Chapter 245 Opening Short Talk
Suddenly, the moving scarecrow rushed up and tore off the name tag, which really scared everyone.
After the show was recorded, everyone complained to the director, "Next time, please do something more earthly, it's too scary."
However, the person who played the scarecrow received unanimous praise from everyone. Many times when people passed by him, they really thought he was an ordinary scarecrow.
Standing in the sun wearing such clothes on a hot day is really hard and dedicated.
In the conversation before the end of the show, Qi Long also focused on introducing this staff member, a senior student from a sports school who came to the company for an internship.
The person who applied for the job was just a handyman, but his athletic talent was noticed by the director, who gave him the role, and he performed quite well.
Also performing well were the actors from Deyun Society. Each of them spoke with a sense of humor, and the members said they were laughing happily during the recording.
When there are no clues, it’s fun to chat with them!
It’s not only interesting during the recording of the program, but also during the dinner, which makes everyone happy. The dinner games played by crosstalk actors are just different.
Qi Long suggested that everyone play a game about what animals call, and whoever can’t answer has to drink!
When we first heard this rule, everyone thought it sounded like a kindergarten game.
How a puppy barks is "woof woof woof". How a piggy barks is "hum hum hum".
What's the point?
Dongqiang was the first to question: "You are so boring!"
"Let's play a round, you first!" Qi Long said with a smile.
The two brothers clapped their hands, and Dongqiang asked Qilong: "What does a donkey bray?"
Qi Long said in a pinched voice, "Uh uh."
The sharp sound amused everyone.
"But not everyone has your onomatopoeia. It's fun for you, but it's boring for us!" Sha Yi retorted.
Qi Long clapped his hands and started a rhythm: "Listen to me, what does a starfish call?"
Dong Qiang stood up in an instant: "Are you kidding me? Can starfish make noises?"
Qi Long brought him a glass of wine: "Will you drink it if I tell you?"
"You tell me and I'll drink."
Qi Long changed to a low and honest voice and said slowly: "SpongeBob, let's catch jellyfish!"
"Hahahahahahaha!" Everyone applauded and laughed. Oh, so this is how the game is played?
You don't have to imitate the sounds of animals. You can also say lines from movies, TV shows, and animations, right?
That would be interesting. Hou Zhen couldn't wait to let Dong Qiang give way. He wanted to have a showdown with Qi Long!
The two brothers clapped their hands, and Qi Long asked first: "What does a chicken crow?"
Hou Zhen stood up, put his hands on his lower abdomen, and bowed slightly: "Hello, I am meters tall and from the imperial capital!"
"Hahahahaha! The Marquis has a life!" Qi Long clapped his hands and gave a thumbs up.
Hou Zhen beat the rhythm and asked, "What does a snake call?"
Qi Long's first reaction was Bai Suzhen, and he called her "Sir", but when it was time to answer, he thought of another answer.
"As I wish, as I wish. Please show your power soon!" These are the classic lines of the snake spirit in "Calabash Brothers".
Of course it passed, and the reason why Qi Long answered this was to set a trap.
His next question was, “What is a gourd called?”
Having just mentioned the snake spirit in the Calabash Brothers, the other party will naturally think of the Calabash Brothers.
The most common line of Calabash Brothers is the one that Hou Zhen shouted at the top of his lungs: "Grandpa, Grandpa! Give me back my Grandpa!"
"Hey!" Qi Long agreed when he called out "Grandpa", and the whole table burst into laughter.
Hou Zhen shook his head: "That's not right, is a gourd an animal?"
"I lost, I drink, I drink, hahaha!" Qi Long picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then it was the turn of others to play.
Since everyone was thinking of something weird, when Dong Qiang asked in a simple and unpretentious way how a sheep calls, his opponent spent a long time thinking about the famous lines from Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf.
As a result, Dongqiang simply said: "Meh!" and let the other party have a glass of wine.
After a joyful dinner table game, when Qi Long and Dong Qiang wanted to pay the bill, they learned that Hou Zhen had already paid and pulled Dong Qiang out the door: "Alright, alright, how can you two junior brothers pay the bill when there are senior brothers here? It's against the rules. Let's go, let's go. I have something to tell you in the car."
In the car, Hou Zhen proposed to broadcast live the opening of the Dragon Class admissions interview the next day. Qi Long and Dong Qiang would open the show without crosstalk. Deyun Society would not broadcast a complete crosstalk, just a few jokes, and then invite all the judges out.
Qi Long naturally agreed to this simple request, and thought quickly in his mind. He thought of the clapper talk, which would be a lively opening!
In the live broadcast room of the short video platform, the final interview of the Longzi Class of Deyun Society began. The live broadcast room counted down for two minutes, and Deyun crosstalk fans came in one after another. As the countdown ended, the camera gave to the stage during the students' interview. Qi Long and Dong Qiang were wearing dark blue embroidered gowns and holding clappers.
The two brothers exchanged glances and started tapping the boards at the same time. Just like before, it was clearly two people tapping the boards, but to the ears it sounded like one person tapping the boards, no matter how fast or slow the rhythm or how many variations there were, they were exactly the same.
The barrage was filled with applause, and the crosstalk performers and students on the scene were full of admiration.
As the clapperboard ended, the classic tune of the clapperbook sounded in the speakers: dang ge li ge dang.
Qi Long smiled and said, "We are playing with two boards. Let's not talk about anything else. Let's talk about the anxiety and uneasiness in life today. I will help you relieve your anxiety and break the uneasiness. From now on, you will be in a good mood and happy!"
Dongqiang said "Hmm?" and then Qilong sang and raised the anxious question:
[Everything costs money, including gas, water and electricity meters. The three brothers are busy with the meter. What should they do?]
Qi Long smiled and said: [Hey, this is easy. You can eat once every three days (go hungry?), take a bath and drink water, then wait for rain, and use electricity, then wait for lightning! ]
Dongqiang continued while hitting the board: [The work pressure is high, the boss makes me do everything! ]
Qi: [Tell him to do his own thing, this is a good habit to develop since childhood! ]
Dong Qiang mentioned his anxiety, and Qi Long talked nonsense about various solutions, but basically, they didn't solve the problem, it was all nonsense.
After that, he mentioned that the child was not good at his studies, and that one plus one equals three. Qi Long asked him to think the other way around, and that he could make one and a half pounds out of every pound of gold in the future!
Dongqiang mentioned that his parents are old and have many minor ailments. Qilong suggested that they just bear with the illness and save up for it when they grow older to see a doctor.
Speaking of the heavy pressure of mortgage payments, Qi Long recommended sleeping in a tent, or going to the park if all else fails.
When he said he had no partner in life, Qi Long recommended him the second dimension.
The audience laughed and laughed. Dong Qiang finally couldn't help it. He stopped talking about his anxiety and pointed at Qi Long: [My anxiety as the supporting actor is just nonsense as the funny actor. What's the point of your method? It's all nonsense! ]
[I have a really good idea: Come to Deyun to watch crosstalk, our actors will do everything they can to make you feel relieved? ]
Dong Qiang said with disdain: [Can this help me get rid of the three disasters? Or help me get rid of the eight difficulties? After reading this, I will jump out of the three realms and no longer be trapped in the five elements! ]
Qi Long waved his hand: [I don’t have that much ability, I can only make you happy for a while, temporarily forget your worries and anxieties, and be accompanied by happiness! ]
Dongqiang threw down the clapperboard: "What if you are not happy?"
Qi Long also stopped hitting the board: "If he's not happy, let's give him a refund."
Before he could finish his words, a group of Deyun crosstalk actors appeared at both ends of the screen, staring at him, and some were holding signs: Deyun Society will never refund tickets!
When Qi Long saw this, he quickly said, "Let's take off his shoes and tickle the soles of his feet for fun. We must make him happy for a while so that he doesn't waste his money on the ticket!"
"Go to hell!" Dong pushed him.
The fellow disciples nearby laughed and applauded.
The two used a simple quick-paced book, and the lyrics were relatively straightforward. This was also a joint decision made by Qi Long and Dong Qiang.
They could have shown off their real skills and expressed themselves by reciting tongue twisters and reciting lines that would wow the audience, but today they are not the protagonists. The protagonists are the students. If they show off their skills too well, the students behind them might feel pressured, and the audience would unconsciously compare themselves with them and would not be able to continue watching.
So the two of them took this simple and funny approach to complete the assigned task.
Qi Long and Dong Qiang clapped together with the onlookers. After clapping, Qi Long said to the microphone: "Okay, we are not the protagonists today. We are just the opening guests to help the students relieve their tension!"
"Yes!" Dong Qiang unconsciously stood sideways, half facing Qi Long and half facing the camera in front.
But it is not crosstalk, Qi Long invited four main judges from Deyun Society, namely Guo Degang, Yu Qian, Gao Feng and Sun Yue. Including the two of them, there are six people in total. The other actors are there just to show their faces, and they are given the title of senior brothers' evaluation, but in fact it has no effect on whether the students pass or not.
The enrollment officially began, and everyone became serious, handing the stage over to the students.
The talents they perform on stage are basically the same as those they perform on live broadcasts. Some will show what they have practiced recently. Regardless of whether they make the cut or not, the six judges with higher seniority in Deyun will give suggestions.
Among them was a teenager who was born with a cleft lip. He had no problem introducing himself at the beginning, but when Guo Degang asked him what was wrong with his mouth, when he explained, he revealed his slurred speech due to the cleft lip.
But when it came to the prepared running part, he spoke fluently and clearly.
Qi Long picked up the microphone and said, "Brother, if you close your eyes and listen to his self-introduction and his running lines, you won't be able to detect any flaws in his delivery. This shows that he has put a lot of effort into practicing this segment!"
"That's right, and he has worked harder than other students. He can persist in training. I think we can keep this kid. He is willing to work hard and practice, so he can succeed!" Yu Qian advised his partner.
Guo Degang laughed: "Okay, but kid, you have to think it through. If you really join the training center, you will have to work harder than others. Others may be able to practice well in one day, but you will need longer!"
The cleft-lipped boy bowed: "Don't think about it, I can do it!"
"Then you must remember that Gao Feng will not treat you as a problematic child. He will treat everyone equally!" Guo Degang reminded.
Qi Long also laughed: "Yes, respecting them means treating them as normal people. For example, I have never made fun of Mr. Gao Feng because of his bald head and Mediterranean hairstyle!"
"Hahahaha, thank you!" Gao Feng responded with a smile.
Red carp and green carp, they are always interesting, haha
