Chapter 447 Pure
Author: I'm Red
Fortunately, the rehearsals were Pu Cunxi and Gong Lijun today. If two new players were replaced, according to the tradition of the People's Art Theater, the action of entering the field alone would probably have to be scheduled for seven or eight times.
Xu Rong has never experienced a love affair at dusk, but he has been in love and got married. It can be concluded that a man and woman who are in love with each other, whose mind is normal and whose relationship is just a little short of breaking a layer of window paper will not ignore the other's feelings.
If not, it must be that some condition in "emotional feelings" or "normal mind" is not true. This is the first reason why Xu Rong stopped Pu Cunxi and Gong Lijun's rehearsal.
The most failed performance on the stage was that the audience knew that the two were father-son relationships until their son called their father "dad". In real daily life, whether they were husband and wife, father and son, even without verbal communication, others could see it. There were also huge differences in the way couples, lovers and men and women who were about to become lovers. Even if the emotional state between husband and wife can be observed through their ways of getting along, there was no need for two people to be present at the same time. As long as one person mentioned the other, Xu Rong could judge the relationship between the other person through tone, expression, eyes and other physical movements.
Therefore, he has more or less aware of the marriage status of his peers, but he will never reveal even a word to anyone.
The second reason why he called for a stop was that the two did not solve the problem of "where to come from". In the script setting, Huang Fangwu and Yan Meiyi had just attended the funeral of Huaisheng, the director of the nursing home, which is the father of the heroine Chen Ailin. Huang Fangwu was dissatisfied with the people attending the funeral, but the funeral home would never be opened next to the nursing home. If the funeral home was opened next to the nursing home, it would be convenient to carry out business, but with the habits of Chinese elderly people, a 90% chance of dying for the funeral home in advance.
As far away from the funeral home to the nursing home, should Huang Fanwu’s dissatisfaction be mostly eliminated?
But when Pu Cunxi walked in, he forgot the distance between Huang Fangwu from the funeral home to the nursing home, that is, he forgot where he came from, so naturally it was impossible for him to know where he went.
The third problem is that neither of them brought the environment. The season is the first few days of autumn and the hottest time of the year. When entering the door on rainy and snowy days, you have to kick off the mud on the soles of your shoes and wipe the rain and snow on your body. In summer, you should also bring summer on the stage so that the audience can know at first glance, oh, this is summer.
Xu Rong has worked in a nursing home for half a month, saying that it is not long or short.
But he was very familiar with the demeanor of an elderly man. He and his grandfather depended on each other for more than 20 years. When he was a child, he often did the most was to follow his grandfather and imitate his walking posture.
In recent years, my grandfather often chatted with several elderly people in the community, played chess, and visited each other, which also led to him being very familiar with the actions of this old man. Almost as soon as he closed his eyes, dozens of elderly people had their voices, appearances, smiles, and expressions and expressions shook before him.
Ren Ming and Tang Ye, who were sitting on the side of Xu Rong, looked at him blankly. They really didn't expect Xu Rong to dare to speak so hard. Pu Cunxi and Gong Lijun are the pillars of the People's Art Theater, especially Pu Cunxi, who is not only the executive vice president, but also his nominal teacher.
How do students teach teachers to act?
Xu Rong also noticed the strange atmosphere, looked down at his left arm, and then looked at Ren Ming in confusion, and said with a serious look: "Director, why do you always pull me? What I said is just a matter of fact. I still remember when I first came to this rehearsal hall, Teacher Zhu Xu told me that as an actor, I have to watch the big things."
Ren Ming couldn't speak anymore. Before he could say anything, Xu Rong had already started acting. If he said a few more words, God knows how many plays Xu Rong has?
After a moment of silence, Pu Cunxi glanced at the camera in the corner of the rehearsal hall with a wry smile and said, "Don't just talk, come and try it."
"Jiaziyuan" is the only new drama on the 60th anniversary of the People's Art Theatre, and it is also a big drama. The elderly are busy, and they are not relaxed. They can't get rid of all kinds of big and small things. He is indeed not prepared enough in "Jiaziyuan" because from the beginning, he did not plan to star in this scene. Several old people are the protagonists.
He guessed that Xu Rong's "evaluation" was half directed at himself and half directed at Teacher Lan Tianye, because he acted according to Uncle Tianye.
Maybe I am worried that the elderly will lose their reputation for their entire lives.
Xu Rong looked at Gong Lijun who was reluctantly smiling and sighed silently.
He was not worried that Pu Cunxi would be angry. When making suggestions, he would pay attention to the methods and the suggestions were reasonable. Pu Cunxi would not only not be angry, but was very happy to accept them.
He can't say he knows this actor who has been famous for many years, but judging from her reaction, he is obviously unhappy to accept the criticism of his deputy director.
This was within his expectations. "Thunderstorm" was ridiculed by the audience for nearly ten years and finally stopped acting, but in the ten years, there was no improvement. Instead, it was believed that the audience's quality was problematic, disrespectful to actors, and disrespectful to art. It can be said that no one of the crews of "Thunderstorm" was innocent, but the responsibility was different in size. To a certain extent, Gong Lijun and Chi Xiaoqiu were in a similar situation. Chi Xiaoqiu was confined by the title of "Cheng School", while Gong Lijun was restricted by the concept of a well-known actor.
He couldn't help but think of himself. If he was thirty, forty or even older, a young man suddenly popped up and accused him of acting incorrectly, what kind of mentality would he face it with?
Thinking of this, he stood up. Since Pu Cunxi said he wanted him to try, he had neither the reason to refuse nor the need to refuse.
If he really understands it wrongly and presents it badly, he will definitely accept criticism from others humbly.
Until today, he slightly understood why Teacher Li Xuejian's level was so high. Li Xuejian became famous very early, but he always maintained a modest attitude. This attitude not only allowed him to face the flood of praise, but also accepted various objective criticisms, accusations, and reflect on himself.
The greatest meaning of humility may not be to make others feel humble.
Xu Rong first took the crutch from Pu Cunxi's hand, then walked back to the director's table, picked up the clothes on the back of the chair, hung them on his arm, and then walked to the side of the rehearsal hall, looking at Lan Yingying, who was sitting on the ground with her cheeks holding her face, and said, "Yingying, come, give me a word."
"Ah, me, am I?" Lan Yingying heard Xu Rong calling herself, pointing her index finger at the tip of her nose. Seeing Xu Rong nodding, she hurriedly stood up, "Ah, OK."
Before Lan Yingying could fully stand firm, Xu Rong had already turned around and walked forward with great strides.
Lan Yingying looked at this scene and didn't know what to do. She wasn't ready yet. Why did Xu Rong start?
At one moment, seeing Xu Rong's tendency to stop, she said as if she was blessed to her heart, "You can leave."
Lan Yingying's word "de" fell, and Xu Rong's steps stopped.
“So fast.”
Lan Yingying's "fast" exit happened to see Xu Rong and Xu Rong in the distance turned sideways, looking at herself who was still staying in the same place.
"I'm gasping for a long time."
After a second, Lan Yingying took a quick step and chased after Xu Rong.
Ren Ming and Tang Ye watched this scene in surprise. Lan Yingying was an intern and was still in the learning stage. She is currently equivalent to the mascot of the crew, looking for a festive celebration of "three generations living together".
But in the flash, her lines were just right. Her tone, expression, posture and lines formed an organic whole, and there was almost no sign of the newcomer's appearance.
They turned their gaze to Xu Rong again.
Ren Ming heard Li Liuyi and Pu Cunxi say more than once that Xu Rong had a strange characteristic, a better character that could make the same actors perform. He understood Pu Cunxi's meaning, but he just thought that some conscious "coincidence", just like "Thunderstorm" and "Home". If he had only responsibility for Mingjia and Yuan Feng and had no love, this situation could also happen.
But today, he realized that his past guess was wrong, not only wrong, but also outrageously wrong.
Seeing Lan Yingying catching up, Xu Rong turned around and walked into the middle of the stage, put her clothes and crutches on the side, loosened the tie on her neck, and said, "It's considered a relief, it's so breathless."
He said, and was about to turn around to make coffee. After three steps, he suddenly stopped, stared at the rehearsal hall with a blind eye, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Sorry, I've acted wrong."
Everyone looked at him for no reason, what was wrong?
In the room, several old men and women looked at each other subconsciously. This scene gave them a sense of déjà vu. decades ago, there was a similar actor at the People's Art Theater. He suddenly stopped as he acted, and then said in a daze: "No, right, right, right."
They didn't know what was wrong or what was wrong, but Lin Liankun firmly thought "not right". According to his statement, it was not stuck at the point.
It was exactly the same as Xu Rong at this time. This was an instinct that could divide a two-hour play into countless eight-beat shots. He knew clearly which word was the most appropriate to say when his left foot landed on the ground, and even had a sense of intuition about the actions of the same actors.
Zheng Rong looked at Xu Rong on the screen, turned to several people and said, "Did you guys notice that he is a bit like Diao Guangqin?"
Lan Tianye understood that Zheng Rong was referring to Diao Guangqian's use of "points" and said, "This child is a genius. He has only been learning the drama for three months, right?"
The "point" is similar to the appearance, but it does not have the physical movements as large as the appearance. Instead, the actor's physical movements are still at a moment, and it is also the embodiment of the character's mental state. It is most vividly reflected in the Mei School. When the Mei School actors perform, almost every action ends with a "point", but unlike the more abrupt "point" of the Mei School, Xu Rong deliberately weakens the existence of the "point", but it has not been completely weakened.
"I feel that he is more like this. The essence of opera is a combination of high abstraction and high reality. He deleted the abstraction and left only reality."
Zheng Rong did not hide it from them and said, "What he has been learning when he was in school is right."
"I mean the day of the interview."
"Shh."
Lu Zhong had never participated in the conversation. When he heard a few people still talking, he subconsciously made a sound of silence.
In the picture, Xu Rong and Lan Yingying started rehearsals again.
"You walked so fast that I was breathing."
"It's considered a relief, it's so breathless. I have to make a cup of Blue Mountain coffee, two?"
The people in the rehearsal hall looked at Xu Rong who turned his head and looked at him, and suddenly had a very strange feeling. Xu Rong's already pinnacle line level in the past seemed to be filled with some strange rhythm, which made people feel pleasant.
This time, Ren Ming vaguely understood what Xu Rong said before, "I'm wrong". He didn't know how to make trouble, so he took one more step under his feet, so that the words "two cups?" just turned out to form a rhythmic closed loop.
He didn't know how Xu Rong judged and how he divided it. And because Xu Rong stopped the last time, he didn't know what the effect would be after a wrong beat, but in comparison, it seemed that the overall effect was smoother.
Xu Rong looked at Lan Yingying, and saw that she had not responded, knowing that she might not have memorized it, so she did not continue. She turned her head to Pu Cunxi and said, "My understanding is roughly like this, but there are definitely shortcomings, but it is limited to level and vision. If anything is wrong, please criticize it."
Pu Cunxi smiled and shook his head. Xu Rong's demonstration was not enough to imitate him. As far as he knows, there may be only two people who can imitate Xu Rong's previous paragraph in the history of the Art Theatre.
But he knew that Xu Rong was demonstrating this to several old men and women. If this standard was not met, he would definitely vote against it during the review.
Ren Ming looked at Xu Rong curiously and said, "I feel that you have changed a lot from before."
"Actually, it's just twelve eight bets."
Xu Rong explained: "The 'recitation' in opera is an important homework, just like our lines, but we need to get stuck. It's not possible to beat fast or beat slower, it's not possible to be half a note higher or half a note lower."
Ren Ming stopped talking. This is really something that ordinary people can learn. No one can count beats while acting, and it is even more impossible to remember the pronunciation of every word.
Xu Rong can do it, because his talent and skills have reached a certain outrageous level.
Lan Yingying nodded as if she had some clarity when listening to Xu Rong's casual explanation. When Xu Rong was about to sit back to the director's desk, she mustered up the courage and said, "Xu, Brother Xu, I feel that your lines seem to be, not, not very pure."
Xu Rong was stunned.
Pu Cunxi, Ren Ming, Gong Lijun, Lan Faqing, Wang Ji, Zou Jian, Lei Jia and others were also stunned.
Lan Tianye, Zheng Rong, Zhu Xu, Lu Zhong and Xu Xiulin were also stunned.
Intern Lan Yingying’s lines criticizing Xu Rong were not very pure?!
