Jin Shaoshan probably also knew the audience's psychology, so he relied on his "unpicked" voice and "played" the audience with his sexual desire. Not only did he miss the situation, but he also wanted to "stop it", which made the audience unable to endure it and dare not get angry. Not to mention the average audience, even when he performed in Shanghai, even the famous rogue leader Huang Jinrong was left with no choice. In the end, he had to add silver to him!
In the early 1920s, Huang Jinrong, the number one gangster in Shanghai, was the boss of the "Rongji Big Stage". Jin Shaoshan performed there. Once, Huang Jinrong sent Jin Shaoshan to perform on Sunday's maritime scene "The First Two Series of Series". Because Jin Shaoshan was becoming popular at that time, the tickets for the play were sold out as soon as the poster was posted. However, the person in charge could not find Jin Shaoshan's figure, so he was so anxious that he had to repay Huang Jinrong truthfully.
Huang Jinrong was furious after hearing this and scolded Jin Shaoshan for "responsible demolition of my platform!" He was so anxious that he immediately sent people to search everywhere. Only then did he know that Jin Shaoshan went to the horse racing hall to watch the gambling horse. If he didn't come back, the show could not be performed. If Jin Shaoshan doesn’t appear on stage, the audience will definitely not want to. They can only refund the ticket and there is no other way. However, to refund the ticket is like killing Huang Jinrong. How could he spit out the money he got in order to make money? He sent people one after another to urge Jin Shaoshan to come back. The urgent urge was just like Qin Hui adjusting Yue Fei , and won twelve gold medals in a row.
Who knew that Jin Shaoshan was indifferent, sat firmly and slowly in the stands, looking like he ignored him. Even though the person who came to urge him to say "Boss Jin" on the left and "Master Jin" on the right, he just sat firmly on the Diaoyutai without moving at all. When he was anxious, he simply lit up his big and beautiful voice and replied, "I won't act today, I will refund the ticket!"
He did what he said, forcing Huang Jinrong to give up the ticket!
At this moment, Huang Jinrong became angry and was so angry that he took out his pistol, tweeted it on the table, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Damn, don't want him anymore! Don't want him anymore!"
Fortunately, someone smoothed out, Huang Jinrong did not fire him immediately. But he decided to send him to sing the mascot "The First Two Series of Books" next Sunday. Unexpectedly, Jin Shaoshan came to the backstage in a regular manner this time. Carefully show off his face. After Dou Erdun appeared, the first lyrics 'Noviable Kuiwu' was deliberately sang. Liao Liang's voice was really shocking, which made people feel satisfied! The audience cheered wildly and called out a lot of good things!
At that time, Huang Jinrong was also watching the show in the Hualou box. Seeing this exciting scene was also moved by it, which made him laugh and cry. He stomped his feet and said, "Damn, I have to ask him!" I don't know where the energy from the previous few days went! From then on, Huang Jinrong not only did not fire him, but instead added him 200 yuan in Baoyin.
1937, Jin Shaoshan came from Shanghai to Peking and criticized the team alone. On the first day, he co-starred with Zhou Rui'an in "Serial Condom". On this day, Jin Shaoshan was at peace and without any misunderstandings. From the moment he "picked the curtain", the audience was shocked by his upright momentum. After the scattered drama, the reputation about Jin Shaoshan spread like wildfire. the next day. Theater will add a stool in the aisle! Unexpectedly, from the next day, Jin Shaoshan never had a formality on time again. The audience had no choice but to do anything about him, even if they were too late, they would be solved as long as they opened their throats. That kind of momentum of "sound shocks the wayu" makes people feel happy, and it is a kind of beautiful enjoyment.
Theater is even more helpless. I had to withdraw all the people from "Jinglike" and inquire about Jin Shaoshan's daily life and departure situation. then. Jin Shaoshan’s home is in an alley on the east side of Xuanwumen . If you perform at the Chang'an Theater on Xidan Road, at least seven or eight people who "Jinglike" must be released. The first stop was put into the Jin family courtyard. If Jin Shaoshan got up at 8 o'clock in the evening, the person ran out the door immediately. He shouted at the entrance of the alley: "Mr. Jin San is getting up!" Standing at the entrance of the alley, he shouted at Xuanwu Gate: "Mr. Jin San is getting up..." The third person stood at Xuanwu Gate, and the fourth person stood outside the door of " barbecue Wan ". He continued all the way until the seventh or eighth place, and then stood at the back door of Chang'an Theater.Finally, when the man heard the news, he huffed and ran into the backstage and told the backstage manager. On the contrary, the backstage was in a hurry, and the manager passed the "Jinglike" staff member in the back door to Jin Shaoshan's ears one by one. However, in the end, the voice was already weak!
Not only that, Jin Shaoshan takes the stage every time. Most of them are loose and loose. There is no effort to do the places that should be "selled". The audience can only endure it and dare not get angry, for fear of angering Jin Sanye, so they will slack until the scene is dispersed. When Jin Shaoshan himself felt that it was time to "mao", he suddenly shouted. The audience immediately felt "quenching thirst". As soon as he cheered, the music of the scene was also loud!
Jin Shaoshan's mood has not changed and is not moved by external factors at all. For example, he returned to Shanghai from Peking with a good reputation and sang in Queen's Theater for a period of time. At that time, Xi Shengrong was the basic team of the "Queen" and played Jin Shaoshan in many plays. Jin Shaoshan posted " Bai Liangguan ", and Qiu Shengrong played "Little Hei'er". Jin and Qiu are on the same stage. It is very unfavorable to Qiu because Xi is a few size smaller than Jin Shaoshan. The high, bright, wide and thick throat are far inferior to Jin Shaoshan. However, Qiu Shengrong fully utilized the advantages of being pure and honest in some duets. In the first sentences of some duets, they pursued the charm on the one hand, and sang up on the other hand, forcing Jin Shaoshan to be more high in the next sentence to be commensurate.
However, Jin Shaoshan's temper was too bad. No matter how Qiu Shengrong "provoked", he just "stands his troops" and still deals with it in an ordinary low voice. It was not until the last sentence "Steel whip" before the play that he suddenly exerted his strength and sang a full high voice . As soon as the audience was happy, they started playing again.
Ma Lianliang takes a bath
Most famous Peking Opera actors like to "take a bath". The purpose of taking a bath is not to remove dirt, but to use hot water and steam to eliminate distractions and take a thorough rest.
At that time, the bathhouses in Beijing still retained the legacy of their early years. Many older people, after hot water, feel comfortable from their bodies to their hearts, and will unconsciously "sing two" ones, which is probably the best time to arouse the childlike innocence of adults.
People in the Liyuan world attach great importance to taking baths. Because the Peking Opera industry, as a whole, has always been dominated by the emotions of "vulgar culture" and has a deep connection with the middle and lower classes of society. Even though a few famous actors have far surpassed ordinary people in their lives, they still have a close relationship with ordinary people in their relationship. You can avoid the applause in the theater and welcome outside the venue, get a moment of peace, review all kinds of childhood, think about some details of a certain play, or think about nothing, just let yourself get out of the chaos and experience the feeling of being a "both ordinary and free person".
celebrities take a bath, making it easier to enter the people. Take a bath to make people who lack freedom on weekdays. In an instant, I gained the greatest freedom! Although the time is short, the shorter it is, the more precious it is. They couldn't help but "sing two voices" in their hearts and expressed their emotions! This "singing two voices" is no matter what the memory is, so it allows the famous actors to understand public opinion easily and directly, which is of great benefit to the development of their own art. Of course, both famous and other professions sing Peking Opera. The steaming pool is often filled with the "singing" of Peking Opera, which is the most symbolic custom painting of that year.
Ma Lianliang is in Beijing. Whenever there is a show at night, he always has lunch in advance and instructs the driver: "At two o'clock, wait for me at xx." Then he walked alone. At that time, there was only one famous Beijing opera actor in Beijing who had a private car, Ma Lianliang. At the designated time and location, the driver drove the car to the "Tsinghua Pool" bathroom in the eight-sided groove in Dongcheng. When the car arrived at the bathroom, it was already the most "suspended" moment of the day. The waiter recognized Ma Lianliang, and took him into the single room as soon as he saw it, and let him take a bath in the big pool.
Ma Lianliang likes to soak in water the hottest place. When it is comfortable, he can't help but shout a few times and hum it a few times. When I returned to the single room to rest, I informed the hall to send some snacks.What you eat is naturally "Dong Laishun". Because horses are Huimin , "Dong Laishun" is a Huimin restaurant. Horses usually have close relationships with them. Sometimes when horses treat them there, they have to go to the kitchen in person, look here, touch that, and chat with the masters about words that only Huimins understand and are interested in. After resting, it was four or five o'clock, and the car took him directly to the theater.
Mei Lanfang Addressed by
In the 1920s, Mei Lanfang caused a sensation in the capital with "Farewell My Concubine". Mei Lanfang's performance art is so fascinating to the audience. However, few people know his painstaking efforts to Peking Opera art .
One day, when he played Yu Ji's sword-drift, his graceful movements made the audience applaud. Unexpectedly, an old man suddenly stood up in the front seat, and he heard him say loudly, "What's the good thing? It's just a false reputation!" After that, he withdrew from the theater.
Mei Lanfang was shocked. Why is this? The next day he asked around and finally found out that the old man, named Zhu Shandong, who lives in , Beijing Yunju Temple, . The next day Mei Lanfang went to Yunju Temple alone to find the old man. As soon as I entered the temple, I saw an old man over 70 years old practicing sword in the courtyard. Mei Lanfang took a few steps, bowed to the old man, and said, "My Lanfang is not good at acting, and she offended her many things. Today, I came to ask you for advice."
The old man withdrew his sword and said, "Please use tea inside."
After the two entered the house and sat down, Mei Lanfang said, "My young man is not talented and has poor acting skills. I'm here to ask for advice."
The old man was drinking tea. While saying, "Although your role in "Farewell My Concubine" is very good, Yu Meiren in the play is a man's swordsmanship, which doesn't seem to match Yu Ji's identity!"
Mei Lanfang woke up like a dream. The idea suddenly opened. Immediately, I took the old man as my teacher and learned sword from him. After three months of careful practice, Mei Lanfang finally mastered a good swordsmanship. After that, Mei Lanfang's "Farewell My Concubine" starring Mei Lanfang has become even more exciting.
In the early years of the Republic of China, Feng Jinfu, a merchant from Chengdu, Sichuan, and Gu Shenglan went to Shanghai to sell. During Feng Jinfu's stay in Shanghai, one day he bought a ticket for the " Phoenix Returns to the Nest" starring Mei Lanfang. When he went to the Tianliang stage to watch the show at night, he didn't want to be poured out a basin of water from the door on the road, and poured it all over his body, so the two of them quarreled, which caused more and more people to watch the fun.
At this time, a private chartered car came from the other end of the street. A young man was sitting on the car. When he saw the road was blocked, he got off the car and asked what was going on. Feng Jinfu bowed and replied, "I am Feng Jinfu, who came here to do business from Sichuan. I have long admired Mr. Mei Lanfang's reputation. I spent three dollars and finally bought a ticket for the show. Who knew that this woman was splashed with sewage. How could I go to the theater to watch the show? Besides, I didn't respect Mr. Mei Lanfang! If I go back to change my clothes, it will be too late. Are you angry?"
The man took out his pocket watch from his shirt pocket and pondered for a moment, and said, "It's okay, Mr. Feng, please go and change clothes. I told the theater to postpone the show for half an hour!" Feng Jinfu didn't know who he was, but after hearing this, he looked at the young man in a daze. Suddenly, someone in the crowd told him, "He is Boss Mei Lanfang."
Feng Jinfu was overjoyed and repeatedly thanked him. Besides, the theater is already crowded, and it is time to start the show. After about ten minutes, there is still no movement. So, people couldn't hold back, some applauding and some whistling. At this time, a manager came out of the backstage and clasped his fists to the audience and said, "Please be careful, gentlemen. Boss Mei is waiting for a Mr. Feng Jinfu from Sichuan. The performance will be postponed for half an hour. Please forgive me."
"Who is Feng Jinfu?"
"This person has such a big face, which makes Mei Lanfang postponed the performance for him!" The audience in the audience speculated and discussed. When Feng Jinfu changed his clothes and rushed to the theater, the audience's eyes focused on him.
While resting between the curtain, people walked towards Feng Jinfu and shook hands and said hello to him.That night, the chairman of a large Shanghai business bank and the boss of a silk factory who were watching the show also invited Feng Jinfu to go to Taibai Restaurant for a banquet the next day. A well-informed reporter posted a brief message on " declaration " the next day: "Feng Jinfu, a tycoon in Sichuan, fell into Shanghai and watched the show on Tianshan stage last night. Because of this, Mei Lanfang delayed the show for half an hour."
When this came, Feng Jinfu became famous in Shanghai!
Cheng Yanqiu sang "Life and Death"
During the Anti-Japanese War , the Japanese invaders occupied Beijing. Cheng Yanqiu has learned to grow vegetables in the suburbs with his noble national integrity and influence stage, and the audience respects him very much.
Anti-Japanese War won.
From September 16, 1945, he premiered his specialty show "June Snow" on the Temple of Heaven stage, and it was full of events. There are also hundreds of additional station tickets every day.
After the show ended that night, Cheng Yanqiu was unloading in the background. Suddenly, I heard Ni Xiaoshan, who was playing supporting roles, muttering. "I haven't heard of such a strange thing yet. How could anyone watch the show stay in the venue at night?"
Cheng Yanqiu asked casually, "What kind of person is that?"
Ni Xiaoshan laughed out loud and said, "That person is neither a fan nor a fan of the show. It is said that he is a rickshaw driver, named Wang Xiaoer!"
"Wang Xiaoer!" Cheng Yanqiu couldn't help but blurted out, then put on a coat and walked to the curtain. I saw the clearing-off yelling at a tall man with a skinny bone and scaly bones, "What a joke, we are a theater, not a hotel, you can't stay here overnight!"
heard Wang Xiaoer begging again. "Sir, since the Japanese came, I have not seen Mr. Cheng's play for many years. We are really anxious. Today, I have no money to buy tickets. I sold the quilt at home, and I finally had a feast for my eyes. When I go back, my wife will definitely quarrel with me. If I can be tolerant. After tomorrow, I will borrow some money to buy a quilt cover..."
Cheng Yanqiu heard this, the past from a few years ago appeared in his mind. It turned out that Wang Xiaoer's father had chartered a car for Cheng Yanqiu for a year. After the Japanese occupied Peiping, Cheng Yanqiu heard the news that the old coachman was bedridden. One night he prepared a gift to visit. At that moment, fifteen or sixteen coachman in the courtyard arrived. They cried to Cheng Yanqiu about the tragic situation of his family being destroyed by the Japanese butcher's knife. They were grateful to Cheng Yanqiu for not being threatened by the enemy and pseudo-war and striving for the Chinese people. They also hoped that the War of Resistance Against Japan would win soon, and then see Cheng Yanqiu's play.
Cheng Yanqiu was very moved and sang a companion lyrics of "Life and Death" to express his gratitude.
At this time, Cheng Yanqiu, who walked off the stage, smiled at the coachman and said, "Waiter, it turns out that you are the most!"
Wang Xiaoer looked at Cheng Yanqiu who was wearing a pair of clothes and was full of emotions, and said with tears: "Mr. Cheng, everyone misses you! They are thinking of ways to raise money to watch your show."
Cheng Yanqiu heard this, immediately asked Ni Xiaoshan to pay ten yuan to the accountant and gave it to Wang Xiaoer and said, "Don't worry, this little money is considered to be my invitation to everyone to watch the show."
Wang Xiaoer scratched his head and touched his cheeks. He was so happy that he felt like a flower was blooming. He said, "Thank you, Mr. Cheng", and then he left.
Cheng Yanqiu took off his clothes and slept in the bed, but he couldn't sleep for a long time. I thought to myself: The coachmen are determined to watch my show, but in fact they are to celebrate the victory of the Anti-Japanese War! He suddenly thought about how to sleep when Wang Xiaoer was not covered tonight? He suddenly got up and rolled up his blanket, called a car, and rushed straight to Tonggangou.
Wang Xiaoer was walking back happily, and was suddenly shocked by the car ringing in the middle of the night. He turned around and saw a rickshaw stopped. Cheng Yanqiu jumped out of the car and said, "Waiter, you just need to leave. You have no quilt tonight. How can you keep warm? I'll give this blanket to you!"
Wang Xiaoer took the blanket, knelt on the ground with a "thump", knocked his head, and said, "Mr. Cheng, how can I thank you?"
Cheng Yanqiu hurriedly helped him up and said, "What are you still grateful to me? Without everyone's encouragement and support for me, how could I, Cheng Yanqiu, have I fought against the enemy and puppet for a few years and will return to the stage today!"
The next day, this incident spread in the city of Peiping.In a few days, a large banner with long three and four literary works was hung at the door of the stage of the Temple of Heaven, with eight big words embroidered on it: "A generation of masters, craftsmanship serves the people." This is the intention of the rickshaw drivers to Cheng Yanqiu with their efforts and efforts.
