Text Chapter 1171 Graduation Drama

Beiying, the auditorium, Song Zheng The students in their class are rehearsing the graduation drama, although the semester is only four months, from the beginning of enrollment to now about to graduate, it is a bit of a grass stage team, but the flow of the show is like this, I finally came to Beiying once, and when it was about to end, I came to a graduation drama, which can be regarded as a complete end.

Song Zheng had something to do with the company today, he came late, and as soon as he entered the auditorium, he saw that the rehearsal on the stage was lively.

The drama that the students are rehearsing is called "Soul Refusal to Burial", when Song Zheng and Liu Ye were experiencing life in the ravine in Shuzhong, they had heard Liu Ye say that when they graduated from Chinese opera, the graduation drama was this "Soul Refusal to Burial".

So when several of their teachers discussed the graduation play, as soon as Tang Wei mentioned this play, Song Zheng felt very familiar and immediately agreed.

But after reading the script, Song Zheng found out that Liu Ye was talking about a very tall play at the beginning, how could he still babble, and watched it several times in a row, he, the winner of the Golden Globe Award and the Oscar for Best Screenplay, didn't understand what this was going to say.

Song Zheng can only admit that drama is really far away from him, and he can't appreciate this kind of performance at all, and the actors on the stage seem to have to blush, and their necks are thick and shouting crazy, making their faces hideous, and they don't have time to speak well.

On the stage, Tong Jieshi was using a very unfamiliar deep tone at the moment, and said to Chen Duling: "Beth, I can't forget the small river in my hometown, whenever we wake up after dinner or in the morning, we open the window and see the layers of mist rising from the river. I can't forget the scent I smelled when the sun turned the grass yellow in the summer, and I walked with you~~~~."

As he spoke, he was stuck, and he was embarrassed to face Zhang Hanyu, who was staring at them in the audience, and said, "Teacher, this paragraph is too long, I forget it." ”

Zhang Hanyu didn't speak, but Chen Duling, who was playing opposite him, comforted: "It's okay, let's do it again." ”

No one shouted to start, and Tong Jieshi recited a large part of the line again: "Beth, do you remember? At that time, we were dancing on the grass under the white clouds, and you said to me at that time!"

This time, Tong Jieshi went down completely, full of emotion, and at the end, the word "say to me", his voice suddenly rose, and people couldn't help but get goosebumps when they heard it.

Chen Duling followed Tong Jieshi's last note, more emotional than him, and said: "Yes, John, I remember, I stood on the haystack and shouted: John!"

The line skills of these two are the best in the class, and the performance is full of emotion.

It's just that Song Zheng still couldn't help but shudder when he looked at it, Qiong Yao's lines, he was already very tired, and as a result, he was more Qiong Yao than TM Qiong Yao.

There are about 20 characters in "Soul Rejection", but considering the number of people in their class, Zhang Hanyu made an adaptation and reduced it to more than a dozen.

Zhang Hanyu is the instructor of this play, the drama is such a high-end stage art, Song Zheng can't play it, and he has a unique self-knowledge, since he can't get along, he simply doesn't follow it, at most he guides the students' performances, and the rest is handed over to Zhang Hanyu to be responsible.

Of course, even if it is to direct the performance, it is mostly a troublemaker.

Song Zheng has never even heard of the original version, let alone the adapted version, when he rehearsed it at the beginning, he felt quite fresh, but the more he watched it, the more boring he became, he really couldn't understand it, but it was not easy to show it, so he could only keep it deep.

The performance on stage continued, and Song Zheng felt as if everyone except him had blended in, no matter how exaggerated and unnatural the performance was, he didn't think it was a funny thing at all.

On the contrary, their faces showed an extremely strong sense of seriousness and hunger, the kind of play, the desire for performance, almost crazy.

This made Song Zheng a little depressed, because in such an atmosphere, he felt that he was so redundant that he couldn't blend in at all.

After lining up for a while, Zhang Hanyu saw that the time was almost up, got up and said, "Okay, let's rest for a while." ”

Tong Jieshi and several other protagonists instantly fell apart, paralyzed on the ground, and were tired and sweating profusely on a cold day.

"Brother, tell me, how about it?" Zhang Jingchu saw Song Zheng arrive just now, rested at this moment, walked over with a smile, sat down beside him, and didn't forget to squeeze a word.

Song Zheng doesn't understand the art of drama, and Zhang Jingchu has known about this for a long time.

"Chengxin is not, I know that I can't understand it!"

Speaking of this, Song Zheng is really depressed, about the performance, he understands everything else, but he doesn't know anything about drama.

"Lao Zhang!what's going on!?" Song Zheng could only go to ask Zhang Hanyu for advice, there were only a few days left before the graduation show, and when the time came, he would invite the teachers and students of Beiying to enjoy it, if it didn't work out by that time, it would be a joke.

"Isn't it good? if they were to be on the crew and act in front of the camera, it would be okay, but when they stand on the stage, it's not like that!"

Zhang Hanyu has always been very strict in accepting this graduation play, because it is too strict, which also leads to a very slow rehearsal progress, and there are many differences with Zhang Jingchu.

In fact, to say that these two people are good-tempered, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no dispute with the world, and when it comes to professional things, once the opinions are not unanimous, no one will give in.

Whenever there is a disagreement between two people, the most uncomfortable person is Song Zheng who is sandwiched in the middle, who made him the head of the class, in order to coordinate the contradictions between the two people, he also had to gnaw on the script.

In fact, when Song Zheng first heard the synopsis of the story, he was very excited, thinking that it was another masterpiece of structuralism with a dialogue of the soul, but when he saw the realistic script, he was stunned.

Because the first thing that jumped into my eye was the scattered format of the play, the six major stories were very boring, and the idea of Owen Shaw, the playwright's contrived thoughts, made Song Zheng even more unhappy.

Why do you say that Owen Shaw is contrived, because the script was written in 1933, it was a peaceful era with only economic depression and no war for many years, Owen Shaw's work is as untrustworthy as a loft in the sky, and there has never been a war in the United States at that time, but there are false lines such as "someone on the street will fall in front of you at any time" in the script, which is even more unbearable.

At the end of the script, the six corpses refuse to be buried, and the scene of parading around can't help but remind Song Zheng of the living dead or Resident Evil.

The only merit of Brother Zheng's script is that it can have enough characters for everyone in the class to act, but adapting it has become inevitable.

When he first proposed to adapt, Song Zheng had no idea where to start, and in the end Zhang Hanyu took over the work, after line correction, the lines of these six soldiers have basically been formed, but Owen Xiao's failure is that he only raised the problem, and it is very superficial, the dangers of war are known to everyone, but he didn't think about how to solve the problem.

The soul refusal to bury is just the soul refusal to bury, if their flesh and body do not lie down from beginning to end, then it has really become a funny zombie movie.

The soul can refuse to be buried, but the body inevitably has to lie down, Zhang Hanyu feels that this should be the true meaning of the soul refusal to be buried, which is the answer that even Owen Xiao himself has not figured out.

The soul refuses to be buried, but the end of life is too late to be saved, so that the ideological depth and humanistic care of the script will be sublimated.

In this regard, Song Zheng is in favor of Zhang Hanyu, in his opinion, the drama of these six soldiers can be played in the future, but at the end, it is necessary to echo the neat and firm footsteps in the front, which makes the staff officers who turn on the lights on the side feel uneasy, but the general points out the truth of the facts: they are all dead.

The stage lit up again with the appearance of six soldiers who had just been killed, some against the wall, some blown over, and some with a gun, which would be a stark contrast to the previous scene.

Lead the audience into their world, the end will brutally tell the audience that the soul refuses to be buried, but the body will inevitably die, just those soldiers with different personalities, joys and sorrows, and fresh soldiers, have become the unjust souls of war in the blink of an eye, dead bodies, surreal phenomena and the coldness of realistic scenes, which will make the audience instantly have a new reflection on the war.

Then six girls came up with olive branches in their hands and said in turn the profiles of the men they were interested in, such as Lévi Henry, who died in 1944 at the age of 29.

In the background, another passage sounded from Levi's words before he set out for the expedition, and he was so high-spirited. The image behind it will be a huge black-and-white photograph of Levy, which tells people that the people who died in vain in the war were once so vivid, but the horrors of the war ruined all this.

There is no doubt that the soul refusal to bury is a surreal style of drama, but an important idea in the drama theory is that under the premise that the big pattern is false, the small pattern must be real, so that it will have power, and the soul refusal to bury is impossible to happen in real life, and the big pattern must be fake.

However, this requires the actors to be absolutely real in the small pattern, and only the falsehood of such a large pattern will not cause ambiguity among the audience.

In this problem, it leads to the fact that the style of soul rejection must be realistic, and a large number of dance elements cannot be added to blur the scene, so a war scene at the beginning is very important, it must set the tone for the whole drama, and on the drama stage, the real performance of the war scene is also a severe test for the crew, and the most important thing in this scene is to show how the six soldiers were killed by their own cannons.

Some students said that they wanted to show the cruelty of war, Song Zheng felt that this was a typical nonsense, of course the cruelty of war had to be expressed, but how to show the cruelty of war?

Could it be that six soldiers rolled on the ground a few times and called their mother twice?

This is the way of thinking of children, the most cruel thing is to be killed by their own cannons, as for why they fight, it is a question to be considered later.

According to Zhang Hanyu's thinking, there must be someone who receives an order to bomb their play, so that their unjustly died is a very important beginning, and the first few soldiers must not jump on the field one by one, so that the biggest selling point of the soul refusal to bury is exposed as soon as possible, and the soldiers must get up when they recite the prayer after death, so that there is suspense.

But Zhang Jingchu disagreed with such an adaptation, even if Song Zheng was on Zhang Hanyu's side, she still stubbornly objected, according to her ideas, this play should be restored to the original work to the greatest extent, and it should not be adapted to explain everything so clearly, without giving the audience a little room to think.

One should be innovative, and the due meaning should be clearly displayed, and the other should be kept as it is, allowing the audience to think about the deep meaning hidden in the script.

In this regard, Song Zheng could only try to reconcile, and after changing it several times in a row, Song Zheng worked hard to sleep with Zhang Jingchu behind his back, and the script was passed.

However, the script after it was determined was even more nondescript in Song Zheng's opinion, and there was a feeling that I wanted to say it but I didn't like it.

Song Zheng is a perfectionist, if he follows his style of doing things, such a script will definitely not work, but this is a product of compromise after all, and Song Zheng is too lazy to pay attention to it, so let's be lazy once.

The students are resting and recuperating for the next rehearsal, while the teachers are analyzing the shortcomings in the performance just now.

"Zhengzi, don't stop talking, you're the head teacher, give me some advice!"

Comments?

What advice can Song Zheng have?

After holding it for a long time, he held back a sentence: "I just have too fast a pace with you, and the people below must feel too busy when they see it." ”

Zhang Hanyu and Zhang Jingchu glanced at each other, turned their heads, and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Song Zheng was still waiting for himself to wake up the two dreamers with a sentence and let them receive a Daigo empowerment, but the people reacted like this.

"I'm ~~~~~~ wrong!"

Zhang Hanyu ignored him, leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes.

Zhang Jingchu couldn't stand it anymore, and whispered: "Brother, can we not be ashamed?"

I've said I don't know how to play, and you still have to make me say it.

After resting for a while, the rehearsal continued, and Song Zheng still honestly started the audience, watching the students who had been trained by him for four months dancing on the stage.

When he first took over the show, Song Zheng was very optimistic about these students, but after getting along for four months, his views gradually changed.

People are always emotional animals, starting from his inner thoughts, Song Zheng still hopes that these children can be well.

Ask yourself, Song Zheng definitely taught with his heart, and these students did show a certain talent and potential in the learning process.

Although not all of them can become talents, at least, the best ones among the remaining fourteen students will be able to find a bite to eat in the film and television industry in the future.

"Beth, maybe I've never told you that so I can tell you what's going on in my heart. When I ~~~~~~ when I ~~~~~~~ in the past~~~~~~~ maybe ~~~~~~ Beth now, there are a few things that I can't let go of. Some of the most ordinary things, I can't forget the small river in my hometown, whenever we have dinner or wake up in the morning, open the window and see the layers of mist rising from the river. I can't forget the scent of the summer day when the sun turns the grass yellow, and when you go out for a walk. I can't forget that every time you sow the seeds in the spring, the next day a layer of oily green floats all over the mountains, Beth, you see, it's a layer of oily green. I can't forget the refreshing feeling of drinking a spoonful of cold water from the well that you brought up from the well, and you remember when it was harvest season, when I spent the afternoon in the fields, exhausted, and drank a spoonful of cold water that you brought from the well~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth, do you remember?

"Yes, John, I remember, when I stood on the haystack and shouted: John ~~~~~~~ ~~~~~."

"Hey~~~~~~~~~"

"Where are you ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~"

"I'm ~~~~~~~ here in ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

~~~~~~~~~ haunted ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~

What the hell is this, do normal people talk like that?

Of course, this is drama art, but Song Zheng still can't understand it, especially when he looks at Tong Jieshi's long spitting lines as if he was being picked up by a dog, he felt a burst of stomach acid.

"Lao Zhang, how long can we use this auditorium?"

Zhang Hanyu didn't turn his head: "This afternoon, we will charter the venue!"

it!

In other words, this afternoon, you're going to soak here?

Finally, when it got dark, Zhang Hanyu finally announced the end of the rehearsal, and the students fled one by one as if they were the rest of their lives, and they didn't give Zhang Hanyu a chance to comment.

Song Zheng felt relieved, of course, what should be more fortunate is the program team, the students rehearsed for an afternoon, they recorded here for an afternoon, wasted so long, basically there is not much material to use, fortunately, it is over.

"Mr. Song, how do you arrange it at night?"

He Miao walked over, he couldn't edit for a few minutes after a whole day's work, he was going crazy.

Song Zheng knew what He Miao meant, and he was just thinking about letting them work overtime at night.

"Let's stop here today, everyone is tired, go back and have a good rest, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Song Zheng said so, He Miao had no choice but to nod and agree, who made the family a big boss.

The people in the program team were all ripped off, and Song Zheng, Zhang Hanyu, Zhang Jingchu and Tang Wei were left in the auditorium of Nuoda, and when it was time for dinner, Song Zheng beckoned everyone to eat.

Out of the gate of Beiying, I found a small restaurant in a place where I didn't want to, found a private room, ordered good food, and served it after a while.

"Lao Zhang, when will we finish this play?"

Now there are only a few days left before the original scheduled performance time, and the most important thing is that Song Zheng has already agreed with Zhang Xu that he will fly to Canada next week to start the final preparations before the filming of "The Revenant" begins.
