Chapter 115 Village Gala Preview
Village chief Li Jinyu also came to join in the fun, humming a classic Sichuan Opera song "Empty City Strategy", walking slowly over with his hands behind his back.
"Moving an army is like setting up a chess formation... I made a wrong move and regretted not winning..." The unique singing voice is full of charm. It tells the story of Zhuge Liang who lost the street pavilion due to the misuse of Ma Su and had to deploy an empty city strategy to deter him. The story of Sima Yi.
Zhuge Wuhou's status in the hearts of the people of Sichuan Province is naturally self-evident.
Sichuan Province has Ma Chao East Road, Ma Chao West Road, Huangzhong Community, etc., but Zhuge Wuhou is directly a large district, Wuhou District.
It is said that the Sichuan Provincial Government plans to build a road. According to the planned route, it will occupy the Zhaolie Temple, which is the temple dedicated to Liu Bei. Because it involves historical relics, many people have raised objections. However, this is a major event that benefits the country and the people, so it happened. Argue and discuss the pros and cons.
Just when everyone was arguing, someone suddenly said: "But Wuhou Temple is still in Zhaolie Temple."
For a moment, the entire conference room was silent. Eventually, the route was re-planned.
As for why Wuhou Temple is located in Zhaolie Temple, it also has historical origins. At first, they were separated, but for more than a thousand years, the people of Sichuan Province basically only worshiped Wuhou, resulting in the Zhaolie Temple being empty. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang’s son came to Sichuan Province to become the king of Shu. Seeing this situation, Wuhou was The temple was moved to Zhaolie Temple, and they said they would worship together and have fun together.
But even so, when everyone goes to Han Zhaolie Temple, they basically worship Zhuge Wuhou.
As the village chief, Li Jinyu also had to queue up. While humming "The Empty City Strategy", he nodded to Li Xiang from a distance, then sat at the back of the queue and chatted with the villagers.
The old people all like to listen to the opera, and a few old people started "gesturing" with Li Jinyu, chatting enthusiastically, and from time to time they would say a few words, which made people in the distance turn their heads.
Everyone is very sad, how many years has it been since there was no singing on the stage?
"Jin Yu, your Peking Opera is actually better than Sichuan Opera, give us a piece of "The Case of the Beauty"!" someone suggested.
Li Jinyu was very emotional. "The Case of the Beauty" was his specialty. He sang it the most when he was young. He just waved his hand and said, "Oh, I can't sing anymore when I get old, and there is no music by gongs and drums, so that feeling is missing." , even worse. ”
On stage, with accompaniment, it is naturally different. The intense music and sonorous drum music push you upwards, which can make people perform superbly.
Li Xiang's hearing was extremely keen. He heard it from a distance and couldn't help shouting: "Then gather people together and let's put on a show!"
Li Jinyu waved his hand and shouted regretfully: "We can't get enough people together."
Li Xiang said: "It's okay, there are still young people who can take over."
"Who among today's young people is willing to learn?" Li Jinyu shook his head.
Indeed, ordinary young people are not willing to learn this, and they all work in big cities. They rarely come back once a year, and then they have to leave home in a hurry.
However, Li Xiang thought that he could try to form one.
I can count one, and my grandpa can count one, and then add a few old people to the others. The young people in Leijiagou are all good. Go and ask if they are willing to lead the new with the old and gather a wave of successors. It should be fine.
Lei Jiaming is also doing self-media. What’s the point of always performing martial arts? Playing, playing, singing, and passing on classics are more attractive.
Of course, the Lei family's ancestral martial arts are also worth passing on. All belong to traditional culture.
Opera troupes that sing operas often have large bands. Some strong and sophisticated bands have dozens of instruments and dozens of personnel, and there are even large ensembles of 100 people. That momentum, that scene...
But a rural opera troupe like Lijia Village cannot be so particular. Li Xiang had seen the gongs and drums at Li Jinyu's house when he was a child, and there were no more than ten kinds. It should be possible to find someone to get them together.
If it really doesn't work, three or five kinds of people can barely perform a show.
This was being broadcast live, and the conversation between Li Xiang and Li Jinyu was naturally heard by fans.
Fans have suggested: "Let's have a game, have a game!"
"When the gongs and operas begin, many people will definitely cheer for it!"
"If you really can't find anyone, you can spend money to hire someone."
"Spending money should have lost its meaning. Brother Xiang probably wants to restore the rural heritage of Lijiacun."
……
"Thank you for your support. I will try my best to organize it. Please take care of me when the time comes."
Li Xiang interacted with fans for a few words and became more and more moved.
The same goes for the villagers in Lijia Village. They were very excited when they heard that they were going to set up a stage to sing opera again. Especially Li Xiang's grandma and third wife, they were laughing from ear to ear and were looking forward to it.
Li Xiang used to think that grandma liked to be quiet, but now it seems that she is not.
In her previous life, it was not that she liked peace and quiet, but that she was alone, had inconvenient legs and feet, and lived far away from the center of the village, so she had to live in peace and quiet.
Then when Li Xiang called her and asked about this, she always said: "It's so quiet to live alone." Thinking about it now, isn't that just reporting good news but not bad news to comfort her grandson?
At this age, who doesn’t like fun?
Li Xiang felt that he was really too...
But since he was reborn, wasn't it an opportunity given by God to make up for his grandma?
"Singing alone may not be attractive enough, or add something else." Li Xiang was cutting his hair, keeping his hands on it, looking at the screen, interacting with fans, and thinking to himself, he could be said to be multi-tasking. , does not affect the business at all. The hair is still cut quickly and well.
Almost most of his fans are young people who have not yet awakened their blood and are not necessarily interested in opera. When the time comes to live broadcast, it is very likely that the popularity will not be strong. Maybe it’s not as popular as haircuts now.
"How about holding a village party, including opera and other things."
So, Li Xiang discussed with fans and said that he wanted to hold the first village party of Lijia Village on the night of the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. Not only would the video be recorded, but it would also be broadcast live. I hope everyone would spread the word. Come to support me all the time.
Many fans are looking forward to it, are very enthusiastic, say some words of encouragement, and some even send gifts to show their support. Of course, there are also some fans who are not optimistic. After all, Village Wan?
I don’t even watch the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, so why should I watch this village gala like you?
Can the Village Gala and the Spring Festival Gala be on the same level?
But Li Xiang doesn't care. It's the first time. Whether it will succeed or not is another matter. The key is to set a precedent for Lijia Village and let the villagers entertain themselves. Then we can use this opportunity to create an opportunity to communicate and enhance relationships with young people in surrounding villages, so as to unite everyone.
In fact, in previous lives, there were sometimes some entertainment programs performed in the dungeon, including singing operas.
Because the end of the world is already very difficult. If there is no entertainment to cheer people up and enjoy hardships, it will be really difficult to persevere.
Even in the military, there are cultural troupes performing condolences.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
After the Gutian Conference in 1929, our army established a propaganda team. In 1931, the "August 1st Theater Troupe" was officially established. After that, various art troupes and propaganda teams, both professional and amateur, sprung up.
The cultural troupe boosts morale, relieves everyone's psychological pressure, and its propaganda role cannot be ignored. This is all the experience of previous generations.
As soon as Li Xiang thought about this, he made up his mind to continue the "Village Gala" in Lijia Village year after year. As long as the race is immortal, this tradition will be maintained.
This free haircut benefit lasted for two days, and the hair of all men, women and children in the village was finally cut.
It must be said that everyone in the village participated, and later even Aunt Jiang came over and asked Li Xiang to help trim her bangs.
Except for Li Xiang, because he is a barber and he is so handsome. No one else knows this skill, so we dare not give him a random haircut. If the haircut looks like a dog chewing, it will greatly affect the temperament of the Internet celebrity. La.
Then the villagers were very enthusiastic about Li Xiang's plan to organize a village party, and asked what they needed to do.
Li Xiang said: "Anyone who wants to perform can come on stage."
But many villagers declined. Coming to power? Isn't that embarrassing? It's okay to lose face in the village, but Li Xiang wants to broadcast live. With his more than two million fans, almost every live broadcast has tens of thousands of people online, all over the country. That's not to lose face to all parts of the country. Gone?
Therefore, for the time being, only two people, Li Jinyu and Li Yucheng, have signed up, but both of them want to sing opera, one in Peking Opera and the other in Sichuan Opera. But now the troupe does not have a band, and they are very worried.
Li Jinyu said that he could ask, but there were probably only two or three old guys who might not be willing to come. One of them had an injured leg and was in a wheelchair. The body may not allow it.
Li Xiang said: "It's okay, I'll take care of it." If that doesn't work, you can go to the county town and spend money to hire one, as fans say. In the first session, you can always find a soundtrack.
Of course, he would rather form his own band in the countryside, one with young blood joining him.
It is worth mentioning that when I got a haircut the next day, fans from nearby actually drove over and lined up to wait for a haircut. They also asked for photos and autographs with Li Xiang, and the second half of the haircut turned into a fan meeting.
However, Li Xiang did a good job cutting it for them, and the fans were quite satisfied. Originally, Li Xiang was joking when he said he would charge 30 yuan, so of course he didn’t want any money at this time. But the fans were very enthusiastic. Since Li Xiang didn’t charge money, they gave it to him. Buy gifts in the live broadcast room to increase your popularity.
In this regard, Li Xiang could only say: "Thank you everyone for your support and cheers."
On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, sacrifices were made to the kitchen official, and on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, the house was cleaned.
In some areas in the north, the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month is the "off year". In the south, it is usually the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month to celebrate the off year. But for the people of Sichuan Province, the New Year in a broad sense begins on the 23rd day!
The Lantern Festival is celebrated from the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month to the 15th of the first lunar month. There are even some places where the first lunar month is the year.
Many people working in other places also began to return. However, some factories or companies have late holidays and can only come back one or two days before New Year's Eve. Some even cannot come back at all and have to work overtime during the New Year. It’s all about living, very helpless.
People in Lijia Village got busy, began to sweep dust and sprinkle water, remove the old and install the new, sweep away the fatigue and worries of the old year, and prepare for the new year.
Li Xiang was no exception. After cleaning up his home, he started to pick a place in the backyard and built a stage using stones, wooden boards, and bamboos.
As for audio equipment, lighting, etc., he called the previous digital store to inquire and made reservations.
That night, Li Xiang also took a "Thousand Sons Whip" and placed it at the door of his house to drive away bad luck and usher in good luck in the new year. After all, it was only a small year, so he didn't put it too big.
This is just a ritual. "Thousand Sons Whip" means "1000 whips", which means "perfect".
Firecrackers are set off in different specifications on New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve, the first day of the Lunar New Year, the fifth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, etc.
Moreover, it is very particular that it should be sounded "one ring to the end", and the engine should not be turned off or mute in the middle, otherwise it is not a good sign and will encounter "bad luck" in the new year. Because of this particularity, the ancients attached great importance to the quality of firecrackers and did not set off "decapitated firecrackers".
