It's worth noting that the opera troupe has rehearsed new plays over the years, but the old man has never been so certain about it.
Seeing his second son's anxious expression, the old man handed the phone to Li Wushuang.
"You take a look too, Lanping, you take a look as well!"
Li Wushuang took the phone and started looking at it along with Lan Ping.
The two of them read very quickly, and within ten minutes they had grasped the gist of the story.
Seeing that the two had finished reading, Li Tian asked, "What are your thoughts?"
"Brother, I feel like there shouldn't be any problems, but we still need to figure out what type of singing style to use!"
"Well, but I suggest minimizing the amount of singing. Nowadays, people focus more on acting, so my opinion on this play is that acting is more important than singing!"
Li Tian also offered his advice, saying that young people these days don't like plays that are all about babbling and wailing.
"Yes, Senior Brother is right!" Lan Ping also affirmed.
Upon hearing this, Li Tianyi immediately thought of Sha Wujing from "Journey to the West".
Huang Yin had also seen the play. After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke up: "Um, I have an immature idea, but I don't know if I should say it?"
Li Tian glanced at Huang Yin and said, "Go ahead and speak! There are no outsiders here!"
"Well, then I'll say it. Actually, I think this play could be made into a stage play like a musical, just like the 'Puppet Show' you wrote for Wushuang before. It's a stage play that's neither quite a play nor quite a song."
Li Tian understood and felt that this idea was even better. It would be quite difficult for him to create a world-famous piece like "The Butterfly Lovers" with his own level of skill.
However, creating some traditional Chinese style songs is still not a big problem; the problem is that plagiarism is not allowed.
Although it's a challenge for me, I think it should be fine overall.
“I think this is a great idea, we can give it a try. Let’s prepare two approaches: one is to sing it in the traditional opera style, which Wushuang will be in charge of; the other is to sing it in the stage play style, which Boss will be in charge of. Let’s see which one is more popular with the audience!”
The old man also thought Huang Yin's idea was feasible.
After experiencing the decline of Canglan Opera for so many years, the old man no longer held to his previous stubborn opinions.
In the old man's words, times have changed, and Canglan Opera must also keep up with the times.
