"Hello everyone, relatives, family, old irons, theater fans, let's sing and talk about drama this afternoon, welcome everyone to sing two sentences too..."
On the afternoon of June 21, in Miao Kaifu's live broadcast room, 20-year-old Miao Kaifu began his daily live broadcast work, and behind him, the signboard of "China Jiaozuo Disabled Live Broadcast Base" was particularly conspicuous.
Miao Kaifu has cerebral palsy since childhood, and cannot walk before the age of ten, so he can only move with the help of wooden stools. Fortunately, his parents did not abandon him and took him around for medical treatment, finally giving him the opportunity to stand up and learn to walk. Four years ago, the god of luck came to Miao Kaifu again, and his life has been changed since then.
I just wanted to take a picture with the master of Yu opera, and I didn't want to be accepted as an apprentice by the master
Because of the inconvenience of mobility, coupled with the fact that he sought medical treatment everywhere, Miao Kaifu did not have many days in school, and naturally there were few friends. In order to alleviate the pain caused by rehabilitation training, watching TV became a way for him to relieve loneliness at that time. Once, I accidentally heard the famous Yu opera artist Li Shujian singing "Dadeng Temple", and the old and simple singing voice and the chic and beautiful rhythm suddenly captured the heart of this sad teenager. Since then, Miao Kaifu has become fascinated by Yu opera and has become an iron fan of Li Shujian.
When will I be able to meet this opera master? It would have been nice to have a photo with him. In Miao Kaifu's heart, these are all careful wishes that he can only bury in his heart, afraid that he will not be able to achieve in his lifetime.
The turnaround came in January 2018. On January 13, 2018, the "Red Literary and Art Light Cavalry" literary and art detachment of Henan Yu Theater went to The Zhongshuizhai Village in Jiaozuo Wuzhi to perform a condolence performance, and the news spread locally like wings. In order to give his son a look at Li Shujian, Miao Kaifu's father rented a car to take his son from 70 miles away.
In order to let the child get close to Teacher Li Shujian, Miao Kaifu's father went around to find out about Li Shujian's disciples, and at the same time Jiaozuo's fellow Li Xinwu. Under the recommendation of Li Xinwu, Miao Kaifu met his idol Li Shujian as he wished.
"At that time, this child was unstable, he needed someone to hold him, and as soon as he saw me, he would kneel, so I quickly helped him up." After many years, when mentioning the situation of seeing Miao Kaifu for the first time, Teacher Li Shujian still remembers it vividly.
When he learned that Miao Kaifu loved drama and could sing opera, Teacher Li encouraged him to take the stage and show himself.
"On that day, I sang an excerpt from Teacher Li's "Qingfeng Pavilion": Thirteen years of winter and summer only one quilt, thirteen years of light wine did not dare to drink a cup, thirteen years I did not cover my body to become a ghost, thirteen years of thin bones like firewood slave fat. How many sins have been suffered in thirteen years, thirteen years of hope to completely dissolve sorrow, thirteen years of a dream, dreaming of waking up the bloody knife cone in the heart, and suffering and killing people's hearts and minds in vain... Thinking of my parents raising themselves for more than ten years with hardships, my feelings came out at once. At that time, I shed tears on the stage, and my master wiped away tears offstage. ”
"This child usually can't stand steadily, and I was very touched to stand and sing 'Qingfeng Pavilion' that day." In addition to being moved, Teacher Li Shujian, who is also a temperamental person, took out the only 1,000 yuan on his body and stuffed it to Miao Kaifu on the spot, and at the same time said that he wanted to take Miao Kaifu as an apprentice, and funded 100,000 yuan in his personal name to let him continue to see a doctor.
"After following the master for all these years, I didn't sing lightly, but also learned to be a person." My Master's principle of receiving disciples: receiving disciples does not receive gifts; Implement 'three helps' and 'three disregards' for apprentices: help their children to make progress in their studies, help relatives seek medical treatment for serious illnesses, and help disciples tide over crises; no matter how they are promoted to get rich, no matter their titles are evaluated, and no matter whether they participate in the competition and win awards. Miao Kaifu said that learning art is the mantra that the master hangs on his lips, and it is also the basic criterion for these disciples to get started, taking the master as an example, passing on this love and being a useful person to society, which has always been the direction of his efforts.
Yu opera does live broadcasting for the media and strives to realize its own value
The master's 100,000 yuan is precious and timely for the Miao Kaifu family. Through follow-up rehabilitation treatment, Miao Kaifu walked more steadily than before. After his condition improved, Miao Kaifu thought most about how to get a job and reduce the burden on his family in addition to learning opera and singing.
You can't pick your shoulders, you can't lift your hands, and your only specialty is that you can sing. With the rise of online live broadcasting and Internet entrepreneurship, with the help of the local county and city disabled persons' federation, Miao Kaifu successfully joined a food enterprise in Jiaozuo and became a disabled anchor with goods.
"Live broadcast for 22 days a month, and the income is about 2,000 or 3,000 per month." The income of two or three thousand per month is already satisfactory for Miao Kaifu.
For the disciple's self-reliance and self-improvement, the master Li Shujian also recognized: "This child has a broad heart, is willing to work hard and is strong, has not been defeated by reality, self-reliant, and now does live streaming with goods, I hope more netizens can support him!" ”
In the process of live broadcasting, when the interest is high, Miao Kaifu will always open his mouth to come to the last paragraph, "The Great Dengdian Temple", "Qingfeng Pavilion", "Cheng Baby Saves orphans"... However, one of his favorite jokes is adapted from the Sentence in the Yu opera "Son-in-Law" by Xie Yanxin, the winner of the Chinese, "The big gourd and the small gourd are cut open, and the leather shoes and cloth shoes have to run forward on tiptoes, and the disaster can survive the self-indulgence..."
