Turbulent Times Chapter 470: Wang Junlin’s thoughts

At this time, an ordinary-looking singer on the stage was singing a song that Wang Junlin had never heard before in a melodious voice. Wang Junlin looked at the Goulan and nodded to Nie Xiaoyu, expressing that he understood Yes, and then waved to the buddy not far away.

"Guest officer, what do you need?" The little girl hurried over and said with a smile on her face.

"Get a pot of tea."

"Okay, wait a moment, guest officer, the tea will be here soon."

Xiao Er responded, and after a while, brought the tea.

Wang Junlin took a sip of the tea, and when he looked up again, the singer on the stage had retreated, and several women were dancing on it, with their sleeves fluttering, which was quite beautiful.

From the seats under the stage, there was a lot of applause. Seeing Xing Chu, he took out a few copper coins from his arms and threw them on.

When the copper coins were thrown on those dancing girls, they didn't dodge it, as if they had gotten used to it.

Wang Junlin looked at the dance on stage with great interest. This kind of dance full of classical and elegant beauty was more eye-catching than the dance in the brothel.

It's just that the behavior of the following audience members is a bit vulgar and distasteful. However, in this era, the status of actors and actresses is extremely low. Although there are many people who like to watch their performances, they look down on these actors in the bottom of their hearts.

This is different from the stars of the later generations. Everyone is an actor, and the difference in status and status is simply a difference.

…

…

"During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, due to the needs of people's culture and entertainment, Goulan appeared. Here, artists can perform Zaju, storytelling, storytelling, palace tunes, puppet shows, shadow plays, acrobatics, etc. The formation is of great significance. This is a place where folk artists perform to public audiences for a long time, and various tricks can communicate and absorb each other. Performances can be regularized and fixed. It allows the earliest artists and actors to have a stable performance venue and The lowest economic income is conducive to the improvement of art..." Nie Xiaoyu said it again after a while, which gave Wang Junlin the illusion that future generations would use computers to look up information.

However, according to Wang Junlin's current observation, the Goulan here is indeed equivalent to the theater of later generations. It mainly focuses on drama, song, dance, and storytelling. It is one of the few places of entertainment for people living at the bottom of society. Naturally, Wang Junlin didn't have much interest in these things, but he just came up with an idea and needed to know more about Goulan himself, so he read it carefully and observed it carefully.

"However, the Goulan at this time was still an early urban opera theater after all. It was an unfortunate event that collapsed and crushed the audience, so in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the temple platform with brick and wood structure gradually began to replace the Goulan.”

Nie Xiaoyu looked at the fence, there were about a hundred seats, and most of them were not full at this time. Wang Junlin drank a cup of tea for about half an hour, during which time there were two performances of singing and dancing on stage, and an opera , singing and dancing are acceptable, as for opera, in Wang Junlin's opinion, it is really a bit boring. However, when he thought of the entertainment activities and spiritual products that ordinary people lacked to the extreme in this era, he could understand why many people liked these programs that seemed boring to him.

Wang Junlin is naturally thinking about more than these things at this time - what he is thinking at this time is that this kind of public performance program has a very good influence on people's thinking and understanding and guides public opinion. Effect.

Wang Junlin is very clear that even in the later generations when almost everyone is a scholar, a historical TV series can make many people think that history is like this. Under the historical background, it is just a storyline set to cater to market demand. What certain big stars say and post on Weibo can easily influence, guide or mislead many people's choices and ideas. After all, no matter what time it is, most people lack accurate judgment and insight. And that's why celebrity advertising is so expensive.

Of course, due to the constraints of the times, it is impossible for the colleagues of these later generations of stars to reach such heights, but Wang Junlin can use another method to achieve a similar or the same goal.

Especially after he presided over or experienced the life-and-death public opinion battles with Changping King Qiu Rui, Yue Guogong Yang Su, former prince Yang Yong and Gao Ying, and Longxi Li's, he understood If used well, the power of these hooks in front of you is far more than that.

However, if you want to achieve your goals, the Goulan in front of you is far from enough in terms of scale, organizational structure, management model, performance type and method, especially the content of the performance.

"These performances are actually very boring, but people's spiritual entertainment is too scarce in this era. To be honest, for men, there is almost no spiritual entertainment except brothels. Women almost have no spiritual entertainment."

At least make it into the model of later theaters. Of course, don’t sing these lyrics, and don’t sing those boring plays. I believe that Journey to the West, The Legend of the White Snake, and Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio have been passed down through the ages, but this era has not yet The stories that appear must be more attractive, of course, there are also the martial arts novels of the two masters of later generations, Jin and Gu, as well as the classic novels of those online novel masters. He didn't write down much, but Wang Junlin knew that there must be a lot of information in Nie Xiaoyu's head.

"Sister Shuyi, they are coming down soon, what are you and your grandfather going to sing this time, "Dongqiao Girl"?" Behind the stage, a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old asked the girl next to her with a blushing face. The cute and cute girl.

"Sister Shuyi is on the stage? Then we can receive a lot of money!" Another girl said with a smile on her lips.

"Sister Shuyi sings beautifully, they will naturally give a little more reward... But those people will come to collect protection money again." The girl gave her a white look, looked forward with her head, and immediately said: "They're over, Sister Shuyi, hurry up."

The cute and cute woman smiled, and waited for the people who had finished singing the opera to come out before she helped her grandfather and walked in slowly.

The grandpa and grandson play the piano and sing really well, but it's okay to listen to once or twice, and there's nothing new after listening to it too much. Wang Junlin had no interest in reading any more, stood up from his seat, and began to visit the bar.

Just two steps away, there was a sudden burst of enthusiastic cheers from the audience. Wang Junlin turned his head and took a look, thinking, poor people, with such enthusiasm for such an entertainment performance, no, I want Integrate the Goulan as soon as possible, restructure according to the model of the theater, and firmly grasp this power in your own hands. At the same time, it will also create a rich spiritual appetite for the poor people of the Sui Dynasty, and by the way, improve the quality of life of these poorer ancient artists. and a slightly higher status.
