187. Industry rectification triggered by a cross talk
Su Budong: First of all, as an actor, you must be an expert. For example, those who sing Peking Opera in the Beijing Peking Opera Company, even those who perform minor roles, have studied in drama schools for seven years.
Fan Ming: Then there’s no way he can’t be a bit player for seven years.
Su Butong: He can only play a small role after graduation.
Fan Ming: This is true.
Su Butong: You go and sing the lead role in the middle of the room. The one who pulls the curtain also learned from the drama school.
Fan Ming: Yes.
Su Budong: If today, the Peking Opera Theater in Beijing has no people, and it recruits people again, and recruits a group of people from various units from the society, and enriches them into the Peking Opera Theatre, then everyone will think, ah, these people are not
He has never learned to sing.
Fan Ming: Yes.
Su Butong: But when it comes to cross talk, everyone ignores this point. In fact, cross talk pays more attention to basic skills.
Fan Ming: Oh.
Su Butong: I should have started learning when I was seven or eight years old. I became an apprentice when I was eighteen or nineteen years old. I followed the master on the stage. When I was in my twenties, I gradually gained experience, and when I was in my thirties, I matured.
Period. There is such a process. However, 95% of the crosstalk actors in China's crosstalk industry were engaged in other jobs before the age of twenty-five and had never learned crosstalk.
Fan Ming: Yes.
Su Butong: But this is very simple. We have done statistics before, and we have a list, but because it hurts people too much, we can’t recite it. We did the calculations, we did the calculations, most of them are cooks, and most of them are in the catering industry.
Fan Ming: Yes, in the canteens of each unit.
Su Butong: There are many cooks, noodle workers, stir-fry workers, and halal restaurant workers. There are many people who work in various factories. There are also house management stations, bricklayers, and traffic policemen. There are too many. Three hundred and sixty lines, where?
All lines are available.
Fan Ming: Yes.
Su Butong: They are all people who couldn't make it in that industry and switched to our industry. Are you thinking about whether he is good or not?
Fan Ming: The threshold for this industry is too low.
……………………
The group of people below, most of whom Su Butong said were from the 360th line of work, thought that this guy was too shady. They all put down their chopsticks, wanting to see what other shocking things this guy could say.
Su Butong: On the other hand, many actors and comedians became famous before they even learned how to do it. Did you know that?
Fan Ming: It’s too early to become famous.
Su Butong: If you turn your back and let him learn again, he can't make up his mind anymore. He is already an artist.
Fan Ming: Yes.
Su Butong: The more reason is the internal problems in our cross talk community.
Fan Ming: What’s the problem?
Su Butong: First of all, someone said that abandoning the traditional cross talk is worth 1,400 big mouths. Really, a cross talk master once said that we would rather have an imperfect new one than a perfect one.
Old man, this is confusion, and the ignorant are fearless!
Fan Ming:Ah
Su Budong: From the end of the Qing Dynasty to now, for more than a hundred years, so many old gentlemen have refined all the techniques that can make jokes in the Chinese language and put them here. No matter what jokes you say, they can be found here for you.
Come out, you are using this method, you are using this method.
Fan Ming: Yes.
Su Butong: If there is something ready-made, you don’t use it. You have to throw it away. Can you do it alone with the wisdom of an old gentleman who has been doing it for more than a hundred years?
Fan Ming: Yes.
Su Butong: You don’t have such great abilities. For example, if you are a chef cooking, you can invent new dishes, but at least you have to know what a frying spoon is and which is a colander. If you use a spit bucket to cook and say it is an innovation, then damn it
Who dares to eat it?
Fan Ming: That’s true.
Su Butong: This group of ignorant crosstalk actors and incompetent artists should bear the greatest responsibility for the current embarrassing situation of crosstalk. It’s not me gnashing my teeth and shouting hoarse. I want crosstalk to be good, I love crosstalk, who the hell loves me!
………………
After a cross talk, the most fearful thing is that the audience is quiet. The person invited by the Xingyi Sect has thought about it. This Su Butong is obviously talking about cross talk, but in fact he is talking about the shortcomings of cross talk now.
Well. Anyway, this is my junior uncle. What is this called in the martial arts world? It’s called training. Do you understand training? The elders love you when they beat you and scold you, so Su Butong should take more care of these juniors who talk about cross talk.
Only then can I speak out in public some of the experiences I usually ponder!
Martial arts practitioners are not afraid of you pointing out shortcomings in front of drums, drums, gongs, and gongs, but they are afraid of holding back. How many good things are left behind by the previous generation for fear that they will be lost if they are passed on to the young and starve to death? There are many lessons in this regard, so they think
What Su Butong said hit the nail on the head.
Shilinhou stood up and asked the people present in the cross talk sect: "Today is a happy day for my master to accept his disciples. This year, as my junior brother just said, it is the 157th anniversary of the birth of the founder of the cross talk sect, Mr. Be Not Afraid of Being Poor. I
Junior brother is young and his words offended everyone. I apologize to the old and young men for him. I laughed at the beginning of this cross talk, but I couldn’t laugh at the end. Why? Because of everything my junior brother said.
It makes sense. Our generation is getting older, but cross talk still needs to move forward. How to move forward? First of all, the skills passed down from our ancestors cannot be lost! When it comes to learning to sing, you have to work hard when singing. What kind of work is done?
You must be able to use the ground as paper and sand as ink, write words with your right hand, and hit the bamboo board with your left hand to sing Taiping lyrics! Nowadays, some people feel like they have reached heaven after knowing a few Taiping lyrics, and they feel like they can perform on stage after knowing a few jingles.
?No, the pursuit of art is endless."
Marquis Shilin took a look at the venue, and then continued: "Don't think that what my junior brother said just now is all alarmist. He is using cross talk to tell everyone what to do. I am old, and there are some things I don't want to deal with.
, I don’t want to care about it anymore, thinking about passing on my craft, even if it doesn’t disgrace my ancestors. But after listening to this cross talk just now, I feel a little ashamed, my ideological consciousness is not as high as that of my junior brother, what he thought
It is not about my sect, but about the unity and development of crosstalk as a whole. So I would like to ask all the old and young men of Jinmen to be witnesses, starting from me, Marquis Shilin, to set an example."
Everyone was a little stunned after hearing this. What kind of example would Marquis Shilin set?
"Within three months from now on, everyone will gather their students together and teach them to learn their own subjects. Those who do not learn and make progress will be expelled from the school! One year later, there will be an examination. Those who fail the examination, three
Take the exam again in a month. If you still fail, you will be expelled! From now on, when you get started, you will learn morals first, then skills, two years of observation, and one year of apprenticeship. If you don't want to, we won't force you!"
Marquis Shilin said something very serious, and everyone's expressions changed, especially the disciples and grandsons of Marquis Shilin. As soon as Marquis Shilin said these words, everyone wailed.
Su Budong's grandson is also a bad person. He was afraid that there would be something fishy about being disrespectful in the exam, so he got up and complained: "Senior brother, let me interrupt. Now that I am senior here, I also have to fulfill my responsibilities as an elder. I
I think we should take the lead in setting up an examination committee to specifically check the four subjects of cross talk actors. In addition to homework, there should also be an examination of the artistic ethics of artists..."
Marquis Shilin nodded: "Junior brother should consider it properly..."
The people below are going crazy, you are too grandson, you don't want to give us a way to survive.
Su Butong didn't care. Who could take the exam now anyway? He was happy to make things difficult for these people.
"Junior brother, senior brother is getting older, why don't you take the lead in this work?"
"Ah?" Su Butong never expected that he would bear the blame.
"I'm also busy on weekdays, so I'm afraid I won't live up to my senior brother's expectations." Su Butong declined quickly.
"I think except for you who can convince others about this, I'm afraid others will gossip if they come forward. Senior brother is old and really has limited energy..." Marquis Shilin had his own considerations, and he didn't want Su Butong to bear the burden.
The pot, on the contrary, gave Subudong an authority.
When Su Butong heard this, he could no longer refuse. If he had caused the trouble, he would have to wipe his own ass. Fortunately, he also knew how to bring in a few more people to support him, and said, "Then I won't refuse. Anyway, I'll just wipe it out."
Today, years later, we are still taking exams here, and those who pass will be awarded cross-talk certificates. Those who fail, I'm sorry, please. It's a shameful thing to say, if you still fail, don't blame me for cleaning up the house when the time comes.
"
The invited Jinmen celebrities watched such a good show and felt that something was missing, so they went back and wrote a micro-novel based on this for the newspaper: "Strange People and Strange Events", hiding the real characters from what they saw today.
The name was published in the newspaper, which aroused heated discussions among many Jinmen folk art lovers.
"This Shi Linhou sect is really talented. He really dares to criticize the ugliness of the industry."
"Hey, cross talk, it was fun to listen to it in teahouses in the past, what the hell is that thing on TV now!"
"If it's like what they say, the spring of cross talk will come back again."
An internal rectification of the industry has officially begun.
This group of people, who were the disciples of Subudong, were so unlucky that they regretted it a little. Some even scolded Zhu Li and Luan Gang countless times in private: "If these two wicked things hadn't started trouble, we would have suffered."
Chapter completed!
