Chapter 18 Urging marriage After putting away his unhappy mood, Qi Long began his daily morning exercises. What he said before at Mr. Shi Fukuan's house was correct. He and Dongqiang had indeed been required to practice basic skills every day since they were young, and they have become accustomed to it over the years. Even when he was lying in the hospital after the car accident, Qi Long did not stop practicing his mouth skills. He spoke the lines with a plaster cast on his mouth, but he didn't dare to use too much force at the time. He was just in a state of state. Originally, Qi Long had always spoken his lines very quickly, but because he was ill and couldn't exert himself, he started to speak slower. Some folk art enthusiasts who were also hospitalized in the hospital said that he spoke better and more clearly because he spoke slowly. Being fast is more like showing off your skills, showing the audience how good you are. Sometimes, if it is too fast, the audience's ears can't keep up with your mouth, and there is no point in speaking fast. When it comes to singing a jingle, the key is to be fast but not chaotic, and slow but not continuous! I took out my cell phone, opened the random number generator, and randomly generated a number from 1-100. I clicked on one at random, and when I saw the number, I opened the passage book and started practicing that section. After practicing it a few times, I clicked on the next section. I practiced like this for more than an hour. It was not until the agreed time that he went downstairs and rushed to Deyun Company. Vice President Luan was waiting for them downstairs in the company. As soon as the car stopped, he trotted over to open the door. A vice president acted like a doorman. "Or you can say that you are Mr. Guo's favorite disciple. That's too polite. Today we are here as employees!" Qi Long joked with a smile.
Gao Dongqiang, who was sitting in the driver's seat, immediately responded: "Vice President, how about you get in the car and let Xiao Qi open the door for you?" Luan Yunping smiled: "How dare I!" As he said this, he made a gesture as if he was about to get into the car, and the three of them burst into laughter. Dongqiang parked the car and came into the company under the guidance of Luan Yunping. Deyun Society's main business is small theaters. There are not many employees at the registered company address. Most of them are responsible for operations and publishing weekly programs. There are not many people, so Luan Yunping took them directly to the office. "Uncles, there are only eight members in the Deyun Society Theater now, and seven teams are performing in different places in rotation. There are not many more. If we open a theater in the future, we will let you two be the captains." "Don't worry!" Gao Dongqiang waved his hands immediately: "I just don't want to be in charge of things. I just want to join your club to perform crosstalk. Why do you want me to be in charge of things? Qi Long? He doesn't like to worry about things anymore!" Qi Long nodded and acknowledged what Gao Dongqiang said. He and Dongqiang were essentially the same type of people. They were only passionate about the things they were interested in, and would save as much as possible on other things. Luan Yunping nodded: "Alright, Master has told you two to participate in a crosstalk competition in the near future. I think how about this? Your performance venue will be fixed at the Sanlitun Theater recently. It is also relatively close to the location where you record your crosstalk! After the competition is over, we will see which team you two want to join?" The two looked at each other, agreed, and then reported their programs. In the same crosstalk performance, you cannot have two identical performances. Try not to have similar performances as this will make the audience bored and they will be prone to making comparisons. After the two of them decided on the program, they asked Meng Hetang, the captain of Team 7, who would be performing in Sanlitun next week, to organize the program for Team 7. If they just want to decide on the program and performance, WeChat will be enough. There is another thing that the two of them need to do, which is to formally sign the contract. This requires waiting for the professional legal advisor from Gao Dongqiang's father's company to arrive. While waiting, Qi Long and Dong Qiang planned to take advantage of their free time to practice the crosstalk that would be used in the competition. Luan Yunping asked curiously if he could listen to it, and Qi Long naturally did not refuse: "If you have any good suggestions, give us some, and we will improve it!" After all, crosstalk is performed for others, so it is also very important to listen to other people's opinions. Of course, you can listen to opinions, and if you think they are useful, just follow them. If you think they are useless, just listen to them. You still have to stick to your own art. "Standing in this national crosstalk competition, my mood is very up and down, I said" "Wait a moment, very up and down? What is the adjective for up and down?" "I'm feeling uneasy!"
"Uneasy, that's uneasy!" "Yes, yes, yes, I am very nervous. Please forgive me, please forgive me, I am really not good at cultural creation!" "Achievements" It's a typical comedy show, with a small gag where the funny man says something wrong and the straight man corrects him. If it was just such a small gag, the effect wouldn't be so outstanding. The trick is that this sentence is followed by another gag about saying something wrong. This is unexpected for many viewers, and the unexpected humor is the funniest. And just two sentences establish the image of the funny guy as an ignorant person! The two of them took turns speaking, but after all, it was a TV crosstalk, so there were strict time requirements, and all kinds of jokes caused by saying the wrong words came one after another. Luan Yunping on the side was stunned. Even a comedy show could produce such an effect. The two uncles were indeed extraordinary! After practicing for a while, Deyun’s boss, Qi Long’s sister-in-law, Guo Degang’s wife Wang Hui and the legal advisor of Gao Dongqiang’s father’s company all came here. They were mainly responsible for negotiating the contract, while Qi Long and Dongqiang were responsible for signing it. Since there had been preliminary negotiations before, the contract was signed very smoothly. After signing, Wang Hui invited Qi Long and Dong Qiang to their home for dinner. That was just like the notice. To Qi Long, his elder sister-in-law was like a mother. She had taken care of him when he was a child, so she was also his elder. He did not refuse and drove to follow. His beloved disciple Luan Yunping also followed. Wang Hui also asked him to call his wife to come along. When Qi Long heard that Luan Yunping was asked to call him wife, he secretly thought that something bad was happening and that the people urging him to get married were here. This is a traditional activity for the elders after he turned 25. Their senior brothers Guo Degang and Yu Qian didn't urge them, but their sister-in-law, master, and parents really urged them. Qi Long was better off. After the car accident, he didn't hear any calls for marriage for a year. He had a girlfriend from college in the first two years, but later she went abroad to study, and they naturally separated. In the first half year after the breakup, his family didn't urge him. Instead, they comforted him and told him to take his time looking for another one. So in total, he was urged to get married for only more than half a year. But Dongqiang is different. This guy had a girlfriend when he was fat, but that girlfriend was only after their family's money. He caught her flirting with other men. Since then, he hasn't had a girlfriend for five years, and he has been urged to have one for five years. Sure enough, at the dinner table, Wang Hui asked them both if they had met any girl they liked or admired recently. As soon as the two of them answered no, the sister-in-law started nagging, saying that they can't just think about crosstalk and traditional arts all day long. They should learn to go out and meet more girls. Maybe they will meet one they like. If they are either thinking about crosstalk at home or performing crosstalk every day, how can they meet the opposite sex? "I can reach him in the gym, but he can't. Sister-in-law, please tell me more about him!" Dong Qiang immediately pointed at Qi Long and said, "I'd rather die than have my friend die. Go and get nagged." Qi Long immediately glared at him and said, there are a lot of girls in your gym, why don’t you chase them? What’s the use of having a lot of girls? Didn't you say that some people go to the gym just to pose for photos, and many of those who exercise seriously already have boyfriends, and there are few singles, so why are you still not interested? "That's right, get in touch with them more. When our drum music club performs, you can go and see it. You like traditional arts, right? If you see someone you like, I'll introduce them to you and see if they like you!" (End of this chapter)
