Reborn Cultural Empire

360. Set up the stage with heart and sing well

Meng Chang was easy to talk to. Although he could not intervene in the Jiang family's core affairs, Jiang Jianmo's care and his relationship with the Luo family still let him know something vaguely.Of course, since he was born in an ordinary family, since he is advancing within the system, he can only rely on the help of his wife's family, so he will not disobey the old lady on the surface, but as a key construction project in the district, let's take care of Xizhi Side, the problem is not big.

After receiving a call from Rogo for help, they simply dispatched a patrol team from the district public security bureau and the town police station, with a total of 80 people dispatched urgently to maintain order.

When the police call was received, the patrol team was fine, but the people in the town police station were all beaming with joy.In any other place, these people would definitely not be so happy, but no one would like to go to Xizhi.Although they are not bastards, but they have a little extra money, of course no one refuses, and Xizhi, which used to be the most troublesome and controlled by clan forces, has recently become more and more model units jointly established by the police and the people. The trend, the end of the school of fish and water.

Taking money to do things, and hearing that there is a need over there, these people of course dispatched without saying a word.The location of the police station does not need to be much closer to Xizhi than the District Public Security Bureau, but it only took half the time for the patrol team to arrive at the ancient town.

As soon as they arrived, more than 30 people were all dumbfounded. They used to say that there are many people in Huaxia, and there are many people in Huaxia, but they didn't have any intuitive feelings.I saw the crowds of people in the Capital City on TV, but I didn't think much of it because I wasn't there.

But the crowd in front of them made these little policemen hesitate. Some old policemen looked at the deputy director who led the team: "Wang Suo, there are so many people here, it won't work for us to go up. How about we go up first?" Wait for colleagues in the bureau to see how the arrangements are made."

Before he finished speaking, he ate the bull's-eye of his deputy: "Old Li, you are a cunning head, there are so many people now, so hurry up and carry out the task for me. In case the people in the bureau haven't come yet, here's If something goes wrong, the higher-ups will look for that? Those in the patrol team, or us? Besides, you don’t take advantage of this side, oh, if you have sweetness, you will rush forward, and if you have trouble, you will hide... Hurry up and give me the whole team, and listen to my assignment."

In fact, judging from the posture of Deputy Director Wang, there were still some words that were not scolding, but when he glanced at it, he saw the camera lens next to him, so he stopped talking and started to assign tasks.

Just a little after 08:30, the ancient town was already full of reporters, and the media felt as if they had been bloodied. Since the cameras entered the ancient town, they had no intention of stopping.

There is no other reason. In 98, there was just a boom in tourism consumption in China.But at this time, most people go to the capital to climb the Great Wall to see the maple leaves, or go to the southernmost island to see the sea, or run to the five famous mountains.Ancient town tourism is generally spread in the circle of slightly more experienced donkey friends, and ordinary families don't know much about it.

However, Yangyi Culture's promotional campaign has made many people realize that Lu Xun's "Social Opera" and Dai Wangshu's "Rain Lane" are real things. It turns out that the Jiangnan water town in the dream is not only in the dream, but also It is not far from oneself.

In addition to those well-planned advertisements, even the advertisements placed in newspapers in Jiangnan Province and even surrounding provinces and cities are all color page pictorials printed with their own funds. In this era when TV commercials are still extremely lacking in creativity, the impact caused is naturally conceivable.

"Hey, Xiaoyi, let's meet again. Now I can't call you Xiaoyi casually. You are a celebrity in our Yuezhou. I heard that the Writers Association intends to recruit you?" Meng Chang and Yang Yi He didn't meet many times, but he obviously had an unusual affection for this unusual kid. As soon as he got out of the car, he had just greeted several elders from clans in the ancient town, and immediately fixed his eyes on the old man who was hiding in the old man's pile. Yang Yi.

Yang Yi hurried over to meet Meng Chang. After Jiang Jianmo left, his foundation in Yuezhou—actually, the Xizhi tourist area was to be taken care of by the young deputy secretary of the district committee. No wonder.However, apart from that, he really didn't know much about Meng Chang.

"What's the matter, Brother Meng is really joking. Anyway, I haven't received the news from the Writers Association." Yang Yi smiled innocently and invited people to the rostrum of the theater.The staff members behind Meng Chang were not the ones who followed him to Xizhi half a year ago, so seeing Yang Yi and his secretary looking familiar, they were still wondering whose family this is?Why do you look familiar?

But after hearing about the Writers' Association, people who pay a little attention to the local news suddenly recognized Yang Yi's identity.

A group of people walked towards the theatre, first of all were Meng Chang and several prominent figures in the town, and the elders of the two major surnames were by his side, and the one closest to him was Yang Tianying, Yang Yi's second uncle. He is in high spirits, and his head of white hair is full of energy.Yang Tianying was by Meng Chang's side, and she didn't forget to look at Yang Yi on the other side. If it wasn't for his nephew and grandson, he wouldn't be here now.

The position on the other side of Meng Chang was occupied by Yang Yi, and even his secretary was hanging behind Yang Yi, following closely at every step.

Hearing the reborn man's laughter, Meng Chang thought it was a child with a tender skin and pretending to be modest, so he smiled heartily and said, "I'm too embarrassed to admit it? It's an honor, what's the matter?"

But the fact is that Yang Yi really didn't receive the invitation from the Writers Association, or rather, the written invitation letter from the Writers Association was thrown into the corner by Ji Tangdan angrily.For this matter, the two elders of Ji's family still had a dispute. The old lady thought that Yang Yi was no longer a child, and he had to decide this matter for himself. There were also people who were blowing unhealthy trends, so they were suppressed in the end.

According to his words, it is a place where a group of people gossip. Going there is beneficial and harmless. He is responsible for the students.

Yang Yi naturally didn't know the inside story, but now hearing what Meng Chang said, he thought he knew something inside, so he smiled and didn't answer.However, he had already made up his mind in his heart, no matter what the Writers Association Federation of Literary and Art Circles, he would just reject them all at that time, but he didn't know that his teacher had already made this decision for him.

"Today, there are enough people." I haven't seen you for half a year, and Meng Chang's decree lines on both sides of his nose seem to have deepened. Even if he smiled very heartily, it should be added to this three-dimensional appearance. Somewhat majestic: "It is usually said that our country has a large population and a large market, so I don't feel much about it. But when I saw it today, oh, I was shocked. Looking at this posture, your Yangyi Culture is going to make a high profile again Already."

Yang Yi was not humble this time. What he wanted to see the most was that Yang Yi's culture was high-profile, but he, Su Wan and others should not attract too much attention.

"Fortunately, at this time of year, it's just about the eyeball effect. If people don't know about you, there won't be anything to talk about later. Of course, the specific effect will depend on the end of today's event. "

Meng Chang said "Yes", and before he got under the rostrum of the theatre, he heard a few soft voices, and his eyes lit up: "Hey, there is also the stage of the Qujia Troupe? I heard that their The troupe master was trained by Mr. Yu Zhenfei's disciples, he is a descendant of another generation, and now he doesn't sing anymore, but there are still a few good actors in it."

This time, not only Yang Yi, but even the group of clan elders admired everyone—this district secretary seemed to be halfway through his thirties, but he was actually very clear about certain old things. This is what is in the stomach.

"Hehe, the main purpose is to refresh the tourists. In fact, they are not the main force on the stage today." Yang Yi saw Meng Chang tilting his head and looked over with interest. He was obviously waiting for the next article, but he didn't say anything. Clearly: "Brother Meng will see for himself later, I can't explain clearly, you don't understand, you think I'm ruining the quintessence of the country."

Meng Chang smiled dumbly: "Oh, you kid, you are still playing tricks on me. Okay, let me see what you have messed up."

A group of people wandered from the head of the town to the end of the town. Meng Chang was obviously shocked by the changes in Xi Zhi.

Yes, it was shock, that kind of astonished emotion, which was clearly expressed on Meng Chang's face, without the slightest concealment.

In fact, strictly speaking, Xizhi has not changed much, and it was the same in the first place. How much change can protective repairs and maintenance make?However, thanks to the joint efforts of the professors of historical architecture departments in several universities, Xizhi has changed. It has not become more modern, but on the contrary, it seems to be getting farther and farther away from this modern civilized society, and the smog of the water town has faded away. Finally, what appeared before people's eyes seemed to be the picture scroll in the Qingming Riverside Picture coming to life.

"Very good, very good." Meng Chang kept admiring, looking excited.

Regardless of the group of old people around them, they were all the main force involved in the repair and maintenance, but the job of explaining the details to Meng Chang still fell on Yang Yi.Because everything here now comes from his ideas and ideas, so it is particularly clear when talking about it: "Brother Meng, you have seen that this way, there are all kinds of business types and numbers for self-employed households. Unified planning, try to achieve an even distribution of tourism resources. And after a quarter, we will make fine adjustments according to the specific income and tax payment situation, in short, we will follow the path of "tourism in Huaxi Village."

"Okay, very good. This is a good idea. Only when everyone is prosperous together can we form a good cycle of development." Meng Chang nodded, and he also appreciated and agreed with Yang Yi's concept: "The idea is very good, and As far as what I see now, you have indeed come true. With this kind of confidence and drive, Xizhi Ancient Town will definitely become our Yuezhou tourism brand."

After the inspection, everyone went back to the stage. The police, the employees of Yangyi Tourism, and the voluntary personnel assigned by the town were already busy downstairs.

Compared with these busy people, there were more crowds looking around with strange faces, and many of them had gathered around the theater, holding up their cameras in great excitement.Many of these tourists are obviously coming to this ancient style for the first time, as if they were painted in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River that was moved down.Therefore, whether it is the wooden railing on the veranda, the stone lion next to the steps of the small pier, or the small flag at the entrance of some special stores, they must be captured constantly.

At the same time, there were more people coming in from the entrance of the town, and the originally quiet and remote water town suddenly became bustling.

An hour has passed, 09:30, which is the expected time for the opening ceremony.At this time, many tourists spread word of mouth and already knew that there would be an event to be held soon.

Leaders take the stage, which is a must for every ribbon-cutting event.However, Meng Chang is also a person who is knowledgeable and interesting. He knows that in such an occasion, the more talkative he is, the more people in the audience don’t say anything, but he is really annoyed to death. Go down", such a boo.

"Okay, that's all I want to say, and it's meaningless to talk nonsense. In short, the folks of Xizhi welcome all the guests from all over the world. I hope you all have a good time and have a good time."

Meng Chang waved his hand with a smile, and retreated among the leaders of the group. Since the backbone of the group at this moment only had these two sentences, how could the rest of them dare to say more than him?Simply stop talking.In this way, Yang Yi and the old people had planned for a long time, and the one hour specially set aside, turned out to be four to five ten minutes left.

Since the leaders are so considerate, then there is no need to say more, just go to the troupe directly.

The three-stringed chord sounded together, and the langchao-like human voice below it suddenly quieted down. Some fanciers from other dramas heard the sound and asked each other what kind of instrument it was.

Unlike the musical instruments in other operas, Kunqu Opera, which has been declining day by day, is not known by later generations, with pipa and sudi as the main instruments, but Sanxian.It’s just that the three-stringed accompaniment skills have not been well passed down from generation to generation, so except for a few theater troupes, and some major students brought by some old seniors in the modern music academy, others have gradually turned to pipa and Su Di. , Sheng, Erhu and so on.

Together with silk and bamboo, it is followed by the delicate and mellow Shuimo tune, one tone and three rhymes, but amidst all kinds of tenderness, you can hear a bit of the clarity and mellowness of Peking Opera.This is the performance of Yun Shuiyue, the number one dan character in the Qujia class.

Yang Yi paid attention to the surroundings of the stage, many old people or Liyuan fanciers shook their heads and were intoxicated, obviously they were very fond of listening to the music.But more people, after going through the initial freshness, one by one became a little less focused.

There are many reasons for this phenomenon. If we analyze them one by one, I am afraid that even if sociologists, psychologists, philosophers, and cultural scientists from all over the country gather together, it will be difficult to really explain clearly.

But the reason is precisely the least important. As Yang Yilai, who has already made up his mind, he only needs to know how to change this situation, rather than knowing why this situation exists.

That's why he gave the backstage a wink, and the song "Floating Life and Three Dreams" was about to finish, but the tone in the backstage changed, and he actually brought on some fast-paced martial arts style.

Hey, what kind of battle is this?Meng Chang's curiosity was instantly aroused.

It should be said that at this time, Jin Yong's martial arts novels are still widely recognized, and there is no criticism from various angles after the grassroots of the Internet in later generations.In 83, tvbshe carving was the first, and the soundtracks in many martial arts dramas were considered to be classics that were sung for a while. Many middle-aged people in their 40s and [-]s would shake their cattail fans and hum a few words to the TV soundtrack after dinner.

So with this tune, many people had the same expressions on their faces as Meng Chang, with obvious freshness, stretching their necks and aiming at the stage.

Among these people, the elders like Yang Yi's uncle and grandpa must not be included. To them, this thing is a bit nondescript.But in fact, many traditional cultural circles that have become niche, such as Kunqu opera, clay figurines, shadow puppetry, and more similar things, have reflected on it. It is authentic, not so obsessed with keeping orthodox, and can work harder on the spread of skills and public acceptance, and maybe there will be no sad feeling that "the excellent traditional culture of China in the past has become more and more scarce".

Why is it said that later generations are an era where entertainment is paramount?Are ordinary people really vulgar and hopeless?This proposition is obviously wrong, and God cannot despise worldly happiness. This sentence has been circulated in the Western world for a long time, and no matter how much correctness is contained in it, it is recognized by many people, and this is enough.

So even though Yang Yi has devoted most of his energy to the "entertainment and culture industry" such as animation and popular online reading since his rebirth, this is the best way he can think of so far to make Huaxia The best way to preserve more of the culture.

Therefore, he welcomes the arrival of the Qu family troupe, and he also agrees with the generous theater money given by his uncle. The whole troupe is treated with courtesy from top to bottom.

But the protagonists on the stage today are not them, but the girls who are majors invited from colleges and universities such as Shanghai Opera, Yuezhou Academy of Arts, and Yuezhou Media.What these people have learned in their respective schools may not be as comprehensive as that of traditional theater troupes, but they also have their strengths, that is, they are more able to accept new things, and they are more able to deal with Yang Yi's "entertainment spirit". comprehend.

So I saw actors in orthodox attire leaving the stage one by one, only to see three or five young girls rushing up.These girls are different from the previous ones, there is almost no make-up, not to mention hanging eye corners, cloud patches, and even hua powder and rouge, they only use pink, white and peach red, which is an out-and-out clear water and light makeup .

But with just this attire with a little powder and daisy on it, it actually looks like a lotus like a face and a willow like an eyebrow.
