095 Xu Xian's version of "The Legend of the White Snake"

"Since no one calls anymore to find a relationship and go through the back door to play big names, let's start the audition. ”

Lin Xiaosheng turned the gel pen in his hand, turned around and shouted outside, and soon a well-dressed young girl ran in quickly, opened the screen on the wall, and put a scene on it.

At the same time, she turned on the stereo and began to play a new accompaniment prepared in advance on a loop.

"The score on the screen and the small accompaniment you hear now are the excerpts from the new play that our company invited Boss Kong to sing the big axis, you have 20 minutes to recite the lyrics, figure out the role, and the accompaniment, and after 20 minutes, the audition officially begins. ”

After Lin Xiaosheng said this, he turned around and left directly, leaving only a few male dans looking at each other in the rehearsal hall.

"It's only 20 minutes to memorize the lyrics, figure out the characters, and have to play with the accompaniment, which is too tight. ”

As soon as Lin Xiaosheng left, someone in the rehearsal hall couldn't help but whisper.

Cheng Xiaolou didn't care about the others, and walked to the corner alone without saying a word, while watching the drama on the screen and memorizing it silently, while listening to the accompaniment to find a feeling.

Sydney, who also had long eyebrows and clear eyes, was not tall, and was wearing a white shirt, glanced at Cheng Xiaolou, who had already begun to play silently, and quickly gathered his attention and focused on the score and accompaniment on the screen.

The others are not stupid, complaining is complaining, but they also know that time is short, and they can't afford to waste a minute.

The score and accompaniment were given, and it was self-evident what the audition was going to be for a while.

Cheng Xiaolou, who listened to the accompaniment and was silent twice, felt that this play had a sense of déjà vu the more he listened, and he always felt that the lyrics and style of this play seemed to have been seen somewhere.

"Snake girl, male yellow, scholar ......"

"No wonder I always feel so familiar, isn't this another version of "The Legend of the White Snake"?!"

Cheng Xiaolou frowned slightly and thought carefully for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, and after summarizing the three key words through this play, he suddenly thought of the classic "The Legend of the White Snake" on the earth in his previous life.

Although he hasn't seen the score of the whole play yet, the content of this excerpt is so similar to the climax of "The Legend of the White Snake" "Broken Bridge".

The only difference is that the author of the play in front of him has written a character similar to Xu Xian in the play as the protagonist, and at the same time, this play is slightly inferior to "The Legend of the White Snake" in terms of plot setting, paragraph structure, artistry and literature of the lyrics, and the treatment of accompaniment.

And in Cheng Xiaolou's view, love stories like this that happen between people and demons, or people and ghosts, often take demons or ghosts as the protagonists, and the story will be more exciting and twisty.

For example, works such as "The Legend of the White Snake" and "Strange Tales from Liaozhai" on the earth in the previous life all portrayed female ghosts and spirits as the protagonists.

"Sure enough, you can't underestimate the people of the world, I didn't expect that someone in this world could write Xu Xian's version of "The Legend of the White Snake", no wonder the sixth brother and his company were willing to spend 6 million to buy the copyright of this play. ”

Cheng Xiaolou's mind was in a hurry, and a bold idea suddenly came to him.

If this Xu Xian version of "The Legend of the White Snake" is rehearsed to face the market, if he wants to bring "The Legend of the White Snake", one of the four well-known folk loves on the earth in his previous life, he is likely to be given a notoriety of plagiarism.

But if the classic "The Legend of the White Snake" pearl is dusted because of this play, Cheng Xiaolou is unwilling.

Moreover, this Xu Xian's version of "The Legend of the White Snake" is much inferior to the original version in his mind, and the most important thing is that the author wrote this play as a small drama, which in Cheng Xiaolou's opinion has largely cut off the possibility of it becoming a classic.

"No, we must find a way to adapt this play into the real "The Legend of the White Snake"!"

The more Cheng Xiaolou thought about it, the more he felt that he couldn't control the throbbing in his heart, "The Legend of the White Snake" was a classic opera that he had decided to bring to this world a long time ago, and he really couldn't do it if he gave it up like this.

For the art of Peking Opera itself, in order to pass on such a good play in this world, if it is a last resort, even if he gives up the copyright of "The Legend of the White Snake", he thinks it is worth it.

Twenty minutes passed in the silent play, and many people were still immersed in memorizing the words and whispering along with the accompaniment, Lin Xiaosheng had already walked in again with the folder in his hand.

After casually turning off the display screen and accompaniment on the wall, he raised his eyes and glanced at Cheng Xiaolou and the others, and asked lightly, "Who came first?"

Cheng Xiaolou's mind is now full of how to deal with the Xu Xian version of "The Legend of the White Snake" in front of him and the matter between the hand-me-down classics in his mind, and he obviously doesn't have the heart to take care of the audition at this time.

The other people, you look at me, I look at you, and my heart is a little bottomless.

Twenty minutes is too short, and even Sydney, who has rich stage experience and is well-known in the Longcheng pear orchard world, has not yet eaten this scene, but barely memorizes the lyrics, which is worthy of accompaniment.

As for the understanding and speculation of the role of the snake girl in the play, it is obviously still far away.

"I'll do it first. ”

After a slight hesitation, it was Sydney who finally stood up and said.

"Okay, then Boss Xue, you come first. ”

Lin Xiaosheng agreed with a smile on his face, and when the other party nodded to indicate that it was okay to start, he turned on the stereo again and played the accompaniment again.

With the gongs and drums, Sydney entered the role as quickly as possible, and began to sing a little stiffly with the accompaniment.

Sydney raised her voice and pulled Cheng Xiaolou's thoughts back at once.

His singing voice is clear and ethereal, although his voice is not as clean as Cheng Xiaolou, but at first glance, he will really think that this is a woman's voice.

I have to say that Sydney can break into today's fame in Longcheng, the holy capital of Peking Opera, and she does have some real skills. In addition to his clear and ethereal singing, his eyebrows, eyes, figure and gestures have captured the essence of Danjiaoer, even if he only has twenty minutes to silence this new play, he still completely interprets the whole play.

Although the handling of the characters' emotions and some details is a little stiff and insufficient, the degree of completion has generally reached above the horizontal line.

And everyone knows that the first person to stand up and sing first in this situation suffers the most, with this buffer time, the people behind will have more time to compare, speculate, analyze, and memorize, and the more they get to the interview, the more advantageous they will be.

From this point, you can also see Sydney's self-confidence, as well as the shining point of his character.
