Chapter 4: A Romantic Tale

The matchmaker is a Xun school Hua Dan play.

The role of "matchmaker" attaches equal importance to singing, reading, doing, and dancing, and has strict requirements for basic skills such as waist skills, leg skills, and round fields.

Director Xia Chun asked Jiang Xun to sing the most famous piece of Xipi flowing water in the play, "Tell Zhang Sheng to hide under the chessboard", this is a performance of the matchmaker holding the chessboard to cover Zhang Sheng's body and running around the field, the rhythm is cheerful, the words are catchy, and I never get tired of listening to it.

"Mr. Zhang, you have to listen to my orders honestly."

With a simple recitation, Jiang Xun was already a corner on the stage, and he casually took the hard-shell folder that Director Xia Chun put aside, and it was a chessboard.

"Hide Zhang Sheng under the chessboard, I will walk and you will climb step by step......"

Wow –

Director Xia Chun's fingers unconsciously tapped lightly on the back of the chair, he loved Peking Opera, in the fifties, the actors of Renyi were fascinated by the Qiu School, and he later came into contact with the Mei School, and he was no stranger to the Xun School.

He only listened to this sentence, and felt that Jiang Xun's singing voice was lively and pretty, and the words were right, Zhang Sheng of the Xun School did not pronounce it as Zhang Sheng, but as "Zhang Shen", and "I" did not read me, but "wipe".

The lyrics of this play are also right, when this word is sung, it is not good to speak flat, and it is not possible to live softly, it has to be like eating fried beans, the words are clear!

Hey, this kaftan is really the right one!

He looked at Jiang Xun dressed in a long robe, the broken steps when he ran the round, the fluttering water sleeves during the chessboard dance, and his body was light and pretty, which was a bit of Xunpai bees and butterflies dancing all over the stage.

This long shirt is on him, this is the Tang Maochang who is obsessed with learning drama!

Director Xia Chun's imagination of Tang Maochang in his mind is clearer, and it is clear based on Jiang Xun.

Well, an actor has to have a lot of things in his stomach, and he has to have a belly of good goods in order to act like anything!

"Don't be afraid, follow the little matchmaker and see her......"

Smack-

The people on the side were stunned, Director Xia Chun was also stunned, and Jiang Xun was also stunned, he dropped the chain at the critical moment, and when he turned around, the "chessboard" in his hand was not firmly controlled, and he fell on his feet.

This turn is actually a reference to Wusheng's "Harrier Turnover", the hands, eyes, body, law, and steps are coordinated, Jiang Xun's parents are both Peking Opera actors, he has skills, but this folder is not a boxy chessboard after all, this time, I missed.

"Don't be afraid, follow the little matchmaker and see her......"

Jiang Xun didn't panic, as soon as he raised his feet, the chessboard flew back into his hand.

Wow –

This is the kung fu of picking a gun!

So he walked to Director Xia Chun's side, and the two glanced at each other, this young man is really from a Peking Opera family.

Don't mess up!

"It's a good seedling." So he whispered.

If you can't keep it on the stage of the drama, there will be accidents, and if you save the scene in danger, the play can continue to perform, just rush to this calm, this young man is good!

"It's a romantic story, don't alarm her by listening to the order."

Jiang Xun didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two deans, he made a joke and won the credit!

Then he quietly looked at the two directors of the courtyard, both of whom were masters of the theater world, but one was an actor and the other was a director.

So he nodded, this young man sang cleanly, his tone was refreshing, his fingering was delicate, and his steps were light, "I don't look like a boy in you." ”

"My mother raised me as a girl since I was a child." Jiang Xun replied helplessly, so he chose the profession of martial arts later.

It's just for "a shame before the snow"!

Hah-

So Zhi and Xia Chun both laughed,

The two of them looked at Jiang Xun wearing a long robe, standing with his hands down, the long shirt flowing lightly, and a young master of the Republic of China stood in front of him.

"I think, it's okay for you to sing, read, compose and play, but it's still a lot worse than other Peking Opera actors...... so Zhi said, and he laughed himself after speaking, this kid's basic skills in Peking Opera are not bad.

"That's right," Jiang Xun also smiled, "Isn't this young master Tang Maochang just a half-ass, if he sings well, he will have become a corner." ”

Hah-

So Zhi and Xia Chun laughed again, but, as Jiang Xun said, Tang Maochang is really such a character, he studied drama as an adult, and he didn't learn to look like him.

"You have to practice Peking Opera well, and when we perform in the future, we don't have to record, and when we get to the stage, everything is real, and we have to sing it ourselves." Xia Chun directed.

"So, you're going to use me?" Jiang Xun was overjoyed.

"I didn't say it, I just said it on stage." Director Xia Chun is a little helpless, this kid has a very good ability to climb up.

"You go to the cafeteria to eat first, and then go back to school after eating," Director Xia raised his hand to look at his watch, it was past twelve o'clock, and the food was cold, "Go ahead." ”

Looking at Jiang Xun's back, he was a little difficult, it was not that he wanted to replace Xiu Zongdi with Jiang Xun, a role does not only look at how well he sings in Peking Opera, not to mention that Lao Xiu is also learning Peking Opera and has been practicing.

The difficulty for him is that he likes this little sapling very much, he is smart, he is willing to work hard, and he has a good sense of stage, so he wants this young man to hone and hone his skills, give him a chance, and let him grow.

This may be the heart of love.

But there is no character in front of him who can give it to him!

"I'm embarrassed ......"

As soon as he said a word, he took the words over, "What's so embarrassing about this, this play has two groups, Group A is the official actors, Group B is the young actors, Group A and Group B rehearse together, learn together, and learn from each other's strengths......"

There is an AB role in the drama, but now for Jiang Xun, he proposed to set up a B group, so that every role has a B role, of course, he also means to train young actors, and if Group B is well performed, there will be a chance to go on stage in the future.

"Well, that's it." Director Xia Chun grabbed So Zhi's hand, now it's good, you can rehearse and train soldiers, the best of both worlds.

"This kid, I heard that the screening period has not yet passed...... so he said again. In the cadet class, you can only stay after the screening period, and if you can't stay, you have to leave, re-enter the society, and go back where you came from.

"I'm not worried about this," Xia Chun said, "I follow the old actor all day long, can I just do it, I see, this kid has spirituality, is very smart, this meter eight tall, cultivate it well, it will be the pillar of the courtyard in the future." ”

So, Zheng Rong, Lantian Ye...... Any of these old actors are more than 1.8 meters tall, and if the actors recruited are short, the stage of talent must be one size smaller.

"Well," said the two of them as they walked towards the cafeteria, and then they sighed a little, "this young man, the voice is good." ”

Jiang Xun's voice is charming and engaging, delicate and contains a hint of vicissitudes, revealing an understanding and interpretation of life.

"I don't understand, this child, at such a young age, where does the sense of vicissitudes come from!"

……

Time has passed, because Director Xia Chun did not give an answer on the spot, seeing that there is still a week to go, this week, Jiang Xun ran to Renyi if he had nothing to do.

In Renyi, he knows people, but there are not many people who know him, except for a few teachers who have taught them Renyi, he can't ask anything every time he comes.

On this day, he turned left and right and turned to the props workshop behind the Capital Theater, where the workshop was full of dust and the masters were making ducks.

It's a duck, it's a real duck, it's all a prop.

Such props are often modeled with benzene boards, then finely carved with arts and crafts knives, coated with white latex on the outside, wrapped in gauze, and finally colored with acrylic paints......

Coincidentally, a duck was crushed, Jiang Xun didn't speak, snatched the arts and crafts knife in the master's hand, carefully peeled off the gauze pasted with white latex, and then slowly sanded off the white latex with sandpaper......

"Jiang Xun!"

Someone in the courtyard could finally remember his name.

Jiang Xun looked up and saw that Deputy Director Gu Wei was standing in front of him.

Director Gu Wei actually saw him early and guessed what he wanted to do, "The list of actors is still approved by the academy in the end, and Dean Cao Yu also has to look at it." ”

Seeing that he said that he broke his mind, Jiang Xun smiled, "Director Gu, I don't have anything else, just come and take a look, I see that there are not many people in the theater, and the actors still have to do the work of scene notes, lighting, and curtain calls, I thought to myself, see what I can help, no matter what I do, it is a learning ...... for me."

Well.

Gu Wei smiled, he looked at the duck in Jiang Xun's hand, and then looked at the dust on his face, this kid is not hypocritical, he is not a college student who thinks he is the pride of the sky!

"Let's take a break, get some fresh air, and have lunch...... Xiao Jiang, go to the canteen at noon, make dumplings today! Director Gu Wei took the initiative to invite.

The first floor of the world is about to open a row, so he was happy, and specially instructed the canteen to make dumplings and mutton-filled dumplings.

Looking at Jiang Xun taking a bite of dumplings, Deputy Director Gu Wei smiled, "After eating, go back to school and wait for news, believe me, everyone has a rod and scale in their hearts." ”

The two talked, so Zhi and Xia Chun also left.

As soon as the two of them entered the cafeteria, the master smiled and rubbed his apron with his hand and greeted him, "Yu Yuan, Xia Yuan, take a look, that," he pointed to Jiang Xun who was sitting at the table, "In just a while, I have eaten three plates of dumplings." ”

"Three sets? That's a lot of food! "So it was fun.

"Yes, look, I've eaten three plates, I'm not full, I'm still eating, what kind of young man is this, and I'm going to eat Renyi yellow again." The master also made a joke.

"Wrap it up after eating, let him eat enough," he laughed, "and this child is the time to eat." ”

Director Xia Chun looked at Jiang Xun carefully, this dumpling was eaten in a mouthful of garlic, and it was so fragrant, the strength of the eldest young master a few days ago was gone.

He smiled, "Old Yu, look, I originally played the eldest young master, and a meal of mutton dumplings revealed its original form!" ”
