"Mr. Liu, the scenery here is really not bad. When the program team first came here, we thought about your house, but unfortunately, we found it too small at that time and gave up in the end. I didn't expect Mr. Liu to have such a background. If we had known earlier, we would have taken the first step to understand.”
Chen Gezhou followed behind Liu Jing. When he entered the courtyard, he turned around and looked outside.
Ghost Scenery!
When Liu Jing heard his words, he couldn't help but complain in his heart.
It was already close to midnight. The villagers went to bed early. At this time, the lights in the houses had long been extinguished, and the villagers had long gone to bed.
Looking outside, it was completely dark. What scenery could there be for you to see?
However, the other party's words were obviously leading to the topic. Liu Jing also took it as such, so he nodded and said. "Yes, the scenery here is beautiful.
" As for my background, hehe, Director Chen is someone who has seen all kinds of big storms and big waves. He has seen all kinds of superstars and celebrities. I'm afraid my background is not worth mentioning to you. Befriending him was an exaggeration.”
"No, no, the heir of the Plum Sect can be said to have an extraordinary background.”Chen Gezhou said with a satisfied look.
Chen Gezhou enjoyed Liu Jing's words when he said that he was a person who had seen great storms and waves.
What Liu Jing said was the truth. Although Chen Gezhou was not like world-famous directors like Zhang Yimou or Spielberg, he had been in the domestic entertainment industry for more than 20 years. He had also been a variety show director for more than ten years.
In the entertainment industry, Chen Gezhou had a lot of influence. Even celebrities had to give him some face.
Liu Jing's words could be considered a gesture of goodwill, which made him very satisfied.
"Plum Sect…In the eyes of some people, he was indeed extraordinary, but in the eyes of others, he was already desolate.”Liu Jing shook his head and replied.
"No way." Chen Gezhou quickly said, but his expression did not change much.
Seeing the other party's expression, Liu Jing was even more determined. The opera industry must rise, or else it would be bleak in the future.
Just like what he said, was the Plum Sect's successor still as famous as before?
Thirty years ago, everyone would have heard of the Plum Sect and praised it.
Ten years ago, everyone would nod their heads when they talked about the Plum Sect, indicating that they knew about it. They would also talk about Beijing opera.
But now…
What was everyone's reaction when they talked about Plum Sect?
"It's that Mei Lanfang's faction, right? Beijing opera? Who still listens to Beijing opera?"
It was so real.
As the generation of people who listened to Peking opera grew older, Peking opera was no longer as popular. Youngsters liked a more 'trendy' culture.
They liked Western music, Japanese and Korean music, street dance, and hip-hop. How many young people said that they liked Beijing opera?
Ask a hundred people what art you like? Perhaps none of them would think of Peking opera or traditional Chinese opera.
Some people might say that this was the progress of the times. As time passed, some things would definitely be buried. The opera could not keep up with the pace of the trend, so it would naturally be replaced by others.
But was that really the case? The opera that had been passed down for thousands of years had declined in just a few decades?
No, the bigger reason was that people had come into contact with too many things. They were blinded by the things in front of them and forgot that there were good things in their own homes!
Perhaps it was also because other people's food tasted better than his own.
Adding on some of the elements of worshipping foreign things, the treasures in our own homes were placed aside.
The market was like that. When the audience saw more things, the capitalists would naturally promote those that were easier to make money from. Therefore, the entertainment industry was now filled with Korean culture, Japanese culture, and European and American culture.
As for the local culture, they saw it as a small cake. Compared to a big cake, a small cake was more delicious.
Liu Jing couldn't make people like opera now and quickly change their views, but he could change the current situation of opera. At the very least, he had to make opera suitable for the current rhythm.
This wasn't impossible. Guo Degang had brought crosstalk to the public's attention. Since crosstalk could be done, why couldn't Beijing opera?
Everything depends on man.
I'm a little off topic. Back to the main point.
Just like Liu Jing himself said, because of the current state of opera, the Mei School, Tan School, Li School, Xiao School, and so on could not cause any big waves in the entertainment industry.
Yes, opera was a culture that had been passed down for thousands of years, but with the changes in the market, these things were no longer popular with young people.
If they weren't popular, they wouldn't be valued by the bosses of the entertainment industry.
If they weren't valued by the bosses of the entertainment industry, their exposure to the public would naturally decrease. Once it decreased, they wouldn't be liked by the new blood fans, and they wouldn't be welcomed by the young people nowadays.
This endless cycle led to…
Nowadays, opera performers had a very high status in the social circle of opera. However, in the entertainment industry, he could not cause any waves.
Therefore, Chen Gezhou did not really care about Liu Jing's identity as the so-called successor of the Plum Sect.
So what if he was Huang Lei's martial uncle?
If I, Chen Gezhou, am willing to suppress you, Liu Jing, would Huang Lei spend tens of millions of his family's wealth to help you rise because of your relationship?
Don't joke around. People are very realistic. Without benefits, who would help you?
Of course, Chen Gezhou would not really suppress Liu Jing. A starving camel was still bigger than a horse. He did not dare to offend Liu Jing. After all, the entertainment industry had too many connections. He was not sure if Liu Jing had a bigger backer.
For example, Chen Gezhou knew that Liu Jing's senior brother was the director of the drama!
This made it impossible for Chen Gezhou to become enemies with Liu Jing.
