Superstars start with variety show hosts

Chapter 147 Thinking Caused by Peking Opera, Luo Yiming's Redemption (Addition for Poison Scorpion Zhiguang)

Today's recording work, before starting, Luo Yiming's only difficulty was Teacher Mei Baojiu.

During the final preparations for the scene, Luo Yiming was talking with teacher Mei Baojiu.

The content of the conversation this time was also recorded by Luo Yiming for a while, telling Mr. Mei all he wanted to express and the recording effect that he could present.

Why did Luo Yiming have to learn Peking Opera from Master Mei Baojiu? Why did Luo Yiming not only ask the stage to invite Mr. Mei to participate in the show, but he had to do it himself.

In fact, Luo Yiming thought of it at the very beginning.

If not, Mr. Mei would definitely not agree to start his warm and thoughtful speech in such a form.

Although Taili will polish his speech if requested by the guests, and even ghostwrite the main direction of the speech.

But if the guest didn't ask, Luo Yiming would certainly not limit the content of Mei Lao's speech, he would guarantee the authenticity and spontaneity of the big name's speech.

However, in this issue, Luo Yiming must communicate with Mei Lao on this key issue.

Because, his opening will have a deep thinking about traditional Peking Opera.

This kind of thinking comes from a young man's true love for Peking Opera, and his original intention to promote Peking Opera and let more young people like Peking Opera.

But this thinking... If there is no communication, it is likely to make the teacher care about it.

Luo Yiming had to make sure that such a situation would not happen.

What's more, the current status of Peking Opera is extremely embarrassing. It is regarded as the quintessence of the country, but it can be said that many students are not interested in Peking Opera.They can show respect on the surface, but in fact, they still reject Peking Opera in their hearts.

In this issue, Luo Yiming's theme is to promote new Peking Opera on the basis of inheriting the art of traditional Peking Opera. If Peking Opera cannot be revitalized, Luo Yiming feels that the big names in the second issue will fail.

Mei Lao has agreed to perform a short section of the new Peking Opera with him on stage.

Therefore, in Mei Lao's speech, Luo Yiming also wanted him, a Peking opera master, to express his support for the new Peking opera.

Luo Yiming's question was not rash.

Because he knew that in his previous life, in 03, Taihe Maitian had announced that it would collaborate with Mei Lao to release a Peking Opera record.

After years of careful preparation, a set of epoch-making Peking Opera discs was finalized, and it was released simultaneously with the movie "Mei Lanfang" in 07.

All of Mr. Mei Lanfang's Peking opera arias in the previous life "Mei Lanfang" were all completed by Mei Lao on behalf of his father.

It is worth mentioning that the listed two big dramas "Taizhen Gaiden" and "The Drunken Concubine" not only inherited his father's will to promote the art of Peking Opera, but also maintained the traditional essence of Peking Opera.

Mei Lao also boldly tried a new way of expression that fit the times.

In the albums "The Drunken Concubine" and "Taizhen Gaiden", Mei Lao integrated Chinese folk music, Western orchestral music and other elements with Peking Opera, elevating Peking Opera from traditional opera to the height of musical works, creating a new milestone in the Chinese Peking Opera circle.

Luo Yiming was a fan of new Beijing opera in his previous life, so he can remember these things.

In fact, Mei Baojiu is quite "fashionable" in terms of her living habits and hobbies, and she is definitely not stick to the rules.

He is a quasi-professional audiophile, record collector and even car enthusiast.

In his previous life, he occasionally drove by himself.

Regarding the set of records he released in 07, Mei Baojiu said that the future of opera is changing with the needs of the public and the times, and I am willing to seek development on a new path.

Because of this, Luo Yiming was able to boldly ask Mr. Mei to include this expression of the new Peking Opera in his speech.

The successor of the Mei school of art is also the most experienced figure in the Beijing opera industry. If he approves the form of the new Peking opera, after this program is broadcast, there will inevitably be heated discussions in the media, including Peking opera critics, and even netizens.

And various Peking opera performing artists may start their exploration of Peking opera because of Mei Lao's words.

Of course, the traditional Peking Opera must be preserved and passed on, but the new Peking Opera is so outstanding that I believe it will be achieved soon.

Mr. Mei Baojiu is actually a music enthusiast.

Every time he travels abroad.The luggage on the return journey is full of big bags and small bags, and most of them are musical equipment bought from Akihabara.

The records of Deng Lijun, Four Heavenly Kings, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion and others are also Mei Baojiu's true love.

Luo Yiming didn't know that there was a dedicated audio room in Mei's old home, and the equipment was luxurious and advanced.

Mei has known for a long time that the existence of modern Beijing opera is embarrassing, but unfortunately, he is already old. Even if he has the heart to revitalize Peking opera, time is not forgiving, and there is not enough energy left.

At this time, Luo Yiming told him these things.

If you don't know this person well, Mei Baojiu is not sure about Luo Yiming's purpose.

But during this period of contact, Mei Lao knew that Luo Yiming sincerely wanted to promote the development of Peking Opera.

In his speech, he added a paragraph of support for the ideology of new Peking opera, calling on young people who like Peking opera to explore the outlet of Peking opera and perform in the form of new Peking opera. Mei Lao thought it was a good idea.

After some "long talks", the two reached a consensus on this issue.

The on-site director informed that everything was ready, and Luo Yiming also stepped onto the stage of the studio first.

"Today's program is about the quintessence of our country, Peking Opera. Before the program starts, I would like to ask the audience friends a question, do you like Peking Opera?"

I don't know Luo Yiming's stalk, when Luo Yiming stood there with a serious face, after the opening, the students were dumbfounded.

The few in the front row who reacted very quickly played the role of Tuo and said, "I like it."

But the voice was not neat, and there was still some hesitation.

"Zuo Yan, do you like Peking Opera? Tell the truth."

Zuo Yan thought for a while and said, "I like it, but I just think it's a very elegant existence, and I may not have the ability to appreciate it yet."

Luo Yiming continued to look at Zhang Weiwei: "What about you, Weiwei."

Zhang Weiwei was silent.

"I can think that if you don't talk, it's because you don't like Peking Opera?"

Zhang Weiwei was still silent and didn't respond.

This is her true inner reaction.

Luo Yiming stopped asking questions, facing the audience, Luo Yiming's voice became more serious: "Why do most young people today not like to listen to Peking Opera?"

"Is it because the artistry of Peking Opera is too high, as Zuo Yan said, we can't appreciate it? Or is it the impetuousness of modern society."

"I don't think so!"

Luo Yiming's words suddenly changed, which made all the audience stunned for a moment.

Today is the Peking Opera artist invited.

Therefore, the rhythm of the theme is not played like this.

Luo Yiming felt that he was going to make trouble.

Luo Yiming really wanted to do something.

In this episode of the program, Luo Yiming is going to do something.

Standing on the edge of the podium, he was still serious and earnest: "We have never lacked highly complex art, and if art itself wants to continue to develop, it must constantly update itself."

"Peking opera is a traditional art. As far as Peking opera is concerned, it is not overly complicated and the threshold is not too high. The early stage of its creation, that is, the end of the Qing Dynasty, fully fit the context and mentality at that time."

"For example, the famous Su San Qijie took place in Shanxi in the Ming Dynasty, but the singing in this play is an out-and-out old Beijing movie, and the social structure and even the official positions reflected in it are all set by the Qing Dynasty."

"That's why Peking opera almost became popular culture at that time, and everyone from princes and ministers to pawns and traffickers would hum a few words, and would "tear tears" or "blush when watching it."

"So young people don't like it, I think it's because it can't fit the life of modern people and can't form a sense of substitution."

"Most people today prefer to watch TV dramas. When they go to work every day, everyone may discuss plots, celebrities, gossip and so on. These may resonate more."

"So, who still loves to listen to Peking Opera?"

wow.

If the front rhythm is not so obvious.

But as he talked, Luo Yiming didn't feel like he was doing a Beijing opera program, but rather like he was going to criticize Peking opera.
