Chapter 1529

In the other half of the dormitory, a grand piano with simple and exquisite workmanship was actually stuffed.

"You still have a piano?" Okamoto was a little surprised - he didn't remember any elder who brought a piano privately, but there were people who brought small instruments such as accordions.

But he soon realized that it was a product of this time and space: a harpsichord.

"I bought this from Macau with my own money." Dongfang said, "I don't have a real piano, so I just made do with this."

The two sat down in silence and poured wine.The two looked at each other, as if they didn't know where to start.

"Well, thank you for your expense," Dongfang suddenly said, "Since there is wine, there is no need to ask whether tea or coffee, Bach, Mozart or Brahms? Or do you like Tchaikovsky?"

"Ah? What?" Okamoto began to find that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the person in front of him.

"Huh? I'm just asking what you want to hear. Wouldn't it be impossible to eat dinner without music?"
"This way...you can choose Bach." After Okamoto was astonished, he began to feel that he had found the right person.

"Okay, can Jinshan Variations be okay? Gould or Turek?"

Okamoto has begun to get used to this kind of dialogue: "Priest, listen slowly while eating."

Dongfang Ke opened the cabinet and began to look for CDs, and then connected the player to the speakers. Okamoto caught a glimpse of the densely packed alphabet index cards in the cabinet.

The clear and delicate sound of the piano floated from the speaker, and Okamoto said while picking up vegetables with chopsticks: "Your private collection...is it the only one in the Senate?"

"Actually no, the office and planning institute have more professional entertainment equipment, but there is no better one in my private collection than my cabinet. I was really reluctant to leave the Samsung record with flowers before I traveled, so I brought it here. The speakers were built by hand." In the quiet small room, Dongfang Ke's tone seemed to become a little more normal.

"Well, it's really enjoyable, but you can listen to these things yourself, and you can't let the naturalized people see it. Bach is not even a liquid!"

"Ha, that's right, no one can understand it when it's released. The Senate's propaganda to the outside world is in a simple and rude style. It is enough for the army and navy to copy a few pieces of old military music. I even wrote lyrics for them."

"By the way, I've done it too! If I hadn't changed the lyrics for the Navy's warship march, I couldn't sing it."

The atmosphere became more natural under the catalysis of dinner and music, and the two chatted a lot about music appreciation.

Then drunk Okamoto asked the question that he had been wondering: "Why do you still live in such a small dormitory? And why didn't you see the maid?"

"Ah, because the office building is close, you don't have to worry about oversleeping and being late--also, the bigger the house, the more troublesome it is, you need to tidy up." Dongfang Ke replied nonchalantly.

"What? Alone? Didn't you buy a maid? As far as I know, the only ones who don't buy maids among the single male elders are Ji Xin who protects the aborigines and that... that... Cui..." Okamoto Suddenly a little surprised that the quotations no matter the times.

"Okay... don't doubt my direction... I'm a straight man, not a two-way plug..." Dongfang shook his head helplessly, "The maid was just randomly drawn at the B level, so naturally I asked for it anyway. Subsidy, but I really don't like being annoyed by people around me, so I was sent to the old man's villa area to help me look at the house."

This person's tone of voice when talking about maids is completely different from that of ordinary time-traveling otaku——Okamoto thought, wouldn't there be someone who didn't travel time-traveling for endless girls?
"Then why did you travel over here? You don't care about power or color. Maybe in a few years, the speaker will be broken and you won't even be able to hear it without loss."

"Oh, time travel, it's just boring, if you don't want to be a girl, you can do something else, the 17th century is much more free than ours, hahaha, besides, there is nothing to miss in the 21st century." Dongfang's face appeared A strange smile that had never been seen before.Okamoto felt that it was better not to continue this topic, and went straight to the point.

"So, do you have any good suggestions for the opera troupe? It's still difficult to make preparations, and there are not enough staff!"

"Before we get into the discussion on this topic, I have a question."

"What is your job?"

"I am the newly-appointed Director of the Management Office of the Art Troupe—and the head of the Central Art Troupe."

"So there is a project for what you and I talked about."

"Of course. Things without a project are just talking on paper." Shin Okamoto talked about the plan with great interest-such as opera and dance theaters, ballet troupes, symphony orchestras, etc., wishing to copy all the art groups in the old time and space... …is immediately interrupted by Dongfang Ke:
"Well, these are meaningless. What we lack most now are teachers—especially professional teachers. If we say that China was poor and white in the 50s, at least there were the Soviet Union as teachers, and we also had a few returnees who had drunk foreign ink. Now we ourselves Represents the most advanced productive forces and social culture, even if you want to use it, you can't find it..."

"Indeed. I have checked the resources myself, whether it is teachers or equipment, they are poor and useless."

"I'm afraid there aren't even modern pianos?"

"There is a piano: there is an old Nie Er in the entertainment room of Fengcheng Wheel. It seems that it has been shelved for at least 40 to [-] years. If you want to repair it, you need a tuner." Okamoto was a little embarrassed, "I didn't This skill."

"The piano doesn't matter. Because both harpsichord and clavichord have appeared here. The latter is very similar to modern pianos. I believe that you can find a tuner in Europe. If you are willing to spend more money, find a few technicians to follow the piano. It wouldn't be too hard to sample a modern piano."

"The Planning Institute used to ask Quark Poor to purchase musical instruments and recruit musicians and craftsmen in Europe. Instrumental music should not be a problem."

"Hmm, in this era of art troupes, there is no systematic bel canto training even in Europe. I think you have to go to the church to get help with Dean Wu and get two choir members. The Italian vocal music club has already started, at least A little better than us. There is also Mrs. Liu, who is teaching music and dance in the Fangcaodi and Maid School. Can the executive committee come forward to borrow it for us. By the way, the Italian Lando does not know if there is something about their ethnicity. Talent skill points? I don’t know Bel Canto at all, playing the piano and memorizing scores can help, as for changing lyrics and plagiarism, it’s a fixed program, so please ask for drafts whenever you need it.”

"Great! In the future, the position of deputy director of the Central Art Troupe will be yours, but there is still no way to solve the problem of composition and creation! After all, I only study vocal music."

"It doesn't matter, I have a lot of electronic archives in addition to records, hundreds of gigabytes, basically there are classical and modern operas, and there are revolutionary model operas. Of course, it is Quyi. The resources in the database of the large library are estimated. It is counted in T, and there must be a score archive, so we simplified the arrangement, anyway, this space-time Senate is the source of all creativity!"

Dongfang Ke took a sip of rum while talking: "But the symphony orchestra is still not good for the time being. High-quality musical instruments may not be satisfied by outsourcing. Except for the violin, most Western musical instruments have not appeared. If you want to produce it yourself We have to search for a stage, there are no suitable craftsmen in China, and we have to travel thousands of miles from Europe. In addition, we have no command."

"Well, anyway, what I want to do most is opera. I was worried about composing and soundtrack, but I am confident after seeing your private collection today! Come! Cheers!" Okamoto raised his glass excitedly.

Dongfang Ke got up and changed a record - "Drinking Song", an excerpt from the opera "La Traviata", the high notes of Pavarotti and Sutherland fluttered in the night of this alien plane.

"The Formation of the Central Art Troupe" published a few years later recorded the "Evening Chats in Bairen City" of the founder of the Imperial Central Art Troupe, the famous conductor, the playwright Okamoto, and the amateur musician Dongfang Ke. .Of course, what is written in the book is that the two elders conceived the organizational structure of the opera troupe and symphony orchestra by lighting gas lamps in the simple dormitory area of ​​Bairen City. For the music, the elder Okamoto took out the scripts he had accumulated over the years to discuss how to arrange the singing parts, which fully demonstrated the hard work of the first generation of elders in the initial stage of the empire, and laid a solid foundation for the great and glorious achievements of the empire. Foundation.

Shortly after this conversation, Dongfang Ke was officially transferred from the Chief Financial Officer Department and became the deputy artistic director of the Central Experimental Art Troupe.Although he has changed positions, Cheng Dong still often assigns him a pile of ledgers.The old Dongfang was still cool and silently accepted him to work for Cai Jinkou. Okamoto asked him why he still took this job, and the old Dongfang replied coolly as usual: "Because the art troupe has nothing to do." Ben almost lost his temper.

Although the Central Experimental Art Troupe has established a project, there are not many people who are enthusiastic about it.While the veterans of the East continued to immerse themselves in HI-Fi and ledgers, Okamoto ran around to implement various resources.Fortunately, the general office began to consider the transformation of the maid training class. Xiao Zishan regarded the art troupe as a good place to house the maid academy and gave him full support. The art troupe opened its doors in a short period of time, settled down in the county, and mobilized various resource.

Okamoto and Dongfang naturally contributed their own wealth, and the Planning Institute also allocated all kinds of rags related to performing arts in stock to the art troupe. In addition to purchasing bugles, fifes and snare drums for the needs of the army, other musical instruments were not included in the scope of procurement at all.Fortunately, quite a few of the elders could play musical instruments, and they personally carried a few musical instruments.
