Entertainment: Reborn as a composer, dominating the entertainment industry

Chapter 54



Shanghai, 8 o'clock.

High-speed rail!

Lingzhou, 12:30.

Chen Xi walked out of the high-speed rail station!

Humid, stuffy!

For the first time in this world, Chen Xi went to another city. Everywhere was familiar and unfamiliar to him. Since he had to come, he would just let it go.

Chen Xi did not slack off along the way. He searched for information about Xiao Shiqing and learned about the history of opera development. He had prepared for the accidental discovery of Yuan'an County and the experience of writing"Chi Ling". It was inevitable that Mr. Xiao would ask some questions when they met. But no matter how well prepared he was, it was hard to believe that he could write"Chi Ling" with his 27-year-old experience and his status as a layman in opera.

"Chen Xi!"

"Chen Xi!!"

""Chen Xi!!!"

Suddenly, in front of a large crowd, the sound of Chen Xi resounded through his ears like thunder!

A young man in a light blue striped shirt, about the same age as himself, shouted loudly, waving a sign in his hand with scribbled words on it, Chen Xi!

Chen Xi hurriedly walked towards the sign, not daring to respond in advance. He had been low-key all his life, and was still low-key in this life. It was really embarrassing to be called like that by this social bull!

"Hello, I'm Chen Xi."

Chang Yunxin, who was holding the sign, took a look at Chen Xi and found him pleasing to the eye.

"Brother Chen, let's go this way."

The parking lot is Su Linger's BMW 5X!

Chang Yunxin opened the door of the back seat, and a puff of cold air came out. It should be that the car was parked here without turning off the engine and the air conditioner was always on.

"Brother Chen, please get in the car first!"

Master said personally that we should be polite to others.

Chen Xi looked at the back door that was opened and saw that he was the only one in the car.

"Can I sit in the front passenger seat?"

Chang Yunxin heard Chen Xi's request and immediately closed the back door and went to pull the front passenger door. Chen Xi opened the door first and sat in.

It's so cold!!!

Chang Yunxin also felt so cold when he sat in the driver's seat.

"Brother Chen, you must be thirsty, what do you want to drink?"

There was a bottle of mineral water and two kinds of drinks in the car.

Chen Xi picked up a bottle of water.

"Thank you!"

The uncle had told us not to ask around and not to talk nonsense.

So the two of them, one out of respect for the teacher and the other out of embarrassment, froze all the way to the theater.

……

Flying eaves, green tiles, carved railings, and pillars.

This style is completely incompatible with the modern times, showing the years and recording the ups and downs.

Chen Xi looked at the theater in front of him. How many opera artists had stood on the stage before, and how many people are left now to resist the erosion of time.

This theater remembers the glory and loneliness, but it can't speak!

The car stopped at the corner door. Ning Jing, Su Linger, and Guo Hong were already waiting at the door.

Chen Xi quickly opened the car door and got out of the car, saying hello to the three people. Chang Yunxin also quickly turned off the air conditioner and got out of the car to warm up for a while.

"Uncle, I brought the person back to you."

"Okay, pull over."

……

Ning Jing took the lead, and the four of them walked into the theater together.

Su Ling'er was very sensible and did not ask about the song. She also acted as a tour guide, introducing things as they walked.

On the big stone at the entrance, there were three big red characters.

Nian'an Society.

The yard is not big and bare, with wing rooms on the east and west. In front is a gatehouse. After passing through the corridor, you enter the main hall. The space becomes wider and there are more rooms.

After entering the main hall, Guo Hong and Su Ling'er went back to their rooms, and Ning Jing took Chen Xi to see the master alone.

Chen Xi didn't understand the layout of the theater very well. Looking at the largest building in front, thinking that Mr. Xiao should live here, he began to get nervous.

He could only do what Director He said. Ask whatever he wants and say whatever he wants. If it doesn't work, he will just bear it.

"Chen Xi, thank you for making me come all the way here."

"Sister Ningjing, it's okay, I just want to go out and relax."

Ningjing smiled and stopped being polite.

"Let's go, the place in front is where my master lives."

Pushing open the door of the main hall, Xiao Shiqing dressed neatly and sat on the armchair in the living room. Seeing Ning Jing bringing Chen Xi in, he supported himself with the crutches beside him and slowly stood up.

Ning Jing hurriedly ran forward and supported the master.

Chen Xi also took two quick steps.

"Hello, Senior Xiao, I am Chen Xi."

Chen looked at Xiao Shiqing, who was thin and thin, with traces of time on his face, long hair, tied up high, and a gray beard.

Xiao Shiqing also looked at Chen Xi in front of him, and he was really as Jing'er said, young!

""Sit, sit!"

Xiao Shiqing pointed to the armchair next to the small tea table. Ning Jing winked at Chen Xi,"Hurry up and sit down!"

Chen Xi hurried to sit on the armchair next to him. Seeing Chen Xi sitting down, Xiao Yuanpeng sat down.

After helping the master sit down, Ning Jing went to make tea next to him.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Hearing Mr. Xiao's question, Chen Xi quickly answered,

"I had a box lunch on the high-speed train."

"Normally, when guests come, food should be prepared, but Jing'er won't let me do it."

Chen Xi wanted to keep it a secret, and Ning Jing didn't want to be too formal. The master ate very little, so it was no problem for Chen Xi to go hungry.

Chen Xi quickly replied,"Senior Xiao, you are too polite. Sister Ning Jing and I are friends. It's okay."

Xiao Shiqing smiled slightly and turned the topic to opera."Opera has been passed down for thousands of years. It is something from our ancestors. Some people think that it should be authentic. Changing it randomly is a great rebellion!"

When Chen Xi heard this, he thought to himself, it's over. He remembered the knowledge he had memorized on the high-speed rail last night and what Director He said about bearing more.

"Yes, Senior Xiao, opera first appeared in the pre-Qin Dynasty and reached its peak in the Ming Dynasty. It carries the wisdom of several generations of actors and is the crystallization of Chinese culture for thousands of years. It should not be changed at will."

Ningjing brought the brewed tea over and happened to hear what Chen Xi said. She looked at him in surprise. Such a well-reasoned statement actually came from Chen Xi's mouth?

Looking at Chen Xi who did not refute, Senior Xiao smiled and nodded.

"Yes, things that have been passed down for generations, but no one listens to them now. What do you think of my stage?"

Chen Xi's brain was working frantically. He had already observed it in the car just now, and he looked at it carefully again after getting off the car.

The theater building has flying eaves and corners, and the Hui style structure is very beautiful.

"Senior Xiao, judging from the structure of your Wanniantai, it should be from the Ming Dynasty, but the carvings on the pillars don’t look right."

Xiao Shiqing became interested,"Oh? How come?"

Chen Xi said slowly,"The pillars and carvings should have been renovated later, but the Ming Dynasty theater building has Qing Dynasty dragons painted on it. It’s probably because the carving master didn’t understand it very well." Xiao

Shiqing glanced at Ning Jing, then at Chen Xi,"Hahaha, I underestimated you!"

Ning Jing blushed. She paid other companies to sponsor the theater building! She always thought that her master didn’t know, but it seemed that her master had known it for a long time. Chen

Xi also blushed a little.

In his previous life, he loved reading history, but he really didn’t understand opera. The ability to answer these questions was all thanks to the information he looked up in the library some time ago, and the cramming on the high-speed rail last night and today. Fortunately, he passed.

In the face of Xiao Shiqing’s praise, Chen Xi quickly responded in a low-key manner,

"Senior Xiao, you are too kind."

Xiao Shiqing looked at Chen Xi in front of him, who understood history, opera, and was thoughtful, and nodded thoughtfully.

"My dear friend Chen Xi, your writing of Chi Ling is very good!"

Because the story of Chi Ling is all a big lie, Chen Xi has been practicing silently for a long time.

"Senior Xiao, when I was in school, I liked to read some books about opera. I also often listened to opera, Kunqu Opera, Beijing Opera, and Qin Opera. Later, I accidentally saw a piece of history and was deeply moved. It took me a long time to write this song."

Xiao Shiqing nodded.

Ning Jing was confused. Wasn't it a sudden idea in the recording studio that day? But she didn't expose Chen Xi.

Xiao Shiqing struggled in his heart. When he slowly calmed down, he whispered,

""Jing'er, go to the kitchen and see if the chef has prepared the food. Let me talk to Chen Xiaoyou alone, don't come over, Chen Xiaoyou will come to find you after we finish talking."

Ning Jing was a little surprised. What were they going to talk about without telling her? But seeing the determined look in her master's eyes, she still went to the kitchen, and closed the door before leaving.

Chen Xi thought he had passed the test, but suddenly this situation occurred, and the atmosphere of tension came to his face.

Chen Xi looked at Xiao Shiqing, and was quickly defeated by the other's sharp eyes. Xiao Shiqing's eyes gradually softened.

""Friend Chen, where did you see the story about Yuan'an County?"

Chen Xi had a deep memory of the book, and told Xiao Shiqing the title, publisher, and author.

Xiao Shiqing memorized it silently in his heart.

Then he slowly stood up with the crutches. Chen Xi saw it and hurriedly stood up to help him, but was stopped by Xiao Shiqing who stretched out his hand.

Chen Xi could only stand in front of Xiao Shiqing awkwardly, not knowing whether to help or not!

Xiao Shiqing stood firm, slowly walked towards Chen Xi, bent down and lowered his head. When Chen Xi saw this scene, he didn't think about it, and hurried forward to help Xiao Lao sit down slowly.

Xiao Lao sat down.

Chen Xi stood by and didn't dare to move.

This sudden scene shocked Chen Xi and he was at a loss.

Xiao Shiqing pondered for a moment.

Slowly took off the black gloves he had been wearing on his left hand!
