Chapter 40: The Great Shakespeare Doesn't Shine
"Can you tell your little 'unproductive' to leave first? Enables me to stand up. Liu Qibao said.
"I'm called 'Unprofitable,' and they're called 'Debt Collectors.'" The giant baby pointed to the dolls. When the dolls heard the giant baby call them debt collectors, instead of protesting or getting angry, they all giggled, as if it was fun to be called "unproductive" and "debt collectors".
Liu Qibao also laughed with them,
'Aha!' No interest', 'debt collector', hahaha, it's funny! ”
But when he laughed, all the dolls stopped laughing and glared at him with narrowed eyes. Liu Qibao had no choice but to put away his smile in embarrassment.
"You're not stalling, are you?" The giant baby squatted down and looked at Liu Qibao with the eye on the left that had not been cut by Airu.
Liu Qibao didn't wait for those "debt collectors" to leave his body, and when their attention was relaxed, Huo Di stood up, shook off the "debt collectors" on the ground, and strode towards the stage before they came back to their senses.
Liu Qibao took less than two steps, and the giant baby's palm "touched" the ground and hit the floor in front of him, and even the floor vibrate, blocking Liu Qibao's way.
"Where do you want to go?"
"On stage! Did you say that the play is not on stage? ”
"I'm the screenwriter!"
"That's right, you are a good screenwriter, I am a good audience, and when the two of us think together, it is a box office guarantee."
"A good screenwriter should listen to the audience?"
"It's not listening, it's a reference, it's research, it's down-to-earth, whatever you say. Don't you want to know what's going on in the audience's mind? ”
"Why should the screenwriter care what the audience thinks?" Giant Baby said.
"Tut-tut! This is an idea only found by petty bourgeoisie, in fact, great screenwriters care about what the audience thinks? ”
"For example?"
"Shakespeare, for example."
"Really? If I listen to the audience, I am Shakespeare? ”
"Almost."
"Okay!" As soon as he was happy, he applauded mercilessly. The other "debt collectors" saw that the king applauded and applauded, forgetting the two people who were suppressed. Liu Qibao hurriedly shook his hand secretly to Zhong Yin, who quietly picked up the weapon, Zhong Yin understood, stopped moving, and turned his head to look at Liu Kuan, Liu Kuan looked at the place where Ailu fell, Zhong Yin looked at the position indicated by Liu Kuan, and saw that Ailu had already stood up and picked up the machete, Liu Kuan and Zhong Yin hurriedly gestured to him and told him not to move. Liu Qibao saw that there was no further ado, and hurriedly hit the snake with the stick,
"Shakespeare! Can I call you Shakespeare? ”
"You can call me Shakespeare Unproductive." The giant baby grinned so much that it was grinning at the back of its neck. When the debt collectors saw it laughing, they laughed too.
"The great Shakespeare is not in the limelight, can we now begin to arrange a masterpiece that will shake the past and the present?"
"Yes! OK! "The giant baby scratched his cheeks with joy.
"Great screenwriter, please!" Liu Qibao bowed to the giant baby.
"Great audience, please!" The giant baby also stood up and bowed to Liu Qibao, but because he was too fat, he couldn't bend over, so he could only nod.
The two came to the steps next to the stage, and Liu Qibao suddenly stopped and looked at the giant baby.
"What's wrong? Why don't you go? The giant baby asked.
"You don't have that kind of babble here, do you?" Liu Qibao asked.
"You mean laser light? That's to add to the stage, and I turned it off before I came down. ”
"Where's the switch? I'll need it later for rehearsals. ”
The giant baby hesitated.
"It's all for the sake of the show! The great Shakespeare is unproductive. Liu Qibao said.
"Red button next to the wing curtain." The giant baby said to Tao Tao.
"Quick, there's no time, the great Shakespeare is out of luck, please come on stage......"
Seeing that Juying and Liu Qibao were on stage, those "debt collectors" completely forgot what they were going to do, and they all crowded to the front of the stage to see the masterpieces that shook the past and the present.
"Please stand in this position. Let's add another character, and this character is, the great Shakespeare and the unproductive Lao Tzu—"
"Why do you want to add the role of 'Lao Tzu'?" The giant baby was furious.
"What was your last line?"
"Dad, I'm finally a swan." The giant baby not only said, but also performed.
"Again, what's Daddy's name?"
"Lao Tzu."
"Isn't that right?" Liu Qibao said.
"But," the giant baby was a little confused. "I still don't understand, why is 'Lao Tzu' in my play?"
"Let me tell you so. Here you say, 'Lao Tzu, I'm finally a swan,' and then Lao Tzu comes out and says, 'Boy! You're so good! You have a profit, you don't collect debts at all, and our family's ancestral graves are smoking. ’”
"Hey! Good! And then what? ”
Then the boy pulled out his gun and killed him. ”
"Good show!" The giant baby danced happily and circled in place. Zhengle, suddenly seemed to remember something. "You can't copy this, do you? Why do I seem to have seen this one somewhere? ”
"How is that possible! This is a masterpiece that shakes the past and the present, how can it be copied? Liu Qibao hurriedly argued.
"I've really seen a plot like this somewhere."
"If there is a similarity, it is purely a coincidence. It means that our great Shakespeare and the great playwrights of ancient and modern China and foreign countries want to go together. ”
"You didn't lie to me?"
"I'm a big fan of yours, how dare I lie to you."
"Good! Then let's line up the kid to kill the old one - I said 'good audience', can I change 'boy' to 'Shakespeare unproductive' here? ”
"You wrote the play, and you can change it as you like."
"No," the giant baby rarely showed a shy smile, "I'm a good screenwriter, and I want to listen to the audience." ”
"That's what a good screenwriter does, and now that you're a great screenwriter, you don't have to listen to the good audience, and the bad audience doesn't listen to it."
"It's good to be great. Let's rehearse it. Who should be 'Lao Tzu'? ”
"Me!" Liu Kuan volunteered to raise his hand in the audience.
"Did he make it?" looked Liu Kuan up and down without interest.
"Why can't it be, you look at him like an old man."
"Okay, it's up to you, let's go on stage."
Liu Kuan came to power according to his words and stood in the position designated by Liu Qibao.
"You'll also need a stage manager and an assistant director." Liu Qibao said to the unproductive.
"Why?"
"Hey, the stage manager will help you go, the assistant director is responsible for writing down your great lines, otherwise, how can it be a masterpiece that shocks the past and the present?"
"That's right. Where is the stage manager? ”
"Here!"
Aru hastened to agree.
"Where are you still standing as a stage manager, why don't you go behind the wing." Liu Qibao stretched out his hand and pointed to the wing curtain. Aru understood and quickly took his seat.
Liu Qibao pointed at Zhong Yin again, "You see that the assistant director is the one over there, okay?" ”
Zhong Yin hurriedly said, "The great Shakespeare is not promising, I am honored to be your assistant director, and I have the opportunity to learn from you how to write masterpieces that shake the past and the present. ”
