This star just wants to learn

Chapter 736: Amazing Skills



Gan Hengxu used a bevel pen dipped in light brown. Before the official performance, he needed to put on makeup for himself...

Unlike the pretty Hua Dan, Xiaosheng's eyebrows are thicker and the eyebrow peaks are slightly raised, making them look sharp and angular.

He used a gray eyebrow pencil to draw his eyebrows one by one on top of the brown ones to give them a three-dimensional effect. He was already familiar with these things.

His reputation as a Peking Opera prodigy is not for nothing. He learned opera at the age of six, started performing at the age of eight, and was able to perform on stage at the age of ten.

When he was twelve years old, he signed with his previous agency and officially recorded a Peking Opera album...

Otherwise, he would not have been exposed to the entertainment industry. Unexpectedly, this unexpected experience inadvertently opened the door to a new world for him.

Gan Hengxu looked at himself in the mirror, and his thoughts were instantly drawn back to that year.

At a young age, he quickly became popular because of this record, and even opera, a declining traditional art, became popular for a while.

It was this incident that made everyone in the theater troupe realize that if they want to rejuvenate the art of opera, the power of new media cannot be ignored.

Gan Hengxu didn't understand anything at that time. He only remembers his master touching his head and asking, "Do you want your opera to be liked by more people?"

He nodded, he thought, he really wanted to, he wanted to contribute to the opera he loved, so he stepped into the entertainment industry with half a foot, he was still a actor and an artist...

But Gan Hengxu never regarded himself as a star. The reason why he became an artist was just to broaden the path of opera and find a new path for Peking Opera in the new era.

Even if he doesn't find it, if he can become popular in the entertainment industry and rely on celebrity influence, he can promote the development of opera.

This generation needed someone to stand up. He didn't want to place his hopes on others, so he decided to stand up himself...

Gan Hengxu has never regretted his choice. At least, because he entered the entertainment industry, he met Pu Tong and the others and made a group of true friends.

He put on eyeliner, dressed up and got ready. No matter what, he had to go all out for today's performance, both for himself and the troupe.

The city of Huailin has many stories that must be told to him, and it is for this reason that the first stop of their tour was chosen here.

Looking up at Cheng Binglin, he saw that his master was sixty-seven or eighteen years old, with an elegant appearance, tall and thin body, and a bookish look on his face.

"From now on, it will be your young people's world!"

He patted Gan Hengxu's shoulder. Before he knew it, his apprentice was already more than half a head taller than him!

Gan Hengxu nodded slightly. Following his master for so many years, he could understand many things with just his eyes and movements.

Today, let’s see how he sings a good show!

Pei Qingfeng put on his reading glasses and scrolled through the live broadcast on his mobile phone boredly.

He half-squinted his eyes, as if he was wondering how to find the opera live broadcast room today...

Although the little old man looks bloated and ordinary in appearance, don't underestimate him. This is a visiting professor at Beijing University, a well-known cultural scholar, and a famous historical scholar in China.

His works such as "The Storm of the Yan Empire" and "The End of the Imperial Court" have been translated into seven languages ​​and distributed in more than ten countries, with cumulative sales of hundreds of millions of copies.

He is a leading figure in history and opera culture. He may not necessarily be able to act, but he can definitely appreciate it...

He knew this theater well. As a long-established theater troupe that had been in operation for two to three hundred years, it was definitely quite famous in the industry. There were many old guys in it who actually had good personal relationships with him.

However, he specifically looked for the live broadcast today, and he obviously came prepared. On the one hand, he wanted to get addicted to the theater, and on the other hand, he also wanted to take this opportunity to see how the new generation of this theater troupe was doing.

He tinkered for a long time but couldn't understand the debugging, so he angrily called his granddaughter and asked her to click into the live broadcast room.

The opera stage had already begun, but he still wasted a lot of time and was actually a little late. Pei Qingfeng secretly thought it was a pity and quickly took his seat to continue watching.

On the stage, a female actor was singing solo. His voice was ethereal, round, and long-lasting. His natural conditions were definitely better than those of most Qingyi Kunlings.

It can be seen that his basic skills in Peking Opera are very solid, and he is definitely a boy's skill. He must have received a very rigorous training when he was a child.

But...

Pei Qingfeng sighed. His training was quite rigorous, but it was a bit too superficial and not complete and refined enough.

Focusing only on quantity but not quality, this level of training can only help him lay a solid foundation, but it cannot help him improve his opera skills to another level.

To put it bluntly, this is a wild path, and this is the upper limit.

Many opera performers stay in this realm for the entirety of their lives. It is easy to get started but difficult to get started.

However, this kid is not very old, so he is considered a rare "uncut jade". If he realizes something in the future, he may not be able to become a famous actress.

How does this old guy Cheng Binglin teach his disciples? It’s really...

Just when he was questioning the strength of the new generation of the troupe, Hua Dan's performance was over. After a brief intermission, a handsome martial artist wearing a plain white puffed hat and a plain white satin tight-fitting red velvet rope was tied up with a cross. Got the stage.

Pei Qingfeng frowned, this guy has such a wonderful temperament!

Gan Hengxu joined hands and bowed to the audience. Xie Mu and others in the audience immediately stood up and greeted him twice.

Come on, they are professionals!

When the audience calmed down, Gan Hengxu's face became solemn, his eyes focused, he raised his hand and gently stroked the long beard that did not exist under his chin.

"The sky is full of tears, the wind knife tears the rain curtains. The bells on the eaves ring with resentment, and the falling trees rustle."

The first four lines of the song are very sad and tragic when he sings them.

Even without the miserable Beijing and Hu voices as accompaniment, it almost brought Pei Qingfeng, a veteran theater fan with an overly artistic talent, to tears.

"Chang Tian~~weeps~~eyes, the wind knife tears the rain curtain~~ahhhh..."

After singing two lines along with the rhyme, Gan Hengxu's performance already won the applause of the whole house. Even Pu Tong, who was watching from the backstage, did not expect that this guy could be so handsome in opera!

After singing the first four lines of the rocking board, Gan Hengxu immediately covered his face and wept, and continued to sing a cappella part of Anti-Erhuang: "Heartbroken and filled with sorrow. Looking back at the sword pavilion, he covered his face and wept, and tears rained down like flying rain."

Tradition needs to be inherited, and sometimes, you can also add some of your own understanding.

Gan Hengxu ran in a small circle on the same spot, flinging out his Liuyun Fei sleeve with his left hand, holding his forehead with his right hand, diving down, twisting into a lazy and ethereal posture.

He had a leisurely look on his face, his eyes were wandering, and he softly sang an anti-erotic guide: "Suddenly I heard the servants coming..."

Sun Yilin in the crowd raised his head and looked far away, his eyes wet unconsciously.
