Chapter 171 Renyi also came to join in the fun
Just after returning from Yang Opera, someone came to visit me.
"Comrade Hongmin, I am Lin Chaohua from Capital People's Art."
"Hello, Teacher Lin."
Liu Hongmin was a little confused, could it be that Lin Chaohua was also doing this? From "The Donkey Gets Water"?
Sure enough, Lin Chaohua said: "Comrade Hongmin, I have taken the liberty to come to visit, so I am disturbing you. I heard that Yang Opera wants to adapt "The Donkey Gets Water" into a drama?"
< br>Liu Hongmin nodded, "Yes, I just came back from Yangzhou Opera."
Lin Chaohua said regretfully: "It seems that I am a step too late."
"It's not too late! "Liu Hongmin said: "I didn't ask for their licensing fee. After all, the Yangtze River Opera is a school, and it is a good thing to train actors for the country."
Lin Chaohua said in surprise: "So, our human arts still have a chance?"< br>
"Of course!" Liu Hongmin said: "You can adapt it, as long as you pay the copyright fee according to the standard. But I have a request, that is, every time you perform, you can let students from Yangzhou Opera go over to observe."
"Of course!" Lin Chaohua agreed on the spot.
He also came from Yangzhou Opera, so he naturally hopes that his alma mater will be good.
After Liu Hongmin signed the licensing contract, Lin Chaohua did not leave in a hurry, but chatted with Liu Hongmin about his creative ideas.
Liu Hongmin didn’t know what the original creative concept of “The Donkey Gets Water” was. However, some people analyzed that the special period was connoted through events such as the binding of Zhang Yiman.
But when Liu Hongmin was creating, he removed these areas that could easily lead to misunderstanding. He is different from others in that he never denies the special period. It happens for a reason. It's just that it was later used by someone with intentions, which led to such a situation.
This kind of thing happens frequently in history. There will always be opposition to any reform, and what is more terrifying than the opposition are those with ulterior motives.
What Wang Anshi was afraid of during the reform was not Sima Guang, his political opponent, but the vested interest groups who were working in secret and overtly. These maggots hidden under the history books are the reason why Wang Anshi's reform failed.
“The period of history before the founding of the People’s Republic of China is not that long ago, only thirty or forty years ago. But if you look at the current public opinion, there are so many people who are trying to clean up the ground before the founding of the People’s Republic of China. I don’t deny that they have merits. But trying to cover up their infinite shortcomings with only a few advantages is something I will never allow. We are all guardians on the cultural front and we must not let these scumbags succeed."
< br>Lin Chaohua agreed with Liu Hongmin's idea. Although he didn't like politics, he couldn't stand the unhealthy tendencies that had emerged in the past two years.
"Don't worry, Comrade Hongmin, I know how to adapt it."
Lin Chaohua stood up and said goodbye, "If you have time, come to Renyi and help us check it."
Liu Hongmin laughed. He waved his hands and said, "Teacher Lin, I'm embarrassed. I don't understand drama. I believe that with the level of people and art, we can produce a wonderful drama, as long as you don't deviate from the main point."
Lin Chaohua said with certainty. : "Please rest assured that we will not deviate from the theme."
After receiving the authorization, Lin Chaohua immediately found someone to adapt it. Renyi's screenwriters are very good and they came up with the script in just a few days. "The Donkey Gets Water" is suitable for adaptation into a drama, and there are not many things that need to be changed. If the script didn't need to be written by hand, it probably wouldn't even take a few days.
After having the script, Lin Chaohua immediately gathered people for rehearsals. The actors of Renyi are much more mature than the students of Yangxi Opera. Under the guidance of Lin Chaohua, they became familiar with the script in a few days, and it took shape in half a month.
Lin Chaohua decided to hold an internal performance. If the effect is good, it can be performed publicly.
Liu Hongmin also got the invitation, and then he called Shangma Weidu and went to Renyi together.
He was indeed not very interested in dialogue dramas. Although the actors performed well, he couldn't help but look around at the layout of the theater. Nowadays, there are many people watching dramas. Should we build a theater in Jinpeng Mall? After thinking about it, Liu Hongmin rejected his idea again. In the 1990s, after the country's economy develops rapidly, people's consumption of dramas and movies will be downgraded. In the new century, almost no one watched dramas, so it was better to make money in movie theaters!
Ma Weidu took it very seriously. He had recently contacted a few buddies in the film and television industry and was somewhat interested in this aspect.
After the performance, Lin Chaohua came over and said, "Comrade Hongmin, give us some advice!"
Liu Hongmin said with a smile: "I don't have any advice, Lao Ma, you just said You’re so serious about it, let’s talk about it!”
Ma Weidu waved his hand quickly, “You, the original author, don’t have an opinion, how can I have an opinion?”
This is Jingcheng Renyi? , he doesn’t understand drama, what advice can he give?
Lin Chaohua was afraid that the two of them would have concerns, so he quickly said: "We collect opinions every time we perform. Feedback from the audience is the key to the formation of the play. So you two don't have to worry. If you have any opinions, you can raise them directly. "
Liu Hongmin: "Teacher Lin, I really don't have any opinions. I don't know much about dialogue dramas. You should ask other people."
Ma Weidu said from the side." That’s right, Teacher Lin. He is just a layman, so you don’t need to care about his opinions.”
When Lin Chaohua heard what they said, he stopped insisting.
"Okay, Comrade Hongmin, I'll ask others for their opinions."
Ma Weidu said: "Were you distracted when you were watching the drama just now?"
"Didn't you say that? I am just a vulgar person, a little allergic to elegance. You were watching the drama, but my mind was full of thoughts Why don't you open a theater?"
Ma Weidu said, "I've gained some experience. How about you making money?"
"Aren't I worried? Jinpeng Mall has to set a benchmark in the industry. If it can't be done well, maybe some ghosts and monsters will pop up."
Thinking about the random thoughts in the construction industry later, Liu Hongmin deeply feels that there is a long way to go. .
"You! You just have too many things to worry about." Ma Weidu said, "You can't be an official, so why are you worrying so much?"
Liu Hongmin shook his head, "Don't worry. If so, does my life have any meaning? "
Ma Weidu was speechless, but Liu Hongmin was right. Making money is too easy for Liu Hongmin. He can earn tens of millions just by writing a book. Even if he doesn't dare to do anything from now on, the income from Transformers alone will be enough for him to use for a lifetime.
"That's up to you to worry about. There are so many industries in the country, can you manage them?"
"Then just do it one industry at a time!" Liu Hongmin shrugged, "Anyway I’m still young.”
"You are almost thirty, please find time to get married."
"My mother asked you to say it again?"
"Isn't my aunt caring about you? You It’s only been two years since you and Li Lizhen? If that works, let’s get married.”
Liu Hongmin was speechless, “She’s not of legal age yet.”
Moreover, Li Lizhen even Like his lover, not his girlfriend. Li Lizhen lowered her status, and also lowered her weight in Liu Hongmin's heart.
