At the music awards ceremony, an electric guitar was quite simple, and a staff member quickly brought a Fender SQ50sCV series electric guitar.
After adjusting the pitch slightly, Su Bai cleared his throat again.
"Are you ready?"
Everyone was really curious about Su Bai's actions. Everyone present was from the music industry. Whether they liked it or not, they at least had some understanding of opera.
I have never heard of anyone using a guitar to perform Peking Opera, so I was extremely curious for a moment!
A very rock chord was swept out, Su Bai suppressed his throat, and sang with a high and powerful voice
"My Lord, come closer and take a closer look.
It says Qin Xianglian is 32 years old
Suing the current imperial consort
Deceiving the king and hiding the truth from the emperor
A man who regrets his marriage seeks a lover
The complaint was left in the lobby of a certain place!"
(The song is included in the Easter egg chapter. It is recommended to listen to it before reading it again.)
This is the final section of the famous Peking Opera excerpt "The Case of the Chopping of the Beauty." The lyrics are correct, and the general tune is fine...
But it’s just fucking magical!
Su Bai directly gave this Peking Opera a rock feel!
[Holy crap! Is Peking Opera really that good?!]
【Let me search, what is this paragraph called? 】
[I'm from the Chinese Opera Academy. This is the last section of "The Case of the Chopping of the Beauty." The original version and Su Bai's version are slightly different...]
[Sorry, I'm so ignorant! I lived for so many years and I never knew Peking Opera was so beautiful!]
[Su Bai's modification of this part is really cool. Anyway, I decided to listen to it after it ends.]
The singers present were also confused.
Most of the singers here have heard of "The Case of the Chopping of the Beauty", but this version is really jaw-dropping!
No one has ever thought that Peking Opera could be changed like this!
"Su Bai, you are really talented. How did you come up with this adaptation?" Liu Dihua asked with surprise.
Su Bai smiled shyly.
"I know that many opera masters are trying their best to promote our country's traditional culture, but they encounter many difficulties and resistance."
"It's not that our country's younger generation has no interest in these traditional cultures, but perhaps they are used to listening to pop songs and it's difficult for them to appreciate the beauty of opera all at once."
"So I tried to see if I could combine opera with pop music, so that many young people could feel the charm of opera and find it pleasant to listen to."
"This is just a small attempt of mine. More research may be needed to make it more specific."
......
The award ceremony ended perfectly, and Su Bai undoubtedly became the most dazzling man on the Internet tonight.
Be it winning a grand slam right after his debut or his eye-catching bags at award shows, he has garnered much attention and love.
Of course, what people talked about most about Su Bai today was his final thought-provoking argument on cultural self-reliance and his rock version of "The Case of the Chopping of the Beauty".
The opera community even had a huge quarrel over this matter, and could basically be divided into reformers and conservatives.
Reformists believe that the combination of Su Bai is very good and that more attempts should be made to embrace new changes.
Only in this way can we truly revive the opera culture and make more young people willing to enter and understand China's opera culture.
Conservatives believe that Su Bai’s adaptation is a heinous act that completely deviates from the essence of traditional opera. Such an adaptation is an insult to opera!
This form of adaptation must be resisted.
The two sides were arguing fiercely, and netizens were also discussing it hotly.
There are people who support both factions, but most people support the reformists. And it is true that because of Su Bai, opera has become popular!
Now many young people are beginning to try to get in touch with those classic opera scenes, especially "The Case of the Chopping of the Beauty", which has suddenly become very popular.
Of course, Su Bai didn't know all this. He rushed back to the crew after attending the ceremony. He was going to shoot a major scene tomorrow, which was also a very highlight scene for Fan Xian in the entire drama.
Su Bai himself has been looking forward to this scene for a long time. After all, he likes this kind of pretentious scenes the most!
......
In the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests.
Emperor Qing is hosting a banquet today. The eldest princess is colluding with Zhuang Mohan, a prominent figure in Northern Qi, to ruin Fan Xian's reputation.
The eldest and second princes originally wanted to win over Fan Xian, so they proposed that Fan Xian preside over the imperial examination next spring. Emperor Qing felt that Fan Xian was not experienced enough, so he put the matter on hold for the time being.
Unexpectedly, these words gave Zhuang Mohan a good opportunity to speak. He pretended to remind Emperor Qing that the Spring Examination was the foundation of the country, and the person in charge needed to be chosen with caution.
Then the eldest princess Li Yunrui jumped out to perform a double act, which was a lot of outbursts and filled with righteous indignation.
He also said that Zhuang Mohan was afraid that Fan Xian's fame would grow and surpass his.
Then this shameless old man said "out of helplessness" that Fan Xian's world-famous seven-character poem was copied from his teacher's poem.
He even took out an old scroll he had been carrying, on which was Fan Xian's famous poem -
Climbing the Heights
The wind is strong and the sky is high, the monkeys are howling sadly, the water is clear and the sand is white, the birds are flying back.
The endless fallen leaves rustle down, and the endless Yangtze River rolls on.
I am often a guest in a faraway place in the sad autumn, and I am alone on the stage after suffering from illness for a hundred years.
I am suffering from hardship and bitterness, and my hair is turning white with frost. I have just put down my cup of wine.
Fan Xian was delighted when he heard this, and asked Zhuang Mohan if his teacher's surname was Du.
Zhuang Mohan denied it, so Fan Xian was completely relieved. Since there was no Du Fu here, then I must be Du Fu!
Su Bai was particularly touched by this scene. After all, everyone was a time traveler and a plagiarist.
