Chapter 712: It’s not a bad idea to be his foreign residence

 The next day, many newspapers across the country published the Vietnam-China March 28 incident. With Chen Qi’s ability to thicken and thicken red envelopes, all the media almost praised Chen Qi as a flower.

The vast majority of ordinary people believe that Chen Qi was wronged, but why are rumors so powerful, but there are always some people who don't believe it.

Whether you really believe it or not, it doesn’t take a day or two to get rid of the rumors.

It doesn't matter that Chen Qi is thick-skinned, but the most innocent victims here, Ping Heling and Yuezhong Xiaobaihua, are in trouble.

 There is an old saying in China that goes, "The appearance is ruthless, the actor is meaningless", which fully illustrates the low status of opera actors in the old society.

 After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the status of opera actors was raised very high. In the 1950s and 1960s, ordinary workers earned 30 to 40 yuan a month, and even an eighth-level fitter only earned 90 yuan a month.

 But as an opera singer, Mei Lanfang's monthly salary is as high as 2,100 yuan, which shows his high status.

The status is high, but in the eyes of ordinary people, actors are still considered low-class, and are often associated with indiscreet living, vixenism, seducing people, etc.

 So even though it’s already 1990, behind every theater actor there are a bunch of romantic rumors spreading.

No, as soon as the rumor about Chen Qi and He Ling came out, a dean and an actor were so angry that the old leader who originally advocated for funding also withdrew his support, and subsequently the funds were also withdrawn.

 Although the rumors were later clarified, the old leader stopped mentioning the matter in order to avoid suspicion.

Now the Xiaobaihua Yue Opera Troupe is in trouble. All the hard work of hiring a provincial director, selecting actors, investigating props, etc. were all in vain.

What is even more frightening is that as a regular Yue Opera troupe, it will lose the opportunity to perform in the grand theater auditorium. It will either disband the troupe, or, like the folk Yue Opera troupe, set up a grass stage troupe to sing temple fairs in the countryside.

 Folk artists have no sense of burden and are willing to endure any hardships in order to survive, especially those from Shengxian County.

Yuezhong is a prefecture-level city, and Shengxian County is a county under Yuezhong.

The real birthplace of Yue Opera is actually Sheng County. The famous Yue Opera masters Yuan Xuefen, Yin Guifang, Fan Ruijuan, Fu Quanxiang, Wang Wenjuan, Zhou Baokui and others are all from Sheng County.

Yue Opera can surpass Kun Opera, Henan Opera, Ping Opera, Huangmei Opera, etc., and become the second largest opera type in China. These outstanding figures have made great contributions.

The local opera in central Vietnam is actually Shao opera. Liu Xiaolingtong's father, Liu Lingtong, is a famous Shao opera master and was even made into the movie "Three Strikes of White Bone Demons".

There are numerous grass stage troupes among the people in Shengxian County. These Yue opera artists have been singing since they were young, and their singing styles are not divided into any genres. When someone invites them, they will set up a stage and perform on stage as soon as the gongs and drums sound.

Performances are often performed in farm fields or in front of village temples. They eat mustard mustard, molded tofu, and sleep in people's homes. Sometimes they sleep directly on the ground in the temple. It's a standard way of sleeping in the open air, which is very hard.

There are no protagonists and supporting actors, because there are not enough manpower. As soon as the protagonist finishes singing, he must immediately change into a supporting role to perform the role of Soldier A.

But such a grass-stage troupe is looked down upon by regular theater troupes, just like one is a barefoot doctor in the countryside and the other is an expert from a top-level hospital in the city.

To let the actors of the Vietnamese Small Baihua Vietnamese Troupe also performed in the countryside like the Caotai team, and the wind meal sleeps, it is better to directly dissolve the Yue Theater Troupe and go back to each home directly.

Leaders such as Captain Sun and Deputy Captain Qian were so anxious that they were called "heads".

As for the original protagonist Ping He Ling, it was both an operation and a rumor. After working for a long time, a new play project was stopped, and the life or death of the troupe was unknown.

 The 19-year-old girl's dream of becoming a star was shattered, and she could only cry under such a blow.

Chen Qi just opened the door and came in to check the ward.

Zhao Yongzhong only had a huge breast removed and then sutured it, so he was discharged from the hospital within a week.

 Pingheling is a free flap replantation and requires a second-stage surgery, so he can only continue to be hospitalized.

Chen Qi personally came in with the dressing tray. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ping Heling still crying, so he joked:

"Classmate Xiaoping, the rumors between us have been clarified, and the bad guys have been arrested. Why are you still crying? You are so weak. Your performance in "Two Pearls Phoenix" is a comedy. You cry so hard , why is it the same as the Qiong Yao drama?"

As soon as Ping’s mother saw Chen Qi coming, she quickly stood up and explained:

"Dean Chen has misunderstood. This girl is not crying because of the rumors. It's because Deputy Head Qian came to see her in the morning and told her that the new play will not be scheduled. You see, she couldn't understand and started crying."

"The new play will not be scheduled? Why? Our operation was successful, what a pity."

 Chen Qi is now a little dark after being framed once. He thinks that Ping Hedu's role has been snatched away by others. This is not uncommon in the entertainment industry.

“Well, the main reason is that the troupe has no money. The original allocation promised by the superiors was...because of the rumors, it will not be allocated this time, alas.”

Chen Qi understood. It turned out that the Xiaobaihua Yue Opera Troupe, or Pinghe Ling, was the fish in the pond who was affected by the fire at the city gate. Looking at the little girl in the hospital bed who was in tears because of his involvement, Chen Qi still felt quite guilty. Because of the secret fighting in the hospital, the dream of an innocent little girl was shattered and may be ruined for the rest of her life.

 Putting down the dressing tray, Chen Qi thought for a moment:

 “How much does it cost to put together a new play?”

Pinghe Ling replied while sobbing: "It turns out that the superiors are planning to allocate 50,000 yuan, which includes rehearsal expenses, new props, costumes, makeup, etc."

 50,000 yuan is a huge amount of money for ordinary people, but for Yuezhong Xiaobaihua, it is life-saving money that can bring the troupe back to life.

 But for Chen Qi, it was just the money of a few bottles of Coke.

He now collects tens of millions in rent alone every year. The key is that this money can only be deposited in the bank for the time being, and there is no chance to convert it into US dollars or gold, which means it is of little use.

If 50,000 yuan could buy back a girl's dream, Chen Qi would also like to be a virgin.

“Okay, it’s just 50,000 yuan, I’m sponsoring this money.”

"ah?!"

Ping Heling and her daughter both raised their heads and were shocked: "Dean Chen, this, this is 50,000 yuan."

Chen Qi knew that the time to show off was coming, so he put his hand on his waist and waved his hand with great momentum (he imitated the appearance of the great man in the TV series, only missing a cigarette.)

“For Xiaoping’s dream of being the protagonist, I have paid out this 50,000 yuan. Now you can contact the leader of Xiaobaihua to come and get the money!”

 Captain Sun and Deputy Commander Qian almost stepped on the bicycle chain and finally rushed to the People's Hospital as quickly as possible.

As soon as he saw Chen Qi, Captain Sun didn't care whether he was embarrassed about reporting the case before, and directly held Chen Qi's hand:

"Dean Chen, thank you so much. On behalf of our more than 100 staff members at Xiaobaihua, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to you. It was my fault before. I am not a human being and caused you to be wronged. I would like to express my sincere thanks to you. Apologize."

 Chen Qi did not mean to blame Captain Sun. He was able to report the case at the critical moment regardless of the situation, which shows that Captain Sun really cares about and cares for his actors. This is not wrong.

"Okay, okay, Captain Sun, I won't say any more polite words. I'm not that great. I personally paid the 50,000 yuan sponsorship fee, but I have two requirements."

 “Dean Chen, tell me!”

“Each one will give you 50,000 yuan. I don’t care what play you rehearse, but the protagonist must be Pinghe Ling, otherwise I have the right to withdraw the sponsorship.”

Captain Sun nodded sharply: "This is absolutely no problem."

"Then the second request is that my sister is getting married next month at the earliest and within half a year at the latest. I invite your Xiaobaihua Yue Opera Troupe to perform in the countryside for three days. How about it?"

 It is definitely a huge honor to be able to invite a big theater troupe in the city to perform in the countryside for three days.

 Chen Qi is going to sing a two-day opera in his hometown of Xiaze Village. He will marry off his eldest sister in a glamorous manner and let those who gossip behind his back see what kind of old girl no one wants?

 The girls of the Chen family are treasures, and whoever marries them will make a fortune!

At the same time, he also planned to let Xiao Baihua go to Li Dahai's house to sing for a day in order to support the scene for his eldest sister.

 In fact, Chen Qi embroidered his fists in front of his neighbors and relatives of the Li family from all over the country, so that they could understand how strong Chen Qin’s family was and that their new daughter-in-law was not someone to be bullied.

Whether a woman has a high status in her husband's family, and whether her words are effective or not, actually depends on whether her mother's family is strong and whether her brothers can help her.

As soon as Captain Sun heard this small request, he hurriedly agreed:

"Dean Chen, don't worry, our Xiaobaihua is a professional theater troupe, ranked among the best in the country. Just let me know when you want to hear a play. We promise to be on call and send the best actors as soon as possible. A strong lineup comes on stage.”

After Chen Qi left, Captain Sun was still excited, but Deputy Captain Qian was worried.

Looking at Ping Heling who was also very happy, Deputy Commander Qian expressed his worries:

"Why do you think Dean Chen is so kind to He Ling? He spent 50,000 yuan to support He Ling in playing the leading role for no reason. This is weird. Could he..."

Ping Heling blinked his big eyes, his clear and stupid eyes making people look particularly loving.

Captain Sun is also a veteran of the martial arts world. He looked at Ping Heling thoughtfully:

“You mean, Dean Chen is interested in He Ling? This…”

 50,000 yuan is definitely not a small amount of money. The leader of a Yue Opera troupe only earns more than 300 yuan a month. This is already a senior professional title.

Being willing to give Ping Heling a huge sum of 50,000 yuan is no different from the warlords in the old society who offered 5,000 yuan for a small sum. Commander Sun and Deputy Commander Qian are both veterans and have seen a lot in those days.

Mama Ping was still quick to speak and said directly:

"What's the point? Dean Chen wants money, status, status, and good looks. My family, He Lingzhen, has become a foreign residence for Dean Chen. This is not something that cannot be considered."

　　Everyone fell down together after hearing this.

Leader Sun was unhappy: "This is a new society. Don't talk nonsense. Don't turn fake scandals into real scandals!"
