In a small teahouse in the northeast, smoke fills the air and people are buzzing. Several middle-aged men in coarse cotton jackets sat around and talked about something with great interest. Suddenly, an old man with a red face slapped the table and said loudly: "Everyone, do you know?
As soon as these words came out, the teahouse was suddenly silent. Everyone turned their eyes to the old man, their eyes full of curiosity and expectation. One of the young men couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, are you telling the truth?" Teacher Zhao Benshan has so many apprentices, how can you remember their ranking order?"
The old man smiled proudly, stroked his beard, and said slowly, "This is the result of my research for many years. Back then, I was a big fan of Mr. Zhao Benshan, and I would never miss every performance he performed. Over time, I developed a strong interest in his apprentices. After years of observing and collating, I finally got a clear idea of their ranking order. ”
When the young man heard this, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he asked eagerly, "Can you tell us about it, old man?" ”
The old man nodded and began to speak: "Teacher Zhao Benshan's apprentices are all talented and have their own characteristics. Their ranking order not only reflects their skill level, but also reflects their status in the heart of Mr. Zhao Benshan. ”
He paused and continued: "The first in line is naturally Teacher Zhao Benshan's eldest disciple - Xiao Shenyang. With his unique acting style and sense of humor, he has won the love and recognition of the audience. Under the careful guidance of Mr. Zhao Benshan, his skills have become increasingly sophisticated and have become the mainstay of Zhao's class. ”
"And who is the second one?" asked the young man curiously.
The old man smiled slightly and replied, "The second place is Song Xiaobao." He has won the love of the audience with his unique image and honest character. Although he may be slightly inferior to Xiao Shenyang in terms of skills, his hard work and perseverance are admirable. ”
With the old man's narration, everyone seemed to be in the art world of Mr. Zhao Benshan, and felt the style and charm of those apprentices. Sometimes they laughed, sometimes they sighed, completely attracted by the old man's story.
Just when everyone was listening with relish, the old man suddenly changed his words and said, "But ah, the ranking thing is only a superficial thing after all. Teacher Zhao Benshan's apprentices, no matter what the ranking, are his pride and hard work. Each of them has their own characteristics and talents, and they are all working hard to inherit and develop Zhao Jiaban's artistic career. ”
These words made everyone fall into deep thought. They are beginning to realize that the ranking is not the most important thing, but the hard work and dedication of each person.
At this moment, the door of the teahouse was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man walked in. He was dressed in a dark coat and had a kind face, which was none other than Teacher Zhao Benshan himself. Seeing this, everyone stood up and saluted. Teacher Zhao Benshan smiled and nodded to everyone, and then walked in front of the old man.
"Uncle, I heard everything you just said. Teacher Zhao Benshan said gently, "You are right, my apprentices are my pride. It doesn't matter where they rank, what matters is that they can continue to pass on and develop our artistic career. ”
When the old man heard this, he was so excited that he burst into tears. He held Mr. Zhao Benshan's hand and said with emotion: "Mr. Zhao, you are really our model." We have benefited greatly from your teachings, and we will continue to work hard to contribute to your artistic career. ”
Teacher Zhao Benshan smiled and patted the old man's shoulder, then turned to everyone and said, "Everyone, art is endless. We must always maintain a humble and learning attitude and keep improving. Only in this way can we go further on the path of art. ”
After saying this, Mr. Zhao Benshan turned around and left the teahouse. Everyone looked at his departing back, and their hearts were full of respect and gratitude. They know that Mr. Zhao's words will always inspire them to move forward.
And I, as a witness to this story, were also inspired. I understand that ranking is not the only criterion for measuring a person's worth, what matters is our inner pursuit and hard work. As long as we maintain a humble and learning attitude, and keep improving, we will definitely be able to achieve in our field.
Recalling the scene in that teahouse, I seemed to see Teacher Zhao Benshan and those apprentices again. They used their talents and sweat to present us with wonderful performances. And I will always remember their dedication and contributions, and offer my most sincere respect for their artistic career.
