"Do you think what that little girl told you is true or false?"

When she came out of Du Ruo's ward, Gu Xiaotang, who was waiting outside the door, asked her.

"Truth or falsehood, I don't know, but that necklace around her neck, there's definitely something wrong."

Park in the parking lot outside the National Dance Theatre.

The building of the dance theater is very simple, it is directly renovated and expanded on the basis of the original rehearsal hall after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The wooden staircase and flooring that were common in the last century before the founding of the People's Republic of China are still preserved.

The theater was very empty, Li Nian got out of the car and opened the memo on his mobile phone to take a look at the schedule, there were two teams going out to perform, and they would come back in about two days.

The orange-red sunset mixed with the mist-blue of the twilight spreads on the autumn-scented floor.

In the empty hallway, the voices of people are clear in the ears.

"Come, let's go through the formation again, and then everyone will go back and rest."

"Dean, our head of the regiment is not here, Du Ruo didn't come, usually the head of the regiment takes us away, how can we arrange if she doesn't come today."

"Hey, why are you so sticky to the head of the group, this scene is a group dance, and the head of the group is just the one at the front to take us in formation, isn't it the same as the dean?!"

"That's definitely different," the boy's voice argued.

"The commander's fixed point is called a quasi, as long as she is there, I don't even need to look at the signs on the ground, I just need to follow her. Now that the head of the regiment is not here, it will be difficult for me to take a group of you around the formation of the dragon as the one who follows the commander closely. ”

"And what do you mean by that? Do you think the dean's level is not as good as the head of the regiment? The teasing laughter grew louder and louder, and then the crowd began to heckle.

"Good boy, you dig a hole for me, don't you?"

"Okay, okay, don't make a fuss." The dean's gentle laughter was heard.

"I'm old, if you want to talk about the level of dance, it's really not as good as your leader. But Xiaoyu, you are not young, you have been in the troupe for two years, and you will be able to lead the team when your head is away. ”

"Hehe, I know," Yu Chen said honestly, "It's not, the head of the regiment is still there, with her, we don't have to worry about these things...... Hey, Captain! There you are! ”

"Captain!"

"Why are you here now, Sister Tilt?"

"You didn't come with us last time you came back from abroad, but you came to the troupe once in the past few days, this is not your work style, is something wrong?"

As soon as Li Niantian appeared at the door of the rehearsal hall, the sharp-eyed Yu Chen aimed at him, and a cheer drew everyone's attention to Li Niantian, and then a group of people jumped up from the ground like chicken blood and surrounded her.

"Tilt, why are you here all of a sudden?" The dean is a woman who has passed half a hundred, and there are already inconspicuous crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, and her eyebrows and eyes are still gentle like water, as if the years have not left any traces on her body.

She took small steps, the inertia of her steps left over from her years of dancing career, and came to Li Niantian from the path that the crowd got out of the way, "Didn't Xiaotang help you take a three-day leave to rest at home, it's not time yet." What do you think? Are you in good health? ”

"I'm fine, Dean." Li Nian took her hand.

The dean is her leader, a tenured professor at the School of Dance, and a mentor to her when she was in school.

It was this teacher who told her that if she wants to be an excellent dancer, she must not only have solid basic skills, but also have skilled dance skills, and also have a certain literary literacy.

Only by reading more books can we be more vivid and fit in the interpretation of the characters, which is the charm of this traditional theater troupe and large-scale dance drama in the market where fast food culture occupies the mainstream.

What's more, the career of a dancer is very short and fragile, and if there is no certain cultural background, it will be difficult to transform into a behind-the-scenes job in the future, and in the end it can only end up with a tragedy of "Jiang Lang's talent".

She is very obedient, and in her four years of college, in addition to going to class, she spends most of her spare time in the library.

Later, when she graduated, when her classmates were still interviewing everywhere and hitting walls everywhere, she got an offer from the National Dance Theater early. Later, in a year's time, he danced from an inconspicuous new crowd in the back row to become the youngest principal of the National Dance Theater.

She was 21 years old.

It is also the time when the dancer's energy is at its peak.

It can be said that she has gone from group dance, to starring, to chief, and now to transforming into a choreographer and director, all of which are inseparable from this teacher's cultivation of her.

She still remembers that in her last life, when she left the troupe, the teacher did everything possible to keep her, and those affectionate eyes were full of worry and reluctance for her.

"I wanted to come and have a look, after all, I suddenly took a three-day leave without warning, for fear of delaying the progress of "Ni Dress" and not catching up with the tour in the second half of the year."

"You kid," the dean was full of relief, pointed his index finger at her head, and scolded with a smile, "Why are you so desperate all of a sudden, when you first got married, I looked at your little woman's appearance, and I was really afraid that I, the seedling that I had worked so hard to cultivate, would be taken away by unrelated personnel on the way." ”

"Oh, isn't that young......" Li Niantian began to be coquettish, holding her old man's arm and dangling, "I'm grown up now, why don't I come to work hard?" ”

"Okay, okay, now I'm obedient and sensible," the dean looked down at her, and the smile on the corner of his mouth did not decrease, "I can see that you have worked hard, and now that this troupe is handed over to you, I can rest assured, in the future, you will have to support this theater......"

"Oh, what are you talking about, you're still so young, with you, I just need to dance with these little bean buns, right?" Li Nian winked at the children around him.

The children understood and began to coax.

"Sister Tilt, why are you so coquettish, you are not usually like this in front of us!"

"Dean, you are partial, we usually have to take a leave, and it is difficult to die, but as a result, Sister Qian wants to ask for leave, and you still think she is selling the leave early!"

"It's just ......"

"You guys, one or two, know how to play every day." The dean, who was accused of being eccentric, pretended to be serious and raised his face, pointing his finger at them one by one.

Shuluo said, "When your regiment leader is as old as you, he has already won a grand slam of the trophy, and he is already the chief, look at you, and then play poor, and practice a hundred more front bridges today." ”

"Wow, I don't want it!"

"I'm tired enough today, and 100 more front axles can send me away......"

"That's right. Dean, we were wrong, we will definitely practice hard in the future, but today's front bridge will be forgotten. ”

The dean patted the two heads that stepped back angrily, "Day by day, when it comes to practice, I run faster than anyone else." and will be able to stand you. Okay, okay, no more time,"

The dean straightened Li Niantian's head, which was still glued to her shoulder, and instructed, "Since your head of the regiment is back, then you should practice hard with the head of the regiment." ”

"Don't be lazy, this "Ni Dress" is an opportunity for you newcomers, if you can't grasp it, you can only wait for another two years to arrange other plays before you may have a chance to play."

"Okay! Be sure to complete the mission! ”

Li Niantian took the lead and saluted the dean.

The dean left one by one, and the moment his back disappeared around the corner, the solemn atmosphere dispersed.

"Sister Tilt, what did the dean mean by what he said just now?" Yu Chen poked his head out from Li Niantian's left side, and said thiefly, "Do you mean that you want to be the director of the theater in the future?" ”

"Go to rehearsals well, don't think about these things all day long." Li Niantian raised his hand and patted his skull.

Xia Jin's little head popped up on the right, and he couldn't suppress his excitement, "I think it must be, after all, in the entire theater, our classical dance troupe has the most reputation, and in the classical dance troupe, it belongs to our head and is the most recognized by the industry." ”

"After the head of the regiment becomes the dean, it will inevitably lead us to charge into battle and create brilliance!"

The latter words were slapped into two screams by Li Niantian.

"You guys," Li Nian finished beating the gophers, grabbed the two gophers, and surrounded by everyone, walked to the hanger next to him, hung up the bag in his hand, and said a little blame in his tone, "As soon as I entered the door at the entrance of the stairs, I heard you chattering non-stop, thinking about these messy things every day, are you not practicing well." ”

"No, we're good." Yu Chen was aggrieved, "The main thing is that you don't come, we are all very worried......"

"That's it." Several people chimed in.

"Don't pour me ecstasy soup, I don't know you yet, every day your little mouth is like smeared with honey, you know how to make people happy, let you practice one by one to run like a rabbit." Li Niantian expressed his ugly refusal.

"Who said that, we love you from the bottom of our hearts," Xia Jin is also a cheerful person, learning from the way she just pestered the dean, and also came over to pester her.

"Besides, it's not that we don't want to practice, the key is that as soon as you talk about practice, a hundred starts, who can stand it. We've worked hard every time to get it done. ”

"Worked hard, didn't you?" Li Niantian pushed her head away, "Let's start with you today, a hundred front bridges, no one is less, one less, plus ten." ”

"Huh? Yes?! Xia Jin began to doubt her ears.

"Ah what? Okay, all right, now let's talk about something. ”

A crowd of people rushed to the line.

Li Niantian glanced at everyone with satisfaction, quickly put away the joke attitude of the last second, and stood neatly.

"Du Ruo has submitted a resignation report to me, and I will report to the hospital after approval, and from tomorrow, Du Ruo will no longer be in the troupe. The candidate who was originally scheduled to dance the teenager Yang Yuhuan in the original fragment of "Ni Dress" "Boudoir" was replaced by Xia Jin,"

Li Niantian didn't explain what the reason was, asked Xia Jin to stand up from the team, and continued, "Then choose a B corner as Xia Jin's replacement." ”

"Huh?" The news caused some waves, "This has been rehearsed so many times, why can't you say that you won't come?" ”

"That's right, weren't you okay when you went out to perform together a few days ago?"

"Do some of the movements have to be re-choreographed? After all, Xia Jin and Du Ruo's styles are still quite different, ah, I already have a premonition that I will have to work overtime in the future. ”

"Hey, hey, hey!" Xia Jin, who was the central figure, was at a loss when he was suddenly entrusted with a heavy task, and when he heard this, he directly began to blow up, "Dead Yuchen, am I so bad?" I won't drag you to work overtime! ”

"No, my eldest lady," Yu Chen felt very wronged, "The point is, you and Du Ruo have two feelings, and some actions she can do are not suitable for you......"

"You, you, you, you'll be over later, wait for me!"

"Hahaha, it's over, Yu Chen is going to be beaten again."

"Let you talk too much, you can bear the anger of our Miss Xia!"

Everyone was very happy to eat melons, which to a certain extent alleviated the frustrating atmosphere after knowing about this big adjustment.

"Okay, okay, don't make trouble," Li Niantian waited for the pair of happy enemies to finish fighting each other, "Du Ruo and Xia Jin's skills are indeed different, but they are both very suitable for this role, so there will be basically no change in the group performance." ”

"But Yu Chen, as Li Jing in your youth, you have to cooperate with Xia Jin and change your actions a little. Don't worry, I'll teach you the adjustments in three days, and we'll rehearse as usual. ”

"Okay."

"Okay, the group performance continues to rehearse, Xia Jin and Yu Chen, you two come here."
