Chapter 196: The Heart of Love
In the corner of the first floor, Xu Zhen ended his imitation of Meng Yifan's scene just now and put down the broom in his hand.
Meng Yifan took the broom in a daze, and subconsciously swept the ground twice, with a look of doubt about life.
Groove ......
Is there anyone who can really make a 100% copy after watching it once?
What kind of demon is this Nima?!
The scene "Hamlet's Monologues" Meng Yifan was not chosen randomly, this is his real "specialty".
Because, he is the new male protagonist of the youth version of "Hamlet"!
If it weren't for the punishment he was carrying on his back, this scene would have been toured abroad this year, which shows the troupe's recognition of his performance.
In this regard, Meng Yifan was once extremely proud.
For an actor to have the opportunity to stand on the stage and play the role of Hamlet, it can be described as the greatest honor and pride of his life.
However, Xu Zhen only watched it once, and imitated his performance at the bottom of the box almost the same......
Seeing this scene, a strong sense of frustration came to his heart, and Meng Yifan doubted his acting talent for the first time in his life.
- Am I really talented?
Is it really suitable for eating the bowl of rice in drama?
Or has he been messing with shrimp soldiers and crab generals for a long time, so much so that he has developed honey confidence in himself?
Meng Yifan only felt like a primary school student who had just obtained the amateur piano certificate of grade 10, and he was beaming with pride, but when he turned his head, he found that his classmate was Mozart.
This feeling of being splashed with a basin of ice water on the head makes people scratch their hearts and livers uncomfortably.
At this time, Xu Zhen didn't feel much sense of accomplishment.
Because when he memorized this line before, he referred to top masters like Lawrence Oliver, Kenneth Branagh, and Jude Law.
Meng Yifan's level is compared with others...... Just, let's not compare.
Xu Zhen has never been exposed to drama performance, and of course he will not demand himself according to the standards of drama actors.
He just stood from the perspective of the audience and students, and did not feel how difficult it was to imitate Meng Yifan's performance.
β¦β¦
"Bang Bang ......"
Just when Meng Yifan was full of frustration, and Xu Zhen stopped paying attention to him and turned around to continue sorting out the documents, he suddenly heard a warm applause coming from above his head.
The two looked up and were stunned to find that on the corridor on the second floor, a large group of foreign friends were lying on the railing, whistling and waving to them.
Xu Zhen couldn't understand what the other party was saying, but judging by the other party's expression, this was probably praising them.
The two looked confused.
This is...... Was the impromptu performance just watched by the crowd?
Why are these "audiences" so qualified, and they didn't make a sound at all just now??
Xu Zhen felt very embarrassed, but the audience upstairs was extremely excited.
Several of them turned their heads and said a few words to the president of the Begonia Drama Club beside them.
The president asked the interpreter next to him, "What was he talking about?" β
The translator hesitated for a moment, and said with a strange expression: "They said that our troupe is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and even the cleaners are so good at acting." β
President: "......"
I'm really sorry, the two downstairs, one is the pillar of the younger generation of our troupe, and the other is a very famous young actor in our China.
This international ...... Should I continue to pretend?
What's the deal with feeling a little sour inexplicably?
However, after weighing the pros and cons, the president finally chose to reveal a little information, so as not to be embarrassed by the truth in the future.
He cleared his throat and explained slightly: "Actually, the two young people downstairs are not our full-time cleaners, they are college students who came for internship. β
Well, there's nothing wrong with that explanation, right?
When the interpreter relayed these words to the guests, they not only did not reduce their sense of surprise, but felt even more admiration.
One of them nodded, "Your system is very good!" β
"Let college students come to the troupe to do chores, experience life at the same time, but also feel the atmosphere of the stage up close, and enhance the young people's yearning for the stage."
As he spoke, he pointed to Xu Zhen and Meng Yifan downstairs, and said, "The performances of the two of them just now are almost exactly the same, they are both imitating your professional actors, right?" β
"This kind of imitation exercise is very meaningful and is the only way for young people to progress!"
"You can imitate Dao to this level just from the audience, these two children are very talented!"
Hearing him say this, several people around him also echoed him, feeling that this time he came to the Begonia Drama Club to gain a lot and it was worth the trip.
President: "......"
No, you guys have a lot of misunderstandings, and I don't know where to start......
Ignoring the president's strange expression, these people suggested to themselves in the spirit of Bole: "With the current level of these two students, we can actually try to let them perform on stage." β
"Take the stage as soon as possible, don't patronize the experience and miss the good seedlings."
The president agreed.
After all, you can't learn a lot just by standing in the audience, you have to stand in the spotlight and receive the tsunami-like feedback from the thousands of audiences in the audience, so that you can truly appreciate the charm of stage performance, so as to inspire the actors' love for acting from the heart.
However, the problem is that Meng Yifan has long been a frequent guest on the stage, and Xu Zhen ...... I just felt very embarrassed that he came to rub his own stage.
The president lay on the railing, rubbing his chin, and couldn't help but look at Xu Zhen twice.
You can't generalize about people and people.
In the performance just now, of course he knew that Xu Zhen was imitating Meng Yifan.
Meng Yifan's performance was taught by several veteran actors in the troupe, and it took more than half a year to polish it to this level.
And Xu Zhen ...... When did you start learning?
The president was both puzzled and shocked.
Although he knew in his heart that Xu Zhen wanted to come to their troupe to act, I am afraid that he would come to brush up on his qualifications, just like those who lacked artistic virtue before.
However, his talent is so good, even if he comes here to have a plan, is it worth putting some effort into cultivating it?
The president looked at Xu Zhen downstairs, and suddenly rose to love talent.
Well, I just think that this kid's talent is good, not because he just helped the troupe show his face in front of foreign missions.
β¦β¦
That night, those people from the foreign troupe visited the Haitang Theater and said that they were a little tired today and hoped to rest early, so they refused the troupe's request for a banquet.
Shen Danqing seized the opportunity and led Xu Zhen to the president's office again, intending to persuade the president to give Xu Zhen a chance to perform on stage.
However, when the two came to the president's office, the other party completely changed his face compared to the afternoon, got up and shook hands with Xu Zhen with a pleasant face, and said, "Xu Zhen, hello, hello, I've always heard people talk about you recently." β
"The powerful representative of the younger generation, I heard Mr. Shen say, you want to participate in the rehearsal of our new play? Welcome, it's an honor! β
Shen Danqing: "......"
This guy ...... Why did Xiao Xu suddenly become this attitude as soon as he saw him?
And Xu Zhen was also a little surprised when he saw the president at this time.
ββThe uncle who was with those crooked nuts this afternoon turned out to be the president of the Begonia Drama Club?
I thought he was a tour guide.
