I Miss You - Chapter 33

Two days later, Qing Cheng saw the list of entries and repertoire for the preliminary contest of the Kunqu Opera version of “Dream of Red Mansions” from the second uncle.

The first page on the information is the Baoyu Group.

She intuitively searched for the Baizhou Kunqu Opera Troupe, and then saw three names under the group’s name: Su Po, Shen Jialuo, and Zhao Nan.

Zhao Nan… she suddenly remembered the brief conversation with him that afternoon. It seems that he really signed up.

So, Qingcheng looked down carefully at their repertoire.

Super chose “The Story of the Jade Hairpin? Stealing Poems” that he had carefully polished during this period of time, while Shen Jiazheng challenged “The Story of The West Tower? Playing Notes”. It may be the time when he participated in “The Story of the West Tower”. Trained by the instructor together.

As for Zhao Nan, she discovered that the repertoire he was participating in turned out to be “Eternal Life Palace? Crying Image”.

“Second Uncle, Tang Minghuang in “Eternal Life Palace” is not a niche, right?” Qing Orange asked suspiciously.

“You mean Zhao Nan, I also noticed him.” Xu Ershu said slowly, “The role of Emperor Ming Emperor in Kunqu Opera belongs to the big official student. And the big official student is included in the big category of Xiaosheng. Yes. Zhao Nan’s job is a painted face. It’s technically difficult to be a Xiaosheng, but it’s not impossible. And based on his special situation, his personal attention will be relatively high. Zhao Nanxuan “Cry Tang Minghuang in “Like” is a very smart choice as the premiere.”

Qingcheng heard half-understood: “How to say?”

“Because from the technical point of view, Kunqu opera xiaosheng uses a combination of true and false voices to sing, but the proportion of the real voice and the transition between true and false voices of official students is higher than that of other families of xiaosheng, and the resonance is very strong. It embodies a kind of generous and heavy temperament, and has a surprising advantage for a painted face actor like Zhao Nan who originally has a high requirement for voice conditions. If the preliminary appearance is successful, it will be of great help to his popularity. Like Super and Yan Yan in Haishi, they were originally the people who received much attention in the niche, so when they debut in the preliminary round, they will not give the judges and fans as big surprises as Zhao Nan.”

“Oh, I understand.” Qingcheng wrote a few notes in the memo.

Director Xu added: “This time, Yan Yan also took a lot of thought. He chose “A Commentary on the Snow” to play Lu Mengzheng. This is a poor student. There is a saying in the industry that a person who learns from a small student, finally I went to learn the poor students. I didn’t want to learn to slip first, so I played the chic and elegant young boys. So Yan Yan chose the poor students to perform in the preliminary contest, and compared his own skills. It’s ingenious.”

At the end of the talk, Director Xu didn’t forget to point to Super: “Super was chosen quite well.”

“Isn’t it?” Qing Orange’s gaze fell back to Super’s name.

Director Xu smiled and said: “Anytime, anyone who can concentrate on the play, be peaceful in everything, and not be disturbed by the outside world will not suffer.”

“Also…”

After Qingcheng came out of the second uncle’s office, he saw Super was standing by the small pond feeding the few goldfish. He turned his back to her, probably because he hadn’t changed his clothes just after the scene, and he was still a little sweaty behind him. She was going to the front yard, she would surely alarm him, which made her hesitate.

“It’s dinner!” someone shouted from the front yard.

Seeing that Su Po was still standing still, Qing Orange walked over and asked casually, “Boss Su, aren’t you going to eat?”

Super turned his head and smiled at her: “Take a rest and go again.”

Qingcheng quickly walked a few steps, bypassing him: “Then I will pass.”

“it is good.”

When Qingcheng walked to the doorway, she looked back. When she came to the front yard, she stopped Xiao Zhao who was passing by her and asked him to help move a stool to the small pond.

Xiao Zhao is not clear, so: “Why?”

Qingcheng said: “Ms. Su is feeding the goldfish. Let him sit and feed. The actors and teachers are very hard in rehearsal.”

Xiao Zhao felt that she was really attentive, and quickly said, “I understand.”

“Wait, don’t say I let you move-I’m afraid someone will gossip again.”

Xiao Zhao smiled and said, “Understood.”

After Qing Cheng explained the matter, she left the matter behind and went to find Tong Anzhi.

In the next few days, time flies quickly, because everyone is too busy to score and lose skills. The more “The Story of the Jade Hairpin” goes to the back, the more it needs to be refined, and Su Po and Tong Anzhi have to prepare for the selection of “A Dream of Red Mansions”.

Director Xu is also not easy, because he is a half-time monk doing Kunqu opera, he is a tutor while learning, and he always strives for perfection, and he also participates in the “Dream of Red Mansions”, and is often too busy. As a follower, Qingcheng helped to share a lot of burdens. She didn’t need Director Xu to go there personally, so she was going to listen in, so she ran around for a few days.

Occasionally, when Qingcheng was in the garden, Super was usually on the stage, and when he was off to rest, she often went to work on other things, and the two hardly said anything.

In the last week, Super and Tong Anzhi temporarily returned to the group to practice for the preliminary repertoire.

Qingcheng had time to rest for a day, and because of the good weather, he accompanied Mrs. Xu to plant flowers and grass at home.

In the autumn yard, the trees withered and the grass was withered. Fortunately, the old lady Xu ordered some potted flowers in the morning. Once they were put on, the whole yard immediately became lively. In addition, the green bamboo on the wall, the trail paved with pebbles on the ground, and the stone lamps on both sides of the trail make it very suitable for people to stay in it.

“Orange, I haven’t heard you play the violin for a long time. Grandma’s ears are a little itchy.” After finishing a pot of orchids, Grandma Xu felt a little tired, so she sat down on the stone bench next to her.

“Okay, I’ll give you a paragraph.” Qingcheng put down the flower scissors in his hand and ran into the house.

When she came out again, she held something similar to Hu Qin in her arms. It’s just bigger than the ordinary Huqin. The resonance box is made of coconut shell and paulownia wood. The shaft is very long, nearly one meter in length. There is a “thin leg” under the piano.

Qingcheng sat down, clamped the “thin legs” of the piano with her legs, and pulled up. The melodious voice surrounds the flowers and trees in the yard and spreads to the outside of the yard…

Old Mrs. Xu listened intently, and when the last ending disappeared, she sighed leisurely: “After the old sister passed away, you don’t practice hard. I rarely hear it.”

On the day of “Red Mansion Preliminary”, there was a big sun early in the morning. The morning sun in autumn, without the heat of summer, shines on the body warmly, making people feel very comfortable. Qingcheng went to the live broadcast center after lunch with his second uncle. As soon as Director Xu arrived, he met with the other judges, and Qing Cheng waited for him in the rest area. After that, actors came in one after another, and soon she saw Su Po, as well as Tong Anzhi, Shen Jialuo and Zhao Nan.

“Xu backstage, come, let me hug my thighs first.” Tong Anzhi smiled and leaned forward to Qingcheng and said, “Seeking unspoken rules.”

Qingcheng raised both hands, and saw that she had a bag made by Xu in one hand and a navy blue thermos in her hand, and said, “Look at a servant like me, what power can I have?”

Tong Anzhi was amused by her “a chicken in her left hand and a duck in her right”.

Qingcheng said: “Go and prepare, I will cheer for you!”

Zhao Nan smiled upon hearing the words and said “Thank you.” Tong Anzhi and Shen Jiajue also expressed their gratitude. Only Super lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this time, a staff member came in and said, “Teachers, the dressing room is ready, please follow me!”

The actors followed the staff to the backstage.

Super fell at the end, and when he walked to Qingcheng, he leaned over calmly and said softly, “Thank you, I will cheer.”

The two hadn’t had such close contact for many days, and Qing Cheng found that his face seemed to be a little clearer than before.

The live broadcast platform made this role selection into a special program-because the Kunqu Opera version of “Dream of Red Mansions” project has received great attention from relevant departments, the live broadcast platform has arranged the most conspicuous promotion position for it, plus the previous paper media And the Internet media spare no effort to promote, there are already many curious “meat-eating people” waiting to see it. According to the information released, the Kunqu Opera “Red Mansion Casting” is divided into three competitions: preliminary, semifinal and final.

There was basically no suspense about the results of the preliminary rounds, and all the seeded players advanced.

If you must choose the biggest winner of the preliminary round, it is Zhao Nan.

A young actor with a face that few Kun fans know about, not only got a full vote from the judges, but also became popular online. His facial features are three-dimensional and cold, with his own unique temperament. In the eyes of young people, especially those of the Appearance Association, Zhao Nan is another stream of Kunqu opera that is comparable to the small fresh meat of the film and television industry after Su Po and Yan Yan.

In addition to Zhao Nan’s news that has attracted much attention, the comparison between Super and Yan Yan has once again been brought up-because the two are often brought out for comparison, causing fans to often fudge. Some big Vs in this circle are also happy to add fuel to the fire, and write the relationship between the two of them tense.

But overall, the ratings of the program and the response from all walks of life are much better than expected. Because of the high appearance of the actors, it also attracted many young people who were not interested in Kunqu opera to join the audience. This is also the original intention of the leaders to support the cooperation and webcast of the troupe-to promote the country’s traditional culture to the majority of young people.

When Super walked out of the building, he saw the lights outside the building were brightly lit, and people from all walks of life gathered together in greetings. He looked around, under a big tree at an oblique corner, and saw Zhao Nan and Qingcheng, his brows frowned.

At this time, the person standing next to him was Yan Yan, who was said to be “comparable to him” on the Internet. He followed Super’s sight and saw Zhao Nan talking to a girl who was almost Turning his back to him, he couldn’t see his face, and he only felt slender: “Hey, I haven’t seen you for half a year, so this kid Zhao Nan has a girlfriend?”

“No.”

“what?”

“It’s not his girlfriend.” He stepped forward and walked over, but the two soon separated from each other.

Yan Yan ran two steps to catch up and glanced at him strangely: “No, it’s not, why are you talking so serious? And walking so fast, really.”

Super glanced at Qingcheng’s back: “Didn’t you say you were starving to death? Let’s go.” After speaking, he turned and walked towards his car.

“Okay, go for a walk, go to the string, want to die our food stall in Baizhou.”

Therefore, just as netizens are making up for this pair of Kunqu opera niche players to fight for their roles, the masters are taking them to the string.

On Qingcheng’s side, Zhao Nan stopped her as soon as she came out before. At that time, she was scanning the online comments on the preliminary contest.

“Am I acting okay?”

She looked up and saw that it was Zhao Nan. Thinking of the unanimous praise of him on the Internet, she nodded and said, “Well, very good. I have worked hard today.”

“Thank you for the affirmation. I will fight for the next game better.” Zhao Nan said not hurriedly, but he was quite confident to hear it.

“…Then I’ll wait and see.” Qing Orange raised the corner of her mouth politely. At this time, the second uncle’s phone called, and she was probably looking for her, so she said “Then I’m leaving” and said goodbye to Zhao Nan.

Qing Cheng vaguely felt that Zhao Nan’s attitude towards her seemed a little more sincere than at the beginning. At least, the smile doesn’t look like acting.

Super drove out of the park. Outside is a avenue with a strong literary atmosphere, and the trees on both sides of the road are covered with neon lights.

Yan Yan shut down Weibo and said: “Some people say that I left Baizhou because of you and went to the sea market in anger. Hahaha, uncle, since you made me so miserable, my consumption during this time in the sea market, Are you all wrapped up?”

Because of Su Po’s last name, some fans on the Internet would call him “Su Su”. After Yan Yan saw it, he said, “What Su Su, I think the uncle is about the same.” Later, he occasionally called Su Su jokingly.

Super said: “Your uncle reminds me of Pan Jinlian, who is played by Tong Anzhi today.”

“You less take advantage of me.” Yan Yan said again, “You said that our brothers didn’t interact with each other on the Internet. Why do people spare no effort to hack our relationship? It feels a bit absurd.”

Super didn’t feel strange at all: “This is drama like life, life like drama, isn’t it?”

“It makes sense.”

After the car drove for a while, it stopped at a traffic light. Super looked at the pedestrians outside in a hurry, as if they were all in a hurry. He asked where he was going, “Old Yan, have you chased people? ?”

Yan Yan was taken aback, and said, “No, people chased me.”

Super said: “Fate is good.”

Yan Yan thought it was funny: “Aren’t you?”

He was silent for a while before replying: “No.”

After pondering these words, Yan Yan felt that some big news had been dug up: “Who? Come, come and listen.”

At this time, the red light turned green, Su Po released the brake and stepped on the accelerator. The car moved forward slowly. He whispered a name: “Mu Mu.”

Yan Yan was taken aback: “What kind of wood?”

“A few years ago…” Super thought for a while, and felt that he didn’t know where to start.

“Years ago?”

“More than eight years ago.”

The expression on Yan Yan’s face instantly turned into disbelief: “I said how do you insulate you from love? So you are playing secret love? You haven’t made it for eight years?”

Super frowned: “No.” He regretted mentioning this topic with others, so he turned on the radio in the car and said no more.

But Yan Yan was obviously intrigued: “No? It’s not a secret love? That’s just asking for nothing? Brother, where is there no fragrance in the end of the world, why just love a flower.”

Super was noncommittal to those speculations, but returned to Yan Yan’s last sentence: “Everyone has his own ambition.”

After a while, Yan Yan said again: “No, didn’t you when you were in the theater school eight years ago? Why don’t I remember when you were in a bad state?”

Super casually threw a sentence: “I have good acting skills.”
