Chapter 72: Rehearsal
For the performance of the Huabiao Award Ceremony, Li Tang specially purchased a practice uniform, bright Chinese red. Originally, he chose a set of white dark lines, but Nai Anfei said that the red was festive, and he tried to get off to a good start.
So in the rehearsal scene backstage of the newly completed CCTV No. 1 studio hall last year, Li Tang wore this red practice uniform, which looked like a red envelope, but fortunately, his skin was white, and his red body did not look abrupt.
"Hello teacher!"
"Hey, hello!"
"Teacher, you have won the prize, and you have to learn a lot from you."
Most of the backstage of the rehearsal are well-known artists, and it is not wrong to call the teacher. Although Li Tang is very young and looks like a newcomer, the teachers all seem to be very amiable.
Just kidding, the people who can come to the rehearsal site are definitely not ordinary people, and the teachers are very clear about this. Those who have read "Shanghai Chronicle" recognize Li Tang at a glance, and they can't help but praise and encourage them. Even if you haven't seen it, there are only a few people on the shortlist, and the number of seats is very different.
In the background, Li Tang also saw Uncle Benshan.
This time, Uncle Benshan was nominated for Best Actor for "Director of Men and Women", and the most awesome thing about the key people is that this movie was personally invested by Uncle Benshan.
Li Tang hurriedly ran over to say hello: "Teacher Benshan, hello!" Hello! I especially like your sketches. ”
He didn't mean to compliment, he really liked it. Especially the sketch of "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow" performed by Uncle Benshan and Song Dandan and CCTV host Xiao Cui in this year's Spring Festival Gala.
"I'm Baiyun."
"I'm black soil."
"Is this a shoehorn face? This is an authentic pork kidney! ”
"You Pick Socialist Wool ......"
"You're a good fellow, good fellow, and you're like Ge You......"
"Holle, the meal is ready, come down Missy."
Hey, these lines made him so funny at the time. Who said that southerners don't like to watch the Spring Festival Gala, Uncle Benshan's sketches are still very popular in Shanghai at least in this era.
"Thank you, thank you, what are you doing young people?"
Uncle Benshan, who was wearing a trademark blue tunic suit, didn't know him, but he was a little curious when he saw this guy wearing a red Tang suit and holding a sword in his hand.
"I'll do a sword dance."
"Yo, this show is so ......"
At this time, the staff next to Uncle Benshan whispered to him, and Uncle Benshan immediately smiled and said, "Xiao Li, so you still have kung fu?" ”
The staff reminded him of Li Tang's identity, and it is estimated that it is the work he acted, the work unit, and what awards he was shortlisted for. Although this attitude changed a little quickly, Uncle Benshan handled it very naturally.
Sure enough, not everyone can succeed casually.
Li Tang hurriedly said modestly: "It's just that I know a little fur, and I don't have enough teeth." ”
There were many people who came to greet Uncle Benshan, Li Tang knew each other very well, exchanged a few words of greeting, and took the initiative to say goodbye after a familiar face. A small rehearsal backstage is like a social platform.
This is also what Naian specially took care of before coming over, taking advantage of the opportunity of the rehearsal to get to know more people, and try to keep a low posture as a newcomer to leave a good impression on others.
Sometimes it's not about getting something, it's about trying not to offend people unintentionally because of your own negligence.
I have to say that Nell seems to be very cold, but he is actually very good at being a person, and he is quite skilled in handling interpersonal relationships.
That's right, Lou Ye is a stuffy gourd, if Ne An is like him, there will be no way to do many things. A good combination is bound to be complementary.
"Brother Li!"
As soon as Li Tang looked up, he saw three girls who were like flowers and jade, and the one who called him was Hu Jing, who had a relationship with Zhuozhou Film and Television City, the little girl had a ball on her head today, and her hairline was a little high. She was nominated for the Newcomer Film Award as the heroine of "Love in the Internet Age".
Next to him is an old acquaintance Yuan Quan, this is a restrained girl, she smiled at him when she saw him, everything was silent.
Another girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who looked quite atmospheric, looked at him with curiosity.
Li Tang knew that he was really dressed too aggressively today, and he received a lot of attention like this.
"Hu Jing, Yuan Quan, long time no see, congratulations!"
"Brother Li, congratulations too!" The two girls laughed.
Needless to introduce, Li Tang nodded at the girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes: "Miss Meiting, hello!" ”
Mei Ting also said very formally: "Mr. Li Tang, hello! ”
Just finished speaking, she laughed out loud, her laughter seemed to be very low, she knew that it was rude, but she still covered her mouth and couldn't help laughing.
Li Tang, who was laughing, was a little inexplicable.
Fortunately, Hu Jing, who has a high emotional intelligence, immediately played a round and said: "Oh, why are you so formal!" ”
said, and introduced to Li Tang: "We are all classmates. ”
"Hey, then you are really powerful in the 96th class of Chinese opera, the three of you are three golden flowers!" Li Tang couldn't help but be speechless.
Yuan Quan and Mei Ting were nominated for the Best Actress Award, Yuan Quan and Hu Jing were nominated for the Film Newcomer Award, and three Huabiao Award nominations were made in one class, which is enough to shock people, the key is that they have not graduated yet.
Hu Jing smiled: "There are more than three golden flowers, others say that our class is seven...... Uh, eight golden flowers! ”
At this time, Mei Ting, who was still laughing just now, was a little embarrassed, while Hu Jing pulled her sleeve covertly and looked at her with apologetic eyes.
Li Tang didn't notice it, and asked with a smile: "Then what show are you performing today?" ”
"Let's do a dance together." Hu Jing said.
She and Mei Ting both learned dance before going to Chinese opera, although Yuan Quan was the first to sing Peking opera, but opera actors also pay attention to their figures, and dance is actually the basic skill.
"Brother Li, what about you, are you performing martial arts?"
Yuan Quan curiously looked at his red practice suit and asked.
At that time, when the two were filming "Shanghai Chronicle", she often saw Li Tang warming up before filming, playing boxing or something, and knew that Li Tang would do some kung fu.
Li Tang played a sword flower handsomely, and said with a smile: "It's similar to you, play a set of sword dances." ”
The reason why it is said to be a sword dance rather than a performance of swordsmanship is mainly because Nai An helped him with a classical silk and bamboo music, and in the past two days, Li Tang has made some changes according to the background music, and the rhythmic movements are fast and slow with the rhythm of the music, so that the movements are more elegant and rhythmic, so it is simply called sword dance.
Yuan Quan has a shy personality, but after all, she has cooperated with Li Tang, and they get along very well. Hu Jing is purely self-cooked, and she can pick up any topic.
In contrast, Mei Ting was quiet, standing there quietly with a proper smile, like a fragrant jasmine flower.
Li Tang and her only met for the first time today, but he had already been deeply impressed by her in the memory of the original body. remembers the TV series "Scarlet Childlike Heart" she starred in, especially the picture of her wearing that white nightdress, which made many adolescent boys dream back at midnight and wake up wet crotch.
After the crossing, Li Tang also watched "Blood Romance" starring her and Zhang Guorong, and she was shortlisted for the Best Actress Award this time with this movie.
From a professional point of view, she actually acted in this movie in an average way, and it was not even as impressive as Chu Chu in the TV series "Scarlet Childlike Heart".
Including the actor Zhang Guorong, he is far from being amazing in "Farewell My Concubine", with Li Tang's shallow understanding of the Chinese revolution, I feel that he does not play like a real revolutionary, but more like a young master in distress.
The only thing that impressed him was the actor who played Mei Ting's father, for which Li Tang also deliberately wrote down the actor's name - Tao Zeru.
It's just that no matter whether he plays "Shanghai Chronicle" or "Blood Romance" starring Mei Ting and Zhang Guorong, there is a common feature that he doesn't understand.
He especially couldn't understand why an American always appeared in these two films reflecting the Chinese revolution.
This American has deep sympathy for China at that time, and then appears as a superior or savior to help the protagonist.
