Chapter 264: Welcome to Dongmo Village

Lunch is simple, rice-based, supplemented by miso soup and vegetables such as kimchi and cold greens, but fortunately there is also a dish of grilled fish with a little egg yolk on top, which is sweet and delicious.

"Five judges...... Three are Japanese, Yukio Ninagawa, are you familiar with them? Teacher Zhu Tong doesn't seem to care about drama at all when he comes over this time, but only cares about awards, "Tiffany Culp of Germany, this lady is also very famous......

The name Yukio Ninagawa, Jiang Xun is like thunder.

He is one of Japan's leading theater directors, and in Japan, he is known as the "Three Heroes of Japanese Theater" along with Tadashi Suzuki and Keita Asari; Overseas, he has been active on the international stage with adaptations of Shakespearean plays and Greek tragedies, opening up a unique path for the eclectic theatrical aesthetics, so he is known as "the Ninagawa of the world".

"If there are a thousand young people sitting in the audience, they will hold a thousand sharp blades in their hands.

I think I've got to build a stage that's good enough to fight a thousand blades.

That's my mission. ”

Jiang Xun recited the old gentleman's famous words in a deep voice, and it was during his work in the Young Pioneer Underground Theater Troupe that a young man held a folding knife against his abdomen and questioned the meaning of the work.

This experience has become a mantra that has always haunted Yukio Ninagawa in his later works, constantly reminding him to reflect on himself, break through his limitations, and spare no effort for the drama.

"Takarazuka Music School...... Also coming. Chen Xiaoyi interjected beside him.

The musicals of this music school are well-known in Japan, and Jiang Xun is really interested, he is a master, a pure master, and he is interested in the students in it...... Well, Yuki Amami likes it.

"If you like it, you can watch their plays......" He Bing made up his mind, no matter what drama in any country, he really wanted to watch a performance at Takarazuka Music School first.

But in the past few days, Zhu Tong has taken Jiang Xun and Xu Fan to shuttle between Ikebukuro and Shimobeize...... Today, in a private school theater in Ikebukuro, a play from South Korea is being staged.

"Teacher, can you watch it?" The discipline training when he came made Xu Fan very vigilant, China has not established diplomatic relations with South Korea, is it a violation of discipline to watch the performance of such a country?

Zhu Tong couldn't make up his mind for a while, but the play staged today is another war-themed drama in all the plays.

"If you don't say it, I don't say it, who knows." Jiang Xun said with a smile, he knew that in two years, the two countries would establish diplomatic relations, and by that time, there would be a lot of Koreans in Qindao.

"Well, remember, don't slip out." Zhu Tongqian told him that in fact, the discipline of foreign affairs now is much more relaxed than in the 80s, and it really doesn't matter if you watch a drama.

When they entered, the theater had already started, and the volunteers thoughtfully prepared the script in Chinese and told them which part of the performance had been performed.

The time chosen for this drama was during the Korean War, in a remote mountain village called "Dongmo" near Gangwon Province.

The people there live in isolation from the outside world and live in a self-sufficient paradise, unaware of the war that is taking place outside.

Pyo-hyun Chul, a deserter from the Korean national army, was so disgusted with war that he even thought of committing suicide. Fortunately, Moon Sang-sang, a timid hygienist who was left behind, saw that Pyo-hyun Chul-jae did not commit suicide.

They walked together and came to Dongmo Village.

At the same time, the captain of the Korean People's Army, Ri Xiuhua, and the veteran Zhang Rongxi, as well as the junior soldier Xu Zeji, also came to Dongmo Village.

And before that, because of the plane crash, the American pilot Captain Smith also came to Dongmo Village.

When the soldiers of the two armies met, the saber rattling, the soldiers of the North Korean army took grenades and prepared to detonate them because there were no bullets in their guns, and the soldiers of the South Korean army pointed their guns at them.

In the midst of them is a group of simple villagers.

The villagers thought they were performing some kind of ritual and giggled in the middle.

After a night of confrontation, Moon Sangsang detonated a grenade because he was so sleepy. The grenade was thrown into the granary not far away, and as a result, the corn in the granary turned into popcorn.

The fragrant popcorn really fell from the sky, and Jiang Xun sitting in the audience could feel the smell of caramel.

This is really the most beautiful scene on the drama stage!

"Their performances were so good." Xu Fan's eyes were a little moist, the first half of the drama made people laugh through their stomachs, and the second half of the drama made people cry, which really touched people's hearts.

The confrontation between the two sides gradually calmed down, and there was no aggression against each other, but there was still great hostility.

Once, a wild boar invaded the villagers. North Korean soldiers and American Smith worked together to subdue the wild boar. In the evening, everyone ate wild boar meat together, and the hostility slowly disappeared.

Under the beautiful picture, the officers and soldiers of North and South Korea began to slowly close the distance. One morning, the uniforms of different colors and countries were neatly sunburned, waving and swaying happily in the wind.

Taking off the military uniform, changing into civilian clothes, and going to the farmland together is an idyllic plot.

"This book is really solid." Teacher Zhu Tong was moved, but he also raised his vigilance, this book is on par with Jiang Xun's book, or it is inferior to Jiang Xun's book in the excavation of human nature, but it is better than it in dramatic conflict and dramatic vision.

……

Good is always fleeting.

The U.S. military searched everywhere for news of the missing Captain Smith and the transport plane, and they even began to send airborne troops to infiltrate Dongmo Village.

At this time, several soldiers had completely eliminated the estrangement and got along well with the villagers of Dongmo Village.

Misfortune still happened, unwilling to betray the six soldiers, the villagers of Dongmo Village were brutally violently attacked by American and South Korean soldiers, and the innocent village girl was also unfortunately murdered.

The six "lost" sergeants were furious, and then they finally found a reason to take up arms and fight again, not for any nihilistic faith, but to protect the last pure land of this war!

Bidding farewell to the fathers and villagers of Dongmo Village, they launched a final counterattack against the US Air Force bombing team.

Zhu Tong stopped talking, and in the audience, his hands were held tightly.

Jiang Xun's teeth were also gritted, this is also the most tragic scene in the whole play, the battle to the end, in the raging war, several soldiers snuggled together, with a smile on their faces, this is a smile that even the god of death dares to despise.

South Korean officers, who usually do not smile, can finally say goodbye to the war with a smile.

"This officer is acting really well." He said to himself in his heart that he had never seen such a good young theater actor.

"Xunzi, this crazy girl, she acted so well......" As soon as Jiang Xun turned around, Xu Fan burst into tears.

In these beautiful scenes, the mad girl who symbolizes innocence, her smile may not be the most beautiful, but it must be the purest.

So in that rain, the little soldier gave her his cherished national flag to wipe the rain; Her death became the greatest indictment of the war.

"It's a good show." Zhu Tong finally spoke

"Xunzi, Fanzi, you have to work hard." ”

The actors on the stage were closing the curtain, the audience stood up, and many Japanese university students and the audience were full of pain, and applause roared like thunder in this small theater.

"Can we go backstage and talk to the actors?" Jiang Xun stood up suddenly, Zhu Tong thought about it, turned his head away, he didn't seem to hear Jiang Xun's words, "Well, I'll take a walk around this school......"
