Looking at Xi Jiu's serious expression, Ye Chen also has his own little Jiujiu in his heart, with Xi Jiu's status in the field of classical drama, being able to deign to perform his own drama is definitely beneficial and harmless to Ye Chen!

Thinking of this, Ye Chen readily agreed, "Okay, since the old man is willing to act, it is also the honor of the kid!"

Seeing Ye Chen agree, Xi Jiu smiled heartily.

Ye Chen and the others were chatting happily, but for someone, their hearts were not at all at the moment.

As a top student who graduated from the Imperial Drama Academy, Zhou Xu still has a certain level of drama appreciation, so Zhou Xu, who was standing behind Ye Chen, had a general judgment on the script of the entire "Zhao's Orphan" after Ye Chen finished writing.

From Zhou Xu's point of view, even if you don't want to admit it, you have to admit that "Zhao's Orphan" is undoubtedly the birth of another classic comedy!

In other words, you lost!

Especially after seeing that the teacher he had always respected and admired couldn't withstand the temptation of "Zhao's Orphan" and asked Ye Chen for a role, Zhou Xu's heart was full of bitterness!

At this time, Zhou Xu felt that his previous self was like a joker, performing a farce on stage by himself

Glancing at Anna who was smiling like a flower again, Zhou Xu walked out of the conference room in a daze

Everyone in the conference room didn't pay attention, or they didn't say anything when they noticed, after all, Zhou Xu was also half of his own person in the troupe, and he was a student of the ninth drama, and everyone didn't want Zhou Xu to be too embarrassed.

Ye Chen also noticed Zhou Xu's movements, but at this time, Ye Chen didn't have much to say, he couldn't agree to Xi Jiu's request with his front foot, and humiliated Zhou Xu in front of Xi Jiu with his back foot, so that Xi Jiu couldn't get off the stage, right?

Looking at the old drama nine, Ye Chen was really a little unbearable!

However, Ye Chen was shocked when he thought of a certain possibility!

Could it be?

Xi Jiu asked himself for a role in "Zhao's Orphan" for this, right?

The more Ye Chen thinks about it, the more likely it is! There may also be a reason why Xi Jiu was attracted by the script of "Zhao's Orphan", but this factor cannot be ruled out!

Looking at Xi Jiu, who still looked as usual, Ye Chen had to say that Jiang was still old and spicy!

It seems that the whole thing is out of the way, but in just one or two sentences, the worst result is turned into a small thing, but Ye Chen can't say anything!

Fortunately, Ye Chen also received a consolation prize, that is, Xi Jiu promised to play the role of the traitor Tu Anjia!

However, this incident also sounded a wake-up call for Ye Chen!

Although he has a unique system in this world, he can't underestimate the heroes of the world, not to mention anything else, the respected old artist in front of him has made himself suffer a dumb loss.

If it's just a loss, it's nothing, the main thing is that this feeling of being led by the nose like a marionette really makes Ye Chen very unhappy!

After such a small episode, there is no suspense about the development of things.

"Hamlet" was confirmed as a play performed at the royal exchange gathering between the two countries, and Ye Chen remained in the troupe as a playwright.

For the rest of the day, Ye Chen watched the rehearsals of the actors in the troupe all day long, while Ye Chen was responsible for telling the leading actors of the drama about the personality traits of these characters and the psychological activities of certain scenes from time to time.

After watching the rehearsal for more than ten days in a row, Ye Chen changed from being quite interested at the beginning to becoming less interested.

Although the performance level of the actors of the troupe is very high, watching the same scene all day long, a line echoes in your ears over and over again, and everyone will find it boring!

After staying in the imperial capital for more than ten days, the only enjoyment every day was a rich meal cooked by Anna herself.

Just when Ye Chen was secretly complaining, something related to Ye Chen happened in Qingyang City at this time

Qingyang City, "Star Cup" Fairy Tale Creation Competition Jury.

Unlike the official nature of the National Youth Literary Writing Competition, the "Star Cup" fairy tale writing competition was jointly organized by dozens of publishing houses in the southern part of the empire.

And because it is a fairy tale writing competition, most of the judges of the competition are also some famous fairy tale authors in the empire and some famous writers in the literary world.

However, this time the "Star Cup" fairy tale writing competition is a little different from the usual, this time the jury invited a very important judge - Yang Yu!

Who is Yang Yu? The best fairy tale writer of the young generation in the empire, the first person to be recognized in the literary world as a fairy tale since Tong Fan, and the second writer since Tong Fan to sell a collection of fairy tales into a bestseller!

With Yang Yu's status in this field, if any fairy tale writer's work can get a comment from Yang Yu, it will at least be a little popular!

Because of this, there are more entries in this "Star Cup" fairy tale creation competition than in previous editions!

"Xiao Xiao, there are many more entries this year than before, and after watching it for so many days, the results are finally coming out today. A middle-aged man with glasses and a sven look stretched out and said to a colleague on the side.

"No, this time because of Brother Yang's participation, there are a lot more entries, for example, a neighbor next to my house just heard me say that the judge this time is Brother Yang, so he let his son participate in this competition. The younger man on the side put down the manuscript in his hand and replied with a smile, and after speaking, he couldn't help but look towards a corner of the room with a hint of adoration in his eyes.

Looking along the line of sight of the young man, there was a man in his thirties sitting in the corner of the room at this time, the man was wearing a shirt on his upper body, a pair of white jeans on his lower body, a pair of narrow eyes were always half-squinted, and his handsome face always had a smiling face, obviously in his thirties, but he did not look old at all, but looked very sunny.

At this moment, the man was looking at the manuscript in his hand with a smile on his face, and every once in a while, he seriously left a good or bad comment on the manuscript in his hand.

Therefore, even though the man had a large pile of manuscripts next to him, he only read a few dozen copies for an entire afternoon.

For ordinary people, if they do something repeatedly for a whole afternoon, they may already feel tired or even impatient, but there is no trace of similar emotions on the man's face.

It seems that for a man, the manuscript in his hand is like a fun toy, and he can't put it down, but he only stops and frowns and thinks about it a little when he leaves comments on the manuscript from time to time.

Although he is a judge, the man is not thinking about what kind of comments to leave, but about how to write comments to make them look interesting!

Yes, it's just fun!

Of course, at the level of men in the creation of fairy tales, most of what is left is also euphemistic criticism.

This person is Yang Yu, the first person in the empire who is now recognized as a fairy tale! )
