Chapter 135: Could it be that you are the legendary God of War of the East Wind

Sanyuetian and others didn't know about the netizens' discussion.

So they also didn't know that the netizens' and fans' discussion was becoming more and more abstract.

They came to the backstage under the guidance of the staff and saw the traditional opera actors doing body stretches before going on stage, and greeted them.

The traditional opera actors were a bit excited.

But everyone was old and could hold their breath, just waving and nodding to express their love for Jin Li and others.

Jin Li and others also saw various golden and brilliant props.

Among them, there was a place filled with various facial makeup masks, including red faces, black faces, white faces...

Jin Li also saw a small toy.

This toy can change faces. Press the little person's head down and lift it up, and the little person will immediately change into another facial makeup.

The staff said: "These toys are peripherals sold by the theater. We have developed several styles, including Three Kingdoms style, Journey to the West style, and Dream of the Red Chamber and Water Margin style."

Gu Cheng immediately bought all the styles.

Jin Li said annoyedly: "You're not as fast as me, I also wanted to buy some as gifts to send out."

Gu Cheng said calmly: "I'll split the payment amount with you, just treat it as us sending it together."

Jin Li was a bit eager to move: "Can this work?"

Gu Cheng asked back: "Why not? It saves the trouble of finding gifts, as long as the intention is there."

Jin Li accepted: "Okay!"

On the other side, Qiguan Mingzhu and Chen Lin were looking at the opera costumes.

There are many accessories on the opera costumes, all kinds of them.

Some opera costumes, when matched together, can tell at a glance that this character is rich or expensive, while others can tell at a glance that it is a high official, or clean and honest.

Well, there are also those that are clearly white-bodied or slaves, the opera costumes have nothing, and the sleeves are empty.

Qiguan Mingzhu gently touched the opera costume, and the pearls and silk on it all had their own emphasis.

Traditional opera has been passed down for thousands of years, and every arrangement, every detail, and even every action and tone of the actor has great emphasis.

On the other side, Jin Li saw a traditional opera actor who looked relatively free and asked him: "What do you think is important in this line of work?"

At this time, the program team turned on the live stream again.

【Great, as soon as I come, I can see Little Koi acting as a host!】

【Is this the backstage of the theater? Although it's a bit messy, this mess is a mess that dazzles people.】

【I feel like my eyes are going to be blinded. Are those accessories really made of real gold?】

【It was indeed real gold in the past, not sure now.】

【Combined with the recent gold market... any opera costume is matched with tens of thousands of gold. Don't you feel a lot of pressure when wearing it (crying and laughing)?】

Seeing Jin Li and Gu Cheng, the traditional opera actor immediately straightened his waist and rubbed his pants nervously with his hands.

The backstage must have air conditioning, but he had a lot of sweat on his forehead.

He was a bit stuttering at first, but answered more and more fluently later.

"As, as a traditional opera actor, I, I think physical strength and singing skills are the most basic."

"If the basic skills are not up to standard from a young age, then a play lasting one or two hours cannot be supported at all."

"Even for amateur enthusiasts, if they want to perform a scene, their traditional opera pronunciation can be slightly non-standard, but they absolutely need abundant physical strength to support it."

The staff added on the side: "The cultivation of traditional opera actors is not easy. They have to practice hard from a young age, and pronunciation and other tones must be started from childhood. They also pay attention to performance skills and have requirements for body movements."

"There are many martial arts scenes in traditional opera, like the Wing Chun and Tai Chi that people are familiar with... we will all present them in traditional opera, and they are all real fights."

"If you don't have a few brushes, you can't take it down at all."

"But in recent years, fewer and fewer children are willing to learn traditional opera. Many grassroots troupes are supported by amateur enthusiasts."

Jin Li asked curiously: "If it comes from passion, can a complete stage be built?"

The staff smiled: "In the past, it all relied on passion. Often one person sang a large segment, and there was no complete stage."

"Traditional opera pays attention to Sheng, Dan, Jing, Mo, and Chou. The performance, singing segment, and singing method of each character are different."

"In recent years, our theater has also been seeking a way to make traditional opera develop for a long time, including providing a stage for amateur enthusiasts to perform."

"Like some channels in the theater, we can introduce grassroots troupes formed by amateur enthusiasts to perform in different places every month, but they cannot choose the performance venue."

"Some stages are simple, just randomly set up a board, without curtains, let alone letting the local area provide some props, so even the props are brought by the grassroots troupe itself."

"When people are together, everyone can complete a play, which is not so tiring."

"But because everyone is an amateur enthusiast, work may not be able to be adjusted, so even now, some 'all-rounders' are needed."

"When people are missing, they need to run to the backstage to remove makeup after singing one character, re-apply makeup, and then sing another character."

Gu Cheng asked thoughtfully: "Is this the legendary six-sided warrior?"

The staff nodded: "It's about that reason. Professional traditional opera actors can go to theaters in various places for tours, while amateur enthusiasts can go to various rural areas for tours."

"Don't look at traditional opera as very old, but old also has the advantages of old. Many old people like to listen to traditional opera. We go to sing tunes, and old people can also get spiritual enjoyment and satisfaction."

Jin Li suddenly remembered when she first arrived at the theater in the morning, an old man was playing music with a radio.

It was Huangmei opera, and it sounded quite good.

She couldn't help humming a few sentences: "To save Li Lang, I left my home, who expected to be the champion in the imperial list~"

"The champion, wearing a red robe, the hat is inserted with palace flowers, ah, so fresh~"

The staff immediately followed the snake and said: "Like your humming just now, it is the singing segment in the Yue opera 'The Female Consort'."

"It expresses the theme of the heroine leaving her hometown to save her beloved, but unexpectedly finding that she became the champion."

"This plot is full of drama and twists, showing the heroine's persistence and sacrifice for love, and also reflecting the society at that time, the importance of the imperial examination and the pursuit of fame."

"This segment has been interpreted in many versions, such as the Huangmei opera version, which has been loved by many audiences."

【I can feel the theater's strong desire to survive!】

【Non-genetic inheritance is indeed not easy, the ancestors' things cannot be lost.】

【Last week, a small theater was closed down here, and several old people cried at the door...】

Seeing Jin Li, Qiguan Mingzhu, and Sanyuetian and others listening carefully, looking like they were very interested in traditional opera.

So he continued to speak, "If you are interested, the theater sincerely invites you—"

When hearing the staff say this sentence, the netizens felt a bit cold.

Sure enough, the next second.

The familiar black screen floated by.

Completely turned cold~

【So what exactly are they invited to do? Be an audience?】

【The theater must be inviting them to sing tunes, but what tunes to sing?】

【Yo yo yo, women's clothes, women's clothes, women's clothes...】

【You group of cults, too terrible (*. >Д ===== CHAPTER 136 =====
