Chapter 694 Walking on Thin Ice

Jiang Yang listened to the old man's words while he was busy.

only--

The more Jiang Yang listened, the more a story emerged in his mind.

"Wotou Guild Hall".

This is a very classic drama.

How classic is it?

Lao Guo, who speaks cross talk, has organized a cross-border drama with his disciples and grandchildren, and arranged a drama that fans claim will save the drama industry. This drama is called "Wotou Guild Hall".

certainly.

The "Wotou Guild Hall" in Jiang Yang's memory is the People's Art version.

He accidentally found it on the Cheers website and read it with relish.

later.

He heard that Lao Guo was rewriting this drama, so he went to review the old drama and learn something new.

Now Mr. Hong is talking about Maitreya Buddha and fighting crickets. There are similar scenes in the play, which evoked Jiang Yang's memories.

This play probably says that before the liberation, there was a courtyard in the alleys of Kyoto called Wotou Guild Hall. Four families lived in it. One sold stewed pork; one sold dog skin plaster; Liquor; there is also a former landlord who played a trick when selling the house to Yuan Datou and was able to live in a room for free for a long time in the Wotou Guild Hall. What the former landlord liked most was fighting crickets and listening to Yuan Datou talk to Lu. Boiled and dog-skin plasters are used to collect rent.

The former landlord also liked to name Cricket after the warlord.

besides--

The two families of Luzhuo and Dog Skin Plaster also liked to fight. One hung a Jesus on the door, and the other hung a Maitreya Buddha. In the end, Yuan Datou was so forced that he invited Mr. Guan to come over and put them in the yard to calm the scene.

"...The way they play is so authentic."

Just as Mr. Hong continued to speak and Jiang Yang was still reminiscing, Wu Xiu and Hong Shan came in.

"dad."

Hong Shan interrupted his old man, "Why are you blowing here again?"

Hong Shan is really afraid of his old man now.

If he were to vote for the most annoying person in the entire alley, his old man would definitely be far ahead.

It's okay that this makes the old ladies hate him. Anyway, he already has a wife, so he doesn't have to worry about the aunts gossiping. But if he wants to get a bad rap from his boss, it's really hard for Hong Shan to keep his head up and be a good person in the band, because the bassist is in Bands are inherently bad people: if the drummer plays wrongly, he can just glare at the bassist angrily; if the guitarist plays wrongly, he can just glare at the bassist angrily.

He hoped that his old father would be more considerate of the bass player's walking on thin ice.

Then--

He asked Mr. Hong to give up the bench and said, "Let me sit for a while. Your blood sugar is high. Please walk more."

Wu Xiu took the ruler from Huo Xiu's hand and helped them measure it, while discussing the matter with Jiang Yang.

Teacher Wen has withdrawn from the management of the drama troupe and is only a small shareholder. Shitou is currently the director of the drama troupe and is responsible for the administration of the drama troupe. Wu Xiu is the deputy director of the drama troupe and is also responsible for actor training.

This is what Wu Xiu is good at.

Wu Xiu was currently working on the play "This Man Came from the Earth". When he first got this book, he was really shocked. He turned around and took this book to fool the tea girl, which was a way to practice his deception skills.

result--

He bought two more boxes of tea.

Today I brought a box to Jiang Yang.

certainly.

He didn't come here specially to deliver tea.

He had something to discuss with Jiang Yang about actor training.

Now the drama troupe has three plays, "Birdman", "Twelve Angry Men" and "Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land", which are of very high quality. Anyone who watches them has to give a thumbs up and say "Jiang Yang’s book is so damn good.”

but--

The actor's hips are stretched a bit.

Although Jiang Yang hired a few veteran actors, they couldn't do three dramas in a row. In addition, Wu Xiu had to rehearse "This Man" and removed some actors with good acting skills. Now the troupe is casting actors in the B corner. There is a shortage of resources.

Wu Xiu, as the person in charge of this aspect, has already begun to establish a repertory theater actor training program, but this work will not be accomplished overnight. Moreover, Wu Xiu was only a director before and was not very good at this aspect.

He was a little worried.

At this moment, Wu Xiu thought of his old club, Jingyi.

As a top drama art palace, Beijing Performing Arts Center is full of talents and has a mature talent training system. The key is that they have launched a training class for performance students to recruit professional artistic talents with certain experience in society for training. Although this training class is mainly for Beijing Performing Arts Group It was for selecting talents, but Wu Xiu felt that there was no possibility of cooperation.

If Wu Xiu was not qualified, he would have gone to his old leader.

The old leader originally refused to agree, but he couldn't handle it. Wu Xiu was an old Beijing artist, and he and the old leader were from the same compound. After his shameless nudges, the old leader relented, saying that it was not impossible to cooperate, but cooperation It was mutually beneficial for both parties. As a public institution, Jingyi didn't care about training fees or anything like that, but they cared about Jiang Yang's books.

This is also the only thing Jiang Yang and his repertory troupe can come up with.

Good books are hard to come by.

Jiangyang Repertory Theater suddenly appeared with classic and tried-and-tested novels, which the old leaders still found very rare. Not to mention the copies of "Twelve Angry Men" and "Secret Love", the copy of "Birdman" is extremely rare among senior leaders.

Now Kyoto is advocating "Watch a good show in Kyoto".

Jingyi also produced a play with a Beijing flavor, but Birdman overshadowed it. In line with the principle of letting the other party join if they can't beat it, the old leader said that as long as Jiang Yang comes out with the script, they will Can collaborate on actor training. The terms of this cooperation are still very attractive, because all the people taking classes will be old artists who are active in the film and television industry.

so--

Wu Xiu came over today and asked Jiang Yang for his opinion, "You don't have to worry about the share of profit. It's the highest."

Jiang Yang: "Okay."

Wu Xiu was stunned for a moment: "Just, you agreed?"

This is so refreshing.

Jiang Yang: "Is there anything we need to consider?"

Take the book "Birdman" as an example. It was performed in Jiangyang's hometown by top-notch veteran artists in China.

Jiangyang's drama troupe couldn't hire these actors, so they had to make do.

This has become Jiang Yang's regret, that what he presented was not played by the best actor, and the shock value was reduced, and it was not very fun. Now he has the opportunity to let the best actor play it without shortchanging his money. He also trained the actors in the troupe, so of course Jiang Yang was willing.

Wu Xiu gave a thumbs up: "Cowhide!"

The book was so precious that he agreed without saying a word. Wu Xiu felt that Jiang Yang's drama was too pure.

certainly.

Jiangyang also has pure capital.

The big devil bought this courtyard house without blinking an eye and let Jiang Yang play with the wood. Jiang Yang had no worries at all. It was a small investment in a drama, so naturally it was fun to play with.

Wu Xiu was envious.

I don’t know if I can earn one-tenth of the big devil’s money by selling tea.

"What a coincidence."

Jiang Yang put down the ruler: "I just thought of a notebook right now."

He returned to the main room, took out his notebook, went to the yard, and typed out similar fragments of what Mr. Hong had just said.

Wu Xiu took a look.

I don’t know yet whether the plot is good or bad, but it has a strong flavor of Beijing movies.

Pretty cool.

Mr. Hong also took a look, and then couldn't help but wave to his son with a raised eyebrow, "Look, Xiao Jiang changed what I just said into a drama. You still say that I am exaggerating. You have no eyesight."

Mr. Hong felt very proud that he had created a drama through his own chat.

Jiang Yang is also very powerful.

He is indeed his recognized master, idol and senior.

When he dances in the square in the evening, he must tell the old ladies how great he is.
