How to Thrive in the ’60s

"A Chang, Grandpa Gu has made arrangements. Just pretend you don't know about it, and just wait for the result with peace of mind."

Even if I want to do something, I can't do it.

Yun Shang secretly complained, and nodded slightly, "I'll listen to you."

After thinking about it, he added, "Gu Huaiqing probably didn't expect that Gu Guangzong would go to the Northwest to deal with his funeral. Since he left a secret letter, he will definitely arrange for someone to deliver the letter to Aunt Zhang. Let Grandpa Gu Find this person as soon as possible. Also, tell Gu Guangzong again to let him know the seriousness of the matter, so that he won't make a fool of himself and tell the secret letter..."

"Don't worry, I mentioned something to Gu Guangzong, he dare not talk nonsense."

Yun Chang put on a fierce face, and said viciously, "That's good, if he dares to talk nonsense about you, I'll go to Qinghe County and beat him later!"

Gu Shinian responded with a smile, and felt that the way Yun Shang nagged and taught him looked like a nagging little wife, so cute.

It's getting late now, Gu Shinian only took a few hours off, and it's time to return to the station.

After sending Gu Shinian away, Yunshang put the lunch box containing the braised pork back in the dormitory, and hurried to the practice room with the violin in hand.

Deputy head Guan was standing outside the practice room, and when he saw Yunshang, he waved to her from a long distance away.

Yun Chang took a deep breath, trying to calm her slightly shortness of breath, and obediently stood in front of Deputy Head Guan, "Hello, Teacher Guan."

"Well, good." Guan Min nodded indiscriminately, and without a word, he dragged Yunshang to his office, and without waiting for Yunshang to ask, he told the reason why he was looking for Yunshang on the way.

This year's New Year's Day, the Propaganda Department of the district is planning to organize a large-scale cultural performance. In addition to the excellent programs selected by various units, the district hopes that the Military Art Troupe will also present several programs to participate in the performance to highlight the joy of the military and civilians. theme.

Several of the most famous shows produced by the Art Troupe in the past few years have all been performed in the district, and the freshness has long since disappeared.

After discussing with Head Yang, Guan Min decided to give newcomers a chance this year and let Yunshang also participate in the art performance in the district.

There are two purposes for doing this. One is to let Yunshang perform on stage as much as possible, so as to accumulate experience for the military art performance in March next year, and the other is to increase the sense of freshness. In case outsiders talk about the military art troupe, they can only think of a few fixed programs.

After listening to Guan Min's words, Yun Shang didn't feel too excited, but unconsciously clenched the violin in her hand, feeling a sense of ritual that she was about to embark on a new journey.

Seeing that Yun Chang's breathing was still steady, and the expression on her face did not show timidity, or lost her sense of excitement, Guan Min felt more and more satisfied.

"The performance is on the afternoon of the 30th, and there are only three days left. This is your first time on stage after arriving in Yicheng. It is such a big stage, and it is true that the requirements are very high. However, Director Yang and I both think that you Okay, I want to give you this chance, do you have the confidence?"

Yun Chang immediately straightened her back, and nodded solemnly at Guan Min, with a dazzling light in her eyes, "Teacher Guan, don't worry, I will perform well and live up to the expectations of you and Captain Yang."

Of course she would not let go of such a good opportunity to appear on stage!

Since she came to the Yicheng military division, both Guan Min and Yang Hongying have given her too much support and attention, even if it is for these two leaders who are particularly fond of her, she will give her all strength, to win glory for the leader.

For the next two days, Yunshang stopped practicing morning exercises with the members of the troupe, and ran to the small practice room early every day. Under Guan Min's guidance, accompanied by the piano accompaniment, she picked out the repertoire she was going to perform in the cultural performance one sentence at a time .

The fact that Guan Min gave Yunshang a small treatment in private could not be hidden from everyone's eyes, and the people in the group soon found out that Yunshang was going to perform a violin solo on the stage of the regional art festival.

Faced with all kinds of curious, envious, jealous, or disdainful gazes from the crowd, Yun Shang still remained calm, keeping herself out of the crowd,

Familiarize yourself with the repertoire you want to perform over and over again.

Compared with the veterans in the regiment, the three recruits in the dormitory have more feelings. Wu Xiang was really happy for Yunshang, even when he went to the cafeteria to eat, he and Yao Ke took turns buying food for Yunshang, just wanting her to spend more time practicing piano.

Although Ye Li is also quite jealous of Yun Shang's good luck, she and Wu Xiang are both members of the dance team, and unless she is particularly talented, she will only have the opportunity to lead or solo dance.

Therefore, even if Ye Li felt uncomfortable in his heart, and only occasionally said a few sour words, it would not be difficult for Yun Shang.

Only Liu Chunmei, the sour water in her heart almost drowned her.

She is a solo performer, and the troupe wants to add new programs. Logically speaking, her chances of appearing on stage are much higher than Yun Shang's. However, Head Yang and Deputy Head Guan seemed to have forgotten her, and only asked her to rehearse with the dance team and choir, without mentioning her performance on stage.

She is a singer, but in the eyes of Head Yang and Deputy Head Guan, she is no better than a wood sawer?

What's wrong with the people in this city.

However, Liu Chunmei was frightened by Yun Shang's previous cleaning up. Even if her heart was sour, she would at most whisper a few words to others in private, but she didn't dare to attack Yun Shang again.

...

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and soon it was the 30th.

The location of the art performance was in the auditorium of the district government. The performance started at one o'clock in the afternoon and ended at six o'clock in the evening, a total of five hours.

The Art Troupe has three programs, one solo, one model play of "Red Detachment of Women", and one is Yunshang's violin solo.

The backstage of the auditorium is very simple. The space of about 200 square meters is divided into several small spaces with wooden boards. There are a few wooden tables and benches inside, which are the dressing rooms for the performers of all units.

Yun Shang noticed that many people's performance costumes were piled up on the tables and stools in a mess, and people came and went. After rubbing past, the things on the table would fall off a corner, and then the people around didn't notice, just like that in the performance costumes. Step on it.

Fortunately, there is a special dressing room in the art troupe of the military region. With the thin wooden door closed, it seems to form an independent small space in the noisy world.

The members of the art troupe participate in many performances every year, and they have long been familiar with the performance process. The cast and crew perform their duties, busy but not chaotic, quickly put on makeup and change into performance costumes in an orderly and noisy manner.

Yun Chang's makeup is Guan Minhua's. She only lightly traced her eyebrows and applied a thin layer of rouge, and her face immediately became bright and beautiful. Guan Min looked at her carefully, and finally gave up on the idea of ​​putting on her red lipstick under Yun Shang's strong protest.
