Taking the First Place

From what Tang Congshan said, he looked down on Xibao at a glance.

Song Youzhen was familiar with him and knew that he, like several team leaders in Xilian Society, was not only old-fashioned and conservative, but also a bit unruly and looked down on Kun Jiao.

I think they are just relying on their good looks and not practicing their martial arts properly. They just make money by showing off their coquettishness. They are sub-class characters and how can they be worthy of their guidance?

Ke Xibao is different from these people. He knows his own apprentice. When he first saw her energetic singing on the stage, he knew that this child loved singing from the bottom of his heart and understood the role.

In this troupe business, there are many artists with good voices and good work, but those who really understand the character and can interpret the character's life well are very rare.

Especially in the past two years, most of the seedlings in the majors were brought in to endure hardship because their families couldn't handle the situation and couldn't survive anymore.

Let alone eating these people into his mouth, I'm afraid he has never even seen Miss Jiao. You ask him to play the wealthy lady Xue Xiangling in "Suo Lin Bag" or to play the role of the rich girl in "Hua Tian Cuo"

Liu Yuyan.

He has never lived like this for a day, and has never seen such a person. How could he have such a good performance?

Kexibao is different.

When Song Youzhen first saw her, she knew that she was not a child from an ordinary family.

After spending these days together and asking around, he also guessed a little about Xibao's life experience, which strengthened his confidence in Xibao.

Since ancient times, among those who sang well in the opera industry, most of them came from a major.

But those amateurs who come from rich families are often more likely to sing well than those who come from a major.

The reason is naturally related to their wider network and the freedom to enter and exit major theaters. But the more important point is that they are literate and can more easily understand the characters, their lives and psychology, so it is easier to bring the audience into the play.

Song Youzhen felt that Xibao was also such a person.

Due to his health condition these days, he doesn't have much time to teach Xibao opera every day, and sometimes he even can't teach for several days in a row.

But every time I test her skills, I feel that she is much better than the last time, and she can act like what she wants.

This was the first time that he felt so comfortable teaching his apprentices. He always sighed, if his apprentices were as easy-going as Xibao, why was he still in such a miserable state and having to rely on help from others to survive?

I have long since started my own class as a class leader and made a lot of money by exploiting my apprentices.

Therefore, Tang Congshan looked down upon Xibao, and Song Youzhen was the first to be unhappy.

"What's wrong with the girl doll? In our opera house, there is a rule that girl dolls cannot go on stage? Or does our Xilian Club have this rule?"

Tang Congshan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Youzhen, you are confused. There is no such rule in the troupe business, and our Xilian Society has not yet had time to formulate such a rule, but the government has such a rule! Women cannot go on stage, you accept her

Being an apprentice, isn’t that a waste of time?”

"Why do you call it a waste of time?"

Song Youzhen was also anxious.

These people have never heard of Xibao's play, so they just talk nonsense.

If they heard Xibao's performance, they would probably be very sad about why they didn't come across such a good talent.

But Tang Congshan didn't ask him to finish what he said. He pulled him aside and whispered: "Youzhen, you need to restrain your temper! It's not like you don't know that Qiwen and Yun Qing have been with you for a long time.

If you don't deal with it, this time President Ye will set up Xilian Society in a team in the capital and recruit them to join the team. When they first learned that you were also the team leader, they were not happy as the boss, so President Ye reluctantly agreed because of his face.

Now if you have to accept this female doll and put the troupe at risk, they are not sure how to complain to President Ye.

You haven't officially joined the Xilian Club yet, and if you let people gossip and drop the topic at this time, your status as the leader of the team was determined by Mr. Niu, and naturally it cannot be taken away.

But it’s not certain whether you will still have prestige in front of students in the future.”

After studying opera with Song Youzhen for more than half a year, Xibao also gained some ideas about the structure of Xilian Society.

Qiwen and Yunqing, whom Tang Congshan just mentioned, are both leaders of Xilian Society.

One was named Song Qiwen and the other was named Su Yunqing. Unexpectedly, both of them were playing leading roles, so they collided with Song Youzhen.

As for what kind of conflict there is between the three of them, Xibao doesn't know.

Kexibao knows the rules of Xilianshe very well.

The club has a very strict assessment system, which not only assesses apprentices, but also class leaders.

The class leader can choose the apprentice, but similarly, the apprentice can also choose the class leader based on his or her own judgment.

If there are not enough students under the class leader during an assessment period, they will no longer be employed after the assessment period expires.

At that time, even if Mr. Niu acts as a guarantee, it will be of no use.

Of course, there is always a contingency in everything, and this rule is not dead.

"What if I can take first place?"

Xibao finally spoke.

Tang Congshan and Song Youzhen turned to look at her one after another. Even the four little carrot heads who had been immersed in drinking soup put down their bowls and chopsticks and stared at Xibao with round, bright black eyes.

What a nice voice. It would be even better if she could sing.

They have not been studying opera for long, but they are already able to tell the difference between nature and hard work.

How could Tang Congshan not hear it?

He was also stunned at this moment, still immersed in the crisp little movement of Xibaoling just now and didn't pull it out.

Xibao then stood up, looked into Tang Congshan's eyes and said again.

"If I can get the first place in the first assessment, my master's position at the top of the class will be kept. Am I also qualified to join Xilian Club?"

Xibao's eyes are beautiful, almond-shaped, black and white, and incredibly pure.

The eyelashes are dark, shiny, dense and neat, which can save a lot of materials when pretending.

She looked at Tang Congshan for a while, and Tang Congshan almost forgot what she had just asked, and subconsciously wanted to nod, but he was a well-known drummer after all, so he still had some determination.

After a while, he chuckled and said: "If you can get the first place, you will naturally be qualified to join our Xilian Society, and your position as master will not be affected. But how can you get the first place?

You are so arrogant at such a young age, you really have no regard for the many disciples of my Xilian Society!"

Not to mention that Tang Congshan hugged Xibao now and regarded Xibao as a flashy, arrogant kid. Even Song Youzhen was a little scared by her.

He hurriedly walked to Xibao and advised him: "Don't talk nonsense, do you know who your senior brothers are?"

Xibao's expression remained unchanged, and he glanced at the four little carrot heads beside the table. At this moment, each of them put down their bowls and chopsticks, and put their hands under the table honestly. His head was kept low, and he didn't dare to breathe.

.

It was probably because Tang Congshan had been controlling me so hard along the way, and I got scared whenever he heard his voice getting louder.

Song Youzhen also saw this scene, but still pulled Xibao back and warned: "Don't look at them like this, they are only a small part of the troupe.

Nowadays, we have more than 50 disciples in Xilian Society. Most of them are sent by the families of famous actors in the opera industry. Even the three sons of President Ye’s family are learning opera in the society.

How dare you boast that you can win the first place?"

"Suo Lin Nang" is a famous Hua Shan drama. It tells the story of a wealthy girl named Xue Xiangling (Hua Shan) who was very picky about her dowry before she got married. She lived a life of wealth and luxury, but on the day she became a monk, she encountered heavy rain on the road. She got married on the same day.

When they met the poor girl Zhao Shouzhen (in Qingyi in the early period and in colorful clothes in the later period), she knew that her family was poor and had no dowry, so she gave her dowry lock bag to the Zhao family.

Unfortunately, both of them were in the sedan that day and did not know each other's appearance. When Zhao asked her benefactor's name, Xue was upright and honest, saying that she did good deeds without asking for anything in return, so she only left her surname but not her name.

Six years later, Mrs. Xue returned home to visit her relatives, but encountered a flood on the road. Her whole family was separated and all her wealth was gone. After she was lucky enough to survive, she could only survive by working in a wealthy family. Only then did she realize that the world is suffering and it is not easy to be a servant.

Later, by some strange combination of circumstances, Mrs. Xue saw the Suolin bag that Mrs. Zhao's husband had given to her at home, and Mrs. Zhao discovered the clues. The two recognized each other and repaid their kindness.

This play is still very interesting. If you are interested, you can go and watch it.

Next, let’s talk about “Hua Tian Cuo”. Xi Bao will sing it later in the play, so I won’t mention it in the lyrics until it is mentioned in the text.

What can be said is that this is a relatively famous Huadan opera. The Huadan in it has many bright and lively scenes, which are lively and interesting. It is extremely beautiful to watch when it is performed. If you are interested, you can search it and take a look.
