Chapter 20 The Real Monkey Trainer(1/2)
Master Yang naturally knew about double acts.
And after Li Shangen mentioned this, he immediately realized and understood Li Shangen’s thoughts.
It became even simpler after that. Master Yang needed Ding Zheng to attract popularity, and Ding Zheng needed more money.
The two sides coincided and decided to negotiate a cooperation directly!
More importantly, according to the plot of the movie, Liang Kuan, one of Huang Feihong's apprentices, happened to work in this dock troupe after he arrived in the provincial capital!
Liang Kuan himself has good skills and has a good character. If he can help Ding Zheng and Li Shangen, it can be considered a help!
Moreover, Master Yang also gave Li Shangen a very high salary.
For the time being, they are only a small part higher than Li Shangen and Ding Zheng playing monkeys every day outside, but after the show is arranged and it is very popular, they will also receive a large share of the show tickets!
The theater also includes food and accommodation, which can save a lot of money.
The next day, Li Shangen took Ding Zheng to perform outside as usual.
Although the cooperation has been negotiated, there are still many preliminary preparations.
For example, who will dubb Ding Zheng, such thankless things that only help others, few people are willing to do.
Master Yang even decided to go on his own if he really couldn't find someone.
Although he is a little old, he still hasn't lost his skills!
Li Shangen is also in the intervals between normal street performances, and at the beginning and end, constantly promoting their upcoming performances at the dock troupe to play the real Monkey King.
Whether or not you can earn the money Ding needs for martial arts practice depends on this wave, so you must naturally pay attention to it.
After listening to Li Shangen's publicity, people were looking forward to it.
I have seen monkeys playing, but I have never seen monkeys playing on the stage!
This is really new!
A few days later.
Li Shangen and Ding Zheng left their original housing and went to the wharf.
I originally planned to call Yan Zhendong, but Yan Zhendong refused, afraid that he would teach a monkey to practice martial arts, so he was a little embarrassed in the troupe.
But in fact, Yan Zhendong had other plans.
After teaching Ding Zheng to make so much money by practicing martial arts, Yan Zhendong felt that he might have found a way to make a fortune.
That is opening a martial arts school!
He must try it himself, and maybe he will become a master.
Ding Zheng had no choice but to prepare for his future run.
In fact, Ding Zheng has learned all Yan Zhendong's three skills.
However, Yan Zhendong has more experience in practicing iron cloth shirts, so Ding Zheng still needs the other party to provide stimulation and help.
And about Yan Zhendong's desire to open a martial arts school.
Ding Zheng had no idea and even expressed his support.
Although Yan Zhendong is a villain in the movie.
But after getting along these days.
Ding Zheng found that he was not bad enough to be unforgivable and was quite principled in doing things.
Ding Zheng felt that if Yan Zhendong was tortured by some insults and poverty, he should be able to preserve goodness and morality and be a good person.
...
Dock troupe.
As the name suggests, it is naturally located at the pier.
A large shed built from wood and thick bamboo in the shallow bay where the waves are calm all year round.
In summer, I listen to opera on the sea and blow the sea breeze, which has to be said to be of a unique charm.
The dock troupe is huge, and in addition to the high stage, there is also a large audience.
There are even a few VIP seats specially set up. In addition, Yang's class master has a wide connection and often invites famous actors to perform. Some people with status and status also like to listen when they are idle.
Li Shangen brought Ding Zheng to the troupe, and Master Yang brought all the staff of the troupe to greet him early on at the dock, showing great respect.
There are also a huge number of people watching the fun.
When Ding Zheng appeared, everyone shouted and welcomed.
Some people in the troupe who had watched Ding Zheng's performance began to stir up.
"Divine Monkey, laugh!"
Hearing the voice behind, Ding Zheng ignored it.
But Li Shangen, who was walking next to him, suddenly shouted: "Laugh!"
Ding Zheng paused, turned around reluctantly, and grinned.
Li Shangen looked calm next to him, but he was filled with joy.
Since he met Ding Zheng, he has never commanded this strange monkey so casually!
Now he has finally turned over and sang the serf.
"Divine Monkey, turn it over!"
Another sound came out.
Ding Zheng immediately threw a warning look at Li Shangen.
Li Shangen raised his eyebrows proudly, held his smile, raised his hand up and said, "Flip!"
Ding Zheng clenched his fists angrily, but he still endured it and turned around in a good manner, which attracted a burst of cheers after a while.
"There is no one else that looks good to you!" Ding Zheng looked at Li Shangen's smug look, and his heart kept repeating that it was not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.
This is why.
It was because before coming to the opera troupe, Ding Zheng discussed with Li Shangen.
No matter what Ding Zheng does at any time, as long as Li Shangen sees it, he has to shout at Ding Zheng twice at any time and anywhere, and make gestures and commands.
You must make others unable to understand and command.
And look confident.
Make Li Shangen look like a real monkey training master.
This can most effectively reduce the halo on Ding Zheng and attract more attention to Li Shangen!
The dock troupe can accommodate more audiences and will naturally attract more and more dangerous people's attention.
If Ding Zheng performs too extraordinary and becomes a divine monkey that everyone wants to figure out, it is very likely to bring about an unknown crisis.
But if Li Shangen did this, Ding Zheng would have all his extraordinary skills and would have divided it into Li Shangen.
When others see it, they will only sigh that Li Shangen is a good at training monkeys, and he also happened to meet an outstanding spiritual monkey.
Ding Zheng can try to be low-key and develop in a vulgar way.
In order to make Li Shangen, the monkey training master, more real.
They agreed that when there are people, especially many, Li Shangen can really direct Ding Zheng to do some small things.
To achieve more obvious results.
However, Ding Zheng also warned Li Shangen not to take the opportunity to mess around.
However, Li Shangen clearly agreed well at that time, but now he looks like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. He seizes the opportunity to play with Ding Zheng.
"Flip!" Li Shangen made Ding Zheng turn it over again, with a smile on his face.
Of course he was not afraid of Ding Zheng's revenge.
He knew that he would not do anything excessive, at most he would be disgusting Ding Zheng.
After all, Ding Zheng has always been the leader, and now that Li Shangen is the master, of course, he has to seize the opportunity to practice this dead monkey well.
"Let you spend my money!"
"Let you get big!"
Every time Li Shangen commands, he will settle the accounts in his heart.
Just walking from the door of the opera troupe to the house arranged by Master Yang has become the most shameful experience of Ding Zheng since time traveling.
...
"This is the costume, this is what the monkey needs to do when he is on stage. King Li Monkey first see if there is any problem, we can make changes!"
As soon as he arrived at the troupe, Master Yang couldn't wait to take out the "script" belonging to Ding Zheng.
With the continuous advertising, the dock troupe, the return of the Great Sage, has spread all around and is extremely popular.
