After the lights came back on, the first act of the play officially began. Fang Lin and the female student Chen Qiushui, who was holding a book, walked side by side, laughing and chatting.
This scene went very smoothly during rehearsals because it was not difficult in itself. Young men and women who have friendship with each other walk side by side and talk about literature and ideals. Not to mention in TV dramas, there are many scenes in reality... Such a close-to-life scene makes me happy
It’s no problem for students who are currently studying at the Drama School to perform.
But something went wrong during this performance.
It’s not something as shocking as forgetting the words or turning around, and even the audience may not be able to understand it because they are a little farther away, but the instructors can see it clearly——
Jin He was nervous, and because she was nervous, it also affected Ren Yanfei to some extent.
Originally, this scene was supposed to reflect the romance of the Republic of China, the love affair between a talented female student and a wealthy young man who also received higher education. The main focus at the beginning was sweetness, and the explosive scene between them was in the third act, when Huahonger died.
Only then will the conflict between the two be revealed.
But this beginning is unnatural.
Maybe it was the huge pressure brought about by Xu Mi's singing during the rehearsal, which made the two actors on the same stage, especially Jin He who took the initiative to choose the role of the female student, a little confused.
She fell into doubts about the character again, thinking that although Chen Qiushui was the heroine in the original movie, this episode was clearly Hua Hong'er's highlight moment.
I have doubts about the role, have distracting thoughts, and desperately want to perform better during the performance, but the result is that I exert too much force.
What does it lead to?
As a result, the audience couldn't get into the play. You were talking about the lines. What I was thinking was, you were talking about the lines, and the viewers couldn't get into the plot. The three instructors came to this scene with great expectations. After watching a short section, they had already transitioned to
Expressionless.
Especially the C position on the mentorship table - Guo Kaicheng, the film director who has been filming for more than 30 years and has won numerous awards. Close-up shots were focused on him more than once.
There were only four words on his face: boring.
It wasn't until after this scene that the lights on the stage were dimmed and turned on again in the afternoon, and Hua Hong'er played by Xu Mi appeared, that the instructor's seat became more energetic.
Hua Honger appeared in front of the dressing table. The person was sitting and had already dressed up.
She made an appointment with Fang Lin to meet here. A little time had passed, but Fang Lin hadn't come yet because he had gone to meet Chen Qiu Shui a little earlier, so there was a delay. Hua Hong'er sat there quietly waiting for him, and she looked in the mirror several times.
Putting on her best face, she wanted to smile. She had the most beautiful smile, but Fang Lin's change of heart and lateness made her unable to smile.
Fortunately, just when her heart dropped to its lowest point, someone came.
When she heard the door opening, Hua Hong'er showed her first smile and turned back to look in the direction of the door.
This is also the first face the character gives to the audience.
A bit amazing.
Hua Hong'er's smile didn't last three seconds. When Fang Lin saw her like this, he felt confused and impatient: "What's the matter with you dressing up like this?"
Hua Hong'er lowered her eyes, raised them again, and said with a smile: "I remembered that when I first saw you, you acted like this."
The character played by Xu Mi is completely trapped in the good times of the past, recalling a lot of the past of the two of them. Speaking of her original mood of leaving everything behind and going with someone else, the last sentence is: "Even if you still think about it today,
I have changed it, and I have no regrets. Fang Wu Shao, please listen to me singing one more time, we should all get together and part ways with a beginning and an end."
At this time, the entire audience including Fang Lin was involved in the show.
The blush in their eyes is like a touch of sunset on the horizon, which is the last touch of golden color on the horizon that has turned dark. It looks both gorgeous and extravagant.
She burst out with astonishing beauty that left people stunned and heartbroken at the same time.
Everyone knows how short-lived this beauty is. Soon the Golden Crow will fall below the horizon, and the sunset will disappear.
I can't keep her, I can't catch her, I can only watch her burn this last bit of beauty.
Hua Hong'er picked up the water glass she placed on the dressing table, took a sip to moisten her throat, and then sang delicately and softly just like she did when she first met Fang Lin.
That's her best show.
Her singing is as beautiful as ever.
Fang Lin felt his heart beating very fast. He remembered the raging love at that time. He remembered that he had been truly obsessed with this woman, and he remembered the feeling.
Finally at this moment, Fang Lin forgot about the female student Chen Qiushui.
Hua Hong'er also finished singing the last line she wanted to sing, blood overflowed from her mouth, and she died of poison.
Before the play was over, the audience was already sobbing.
Not to mention the audience, even the instructors who regard directing, filming and watching movies as their profession were very touched, and their eyes were all red.
Seeing that Fang Lin had snubbed Hua Hong'er because of Chen Qiu Shui's appearance earlier, forcing this fierce woman to go to a dead end. Later, because of Hua Hong'er's death, he fell into regret and self-blame and other emotions, and had a conflict and quarrel with Chen Qiu Shui, and finally gave up.
He failed this female student who also loved him... By the end of the play, the audience was already furious, and they were still crying and angry at the same time.
After the entire three-act play was completed and the actors returned to the stage, the audience spontaneously stood up and gave them a half-minute round of applause to thank them.
After the applause stopped, the host asked the three actors to introduce themselves. After a brief introduction, it was time to comment on the instructors, which is the most favorite part of the audience watching this show.
Director Guo Kaicheng was pushed to the first place.
Director Guo did have a lot to say, and he did not refuse, but came right to the point: "I have heard several other friends in the industry mention Xu Mi before, and their evaluation was - she is a very smart actress.
When I watch dramas, I only pick out certain themes, not everything, but I can’t stand the fact that people are talking about her in my ears every day. To be honest, I first went to see her in that drama just to find fault.
Do you all have that kind of mentality?
You tell me how good she is every day, but I want to see how good she is.
Hey! Looking at this, I can’t get out of the trap. Those at home asked me how I was doing? Did they see something? Why is this show so popular?
I said the casting was good, this actress is very good at acting.
They also laughed at me, saying that theater critics all said that Xu Mi’s acting skills were just above the passing level, and that she was a good person because she was popular with the audience. You thought she was good at acting, but you were also a great director.
I say, no one can raise the average ratings of a TV series with dozens of episodes to above 2.0 by relying on simple audience connections. I have to tell my audience friends, and even some young people in the entertainment industry, not to put the cart before the horse and compare it to dazzling
Skills are more important than moving people with emotion. It is more important for the audience to understand your role than for the audience to think that you are a very good actor.
I think what Xu Mi presents is a high-end performance, which is complex yet simple, returning to nature.
What's so difficult about playing a role?
The hard part is getting the audience to love it.
This kind of actor who can make the audience cry and laugh for her in just a short walk is the most powerful in my opinion. If I want to film, I have to find this kind of person..."
As soon as Director Guo spoke, the host didn't know how to end the conversation. Fortunately, the recommender of the show was senior: "That's it. Director Guo, let's not make it look like a large-scale star-chasing scene. Please just comment on what you just said."
.”
The audience burst into laughter.
Someone else shouted: "Let Director Guo speak, we love to hear it."
Director Guo Kaicheng turned around and thanked the audience for their support and calmed down: "I really can't finish it by myself. I have to leave some words for the two people behind me. Let me go back to the play. I think today's
The version of "Hong'er" is the most interesting one I have seen outside of the original work. Actress Xu Mi fully demonstrated the charm of the character. Especially after Fang Wushao came, her reaction and the lines she said made me feel really distressed.
There is not a single word in this entire paragraph about seeking death and survival, but I believe the audience can detect her desire to die, and they should all have that helpless feeling that the sunset is about to dissipate and you can't keep it no matter what. It's very artistic and beautiful."
In the past, there were some performances where the instructor was so hyped that the audience was confused. Even though they thought the performance was good, they could never quite understand what the instructor said.
This time it was different. The audience all understood what Director Guo wanted to express, and felt that he was worthy of being a great director who has won awards everywhere. Unlike some people who come here and just show off some professional terms that laymen cannot understand.
Director Guo strongly confirmed that Xu Mi is taking this route now, and said that if there is a suitable role in the future, she must be hired, and he really wants to work with her once.
Xu Mi blushed when she heard this. She always felt as if she had paid a navy soldier to sit on the instructor's table.
Starting from Almighty Girlfriend, many people have praised her this year.
Director Guo is the first to do this.
Director Guo also praised the few lines she sang at the end, which old theater fans couldn't fault. It was very good. Director Guo Kaicheng talked for several minutes by himself, without even mentioning the two next to him. It was really like discovering
Conversing with Xu Mi like a treasure.
The host was clever and quickly smoothed things over: "Thank you Director Guo Kaicheng for your comments on actor Xu Mi. Let's hear what the other two instructors have to say."
After the praising party is over, it goes without saying that there will be criticism afterward.
The other two more or less pointed out the performance problems of Ren Yanfei and Jin He: "The last scene is better, but the beginning is too strong. You have to show the audience the relationship between Fang Wushao and Chen Qiushui in a short time at the beginning."
The true love between each other was the direct reason that pushed Hua Hong'er to a dead end. I'm sorry that you didn't show that feeling. I didn't see the beauty in the whole paragraph, I just felt embarrassed."
Jin He picked up the microphone and apologized: "Because it was in front of the audience, I was a little nervous when I first went on stage."
Jin He has also acted in many dramas. Of course she knows that Xu Mi is good at acting, but she is still a little unconvinced in her heart.
Because from the beginning, she felt that Xu Mi was being given preferential treatment on the set, and even thought about the possibility that they would give Xu Mi a script to rehearse in advance. Thinking of this, of course she felt that she had lost unjustly.
However, it is difficult to talk about this kind of conspiracy theory on stage.
Especially she really didn't perform well today.
If the instructor's comments had deeply touched her heart, the announcement of the votes later made her even more embarrassed. Among the 500 viewers at the scene, more than 400 voted for Xu Mi. The other two looked so pitiful.
.
To be honest, since the show has been aired, there has never been a show with such a huge disparity.
90% of the audience at the scene gave their support to the same person. This victory can be said to be absolutely overwhelming.
To be continued...
