After having dinner at Chen Weiye's house, it was more than eleven o'clock in the evening when he returned to the place where he lived, and most of the time, the two were discussing some matters related to the branch, of course, the main one was Chen Weiye, he was listening, and only occasionally asked a few words if he didn't understand something.

At noon the next day, Lu Yan hurriedly flew back to Beijing again.

Originally, according to his plan, he had to stay in Lanzhou for a day, but the reason for coming back was not that the crew had turned on, but that he had found out that Zhe had something important to find him.

Without delaying at home, with the Lanzhou specialties brought back, Lu Yan came to the theater and went straight to Cha Cha Zhe's office.

Because in the previous phone call, Cha Cha Zhe said that he was going to arrange a "weighty" role for him, and because of his injury in the scene in "The Dawn Is Quiet Here", Cha Cha Zhe had already asked another actor to play it.

"Knock Knock"

"Uncle Cha, are you looking for me?"

Seeing Lu Yan coming in, Cha Cha Zhe pointed to the chair opposite and asked, "I heard Baoguo say that you are healed, how is it, is there any problem with filming?" ”

He heard something from Cha Cha Zhe's words, and he was even more grateful to his teacher.

Lu Yan sat opposite Cha Cha Zhe, patted his leg, and said, "It's no problem at all, Uncle Cha, if you have any tasks, just explain." ”

Then he put an iron box in his hand on the table of Cha Cha Zhe, and said: "This is a little local product I brought from my hometown, sweet lily, which has many effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, nourishing the lungs and nourishing yin, and moistening the lungs and beautifying." ”

Cha Cha Zhe picked it up with a smile and looked at it, and said, "Hehehe, even if you have a heart, then I will accept it." ”

"It should."

He is not a newcomer who didn't know anything when he first arrived, he has seen many directors in the theater, but there are only a few people who really have their own offices.

To be more precise, Cha Cha Zhe is a scholar-type official, and directing is the foundation of his life, but on the other hand, it can also be regarded as a part-time job, and he is more focused on the administrative position of the theater.

Cha Cha Zhe put the box aside, returned to the topic, and said: "The task is not to talk about, the National Day has just passed, there are no big performances in the troupe, but there are a few small performances, if you are in good health, come to rehearse in two days, this is the script, you take it back and take a look." ”

"Hurricane", Lu Yan swept his eyes, saw the name clearly, and immediately came to the spirit.

"Hurricane" is a key repertoire for the 80th anniversary of the founding of the party in 01, the first two years were very hot, several national tours, the popularity has dropped a lot, the once full venue, although now not to say that no one cares, but the attendance rate is getting lower and lower, seeing that it is beyond its means.

Cha Cha Zhe continued: "This scene is directed by Xiao Tian, the original starring Xin Boqing was asked to leave by Director Meng Jinghui, you play that role before you go to play Xin Boqing, rehearse well, and stand on the last shift." ”

Lu Yan knew that the Xiao Tian in his mouth was Tian Qinxin, the director of the theater, but he didn't understand his last sentence very well, and asked, "The last shift?" ”

Cha Cha Zhe nodded, and said: "The courtyard has decided, in view of the low attendance rate, I am ready to stop for a while to make room for other plays, although there are only one or two scenes, but it is also a good opportunity to exercise, you take advantage of it", I was afraid that he would be anxious, and said: "Don't be anxious, as long as the time comes, there will always be a time for you to take the lead." ”

Although Lu Yan was a little disappointed in his heart, he was able to have a chance to play the leading role for Chen Baoguo's sake, and said, "Well, I will." ”

Cha Cha Zhe looked down at the time, stood up and said, "I still have some business, Xiao Tian will come over in the afternoon, you can go directly to him, I have already told him about your business." ”

Lu Yan nodded and said, "Okay, then goodbye Uncle Cha." ”

After leaving the theater, there was no refrigerator at home, and I estimated that the little food left might not be able to eat, so I bought a bowl of noodles in the restaurant next to me and carried it home.

"Hurricane" tells the little-known mental and emotional journey of Tian Han, the lyricist of the national anthem, from the elderly Tian Han when he was dying and yearning for the other side, he reviewed several important life processes in his life.

There are six sections in the whole play, namely "A Play within a Play", "Salome", "Homesickness", "Unanimity", "Guan Hanqing", "The Legend of the White Snake", there are two clues in the whole play, one is a play within a play because of the review of "Tian Han", and the other is a dialogue between him and his students on different historical matters, which is also the embodiment of his personal thoughts.

The script is not complicated, with a total of more than 20,000 words, starting with Tian Han's review and ending with the completion of the creation of "March of the Volunteers".

Taking advantage of the meal, Lu Yan read the script roughly, which is very in line with the main theme of the drama, this is his understanding of the play after watching it.

Although the whole play mainly tells the story of Tian Han's life process, it is full of patriotism and determination to fight for the country from beginning to end.

I'm afraid this is also one of the reasons why this drama can be released during the National Day, in normal times, there are really not many people who are willing to pay for tickets to watch this, it is too empty and boring.

He hadn't seen this scene before, and he didn't know how Xin Boqing performed it, so he browsed the script and had a little bit of his own ideas in his mind, and it was unlikely that he wanted to jump out of the frame, so he could only act in an experiential way.

Compared with TV series or even movies, dramas are luxuries, not because of anything else, tickets are too expensive, a movie ticket costs a few dollars, but the ticket price of a drama may cost forty or fifty yuan, enough to watch seven or eight movies.

Most people, especially young people, prefer to go to the movies, both financially and in terms of the sensory stimulation they can get.

However, the characteristics of drama itself do not allow it to be put on the big screen like a movie, drama belongs to theater art, is a kind of drama, the characteristics of drama are theatricality, assumption, the scene is the most charming, the audience is actually part of the performance.

Although there is no shortage of precedents in the industry, there are very few or even no who have actually succeeded.

It can be said that the characteristics of the drama itself limit its own development.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Lu Yan went downstairs and walked towards the theater.

His house is only two blocks away from the theater, and the reason why he rented a house here in the first place was also due to this factor.

Tian Qinxin does not have his own office, and spends most of his time in the theater rehearsing in the studio or preparing for performances.

When Lu Yan arrived at the theater, Tian Qinxin hadn't come yet, and he was afraid that he wouldn't meet him, so he moved a stool and sat in the corridor at the entrance of the theater.

It was the off-season for performances, and there were not a few performances in the entire theater, and there were not many people, and few people paid attention to him sitting in the corridor.

At half past two in the afternoon, Tian Qinxin's figure walked into the door of the theater.
