There are still two and a half months left before the Spring Festival.

The trade union of Liaoyuan City organizes all units to participate in the annual art show every year. As in previous years, at the end of the year, the trade union organizations of all units took this activity as an important political task. The same is true of Liaoyuan Cement Factory, and now it is preparing to transfer some people who love literature and art and can sing and dance from various units below to prepare the program.

Wang Xuefei of the Political Department, as well as Liu Chunjiang, because neither of them has arranged a position at present, and to put it mildly, they are all idlers. Moreover, both of them are young people, so it is only natural that the two of them are recommended.

In fact, in school, Liu Chunjiang is an activist in literature and art. Therefore, he is also happy to participate in this event.

All the rehearsals took place in the factory club. As soon as I got to work that day, the cast and crew members from various units had already gathered in the club's reading room early to prepare for the meeting.

Liu Chunjiang was pleasantly surprised to find that Xue Kemei from the school also came. She was brought here as a stage artist. So, the two of them sat together, talking while watching the people who came here from time to time.

He noticed that the willow warbler was also in it. However, as a member of the trade union, she was busy coming and going from time to time, sometimes going out to get a kettle, and sometimes handing out songbooks to the people who came here.

When she sent Liu Chunjiang a songbook, she just glanced at him with slanted eyes, and her attitude was not different from others.

However, Liu Chunjiang sensitively found that Liu Yingying's eyes on him were not too special, on the contrary, when she looked at Liu Yingying, there was a special meaning in her eyes.

Liu Chunjiang can't tell what's different here.

Responsible for organizing the rehearsal work is Director Zhao of the club.

This is a man in his early forties with many years of experience in literary rehearsals.

He saw that the people from all walks of life were almost coming, and then he called a meeting to order.

At the beginning, it was nothing more than saying that the current time is very tight and the task is very heavy, and I hope that everyone can consciously abide by the time and treat this matter as an important political task.

Then, he said that he would shoot a big drama this year, which was the opera "The White-Haired Girl".

As soon as Director Zhao finished saying this, there was a burst of discussion among the other people around him. It seems that everyone was surprised by the choice, but it can also be seen that they are also feeling a little happy.

Director Zhao went on to say:

"Our Liaoyuan Cement Factory, there are many talents, there are those who want to sing, those who want to dance, there are all kinds of talents, it is really not good, we can also go outside to invite." So, I don't know if you believe it or not, anyway, I believe that as long as we all work together and work hard, we will definitely be able to win this drama. ”

After speaking, he asked Liu Yingying, who was sitting next to him, to tell everyone about the specific division of labor in this play.

Liu Yingying cleared her throat and began to read out the cast and crew of the play.

Xi'er, she will play it herself.

Liu Yingying, it can be said that she is a pillar of the cement factory, she is good at looking good, and she doesn't have a voice, I have to admit that she is very talented in this area.

Da Chun is starring Wang Xuefei.

There was immediately a burst of discussion from the people below, but when Liu Yingying swept her eyes, those who were talking stopped squeaking.

Finally, when it came to Huang Shiren's candidate, Liu Yingying glanced up at Liu Chunjiang and said:

"Huang Shiren is played by Liu Chunjiang. ”

The people around immediately focused their eyes on Liu Chunjiang's face, and a few girls couldn't help but cover their mouths with their hands and let out a laugh.

From elementary school to university, Liu Chunjiang has always been an active figure in literary and artistic activities in school. Every time the school organizes a program, he is always the protagonist of the stage.

Now, Huang Shiren's actor actually asked him to take the role, Liu Chunjiang didn't have any mental preparation in his heart, he almost suspected that his ears had heard it wrong.

Liu Chunjiang felt the blood all over his body rush to the top of his head, and he clenched his teeth, trying to restrain his emotions. He comforted himself in his heart, no matter what role he played, after all, this was just acting, and he didn't have to take it seriously.

After Liu Yingying said this decision, she seemed to be extremely happy, and her face was full of smiles. She continued:

"Considering that we don't have many people here, some jobs need to make cameos with each other, and the landlord's wife in the play, that is, Huang Mu, is taken by our artist Xue Kemei, fortunately, there are not many scenes in this role, and the difficulty is not great, I believe there should be no problem. ”

When Liu Yingying finished talking about the role of Huang Mu, people's eyes looked at Xue Kemei, this time, people stopped laughing, from the eyes of some people, it can be clearly seen that people feel that it is a little inappropriate to let her play the landlord's wife.

To be honest, in this, if you want to say the best, Xue Kemei is the best, let her play the yellow mother, not to mention the quality of the appearance, just talking about the age, it is not appropriate.

Liu Chunjiang didn't dare to look at her with his eyes, but with the afterglow of his eyes, he felt Xue Kemei lower his head and his chest rising and falling violently.

Finally, Liu Chunjiang couldn't help it, he stood up all of a sudden, and said loudly:

"What does this mean? I don't have any opinion on you asking me to play Huang Shiren, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate to let a young and beautiful girl play a landlord's wife. If you want me to say, you are bullying!"

"Who bullied her? Xue Kemei hasn't said anything yet, what are you anxious about? Besides, Huang Mu's play is just a few lines at best, and we don't have enough manpower here, and the tasks of the artists are not much, so what's wrong with letting her make a cameo? Don't you really let her go to the local housewife? You all give comments, I arrange it like this, is this called bullying her?"

Liu Yingying's mouth is very powerful, and she said so much in one breath.

Most people echoed the words: This is just acting, there is no need to take it seriously. Some people also said: Someone must play this role. Some people also said that let her play, this is to look up to her......

Liu Chunjiang is not good at stubble, he immediately asked Liu Yingying:

"In that case, then why don't you play this yellow mother?"

"You ......" Liu Yingying's face turned red at this time, and she stood up suddenly, speechless. Yes, she has grown so big, and no one has ever dared to talk back to her like this.

Director Zhao saw that the two of them were about to quarrel, so he immediately grabbed Liu Yingying, he pulled his face down, and yelled at Liu Chunjiang:

"What is this called? Who is called to play what is called is all carefully considered; moreover, this is not only a question of acting, but also a question of attitude towards work. Whoever doesn't want to act, can! I'll see if you have the guts to take that step!"

The venue was silent all of a sudden, and the atmosphere suddenly felt a little tense, and people lowered their heads, and no one dared to speak anymore.

Xue Kemei grabbed Liu Chunjiang with his hand.

Just when Director Zhao looked at Liu Chunjiang with a majestic gaze, who knew that Liu Chunjiang threw the songbook in his hand on the table:

"I won't act yet, you can play whoever you like. After saying that, he walked to the gate in a few steps, slammed the door, and went out.

Another few days passed. On this day, when it was almost five o'clock, everyone else in the Political Department went out on business. Only he and Zhang Yongqiang are in the political department.

Zhang Yongqiang walked over, called Liu Chunjiang to his desk, and said that he wanted to talk to him about something.

Liu Chunjiang had a faint feeling of indescribability in his heart. His heart was churning, and he walked to the opposite side of Zhang Yongqiang. Zhang Yongqiang waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, then lit a cigarette, took a hard puff, squinted his eyes and looked out the window, but did not speak, probably thinking about how to speak.

A cloud of smoke spit out of Zhang Yongqiang's mouth, then gradually rose and slowly spread around, and the room was filled with the smell of cigarettes.

Liu Chunjiang sat there, waiting for the news to come.

Zhang Yongqiang took a few more puffs of cigarette and flicked the cigarette ash, and then said to Liu Chunjiang:

"Xiao Liu, you have come to us, and it has been a while since you counted it. You are a good child, ah, whether it is character or personal business ability, your performance is still good in all aspects. Everyone also thinks highly of you, and you are a very good talent. Speaking of this, Zhang Yongqiang coughed dryly.

Liu Chunjiang knows that these are polite words, that is, opening remarks, and the real theme is still to come.

Zhang Yongqiang looked at him again, then paused, took two puffs of cigarette hard, and heard the cigarette burning in the slightest, the cigarette butt turned red and dark, dark and red.

"You're a craftman, aren't you?"

Zhang Yongqiang is starting to get into the topic. "It's a pity that you're too condescending to be here. We are doing some miscellaneous transactional work here, and there is no skill, so you should go to a place where you can give full play to your expertise and exercise well. When the workout comes out, at that point, it will be different. Zhang Yongqiang seems to be starting to paint a picture of the future for him.

Liu Chunjiang's face was hot, and he knew what the director meant by this.

"Director, I see. If you have anything to say, just say it. Liu Chunjiang felt that his voice was a little different from his own.

"You see, in the end, it's still smart, and you can understand it when you hear it. The muscles on Zhang Yongqiang's two faces piled up, and he smiled exaggeratedly.

"Tell me, where are you going to arrange for me?" Liu Chunjiang thought to himself, he was originally a craftsman, and he really couldn't play much role in the agency. Rather than this, it is better to take the initiative to say it yourself.

"I also bumped into the above, thought about it twice, contacted your actual situation, and decided to let you go to the central laboratory. That's a good place! You learn craft, and you don't need to say that you know, that's the eyes of our cement factory. Zhang Yongqiang seemed to be very sincere.
