Chinese opera is located in Dongmian Hutong in Dongcheng District, but for students who have studied in this institution, especially students from other places, the most impressive thing is probably the North Terracotta Hutong, the boys' dormitory of the Chinese opera is in the North Terracotta Hutong, and you can see from the window of the dormitory that this alley is not getting narrower and narrower like people's hearts. In addition to these, the reason why Chinese opera students are familiar with this place is because in the North Terracotta and Horses Hutong, there is a small theater that I am afraid all Chinese opera students have been to, the Yuanbei Theater.

This is where "The Legend of Wukong" will be performed tonight, this is the first performance, and the audience watching the performance is so small that there are only teachers of Chinese opera and students of the Chinese opera performance department, and even the musical theater department where Sun Honglei once stayed has not been notified.

In the North Terracotta and Horses Hutong, when the Chinese opera students were still in the dark and rushed to the North Theater, the noisy sound came from the North Terracotta and Horses Hutong.

"What additional classes do you have to take in the theater? Alas, do any of you know what we are doing with our student ID cards at the North Theater? A Chinese opera student who was not yet in his twenties and had just entered college walked to the theater full of questions in the company of his friends.

The students around me responded: "The class arranged by the head of the department said that it was ...... If you want to watch a drama, after watching it, you can write your feelings with your real feelings, as if the important leaders of the school are here, and the acting department is here for us. ”

"Come on, it's like something, isn't it because we're freshmen? Do you look at how many of those seniors are still in school? I heard that Wen Chang basically didn't show up at school much when he was in school. ”

"Don't you say that you are the king of the garbage, and you don't have the pleasure of pretending to be ham sausage?"

"Fuck off."

A group of students walked towards the theater. When I arrived at the door, even the people from the school security department were there: "Student ID." ”

The student glanced left and right and said, "How do you see other people performing with standing guards?" ”

"Alas, do you think it will be Tang Yan and their return to perform. So it's so strict? ”

"You're sick in the head, aren't you? Tang Yan was the Olympic baby who was handpicked by Zhang Yimou back then, and came back to perform a drama for us freshmen who had just entered the school? Do you know how much an episode of a TV series people make now? That's tens of thousands! ”

In the midst of wild speculation, this group of students entered the theater, and the theater was already overcrowded, and in addition to the new students in the acting department, they also saw many people they didn't know: "Where are they?" ”

"Dude, where are you? Why do you also watch dramas in Chinese opera? ”

"From the Beijing Film Academy." One of the more extroverted students responded: "Don't mention it, we all made an appointment to go to Shidu today, and suddenly we received a notice a few days ago that we were going to come to Chinese opera to watch a drama performance." I didn't say that. Your school is good enough, a drama has to be performed across schools, and we have to squeeze the bus here by ourselves, and if we don't come, we will have to deduct credits. ”

The students of Chinese opera were stunned: "Our school's performance? That's not right. You go to the Chinese opera now. Let's see if the third-grade students in the school are enough to make up a drama, now Hengdian, Beijing, Huangpu which film and television city does not have a hundred and eighty crew to start a play, all the professional ones have been pulled away, and we will perform, if we perform, why do we let you come all the way over, and your Beijing Film Academy is not without a theater. ”

Tong guò talked, the students of Chinese opera and Beijing Film Academy were stunned, look at the current posture. The ones who will perform on stage for a while are neither from Chinese opera nor from the Beijing Film Academy. That's even more wrong, it's not just film and television dramas now. The drama market is also booming, and all kinds of small theaters have young people who love literature and art lining up to buy tickets.

The whole scene is becoming more and more full of doubts, and the backstage of the Yuanbei Theater is even more chaotic than the front desk!

"Makeup artist, my ear has fallen off, Zhu Bajie has only one ear, and the hair on Sun Wukong's body has to be dyed black." It's not a joke, it's that Huang Bo is really anxious.

Not only Huang Bo, but Ge You was not at all relaxed, and in the face of the makeup artist muttering in his ear how to worship, Ge You replied with a cold face: "Can I ask you not to talk to me?" I can't calm down when you talk to me like that. ”

Zhou Xun, Guo Jingfei, and Meng Jinghui are all in a world of solitude, and at this moment, they who originally belonged to the same team actually separated each other.

Nervous.

Not only Shao Yingying was nervous, but everyone present was nervous.

Because everyone knows that no NG situation is allowed in the performance for a while, and their rehearsal happens to have reached a bottleneck, that is, they know that there is a problem with the rehearsal, but they just can't find what the problem is. Meng Jinghui even watched the actors in rehearsal every time they worked hard to sway every line and every performance, but he was inexplicably frightened.

So, he gritted his teeth and experimented in advance.

As an experienced drama director, he knows that drama is always the best when it is not performed in front of the audience, so he faced the newly enrolled students in professional groups such as the Central Academy of Drama and the Beijing Film Academy in advance. Choosing this group of people to become the first batch of free audiences of "The Legend of Wukong", Meng Jingshen has his own purpose, first of all, these students have just entered the school, have not experienced professional training, are in the stage of thirst for various performances, and do not know much about the flaws in film and television dramas, let alone dramas. As long as they can't see what's wrong with the play, they can see what's wrong with the show backstage through the audience's reaction, and then go back and continue to improve until it's close to the ideal state and is on public tour.

Unexpectedly, after he contacted the leaders of the Beijing Film Academy and Chinese opera, the matter became a big one, not only the students came, but even the teachers of many professional courses came to the scene.

When this news came to the backstage, the vice president of the Beijing Film Academy and the head of the Chinese Opera Performance Department came to the backstage in person.

In the face of these students, whether it is Huang Bo, Shao Yingying, or Ge You, they can all decompress themselves because the students don't know how to act. You don't have to put so much psychological pressure on yourself just now, but this group of teachers is different. This is all well-known in the circle, not only the schools on both sides have brought out the 96 star class. Recently, the 02 star class of Chinese opera has also begun to emerge in the circle, and it is known by more and more people, it is all old guns who have been mixed in this industry for many years, and any flaws will be infinitely magnified in their eyes, if there is a little difference cuò after coming on stage, the hero Huayi's people, several big names, and Meng Jinghui, the leading director in the drama market, have to throw people to their grandmother's house.

Shao Yingying's heart has been blocked to his throat, and his heart can jump out if his throat is slightly bigger. This kind of feeling, he has never encountered when making movies and TV series, and this is impossible to repeat. It is a stage that must be passed over and over again, and it must be impressive.

At this time, Shao Yingying finally realized the difficulty of standing on the stage and performing, which is a sense of oppression that no one needs to speak, and you can drive yourself crazy.

In such oppressive sensibility. Not to mention learning to relax and perform. Even if you want to catch your breath, you will experience what it means to be difficult.

"Or, go back, leave this regret for the rest of your life, no matter whether you can take this step in the future, you will hate your current self; Or, go out, it's a big deal to lose people to the end, in case it happens. You get what you want. ”

A voice as gentle as water came. Shao Yingying was experiencing brain confusion with his eyes closed when he stood with his head down against the wall in the background, but when this voice came, he opened his eyes and saw Zhou Xun standing in front of him who had already painted his makeup, and those words just now were said by Zhou Xun.

When the four eyes met, Zhou Xun raised his head, smiled, blinked his eyes very mischievously and said a line similar to "Journey to the West": "Wukong, I am waiting for the moment when you step on the colorful auspicious clouds, whether you come to marry me or not." ”

Shao Yingying's mind suddenly produced an explosion sensation like a special effect, and when he closed his eyes again, the rumbling sound was still there, but the whole person fell silent in an instant. is like in "Hell Detective", who can comfort Keanu Reeves who has walked through hell.

"Pull the curtain!"

Meng Jinghui felt the situation and shouted: "Relax, stretching out your head is also a knife, shrinking your head is also a knife, anyway, I have already made an appointment for a performance today, and I can't go back if I retreat!" ”

"Huang Bo, Uncle Ge, Boss Shao, Zhou Gongzi, Lao Guo, you bring more actors around you......"

Huang Bo looked at himself in the mirror and smiled bitterly: "He must have said the opposite." ”

"Get on the props!"

"The movements are sharp." Meng Jingshen's every shout was heard as clearly as possible by everyone on the scene, so as not to cause irreparable consequences due to his low voice: "Sound engineer, prepare the soundtrack." ”

"Smokeman, the effect is made...... What do you think I'm doing? It's going to start in five minutes, and if you don't make the effect, what if the actors come on the stage in a while? ”

"Ready, ready, it's time to play!"

Shao Yingying, Ge You, Huang Bo, and Guo Jingfei, who were wearing makeup, walked on the stage silently one by one, leaning on or sitting under the prop tree, that kind of state is particularly worrying.

Guo Degang said that the better the artist, the quieter he is backstage, it's not that he can't make trouble, he can't joke, he just wants to leave his best love on stage.

These four were in a quiet and worrying state, and there was no emotion to show, but everyone in the backstage was full of expectations for the first four people to appear at this time.

A burst of music sounded, it was Mo Wenwei's song.

"Do you remember? The hot summer of memory, scattered in the wind has evaporated, and the noise has been hoarse......"

"Unfruitful flowers, unfinished care, we have learned many sayings to hide the scars that are not touched......"

As soon as the song came out, the college students who were already confused immediately didn't understand, there are not many people who use this song as a soundtrack in the drama, especially Mo Wenwei's low voice, which is not suitable for being used as a soundtrack in the 'farce' in today's environment.

At this moment, the curtain slowly opened to both sides, and a very nasal smell entered the theater.

The smoke produced by the fog machine has always been smelly, and the taste is very unpleasant, when the domestic special effects technology has improved, this kind of props used to render the atmosphere has been abandoned by the film and television crew, however, this is still the most commonly used prop on the drama stage.

The music is getting lower and lower, and the scene consciously lowers the sound in doubt, and the students who have been in school for several months know that when the curtain opens on the drama stage, it means that the main drama has begun.

It's just that at the moment when the four masters and apprentices appeared in the jungle posed with props, Ge You's face without special effects makeup was recognized by the students at once.

"I'll go!"

"Uncle Ge actually came here to perform a drama!"

"It's copied today!"

The students fried the pot at once, the four people who were supposed to say the first line by Ge You didn't move on the stage, Ge You, who has rich performance experience and just finished the drama in 2007, didn't speak at all at the beginning, but quietly waited for this group of students to make a noise, otherwise he would definitely be suppressed by this noise as soon as he said his lines, and then his partners would be in trouble, and then go down, the audience didn't hear a word of what he said just now, you haven't played the lines have already been said, and it will be more embarrassing if you say it again.

"Be quiet!"

"Shut up, wait back to school and see how I clean you up!"

The teachers who brought their students to the theater first made a big red face, isn't it a shame? still blocked the face of the other school, and all of them hurried to help maintain order on the scene.

At the moment when order was restored, the students were all laughing and buzzing: "Alas, who is playing with Ge You?" Why don't I know any of them? ”

"Don't you know and can't listen? I estimate that Wen Zhang has to come back, Uncle Ge is here, can he not come? ”

In this way, a drama without a water brand began when only the school leaders and department teachers knew what it was playing.

Ge You, who was sitting on the ground and playing Tang Seng, spoke: "Wukong, I'm hungry. ”

Rumble!

Ge You didn't do anything, just said a line, and the students laughed out loud, which was completely a foreshadowing made in advance by Uncle Ge with years of experience on the big screen, which was unexpected.

At this time, you can't be the same as just now, if you are still waiting for the noise to fall and talk, the play will not be connected, and now Shao Yingying will definitely not be able to suppress the students who are full of pits.

Lying on the ground, Shao Yingying, who was wearing special effects makeup, writhed on the ground like a worm, and then, like a person lying on the bed, he didn't say a word and shook his body vigorously.

When the murmur fell again, Geyut innocently raised his voice and shouted, "Wukong, I'm hungry!" ”

Of course, there was laughter among the students, but this time the laughter was much quieter, and it was to the point where it didn't affect the performance at all.

The tutor of the Beijing Film Academy smiled, and said ostentatiously to the leader of the Chinese opera: "Shao Yingying's reaction is much faster, it seems that the training in the entertainment industry has made him grow a lot." ”

The leader of the Chinese opera responded in a low voice: "It has to be said that the Beijing Film Academy has a large number of talents and is well cultivated." Let's watch the play first. ”

"Yes, watch the show first." (To be continued......)
