Chapter 131: Introducing a New Star
While Gu Nanqiao and Su Yiyang were chatting, the door of the office was suddenly knocked a few times.
Su Yiyang was not surprised by the sudden visitor at this time, and said generously in the direction of the door, "Please come in", and sure enough, it was Feng Tan who pushed the door and walked into the office.
Seeing Gu Nanqiao and Su Yiyang chatting in the office, Feng Tan teased with great interest, "The major shareholder and the art consultant have neglected their duties together, is it because the recent performance results are too good, let you two be idle like this?"
Su Yiyang ignored this ridicule, grabbed Gu Nanqiao's shoulders with a bit of abuse and motioned for her to go over, and then leaned lazily on the back of the sofa chair and raised his chin towards Feng Tan.
"Whether the performance is good or not, it can't delay my love invitation on the tea table, you can take a look first. Su Yiyang said casually, and then as if he remembered something, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at Feng Tan, "But, you can, so calm, I thought that this invitation had just been sent to the mailroom, and you would come and knock on the door of my office." ”
"I want to come over directly, it's not taking Boss Su's salary and being a monk for a day."
"I said Feng Tan, there are no outsiders here, the three of us know each other, no one can blind anyone, don't talk to me about those useless monks, what kind of monk are you, it is clearly the Arhat we hired from outside, it's too late to supply, who has the ability to let you hit the bell"
"Boss Su said this, I can't afford to wait, busy with work is not considered to be a bell for you" Feng Tan chuckled, but explained the reason why he was late, "Uncle Fan's rehearsal there is a little change, I have met with him a few times, and I have some opinions by the way, isn't it overtime?"
"You're talking about the scene where the master and Youyou played" Gu Nanqiao only thought about it a little, and knew which one Feng Tan was talking about, "By the way, Feng Tan, you are an expert in this area, I just want to hear your opinion, what do you think needs to be changed?"
That's the youth version of Farewell My Concubine, which was recently launched in the spring garden.
Recently, the troupe has developed rapidly, and Chu Youyou has also grown very fast, from a small role that used to play soy sauce and may not be able to withstand at critical moments, he has quickly grown into a mature Peking Opera actor who is enough to stand alone.
With the unanimous approval of several old artists, they quickly proposed to let Chu Youyou choose the main beam to perform a few big plays, and become a third-echelon celebrity after Feng Tan and Gu Nanqiao, package it well, and make her a sign full of spring.
And Chu Youyou's best play is Farewell My Concubine.
At the beginning, it was Chu Youyou who attracted Su Yiyang with the singing segment of Yu Ji of Farewell My Concubine, which won the opportunity to invest in the Spring Garden, and now, of course, this play has become the first big drama in which she takes the lead.
"Overall, it's okay, but there are some changes, and Chu Youyou may not be able to control it well. Hearing Gu Nanqiao's question, Feng Tan slightly hooked the corners of his lips and replied unhurriedly, "Uncle Fan's Chu Overlord aura is too strong, and it will invisibly steal the limelight from Danjiao, which will have no impact on the overall quality of the performance, but the current rehearsal of this play is not to praise Youyou, the most important thing is to find a way to make her sing more brilliantly." ”
Feng Tan's words obviously hit the point, Gu Nanqiao has been following the rehearsal, and always feels that something is missing, but when it comes to how to revise it, there is no good idea for a while.
Every play has bright spots, if there are too many highlights and too miscellaneous, it will look dazzling, if the highlights are too thin, it will inevitably make people feel dull and not eye-catching enough, and the balance is difficult to grasp, especially how to highlight Chu Youyou while not affecting the quality of Fan Lingchu's performance, it is even more exhausting.
"Then what do you think you want to change" Gu Nanqiao thought about Feng Tan's words and asked.
"The burden on Chu Youyou's body has to be added, but Uncle Fan's part also has to be changed, if it can reach Uncle Fan's burden, while showing off his skills, it can also promote Chu Youyou's performance to be the icing on the cake, and this play will be done. Feng Tan had obviously thought about these issues carefully earlier, and as soon as Gu Nanqiao opened his mouth, he immediately responded, "I thought of a few changes, but I don't understand a few words, I'll change the score for you in the next few days." ”
Hearing this, Su Yiyang was directly happy, and casually teased, "What's the matter, our boss Feng suddenly became such a model worker, will he take the initiative to increase the workload, is this the right thing, or the right person?"
Feng Tan raised his eyebrows, mockingly curled the corners of his lips, and generously admitted it.
"What's the matter, Fan Lao is good to me, and he doesn't allow me to go back"
Seeing that Su Yiyang and Feng Tan were in and out of contacts, Gu Nanqiao stood aside and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
After half a year of running-in, although Feng Tan still put on the cold face that the world owes him millions everywhere he goes, he unexpectedly gets along well with everyone in the troupe, and even has a lot more smiles on his face than at the beginning.
With the gradual improvement of the entire troupe, in addition to the small courtyard that was originally used for performances, Su Yiyang invested in a slightly larger formal small theater in the urban area, officially distinguishing the youth version from the traditional version of the performance.
The original site of the Spring Garden is used to stage those classic rehearsal repertoire that require relatively simple stage scenery and effects, and are more artistic, mainly supported by several old artists, and aimed at audiences who like traditional Peking Opera. The new theater is used to develop the reform of Peking Opera, and will perform those more experimental repertoire, and the performance method is more inclined to the taste of young people, which has also received a good response.
Since the weekend performances in the spring garden are fixed, these full-time actors and employees are also working on the clock-in system, and the personnel management is very formal.
Everyone is in the same performance group, and it is inevitable that they have to deal with each other.
Every day when they go to and from work together, rehearse and hold meetings, they will more or less get acquainted, not to mention that Feng Tan is still the pillar of the youth version and the traditional version, and he cooperates quite closely with those teachers and predecessors.
At first, everyone thought that Feng Tan was arrogant and unapproachable, and he was full of stories from his hair to his toenails. Later, with more and more contacts, the big guy found that Feng Tan was just cold-hearted, but he was a polite and courteous person in his bones, and his actions would not cause people too much discomfort.
What's more, when a person's arrogance is supported by enough talent, then the arrogance and arrogance he shows are completely within an acceptable range. This is the same as how a beautiful woman does it, some people will choose to forgive infinitely, as long as the degree of doing it does not exceed the appearance, this is the invincible gold medal of avoiding death.
And Feng Tan's arrogance obviously did not surpass his talent, and even his contribution to the Spring Garden and the fan influence he brought far exceeded that of others in the troupe, which is of course convincing in the long run.
What's more, whether it is the daily rehearsals or the meetings and discussions when developing new plays, Feng Tan is quite rigorous and serious, with such a sincere intention in it, the cold personality becomes a problem that can be directly ignored, and the big guys are not unreasonable people, of course, they have a lot of tolerance for this cold and awkward genius pillar.
When Feng Tan first arrived in the Spring Garden, Gu Nanqiao was worried that he would not get along well with everyone, and as the only person in the know, she knew the purpose of Feng Tan's visit to the Spring Garden, and she also knew the hidden burdens, of course, she didn't expect him to be able to clock in and earn wages as happily as an ordinary employee.
In a word, Feng Tan can coexist peacefully with the big guys of the troupe, and she will not cause any too tricky forks, she is already quite worry-free, Amitabha.
But obviously, everything obviously exceeded Gu Nanqiao's highest expectations.
Feng Tan not only won the approval of those seniors, but also unexpectedly became very close to Fan Lingchu.
Fan Lingchu was originally a very talented senior, after learning about a small part of Feng Tan's family affairs, he really felt sorry for this child's family when he was a child, watching him go out alone, his parents were not around, and he didn't even have a few words of thoughtfulness when he was upset, Fan Lingchu couldn't help but feel a lot.
And maybe it's because of empathy, or maybe it's because some kind of missing emotion can't be alleviated, so it can only be projected onto other people or things, Fan Lingchu looked at the frost and snow between Feng Tan's eyebrows, and actually thought of his daughter in his heart, and he didn't know if she was doing well, wandering alone, if she could take good care of herself.
Also, when will Fan Yishan be willing to turn back.
It has been almost a year since Fan Yishan left home.
In the process, Fan Lingchu didn't think about going to Fan Yishan, especially when his daughter left the Peking Opera Troupe, Fan Lao, the father, also secretly inquired about her residence, he knew that Fan Yishan was very angry, and no matter how hard he suffered, he was unwilling to bow down to his family, and stuffed a lot of money into the landlord at the time behind his back, so that he could lower the rent for his daughter.
This kind of overt and covert help is very subtle, presumably in the end, Fan Yishan doesn't know.
Fan Lingchu had imagined more than once that when his daughter's anger was gone, and the difficulties of the spring garden had passed, he would definitely find an opportunity to talk openly and honestly, and say those words of apology to his face. At that time, Fan Lao thought in his heart, after all, it was his own flesh and blood, what could not be said, and what hurdles could not be passed, who knew that after waiting and waiting, he actually waited until he could not turn back.
Hearing Su Yiyang say that Fan Yishan went to Liyuan Hall, Fan Lingchu was almost so angry that he went directly to invite people back, but what position should he take, so those who hated iron could only swallow it alive, and turned into a helpless sigh.
After a long time, Fan Lingchu accepted Fan Yishan's decision, her social methods were all changed, and when she rehearsed the repertoire for Liyuan Hall and competed with the Spring Garden, she left no room at all, as if she really had nothing to do with the Fan family, only hatred that went deep into the bone marrow.
I never thought that one day, I would have to go back.
