Chapter 133 Ridiculous
So, where is Tao Tao?

Back to the day before yesterday, our boss Tao Zi returned to Jinsha City after finishing his performance in Yunnan Province. He had just put down his luggage, took a shower and changed his clothes. He contacted Tao Li and asked him when he would return the car to Yang Huai.

Tao Li was very upset and said, it must be Yang who is urging you again.Urging, urging, urging?Yang Huai didn't dare to tell me about the car, but only asked you, because he thought you were honest and easy to bully.This is a person who cannot be weak.

Tao Tao said softly, little brother, you've been driving that car for so long, shouldn't it be enough?After all, it is such a valuable thing, it is not appropriate not to return it.For your sake, I let Yang Huai join my team as a musician.Lao Liu felt a little upset when someone robbed him of his job, and it will be difficult for me to take care of others in the future.It's okay if I'm not at home, the big deal is to say a few perfunctory words on the phone.Isn't it back to work now? It's too embarrassing to see each other every day.

Tao Li said, aren't you the boss? They dare not listen to what you say, as if someone cares about that broken car.Okay, okay, I'm tired of playing too, I'll drive it to you later.

Hearing that he promised to return the car, Tao Tao let out a long breath.

Tao Li was having dinner with his friends, so he said that he would drive over to pick Tao Tao up after dinner, and returned the car.

During this time, Tao Tao has been performing in XX City, Yunnan Province. The climate there is the same as that of Jinsha City, with bright sunshine and strong ultraviolet rays in winter.This time it was also bad luck, all the performances were at the grassroots level, and the conditions were poor, so she got tanned all over.

It happened that the mask at home was exhausted, so I took my wallet and went to the street to buy it.

As soon as she left the gate of the unit, there was a commercial vehicle parked beside her, and a fashionable middle-aged woman came down from it, stretched out her hand and smiled and asked if she was Boss Tao Tao.

Seeing Tao Tao nod her head, the woman shook hands with her in surprise, and said repeatedly: "Hello, Boss Tao, I knew you were in Jinsha City for a long time, and I have always wanted to come to look for relatives. Today I can be regarded as meeting someone, and I would like to invite you to have a light meal together." .”

Tao Tao was amused in her heart, this elder sister was talking about it, and she even got involved with finding relatives.

But after hearing that person introduced her name as Su Muzhe, Tao Tao was pleasantly surprised when she had learned opera from the master of Dian opera, Yuzhen, and hurriedly said, "Hello, senior sister."

Su Muzhe didn't dare to say it repeatedly, and he himself learned opera for two months, and he wasn't even considered a disciple.

Tao Tao entered a drama school after graduating from elementary school, focusing on Sichuan opera, but she also had to learn Peking opera, Huangmei opera, Yue opera, Henan opera and other local operas. She had to take at least two semesters of classes to learn widely.Teacher Yuzhen, a master of Dian opera, taught Tao Tao for one year at the Academy of Drama, and in terms of what she has gained, she is indeed better than someone like Su Muzhe who has only studied for two months.

Back then, opera learning was a nationwide system, and students like Tao Tao were authentic, while Su Muzhe was a wild fox Zen.

Su Muzhe said again, she also inquired about you, Boss Tao, for a long time.

Since he was so enthusiastic, and everyone had this relationship, Tao Tao didn't understand human affairs, and she didn't have any precautions in her heart, so she followed.

Su Muzhe and his party consisted of three people, and the place where Tao Tao was received was naturally the most upscale restaurant in the city, and the dishes he ordered also tried to cater to Tao Tao's taste, and all of them were light.

However, she still opened a bottle of red wine, saying that the wine is a vegetarian wine, which is not considered meaty, nor does it hurt her throat.

Tao Tao just smiled and shook her head, drinking only mineral water.

Su Muzhe sighed and said to the two accompanying people, look at how self-disciplined Boss Rentao is, you are still actors, you drink too much wine, you eat garlic, white meat, and steamed pig's trotters, you deserve to be miserable.

After she drank a glass of wine, she chatted with Tao Tao about Yunnan opera.

As the name suggests, Dian Opera is a local opera in Dian Province. It uses Southwest Mandarin, which is similar to Sichuan Opera.However, unlike the humorous and optimistic Sichuan Opera, the tunes of Dian Opera are solemn, euphemistic, bold, and sometimes even bleak. This can be seen from its classic plays "Sacrifice to the Three Rivers", "Killing the Four Gates" and "Erlong Mountain" come out.

The reason is very simple. The silk tune in Dian opera is mainly derived from Qin opera, and the singing method is mainly "bitter taste", which is really bitter, and it is called Qin opera.

In addition, there is another genre of Dian opera that has been influenced by Sichuan opera, and that is Sichuan Luzi.

There is another genre that borrows many huqin tunes from Peking opera, that is Erhuang, which is Jingluzi.

Communicating with colleagues is indeed a very happy thing. Tao Tao and Su Muzhe chatted about "Two Pots" and "Three Pots" in Yunnan Opera.

Su Muzhe's voice was so loud that it was piercing, according to the local dialect of the people in the Southwest Province, it was "stunned." The entire small private room was filled with her giggles.This man is really hot and fast.

Everyone chatted, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

During the period, Tao Li called to ask where Tao Tao was, and said he would come to pick him up in half an hour.

Tao Tao nodded and replied, the meal here should be finished in half an hour, so come here.

Hearing she said that she would leave in half an hour, Su Muzhe and the three exchanged winks.

After chatting for a few more words, seeing that the heat had come, Su Muzhe said that she opened a folk performing arts company.Future masters like Tao Tao, who have entered the house, dare not invite them to go to the acupuncture point.But Boss Tao Tao, if you are interested and have time, you may wish to come and sing a few times to support the scene.At that time, there will naturally be a heartfelt offer.By the way, Hou Shirong from your center is also walking around our company, everyone is lively together, isn't it?

It turned out that the scumbag was the mascot for Su Muzhe.

In the past two years, the theatrical performance market has been booming, and Su Muzhe's business has been doing well, earning a lot of money.It's a pity that the people under him are not up to expectations, their artistic skills are too poor, and they are often booed by knowledgeable audiences.Finally, Hou Shirong came, and this guy is another eating and drinking Bodhisattva.

She wanted to bring a master in the industry over to sit in charge, so she put the idea on Tao Tao's head.As long as Boss Tao comes to lead her company, her performing arts company in Jinsha City, and even the entire northern and eastern Yunnan, will be a well-known brand.

But Tao Tao's expression changed immediately: "I won't go."

She claims to have a professional background, and she has acquired the mantle of a domestic art master, and has always looked down on folk artists.Last time, because I was in a hurry to spend money, I accepted Lu Chaoyang's play, but I felt quite unhappy during the whole performance.I feel that the matter of walking acupuncture points is self-deprecation and loss of status.

Su Muzhe carefully asked: "Is it because of Lu Chaoyang's relationship? I heard people say that Boss Lu and your husband Han Lu are old friends. Yes, yes, yes, it's really against the rules of the world for me to poach him. But, I think that things like the rules of the world depend on money. Since Lao Lu's family factory closed down, money has been tight, and he can't give Boss Tao a big red envelope. In the world, whoever has the big red envelope will set the rules."

The colleagues are enemies. Speaking of Boss Lu, Boss Su has nothing good to say.

She said again, what can I say about Lu Chaoyang, he only cares about making money, he doesn't choose jobs, he only goes about the red and white things in the villages and towns and even in the countryside.And he was timid, so he could only hang out in the southwestern and southern Sichuan areas, and never thought about going out to the metropolis.

Su Muzhe commented that "there is no gully in the chest, no rivers and mountains in the eyes, and Lu Chaoyang's pattern is small." But she is different.Although she married to Jinsha City, her hometown is in the east of Yunnan, and she has a close relationship with the small theater there.As long as you, Boss Tao, come to act, there are plenty of stages at the city and county levels to display your talents, and we will go to Spring City next.

Speaking of this, her eyes were full of anticipation.

Tao Tao snorted: "Lu Chaoyang is a fool, but I still won't go to your side."

Su Muzhe: "Then why do you still refuse to come to me? Boss Tao, you have to speak up. If you don't speak up, how will I know what you think?"

Tao Tao suddenly said, "It's fine to go to your place to sing, but I have to decide the repertoire."

Su Muzhe was pleasantly surprised: "Boss Tao, you can sing whatever you want, just say it, as long as people arrive."

Tao Tao: "I want to sing "Hujiazhuang"."

The three people's eyes lit up at the same time, and they said yes repeatedly, and Su Muzhe giggled again, saying: "Boss Tao, you really know how to choose plays. A master like you is only worthy of such a big play. Tell me." , whichever show you want to sing, I will arrange it when I go down."

Hujiazhuang is based on "Water Margin", Hu Sanniang, a female general of Hujiazhuang, assists Zhujiazhuang and is an enemy of Liang Shanbo.Under Song Jiang's order, Wang Ying led his generals to attack Hu's family village, but was captured alive by Hu Sanniang.This play emphasizes both singing, reading, acting and fighting, showing the performance characteristics of Sichuan Opera Wudan "beautiful, charming and crisp".

The actor who plays the leading role of Hu Sanniang not only needs to sing well in the play, but also has strong artistic expression. He also needs to be extremely proficient in martial arts. In less than 20 or [-] years, he can't even master the boy's kung fu.

This play is mainly based on martial arts, but it has a lot of libretto.One moment you were playing like a marathon, and the next moment you had to sing a long paragraph. Many girls were out of breath during the performance and immediately collapsed.

This is also the touchstone for actresses in Sichuan opera, success is success, failure is failure, and there is no room for falsehood.

While talking, Su Muzhe said again: "Why don't you, Boss Tao, play the sixth scene where the short-legged tiger Wang Ying was captured alive. It was lively and the audience liked it too."

Tao Tao: "I'll play the whole game."

One of them took a deep breath: ""Hujiazhuang" has a total of twelve scenes, from Song Jiang's soldiers to the No. 12 scene where Lin Chong captures Hu Sanniang alive, and it takes an hour to act. Including the cutscene in the middle, more than an hour has passed. If you want to book the show, what else is there to do?"

Tao Tao said lightly, "That's my condition."

Su Muzhe immediately understood, and said, "Boss Tao Tao, are you making fun of me?"

She runs the folk performance market, mostly small theaters, and follows the principles of market economy.Although it does not mean that the audience can act whatever they like to watch, sometimes the audience is actually quite vulgar, if they want to watch a three-point dance, can you act?As long as you dare to organize girls to play today, you will have tea in the game tomorrow.However, it is still necessary to choose programs that meet the tastes of most people, so as to satisfy both refined and popular tastes.

They play under the banner of theatrical troupe. Traditional dramas are definitely included, but not too many. There are only one or two programs, and each program is only ten, twenty, 10 minutes long.At other times, they perform magic, storytelling, singing and dancing, etc., just like a variety show.

As soon as Tao Tao opens her mouth, she will cover the whole audience, please, what era is it now, who is willing to sit there for more than an hour and listen to you singing from beginning to end?
She, Boss Su, can't continue this business.

Tao Tao's temperament is like that, but she didn't want to hide her face from Su Mu, so she put down her chopsticks and stood up: "If you think so, then you are. It's getting late, I should go home."

The two people who came with Su Muzhe looked angry.

Su Muzhe: "Boss Tao, wait."

Tao Tao raised her slender, long and black eyebrows: "Boss Su wants to force me to stay?"

Su Muzhe suddenly giggled: "Outside is the Guangming Avenue, and the rivers and lakes are far away. If Boss Tao has real skills, no one can stop a strong dragon from crossing the river."

Since she carried out the rules of the Liyuan, Tao Tao couldn't leave, so she stood still: "Boss Su wants to have tea, so it's easy to talk about."
