"Stop!"

Chen Xinyi shouted to stop and said to the stage: "Xiao Li, it's too loose, take a little." ”

"I'm sorry, director, I know." Li Tang hurriedly raised his hand to signal.

"Okay, come again."

A scene was rehearsed, and Li Tang's performance was obviously accepted, but the effect could only be said to be unsatisfactory, barely passable.

Chen Xinyi was dissatisfied in his heart, but seeing that the time was almost up, he had to wave his hand and say, "Okay, I'll be here today." Xiao Li, you stay for a while. ”

Li Tang knew that he had the most problems in today's rehearsal, so he trotted all the way down from the stage, and apologized with a sneering expression in front of him: "Director, I'm sorry." ”

Chen Xinyi shook his head, looked at him with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Xiao Li, are you very interested in Western drama?" ”

Because the performance of Li Tang she saw today obviously had the style of Western drama. The old lady has seen the world, since the fifties began to practice and study drama creation, after the change, as the deputy head of the ACFTU Drama Troupe, created a lot of masterpieces, often traveled back and forth to the domestic and foreign theater exchanges, this year retired and rehired to the drama center, she still knows a lot about Western drama.

The so-called Western drama emphasizes individuality, independence, and innovation. Chinese drama is derived from different aesthetic thoughts, different cultural spirits and creative ideas in China and the West, and it is a synthesis of tradition, clarity and complementarity.

The two ways of performing are clearly conflicting, and when put together, they seem incompatible. To put it bluntly, Li Tang, as a supporting role, is too self-expressive, too prominent, and steals the show.

Li Tang suddenly chuckled in his heart, knowing what his problem was, and hurriedly said: "Director, don't lift me up, I can't talk about research here, I'm just more interested, uh...... I usually see a lot of things in this area. ”

"No wonder!"

Chen Xinyi nodded, and continued: "There are many good things in Western drama, but you have to understand that acting is not a one-person thing, everyone must work together, cooperate with each other, and achieve each other." If you can't solve this problem, then I can only replace it. ”

"I see, Director." Li Tang lowered his head, not daring to refute.

Chen Xinyi looked at him with a depressed look and comforted: "But your performance is still quite innovative, it's just not suitable for "Shang Ying", I will consider you when I go back to "Gadfly". ”

Li Tang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he hurriedly raised his head and said, "Thank you, director!" ”

"The Gadfly" is also a classic work of the Drama Center, and Chen Xinyi's attitude is definitely not as simple as a supporting role, it must be the protagonist!

He was all too familiar with "The Gadfly", as the Irish female writer Agile . Lillian. Voynich's magnum opus was not only put on the screen by the West early, but also a classic Broadway drama. In his previous life, he participated in the drama "Gadfly" dozens of times from the dragon set to the supporting role, and he was full of faith in the protagonist Gadfly, if he was asked to play the gadfly, then he would definitely be able to become the gadfly itself.

Chen Xinyi saw him receiving Lingzi like this, and smiled: "But the premise is that you want to play your current role well." ”

Li Tang hurriedly bent over and over, and said dogleggedly, "Understood!" Got it! Director, don't worry, I will play well. ”

In the rehearsal later, Li Tang tried his best to avoid his own problems, and finally passed the test after several repetitions. The first performance, a full year after Li Tang entered the drama center, can be regarded as stepping on the stage of the drama center in a real sense and accepting the test of the audience.

It's a pity that although "Shang Ying" is far more artistically than "The Color of Stocks", "The Color of Stocks" is more accepted by the audience with a closer to life, more down-to-earth, and at the same time a strong comedy flavor.

In contrast, the costume drama "Shang Ying" seems to be high and low, after only two performances, there are few audiences who buy tickets at their own expense, more in the form of free tickets, which has to be said to be the sadness of an era.

……

"Ah Huang, sit! Sit! ”

On the weekend, Li Tang sat in his yard, holding a piece of meat in his hand, and was training a round little yellow dog.

When the little yellow dog saw the meat, he pounced up, and his mouth kept barking, Li Tang hung on it and didn't give it food, and kept shouting the password in his mouth. After a few rounds, the little yellow dog finally understood, sat down obediently, and Li Tang brought the meat to its mouth.

"Good dog!"

He stroked the little yellow dog's chin.

Ah Huang is very smart, and after eating, he took the initiative to sit in front of Li Tang, and his eyes were slick and he still wanted to eat.

"No, you can't eat too much."

Recently, the street has not been peaceful, and several of their shops on this street have been burglarized one after another. Although Lao Li lived upstairs in his own restaurant, he was still a little uneasy, so he raised this little yellow dog, which is said to be a cross between a wolf dog and a local dog.

This summer was very hot, and the sun was still scorching in late August, thanks to the camphor tree by the river, the huge canopy of the tree blocked the sun, and when I opened the courtyard door, there was a cool breeze blowing from the river through the hall.

Under the shade of the tree, a bamboo chair, a cup of tea, a newspaper, people sit on the bamboo chair to read the newspaper, and the dog sleeps at his feet.

"The Shanghai Grand Theatre will open on August 27!"

The cornucopia-looking building in the People's Square in the center of the city has been built for more than four years and is now finally completed and opened.

"Shanghai has launched the first round of renovation of the old area, and two bays and one house are about to be demolished!"

This is really a coincidence, Li Tang couldn't help but smile.

The so-called "two bays and one house", he is very familiar with it, just on the edge of Suzhou Creek, it is the largest shantytown in the city center, when filming "Suzhou Creek", including the home of the motor, the warehouse where the peony was kidnapped, Xiao Hong's barber shop, etc.

At that time, when I was filming there, I heard from the residents that the news of the demolition had been spread for several years, and everyone was looking forward to the demolition, but it could not be implemented.

"There was a homicide in the Galaxy Hotel, why did the girl die tragically in the hotel room?"

Wow, this title is scary enough!

Li Tang subconsciously sat up straight with his legs folded, and kicked his heel to Ah Huang, who was sleeping, carelessly.

With a terrible scream, Ah Huang jumped up and ran away with a "woo woo".

Li Tang hurriedly read the following content, which roughly means that the girl had multiple stab wounds on her body, although her clothes were messy, there was no sign of being violated, and the room was very messy, the suitcase and hotel wardrobe were turned over, and all valuables were missing, so it can be seen that it was very likely to be a burglary and murder.

After reading the report, Li Tang gasped, and contacted the burglary cases that he had encountered on this street a few days ago, it seems that it has not been peaceful recently, and he plans to remind Lao Li that it is best to leave more people on duty in the store at night, otherwise his father will live alone, and he is not at ease.

At this moment, the mobile phone resting on the small table next to it rang.

Li Tang now uses the new Motorola GC87C last year, the kind of Chinese display, clamshell with antenna, and the antenna has to be pulled out if the signal is not good.

Seeing that it was Ney'an's name on it, he was actually stunned for a moment.

It has been almost three months since Naian went to the capital to shoot a TV series in early June, and I still received a call from her. If he didn't contact him again, he would probably forget that he still had such an agent.

"Hey, Sister An, ...... you come back?"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Nai'an's urgent roar: "Li Tang, are you free now?" ”

"I'm at home in the country."

"In this case, you'd better leave now and arrive in the capital before noon tomorrow."

Li Tang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"No, oh, I was in too much of a hurry just now. That's right, I got the news that there is a drama in Qiongyu that is selecting actors, and I contacted the crew over there yesterday and handed over your resume. The crew just called, saying that they are in a hurry and hope to meet the actors tomorrow afternoon, so you try to hurry. Oh yes, this drama was filmed for the first time last year, and it is said that it is particularly popular in Wanwan and Hong Kong, and it will be introduced to the mainland. Now I plan to shoot the second part, it is still the original cast, I want to add a few roles, the roles are quite heavy, and I heard that there are a lot of people fighting. ”

"Uh...... Okay, I'll find a way to buy a ticket first, and I'll call you when the departure time is confirmed. Li Tang said.

hung up the phone, he was still confused, he only knew that it was Aunt Qiong's play, and she was going to make a sequel, and he didn't know anything else. But since Ney called in such a hurry, he had to go anyway.
