Chapter Seventy-Three: Confirmed Appearance

Although Xiao Yao has never read the regular script in his previous life or in this life, he is not so incomprehensible. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Xiao Yao reads the book very quickly, and he is not slow to read the script, and in ten minutes, Xiao Yao finished reading the script.

The script is called "Happiness Terminal", which has the same name as a love movie starring Tom Hanks that Xiao Yao watched in his previous life, but the storyline is similar to another biographical feature film starring Will Smith and his son called "When Happiness Knocks on the Door".

It is mainly about a single father who raises his son independently, and has to face the pressure of a difficult life and the problem of how to educate his children. The huge gap between dreams and reality makes the father suffer a huge psychological torment, but he has to endure patience to cultivate the spirit of optimism to face the predicament.

Whenever the father encounters a setback, the son is very sensible to give his father encouragement and become his strong spiritual backing. The father and son supported each other, and they struggled all the way, and finally ushered in the hope of a great turning point in their lives.

"You should have come to me for this role more than a year ago. Xiao Yao closed the script and said to Sun Zhihao. There is only one child's role in the whole play, that is, the son of the father and son, so Xiao Yao knows what role he wants to play without asking.

"More than a year ago, not to mention that I hadn't written this script at that time, even if it did, I didn't dare ask you to play it. Sun Zhihao said with a smile. This little guy really understands, and talking to him already feels like talking to an adult, and it's really scary to think about.

Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying were suspicious of their conversations.

"I'll see. Ye Jiaying took the script directly from Xiao Yao's hand and read it, and Xiao Siqi, who looked curious, also leaned his head and came over to read it together.

"Why? At that time, wasn't I more similar to the characters in the play, and it was easier to play well?" Xiao Yao asked Sun Zhihao strangely.

More than a year ago, Ye Jiaying had not yet appeared, and Xiao Siqi was also a single father and son with Xiao Yao's son, and the father and son also relied on each other and supported each other. Although their material lives are too good for me to know where the father and son in the script have gone, spiritually, they have something in common.

"I learned the Stanley system, and I taught the Stanley system," Sun Zhihao began to explain, but at the beginning, he was interrupted by Xiao Yao.

"What is the Stanley system?" Xiao Yao asked.

Seeing Xiao Yao's puzzled face, Sun Zhihao was inexplicably relieved in his heart, it turned out that this demon didn't know everything.

After cleaning up his mood, Sun Zhihao explained to Xiao Yao: "The Stanley system is one of the three major systems of theatrical performance, and the other two are the Brecht system and the Mei Lanfang system. You're still young, and I won't tell you that much. If you are interested, when you grow up in the future, you will be admitted to the acting department of our film school or other drama colleges, and you will be able to learn and understand systematically when the time comes. ”

"I'm just going to tell you briefly, our school of Stanley system is also known as the method school, to let the actor fully integrate into the role, the actor and the character merge into the same person, and naturally the role can be played well. At that time, it can be said that it was not acting, but that the actor had become the person in the role. ”

"You're too young, you're too smart, and if you are too similar to the character in reality, I'm afraid that after I help you integrate into the character, I won't be able to help you get out of the role. If this situation is not handled well, it is possible for people to go crazy. Don't say that your grandfather and your father will find me desperately when the time comes, and I can't forgive myself. ”

"Acting can turn into a madman? Being an actor is also a risky thing. Xiao Yao exclaimed.

"What, scared?" Sun Zhihao asked with a smile.

"No, I'm more interested in acting. Xiao Yao shook his head with a smile, then nodded and said, "I agree to act in this drama." ”

"Bayi, have you thought it through?" Ye Jiaying, who had finished reading the script, interjected.

"Rest assured, this is only a rare and extreme case. Sun Zhihao helped and said with relief, "Isn't there still me watching." I've been a teacher for more than ten years, and I've been a director and director of a lot of plays, have you ever seen my students or the actors in my plays really have a situation where they can't be withdrawn from the role? I won't make random promises if I don't have the confidence to do it, so I said that if it was more than a year ago, I wouldn't have asked Bayi to play this role. Now, I'm confident that August 1st won't be the kind of extreme situation. ”

"Since you promised it, Bayi also agreed, and we have no opinion. Xiao Siqi said, "Is there anything else we need to do? What is the schedule for rehearsals and performances? Do you want us to come forward and coordinate with the school to ask for leave?"

"This is naturally needed. Sun Zhihao nodded, "But before I talk about this, I want to tell you about the remuneration first." It's true that we have a good relationship, but this kind of thing, even if you don't ask, I have to explain it to you clearly. ”

"You don't really have to tell us about that. Xiao Siqi shook his head with a smile, "Bayi's current labor income is all at his disposal." In the past, he entrusted my agent Sister Xu to negotiate the income from writing songs, and then the money went directly into his own account. But Sister Xu is a professional singer agent, and she is not familiar with the market in the entertainment industry, so she can't help much. We all believe in your character, you can talk to Bayi yourself. ”

"Then why don't you find Jiaying's agent?" Sun Zhihao proposed.

"No need," Xiao Yao said, "I don't want to be paid, just the tuition I pay you." ”

"What a job. Sun Zhihao shook his head again and again, looked at Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying.

"I'm okay anyway. Xiao Siqi spread his hands and added: "Actually, Bayi has a lot of money in his small treasury, and it's really not bad for your reward." I support Bayi. ”

"Then it's better to do this, aren't you going out for your honeymoon tomorrow? Then from tomorrow, let Bayi live in my house, and I will take care of all his food, lodging and transportation until you come back, how about it?" Sun Zhihao looked at Xiao Siqi's attitude and made another proposal.

"It's still the same sentence, I don't have an opinion, it mainly depends on Bayi himself. Xiao Siqi said with a smile.

"Do you have a piano at home?" Xiao Yao asked Sun Zhihao.

"Yes, Do'er is also learning the piano. Sun Zhihao said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll go. Xiao Yao nodded.

With the matter settled, the next step is to schedule rehearsals and performances. Originally, Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao planned to take two months off, but according to Sun Zhihao's meaning, they only needed to take half a month off.

According to Sun Zhihao's arrangement, in the first half of the month, he will mainly "go to the scene", thinking about how to express the content of the script on the stage, during which he needs to discuss the sound and light effects and set props with lighting, sound, and stage art, and decide how to arrange the scene. This stage is a lot of work, with about three hours in the morning and afternoon each day. At the same time, the guidance of Xiao Yao's acting skills was also carried out in the evening during this time.

If everything goes well, half a month later, the formal rehearsal stage will begin, and the real rehearsal time will be two hours every night, starting at seven o'clock and ending at nine o'clock, which will not require Xiao Yao to ask for leave. It's just that Xiao Yao can't live on campus for a month, and he also needs to negotiate with the school. As for the performances, the time is arranged on weekends, every Friday and Saturday at half past seven in the evening, which has no impact on Xiao Yao's schooling.

The three members of the Xiao family had no objection to Sun Zhihao's arrangement, and the matter was settled smoothly. Tomorrow the National Day holiday is over, and the school will start classes. Xiao Siqi and Sun Zhihao will take Xiao Yao to school to ask for leave, and then set off with Ye Jiaying for their honeymoon abroad, while Xiao Yao will follow Sun Zhihao for a one-month drama study and rehearsal and a one-and-a-half-month drama performance.

For the school, it is not so easy for a student to take half a month's leave at once, but fortunately, Xiao Yao's academic performance is very good, and his star father brought another star director to the school to ask for leave in person, and the school was not too embarrassed. As for the problem of living on campus in the second half of the month, it is even less of a problem.

The school stipulates that all first-year freshmen must live in the school, in order to cultivate and exercise the child's ability to live independently, after the second grade, the school does not require that the school must be forced to live in the school, now Xiao Yao is already a second-year student, before Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying to prepare for the wedding, both of them are busy, so they have been living in the school, and now taking this opportunity, Xiao Yao, who has lost his freshness in the school, simply changed from living in school to day school.

The school was done, Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying boarded a plane to Europe to start their honeymoon trip, and Xiao Yao took his luggage to live in Sun Zhihao's house.

Sun Zhihao's home environment is also very good, a small two-story villa, the size is about the same as the Xiao family's new home, but the layout is quite different. Both the father and son of the Xiao family play music, and the most important thing in the family is the piano room. Although the Sun family also has a piano room, the more conspicuous one is the study.

Sun Zhihao and his wife are both actors, and now Sun Zhihao has a variety of identities such as a university teacher, director, screenwriter, producer, etc., in addition to his identity as an actor, so it is normal to have a big study.

Sun Zhihao's wife, Hu Xuena, is only four years apart in age with Sun Zhihao, but she was Sun Zhihao's student when he first became a teaching assistant. is also a graduate of film school, Hu Xuena was also an excellent actress who was a smash hit, and was one of the famous "Four Little Flowers" that year. It's just that after marrying Sun Zhihao, Hu Xuena has slowly faded out of the showbiz, and she has become a good wife and mother at home with peace of mind.

"August 1 is here, welcome welcome. When Sun Zhihao brought Xiao Yao home, Hu Xuena was already standing at the door to greet him warmly. When he saw Xiao Yao, he immediately came out and took the suitcase from Xiao Yao.

"Hello Aunt Hu. Xiao Yao greeted obediently. The five families in the third season of "Where Are You Going, Dad" maintained a family gathering at least once a year, but the whole family participated, and Xiao Yao and Hu Xuena had also met several times, and they would not be strangers.

"Where's Duo'er?" Xiao Yao asked his little friend as he entered the door.

"Do'er went to school, she didn't take half a month off like you. Sun Zhihao said with a smile.

"Oh!" Xiao Yao nodded, forgetting about this stubble.
