a good pair of mandarin ducks, who were almost separated?

After all, Song Shi has a deep friendship with him, and he understands their couple's affection best, and the change of the play is also for the sake of the story of the two of them spreading more widely.Mr. Deng is just afraid of difficulties, but he can't be afraid. Even if he has to work harder to write dramas and add more money to Mr. Deng, he must do his best.

He closed his eyes and persuaded firmly: "Mr. Deng, don't worry about it. My family is in Fujian, where Southern Opera and various palace tunes are popular there. If you speak the southern mandarin's intonation rhyme, I can quite understand it. Mr. Deng He is from the north again, and he is proficient in Beiqu, so it is not difficult for the two of us to work together to revise it."

Song Shi didn't intend to ask them to combine the two songs, but only asked them to introduce the performance form of Nanxi opera where everyone can share arias.However, Zhao Shusheng is the producer and investor. He intends to change to a higher difficulty, and there is nothing to stop him.

Song Shi also nodded, and added his opinion that many people would sing a set or even a piece of music separately.

In order to conceal his selfish desire to fight for the position, he introduced the role of the two male protagonists first and analyzed: "For example, the few words I said casually just now, in fact, a set of words that fit the mood of the two of you can be used in the drama. The stage is separated by a curtain to form two scenes. One of you is sad and self-pitying in the old house, and the other is thinking and expressing love in the orchid room. On the stage, you read or sing together sentence by sentence. Wouldn’t it be more connected with a set of lyrics?”

Although the camera cannot be turned on the stage, it can be like an indoor sitcom, where two scenes are set up on one stage, and the two interact with each other through the air, allowing the audience to switch the camera in their minds.

Zhao and Deng followed his words and imagined the situation on stage, but because they had never acted like this before, they couldn't think clearly for a while.Song Shi took a pen and paper, and drew a few strokes according to the layout of the Peking Opera stage in his memory——

It doesn't need to be too elaborate, just use different colors of cloth as table and chair covers, and arrange wax lamps, oil lamps, stationery, etc. on the table according to the rich and poor to distinguish the two scenes.

The rest is up to professional, formulaic performances.
