373, the courage of Cheng Dieyi (please complete the order)

Three years ago, Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou played Farewell My Concubine. Even though it was amazing and made people shine, most of them felt that it was because of Yu Ji. She looked too much like Yu Ji. She should be like this.

It looks like a normal performance, a "real Yu Ji" scored a lot of points.

Now the play performed by the two people has really reached the point of mastery and ease. In the past, everyone focused on the real Yu Ji, but now the theater audience can turn their eyes to dramas other than Yu Ji and appreciate the play itself.

attainments.

Sing the drama again.

The excitement of the audience outside the theater was seduced by the scenes and reached a fever pitch.

Not only did no theatergoers present have any refunds, but because Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou performed the whole show today, many theatergoers outside bought tickets and wanted to go to Tianhe Tea Garden to watch it.

Some of the theatergoers also heard that Bai Gui was here, so they wanted to see his true appearance.

Below the stage, the places to stay are becoming increasingly scarce.

"Meihe, look, aren't those Mrs. Leng and Miss Leng from Leng's house?"

"Why did they arrive at Tianhe Tea Garden and enter the private room next door?"

While Bai Gui was enjoying the drama, Bai Xiuzhu, who was standing next to him, suddenly caught a glimpse of Mrs. Leng and Leng Qingqiu in the bustling crowd, and whispered in surprise.

There are many theaters in Yanjing, and meeting familiar people is a rare thing.

As for the economic situation of Leng Zhai, Bai Xiuzhu also had some knowledge. It was impossible for a poor scholarly family to have the money to go to Tianhe Tea Garden to listen to the opera, and the seats were still in the box.

Box theater tickets are not expensive, ranging from a few silver dollars to dozens of silver dollars.

It depends on the category and number of people in the box.

Leng Zhai can afford this money.

But this is listening to a play, and it is not a major expense item. If Leng Zhai lived like this, his family would have collapsed a long time ago. If he can save a little money on weekdays, it is a little money, and he will not be so extravagant and wasteful. If Leng Zhai really likes to listen

For the show, you can purchase ordinary tickets for 50 cents each.

"It's probably because of Sister Huichang..."

"Tianhe Tea Garden is a place where Sister Huichang and concubines from Jin Mansion often come. Recently, Jin Yanxi is pursuing Leng Qingqiu... The theater tickets Leng Qingqiu gave last time were also tickets from Tianhe Tea Garden."

Bai Gui also saw Leng Qingqiu,

He nodded and said.

The reason why he and Bai Xiuzhu came to Tianhe Tea Garden to listen to a play for the first time was because Cheng Huichang, the second young lady of the Jin family, gave him, Bai Xiuzhu, and Mrs. Bai three theater tickets.

Therefore, although there are many theaters in Yanjing, it is not a surprise to happen to come to Tianhe Tea Garden.

Every theater will have a certain number of regular customers.

Similarly, theatergoers who have developed a habit of spending money will not easily change the theater where they have been listening to plays unless a new famous actor appears in another theater.

Therefore, when Jin Yanxi pursues Leng Qingqiu and invites her to the theater, she naturally goes to the theater aficionados in Jin's mansion to ask for theater tickets. He has money, but not much left, and every penny he can save is worth it.

When Bai Xiuzhu heard this, she was relieved and stopped paying attention to the matter.

They don't have a close relationship with Leng Zhai.

Although Liu Baoer and Leng Qingqiu have a good relationship, it has little to do with them. At most, they can just ask out of curiosity, and no matter how much, they won't get involved.

Lean less.

The scene in Farewell My Concubine is close to loneliness.

Yu Ji danced a sword flower, bowed and saluted, and said: "Today's play is sung by me for Mr. Bai to repay Mr. Bai's kindness to me. Therefore, all the expenses for this stage performance, including the expenses for everyone to watch, I

My senior brother and I have decided to donate it to charity."

"I am clarifying this matter now, instead of talking about it afterward. I just want everyone to be a witness and recognize the amount of money. In order to avoid saying that I, Cheng Dieyi, have embezzled money, it is not a big deal to spread the word and insult my reputation. But if it insults Mr. Bai

It’s Dieyi’s fault for his good reputation.”

If you donate afterward, how much will you donate? Is the money donated the entire amount for today?

Is it just for fame and reputation?

There will always be some disdainful people who spread rumors.

If you want to do a simple good deed well, you must also make a plan, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble afterwards.

Although Cheng Dieyi became famous very quickly, he has been working hard in the lower-class industry for so many years. From a low-level person to a famous actor in the capital and Jinmen, he is called Boss Cheng, and the entire theater troupe depends on him to support him.

, he is ignorant, he is not experienced in dealing with things, but he feels that he is not a novice.

A person without any means, even if he gets on the stage and becomes famous, will still die young!

“Boss Cheng and Duan are awesome!”

"Based on the kindness of Boss Cheng and Boss Duan, I, Lao Huang, will definitely support them from now on."

"..."

When the audience heard these words, they all felt that they were playing the right role for the wrong person, and as they watched the performance one by one, they became more generous.

In less than a while, the treasures for viewing had piled up into a small mountain.



Mrs. Leng and Leng Qingqiu, who had just entered the ground floor box, heard Cheng Dieyi's words.

I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Is Boss Cheng singing the whole show today, or is it just to thank Mr. Bai?"

Leng Qingqiu was stunned.

Mrs. Leng likes to listen to operas, and her daughter also likes to listen to operas. In recent years, Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou are the most popular actors.

Anyone who invites two people to sing a play is a big deal.

Can be reported in newspapers.

However, this matter falls on Bai Gui, but it is not worth mentioning.

a piece of cake!

But this incident really shocked Leng Qingqiu.

In the past, although she knew that Bai Gui's status and reputation were not low, Bai Gui's residence was next door to Leng's residence, separated by a wall, so despite the distance, it was not untouchable.

But at this moment... Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou, who made her think they were the protagonists, didn't even have the slightest air of pretense in front of Bai Gui. Bai Gui didn't like to listen to theater very much and couldn't come to the theater a few times a year.

Click on her and she still understands a little bit.

But today, for this one visit, the famous actor will sing and act as his accompaniment...

This kind of card is really enviable.



Tianzi box.

"Boss Cheng and Duan are very brave this time."

"This donation is at least several thousand pieces of cash."

Bai Gui sighed with emotion when he heard Cheng Dieyi's words.

The appearance fee for actors in the early Republic of China was not low.

According to a report in the Beijing News at the time, the amount of money a role received for a role was beyond the reach of ordinary working-class people. Not to mention the first-line actors, only the second- and third-line actors in the theater troupe could earn ten to twenty silver dollars for each performance.

.The lowest-level performers can also get two or three yuan.

Tan Xinpei, who had the highest acting role at that time, had a silver tattoo of 500 taels per scene in the late Qing Dynasty, which was two to three times more than the first-class officials at that time. After the Republic of China, Tan Xinpei came to Shanghai in 1912

The monthly salary of the city singing hall was as high as 10,000 yuan. It was even higher than the salary of senior officials and professors at that time, much higher!

Once, Yuan Shoufu celebrated his birthday and invited famous actors from Yanjing to perform operas to celebrate his birthday. He rewarded Sun Juxian with two hundred silver dollars. However, Sun Juxian was extremely disdainful of the two hundred silver dollars and said: "Since the imperial court enshrined the old Buddha, I have only seen two hundred silver coins, not two hundred silver dollars."

Silver dollars, what do you mean when I become emperor, the two hundred silver dollars I reward you are really Cheng Yaojin sitting in Wagang Village, shouting, a strong wind is coming, a nouveau riche boy, not worth mentioning. "

Of course, Sun Juxian did not dare to challenge Yuan Shoufu face to face, but after leaving the city gate, he scattered the two hundred silver dollars directly.

For example, the beauty Lu Sujuan, who was born in the Bada Hutong, became popular in the plum singing school. She was as famous as Xue Yanqin for a while. She was said to be "the first person to recommend Xue Yanqin when talking about art, and only Lu Sujuan is the best when talking about beauty.uukanshu.com www.uukanshu.com" Businessman Wang Shaozhai got it

Lu Sujuan was given 10,000 to 20,000 silver dollars a month for daily expenses, and another 80,000 silver dollars were allocated as a performing arts fund.

But...it seems like you can make so much money just by playing a show.

But we must also give the little ones below a way to survive.

You can't just let the actors eat and not feed the people below. Therefore, it is rare for a famous actor to perform for the entire audience, and they usually appear in the finale. Similarly, it is unsustainable to sing for the entire audience with a useless voice.

Therefore, although Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou made the donation this time, it was not necessarily an embarrassing thing, but it was still a token of their intention.

Charity performances, if charity performances are frequent, the entire theater circle will have no way of surviving.

After all... whoever becomes a horn does not want to be successful or famous, nor does he want to be a good person. Donating once is fine, but if you donate too much, where will the other horns go?
