The news of Brother Dong's sudden abandonment made Gu Xiaofan inexplicably a little nervous, and at the beginning of the rehearsal, he encountered something that made him even more depressed.

Before he came, he thought that the atmosphere of the stage would be invigorating for a while.

But to his disappointment, during the rehearsal, there were no bright lights, no crowds, no piled up props, just dim silence, empty auditorium.

What's more, the band didn't come today, and they had to finish the rehearsal without music......

That's it...... It's too boring, isn't it?

Gu Xiaofan looked at the darkness below, just imagining the scene full of people below, and suddenly felt inexplicably nervous.

This kind of live performance that shows itself in front of everyone, there is no room for repeating it, as long as the slightest mistake will be magnified many times, so that everyone can see the ugliness of the performer.

This thought was swirling in Gu Xiaofan and Lou Yixiao's minds, making their performance movements extremely stiff.

Outcome...... can only be said to be a confused trip, the rehearsal is mainly to adapt to the stage and lighting, because there is no music, Gu Xiaofan is too lazy to be ashamed and does not sing live, just gently read according to the rhythm, and move in the right position, and the result is that the two of them are performing pantomime from beginning to end......

There was no applause, no gaze, they could only see the frowning and shaking expressions of the lighting engineer and venue director next to them.

After the rehearsal, no one in class 06 spoke coldly as usual, on the contrary, the thin man and Yang Qi all came over, pinched Gu Xiaofan and Lou Yixiao's shoulders, and comforted and encouraged:

"It's okay~~ It's a rehearsal~!The formal one will be much better~!"

"Yes, Gu Xiaofan~ You guys have already acted very well, if I go up, I will be scared directly."

Lou Yixiao felt their concern, and could only nod helplessly, she had already begun to regret participating in this musical competition in her heart......

But Gu Xiaofan just pursed his mouth, nodded fiercely and said, "It's different when it's official." ”

Everyone looked at Gu Xiaofan's stiff mouth, but they just shook their heads, and they couldn't bear to say anything more.

Teacher Yan just shook his head and didn't say anything, turned his head to see a puff of white smoke rising in the corner, and knew who was coming, and quietly walked into the corner, and saw Dr. Lin staring at the stage with both eyes.

"It's still too early, it's too cruel for them......" Teacher Yan sighed deeply.

"It doesn't matter...... Dr. Lin took a charming puff of cigarette, looked at Teacher Yan's eyes and said:

"They feel a setback when they lose face here, it's better than being driven crazy by the director dozens of times in the crew after being filmed dozens of times in the same scene."

As Dr. Lin spoke, he suddenly saw Mr. Yan looking intently at the stage of Renyi, and there was an indescribable expression on his face......

It is reverence, expectation, nostalgia, and helplessness......

Dr. Lin was stunned for a moment, and then lowered his voice and said, "You...... Can you still hear it? ”

Teacher Yan looked at the empty stage, but seemed to hear the applause in the sky, the light shone in the center, and there seemed to be a faint voice buzzing in his ears, and he couldn't help but feel excited, and nodded slowly:

He's calling...... Calling for those who are ready to stand there...... But it's not an old guy like me anymore......" Teacher Yan said, glancing in the direction of the students.

Hearing this, Dr. Lin was full of resentment, and said coldly:

"If the stage really has a soul, I hope that one day I can set it on fire so that it doesn't harm you madmen."

Seeing Dr. Lin turn around and leave, Mr. Yan could only reluctantly glance at the stage a few more times before he followed with a sigh......

At night.

Because of the failure of the rehearsal, Gu Xiaofan lay in bed depressed and never fell asleep, he was going to perform tomorrow, but it seemed that everything was not going well.

And Brother Dong, who didn't go today, didn't come out of the bed all day......

In the middle of the night, the snoring of the thin man and the military fan Liu came and went, and in the darkness, Gu Xiaofan heard the faint sound of sobbing from the upper bunk......

It's Tungko...... He must be very unwilling, Gu Xiaofan thought to himself.

The first time I had the opportunity to perform officially, I didn't expect to be defeated before I even went on stage...... Performance is like this, no matter how strong a person is, it can't be carried out without the support of others.

Gu Xiaofan thought that he had been so desperate, and he couldn't help but empathize with Brother Dong who comforted him on the top bunk:

"Brother Dong, it's okay, there is still a chance for the final drama, don't worry, I have a bunch of buddies behind the scenes......"

The sobbing on the top bunk suddenly stopped, and it took a long time before Dong Ge's stubborn voice came: "I'll go see it tomorrow." ”

"Well, let's go and see." Gu Xiaofan said with a sigh, he knew that Brother Dong was still a little unconvinced, but he would prove everything tomorrow.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Yanjing Renyi - Capital Theater.

At the door, the red banner fluttered in the wind, and from a distance, you could see a row of large characters on it: "National College Student Art Exhibition and Evaluation Activity - National College Student One-Act Musical Competition".

The parking lot and entrance are full early in the morning, not to mention the auditorium, which is already full, and even the theater bookstore, artist gallery and drama café next to it are crowded.

Since this venue is generally used as a high-end performance venue, few people will come to buy tickets to watch, and this "National College Student Art Exhibition and Evaluation Event" is attended by many students, so many parents of students have the opportunity to visit here.

The theater hall is classical and magnificent, and the comfortable environment is decorated with various lighting decorations, so that 957 people from all walks of life on the upper and lower floors can enjoy this atmosphere very much.

At this time, the host has already taken the stage and announced the rules of this musical theater competition, as well as the contestants.

In the background, the contestants from all over the world have relatives and friends who are in full swing to prepare.

"Are the costumes ready?" "Props props~! Hurry up~ Where are the props? "Which one took my line book~!"

Every team was in a mess, and everyone was nervous and excited.

Because there are no professional drama, dance and opera competitions at the college level in China, this musical theater competition also brings together the elites of drama, music and dance theaters......

In fact, everyone is for one purpose, to perform well, to strive to get a good ranking, and to be selected by the brokerage company, drama troupe, and art troupe under the stage, and have a good future.

If you are not selected, then as a literary and artistic major, you can only start from the bottom in the cruel competition, many students study opera and dance, and the best way out after graduation is just to be a middle school teacher......
