Chapter 772: Drama
At this time, the idol in the minds of girls is the poet writer, because the poet is the most romantic, so the poet is particularly popular, especially the young and handsome poet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the literary world was very much like a reduced version of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, where a hundred flowers bloomed and a hundred schools of thought contended, and Confucius and Mencius Laozhuang influenced China for thousands of years, which can be said to have a long history. And the new cultural movement of the Republic of China, like "Dream of Red Mansions", quickly reached a peak, and then there was a fault. Later, what reflection literature was, seeking roots, literature reform, literature was just putting gold on one's face, and it was impossible to count.
Just like many deep-seated problems that Li Ruofan saw in later generations, could it be that these all appeared suddenly? At the beginning, thousands of enterprise workers lost their jobs and said that they wanted to give up their small families for everyone, but zombie enterprises were all blood-sucking giants, and the introduction of foreign capital was simply like serving as an ancestor and uncle, and it was simply a matter of preferring foreign thieves to domestic slaves. But those novels that came into being are 12 percent praise!
All works that are below life are lifeless. The reason why Du Fu is great is because he faced the bleak prosperous era, Zhang Yanghao is remembered by future generations because he said the rise and fall of the people's suffering, and Confucius is great because he said that the harsh government is fiercer than the tiger.
Of course, Li Ruofan even had some different ideas, being able to talk to these masters and junjie, wouldn't coming to the Republic of China be the biggest gain?
Lu Xiaoman saw that Li Ruofan seemed to be stunned when he looked at Lin Huiyin, and joked with a smile: "The sister of the Lin family is a famous flower." ”
In fact, Lu Xiaoman's heart is a little semi-sour, and women's psychology is sometimes very strange, for example, she is with Xu Zhimo now, but Xu Zhimo did not pursue Lin Huiyin in the past. Speaking of which, isn't he inferior to Lin Huiyin?
What you can't get is the best, and a woman won't really convince another woman.
Lin Huiyin's face was slightly red, and it was not polite for Li Ruofan to stare at a strange woman like this, but his eyes didn't seem to mean that way. Lin Huiyin has seen too many admiring eyes, but the other half in her mind must be talented and single-minded, and Xu Zhimo is undoubtedly only half of it.
In fact, Lin Huiyin is very much like a current scholar, this year he will go to Philadelphia to study abroad with Mr. Liang Qichao's son, and after four years of long-distance love, he will hold a wedding at the Chinese Consulate General in Ottawa.
Originally, I went to study architecture to study abroad, but the Department of Architecture did not accept female students. Lin Huiyin is also very powerful, transferred to the Department of Fine Arts, and electively studied the Department of Architecture, but it was also from this moment that Lin Huiyin slowly forgot her novels, prose and poetry, so her complete works happened to be divided into two almost equal parts, which was actually unique at the time.
Li Ruofan smiled and said: "It's Liang Rengong's son, right? I'm going to study in the United States? But I've heard that the University of Pennsylvania doesn't accept female students." ”
Lin Huiyin first said don't talk nonsense, and then heard Li Ruofan's words and was a little surprised. In fact, there is also part of the reason why I am willing to study in the United States to avoid Xu Zhimo. I entered the Department of Architecture with Liang Sicheng because of the opinion of my family, and a major can have more common language.
Liang Sicheng is very talented, but the second wife he married after Lin Huiyin's death at the age of 50 is undoubtedly visionary.
But Lin Huiyin was surprised that she was going to go abroad to study architecture in fact, no outsiders knew about it, where did Li Ruofan know about it. At that time, it was the time when the New Culture Movement was booming, and as a talented woman of the Republic of China, Lin Huiyin may not be so willing to give up everything in Beiping and cross the ocean.
Li Ruofan regretted it a little after speaking, maybe he would change Lin Huiyin's plan. This is not good.
Lin Huiyin said: "You also studied in Pennsylvania?"
Li Ruofan smiled: "I can look at the face." But it's true that people don't accept female students!"
Lu Xiaoman also heard Li Ruofan's words, but he didn't think that Lin Huiyin really wanted to go abroad with Liang Sicheng. Girls always have to get married, but if you want to be happy, it's not enough to be a good person, and the other half must also be a good person.
Lu Xiaoman was playful, and she had wondered more than once whether Xu Zhimo regarded her as a substitute for Lin Huiyin. After all, Xu Zhimo turned around and pursued her after the pursuit failed. Her husband is a soldier, and it is difficult to be with her every day, but in terms of identity, she and Xu Zhimo are half a catty, one has a wife, and the other has a husband.
Lin Huiyin will not accept the pursuit of a man with a wife, no matter how talented he is. But she did not refuse to be literary friends with Xu Zhimo, but when her parents ordered her and the words of the matchmaker came, she had to make a choice. Going abroad is undoubtedly a good move to avoid gossip, but it is a little unfair to Lin Huiyin.
Lin Huiyin turned around and didn't answer, but went to watch the drama on the stage.
Ruan Lingyu and Ruan's mother are already on the stage, and the other characters are all actors from Ouyang Shu and Chunliu Society.
Lin Huiyin looked at Fanyi and said softly: "She is also a poor person!"
Lin Huiyin has read the script of "Thunderstorm", and his feelings about the script author Li Ruofan are complicated. She has also written and acted in dramas, but compared with "Thunderstorm", she is simply a pediatrician.
Li Ruofan said with a smile: "Lu Xiaoman, you observe your role carefully, and the Fanyi on the stage is you." Unlike Peking Opera, drama relies on the depth of language to reflect the complexity of the characters. The key is not to divide the characters into good guys and bad guys, "Thunderstorm" is a tragedy, and tragedy is to tear up beautiful things for the audience to see. ”
If the original script of "Thunderstorm" is slightly flawed, it is the description of the unfamiliar character Lu Dahai.
In fact, "Thunderstorm" that many people in later generations saw was an abridged version, and "Thunderstorm" was first published in the "Literary Quarterly" in 1933. In the 50s, in order to adapt to the political needs of the time, the characters were greatly modified, and the characters also changed from rich and vivid, subtle, and complex to conceptual, simple, and straightforward.
For example, Fanyi has a monologue: It's very hot, it's very stuffy, I hope I will become the crater of a volcano today, and I will burn everything clean.
Basically, the later performances are based on the reprint of the 1978 People's Literature Publishing House, and there is no such monologue, of course, not only this one!
Many people may not have noticed that Lu Dahai has no ending, and is more like a dispensable intruder, a passer-by. He is basically a thin character for his mother and sister.
Judging from the script, Lu Dahai might as well be designed as a passerby with no name. But Li Ruofan is precisely from 2016, he has been in contact with ordinary workers since he was a child, and his parents are also ordinary workers, and he has personally experienced the process of workers falling from the clouds to the abyss. So when he transcribed the script, he made a bold rewrite of Lu Dahai.
Li Ruofan said to Lu Xiaoman: "Lu Dahai is the son of Zhou Puyuan and Lu Shiping, his character is not only kind, but also the sensitivity of living in a family like Lu Gui and being influenced by his mother. And when you look at Lu Dahai on the stage, she doesn't show the complexity of the characters at all, but if you look at Ruan's mother, when she met Zhou Puyuan, she actually had a love-hate relationship, and her performance completely surpassed that of the one who played Lu Dahai. ”
Lu Xiaoman said with a smile: "Then you also tell me about the play, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to act well." ”
