Chapter 146: Learn art before learning morality, and be a person before acting

Xu Zhen was really angry when he heard Meng Yifan make nonsense on stage and say that Shen Danqing's performance was outdated.

Even angrier than when he was teased in the exam room for the art exam.

Xu Zhen has not watched many dramas, and he dare not say how knowledgeable he is.

However, he clearly remembered that when he watched "Ten Thousand Lights" for the first time, he was moved by Mrs. He's monologue and almost cried on the spot.

The years of hardship and hardship, the confessions like weeping and complaining, and the surging emotions wave after wave, all hit people's souls.

This kind of strong stage performance, in the eyes of the fledgling Xu Zhen, is simply a work of art.

It's a pity that Teacher Shen Danqing has not starred in many film and television dramas, and almost all of them are family ethics dramas, so I may not have the opportunity to cooperate with her.

And Meng Yifan ......

Oh, acting in a lame performance, but it is disgustingly arrogant.

For this kind of person, it is not enough to slap the back of the head, you have to punch you hard in the face.

"Yes, if you want to act, come up and act." Meng Xiangdong was in a complicated mood.

Xu Zhen thanked him, left his seat, and adjusted his emotions while walking unhurriedly to the stage.

This time, he doesn't plan to do any "innovation", just directly restore 100% of Shen Danqing's performance back then.

Because, instead of wanting to compete with Meng Yifan, he wanted to use performance to refute his ridiculous arguments.

- Let the audience judge which style is more suitable for this part of the performance!

……

On the sidelines, Meng Xiangdong grabbed Meng Yifan's back collar, dragged him off the stage, and gave the stage to Xu Zhen.

Meng Xiangdong looked at Xu Zhen's tall figure and stepped on the stairs leading to the stage, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

One-step, two-step, three-step......

Every time he took a step forward, his body collapsed a little, and his spirit seemed to gradually weaken.

In the last few steps, he walked heavily and with difficulty, his shoulders high and low, pacing diagonally forward.

Meng Xiangdong almost lost his mind.

In just ten seconds, he watched a vigorous young man grow old step by step.

Ten years in one step.

When the person arrives on the stage, he is already half of his body in the ground.

"Their dad is so clean."

Xu Zhen stood in the center of the stage, grinned, and read out his first line with a smile, saying: "As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I picked up the duster from the window, and swayed it to and from my feet, legs, and body." ”

"Swing it out there!"

After saying this sentence, after only twenty seconds, Meng Xiangdong admitted defeat for his nephew.

"Xu Zhen" has completely disappeared, and at this moment, standing in front of everyone is a living Mrs. He.

At this time, "Mrs. He" talked about her husband, but her face showed a sweet smile like a young man, and her eyes were full of infinite nostalgia for the past years.

The young man outside the play is playing the old man.

The old man in the play is playing the young man.

This confused but real sense of age opened Meng Xiangdong's eyes and made him ashamed.

β€”β€”This performance is much better than when Xu Zhen participated in the art examination!

It's simply the difference between a high school student and a graduate tutor!

β€œβ€¦β€¦ When I was 39 years old, his dad was gone. ”

In a flash, Xu Zhen has already played to the point where Meng Yifan first caused controversy.

Meng Xiangdong hurriedly looked at the stage.

At this time, unlike Meng Yifan's forbearance and restraint just now, Xu Zhen's expression was not collected at all.

He frowned and pursed his lips, the muscles on his face twitching slightly from excessive sadness, and his eyes glistened with tears.

Xu Zhen stretched out four fingers, stretched out his arm and shook it, and said in a dumb voice: "I have been widowed for forty years!" ”

This sentence was roared out, and it had already broken by the time the word "widow" arrived.

At this moment, Meng Xiangdong only felt that his heart was hit by a heavy hammer.

What is the contagious power of performance?

That's it!

In the same sentence, Meng Yifan only makes people feel that his acting skills are good and handled really beautifully, but in Xu Zhen's performance, he can make people forget the existence of the actor and be purely infected by his performance!

On the stage, the tears in Xu Zhen's eyes fell like beads with broken threads, but he did not wallow in his grievances.

While crying, he frowned and said, "The most uncomfortable thing is that his father just left, and before he died, he left a word and let (his bones) be sent back to his hometown!" ”

Xu Zhen spread his hands, his eyes were full of collapse: "Where is it so easy?" ”

"Your man is dead, the He family is ruined, and you are a widow pulling a bunch of children......"

At this point, his voice suddenly rose to a higher pitch, exclaiming, "People are snobs!" ”

"Woo woo woo ......"

At this moment, Meng Xiangdong clearly heard a low whimper from the audience.

Already the audience has started crying.

On the stage, Xu Zhen didn't wipe his tears, only snorted, looked at the void in the distance with a sloppy look, and said leisurely: "No matter how difficult it is, I will send you back." ”

"When I get to your point, I won't cause so much trouble to the child."

"Mrs. He" patted her chest and said in a dumb voice: "Zongqi, I am worthy of your He family, so many children, I have pulled you up." ”

"I'm alone!"

"They've all been raised!"

The small theater was wrapped in the echo of this roar, shaking the eardrums of everyone present.

Offstage, Meng Xiangdong watched this performance of less than three minutes, and the shock in his heart was indescribable.

Of course, he has watched the original version of "Ten Thousand Lights".

Xu Zhen's performance just now, is this called Shen Danqing's style?

- This is called being possessed by Shen Danqing!

Meng Xiangdong couldn't see any difference between this performance and the original version without comparison.

Moreover, he clearly remembered that when he went to the theater to watch "Ten Thousand Lights", he watched the people around him cry after this scene, but he was completely indifferent to this scene because he was too familiar with Shen Danqing and her performance style.

However, when this performance was put on another person, he clearly realized how good Shen Danqing was.

Is it an exaggeration?

Yes, both body language and facial expressions are exaggerated.

Ranting?

Yes, in just two or three minutes, Mrs. He roared three times one after another.

But what's so bad about such a show?

This is a concentrated explosion of the emotions of the whole play, and it is the highlight moment of the character "Mrs. He".

The previous storyline has been fully foreshadowed, and this paragraph, just like a flash flood, has found the most suitable outlet for the emotions accumulated in the front.

After watching this scene, Meng Xiangdong was not as depressed as he was after watching Meng Yifan's performance, but felt extremely happy.

This is the expression that best meets the needs of the plot!

This scene is not only exciting enough, but also conforms to the internal rhythm and logic of the drama itself.

Needless to say, this expression is more appropriate and indisputable!

"Bang!" Meng Xiangdong kicked his nephew beside him, and said angrily, "Now, immediately go up and apologize, saying that you are arrogant and ignorant, did you hear it!" ”

However, after waiting for a few seconds, there was no response.

He couldn't help but turn his head to look at his nephew, but saw that Meng Yifan, who was sitting in the seat next to him, was actually crying.

- Moved to tears by the opponent's performance??

You, you're really "amazing"!!

And Meng Yifan saw the uncle staring at him at this time, and quickly wiped his tears, his eyes looked a little dazed.

Teacher Shen Danqing's scene, is it so touching?

Why wasn't I so touched when I watched the original?

……

At this time, in the audience, Meng Yifan was not the only one who cried because of this performance.

Shen Danqing, who was sitting in the corner, took off his glasses, wiped the afterglow from the corners of his eyes, and showed a pleased smile on his face.

Oh, now it seems that this scene really still stands up to scrutiny and is not outdated.

I feel like I was pretty good back then!

Thinking like this, she turned her head to look at Xu Zhen, who was standing in the center of the stage and receiving the thunderous applause of everyone, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

This kid is more powerful than I thought!

Even if I am asked to play it now, I'm afraid it will be his role at most.

If you put the two of us together, it will look like I am acting more like a "fake", hehe.

What is this called?

Seeing that everyone's attention was on the stage, and no one noticed her side, she simply stood up quietly and left the small theater through the side door.

Well, today I really saw a "good show", and it was worth the trip.

……

That night, Xu Zhen performed "Ten Thousand Lights" perfectly in the small theater of the Biaodaolou, and the bloody abuse of Meng Yifan, a student of the same level, spread throughout the entire Chinese opera.

As for the outside world, he only grabbed the stalk of Xu Zhen starring in "Ten Thousand Lights", and selectively had nothing to do with Meng Yifan.

However, the fact that ordinary people on the Internet did not pay attention to Meng Yifan does not mean that others did not pay attention to him.

Early the next morning, the Haitang Drama Club issued a notice, claiming that the artist Meng Yifan of the club suspended all performing arts activities because of "disrespect for teachers and virtues", including the large-scale drama "Jing Ke Assassination Qin", which was scheduled to tour the Baltic Sea coast in October;

and the avant-garde drama "Dinner", starring him and about to tour the Aegean Sea.

A week later, the students of the Chinese Opera Performance Department also discovered that Meng Yifan was missing.

After private inquiry, it was found that this guy was forced to suspend his studies for a year by his uncle Meng Xiangdong, and asked him to go to the troupe to do chores and work as coolies.

Learn art before learning morality, and be a person before acting.

Meng Xiangdong put all his attitudes to the minimum, hoping to extinguish the anger of Shen Danqing and other bigwigs.

Meng Xiangdong sighed extremely tiredly.

Forget it, instead of teaching him to act, it is better to go to great lengths to teach him how to behave.

How to go next depends on his own mind and creation.

I can only help you get here, uncle.
