Chapter 230: One Night in New York

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet, two of Shakespeare's most famous masterpieces, are not significantly superior or inferior in terms of the play itself, one is an earth-shattering and touching expression of love, expressing the love of freedom in the world, and the other is a shocking and thought-provoking description of human ethics, exposing social injustice and darkness, and showing a call for rational thinking.

Whether it is to praise free love or to praise the beauty of reason, it is the full release of the writer's humanist feelings, and from this point of view, the two scripts have their own merits and are good at it.

Literary and artistic works are like this, as long as they can present their own ideas completely and finely, and at the same time can ensure that the story is interesting and reasonable, and can touch the feelings of readers or audiences, then the work itself has reached perfection and can be called unique.

Of course, these refer to the fact that there are no major flaws in the presentation of the work, and there are no obvious flaws in the technique, such as tonight's drama, in addition to the script, there are also stage sets, prop arrangements, actors' costumes, and the most important section, the cast.

The same script and story, presented by different teams, have naturally different effects, similar to the principle of film and television drama remakes, and what the judges and the audience have to do is to find out these gaps.

The Chinese version of "Romeo and Juliet" retains more than ninety percent of the content of the book handed in by Liu Jingting, and only some lines and plots have been fine-tuned, so in the column of reporting the original screenwriter, Liu Jingting's name still has to be written in the first place. This is also a link that Director Kang has specially explained.

Despite this, when rehearsing the play, the above consciously avoided the previous version of Vientiane. It can be said that it is the pride of the artist and the unique aesthetic pursuit, and it can also be said to be the re-creation of literature and art, in short, when the host invited Liu Jingting to the stage, the face of a certain screenwriter sitting in the audience became not particularly good-looking, in his opinion, the reason why the drama "Romeo and Juliet" won the second place. It has something to do with several changes in him, and if you are invited to the stage, you should also have this qualification.

But it's a pity. At this moment, there is only one hero in this theater, and insiders are already discussing the similarities and commonalities of the two dramas, and the result of the discussion is that they are even more shocked.

A work with real connotation is inherently incredible, the more you discuss it. The more I researched, the more amazing I felt. This is true of Shakespeare, this is true of Hongxue, and the same is true of Jinxue.

"Before Mr. Liu, please allow me to interview again, Mr. Liu, have you read the book "The Little Prince"?"

This question made the audience a little confused, as a world-class best-selling fairy tale, most of the audience at the scene had read or heard of this story. But why did the moderator ask this question all of a sudden?

Although many colleges and universities and even professional drama teams have adapted this story, there is no outstanding connection between them. Oh, and it's not unconnected, the protagonists of both stories are princes, and they both seem to have some problems.

Does the host want to say that "Hamlet" has any connection with "The Little Prince", this should not be a live interview, but a deliberate difficulty, right?

The audience, who knew a little about the inside story, was suspicious, but heard Liu Jingting reply: "Yes, have you seen it?"

"Of course I have seen it, even if I haven't had time to watch it before, I know that I may have to interview Mr. Liu today, and I will make up for it temporarily, after all, if I want to interview the author of "The Little Prince", how can I not make some preparations?"

The audience was in an uproar again.

The author of "The Little Prince"? Did you hear it right, that Liu Jingting is still the author of "The Little Prince"?

The scene fell into a hustle and bustle, and the audience asked each other about what the host had just said to make sure that they didn't hear it wrong, and as a result, they heard the host announce to all the audience in a particularly formal manner: "Everyone heard it right, Mr. Liu Jingting, who won the championship of this drama competition, is also the author of "The Little Prince", I wish you all a happy day, and now I will give the time to this Chinese genius, I don't want to continue to share the stage with him, because I am afraid that I can't help but treat him as the dedication of "Suspect X" The identity of the author is also told to you. ”

The host pretended to finish speaking and stepped off the stage, and some of the audience in the audience no longer knew what expression to use to face this message.

"The Devotion of Suspect X"?

The novel that writes lies and love to the point of despair and extreme, is actually the big boy who laughed a little shy on the stage?

"Good evening New York, good evening everyone...... I'm Liu Jingting from China. ”

Applause.

"I can prove that what the moderator just said is true. ”

Laughter.

"However, I have to add sincerely, to be honest with this world, and to be honest with other worlds. ”

Of course, it is impossible for everyone to know the specific meaning of this sentence, so everyone thinks that this sentence is very powerful, and try to show that they understand it and give applause and encouragement.

"A qiē story that everyone likes, originally stored zài, suddenly appeared because some people were lucky, and I felt that my luck was very good. ”

Everyone applauded, thinking that the Chinese were indeed generally modest.

"Hamlet is a flower watered by the great friendship between China and Britain, and together with Romeo and Juliet, it belongs to the great Sino-European Year of Culture, and they are a concrete symbol of the era of peace!"

This passage was naturally entrusted by the two teachers, and it was originally an impassioned speech of more than 300 words, but Liu Jingting said that he really lacked that kind of acting talent, so he had no choice but to summarize such a sentence by himself, but I didn't expect everyone to hear this sentence, and the reaction was extremely strong, and there were even cheers.

This effect finally relieved the two teachers sitting in the audience, and then heard the "still a very reliable teenager after all" turned around and said: "In the end, I just stood here and apologized to Aunt Hu and Hu Xiaomi, I hope Xiaomi you will open your phone as soon as possible to check the specific content of my apology." ”

The screams are at their peak at this point, if in the country. Such a sentence may be judged by some defenders as joking at the stage, being unconventional, and losing respect for the stage and the audience, etc., but in the United States, where the people are open and the people's personalities are relatively outgoing. Such a move will only win more cheers and screams for yourself.

This is authentic American humor, like the heroes of many good Hollywood blockbusters, after saving the earth or the universe, when faced with media interviews, usually do not say slogans such as "I do everything for everyone's happiness, I just want you to be good", but will say very lightly, "I miss my wife's kiss and pumpkin pie", "I can finally take my son to Sea Paradise with peace of mind", "I want to go back to sleep first" and so on.

This kind of bridge can always quickly capture the audience's heartfelt laughter. And tried and tested.

The omnipotent hero occasionally shows the side of ordinary people, what a down-to-earth and affectionate thing at that time.

Hu Xiaomi, who was sitting in the audience, finally swept away the gloom on his face. There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyebrows and eyes gradually expanded, and he could see that Wang Wenjun next to him was like a knife, and Mother Hu was still looking at Liu Jingting on the stage with an expressionless face. Hear him say this apology. A confused expression flashed across his face, and the combination of the two made it a little complicated.

……

After the curtain of the drama contest ended, five or six countries waited like falcons for the opportunity to round up Liu Jingting, and as a result, Liu Jingting successfully slipped away under the cover of British friends.

"Ryu is going to go to his girlfriend to apologize. Thank you for your understanding, in addition. I also know a lot about this drama, you can ask me any questions. Austin stepped forward.

"No more in power for three years. ”

After escaping, Liu Jingting immediately sent a text message to Mihu.

"What, you think it's embarrassing to apologize to me?"

Mi Hu finally "turned on the phone".

"Wow, you're finally there! I'm sure I don't feel ashamed to apologize, I remember telling you before, I feel like I've been stripped naked standing in front of everyone, you know me, I'm just like a certain beast, I just want to be a beautiful man quietly. ”

Hu Mi replied with a spit expression.

"Where?"

"I don't sue you. ”

"I'll be waiting for you at the Times Tower. ”

"I advise you to disperse early, I won't go. ”

Half an hour later, Hu Xiaomi, wearing a red towel and a red hat, appeared in front of the Times Building, but she didn't see any trace of Liu Jingting at all, and was looking around, when suddenly her mobile phone rang.

"Hey, are you here?" Liu Jingting asked as if he was in a hurry.

"Where are you?" asked Hu Mi impatiently.

"At the entrance of the building, what about you, are you here?"

"I didn't see you, you road idiot and idiot, have you figured out your position. ”

"I've figured it out, I'm at the door, there's a fairy wearing a red hat, you can find it. ”

Hu Xiaomi smiled bitterly, then put down the phone, and then someone patted him on the shoulder, and turned his head to see the hateful face that he couldn't get rid of.

"Long time no see. ”

Liu Jingting said with a smile, his back densely covered with brilliant neon tubes and advertising boards.

Hu Xiaomi was speechless, staring blankly at the boy in front of him, and he couldn't say a word of countless reprimands.

"Don't you want to hug it?"

Liu Jingting said and did as he spoke, and hugged Hu Xiaomi.

"I just want everyone to know that this Times Square is contracted by you...... Later, when you are old, you are free to dance here with everyone. ”

Hu Xiaomi finally laughed, let Liu Jingting hold her, and said seriously: "I will really stay in the United States in the future." ”

Liu Jingting stepped back, held Hu Xiaomi's shoulder, and asked, "You want to stay in the United States?"

"Yes, after graduating from university, I will find a job here and stay here forever. ”

"That'...... This, isn't, why?"

"I'm used to it, and I'm free, I don't have to worry about my parents, and I don't have to worry about their agreements. ”

Liu Jingting was speechless.

"Wang Wenjun has looked for you, right?"

"Huh?"

"You know, you didn't go to the appointment, it has something to do with him?"

"That's not true, I've been busy with magazines lately, and I'm feeling a little tired, and I've set an alarm clock, but I'm still sleeping so deeply, like the experience of a ghost, I want to wake up but I can't wake up. ”

Hu Xiaomi's eyes began to be worried, and said: "You have to remember to exercise, sit in front of the computer every day, and there will be various problems after not exercising regularly." ”

"Well, I know. ”

"Don't just talk about it, you can't waste much time by trotting for 40 minutes a day, right?"

"We have fitness facilities in our apartment, and I often use a treadmill, by the way, did you tell your parents about your idea of staying in the United States?"

"No, let's talk about it then, they should be willing. ”

"American ......," Liu Jingting muttered to himself, "I haven't thought about it that way." ”

After a short silence, Hu Xiaomi took the initiative to take Liu Jingting's hand and said, "Accompany me for a walk, do you remember what I told you when I came to study?" ”

"Walking around Times Square and strolling down the streets of Broadway?"

"Well, now I want to add one more thing. ”

"What?"

Hu Mi didn't answer, because her mouth couldn't speak now.

She answered with practical actions.

Under the night sky of the world's busiest street, in the shroud of red lights, kissing, kissing for a long time.

After a long time, Hu Xiaomi, who was flushed, was almost close to Liu Jingting, breathing quickly and his heartbeat was also fast, and asked, "Do you want to add one more thing?"

"Yes, especially if you want. ”

……

Times Square is an area that is required by law to be hung by property owners, so it's a veritable city that never sleeps.

The city that never sleeps means that there are many people who don't go to sleep, and those who don't sleep at night are either sad or happy.

It was the same night in New York. (To be continued......)
