Chapter 372 The drama begins(1/3)
Xue Shaoheng never took his eyes away from Toy Spirit.
Today's play is "Toy Store Robbery 3". There are a lot of toy spirits appearing. The protagonist is the most agile cavalry and the fastest racing car. There are two male protagonists but no female protagonist. The princess is basically a soy sauce.
Every toy in the show plays a true character, and it can be regarded as one of the toy dramas with the most outstanding acting skills.
Jiang Qi tried to figure out from Xue Shaoheng's expression which toy spirit he liked.
Unfortunately, although Xue Shaoheng is a cheerful person who cannot control his emotions at all. But due to the difference in his expression, even if he writes everything on his face, it is difficult for you to read from his face what he is really thinking.
What.
The play has reached its final scene.
"Bi, pen." Xue Shaoheng took Xue Hua's hand and whispered.
Xue Hua understood instantly: "Paper and pen? Shao Heng, do you want to draw?"
Xue Shaoheng nodded repeatedly.
"I'm going to arrange a room. Do you need a pen or paper?" Jiang Qi took out his mobile phone and prepared to make a call.
"We brought a full set of painting props, which are in the room of that train hotel. We can just go there and paint," Xue Hua said.
Jiang Qi patted his head and said that he had made a mistake. Xue Shaoheng came here this time to finalize the comics. How could he not bring drawing tools?
"Then I'll take you over and go through the back door. The hotel's private room is a little small, so why don't you go directly to my room to draw. My room is a suite with a desk." Jiang Qi suggested.
Xue Hua thought it was okay and looked at Xue Shaoheng. Xue Shaoheng didn't have much reaction to Jiang Qi's words, so Xue Hua knew that he agreed.
Xue Shaoheng didn't pay too much attention when he was painting. There were no strange rules that he had to be alone when painting, had to be quiet, and couldn't have anyone around him.
According to Xue Hua, Xue Shaoheng didn't even have a dedicated studio. No matter what price his paintings were sold for, they were basically born in the living room of his home.
Xue Shaoheng usually likes to move a small bench and sit in the living room to paint. While he is painting, Xue Hua can even watch TV, clean, make phone calls, chop meat fillings, and make dumplings in the living room.
Xue Shaoheng's painting props are also amazing.
Because Jiang Bing studied art, Jiang Qi was relatively clear about the painting props that a painter should have. When Jiang Bing was in high school, every time he came back from the studio, he felt as if he had just come out of the coal mine. He knew that she was
I went to paint, but for those who didn’t know better, I thought I had just returned from the war.
In Jiang Qi's impression, painting, especially for someone like Xue Shaoheng who can be called a painter, requires at least a drawing board.
However, Xue Shaoheng did not.
When he was in Jiang Qi Elementary School, he took a pencil in his hand to deal with the same type of drawing book that his art teacher bought that he never drew.
I didn't even take the eraser.
Jiang Qi:???
If he remembered correctly, this kind of drawing book sold for 5 yuan at the stationery store in front of the school when he was in elementary school. Even if prices have skyrocketed over the years, the price should not exceed 15 yuan.
An artist who has held art exhibitions, won small prizes, and can sell at least 5 figures for any painting should paint like this???
"Shao Heng has been drawing very casually since he was a child." Xue Hua was afraid that Jiang Qi would misunderstand, so she quickly explained, "It's his favorite style of drawing book. The first drawing book I bought him looked like this. Shao Heng usually looks like this.
Whenever there is something he wants to draw, he will first draw it in this drawing book. As for whether he will turn it into a finished painting, it all depends on his mood."
Jiang Qi said that this painting method is quite strange, at least Jiang Bing has never done this before.
Is this why Jiang Bing can only sell a painting for tens to hundreds, and Xue Shaoheng can sell a painting for tens to hundreds of thousands?
Jiang Qi felt that he had to find an opportunity to talk to Jiang Bing and let her learn from it.
Anyway, Jiang Bing is more leisurely than him every day. All the affairs of the B&B and the agency are left to the employees below (the main B&B and the agency have nothing to do). The shops in the amusement park are managed by the employees of the amusement park. Jiang Bing
Now there is no financial pressure and I have become a truly rich second generation, and I can live the happy life I had before Chengzi——
Play mahjong every day.
On the contrary, Chengzi is very happy as an ordinary employee in the operation department of the amusement park, earning more than 3,000 yuan a month. Because she is a half-connected household, the boss will not assign her too heavy work. When she is free, she goes to Taiping Town.
I make a guest appearance as an NPC, go to the amusement park to play games in my free time, stay at home, and drive to and from get off work every day, and my daily routine is regular.
It is said that Chengzi’s parents now praise Chengzi for finding a good job in an amusement park with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan.
"Miss Xue, let's go sit over there on the sofa." Jiang Qi suggested, leading Xue Hua to the sofa piled with toys.
Because of the arrival of Xue Hua and Xue Shaoheng, the toy spirits in the box could not move freely and could only pretend to be normal toys and stay quietly everywhere.
Jiang Qi arranged the toys on the sofa, found a place where someone could sit, and motioned to Xue Hua to sit down and take a rest.
"Boss Jiang, you seem to really like toys." Xue Hua looked at the various toys on the ground, "I thought I was wrong when I came in just now. In the toy theater just now, the toys on stage were also all different.
Is this yours?"
"That's right." Jiang Qi nodded, "These are mechanical toys that I customized from a specialized manufacturer. They were originally used to create books. Oh, let me introduce you. I used to open a script-selling shop. Now I focus on business.
At the amusement park, I moved all the toys from the original store to my room in the amusement park hotel."
Xue Hua didn't understand script killing at all, and had never even heard of it. She nodded in understanding. Jiang Qi felt that Xue Hua probably regarded script killing as some kind of stage play.
"Miss Xue used to like to listen to operas?" Jiang Qi decisively changed the subject.
After talking about what she could, Xue Hua sat up a little straighter, put her hands on her knees with her hands clasped in a somewhat restrained manner, and her sitting posture became much more dignified.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I listen to it occasionally."
"What kind of opera do you like to listen to?" Jiang Qi now claims to be a half-opera lover, so he can talk about it somewhat.
"Listen to whatever you want." Xue Hua is also a dabbler and doesn't want to talk about too professional topics. "I'm from Guangdong Province. When I was a child, there would be opera troupes in the village during the New Year. At that time, all I listened to was Cantonese opera."
"When I got older, I went out to work and didn't have time to listen to plays. I took a break for nearly 20 years. Shao Heng was diagnosed with savant syndrome 9 years ago. In order to facilitate his treatment, I took him to Peking and waited for him to start painting.
After painting and gaining a certain reputation, our financial situation became a little better."
"There are many theaters in Peiping. When I have nothing to do, I occasionally go to the theater to buy tickets and watch a play. I don't choose the type of play. To be honest, I don't know much about it. I just watch the fun."
Jiang Qi nodded, Xue Hua was what Feng Ling said was the most common and largest ordinary audience in her era.
I don’t know much about opera, but I don’t know it at all. I just don’t have any other hobbies, and the tickets for Caotai Troupe’s theater are cheap. Occasionally, if I have a few spare dollars, I will go and watch the show.
This kind of audience reaction is the most honest.
It’s because they have only half-understanding, so they can best tell the quality of the actors and the play. A good play is a good play, a bad play is a bad play. They may not be able to tell what is good about the play, how subtle the actors are in their acting, or how smart their voices are.
It's tactful and appropriate, but they can tell the difference between good and bad.
Wang Xinghua doesn't understand this kind of audience. After all, the Wang Family Troupe is a prestigious theater troupe in the provincial capital. Just looking at the size of the theater, you can tell that Wang's troupe is doing well. The Wang Family Troupe's theater tickets are expensive, but how many theater fans are there to watch the theater?
They all have some financial strength, and they all have requirements for acting.
Feng Lingze understands it very well. Her starting point is low enough, and her achievements are high enough. In Feng Ling's words, her red corner is the audience who buys the theater tickets one by one with cheap two cents each.
of.
Hiring third-rate literati to write short essays and praise in newspapers is not the real skill, but letting theatergoers spend real money to buy tickets and sell out the theater is the real skill.
At this time, Wang Xinghua had something to say. It is indeed useless to hire a third-rate literati to write essays and praise, but it is very useful to hire a third-rate literati to fight with bad words. The latter may not affect the theater fans, but it can affect the opera singers.
mentality.
When it comes to doing this kind of thing, Wang Jiaban, who is the cancer in their industry, is professional.
"What do you think of this afternoon's play?" Jiang Qi looked at Xue Hua with bright eyes.
There are really too few viewers like Xue Hua these days.
The people Jiang Qi came into contact with were either rare opera fans like Grandpa Liu Lan and Grandma Qi Si. Or they were people like Liu Lan who knew opera, but basically didn’t watch it or liked it. They knew Peking Opera, Kun Opera, and Huangmei Opera, but they didn’t know it at all.
Don't know the difference between these two.
Before Liu Lan met Feng Ling, she always thought "The Female Consort" was a Peking Opera.
In fact, Liu Lan is pretty good. At least she knows that "The Match" is a Huangmei opera. After all, she watched a part of it at her grandpa's house during the Chinese New Year.
Qin Can always thought that "The Match" was also a Peking Opera. She knew that the title of "The Match" was because she watched the TV series when she was a child and heard her family say that it was adapted from an opera.
The last time we talked about this topic, Liu Lan complained directly that Qin Can didn't watch TV series seriously when he was a child. Obviously there are TV series about "The Female Consort" and "Meng Lijun", so why does Qin Can remember "The Match".
Then the two started arguing.
Qin Can thinks it's because the dramas "The Consort" and "Meng Lijun" were not filmed well and not popular enough, so she didn't remember them after watching them when she was a child.
Liu Lan said that in "Meng Lijun" yyds, Qin Can only remembers the love between gods and mortals, and the two sisters almost turned against each other because of the TV series.
By the end of the quarrel, those who broke up the fight had forgotten that the two of them were actually talking about opera in the first place.
The person who broke up the fight was Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi felt that there was something wrong with the point of the quarrel between these two people.
Obviously "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" has also been made into a TV series and is very famous. It is also a classic drama of Huangmei Opera. Like "The Fairy Match", it is also a story about gods and mortals falling in love. Why does "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" not deserve to have a name?
"This afternoon?" Xue Hua thought for a moment. Because she only had a primary school education, she couldn't think of too many adjectives.
"Very good." Xue Hua held it in for a long time and could only come up with these three popular adjectives.
"It's really good. I haven't seen this play before, and it's quite interesting." Xue Hua was afraid that Jiang Qi would think she was perfunctory, so she quickly added.
Jiang Qi knew that it was useless to ask Xue Hua like this, so he thought about it and asked another way: "How does it compare with the play you saw in the theater in Peking before?"
Jiang Qi's question stopped Xue Hua. Xue Hua hesitated for a moment and finally chose the city: "The one over in Beiping is better."
"But there are more people there, the time is longer, and it's more lively." Xue Hua tried to make up for it, "Your place is not bad, really! If the acting is not good, I won't want to watch it until halfway through. I didn't want to watch it before."
