Chapter 197: The decision to apply for Mandarin
"At least, I'll make up a number too?" the countess, played by Yuan Yu, who was dressed in full costume, knelt down.
The earl dressed as Zhou Bai looked at Suzanne played by Hu Yu and the countess played by Yuan Yan, and said in shock and despair: "Ah! What do I see!"
Bazile, played by Cao Jun, laughed: "Uh! oh my God! It's Madame!"
Zhou Bai walked up and wanted to help Yuan Yu, who was kneeling, and he pleaded: "What! It turned out to be you, Countess, just now, and I only ask you to be magnanimous and forgive ......."
Yuan Yang smiled and said, "If you stand in my position, you will say no, no." As for me, I promise you today for the third time without conditions. He then stood up.
Hu Yu said loudly: "I also promise!"
Marcelyn, the maid played by Zeng Li, said: "I also promise!"
Figaro, played by Wu Guohua, shouted loudly: "I also promise!"
……
The graduation drama "The Marriage of Figaro" was staged one after another, in which Zhou Bai played the biggest villain, Count Alma Viva, and was also one of the male protagonists, while Yuan Yu played the countess, Hu Yu played Susanna, and Wu Guohua played the role of Figaro as he wished.
Cao Jun played the role of Bazile, Dang Hao was arranged to play the role of an alcoholic, Zeng Li asked for the role of Marceline, Tian Cheng asked Teacher Chang for the role of Xue Luban, Niu Qingfeng chose the role of Antonio, and Liu Ye was two-handed, and Zhang Ziyi chose a Fang Shete to play.
There are many characters in "The Marriage of Figaro", and it really takes almost three hours to finish the original version, and even if some changes are made to the lines, it will take more than two hours to complete a scene, which requires a lot of energy.
If you don't talk about drama training people, more than two hours of drama, there are so many lines, then there is no need to say more, and you can't make mistakes in the performance, which will not only test the actor's line ability, but also test the actor's performance ability, and it is a big test of the actor's physical strength.
However, none of Zhou Bai's classmates in the 96-level acting undergraduate class are fuel-efficient lamps, and after four years of study, all of them have unique skills, even if Wu Guohua, who is not visible in the class, can still play the role of Figaro vividly.
Due to Zhou Bai's persuasion, Wu Guohua finally chose to continue to challenge the role of Figaro, and slowly found a feeling in the rehearsal.
Because it is a graduation drama, in addition to being open to Chinese opera students, it is also open to all walks of life, with many performances, more than a dozen performances, full of praise, and many insiders and reporters have come, after all, this is a drama performed by Zhou Bai and Zhang Ziyi.
In the experimental theater, in the theater of more than 1,000 people, all the actors did not use microphones, all relied on human voices, and if the lines were not clear or loud enough, the audience at the side of the theater could not hear the lines spoken by the actors at all.
It was also his class that dared to do this, mainly because everyone in the class had a solid foundation, and the brothers and sisters in their previous sessions had already started to use microphones to perform, and when Zhou Bai did not use microphones to perform, the insiders who came to watch the performance were admired.
Otherwise, the 96-level acting class is the most outstanding one, and this skill alone is enough for them to beg for food in the drama industry, and Chang Li, as the class teacher who has trained them for four years, has also been amazed by school leaders and colleagues in the academic world.
"Yezi, have you really decided to apply for the Mandarin exam?" After performing a big show, Zhou Bai returned backstage to remove his makeup, and after removing his makeup, he saw Liu Ye who was waiting alone in the aisle, and simply asked about it.
Playing the role of the earl is a small challenge for Zhou Bai, but he quickly adapted, that is, the earl's costume is very annoying, the eighteenth century Western aristocratic costume is called a cumbersome, Zhou Bai also wears a wig, at the end of May This weather, it can really heat people to death, every time after the performance, Zhou Bai has already sweated.
"I want to take the exam, it will be good for me after entering the Mandarin, anyway, it won't affect my play, isn't it just that there are some performance tasks every six months, this is easy to say. Liu Ye had already taken off his makeup, he thought for a while and nodded seriously.
"Brother, why don't you apply for the exam with me, there are many actors in the National Theater, anyway, it doesn't take much energy, it's a big deal that the theater pays a 3-month contract fee, puts on a name, and you are very free to open a company or something in the future." Liu Ye said with a clear look.
"How do you know this? If the theater has a work task, it must first ensure the arrangement of the original unit, and I am afraid that when I start the play, the theater will arrange a few plays, and it will be a pitfall. Zhou Bai said strangely, Liu Ye seemed to be very clear about the doorway here.
"I've asked someone a long time ago, now the task of the theater is not heavy, and it's not like that there is a performance task for you in the past, don't you like dramas, there are big plays staged there every year, all of them are classics, hundreds of actors, and the roles are all robbed. Liu Ye said with a smile.
"Yuan Yuan also asked me to apply for the Mandarin exam, she said that it is easy to get a hukou, and it is a good thing to enter a state-owned unit, in fact, I am afraid of delaying my affairs, I don't care about the hukou or something, it is a big deal to use Yuan Yuan to do it when the time comes. Zhou Bai's eyes flashed, if things are not delayed, it should be a good choice to apply for Mandarin.
"What can delay you, the drama market is very small now, and the dramas staged every year are basically fixed, which has a lot of help for acting, and can get a hukou, and it can also give you a good identity as a state-owned unit, and it will be easier to do things in the future, maybe you can become a national first-class actor." Liu Ye said indifferently.
"It's not easy to get first-class actors, they are all obtained by those old artists, or they are all very popular in the unit and have a very good business to be evaluated, so we young actors don't compete for honor with other old artists. Zhou Bai was speechless for a long time, did he really think this was so easy, and he didn't look at who the first-class actors were.
"Now there is still a period of time before the registration deadline, you still have time to register, the school will help you submit the information and everything, so it is decided, you go with me to apply for the exam, and then you and I and Sister Yuan Yu will be assigned to a unit, and we don't have to separate after graduation." Liu Ye said excitedly.
"That's okay, I'll find Chang Ma later, I'll also apply for the exam and try it, if I can enter the Mandarin, I will hang a relationship in the Mandarin, the three-month contract fee is nothing, I can still afford this money." ”
"Really, that's great, I'm afraid that we will be divided into the north and south of the world all of a sudden, anyway, it's good to stay in the capital, although my house is very close to the house you bought, but it's not as convenient as being in a unit." Liu Ye said happily.
"It's almost time for the last graduation drama, the thesis defense has to wait for a while, and the four years have passed in a hurry, and before we know it, we are going to face separation, and I really can't bear them. Zhou Bai sighed, the graduation season is also the parting season, and the taste in it is not pleasant.
