Chapter 35 Officially Named Talent Competition
It is true that in this era, Zhao Dezhu sold mountain goods from Northeast China to Beijing to sell them, and it was impossible to lose money, and opening a store was also a good idea.
Zhao Dezhu was the first in the village to propose to do business by himself. He didn't want Zhao Dezhu to start with a chance.
He sincerely hoped that Zhao Dezhu could also protect himself in the future and become a real big businessman.
Therefore, at the beginning, Zhang Lang began to put forward a series of standardized requirements for him, hoping that he would develop a good habit and make a decision on what he did.
The late 1980s and the entire 1990s were full of opportunities, but risks coexisted. Many scams that were not clever in later generations were fooled, but many people were deceived because they lacked investigation or were not meticulous enough.
Many people who made money by courage and policies in the 1980s were cheated and even famined in the 1990s.
"Director, I......"
"Zhao Dezhu! As a businessman, investing in business is not just a hot topic! You have to fully understand and conduct on-site investigations! Taking a train to Beijing for more than a day, only three days round trip is the same as five yuan! Why don't you go to Beijing for investigation? Let's see what kind of mountain goods people in Beijing prefer? Let's see if there are more money to make money in such mountain goods?"
"I understand, Director! I'll go to the capital now!" Zhao Dezhu stood up and bowed to Zhang Lang, turned around and left.
In a blink of an eye, three days have passed, and the teachers invited from the provincial capital have arrived. Two men and three women, five people are all famous in Liao Province. They are quite well-known and are the pillars of the Liao Provincial Art Troupe.
Yang Fengqin didn't have much trouble inviting them to come. Who made the greenhouse vegetables in Xilong Villa famous in Shencheng, Liaoning Province?
When I came to the door, I said it was from Xilong Villa and was immediately warmly welcomed.
These days, there are no commercial performances, and all artists are living a hard life. The art troupe, a public institution, is not easy.
Everyone knows that Xilong Villa is rich and can be connected with Xilong Villa, so it is also good to get some cheap vegetables.
Therefore, Yang Fengqin's trip to the provincial capital can be said to be quite smooth. When one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten, an agreement is quickly reached.
The Liao Provincial Art Troupe and the Liao Provincial Cultural Palace took out all their pillars. In their words, they often went to the countryside to perform condolences, and supporting the peasant brothers in literary and artistic development is also their job.
No matter what, the visitor was a guest, Zhang Lang warmly received them, and arranged for Yang Fengqin, Zhao Delin, who was responsible for organizing the competition, to accompany them to visit the vegetable greenhouse, pig farm, stone carving factory and winery.
After a night off, the competition officially began the next day.
In the qualifiers, the qualifications to participate are chosen, so it is relatively simple. If you want to sign up for the competition, you can sing a few sentences when you go on stage and get the recognition of three instructors, even if you pass.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about the competition held in the village. At noon, the Dahuaishu Square was filled with horse sects.
It’s not that I can’t wait to watch the competition, these stools are used by the villagers to occupy the position.
This is just like the rural market. In the 1980s, there was no market management, and no one arranged a place for the small vendors who went to the market. They used a stone to write their names and put them there. Even if they occupied the place, most of them didn't even have to write the name. Two stones were stacked as marks.
In order to facilitate everyone to hear clearly, Zhang Lang connected the microphone to the village loudspeaker so that the whole village could hear clearly what was sung on the stage.
Not only the people from the village who came to the competition, but many people also came from other villages. There were too few literary and artistic activities in this era, especially the energetic young people, who had nowhere to vent their passionate youth.
When I heard that Xilong Villa was playing competition, many young people from other villages ran to Xilong Villa after lunch.
Before the sun set, the surrounding area of Dahuaishu Square was crowded with young people watching the competition in the outside villages, as well as some small vendors who received the news, set up snack stalls under the street lights around the square.
The young people from the outside village who wanted to come and take a good place early were stunned when they saw the stools filled with small stools in the square. They were not so stupid that they thought those stools were prepared for them.
"How can this be done? The people in Xilong Villa are too much! They take up all the good positions!"
But no matter how dissatisfied, I only dare to say it, and no one dares to cause trouble at Xilong Villa.
Before the severe crackdown in 1983, there were some gangsters who had attacked Xilong Villa, but Zhang Lang's wolf guards were not vegetarians. Without exception, they were chased by the wolf guards and ran all over the mountain. In the end, they were bitten and covered in bruises. All their clothes were torn to pieces and they ran naked from Xilong Villa.
Therefore, although there were many young men and women coming, they were all standing around the Massacre with red eyes, watching the villagers of Xilong Villa slowly walk into the square and find their own Massacre to sit down.
There are those unmarried young women who secretly swear in their hearts that they will not marry unless they are Xilong Villa in this life.
Unfortunately, she has this idea. Today's Xilong Villa is not the same as before. In the past, it was said that it was difficult for a wife. There were many bachelors in their twenties and thirties. Now Xilong Villa is definitely a family with men, and hundreds of families are looking for it.
Who doesn’t want to marry her daughter to Xilong Villa to enjoy her happiness?
The sky gradually darkened, and the street lights of Xilong Villa also lit up.
The tall old locust tree is wrapped with small light bulbs, emitting orange-red light in the night, illuminating the high platform under the big locust tree.
The platform was also uniquely pressed on a circle of light bulbs, which made the platform so prominent in the night. People stood on it very conspicuously and could see clearly from a distance.
"Good evening everyone, the elders and fellow villagers of Xilong Villa!" Zhang Lang personally played the host.
"The weather is good today! The moon is bright and there is no wind. Overall, it is a good day! Our first Xilong Villa Art Competition officially kicked off on such a beautiful night!
Now I announce the official start of the qualifiers for the first Talent Competition of Xilong Villa!”
As Zhang Lang finished speaking, the audience gave him a lot of face and sensational applause.
"When we first started preparing for the talent competition, we thought of the famous art competition and the famous singing competition. We thought of a lot of names and finally decided to be the talent competition!
What is the competition in the talent competition? Everyone has already understood it, so I will repeat it here! Our talent competition is about folk art, singing, dancing, singing opera, playing erhu, telling jokes and crosstalk! As long as you are talented, you can do anything!
Someone once asked me, is it okay to learn to bark by dogs when I go up and learn to bark by donkeys?"
Zhang Lang's words caused laughter from the audience.
In front of the whole village, learn to bark by dogs and donkeys by barking?
This ordinary person really doesn't have the courage.
Zhang Lang waited for everyone to laugh for a while before continuing: "I answered only one word at that time! OK!
Chapter completed!
