Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Tianxianglou Nightclub

who's who Beijing TV's "Man in a Dream of Red Mansions" audition has been going on for 10 months, and finally came to an end. For the time being, there are candidates for the roles of Daiyu and Baochai, and the role of Baoyu is yet to be investigated. The hustle and bustle of boys and girls in the past 10 months has finally come to fruition. Some of the legends behind the event are quite intriguing. Among other things, the director team has changed hands twice already revealed a lot of information.This reminds me of a story about a corrupt official in ancient times. When the corrupt official left office, the land in the county was three feet lower than when he took office three years ago. However, when the inspection team consulted local opinions, they said good things about him and hoped that he would stay in office. I don't understand, so I asked privately to get the answer.It turns out that what the common people meant was that he was already a full-fledged tiger, and he was really afraid of another hungry wolf--the wisdom of the people is so simple and simple.

There are many tidbits. For example, the top three names in the Daiyu group are Cheng Yuanyuan, Min Chunxiao, and Li Xudan (champion). A reporter took one word from each of the three names and combined them into Cheng Xiaoxu. His name is only one back nasal - boring is boring, but fun, isn't it. What's even more interesting is that Yao Di, the winner of the Baochai group, is actually the spokesperson for Wendu Water City, which is the venue for the national finals of "Dream of Red Mansions".I'm not saying that these two things are necessarily connected, but there can't be no connection, right? Everything is connected. How can such an obvious thing not be connected?At least, in order not to make people have such associations, the organizer should at least find a way, such as avoiding it?

There are so many legends that it is impossible to list them all, and many legends cannot be verified, such as who belongs to whom, who took whose money, etc. Don't dare to talk nonsense without evidence.At the end of the competition, a certain red scholar wrote a poem for each of the top three in the Bao Dai Chai group, praising their beauty and wisdom. I don’t want to be presumptuous. From the novel version: There is Yu Wang shrinking his hands behind him, (the gate couplet of Zhitong Temple) Only leave the name and surname to carry the empty boat. (Xue Baoqin "Chibi Nostalgia")

Because of the chaos in the town every day, (Jia Yingchun's "Abacus") This red building is not that red building. so "double yolk egg For many days, the Huabiao Award was a joke among many friends around me.Zhang Ziyi's smoky makeup, Li Bingbing's suspected street stalls and other outfits were laughed at when the stars appeared on stage, which fully demonstrated the unkindness of friends. In my opinion, if women are willing to dress up, men should be overjoyed and pick and choose?It's time for you to go back to the era of yellow-faced women all over the mountains and plains within the range of your eyesight.

Of course, no matter how unkind people are, they are just talking when they see female stars' failed outfits. How many people still remember Bjork's swan outfit back then? The most interesting rumor of the Huabiao Awards is this. An organizer said to the young actors who came to present the awards: No one is allowed to mispronounce the prescribed words. Shanghuabiao. But since it is a rumor, of course there is no evidence, but this can be seen from the fact that Zhao Wei and Jet Li have nothing to say, and finally said "We seem to have enough for the required 5 minutes, and we can start the lottery".Besides, strict requirements on young actors are only good for their growth, not bad.This kind of requirement seems to be a bit strict, but the Huabiao Award, the grand prize, of course has the right to be strict with young actors, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of fame?

At the Huabiao Awards, the most criticized is the so-called "double yolk" problem, that is, two people or films win an award, and the number of winners of the "Excellent Feature Film Award" has reached 10, namely "Riding Alone for Thousand Miles" , "Shambhala Messenger", "Entrustment of Life and Death", "My Long March", "The Prime Minister in the Alley", "On the Taihang Mountains", "Don't Treat Yourself as a Cadre", "Yun Shui Yao", "Shanxiang Secretary" and "Tokyo Judgment.My friend made a joke of this, but I resolutely fought back. People called it "Excellent Feature Film", and it was not called "Best" like the previous four editions. Of course, the awards can be tied. This is the case from the fifth to the eleventh edition. , the twelfth session has no reason to change.I used examples to convince my friends. For example, when Jia Yuanchun sent things to the Grand View Garden, all the younger sisters had a share. Even Baoyu, Baochai and Daiyu got it. It was something from the palace!Why does everyone have a share in Yuanchun's gifts?Of course, she thinks that her younger brothers, sisters, and cousins ​​are all outstanding, and they are inseparable.The same is true for the Huabiao Awards. Since all 10 films are good, all of them can be awarded. This is called happiness--of course, I haven't watched all of them, so I am not qualified to speak.

Inferior The director Chen Xinyi, who was selected into the "Hall of Fame of Centennial Drama", made a stage play. According to the description of the reporter from Xinhua News Agency: "In the play, Baoyu and Daiyu were arranged to read together in luxurious European dresses; Daiyu buried flowers without "lotus flowers." "Hoe" danced the ballet; Yuan Chun's luxurious headdress weighed 10 kilograms, so that he was so pressed that he couldn't straighten up... As a result, the commentators of the agency became angry, and reprimanded that this was "disrespecting the sages with dishonesty", saying: These "creative ideas" are too clumsy, not only difficult for most audiences to accept, presumably the actors themselves will also feel embarrassed.

I'm dumb enough to think why the actor himself would be embarrassed, and most importantly, when did he become a saint?Don't sages refer to people like Confucius?How can a novel deserve the word "sage". "Zi does not talk about strange powers and chaotic spirits", there are strange powers and chaotic spirits everywhere. If Confucius is really alive, if he sees people juxtaposing him, he will probably be angry and die. Changing a novel into a drama and adding some modern elements should at least be regarded as an artistic exploration. It is really boring to use the "Cultural Revolution" accent to overwhelm people every now and then.

When the play was staged, the attendance rate was only 50%, which also became evidence for critics, saying that "most of the audience gave up the free shuttle bus provided by the organizer after the show and chose to leave early. Severe punishment".This sounds quite ridiculous, because the news clearly stated that "On the two nights of November 10th and November 11th, tens of thousands of spectators braved the cold to come to the Shanghai Hongkou Football Stadium, looking forward to an open-air show with classic classics." "Dating"".The howling wind, I think the audience was frozen away. After spending so much money watching the drama, they left early. Obviously, it is not a matter of demeanor, but a matter of temperature.

As for how to perform classic masterpieces, it should be the director's business, which is common sense. In 1986, the Central Academy of Drama changed "King Lear" to "King Li Ya". More than 20 years have passed, and some people's mentality has taken a big step back, which is strange. On the contrary, Yu Qiuyu was in a good mood this time, saying: "Stage plays are different from classics from a literary perspective. There is no need to be too sad or too excited. Don't confuse things with different levels under the same name. It's Whether it is good or not, it will naturally face the cruel test of the market. If the level of art is not high and it is too casual, the market will naturally give it color." The mentality is good, but I still feel that the drama is inferior, tsk tsk, the dean of the Drama Academy .

looking for gems Li Shaohong's version started the search process again, this time searching for Baoyu.Is Baoyu so hard to find in China?It is indeed difficult. Li Shaohong is a sensible person. She said: "The first criterion for me to make a new version is to restore the original work. It is an indisputable fact that the age of the players and characters does not match when choosing actors under this premise. In short, I will try my best to make the final decision." The actors approached the characters." She noted the age issue, which was a huge improvement over the 1987 version. There are two biggest problems with the 1987 version of the TV series: one is that the original work was modified without authorization, and the ending of the original work was completely discarded; the second problem is that the cast members are generally too old. When Qingwen entered Jia's house, she was only about 11 years old, but if you look at that Qingwen, people will believe that she is 21 years old. She is not the same age. No matter how good the performance is, it is completely different. Besides, the performance of that version is really not good A "good" word basically means the level of pronouncing the lines. Having said that, why is it so difficult to find Jia Baoyu?The most important thing is that the current society no longer has the soil to produce Jia Baoyu's temperament. Jia Baoyu's temperament, in general, has three points: 1. Sensible.For example, he is filial, he abides by etiquette, and he is considerate to people (of course, mainly women); second, he has read poetry and books.This point, there are not many young people who can do it now. I have also heard that there are children who can recite "Lao Tzu" backwards, and they are really backwards, and they have won the applause of many experts and scholars (bah!), But I am afraid that there is no one who can fabricate verses after reading it like Jia Baoyu; third, have ideas.Jia Baoyu can express his own unique views on popular concepts, such as the death of Wen and the death of martial arts, etc., which is difficult for children of the same age at present-they are all overwhelmed by big schoolbags and lose their intelligence, I think . For Li Shaohong, the most difficult thing is to find an actor with this temperament. The only thing that is more difficult than finding an actor with this temperament is that she must find two more—one to play the young Jia Baoyu (before the age of 15), and one Play young Jia Baoyu. The only thing that was more difficult than finding two such actors was that the two she found were at least similar in appearance. It's hard to find two Jia Baoyu, but where about two Xue Baochai?What about the two Lin Daiyu... If Li Shaohong really wants to be faithful to the age of the characters in the original work, I am pessimistic about the show. Of course, if she finally gave up on this idea, then - I am even more pessimistic. The model show is back again There are so many passages in the drama, the Jia family even raised 12 young actors themselves, all of whom are talented in sex and art, and some of them have very personalities, such as Lingguan, who dare not even miss Jia Yuanchun's face. Give.Baoyu, Daiyu, Baochai and others are obviously very familiar with these operas. For example, when talking about "Mountain Gate" in Chapter 22, Xue Baochai was even able to recite the libretto in it. Leaving the family of a scholar. Xie Ci was ordained under the lotus platform. There is no chance to be separated in a blink of an eye. There is no care to come and go naked. There is a single line for smoke, rain, hats and hats. I let my straw shoes break the bowl and melt away." It is indeed a good word. This kind of verses full of true nature and true feelings became less and less in later plays, almost none, especially those model plays closest to us.It's not that there are no good passages in the model play. Everyone participated in the creation. It's not good at all, and it's difficult.For example, such a libretto: "The morning glow is reflected on Yangcheng Lake, the reeds bloom, the rice is fragrant, and the willows are walking..." "Today, I drank the celebration wine, and my ambition is not rewarded. I will never stop. In the future, I will show my skills and write my spring and autumn with blood." In my opinion They are all good, but more of this kind: "I have read the communiqué of the plenary meeting with great passion, looking out the window after the rain and the rainbow flying into the blue sky. The picturesque and grand exhibition of the country, how can you let the demons dance lightly!" Warm, a round of red sun shines on the chest." There are graphic policies, and there is also the promotion of personality worship. The overall artistic quality can be imagined. Artistic quality is one thing, the problem is what the model opera represents. In the words of Wuyue Sanren, it represents "forced fashion". Most people older than me can listen to the first sentence and follow the next sentence, but they can't sing. It was very difficult. In the "Cultural Revolution" era, if you didn't listen to or watch model operas, there was nothing else to listen to or watch.Zweig's novel describes a similar terrible scene for us: a person accidentally got a chess record in a Nazi prison, and only this book can be read. Many people who have come through the ages are more familiar with the lyrics of model operas than those of the authors-don't think it's impossible. It is not an exaggeration to say that model operas are a symbol of the "Cultural Revolution".Recently, the education department intends to add some Peking Opera content to the education content of primary and secondary schools, but what makes people puzzled is that out of the 15 Peking Opera pieces given by them, 9 are actually from model operas. Woolen cloth? Correspondingly, the "Beijing News" reported: "All music teachers can sing Peking Opera, which is the minimum standard." Starting the new semester, Beijing will introduce Peking Opera to more than 20 primary and secondary schools on a pilot basis.Wang Jun, deputy director of the Sports and Beauty Department of the Municipal Education Commission, said yesterday that the short-term training does not expect the teachers to be good at singing Peking Opera, but it is a basic requirement for every teacher who teaches Peking Opera to be able to sing. Then, under the basic requirements, one can sing 15 paragraphs including 9 model operas. It is really not difficult to meet this requirement. It is easy to find people who are 40 years old and above-they Whether you want to sing or not is another matter. forever spoof Forever spoofing means that spoofing seems to be an eternal topic.If something can become a topic, it must be because many people have different opinions on it. Jiang Kun, a well-known cross talk actor in the past, did not support spoofing.In fact, I also really want peace in the world, and no one is spoofing, but Jiang Kun's reasons really don't convince me. "New Express" reported: Jiang Kun, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a famous cross talk artist, criticized the popular "spoof" yesterday.He believes that spoofs and creativity are two different things, and spoofs belong to the "Xiasanlu" and "hooligan culture". "Spoofs and creativity are two different things. Everyone appreciates the strength of American culture, but is their creativity a spoof? Why do we have to be a spoof? We have to be a "rogue culture" to be considered creative? Why do we have to Should we take the "lower three roads"? Isn't the "upper three roads" what we Chinese should have? The "upper three roads" must be owned by the Chinese, but people everywhere in the world also have the "lower three roads", so we also followed Jiang Kun's saying: "Why do we have to take the "upper three roads"? Isn't "Xiasanlu" what we Chinese should have?" A person has both Shangsanlu and Xiasanlu, otherwise the pants will not be sold, the garment industry will be hit hard, and everyone will not even want to have children I have a child. --This is just a joke. In fact, the bigger problem is Jiang Kun's way of thinking. According to his analysis, the strength of American culture = creativity is not spoofing, and Americans are not spoofing = we can't spoof. When people hear it, they will definitely call Jiang Kun a traitor. They should ask: "Does Chinese culture have to follow the lead of the United States?" I don't know how Jiang Kun should answer. I have a good heart, let me answer for Jiang Kun, in fact, Americans also make spoofs, and the spoofs are open, for example, every movie of Woody Allen is a spoof, if Woody Allen is not convincing enough, Look at the movie "The White-Headed Detective" again, one two three, spoof, it's a mess. Going deeper, cross talk itself is a spoof industry. Jiang Kun has been spoofing all his life, and he started to oppose spoofing when he got old. Is this itself a spoof?Just like Jia Zheng, when he was young, he was romantic in poetry and wine, and was beaten to pieces by his father, but when he was old, he didn't want what he wanted, so he gave it to his son Jia Baoyu, or Confucius said, "To be old and not die is to be a thief." "Woolen cloth. Anti-three customs "A good day is beautiful, but what is the sky, who's home is a place to enjoy the pleasure", this is the sentence in the book. Professor Yu Dan said that she read it for the first time in a textbook when she was in middle school.Lin Daiyu's textbooks are generally "Daughter's Book" and the like. Her father is considered enlightened and raised her as a son. The textbooks are just the Four Books and Five Classics. Professor Yu Dan is not as lucky as Professor Yu Dan, who can read them in the textbooks.If Lin Daiyu wants to hear these two ancient poems, she must also listen to the opera. No matter how good a drama is, it was vulgar in Lin Daiyu's time, just like we watch TV sketches today. If you call it art, the most I watch is acting training. There are also more vulgar ones. For example, we can see that there is no problem at the moment, and it can be regarded as an "elegant" book.But Lin Daiyu couldn't read it, Xue Baochai couldn't read it, and even Jia Baoyu had to read it secretly. At their time, this was not only a "vulgar" book, but even a banned book. When serving the wine order, in front of Jiamu, Lin Daiyu not only said "how beautiful the day is", but also said the words in the poem, "there is no matchmaker for the screen window". Forbidden, Lin Daiyu just read it, not only Lin Daiyu, but also Xue Baochai--Baochai sneered: "What a daughter! What a girl who doesn't go out of the boudoir! What are you talking about? You just tell the truth." Go ahead." Puzzled, Daiyu just laughed, but she couldn't help being puzzled, and said, "Why did I say anything? You're just trying to find fault with me. I'll listen to you if you tell me." Baochai smiled. Said: "You are still pretending to be a fool. What did you say when you were drinking yesterday? I don't know where it came from." Daiyu thought about it, and then remembered that she had lost her point yesterday. Then, she said a few words, but she didn't realize blushing. I am extremely suspicious that Mrs. Wang Xifeng, Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Jia have seen all these, but they are more serious, and they will not point it out in Daiyu's face, but in the end they choose Xue Baochai, who "sees" but does not reveal it, to be Jia Baoyu's daughter-in-law. These are related to--they watched it and didn't talk about it, but they despised Lin Daiyu who also watched it. This kind of mentality is very abnormal, but most of the so-called parents and teachers are like this, but it is normal. For a long time, this is how Taoist priests and old masters have dealt with us, anti-three vulgarities at every turn, and banning them at every turn. Most of them are on the same level as Mrs. Wang Xifeng, Mrs. Jia Muwang. They look smart, but they are actually just a joke. Red House SMS American Eliot said at the beginning of the long poem that April is the cruelest season.This past April, I felt the same way.On the first day of April, my mobile phone was constantly bombarded. In one day, I received 400 text messages wishing me a happy birthday.It turned out that Wang Xiaofeng, who has the same surname as "Wang Xiao", published my mobile phone number on his blog, and joked that it was my birthday that day, calling on his fans to send me text messages to wish me happy.For the first 100 text messages, I replied "Happy April Fool's Day" in a serious manner, but then I couldn't stand it anymore, so I had to "cruelly" not reply. I figured that it would be quite interesting to often make some harmless jokes. If China had an April Fool's Day, it would be so much fun!It's a pity that all the fun things are imported, and our side is a bit heavy. If there is, how can I deceive my friends in it?Just send each of them a text message: Baoyu, the master said that the number one scholar in every line of work, he has made a decision, he will not let you go to school anymore, he wants you to learn from cousin Xue Pan, and do business, he has allocated money to open a rouge shop for you, and it can be established in the future cosmetic company. (Baoyu jumps up and dances.) Daiyu, Your Majesty has taken a fancy to your poems and is going to publish a collection of poems for you. The first print is 100,000 copies, and the royalties are 25%. (Daiyu replied: I don't care about the royalties, but the empress is too impatient. I don't want those stinky men to read my poems. I might as well burn them.) Baochai, you have successfully applied for the patent of Lengxiangwan, you can open a factory and make a lot of money, I wish you the first female CEO in China. (Baochai smiles lightly, and immediately regains her composure.) Sister Feng, the emperor has issued an imperial decree, and I will practice monogamy from now on, don't worry. (Wang Xifeng looks back at Ping'er and snorts.) Madam Yuanchun, your younger brother Jia Baoyu has won the first prize, and he is riding a horse and wearing flowers to parade through the streets. (Yuanchun: Where, where is it? Take me to see it.) To welcome the spring, Sun Shaozu wrote you a letter of divorce, and you can go back to live in the Grand View Garden. (This is a bit ruthless, I'm sorry to welcome the spring, I cheated you hard.) Sister Tanchun, the eldest wife fired Wang Shanbao's family and said that you slapped me well. (Tanchun: cut, deserve it.) Little sister Xichun, the old lady suddenly doesn't like to look at paintings, so you don't need to draw a picture of having fun in the Grand View Garden. (Xi Chun: OH, MY Buddha, you are safe and sound.) Qiaojie, Grandma Liu's housekeeper is here and brought you some fresh fruit. (Sister Qiao: Hee hee hee.) Xiangyun, your aunt asked someone to bring a message, saying that there is no need to do those manual work. (Xiangyun lay down and fell asleep at the time.) Sister-in-law Li Wan, director Li Shaohong is going to let the most popular Fan Bingbing play you, you are so beautiful. (Li Wan faints to the ground.) Miaoyu, I heard that you can return to vulgarity, and said that you should marry Baoyu. (Miaoyu foams at the mouth, and weeps with joy for a while.) But sister Qing, Liu Xinwu's latest research shows that you didn't commit suicide at all, and you lived a long life. (Ke Qing cried: God damn it, let me die.) 80 kg?Good A Hollywood actress said: Give me the body of an Ethiopian refugee, but don't let the flies fly around me.This statement is very politically incorrect, and it gives Hollywood haters a pretext to attack.But girls who pursue skinny skin may not think so, so the following news may be a big blow to them. The British "Daily Mail" reported that Chloe Marshall is 17 years old this year. She is 1.78 meters tall and weighs 80 kilograms. In the competition, she overwhelmed the crowd and won the crown.Chloe said: "To be honest, my opponents are too skinny. Looking at their skinny and thin bodies, I feel that I will win. Today, girls who weigh 40 kilograms will feel that they are "fat", and then ask everywhere for weight loss methods. Chloe Marshall's victory is exciting.This makes people can't help but think of the heroine of the movie "Little Miss Sunshine", the 7-year-old Olive is also a little fat. Come to be happy, let the family unite, and no longer be "strangers" who don't care about each other. Is it more beautiful to be fatter or thinner? This is an old question. If I want to cite the example of Concubine Yang Gui or the allusion of "The King of Chu has a thin waist", I think everyone will start scolding.The times are different and the standards are also different, but no matter fat or thin, they have their own advantages. Otherwise, how could storytellers say "the fat is tall and the thin is the spirit"?Lin Daiyu is thin and beautiful, but it does not matter to her that "the heart is more sensitive than dryness", and "sickness is as thin as Xizi" is more attractive; Fang, plump and beautiful", and even "many people say that Daiyu is inferior", but when Baoyu said that she was "no wonder they compare her sister to Concubine Yang, she is also plump and timid", she was still "can't help being furious", which shows that At that time, fat people were also unwelcome, otherwise why would Baochai be in a hurry? Some people have gone so far in pursuit of slimming, such as Jolin Tsai, who weighs only 39 kg, but claims to lose weight, girl, if you lose weight, you will become a business card!The well-known big mouth Song Zude ridiculed Jolin Tsai for offering a reward for verification in order to wash off his relationship with Yanzhaomen, and even said that Jolin Tsai was just a hype, saying that she did not have a relationship with Edison Chen because Edison Chen looked down on her because she was thin.Look, thinness has become a crime, although Song Dazui's words are unreliable and not enough to prove. Laza wrote this, nothing else, just as a fat man, I was very happy to see another fat man win the beauty pageant, and hoped that the fat man would have more opportunities to be proud, haha.
