Deyun's salted fish, China Entertainment's superstar, the god of the game circle

Chapter 6

"Monster! Sing a section of the big drum book three times, and you've learned it?" Mr. Zhang Wenshun felt that his perception of the world seemed to be biased!And if it goes on like this, it won't be long before I have nothing to teach myself in the field of funny drums!After all, Funny Dagu is only one of Jingyun Dagu, which is considered a small genre, and there are really not many works handed down from generation to generation!

"Master, is my singing okay?"

"Well, that's right. I'll learn how to play the drums later. It's about the same as singing along. Oh, I have to learn the huqin, single strings, and three strings. They will be useful in the future." The old man secretly assigned a lot of learning tasks to his apprentice.He turned around and went back to his room. He had to think about what else he could teach. It was also an annoyance for this apprentice to learn too quickly.

Zhang Wenshun turned around and left. Tang Deyan was a little confused at the spot. He was also an apprentice for the first time. He didn't know what to do for a while, so he sang "Second Sister Liu Tethered the Baby" again. After singing, the master still didn't come out.

Fortunately, the weather was beautiful, and there was a sudden burst of rain. Zhang Wenshun called Tang Deyan to his room, and the two sat facing each other and drank tea for a while, listening to the sound of the rain getting louder and louder.

"Apprentice, your talent is too good, don't let it go to waste, learn more!" Zhang Wenshun said suddenly.

"Ah? Master, I'm learning from you. You just said that I should learn to play the drums and the erhu." Tang Deyan said puzzled.

"A little mastery of musical instruments is enough. For cross talk, it is about experience and savvy. It takes a long time to learn how to measure the same piece and how to shake the burden to make people laugh. Singing also takes time to grind, but your talent is too extraordinary! You learn too quickly. Our funny drum is a small genre. There are not many repertoires handed down from generation to generation. I'm afraid it's not enough for you to learn, so you have to learn other singing."

"Okay, master, I will learn whatever you teach me."

"I can't teach. If you want to learn, you have to learn the real way. You still have to be regulated by other experts." Zhang Wenshun said.

"Farewell, master, I only recognize you, and never thought of asking others to be my teacher." Tang Deyan said hastily.

Zhang Wenshun was very pleased with his apprentice's words, but he said: "It is common for us to have multiple masters in our quyi industry. Master, I also have two inheritances of cross talk and funny drums." The voice changed and he said:
"However, if you don't want to ask someone else, you can go back and tell Degang that you can learn the lyrics of Taiping from him. He is your senior brother, and he probably won't gain face from me. Dahui's Jingyun Dagu is also a well-known teacher, and it is enough to teach you. By the way, Degang has sung Pingju before, and Peking Opera is also a bit good, you can learn it too..."

Tang Deyan thought to himself: Why do I have to learn more and more things, and it seems that I am getting farther and farther away from a flat life. Fortunately, thanks to the cheat-like talent after rebirth, it is really not difficult to learn some opera and music, so I readily agreed.

Mr. Zhang Wenshun looked at the increasing rain outside, sighed and said, "It's raining heavily today, and I'm afraid there won't be many guests in the garden, so we have to stop the show."

Tang Deyan remembered watching Guo Degang’s interview in his previous life and said that before the Deyun Club became popular, there were often more actors than audiences. There was even one audience sitting in the audience but the actors still performed as usual. Now when he heard that the show was going to be suspended, he asked curiously: “Master, why is the show closed when it’s raining? What if there are guests coming into the garden?”

Zhang Wenshun gave him a white look: "If you don't sell tickets, who will enter the garden? As the old saying goes, the wind is halved, and the rain is all over. With today's weather, those who go to the rivers and lakes will know that they will not have a few guests, and those whose homes are far away probably won't come. You have to learn the tricks here, boy."

Tang Deyan felt that he was ridiculously stupid, didn't he? The audience bought tickets and entered the venue, so they must perform well for them, but if they didn't sell tickets at all, then what's the point of acting?Generate electricity for love?

Just as he was thinking about it, Zhang Wenshun got up and took out two umbrellas from behind the door, and threw one to him: "Let's go, guys, go to the garden and have a look. Degang and the others must be there. There is no business today, don't have money to eat."

After leaving the courtyard of the old man's house, we arrived at Guangde Building after a ten-minute walk.The two went directly to the backstage, and sure enough, there were not many people there.

Only Mr. Xing Wenzhao’s house is close to Mr. Xing Wenzhao’s. Xu Deliang from the younger generation didn’t come. Cao Yunjin and He Yunwei, Guo Degang’s apprentices, who are older enough to perform on stage independently, usually live in their own homes. Cao Yunjin came here today, and Zhang Yunlei and Pan Yunxia, ​​who were raised at home, followed him.

Zhang Wenshun took out dozens of dollars and handed it to Zhang Yunlei, and told the two little ones to go out and buy some food and come back. He took Tang Deyan into the lounge, greeted Xing Wenzhao, and said to Guo Degang, "It's raining heavily today, and it doesn't stop until noon. I'm afraid we won't be able to start the show?"

"It can't be opened anymore. I just informed the actors that the show will be closed today." Guo Degang got up and let Zhang Wenshun into his seat.

"Very good, it's time to rest, I asked your two little apprentices to buy food, and we can eat something backstage later."

"That's so embarrassing to make you spend money again."

"What's the matter with embarrassment, besides, I won't let you eat for free." He pointed to Tang Deyan and said, "My apprentice is too fast to learn, so I thought I'd let him learn more, and pass on your Taiping lyrics to him later."

"If you don't dislike it, I will definitely teach it with my heart. But I am afraid of learning too much. Don't learn everything by then, because you are not good at everything." Guo Degang said hesitantly.

"Why, still trust my eyesight? So, apprentice, let your senior brother and uncle play the part I taught you this morning."

It is said that the older a person is, the more he looks like a child. A child must love to show off. Zhang Wenshun naturally had to show off such a monstrous disciple.

The master opened his mouth, and the apprentice couldn't shirk it. Tang Deyan opened his voice and sang "Second Sister Liu Tethers the Baby". As soon as he opened his mouth, Mr. Xing Wenzhao was surprised. He thought that this little apprentice of Lao Zhang could do it.

Guo Degang had heard Tang Deyan sing before, and knew that he was good at imitating, so he didn't think it was unusual.But when Tang Deyan sang the whole section in one breath, Guo Degang was not calm anymore.

"Mr. Zhang, you said that you just gave this passage to Junior Brother Tang this morning?"

"To be exact, I taught him three times in the morning." Zhang Wenshun said calmly, taking a sip of tea.

"Can he learn the entire aria three times? With his level, I think he can be on stage!" Xing Wenzhao said: "Others take apprentices for three years to learn art and two years to work. You are learning art on the same day, and working on the same day!"
