Chapter 25: Write it yourself
Small Theatre of the Institute of Arts, 3 p.m
The small theater has to rehearse a lot of programs in a day, especially when the final exam is approaching, Zhang Xing applied for two hours of rehearsal time this afternoon, and after they finished the rehearsal, there were other people waiting for the rehearsal.
For a drama that lasts an hour and a half, the two-hour rehearsal time seems a bit tight. Therefore, everyone must be in good spirits and devote themselves wholeheartedly to the performance.
Zhang Xing, as the director and starring role of this drama, has a more important task.
At the beginning, the rehearsal went smoothly, and the performances of each supporting role were also in place, and the people who came to cheer from the audience watched it with relish.
"Vivi, this story is not bad, if it is written as a romance novel, it should be very attractive."
Tan Qianwei, Qian Yueying and Zhai Xiaoli also watched the rehearsal of the drama under the stage today, and today they came to cheer for their best friend Ji Qing in the same dormitory.
At first, a few people didn't care about this drama, but when they saw half of it, the three of them were attracted by this drama, to be precise, they were attracted by Liang Zhu's love story.
Qian Yueying remembered that her best friend Tan Qianwei was preparing to write an ancient romance novel recently, isn't this theme just right.
Qian Yueying's words resonated with Zhai Xiaoli next to her, and bluntly said that this story is indeed a good subject, and also suggested that Tan Qianwei write this story into a novel.
Tan Qianwei was also moved after hearing this suggestion, this story is really good.
It's just that this story is not created by himself, someone has already written it into a play, and if he wants to write this story into a novel, he must also get the authorization of the original creator of the play.
It just so happened that she wanted to write a novel about ancient love recently, and Tan Qianwei, who was worried about the lack of a theme, decided to ask Ji Qing after the rehearsal to find out who the author of this script was.
"Sister Weiwei, do you think Liang Shanbo's actor is very familiar?" , Zhai Xiaoli said suddenly.
"Uh..., it's quite familiar."
"Hee-hee, I don't even know him, that's not the magician we met last time, Lili, you won't forget how you cheated, right?" Qian Yueying was the first to recognize Zhang Xing.
Today's rehearsal is different from usual, today's rehearsal is more formal, all the actors have to go through makeup, Zhang Xing is no exception, Zhang Xing on the stage at this time is like an image of an ancient Pianpian son, Zhai Xiaoli It is not surprising that they didn't recognize it at first.
However, after all, Zhang Xing's fame in the academy is not covered, when it comes to Zhang Xing's name, few people don't know, Qian Yueying originally felt that the person who played Liang Shanbo was very familiar, but after Zhai Xiaoli just said this, she suddenly remembered it.
Many things come and go quickly, after that meeting, although Zhang Xing's name was cursed by Zhai Xiaoli every day for a while, but after a long time, Zhai Xiaoli has long forgotten about that trouble, and Zhang Xing has long been archived, not to mention Tan Qianwei and Qian Liying, two people with quiet personalities.
The reason why Qian Yueying was able to recognize Zhang Xinglai for the first time was also because of a flash of inspiration, and there was no other reason.
"It's him——!" Zhai Xiaoli's tone is long.
"Puff-", Tan Qianwei also remembered the scene when the three of them played together at that time, and couldn't help laughing.
"Hmph, I said why do you look at Liang Shanbo so ugly...... Zhai Xiaoli originally thought this story was very touching, but since she knew that Liang Shanbo's actor was Zhang Xing, she couldn't enter the play anymore, and she felt awkward no matter how she looked at it.
Tan Qianwei: "......"
Qian Yueying: "......"
At this time, the performance on the stage has passed halfway, and it is the stage of change from friendship to love between Zhu Yingtai and Liang Shanbo, and this scene obviously tests the actor's acting skills.
Ji Qing obviously failed to pass Zhang Xing's request for excessive changes in his eyes and tone due to his lack of acting experience.
And Zhang Xing exchanged the skills of a master director, and the performance requirements for everyone are very strict, in fact, it stands to reason that this is just a final assessment performance of the school, but Zhang Xing took it as a mature work to shoot.
Naturally, the requirements are exceptionally strict.
"Ji Qing, what's the matter with you! Didn't I say, the change of eyes, you have to pay attention to the change of eyes"
"Ji Qing, you don't have a brain, tone, this is the tone when you fall in love with your boyfriend, you don't understand affectionately."
"Ji Qing ......"
Well, finally when Ji Qing was about to go berserk, the filming of this transitional period finally satisfied Zhang Xing.
Ji Qing knew that his three best friends were watching his performance below, but he didn't expect Zhang Xing to reprimand himself like a gunpowder today, daring to make the old lady lose face, you kid waited for the old lady, Ji Qing thought fiercely.
At the end of this drama, many people were moved by this ending, and some girls even had red eyes and shed tears of emotion.
"It's so touching to turn into butterflies and fly together," Qian Yueying said.
Zhai Xiaoli said with red eyes: "What a bullshit ending, how can you let the two of you die like this, what's the use of turning into butterflies." ”。
Qian Yueying's eyes were red, and she said to Tan Qianwei: "Weiwei, you must write this story into a novel." ”。
Needless to say, as a senior fiction writer, Tan Qianwei can naturally feel that this story is not just a love story.
This story takes place in ancient times, the story contains elements such as freedom, true love, resistance, etc., Tan Qianwei has a sense of unconfidence for the first time, she is worried that she can't write the essence of this story, and she can't perfectly explain the true meaning of this story.
The rehearsal is over, today is the last rehearsal, and the next performance is the official assessment.
Zhang Xing took off his makeup, took his girlfriend Liu Suqing's little hand and prepared to leave, but heard Ji Qing calling his name.
Looking at the four beauties walking towards him, Zhang Xing was a little stunned, and he didn't know what Ji Qing had called him for. Could it be that he was too fierce to her just now, and now he is looking for a helper to repair himself, Zhang Xing's expression is a little unnatural, good men don't fight with women, not to mention that his girlfriend is still in front of him, run or not.
Just as they were hesitating, Ji Qing and the four of them had already arrived in front of Zhang Xing.
"Zhang Xing, my friend has something to tell you." Ji Qing's tone was not very good, and he was still angry with Zhang Xing's reprimand for himself just now, if it weren't for the effect of the performance, how could Ji Qing be so angry.
Zhang Xing remembered that his tone was indeed not very good just now, and Zhang Xing himself didn't know why, his temper just now was so impulsive, I heard that many big directors had bad tempers, could it be that when he exchanged the directors and masters, he also grafted the tempers of the masters onto himself?
Thinking of this, Zhang Xing's tone slowed down and said, "Oh, what's the matter?" ”。
There were four people opposite Zhang Xing, and there were three girls besides Ji Qing, and Zhang Xing didn't know which of Ji Qing's three friends he had something to talk to, so this sentence was said to Ji Qing.
It's just that as soon as Zhang Xing's voice fell, he heard the surprised voice of one of the beauties: "Su Qing, why are you here?" ”。 Then Tan Qianwei saw Liu Suqing's little hand being held by Zhang Xing, and said in surprise: "...... you guys?" ”。
Tan Qianwei knows Liu Suqing, Tan Qianwei also studied art, although she also has a writer's name, it is just someone's side business, and people's main business is art.
Tan Qianwei and Liu Suqing are classmates in the same class, and the relationship between the two is not bad. In Tan Qianwei's eyes, Liu Suqing is a good girl and a very pure girl, and she has never heard that Liu Suqing has a boyfriend.
So I was a little surprised to see Liu Suqing have a boyfriend today, and I still know her.
"Weiwei, this is my boyfriend Zhang Xing." , Liu Suqing said shyly.
Liu Suqing explained the reason why she appeared here in one sentence, although Tan Qianwei was still a little surprised, but she didn't say anything, but said to Zhang Xing: "I didn't expect you to kidnap the big beauty in our class, you will be good to our family Suqing in the future, she is a very simple girl." ”。
"Uh, Qingqing is my girlfriend, I'm naturally going to be nice to her.". Zhang Xing said.
Tan Qianwei nodded, and then said to Zhang Xing: "I want to write the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai into a novel, I heard Ji Qing say, the script of this drama was written by you, so I wonder if you can sell me the copyright of the novel of this story." ”。
Zhang Xing looked at Tan Qianwei in surprise, a little puzzled, the novel is not easy to write, especially the story of Liang Zhu, Zhang Xing wants to promote this story around the world, and hand over the novel to a college student, especially a student in an art school, Zhang Xing is not at ease.
After all, Zhang Xing's literary database contains several versions of Liang Zhu's novels, and there is no need to authorize others to write them.
"I'm sorry, I'm going to write this novel myself.".
