Chapter 83 Storytelling
Storytelling is not memorization, it is not that memorizing the book as it is true. This is a storytelling. The first word of the storytelling is a review. First, review and then book are required to have something to comment. Each storyteller has a different understanding of the book's subject and the taste of it is different. As the saying goes, there is no consensus on the wording.
However, the artistic style required by storytelling is still relatively unified. First, it must first point out that the characters it depicts must be delicate and realistic, so that the audience can feel immersive. This is not a simple job. Opening your mouth alone can make the audience feel like watching a movie. This is impossible to finish without decades of effort.
When depicting the main characters in the storytelling, they will describe their appearance, etc., which is called "face opening". This emphasizes delicateness and reality. It is necessary to let the audience feel the character instantly. Before seeing the person, they should first lead to the spirit. Just like Zhuge Liang's face opening in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is: eight feet tall, with the same font, the face crown is like jade. The eyebrows are divided into eight colors, the eyes are like a star, the nose is like a jade pillar, the lips are like red vermilion, and the ears are shaved. The feather fan and the lunar scarf are covered with crane cloak, and the floating temperament is like a fairy.
"There are many things in the world, but it is hard to learn to write. I am pretending to be a civil and military man. It seems like a big drama." The art of storytelling is also relying solely on actors to open their mouths, gathering the life, Dan and Chou to their bodies, and smuggling everything in the furnace. The performance form is single, but the effect is surprisingly good. The success rate of this industry is also quite low, and it is difficult to learn to play the role.
Starting today, He Xiangdong also began to formally learn from Zhang Kuoru. On the day of his study, Zhang Kuoru briefly introduced the history and rules of storytelling to him, and then the practice of basic skills.
As expected, He Xiangdong's basic skills are very solid, and the art of crosstalk is very similar to storytelling. They also have similarities in teaching their disciples the practice of basic skills.
Crosstalk emphasizes speaking, learning, and singing, while storytelling emphasizes speaking, speaking, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying, saying,
Let me tell you first, storytelling is naturally about narrating stories, and this is all about speaking. Crosstalk is the same, and most of the content of crosstalk is mainly about speaking. He Xiangdong has practiced his lip skills for so long, and can be able to be free and free, and be calm in the Taoist story. The basic skills of this statement are naturally no problem. Of course, every sentence is warning people's hearts, and it is still far from listening to the automatic expression.
The performance in storytelling is the performance of the characters' dialogue, expressions, and movements. It should be expressed from multiple angles. This is similar to cross talk. He Xiangdong's work is the Five Elements Poem, which involves many historical figures, and various figures need to be expressed, as well as various characters involved in Guankou. Although this is different from storytelling, it is easy to learn if you are based here.
Comments are the top priority in storytelling. If the storytelling is not commented, the actors are incompetent. Comments can explain the background of the story, construct suspense, guide the audience into the story, and describe the personalities of each character more accurately. This is very common for actors, and this is the weakest part of He Xiangdong.
Gimmick is joke. There are few people in storytelling that make people laugh in crosstalk, and they usually laugh with tact. Mr. Shuanghouping, a master of Storytelling School, is very good at this. His Romance of the Gods nicknames every god. He is humorous and witty, and uses the word gimmick to the peak. People's evaluation of him is: in narrating the ancients, he secretly ridiculed current affairs without showing any horns, which makes people feel refreshed. The skill of gimmicking is not difficult for He Xiangdong, who was born in the crosstalk sect.
Learning has also become a skill, commonly known as the eight skills, and is widely used in storytelling. Learning mainly has two parts in storytelling, imitating natural sounds, and imitating human voices. To give a storytelling, you must work hard from your mouth, thunder, rain, horses and wars, and Wan Jun galloping all come from your mouth. This is very difficult, especially when you see kung fu. That night, He Xiangdong disturbed the sound of the restaurant. Zhang Kuoru was a little angry, but he was very happy. The reason is that He Xiangdong knew how to vent his skills, which saved him major trouble.
Of course, there are more and more advanced things in storytelling. The above mentioned are some basics for reference only. He Xiangdong, with his unique conditions and extraordinary talent, comforted Zhang Kuoru and taught him more attentively.
He Xiangdong also studied his skills very hard. Except for when he was learning from his master, he spent all of them here. He had never talked about Zhang Kuoru to his master. The key point was that he didn't know how to speak, so he could only remain silent and subconsciously chose to hide it.
Time flies, and the banned performance of Yi Zhou has arrived soon, and the news has been released long ago. Every time the audience asks about it, they will say it. Fang Wenqi and Yang San always talk about it on stage.
By the evening of the week, He Xiangdong was preparing for the backstage, but the audience was crazy. This small theater could seat hundreds of people, but nearly two hundred tickets were sold. This enthusiasm shocked everyone in the backstage.
Then they faced a huge problem, that is, there were not enough stools, and they could occasionally sell extra tickets, but there were not so many stools, and there were not so many stools prepared.
But the tickets were sold, so the audience couldn't stand. Lin Zhengjun made a quick decision to let all the actors in the theater run out to borrow stools from the shops next door, and it would be fine if they could not borrow them to rent them.
Soon, all the young men with big faces rushed out, just like a hundred ghosts walking at night, and looked really frightened at night.
Lin Zhengjun walked to He Xiangdong and said excitedly and excitedly: "Dongzi, Dongzi, tell me, why are you so popular?"
All the audiences who had been holding on for a week were exposed. This scene scared He Xiangdong, and he scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "There is no way to be good-looking."
Fang Wenqi looked up at the sky and said that this shameless guy had nothing to do with me.
Yang San also made the same move.
And Baifeng Mountain.
Finally, Lin Zhengjun looked at the three people and could only raise his head silently.
At the beginning, He Xiangdong appeared with a smile on his face.
As soon as he took this first step, the audience was ignited, and the applause suddenly burst into tears. The terrifying voice made He Xiangdong's ears a little deaf. He Xiangdong waved to the audience, but the applause couldn't stop.
Backstage, Yang San said to Fang Wenqi: "Look at Dongzi, this audience is absolutely amazing. He is only nine years old. This is a perfect big shot, Fang Qi, you have someone to follow."
Fang Wenqi smiled and said, "It's too early to say such things now. It's because he's only nine years old that I'm worried that artists are so popular when they are young. However, very few of these people can become famous in the future. It seems that only the Chang family is an exception in our crosstalk door. Unfortunately, they died young."
Yang San paused and said, "Do you have no confidence in Dongzi yet?"
Fang Wenqi said: "How can a person know his destiny? He just does his best. I hope this child can do everything well."
