Marriage must put "Chaoyanggou"
Coinciding with the 11th National Day holiday, more and more people are getting married. In our case, as long as the loudspeaker of anyone's house sounds the sound of the Yu opera "Chaoyanggou", it indicates that someone in this family should be married, and relatives and friends who hear the sound should hurry up to send some money.
The Yu opera "Chaoyanggou" was premiered in Zhengzhou on May 19, 1958 by the Third Troupe of Henan Yu Theater, written by Yang Lanchun, directed by Yang Lanchun and Xu Xin, music designers Wang Jixiao and Jiang Hongxuan, and stage art designed by Guan Peng. Wei Yun as silver ring, Wang Shanpu as tethered bao. In June of the same year, it was transferred to Beijing for performance. In the subsequent performances, Wei Yun starred in Silver Ring, Ma Lin played the second lady, and Gao Jie played the tethered nurse. In 1963, it was filmed by Changchun Film Studio to make an opera art film.
The advent of "Chaoyanggou" is undoubtedly a landmark work of modern opera, with beautiful melodies, vivid plots, coupled with the superb performances of the artists of the three yu opera troupes, making this work famous throughout the country once it came out. There are 8 scenes in the whole play, depicting high school graduate Yinhuan going to Chaoyanggou, the hometown of his fiancé, to participate in agricultural production, encountering a series of difficulties and wavering in his thinking. With the help of the grass-roots branches of the Communist Party of China and the masses, and because of the deep affection for the land and crops cultivated in the course of labor, she realized that the countryside is also a vast field for intellectual youth to contribute, and finally took root in the countryside.
Since "Chaoyanggou" is a comedy, it is very suitable for playing on festive days. As long as I can remember, "Chaoyanggou" must be put on marriage, which has become the norm. Now, more than thirty years later, this is still the case. It is rare for a Yu drama to have such a tenacious vitality.
Many of the songs in it, our adults and children will hum a few words. Whether it's funny or angry. Before watching "Pear Garden Spring", there was a little girl named Qin Mengyao, who became famous in the first world war because she sang the excerpt in "Chaoyanggou", and became the master of the current period. She sings this passage:
Mother, you sit down, and we sit and pull a pull.
Old sister-in-law, when you come to my house, let's talk about that confidant.
……
There are also many famous singing sections in "Chaoyanggou".
The first time the silver ring went to the field, the various crops were stupidly indistinguishable:
Over a mountain and over a depression, what crops are planted in this land?
This piece of land is planted with millet, and that piece of land is planted with melons.
I know this piece is corn, needless to say that piece is castor.
It's not castor, it's cotton.
I know this piece as thorn mustard.
It is not wattle mustard but sesame seeds. I hope you come to our house,
Know what to say, don't just talk about the layman.
The neighbors heard it and laughed their teeth out of tears. Silver Ring went to the field to hoe the ground, and The Bolt Bao taught her this:
Your front legs are bowed, your back legs are pedaling, and your heart is not panicked and your hands are not violent. Well, I told you to put it to death (the silver ring hoeed off the grain...)
Finally, silver rings insisted on returning to the city, and the bolt singed:
If you want to go, you go, I will always be in the countryside, him for a hundred years! (Eventually, of course, the Silver Ring returned, either tragically.) )
There is also a lot of controversy about the place of Chaoyanggou. Hebei people say that Chaoyanggou is in Chaoyanggou Village, Wu'an City, Hebei Province, and it is the burial place of Mr. Yang Lanchun. Henan people say that Chaoyanggou is in Cao Village, Daye Township, Dengfeng City. In 2009, the municipal government invested 1 million yuan in Chaoyanggou Forest Park to build the "Yanglanchun Cultural Park" with high standards, which has now become a new and beautiful point for the development of cultural tourism in Chaoyanggou Village. In 2010, the renovation and reinforcement of Chaoyanggou Reservoir restored the beautiful world of blue waves on the lake, water birds swimming, green mountains on both sides of the river, and trees, reproducing the good story of "Chaoyanggou is a good place worthy of the name, and I can't live in a lifetime".
In fact, no matter where Chaoyanggou is, it can promote local tourism and invigorate the economy, and the leaders' starting point is good.
Without saying anything, I heard the loudspeaker playing "Chaoyanggou" nearby. Alas, it is time to go with the grain and eat a high-priced meal...
