Chapter 226: The President's Competition
Du Changfeng said that he wanted Su Wen to defeat him with drama works, which shocked everyone for a moment.
It's a rhythm to challenge with people!
Tang Yan's brows furrowed even tighter, Du Changfeng's meaning was already very clear: if Su Wen wants to be the president of the drama club, he must pass him first.
And the requirement to pass Du Changfeng's level is very simple, that is, to come up with a better drama work than him!
Although the Drama Club is only a student organization for the exchange of drama creation, after all, it is a university such as Huaxia Academy of Letters, and it is generally also responsible for supporting the drama creation of Huaxia Academy of Literature.
Don't look at the fierce competition between the drama club and the drama society, that's because everyone is competing for honor in the school, and sometimes, in the face of outsiders, they will also collaborate on works.
For drama clubs and drama societies, good drama is the work they need. Whether it is external or internal competition, if you want to distinguish the high and low, then take the work as the high.
Huaxia College of Literature has its own theater, and when some celebrations are held on campus, or exchanges with external organizations, for the field of drama, there are still several theatrical performances.
Who performs, whose work is used, and whether the work is good or not depends on the competition of people in the school.
The main body of competition is the drama club and the drama association, and even when the two associations compete internally, they also speak through the drama works.
Du Changfeng's so-called competition for drama works refers to such a thing.
Without waiting for everyone to refute, Du Changfeng looked straight at Tang Yan and said expressionlessly: "President Tang, you tell Su Wen that he wants to be the president of the drama club, so take out the drama work to speak." For half a month, he and I each wrote a play and found someone to play it. After that, it will be performed for all the members of the club, and everyone will understand who is good and who is inferior, and they will definitely be able to see it. His works are better than mine, so I have nothing to say when he is president; But if the work is not as good as mine, I don't think he has the face to be the president, right? ”
"Does it have to be like this?" Tang Yan smiled bitterly. "There are too many problems with this way of competition, and half a month is not fair to Su Wen, right? He's a freshman and he's not familiar with the situation on campus, so even if he can get a work, where will he have enough time to find the right people to rehearse and perform? ”
"That's his problem, if he can't even handle this challenge, how dare he be our president?" Du Changfeng smiled coldly.
He understood what Tang Yan was talking about, it was nothing more than that he, Du Changfeng, had been operating in the drama club for more than a year. There is also a connection with the drama association, and it is easy to find suitable theater performers, which is a disadvantage for Su Wen.
Half a month, to write the script, but also to select the right personnel to rehearse, and finally perform, is a big project.
Tang Yan was worried that Su Wen would be difficult to complete.
Du Changfeng glanced at everyone, and finally said, "President Tang." I'm not trying to embarrass anyone, I'm just thinking about our playwrights. After all, let a freshman become the president as soon as he joins. It's something that our playwriting club has never done before, and we must be cautious. I am not a person who eats the past, and I know that Su Wen's joining may be beneficial to the future of our drama club, but the problem of serving the public is indeed a difficult problem to be solved. Whether he is competent or not, whether he is the strongest freshman or not, and whether it is worth our expectations. This is best reflected in the use of works to speak. Isn't it? ”
Hearing him say this, many students nodded in agreement.
Tang Yan found that the community cadres who originally supported her were all on Du Changfeng's side.
Du Changfeng looked at Tang Yan deeply, and said, "President Tang, I competed with Su Wen, and I didn't mean it was for myself. I'm just testing his strength. Don't worry, even if I win, I won't say what I'm going to do. The president is still President Tang, or you are the leader of our drama club! ”
As soon as these words came out, more people agreed with Du Changfeng.
Tang Yan looked at Du Changfeng and sighed, when it came to this, she didn't seem to be able to make the decision hard.
"That's it, Su Wenshi opened his mouth to ask for the position of the president of the drama club, and he wanted to get everything just by fame, and it was too cheap for him. Think of it as a test for him. How can he have the strength, he can naturally win Du Changfeng like he won Xu Huan......" Tang Yan could only think like this.
With a slight groan, Tang Yan said, "Okay, Du Changfeng, just do as you say, I'll go and inform Su Wen." It's just that I think half a month is a little too tight in terms of time......"
"It can't be more than three weeks at the latest." Du Changfeng thought about it and compromised slightly.
Tang Yan nodded in approval.
Du Changfeng said again: "President Tang, you'd better remind Su Wen that this competition will use new drama works, and you can't use previous works to make up the numbers. ”
Tang Yan smiled: "Even if he wants to compete with his previous works, I won't agree!" ”
Du Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief.
Suwen's fame is so great that even writers who have been famous for a long time think of Alexander, let alone young people of their age.
What gave Su Wen fame was, of course, his works, not to mention the first place in the Chinese Middle School Student Literature Competition, the two plays that gave him the most face - "Romeo and Juliet" and "A Doll's House".
In particular, "Romeo and Juliet", because it is a love theme and has a tragic color, is deeply loved by young people; When Zhang Fangge set up the project as the next film, it caused a sensation among the ordinary people, and Su Wen's work became a drama that the general public had heard of.
If Su Wen insists on using his two plays to participate in the competition between students, with the current popularity of these two works, who can compete?
Du Changfeng did not have the confidence to write a script that was better than these two works, and he could only hope that Su Wen's new works were not so good.
"In those three weeks, we'll be in the school's big theater." Du Changfeng left in a hurry after dropping these words, probably tinkering with drama works.
Huaxia Academy of Literature has a historic theater, which is said to have been here before the establishment of the Faculty of Letters, and has been renovated and renovated to accommodate thousands of people on the upper and lower floors.
It is generally called the Grand Theater, which is the place where the Huaxia Academy of Literature holds a celebration party or a public performance. Under normal circumstances, it is not open to ordinary people, but as a student group of Huaxia Academy of Letters, if the drama club wants to borrow it, the school will also agree.
In the past, when drama clubs or drama associations borrowed the Grand Theater, they were generally used to exchange plays with other schools. In that case, everyone has to do their best, and the work is relatively passable.
There is no shortage of audiences for a good work, and for this kind of open repertoire of the Grand Theater, it can also attract many people to watch it, except for students. There were even teachers or leaders of the school in attendance.
"It seems like something is getting bigger." Tang Yan smiled slightly wryly, "If you really use the Grand Theater, maybe the internal competition will turn into external exchanges, and then it will attract a lot of attention!" ”
Although she was distressed, Tang Yan couldn't do anything, the matter had been decided, and she could only announce the dismissal of the meeting and go straight to Su Wen.
Outside the boys' dormitory.
Su Wen looked at Tang Yan who lowered his head with an unhappy expression, and had an urge to go crazy.
"President Tang. You're too unkind, aren't you? As you said before, I became the president of the drama club as soon as I joined it. Now you give me such a trick, what is it that is not bullying? Su Wen said bluntly with great dissatisfaction.
He had a hunch that it would not be smooth for him to become the president of the drama club, more because he thought that Tang Yan would be in trouble, and he only thought about the time for Tang Da Beauty to solve the problem, and he would not give him an answer so quickly.
Now it's good, the reply came soon, and it was only less than a day. But this reply was a little too strange -- it actually said that he wanted to compete with a certain vice president. Everyone speaks with their works!
It's a rhythm that makes you feel a headache.
Su Wen didn't think about making himself unhappy!
Thinking of this, Su Wen chased after him and said, "President Tang." If you don't want to, forget it, I won't force it, why bother so much? ”
When Tang Yan heard this, she thought that Su Wen was going to give up, so she hurriedly said: "Su Wen, I know that this matter is my responsibility, but the drama club is not my alone after all. The student leaders of the club are all in this position, and I can't force my resolution. I'll admit it's a bit of a toss-up, but it's not without its benefits. ”
"Benefits?" Su Wen smiled indifferently, "I don't see any benefit?" ”
Tang Yan snapped her fingers and said, "There are many benefits. First of all, you can show people your talent for writing dramas. Let them know that there is no false man under the fame; Secondly, you can understand and adapt to the operation of the club as quickly as possible through this competition and by participating in the mobilization of club resources, and when you really become the president, you can get started with the club affairs as soon as possible; Thirdly, through your competitive relationship, spread the word and attract more people's attention to the performances of these plays, so that our drama club can attract more attention and expand the reputation of the drama club as much as possible. Isn't it beautiful to get more than one stone? ”
Su Wenhe smiled: "President Tang, I think the last point is your original intention, use my fame to advertise and promote your drama club." In the end, no matter who wins or loses, you can achieve the purpose of promoting your play. Oh! I forgot that if I win, it won't hurt the playwright, because you're about to have the strongest president; If I lose, it's even better, I even lost to the people of your drama club on the first day, it seems that your drama club is hiding the dragon and crouching tiger, and it can shock many people! Anyway, it doesn't hurt to have a playwright club, does it? ”
Tang Yan hurriedly corrected and said, "It's not you, it's us!" It's our playwriting club! If you really want to be the president of our drama club, you must also hope that it will flourish. So, wouldn't you be willing to contribute your share to its development? ”
Su Wen didn't speak.
Tang Yan said again: "Are you afraid of losing to Du Changfeng?" ”
Su Wen snorted: "Joke! Will I lose to a student in drama? Don't say it's just a young man, even if King Xie Kun forgot to come, I'm not afraid of them! ”
"Then you have to do it!" Tang Yan clapped her palms, "This is the demeanor of the first winner of the Chinese Middle School Student Literature Competition!" This is the first day in my mind! Your self-confidence is our best confidence! ”
"You ......" Su Wen didn't expect to be generalized.
Tang Yan hurriedly said: "Su Wen, you said that you are not afraid of anyone, let alone lose to anyone." You can't compete in a competition that you can only win and not lose? ”
Su Wen touched his nose, his eyes flickering a little.
Tang Yan said temptingly: "Su Wen, although our drama club is not the strongest in the school, it is also a top-ranked club, and we have a lot of resources for you to use." For example, we have a professional team of playwrights, and we also have connections with some student theater troupes in the school, so we can find professional set designers, rehearsal coaches, and plot directors, and even help you find excellent performers. As long as you have good works, we can do our best to serve you, so that your works can move people's hearts and spread fame! ”
"Oh." Su Wenyan's heart moved when he heard this, and he became a little interested, "Are you sure you can find all kinds of excellent actors." ”
Tang Yan was secretly happy when she saw this, of course she wouldn't say that she couldn't do it, she nodded again and again and said: "I don't dare to boast about anything else, when it comes to actors, as long as it is what you need, from seventy or eighty years old to six or seven years old, I can find it for you!" ”
Su Wen didn't believe it: "Brag!" ”
Tang Yan snorted, straightened her already towering chest, and said smugly: "Do you think that our Huaxia Academy Drama Club is a bastard?" No matter how you say it, they are all professional drama student groups of Huaxia Bungaku, not to mention anything else, the colleges and universities in Kyoto are all famous! Kyoto is also an economic and cultural center, and many cultural companies want to get some resources from us, such as some creative plays, or potential works. In this way, we have a relationship with many companies, such as some film and television companies or theater troupes, with them coming forward, what kind of actors are not easy to find? ”
Su Wen frowned: "Borrowing someone outside?" ”
Tang Yan felt that it was not good, and said: "The school is okay too!" In addition to the several troupes of the Drama Society, many drama students also often rehearse their plays. Not to mention anything else, even our teachers and professors are professional theater actors in the country! We've dealt with all of this! ”
"That's ......" Su Wen pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Just now you said that this competition can't use plays that have already been published?" ”
"Yes."
"Is it okay for me to announce the title of the play before, but not publish it?"
"You mean......" Tang Yan vaguely remembered the drama works that Su Wen said.
"Thunderstorm!" Su Wen gave the answer directly.
Tang Yan was suddenly: "That "Thunderstorm" where you said to let everyone see what a real tragedy is, but in the end there was no movement? ”
Su Wen nodded and said, "There should be no problem, right?" ”
"Never published? Haven't performed before? ”
"None of them."
"That's no problem!" Tang Yan snapped her fingers, and there was a joy to persuade Su Wen, "As long as it hasn't been published publicly, it's not a problem, and Du Changfeng definitely doesn't have any opinions." Are you sure it's "Thunderstorm"? Are you sure? Oh, good! Very good! I've long wanted to see what you call a real tragedy. ”
"Since there is no problem, then I will take this game. Although compared with Xu Huan, the official president, Du Changfeng, the vice president, is one level lower, I don't mind letting him appreciate Xu Huan's situation! ”
When he said this, Su Wen was domineering and full of confidence.
Pointing out the country and scolding Fang Xuan is exactly where the arrogance of a literati lies!
"Oh, by the way, please President Tang help me find a beautiful and amorous woman in her thirties, I have a role to be such an actor, she is a very key character in "Thunderstorm". Su Wen explained such a thing when Tang Yan was about to leave. (To be continued......)
