Chapter 135: Trying not to laugh, but missing a medicine

Chapter 135: I'm trying not to laugh, but I'm still missing a medicine
Half an hour later, Captain Liu took off his reading glasses, looked at Wang Yuanchao, and said:
"You completely fail to see the framework of the predecessors' routines! To be honest, I don't know how to give you advice. How about we try to talk it over internally first?"

Wang Yuanchao was also a little nervous. After all, this was a work written 20 years later, when there would already be a Wildlife Protection Law. Only the Siberian tiger was included in the protection list, and the South China tiger was still a "harm"!

He simply cut out the fortune-telling part to avoid being accused of being feudal and superstitious.

The name of nanny has also been changed to domestic worker!
Anything that can easily be exaggerated should be deleted or revised.

To put it bluntly, the time spent on revision is much longer than the time spent on writing.

So the body kept saying:
"I'll listen to you, Liu Tuan!"

Liu Shaodu immediately walked out of the office and waved to Hou Yaowen. The boy kept staring at the door with his eyes wide open.

When Hou Yaowen saw Liu Tuan coming out, he was so scared that he immediately lowered his head to read a book. He had just started working and he couldn't give his leader a bad impression of looking around.

As a result, Liu Tuan waved to him and asked him to come over.

Are you sure you are waving to him?

He looked up again uncertainly.

Liu Tuan had already frowned slightly, with the corners of his mouth curved downward, as if he was about to open his mouth to lecture.

Hou Yaowen quickly put down the book and ran over:

"Liu Tuan, you called me!"

Liu Shaodu saw Hou Yaowen coming over, then he turned back to the office, handed the manuscript to Hou Yaowen, and said:
"See if you can cooperate with Comrade Yuan Chao to do a segment."

Ah!
There is such a good thing? The greeting just now was not in vain!
Hou Yaowen's eyes were bright and he couldn't wait to read the manuscript.

Liu Shaodu said to Wang Yuanchao:

"Yuan Chao, you should try playing the role of the comedian in the story you wrote. Let Yao Wen cooperate with you. Let's talk about it first and see how it works. How do you think?"

Wang Yuanchao smiled and said:
"To be honest, I really put myself in the role of the comedian when I wrote it. When I first started writing, my height was 168cm. I kept writing and revising it, and now I'm 173cm tall. These are all real-time data!"

Young Master Liu hadn't thought about this yet. He recalled the article. Oh, it mentioned that he was short. 168cm wasn't considered tall, but 173cm was not short at all. Fortunately, Hou Yaowen was called in. This guy was 176cm, two fingers taller than Wang Yuanchao!
"When we tell jokes, we don't have to stick to the actual facts for the sake of effect. Why don't you write 163?"

[The original text of Jiang Kun says he is 165cm tall. Compare Jiang Kun's height. ]

Wang Yuanchao nodded quickly and said:
"What Liu Tuan pointed out is that I am too rigid."

"By the way, do you want to familiarize yourself with the script again? Or do you two want to recite it aloud from the script?"

Wang Yuanchao said quickly:

"No, no, just let Comrade Yao Wen read the manuscript. I wrote it word by word, and I won't forget a single word."

As he spoke, he picked up another latest version of the manuscript from the space and stuffed it into the equipment column. It was a copy of the original manuscript, with some revisions, so it couldn't be shown to the leader, but it didn't affect the use of the equipment.

As Hou Yaowen watched, he smiled and nodded in thanks to Wang Yuanchao.

He was the supporting actor, and he didn't talk much. To put it bluntly, during the intervals between Wang Yuanchao's performances, he would glance at the following words. What was the difference between that and acting without a script? Wang Yuanchao didn't use a script, and the script was left for him to read, so he was much more flexible in his performance.

He read it quickly and thought the joke was very novel. He said:

"Liu Tuan, Comrade Yuan Chao, I am ready."

Wang Yuanchao was very surprised and said:

"So fast? This article has more than 5,000 words!"

Hou Yaowen smiled confidently:

"The main part of the performance still depends on you. I have the script in hand, so it shouldn't be a problem for you to cooperate with me."

Without this ability, why would Liu Tuan call his father again and again?

Liu Tuan nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Okay, now that one of you has memorized the words and one of you is ready, let's get started."

The two men stood in front of Liu Shaodu's desk, and their faces changed as if they had changed, with honest smiles on their faces.

Wang: Comrade Hou Yaowen, I have a question for you.

Hou: What’s the problem?
Wang: Have you ever fallen?

Hou: Do you mean in work or in life?

Wang: What kind of work and life is this? It's just that I was not paying attention when I was walking along the aisle. "Bang!" The dog ate shit, the mouth chewed mud, the horse fell down, and the onion fell upside down!
As Wang Yuanchao spoke, he unconsciously added some exaggerated gestures to highlight his words.

Hou: Huh! How could anyone fall so hard?
Wang: I have fallen a lot more seriously than this. I can’t say that I have reached international level, but at least I have fallen into the ranks of world-class players.

Hou: Wow! That’s too far-fetched!
Wang: The place where I fell was hanging.

Hou: Where?
Wang: The Lion and Tiger Mountain in our Capital Zoo. I went there to watch Siberian tigers on Sunday. I was having a lot of fun when someone was so wicked that he pushed forward and shouted, "The tigers are out of the mountain!" He pushed me down from the fence!
……

Wang: After coming up, I thought of a key question!

Hou: What question do you think of again?

Wang: Where is the girl’s skirt?
Hou: I’m still thinking about that skirt belt.

Wang: Here it is, take it off quickly and hold it in front of your chest like a garland. Try to get in front of the girl and give her a "Golden Bead Mamiya Gudu" first. I ran towards the girl in a crooked manner.

[Tibetan: "Hello, PLA" when offering Hada to the PLA]

Hou: Why are you in such a hurry?

Wang: I don’t have a partner yet. How can I have a child without getting married? How can I respond to the leader’s call for strength in numbers? If there are not many people, how can we catch up with the UK and the US? I can’t help but be anxious!
Hou: So many people saved you, why don’t you thank them first?

Wang: I'm trembling, how can I speak?

Hou: Please shake hands with everyone first!

Wang: They didn’t shake hands with me.

Hou: Why?
Wang: They are all holding up their trousers!
Hou: Oh!
The two talked for a quarter of an hour in one breath!

The effect of this laugh was far beyond what Young Master Liu had imagined.

There is such a huge gap between text and performance.

Add to that the body language, intonation and voice that Wang Yuanchao understood, and regardless of whether there were any prototypes of the previous jokes, Young Master Liu's face was full of wrinkles.

And Hou Yaowen did not disappoint his careful selection. At least this supporting role was well-organized, quick to learn, and there were no laughs. His performance got better and better as the performance went on, which further inspired Wang Yuanchao's performance.

In other words, he is well-informed, has a good sense of humour, and does not sway forward or backward to the point of losing his composure.

Young Master Liu could now smile happily and said:

"Not bad, not bad. With a new jacket, you can go on stage directly. Comrade Yuan Chao, I have no objection. How about we go to the director and ask him to take a look together?" Everyone could see the director's rising momentum.

The three of them went to see Director Jin Guangjie again.

The director couldn't help it. He laughed out loud several times and had to hold it back.

To be honest, he had read Wang Yuanchao's draft before, and it was very mediocre.

Now looking at it, it's like turning decay into magic, so funny.

I didn’t expect that Wang Yuanchao is such a great comedian!

After the performance, a question arose: let Wang Yuanchao perform crosstalk?

Old Liu is willing, but Old Jin is not willing!
"Xiao Hou, go and copy a manuscript first!"

Hou Yaowen did not suspect anything and left with the manuscript.

"Old Liu, Yuan Chao gave you this manuscript. As you know, he was responsible for the creative work of the department, and he helped you finish the crosstalk manuscript of Tiger."

Liu Shaodu didn't understand what the director meant. He would accept the director's request for writing articles, but forget about crosstalk. The department had tasks to perform! What task could be more important than the department's tasks?
He was also somewhat regretful because Wang Yuanchao's performance was indeed beyond expectations.

"Director, we have worked together for so many years, you still don't know what kind of person I am, Old Liu? How could I pin Comrade Aid Korea to crosstalk!

Let’s not talk about the fact that Comrade Yuan Chao is a creative talent who needs to go everywhere to collect creative materials and find creative inspiration. Just based on the instructions of the leaders of the department, how can we not give our best support to the whole group? "

Then he turned to Wang Yuanchao and said:

"Yuan Chao, thank you so much for this work!
We have always lacked good scripts for crosstalk, and have been rummaging through the baggage of our predecessors. Your script is refreshing.

I am confident that the Lantern Festival Gala will live up to the creations of our comrades who helped Korea, and that our art troupe will win another award! "

Wang Yuanchao glanced at Director Jin and said quickly:

"Liu Tuan, you are really embarrassing me.

Without Director Jin's support, this article would not have been published.

After hearing my wild idea, the director not only did not stop me, but actively encouraged me to go to the Northeast to experience tigers up close. From Fengtian to Erbin, I have seen many tigers. "

Except for not eating tiger meat, they collected a lot of tiger bones and even a tiger skin.

Director Jin was very satisfied with Wang Yuanchao's good character of not forgetting the well diggers when drinking water. Indeed, if he had not sent this kid to the Northeast, who knows what kind of trouble this kid would have caused in the capital.

This kid is a donkey, he needs to be whipped with a whip from behind.

He smiled and said:
"You kid, I fully support your creation, but it's a requirement issued by the committee. In the Northeast, it's the head of the group who takes care of you the most. I don't have any credit!"

When Captain Liu saw the two men, one was flattering the leader, and the other was modestly flattering the leader above him, he immediately said seriously:
"Director, I need to go back and make some arrangements to see how to present this program. When do you think we can submit it to the higher-ups for review?"

Director Jin coughed twice and said:

"How long do you need it?"

Captain Liu thought about it, gritted his teeth, and said:

"Give me one day, tomorrow at noon, and I promise to hand in a complete work."

The day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and everyone has to take a holiday. It can't be after the holiday, right? So Liu Tuan has no choice. Let's see who can quickly digest and absorb the manuscript today, understand it, and express it completely tomorrow.

Director Jin nodded, very satisfied with the time given by Captain Liu, and said:
"Then you go and make the arrangements first, I'll make an appointment with the leader."

After Captain Liu left, Director Jin looked at Wang Yuanchao with a smile and said:

"You, kid, really gave me a surprise. You were recognized by Lao Liu, the business master, and made me laugh several times. You are this!"

As he said this, he gave Wang Yuanchao a thumbs up.

Wang Yuanchao smiled and said:
"I have no choice. Director, you have already set a timeline. I have to finish it even if I don't eat, drink or sleep."

Director Jin glared and said:
"Am I like a tiger? Why do I push you so hard? Then I'll push you again. Can you complete the department's mission this year?"

Wang Yuanchao quickly begged for mercy:
"Director, we railway people are all over the country, and I have only visited the Northeast! There are more plains and fewer mountains over there. We can't use one corner to represent the whole situation, right?

I dare not say that I can see from east to west, but at least I can see from north to south, right?

When I arrive at a place, I cannot just take a quick look. I must go deep into the local area, observe the spirit and energy of our railway workers, the fruits of our labor, and all aspects, and then seek the inspiration that bursts out at that moment..."

Director Jin interrupted him and said:

“Okay, okay, one year. I’ll give you one year. You must produce a work.

This year you can go wherever you want to collect folk songs. I will approve your plans first, and you can arrange them however you want. I just want to ask you, can you produce results? "

Wang Yuanchao was silent for a while, thinking:
If I achieve results in one year, will there be opportunities to travel around like this in the future?
Not necessarily!
Then he certainly couldn't produce all the works of the railway man at once, and right now, he didn't have any ideas.

But if you can't come up with one, then I can just replace it with a popular song. I'm afraid the big bosses in the department will be happier!
Wang Yuanchao is very good at singing praises.

Isn't it normal to be inspired when seeing the beautiful mountains and rivers of our motherland?

Having come up with the idea of ​​using someone else as a substitute, Wang Yuanchao said firmly:

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Director Jin really became excited, patted the table excitedly, and said:
"well!"

Then he changed the topic and said:
“That wine…”

Wang Yuanchao understood everything and said quickly:
"My master is already brewing it. I'll let him know you can pick it up after the New Year. This time I want him to help brew more. I estimate that 10 to 8 kilograms should be no problem."

Director Jin thought about it and realized that if one kilogram of food is consumed, it would take half a month. If one drinks eight kilograms of food, it would only take about half a year.

He thought the effect was good and was planning to give it to someone else.

"Can't you brew more?"

Thinking of the bill the director gave me last time, it was worth about 416 yuan, which was only worth ten kilograms. Otherwise, wouldn't I be a worthless wine dealer? Moreover, if I drink this wine slowly, I can drink it for half a year. The director was still not satisfied, and he must be going to do a favor and give it away!

Then he had an idea, so he asked:
"There is a medicinal ingredient in this wine, rhino horn. You know, in addition to warming and nourishing the kidney yang, rhino horn also has a cardiotonic effect. It can strengthen the heart's contraction force, increase the amplitude, increase the heart rate, and increase the output per minute. The heart is one of our sources of strength. Without rhino horn, the effect of this wine will be greatly reduced.

As early as 1922, there were no rhinos in our country.

The rhino horns we have now are all stocks from many years ago and are very rare.”

Director Jin's brows were furrowed. He finally came across such a good thing, but surprisingly, surprisingly, it was limited by medicinal materials!
He thought for a while and said:

"Well, after the New Year, you can go and pay your respects to the old man. I'll think of other ways. By the way, see if you can find some colleagues to exchange some more medicinal materials with the old man."

As he spoke, he took out another stack of bills from the drawer, which were worth about 500 yuan. I thought that since this medicinal material was so precious, they wouldn't need a lot of it. This batch of bills could probably be exchanged for another ten or eight kilograms, right?
