Heroines: Opening Dialogue with Wu Zetian

Chapter 29 The heart of a child has never changed!

"Next question!"

"Mr. Liu, you must have suffered a lot to become a famous opera master. Could you introduce us?"

Liu Xikui nodded with a smile.

"In our Liyuan industry, learning opera is also called playing opera. As the saying goes, you can't become a talent if you don't play. I was often beaten by my master when I was young."

"Although there are often scars on my body, Master still loves me very much. He will teach me the way of opera performance without reservation, and care about my life."

"Of course, it's a new society now, and this method is rough and not suitable."

"However, if you want to learn opera, you have to endure hardships. You have to practice in summer, practice counting nine in winter, hang your voice, press your body, and memorize opera...all these things have to be learned seriously."

"As the saying goes, 1 minute on stage, ten years off stage!"

……

"Mr. Liu is right. In fact, everything is like this. If you don't study hard, how can you succeed?"

"From an opera student to an opera master, Boss Liu has suffered so much during this period!"

"Yes, there are so many opera actors, but only a few can become famous. This road is really difficult!"

……

"Okay! Last question, ask after you think about it!"

"Ms. Liu, we have rehearsed a new Hebei Bangzi play called "The Beauty of the North Country", which tells your story! Can we perform a short part for you?"

"My story? Oh oh... of course."

Liu Xikui was a little surprised, she never imagined that her own story would be turned into an opera.

Seeing that Liu Xikui agreed, those opera performers gave way one after another, and an actress wearing the costume of the Republic of China came out and bowed deeply.

"The next thing I'm going to sing is a play from Hebei Bangzi's "Northern Beauty", called "Ode to an Actor"!"

After all, the opera drums sounded, and the actress began to sing.

"Heaven and earth have righteousness, the spirit is beautiful and clear, in the mountains and forests it is nectar, in the grasslands it is gentle breeze, infiltrating art gardens is talent, the world knows how many wonderful and famous actresses. The patriarch Tang Minghuang is the most spiritual, the generation of masters praises, the great musician Li Gui Years, titles, reputation..."

After finishing singing, Liu Xikui burst into tears and kept nodding.

"Good singing, good singing! I am very pleased that operas of later generations can have this kind of performance!"

"Thank you Teacher Liu!!"

……

"Miss Sister sings really well. If Teacher Liu Xikui can really hear it, she should be very happy too!"

"Unfortunately, it's just a show."

"However, this form of expression is already very good!"

"If there is a chance, I want to sing a song for those revolutionary martyrs!"

……

Su Qingyue disappeared and waved again. The scene immediately changed to a hospital for the wounded in a tent.

"This is the rear battlefield of the Anti-Flower Aid High School. These volunteer soldiers are suffering from injuries. Teacher Liu Xikui is over 60 years old at this time, but he still insists on coming to the battlefield to condolence to the soldiers."

"Comrades! You are fighting for your country on the battlefield, and my wife is not to be outdone. I can't do anything else, but it's okay to sing a few plays for you!"

After all, Liu Xikui began to sing melodious operas. The wounded soldiers had smiles on their faces when they listened to these operas, and even their pain seemed to be reduced a lot.

……

"Teacher Liu Xikui is awesome! Volunteer soldiers must be very happy to hear opera in a foreign country."

"In his 60s, he went to the battlefield. Teacher Liu Xikui is just like the young man who preached patriotism and national salvation."

"Mr. Liu Xikui's childlike heart has never changed!"

……

Su Qingyue waved again, and the picture flowed, and she came directly to the Huaxia Revolutionary Cemetery, standing in front of Liu Xikui's tombstone.

"After Teacher Liu Xikui passed away, she was buried in the Huaxia Revolutionary Cemetery. Her life was magnificent and full of legends, but her patriotic heart will never change!"

"A big river has wide waves, and the wind blows the fragrance of rice and flowers on both sides..."

A piece of familiar music sounded, and the audience in front of the screen sang along with the song.

……

"It's on fire!"

"This song is so familiar, I can sing it since I was a child!"

"I love my motherland! I love my hometown! I love Chinese opera!"

……

Huaxia Revolutionary Cemetery.

Countless young people came here spontaneously, holding flowers in their hands, and personally placed them on Liu Xikui's tombstone.

"I'm sorry, I don't know enough about your deeds, and now I have a little understanding after watching the program "Dialogue with Ancient and Modern Times"!"

"Teacher Liu Xikui, you are a strong person, no suffering can defeat you, you are a hero!"

"Mr. Liu Xikui, thank you for your contribution to Huaxia opera! Don't worry, Huaxia opera will never disappear!"

……

Huaxia Opera Academy.

A group of opera students walked into the rehearsal classroom silently, practicing opera singing and posture.

Sweat was constantly oozing from their brows, but they never cried out for being tired once.

Yes, compared with Teacher Liu Xikui, what is this little bitterness and tiredness?

As long as we can inherit our Chinese civilization and carry forward Chinese opera culture, all the training is worth it!

……

Inside a certain elementary school.

Countless elementary school students are singing along with the songs in the program with immature voices, their eyes are firm, and the red scarves on their chests are very bright.

……

Su Qingyue snapped her fingers, and the picture returned to the studio, and the opera drums sounded again. Those facial makeup and costumes all turned into particles flying around, and finally turned into a huge golden record floating in the air, which read Author of "Huaxia Opera".

"Dialogue with heroines, promote traditional culture! I am the host Su Qingyue!"

"Dear viewers! This is the end of the fifth episode of "Dialogue with Ancient and Modern Times". See you next time!"

With the continuous beating of opera drums, the curtains on both sides slowly moved to the middle, just like the curtain call of an opera.

……

"I'm so touched! This episode of the program let me know a famous Chinese opera, and the Chinese opera is really great!"

"Who says it's not, Huaxia Opera can definitely rejuvenate, I believe!"

"I want to do some cultural and creative projects related to Chinese opera, so that more young people can participate!"

"I will go to Liyuan to see more plays in the future! Huaxia opera is really good!"

……

A foreign video platform.

"Oh, my God, is this a Huaxia Peking Opera?"

"No, this is Hebei Bangzi! There are many types of Chinese opera, not just Peking opera."

"Oh, it's so nice! I love Chinese opera!"

"No, no, no, this is not a Chinese opera, it is obviously our Korean opera!"

"Everyone, come and see! Goryeo is here to steal again!"

……

A digital music company.

"Boss, the background shows that there are a large number of users listening to opera! The number of hits and comments has been skyrocketing!"

"Okay, okay, hurry up and contact the Huaxia Opera Research Institute to get their opera music authorization! Not short of money! Do you understand?"

"understand!"

……

A theater troupe.

"Head! Many theaters have sent us invitations, let's hurry up and perform?"

"what's going on?"

"I heard that the audience watched the program "Dialogue with Ancient and Modern Times" and bought tickets one after another to come and listen to the show!"

"Okay, okay, let everyone know and perform on stage!"

　A lot of comments, favorites.
