The three plays were announced at the beginning of the show, and the three groups of actors rehearsed the play at the same time.

It is undeniable that Li Li and his third group performed on stage at the end, because they had enough time to prepare, so the stage effect presented was theoretically better than that of the first group.

But this can't be helped, after all, the consistency of the recording must be taken into account, and the competition is a three-person PK between the same group, so it doesn't matter which group performs first on stage.

In the play, Cheng Dieyi sang "The Drunken Concubine", "Farewell My Concubine", "The Peony Pavilion" and other tracks, under the guidance of Mr. Li Weikang, Li Li carved it repeatedly, and for more than half an hour, it has basically reached the level of being fake. At present, only real Peking Opera artists can identify Li Li's flaws, and veteran opera fans may not be able to find any faults.

It's talent, no way.

The old gentleman rubbed his hands, looking salivating, he loved Li Li too much.

Li Li asked, "Teacher, how do I master these repertoire now?"

The old gentleman nodded affirmatively: "It's okay!"

Li Li was not at ease, "Why don't we pick out the details again?"

Look, there are also people who take the initiative to increase the amount for themselves! Otherwise, Li Li is very superb in everything he does, first of all, his attitude is correct.

"No, you've reached the ultimate level of imitation now, as for singing, you have to train for years and months, and you're too fast now, and it's unrealistic to want to improve to the level of a famous artist in one step. You're perfectly fine on stage, lad. ”

Li Li bowed deeply: "Thank you, teacher, for your hard work." ”

At this time, Wang Kai and Wang Xiaochen walked into the rehearsal hall, both of them holding the script in their hands, keeping their heads down and reciting them non-stop.

Li Li's Peking Opera instructors are over, and their lines are not familiar yet.

Li Li hurriedly introduced: "Brother Kai, Xiao Chen, this is Mr. Li Weikang, a master of Peking Opera. ”

When Wang Kai heard this, he raised his head with a "bang", trotted over, he held the old man's hand with both hands, and said respectfully: "Hello Dean, I am a student of Shanghai Drama Theater, I am so happy to see your old man!"

The old man squinted and smiled, she was the honorary president of the Shanghai Drama Theater.

Wang Kai's face was full of joy, "I really didn't expect that the program team invited your old man to guide us." ”

The old man asked, "How many times have you been in the Shanghai Drama Theater?"

"03's, Gongjing Opera. ”

"Then you don't need much guidance to learn this in this major!"

"No, no, teacher, I started filming directly after graduation, I have been putting down Peking Opera for a long time, and I have long been unfamiliar, so please take the trouble to do so. Wang Kai said with a smile.

The old man said: "Okay, let's start with the track "Farewell My Concubine", do you know the origin of "Farewell My Concubine", right?"

"I know, "Farewell My Concubine", also known as "Jiuli Mountain", "Chu Han Zheng" and "Ambush on All Sides", is based on the Kunqu opera "The Story of a Thousand Gold" and "Historical Records: Xiang Yu Benji", around the 20s, starring Mei Lanfang, it was renamed. ”

"About the 20s? ”

"Uh......" Wang Kai said embarrassedly: "Teacher, it seems to be 22 years, but I forgot the specific date." ”

"It's really rusty," the old man sighed, and he pointed at Li Li again, "Child, go and get busy with you." ”

"Good teacher. ”

Wang Kai looked at Li Li's back, "Teacher, he ......"

"I'm done coaching, he's fine. ”

"Oh...... Huh?" Wang Kai was stunned, raised his wrist to look at the time, and then looked back at Li Li's disappearing back.

Li Li went back to the lounge to revise the script, he always felt that some things were not satisfactory and wanted to revise it.

The movie "Farewell My Concubine" spans a large period of time, from 1924 to after Wenge, telling the emotional entanglements and historical changes of Cheng Dieyi and his brother Duan Xiaolou for half a century.

The later stage of the movie is very miserable, and it can't pass the program review without revision, Li Li is carefully carving a new ending, this ending must not touch the red line, but also conform to the temperament of the original play, and the acting skills of the three actors will burst out, this is very difficult, Li Li decided to make a beautiful ending, in order to achieve the ideal state of the stage play as much as possible.

20 minutes later, the new ending was finalized by Li Li, based on the previous script, with certain changes. When Li Li excitedly came to the rehearsal room with the script, he saw that Mr. Li Weikang was still guiding Wang Kai hand in hand.

The old gentleman was very serious, but his face was very stern, a little dull, and a little angry.

Isn't the old gentleman very approachable and smiling? Who made him angry?

Li Li was puzzled, and stood at the door and didn't dare to approach.

Wang Xiaochen touched him lightly, "Li Li, when the old gentleman was guiding you, was you in such a bad mood?"

"No, the old man was in a good mood at the time, very amiable!"

"That's weird, since the old gentleman beat you away, he instructed Wang Kailai to have a nose that is not a nose and an eye, and his old man seems to be very strict, but he is a strict master and a high apprentice. No, I'll memorize the lines again. ”

Seeing that Wang Xiaochen turned to the last part of the script, Li Li hurriedly handed over the newly printed script to her, "Don't worry, I revised the ending, you recite the new version!"

"Ahh

Li Li sneered, it would be nice if he could meet an actor who was in the same tone as himself.

After waiting for another half an hour, Wang Kai finally passed the customs. I saw that the old man looked like he hated iron but not steel, shook his head and sighed and sat on the chair.

In fact, Wang Kai's basic skills are very solid, the level is good, although he has not touched Peking Opera for more than 10 years, but the background is there, but he has no choice but to be in front of Zhuyu, Li Li's previous performance is too good, he is too much ahead of Wang Kai in talent, can the old gentleman not be full of emotion? And this Wang Kai is still from the drama theater.

Wang Kai was treated coldly throughout the whole process, he never figured out what the reason was, could it be that the old story of being an instructor when he was in school reached the ears of the old gentleman?

It wasn't until the three of them rehearsed together for the first time that Wang Kai instantly understood what the problem was.

The first rehearsal is the easiest, no supporting roles are used for the time being, just a simple alignment of words and a smooth down of the script.

When it came to the singing part, Wang Kai said confidently: "Xiaoli, you can sing boldly with confidence, don't be afraid of the business trip pool, with me, I can take you well!"

"Humph!"

This "hum" was not hummed by Li Li, but by the old gentleman in the seat next to him.

This old gentleman really loves and hates clearly, and he lives without concealment!

Li Li said: "I'm relieved to have Brother Kai's words, then I'll sing it!"

"Sing it!"

Li Li cleared his throat: "Since I, I have fought with the king in the east and west, suffering from wind and frost and toil, year after year. Hate only hates the unreasonable, Qin has ruined the living ......"

As soon as Li Li opened his voice, Wang Kai's jaw instantly fell to the ground, he looked at Li Li in a daze, and instantly petrified into a statue.

Wang Xiaochen also has a foundation in Peking Opera, she exclaimed "wow", surprised, and when Li Li finished singing, she applauded vigorously, "It's amazing, Mom, you can't hide it, you said before that you don't understand Peking Opera, it turned out to be a smoke bomb!"

"No, no," Li Li said to Wang Kai again, "Brother Kai! Brother Kai?"

"Huh?"

"It's time for you to sing!"

"Oh! you...... Don't you have no foundation in Peking Opera?

"I'm not lying!"

"That'...... So how can you be so professional?"

"I can learn!" Li Li said innocently.

"Learn? I learned this level in such a short time? Then I have been learning to feed the dog for four years?"

At this time, a voice floated from the door, "If you can't reach the level of your four-year hard study in such a short time, the word 'genius' is fed to the dog?"

Wang Kai looked sideways, and there were several mentors who came in with Zhang Ershan.

Wang Kai hugged his head and said, "Teacher Xu Zheng, I regret it a little!

Xu Zheng asked, "What's wrong?"

"He sang "Farewell My Concubine" for more than half an hour, and basically reached my level. ”

The old gentleman added a sentence on the side: "There is also "Peony Pavilion", "The Drunken Concubine", and "......"

Zhang Ziyi exclaimed, "Really?"

Wang Kai: "At least the first two sentences sung are true!"

Old gentleman: "It's all true!"

Zhang Ziyi slapped her face with joy, "Great, the problem I'm most worried about is not a problem." I'll just say, this group has to send Li Li to fight to be sure. ”

Wang Kai's heart tightened suddenly, he realized that he had stepped on thunder, and inexplicably had a feeling of wanting to retire, such as losing his voice, catching a severe cold, and angina...... But he's a gentleman after all.

Zhang Ziyi, who had been frowning for more than an hour, clapped her hands happily at this time and urged: "Time is very urgent, everyone rehearse immediately, and strive to come up with the best works for the audience!"

The rehearsal room was instantly busy, and everyone's nerves were tense.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, tonight's [Mentor Team Battle] officially kicked off.

The three star instructors and this year's flying guest Chen Kaige were all seated, and everyone on the jury was also present.

The audience at the scene was chanting the names of these big stars, and the atmosphere was very warm.

After the warmth returned to the stage, the recording continued.

After all, the competition has reached the third stage, and the actors who can stay are very powerful, and they will never be able to reach this stage by relying on handsomeness, beauty, and cuteness.

The performances of the first two groups were "Meteor Garden" and "Witnessed by the Whole People", and these two groups performed these two dramas very well, and the audience was very satisfied with the applause.

When the curtain came down on the group of "All People Witnessed", everyone applauded and said:

"In tonight's show, everyone's level is really high!"

"In vain, they did a good job. ”

……

"Zhang Ershan's acting skills are still online! If there is no Li Li, he is the best in this age group!!"

"Xiaoyuan, aren't you a fan of Zhang Ershan?"

"No, please call me Li Li's brainless fan!"

……

"The next group of Li Li will be on stage, and I don't know how prepared their group is!"

"I didn't give the camera, but I don't think it's a play, Peking Opera, how can I act without Peking Opera background?"

"Yes, it's unrealistic! I expect this group to play too badly!"

"The difficulty of "Farewell My Concubine" is definitely more difficult than the two scenes performed by Li Li before, which tests the performer's background too much. ”

"Don't say anything, just be silent!"

……

Everyone was discussing, but listening to the warm words on the stage: "The next group will perform, the classic work of the times "Farewell My Concubine" brought by Li Li, Wang Kai, and Wang Xiaochen!

Xu Zhengdao: ""Farewell My Concubine" is an epoch-making work, the first film in my country to win the Palme d'Or, the highest award at the Cannes International Film Festival, and one of the 100 best films in the world. ”

Zhang Jiayi: "The challenge to actors is too great, Wang Kai studied Peking Opera in a regular drama college, he is fine, but Li Like is a complete layman, and he is also a star, this is too difficult." ”

Zhang Ziyi put her hands on her chest, looking frightened, "It's really too difficult, my heart is pounding now, how can Li Li deal with this difficulty!"

Sure enough, they are all actors, although they have seen Li Li overcome the problems of Peking Opera the day after tomorrow, but at this moment, they still show great worries, to put it bluntly, in order to create a stage atmosphere.

Variety shows, it's all like this.

warmly said: "Director Chen Kaige, as the director of "Farewell My Concubine", what are your expectations for tonight's re-enactment?"

Chen Kaige said: "It's been 267 years since this drama, and the people have gone, and I am full of emotion." Mr. Zhang Guorong's portrayal of Cheng Dieyi is extremely delicate and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and I hope that the actor can withstand the pressure and play this role well.

And, if someone in this group is particularly satisfying to me, I'll give them a gift. ”

Warm asked curiously, "What gift?"

"Keep it a secret for now!"

"Well, I hope the actors can have outstanding performances to win the mysterious gift of director Chen Kaige. Okay, please welcome the next group of performances with warm applause!"

Wow!

The applause rang out, the warmth stepped down, and the curtain gradually opened.

In the original play, Cheng Dieyi (called "Little Bean" in childhood) was born with six fingers when she was a child, and her mother, who was a girl, had to cut off one of her son's fingers with her own hands in order for her child to have a skill, so she sent her son to the Guanjia Opera Troupe to learn opera.

The harsh learning environment during the Xiaodouzi period was hindered by the problem of stage time and starring roles, so it could not be reproduced on the stage. So Li Li designed the plot where he and his brother went back to the opera troupe to visit their teacher, so as to show the difficulty of learning drama in the old society.

When the curtain opened, it was the scene of the children in the troupe learning to play, and the scenes of bitterness, laughter, anger, and scolding poured into the eyes of all the audience.

A child's hands were tied to a pillar, his legs were violently broken by the adults, and the surrounding area was littered with square stones, which were used to hold the child's legs.

The child cried out in tears, and the adults on either side rebuked:

"Don't shout!"

"Stand up!"

A kind old man smiled at the child and said, "If you want to be noble in front of others, you will be sinned by others, and your days will be long!"

In another scene, an elderly man is holding a ring ruler to assess the children's homework, and the children are answering in turn while hanging their legs.

One of the tall children: "I want to be Xiang Yuhu, pull out the mountain and cover the world, the times are not good, the skulls will not pass away, but the skulls will not pass away, but what can be helped, what can be helped! ）”

Smack!

The ring ruler hit the child's palm hard, and the child cried loudly in pain.

……

The miserable cries on the stage made the audience frown, especially the scene of pressing the child on the bench and beating him with a stick, which couldn't help but make the audience feel pity:

"Mom, the old society punished children so much?"

"It's cruel!"

"It's better to be socialist!"

"Shhhh

"Wow!

……

Everyone glanced at the corner of the stage, and saw Cheng Dieyi (played by Li Li) and Duan Xiaolou (played by Wang Kai) in suits walking on the stage side by side.

The time of this scene was before the Anti-Japanese War, when "Farewell My Concubine" co-performed by Cheng Dieyi and her brother had just become popular.

The character of Cheng Dieyi is a drama idiot, with a typical gender ambiguity, it is difficult to distinguish between inside and outside the play, and even in life, he maintains a lot of Yu Ji's posture.

Use one word to describe Cheng Dieyi - if he is not crazy, he can't live, he has gradually become difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood in and out of the play.

The eyes of the audience were all focused on a corner of the stage, and everyone was infinitely curious about how far Li Li could interpret this peerless classic role.

But I saw that Cheng Dieyi walked on the stage next to his senior brother, his face was soft, his waist was graceful, and his gestures were charming, but he was not pretentious!

Zhang Ziyi looked at the stage in surprise and said to herself: "It's so elegant and beautiful!"

This time I was surprised not by the stage effect, but by the real shock!!
