Chapter 354 Friendship

() Found the way home!

Chen Fang greeted Li Hui and the others and followed Zhao Yuming to the second floor booth together. These are several seats reserved for the teahouse. This is also a tradition left by old times, so as to facilitate people who are not good at offending to listen to crosstalk.

Zhao Yuming ordered the staff to help with the pot of tea, then took the plate of peanuts and melon seeds, and then said goodbye to the backstage. Chen Fang and Qin Mohan sat near the guardrail, and listened to crosstalk like the people next to them.

The two old actors on the stage have finished performing, and two young crosstalk actors have come up. Chen Fang and Qin Mohan have also met them in the background just now. After bowing to the audience below, they called the audience on the second floor.

They were talking about a "Cartoon Talk about Foreign Languages". The two of them had a solid basic skills, and the jokes they performed were close to the times. They also interacted with the audience from time to time, which made people very happy. After the two went down, they took another "Tianmen Talk" performed by a young actor and came to the finale of this afternoon. Shao Ma Ye and his partner were also student Huang Zuming.

Ma Zhiming's crosstalk is very different from his father Ma Shanli. Most of the master Ma Shanli stand-up comedy, standing alone on the stage, just like chatting about home, and you will suddenly burst into funny and humor in your kindness and leisure, making you laugh. Ma Zhiming uses his profound basic skills more to combine praise and tease, not being tepid, not being impatient, and slowly introduces the audience into his jokes, forming his own unique charm.

After listening to a passage from "Article Meeting", Chen Fang couldn't help but sigh: "I am really a famous crosstalk artist. You see, they don't make funny jokes or talk dirty jokes, which can make the audience laugh and listen to them all the time."

"Why do I feel that they are a little different from Xiangwenshe?" Qin Mohan couldn't help but ask questions in his heart. The two had gone to Xiangwenshe to listen to crosstalk many times in Yanjing. Although Qin Mohan listened to them for the first time in Tianjin, he also felt the difference.

"There are some differences. Xiang Wenshe's crosstalk is some of the traditions of artists in old age. It is probably related to Uncle He's training after following his master to travel to the dock. Look at Uncle He and Uncle Xue can interact with the audience below for five or six minutes on the stage. This is the rule of the past. You have to bring up the atmosphere before." Chen Fang explained to Qin Mohan: "And the crosstalk in Tianjin is more about teahouse crosstalk, which emphasizes the basic skills of being straight and relying on one's own strength to amuse the audience."

"Why did I hear that Tianjin's crosstalk doesn't like Uncle He and the others?" Qin Mohan looked at Chen Fang with a gossip and asked in a low voice.

Chen Fang smiled and said, "They have more grudges and they can't finish talking about them all night. Next time I buy a copy of "Cross Talk Master" for you, which is written in detail."

"I don't even want to say that, I'll help me advertise." Qin Mohan curled his lips and listened to the two of them performing crosstalk.

Ma Zhiming and Huang Zuming are now performing "The Tree Without Leaves". A joke that was originally a joke was told so much that they made the audience laugh, which made the audience laugh. This is the charm of teahouse crosstalk.

Chen Fang couldn't help but think that there are many times why everyone feels that crosstalk is not funny? In fact, this crosstalk itself doesn't matter much. One of the main reasons is that crosstalk still needs to fit the audience. If you put yourself high, the audience will look up at you. The neck you look up at you hurts. Who will be happy?

As the gateway to Yanjing, Tianjin, the capital of canal transportation, has always been known as the northern food capital. Tianjin cuisine is also known as the "palace, merchant, restaurant, door, and family", that is, the main cuisine consists of palace dishes, commercial dishes, mansion dishes, house dishes and family dishes. Among them, the "Eight Great Champions", "Nine Buildings" and "Top Ten Restaurants" are the most famous.

The "Eight Great Masters" have long disappeared from the fireworks of history, leaving only a reputation that still echoes through word-of-mouth among the old Tianjin people. However, there are still many Nine Buildings. Today, the place where Chen Fang invited dinner is Huifang Building, one of the original Nine Buildings.

"Master Ma, please come in." Chen Fang greeted Ma Zhiming.

"Please!" Ma Zhiming entered with Chen Fang very politely. He was a junior visit in the teahouse just now. He was able to take a stand. Now the other party is treating him. If he is holding the stand, it will be a bit over.

In addition to his partner Huang Zuming, who followed Ma Zhiming to the banquet, he also accompanied Zhao Yuming, whom Chen Fang had been in touch with him.

Several people sat down one after another, and Ma Zhiming introduced Zhao Yuming to Chen Fang. Now Ma Zhiming is just named in the Tianjin Music Association, and Zhao Yuming is basically responsible for other things.

Chen Fang handed the menu to Ma Zhiming: "Master Ma, I'm having a meal together for the first time. I don't know what you have to eat. Moreover, you are from Old Tianjin, so you can arrange this dish!"

Ma Zhiming was polite, then asked about the taboos present, called the waiter up, and asked her to arrange several special dishes from Huifanglou, roasted beef tongue tail, braised beef bones, fried lake shrimp, braised rice rice slices, etc. The one that Qin Mohan liked the most was the most native dumpling soup in their family.

"Girl, how about it? Fanglou's broth is good now." Ma Zhiming looked at Qin Mohan and drank a small bowl, but he was still unsatisfied, so he let Chen Fang make her a bowl.

"You are authentic, Mr. Ma." Qin Mohan wiped the soup at the corner of his mouth with a tissue: "If it was our first time here, we would definitely not order this soup."

Chen put the half bowl of dumpling soup aside and put the newly served half a bowl of dumpling soup in front of Qin Mohan: "My Master Confucius once said: Eat it never tires away from fine food, and stew it is fine. It is hard to stop if you can do it to the extreme."

"It's good to have a good family background." Ma Zhiming praised: "Although our crosstalk sect has never been favored by orthodox scholars, we have no less understanding of food and drink than others. Our crosstalk sect has "On Eating", and "Reporting for the Name of a Dish" is all related to food. This is the place where we often discuss food."

"Yes, Master Ma said in crosstalk: If you want to have a partner, go to Huifanglou!" Chen Fang smiled and said, "Hua Fanglou is famous because of Master Ma's words."

The dishes at Huifanglou are really good, with a halal flavor, which is very suitable for Qin Mohan, who is used to the Western Xinjiang flavor. She ate several slices of a braised beef tail.

"Ma Ye, thank you for your old age in the filming venue of our company crew." Chen Fang picked up the tea cup and replaced the wine with tea for a long time. Ma Zhiming belongs to Hui people and strictly restricts himself in accordance with the tradition of teaching, avoiding wine and pork.

"You don't have to be so polite. No matter what, the Beijing-Tianjin folk art industry is a family." Ma Zhiming looked at Chen Fang and remembered the past: "When I was learning art with Master Yang, my senior sister secretly stuffed me a lot of delicious food." It was a joke that was easy to tell crosstalk. Seeing Chen Fang and the others interested, Ma Zhiming said a few interesting things about learning art with his master before, which made everyone laugh.

"Chen Fang, if you need any help in Tianjin in the future, I will tell Yuming directly that he is now on behalf of our Crosstalk Gate and is in the Qu Association."

Chen Fang toasted him with a cup: "I'll trouble Brother Zhao in the future. Recently, we have a play to shoot in Tianjin. There will be more characters needed in this drama. At that time, it may be difficult for Brother Zhao to contact some actors from Tianjin."

"Is that so? The relationship is good. If you have something to do, please say hello." Zhao Yuming hurriedly responded.

With a meal, the relationship between the two parties was considered to be in contact. With the help of the Tianjin Music Association, there will be less trouble during filming. With the promise of calmness, Zhao Yuming also gave Tianjin actors more opportunities to act, and both sides won the win.

After leaving Huifang Building, Chen Fang and Qin Mohan drove back to Yanjing. Although the traffic flow of the Beijing-Tianjin Expressway was quite high on Friday, fortunately there was no accident delay.

Qin Mohan took a nap after leaving Tianjin and woke up before he got off the Beijing-Tianjin Expressway: "It's only an hour? Tianjin is so close to Yanjing. If Yanjing builds the Seventh Ring Road one day, will it be connected to Tianjin?"

"Maybe I will be able to build a house above 20 rings one day." Chen Fang said with a smile: "I'll tell you a joke, saying that a man in Henan Province promised his girlfriend to buy a house within 25 rings of Yanjing and marry her into the house. My girlfriend was moved and promised her. Later, when she went on a business trip to Yanjing, she asked the taxi driver: Where is the 25 ring in Yanjing? The driver is also a kid, so she teased her and said: Yanjing's 7 and 8 rings are in northern Hebei, 9 and 10 rings are in Quancheng, and 25 rings are probably in central Henan Province."

"Haha!" Qin Mohan, who had a low laugh, couldn't help but smile and glanced at Chen Fang: "In your eyes, we girls are just that material, right? We buy a house and buy a 25-ring. Why don't you say you can buy a fifty-ring, and include all the Western Xinjiang in it."

"I don't need it. My girlfriend is pure and pure, like a fairy. It's a blasphemy to compare any material to her. Her beauty is unimaginable because her beauty has occupied my imagination." Chen Fang's sweet words slowly made Qin Mohan's eyes bent, and he turned his head to stare at the driving Shen Fang, and the corners of his mouth could not hide his smile.

"God words!" Qin Mohan curled his legs in the passenger seat, looked at Shen Fang who was driving and said, "No wonder people said that they would rather believe that there are ghosts in this world than believe in a man's broken mouth."

"Tsk, now you dislike it?" Chen Fang teased: "I don't know who used his cherry mouth to kiss my broken mouth reluctantly."

Qin Mohan found that even the bickering was just him, so he didn't want to pay attention to him. Seeing that the Yanjing Fifth Ring Road had already entered, she suddenly sounded a humming tune, and she couldn't help but hum:

“Ah~Fifth Ring Road,

You have one more link than the fourth ring road~”

I just hummed a sentence and couldn't help laughing: "Is it a bit too much for you to change the 'Peony Song' to 'Five Ring Song' so straightforward? Teacher David Jiang won't cause trouble for you, right?"

"No, the songwriter of this song gave the copyright to the Conservatory of Music. Last time I asked Dean Zhang of the college, he said that if I need it, I will give me permission."

"So you bought it for 100 million yuan." Qin Mohan sighed with his forehead.

“Ah…Five Rings…

You have one more link than the fourth ring road,

Ah…Five Rings…

You're one less ring than the Sixth Ring Road

…”
