687. Efforts to persuade

According to the historical trajectory, his Chang family class will start making money, and at least three years later. Perhaps he and his Chang family class can last until that time, but in this world, there are no other reborn people, and no human beings who can see through the fog. So in his opinion, he never thought that there would be a performance fee, and he just needed to ensure that the other party solves the problem of food and accommodation. As a result, the other party directly gave a big surprise, which made the old man unhappy.

When the matter was talked about, the old man had to agree, but after thinking about it, he asked his heart again: "This, I wonder how many times should we sing with such good conditions? Are there any requirements for the repertoire?"

When the matter was talked about, the old man had to agree, but after thinking about it, he asked his heart again: "This, I wonder how many times should we sing with such good conditions? Are there any requirements for the repertoire?"

As a result, when Yang Yi explained to him that the song could not follow their traditions, but should be edited and edited the content provided by Paiyangyi Culture, and made changes in many places, the old man's face became a little bad. Perhaps it could not be said to be bad, but the hesitation and slight dissatisfaction could be seen by everyone: "What else should I change the singing style? Where is the most important part of our Kunqu Opera? Isn't it the Shuimo Singing Style? If I change it according to your requirements, it is still called Kunqu Opera? In the future, how can I tell my grandfather and father about this? Oh, your grandson and son cannot withstand the temptation of money. So I went out to sing a Kunqu Opera without Shuimo Singing Style? It would be strange if they didn't beat me to death!"

Speaking of this, the old man was also excited. He kept waving his hands and gestured: "Forget it, it seems that we are not lucky enough to perform operas, so we should just farm and support ourselves."

Seeing this result, Wang Jing's mother was naturally a little embarrassed, but she could not persuade her when her teacher was angry. Although it was a long time ago to learn skills from the elderly, whether it was the industry who entered this industry, according to the industry rules, or her own personality, it made her unable to speak.

When Director Chen saw that he was not the head. Thinking of his leader’s instructions before leaving, he stood up and smoothed out: “Actually, we can’t say that. We must be very clear about this. If there were no authentic things, many traditional things could not be considered traditional. But Mr. Chang, I would like to ask one thing, you Kunqu opera has never changed at all since the beginning? It has not changed for thousands of years?”

Although he is not a big leader, Director Chen can still speak at a certain level, and he directly asked the key to the question.

The old man there was indeed amazement after hearing this question, but then he realized: "Why hasn't changed? Of course there are changes. But the changes before were slowly explored by generations, and it is impossible to change the core of Kunqu Opera. But your requirements are different now. Don't you have a singing style, what kind of Kunqu Opera is? Just find a few young people who sing pop songs and dress up as if we were singing operas on stage?"

"This cannot be compared..." Although that's the case, Director Chen had no convincing reason in the end. He could only shake his head constantly.

The man and the woman who served the old man next to him were a little older, and it seemed like they were either sons or disciples in person. However, the other little girl was only in her teens. When she heard this, she not only pouted, she was obviously very dissatisfied with her grandfather's decision.

Yang Yi thought about it again. Before, Wang Jing's mother just said that her teacher didn't love anything, but she was determined to ensure that the troupe would not break up and that Kunqu Opera could continue to be sung. So he thought with preconceived thought that as long as such an old man came up with the conditions to increase the exposure rate of Kunqu Opera, the other party would agree. But he never expected that the old man was too persistent in tradition and disagreed with their stage planning plan.

However, it has been said to this level. If the old man cannot be persuaded to perform, then the chairman is the first one to be unfavorable. The first person cannot be persuaded, and then there are so many people to contact, and it is impossible to lose confidence. The wording was organized in his mind, but the old man over there said first: "I don't know how to polite..."

"Teacher Chang, you are so serious. We are an invitation with integrity. How dare you say the question of whether to lift up or not?" Yang Yi waved his hand quickly, his attitude was very positive, and he was not angry about the old man's rejection.

"Okay, even if I'm an old man makes a mistake, it's not that I don't want to. In fact, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. My Chang family class hasn't received the venue for more than three months. In recent years, in addition to my own continued subsidies, the rest is to let my apprentices farm on their own and ensure their lives by themselves. Do you think I don't feel sorry for seeing it? It's so heartbreaking! Such a great time is the time for them to lay a solid foundation for their basic skills. If it's abandoned now, I won't be able to sing it out in the future. So I'm the first to be happy if someone is willing to invite us and spend money to invite us!"

After pausing, he picked up the teacup and swallowed a mouthful of tea. The old man put down the cup with a slight slap and continued, "But what you said just now? Change the singing style and the movements on the stage. It's okay to say the latter one, but if the singing style is slightly changed, who would admit that this is Kunqu Opera? If those old customers who listen to the opera hear it, they will not scold us under the stage?"

After saying this in one breath, the depression and resentment in the old man Chang seemed to have been slightly better, and he calmed down a little: "So it's not that I don't want to agree, but that I can't agree."

After Chang Hongqu finished speaking, Yang Yi looked at the man and woman behind him again. The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, while the little girl wrinkled her beautiful nose and bright eyes and looked back and forth on everyone's faces. After organizing the language, the boy couldn't help but ask: "Okay, then I won't talk about the question of asking the old man's team to go out for the opera. I will first ask another question - why is Kunqu opera no one cares about it now?"

"this……"

Although the old man sang Kunqu opera for his whole life, he really couldn't answer the questions that involved many aspects and were even related to metaphysical social philosophy.

However, Yang Yi didn't think about asking the other party to answer. He said bluntly: "Maybe there are many reasons, but I think there is one of them, Mr. Chang, you must not be able to refute it. That is, it is not the trend of the current society, young people... Maybe it's not just young people, but also the middle-aged people who have mastered the right to speak in society are not very interested, right?"

The old man thought about it very seriously before nodding: "Although I feel that what you said is a bit incomplete, at least this reason is one of them, and I don't talk nonsense."

Yang nodded, and was also very satisfied with the old man's honesty and frankness, and then explained: "When our generation, that is, more and more people who are influenced by foreign culture, grow up and enter society, what will happen at that time will it be like? Chang Lao, think about it yourself? Now there are still people who can think of Kunqu Opera, but in another twenty years, will anyone not even know what Kunqu Opera is? Is this a big deal?"

The old man was silent again. It was obvious that he didn't know how to answer, but he didn't want to answer and didn't dare to answer.

So Yang Yi took advantage of the victory to pursue and continued to persuade: "If you want to keep Kunqu Opera, there are many traditional cultures. At least you have to let future generations know what is going on. What is going on? Although our changes have indeed destroyed the essence of Kunqu Opera. But it is to let more people understand this art. Even without the water-mill singing style, there is also a unique makeup, which is different from other operas. Only by giving contact with the public, or by letting the public contact and not leaving at the first time but willing to feel it, Kunqu Opera, and your Chang Family Class, can it be passed on, right?"

Without waiting for the old man to speak, he said excitedly: "And Mr. Chang, you said it yourself. Kunqu Opera has not been unchanged since its origin. It has been through long changes and improvements that have led to the existence of this kind of folk art opera today. So even if you sit in the water-melting singing style, do you have no confidence to not let those Kunqu Opera predecessors beautify the past and make some contributions to the transformation of Kunqu Opera? Or, Chang, you are just a person who is lying on the merit book of his predecessors and keeps tradition, but ends up hurting Kunqu Opera."

After hearing Yang Yi's agitated, Director Chen was fine. After all, he didn't know the old man's personality and wanted to see if the old man could not withstand the boy's agitated. However, Wang Jing's mother and children and grandchildren behind the old man couldn't help but change their faces slightly.

Although the old man's temper is very good compared to other old antiques, he is not angry, so do you really think that Prince Ma only has three eyes? I remember that in that special period, young red generals pointed at him under the name of breaking the four old ones, and wanted to take people out to criticize and fight, saying that the old man only admits that he is an actor and sings all the cultural dregs. In the future, he would let him go by by changing to a model opera. But he relied on the kung fu he had learned in his early years and beat more than a dozen fully armed young red generals out, and then ran into Yangcheng Lake and hid for more than two years until the limelight of this matter was completely over.

Yang Yi is still talking about Kunqu opera. In the eyes of several people who are familiar with the temperament of the old man, even if it cannot be called a tiger's beard, he is still self-extinguished.

However, this time, it may be the situation of Kunqu or his own opera troupe that touched the old man. In short, Chang Hongqu did not get angry directly, but stared at the boy for a long time, and then sneered: "You don't have to provoke me. My old man is old and not so angry, so he won't be able to use this trick."

Just when Yang Yi couldn't help feeling disappointed, he continued, "But what you said is reasonable. For something, especially Kunqu opera and other things that are old in the eyes of you young people, if you want to pass on it, someone must first be willing to watch it."

The boy couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "So, did you agree?"
