0359 A Timeless Classic Photo
Most of the spectators entered early, and the upper and lower floors were full.
Wang Lei glanced at the audience.
"This time it's different, many young girls came to see Ji Ming. β
"I guess so. Song Yi stood next to him and also probed out to take a look: "Hey, are you standing in the back, are you a few colleagues in the hospital?"
Renyi actors can come in directly, with their work permits, or just brush their faces - Tian Yihe, Zhou Shaowen, and a few young and middle-aged actors stand together, they didn't buy tickets, and they couldn't sit down this time, so they went to the last row as usual. In fact, even if there are empty seats, many times they like to stand at the back.
peers are light, and they all hope to test their performance strength under the strictest conditions.
Standing at the end, both in terms of sound conditions and distance, there is a greater challenge to the performance effect. The further back you sit, the less detail you'll be able to see about the performance, that's for sure, unless you hold a telescope, the field of view will be limited. The second is the voice, there is always no microphone on the stage of Renyi's drama, this is one of their insistences, so the lower the voice you can hear if you are too late, and the emotions in the voice will be weaker.
"Maybe we can't hear Ji Ming's lines when we stand here. Zhou Shaowen whispered to a person beside him. He didn't tell Tian Yihe about this anymore, this Teacher Tian really disappointed him, and he still wanted to gamble with him, is he a person who likes to gamble? Is he not even qualified to be recommended?
The colleague next to him is different, and often speaks ill of Ji Ming with him.
A duo of broken mouths.
"You're too-" The second man glanced at Zhou Shaowen: "People have acted in many dramas, how can they not hear the lines? You can't just talk nonsense just to have an opinion about him." Although Ji Ming is a problem, he is indispensable at a young age, but he has a problem with his quality, which does not mean that we have to talk nonsense. β
Or are you ruthless.
Zhou Shaowen stood up straight, his front was densely packed with human heads, and there were really a lot of little girls - it would be great if he came to see him.
The lights are dim.
"I'm a little nervous. Li Ran muttered to the fans next to him.
"Shhhh β
The curtain was raised, and the applause was thunderous, and the little girls were in unison, obeying orders and listening to the command, and gave warm applause at the opening time, and then when the music started, the applause stopped instantly, and the whole theater fell into the ultimate tranquility.
Compositions by renowned composers float from sound equipment throughout the hall, and a bright moon lights up behind the stage. The little Puyi prop man reflected a lonely and tiny back in the bright moon - "The Last Emperor" began.
It's a real staging.
The third golden scale on Ji Ming's wrist has been heating up slightly, and the anti-heaven buff of +1 for all skills on the stage is playing a role.
The old eunuch who Han Ming asked to play was the first to feel it.
At the end of the first act, the 16-year-old Pu Yi took the stage, and Eunuch Sun said, "The concubine is also for the good of the emperor, these years, the thieves and rebellious ministers are waiting outside the Forbidden City, those reckless soldiers and bandits, who knows when they will rush in, we still have to pinch it together in our own palace, the emperor." β
At that time, Concubine Duankang and Pu Yi had a very fierce quarrel, and found Pu Yi's biological mother into the palace to reprimand, but although Pu Yi's biological mother was Prince Fujin, she had a strong personality, and after being reprimanded, she felt humiliated, and when she went home, she swallowed medicine and committed suicide, and only lived to be 37 years old.
The contradiction between Emperor Xun and the concubine intensified.
Eunuch Sun, as an old minister who served the Empress Dowager Longyu, was anxious.
To say that although Han Mingqiu does not have a ball appearance, there are still a few points in the play, and as soon as he appears, he has only a few lines, and he explains it very properly. At this time, the young Pu Yi, who was standing sideways, did not face the audience, he just glanced at Han Mingqiu, which made his skin densely pimple.
What kind of eyes are that?
Gloomy, angry, especially with a little bookish taste of perennial reading, a little cringe trapped in the deep palace, of course, the most eye-catching background color is "young", that is a young eye, you look at it, you know that the owner of this look is not old, stubborn, confused...... Even the thick anger is still alive.
"What about my mother?"
Ji Ming turned his head and faced the audience, this was his first appearance in the whole play, it was bland, but as soon as he appeared, many audiences, it should be said that most ordinary audiences, forgot that this person was Ji Ming, a star, a traffic, a powerful faction, what is it - he is Pu Yi.
He is Pu Yi.
Young, 16 years old, still in the Forbidden City, that Pu Yi.
Once the persuasiveness is established and the character is established, the whole play will be much easier for the audience, because people are preconceived. So why is Ji Ming reluctant to have too much exposure, in order to prevent people from preconceived notions that this is Ji Ming when they watch his movies, seeing it every day, it's too dramatic.
At this time, Pu Yi's impression had already fallen in the hearts of the audience.
Next, everyone will naturally understand the plot and understand the lines from Pu Yi's point of view - this is the best state and communication on and off the stage. I acted, you believed, I left, you followed, I turned around, hey, I almost bumped into it, my eyes were paired, I was crying and laughing, I was happy and sad, I was proud, or wronged, I was a good person, or a bully, at this glance, you saw it directly in your heart, and this role also entered your brain.
The plot progressed slowly, the big wedding, the two heroines appeared, Feng Juntou attacked, panicked...... The first act of the dynastic elegy falls.
This drama has entered the heart, and it is slowly flowing in.
Those who have watched the play, such as the one who is unwilling to let his granddaughter chase stars, tastes good at this time, thinks it is good, tastes right, and thinks that this opening is not good, and he did not wait for it to enter the plot calmly, but all the characters, all kinds of backgrounds, and all kinds of emotional connections have been accepted silently - it is a surprise, it has the meaning of drinking the first tea before the Ming Dynasty, the fragrance is curling, not rushing, not strong.
And for many fans who don't watch dramas much, like Ji Ming, there is already a sense of expectation in their psychology at this time, and they slowly enter the mentality of an audience from a simple fan mentality - what will happen to the little emperor who was kicked out?
When the second act rises, the audience is too focused.
Pu Yi, who is already older in appearance, is waiting for eunuch Sun who has a more rickety back.
"What about the Queen?"
"I went out early in the morning, saying that the wife of the French ambassador had a party. β
Pu Yi's pen paused in mid-air, Han Mingqiu felt the difference again, this anger was about to come over in the air, when did Ji Ming already be so mysterious? If the audience can feel this anger so clearly at this time, then that effect has to explode, right?
"She's more communicative than I am. Wen embroidered in the garden?"
"The princess is in the room. β
"She's getting weirder and weirder now......"
The scene then turned to Wanrong, who was indulgent in the concession, and turned to Wen Xiu, who was discussing divorce with her cousin...... Then I heard the news that Wen Xiu wanted a divorce.
Eunuch Sun stood far away, Wanrong stood on the side of Pu Yi's desk, she was closer to Pu Yi, a little farther away from Wen Xiu, Pu Yi stood in the middle of the whole composition - this famous scene, after Ji Ming went further, the performance was hearty, even though Lan Yingying and Song Yi did not have a +1 bug, but in the process of rehearsal, they were used to handing themselves over to Ji Ming, and they could fiddle with it as much as they wanted.
In this way, with the improvement of Ji Ming's ability to control the scene, the sparks of the whole scene splashed wildly, and he took a step back, and it was almost his own slow motion - it was not that the speed was artificially slowed down, but that the blend of body and emotion left their actions in the audience's mind changed in time and depth.
This is a very normal state, for example, if it is a pastime, it may be lost after watching it, and it will not go to the brain. But if you look at the colorful fragments of some classic works, those descriptions, those picture senses, and those emotions will be "around the beam for three days, and the afterglow will be endless" in your mind, which is a truth.
At this time, the audience watching the play also felt this way.
It's just that the people on stage are still playing that rhythm, but in their minds, the whole texture has become deeper.
Until the end, Wen Xiu, who fled from Tianjin, announced her divorce from Pu Yi in the newspaper, and the voice of the narrator was recorded by Pu Zhongxin himself: "After Wen Xiu left Jinjing, he announced the dissolution of his marriage with Pu Yi in the newspaper, and he has nothing to do with it since then." This proclamation, in Beijing and Tianjin, in the whole of China, Asia, and the world at that time, was like a thunderbolt that shocked the sky, which was a groundbreaking event for women in their marital autonomy, and was known as the 'Sword Concubine Revolution' in history. β
The lights are on, and Pu Yi is independent of the study.
A few scattered newspapers sat on the desk.
"Daofei Revolution?heh, heh," Pu Yi leaned forward a little, his eyes looking straight at the audience.
A large number of viewers feel that they are watching her, especially some female fans with better positions, who feel like they are being targeted at this time, but it doesn't feel very good, and the fine grains on the skin are all defensive.
It's so impactful.
This scene, during the big rehearsal, is quite a test of Ji Ming, at this time to go further, his various shapes, all kinds of lines, walking and retreating on the stage, are combined with the scenery and lighting, with his more and more exquisite emotional leakage, the entire central part of the stage is angry with him, sad together, crazy together, silent together......
The second act falls.
Applause and applause, one after another, full of color.
The third act is mainly a rivalry with the officer and Wanrong.
Especially Wang Lei's devil officer.
This eldest brother is neither as sophisticated and improvisable as Han Mingqiu, nor like Lan Yingying and Song Yi, who can hand himself over, he belongs to the middle - so from the time of rehearsal, he was very difficult, too difficult, he was a little difficult to pick up Ji Ming, and he was reluctant to be taken away, so he was embarrassed in the middle.
Ren Ming didn't expect that what he was most worried about on the eve of the performance was actually Wang Lei.
You must know that you should find a more sophisticated actor, age is not a problem, but at the time, I thought that they were all young and middle-aged and more suitable, but now that I think about it, it is a bit self-limiting.
But at this time, Wang Lei found a sense of smoothness.
Especially the dispute between the officer and Pu Yi in the Shengjing Palace, the devil soldiers behind him seemed to give him strength and temperament to counter Ji Ming's omnipresent dramatic tension - he soon realized that this was Ji Ming supporting him.
If it weren't for the stage, he would have to kneel.
Big brother, don't you want to be so fierce.
Ji Ming, who was standing in front of him, had an unabated level of performance, but at the same time, he could also use the ghost soldiers, the position, and the scenery to help him compete with Ji Ming himself - and then the tension and energy of the whole play exploded upward, just like Master Cai's pyrotechnic installation art - "The Ladder", layer upon layer.
When Pu Yi finally admits defeat and the devil walks away, it seems that a lone wolf, or a lost dog, only barks, and in the dimmer and dimmer light, the most important characteristic of Pu Yi's life, the puppet, is directly put on the hearts of the audience.
If you see it, this is a puppet, this is Pu Yi.
From the enthronement, to Emperor Xun, from the capital, to Jinjing, from the Forbidden City to the Shengjing Palace...... He's always been a puppet.
When the third scene fell, Ji Ming turned slightly sideways, and his figure was even more lonely.
In the final epilogue, Ji Ming's big monologue is the mainstream, as well as a large number of narrations - from Longyu, from Eunuch Sun, from Wenxiu Wanrong, from the concession foreigners, from the Chinese people, from the devil's ...... They came one by one, Pu Yi either defended, or accused, or silent, or fearful, and then gradually they began to overlap, and there were all kinds of voices in all directions.
Ji Ming rushed left and right on the stage, he said unwritten words, sometimes high, sometimes low, categorical, sometimes erratic - in the end, he lay on the stage with his whole body, and a beam of chasing light fell, trapping him in it.
Pu Yi quieted down, and he even felt funny: "Ha, haha, ha, haha." β
The end ended when he sang the red song of New China, and he sat there, panicked and calm, and looked at each other speechlessly, as if asking, who are you? Why are you so disgusting?
After the curtain ended, the entire theater was quiet for nearly half a minute.
No words were spoken, no one applauded, no one exited, even the lights seemed to be frozen, or more accurately, as if they had entered the time of the sage.
There was no sense of worry backstage, and they didn't feel that half a minute had passed at all - the degree of immersion in the plot backstage would only be greater than that of the audience. The lights came on, and a light pulled everyone out of the stage world.
Ji Ming's fans suddenly remembered what the organizer said.
After that, it's our time.
"Ahhhh
Uh-yo.
I'm scared to death.
These little girls are so wild, if it were my grandfather, I would be sixty years younger......
"Oooo β
The onomatopoeia of all sorts of cheers, together with the applause of the tide, transformed the whole theater into a factoryβthe kind of factory of the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, where the machines roared, the workers were in good spirits, and everyone wore plateau red and smiling faces.
Noisy, joyful.
"Let's go. β
Ren Ming smiled and waved, and dozens of actors, three rows in front and back, came to the stage - seeing the curtain call actors coming up, between the palms that were already red, there was a more enthusiastic sound.
"Good. β
All the cheers turned into shouts of "good" at this time - there are old audiences in their old age, new fans with excited faces, gentle women, and heroic big brothers, at this moment, all stand up, without hesitation, and smash the applause, praise, and praise onto the stage.
It's all sincere.
Like the stars falling, hanging in this theater world, shining brightly.
Ji Ming was standing next to Ren Ming, the middle place, and the destination of all the audience's emotions, most of the people were looking at him, he even felt that he had sharp eyes, and he could see the emotions in the eyes of so many audiences across the stage.
Yes!
The limbs are hundred, as if they are electrified, and after the numb crispy, they are all comfortable.
Bow, bow, bow.
After a continuous bow, it was still a few minutes of waiting before all the applause subsided, as if it was a carnival.
"Thank you," Ren Ming walked out and bowed again alone: "Thank you friends for supporting, thank you to all the audience, and thank you to Ji Ming's fans, haha, I see a lot of young people, very happy, you are willing to enter the theater, and you can support Ji Ming in such a way that respects the drama and the final theater performance, I think Ji Ming will be proud of you, and I am especially grateful to you." β
I understand you, Ren Yuan.
Fans are excited, really excited, you must know that as a traffic fan, it is really a bad life, but if there is a little praise, you have to provide it. Who is this person now, he is the director of the Renyi Theater, one of the most well-known stage directors in China, and he praises them.
Mother, it's really been a fan for a long time, not only can you meet an idol like Ji Ming, but you can also be praised by people like Ren Ming.
Some of the girls were in tears.
But they still smiled happily, especially when they saw Ji Ming standing there and giving them a thumbs up.
After Ren Ming opened his business for a while, he began to talk about the creative process of this play...... That's what the premiere meant to be.
There are not many bigwigs in the audience who came to cheer today, one is that Renyi didn't invite them in particular, it was already hot, and there was no need to do this again. The second is a movie adaptation after all, and there is another version of the student play, which inevitably makes people not have the urge to take a glimpse at the earliest.
But after today, surely many people will regret it.
Vice Dean Ge of Mandarin, came to help Ji Ming's mother's family, and sitting next to him was Mr. Feng Yuanyan, the actor leader of Renyi.
"Okay. β
"Is it good?" Feng Yuanyi's face was a little solemn, this was not emotional solemnity, it was a witnessing solemnity, seeing that something great was born, his heart was solemn: "It's good!"
"Haha, you didn't see the rehearsal?"
"When I saw it, I thought it was really good. Feng Yuanyan shook his head: "It's really the first time I've seen an actor who plays like a child, and he can play to this extent, making you feel like he is enduring it when rehearsing." β
"Ji Ming?"
Feng Yuanyan looked at Deputy Ge Yuanyuan's disgusting smile, although his small screen image was terrible, he was actually a relatively mild-tempered person: "Yes, there are successors in your courtyard." β
Deputy Ge put away his smile and looked at the stage with emotion: "Aren't you also acting in your play, we and you are not as good as having successors in the career of stage drama." β
Feng Yuanyi nodded silently.
"Now, let's let our leading actor, Pu Yi's actor, Ji Ming, say a few words. β
Ji Ming took the microphone, pondered for a while, and suddenly smiled sideways, the microphone was under his ear, and the bright light on the theater was like a curtain, making him feel as if he was standing in the light cluster - a fan sitting in the middle of the theater kept holding a single-lens reflex to find a chance to take pictures.
This photo has since become Ji Ming's most widely circulated photo, comparable to Marilyn Monroe covering her skirt and looking forward to Shenfei - he stood on the stage, bathed in the white light, holding the microphone in one hand, holding the elbow in the other, the black figure in the backlight, slender and strong, his head slightly tilted up, his mouth open, laughing, happy but not arrogant.
Everything is the best.
