Chapter 16

Seeing that the young man seemed to be impatient, Yu Zhishui finally decided enough was enough: "Besides, you can read the script while you are talking to me. There is no such thing as spoiler or spoiler, isn't it?"

"Oh..." The young man held up the script sullenly, "Then let's start with the scene where you appear?"

"Of course." Yu Zhishui nodded.

"But here are the heroine's words."

"Just think about it." Yu Zhishui smiled half a smile.

Zhang Heqin opened his mouth, hesitated for a while before reading: "Is the person in the mirror real, and whose shadow is it reflecting?"

"..." Yu Zhishui rubbed his temples. "Don't follow the script, show some emotion. You have already taken a day's course with Lao Lin, and you have also spent a day in the theater."

This kid is good at everything, but when he reads his lines, it looks too much like reading a text in class.

No ups and downs, just scripted.

Oh no, it's not as good as following the script. After all, the emotions that should be there are already written in the script book. Is this kid directly ignoring the expression of emotions and actions, and only focusing on the content of the lines themselves?

Wind blowing leaves sounds like wanting to hit someone :)

Zhang Heqin hesitated for a moment, stood up from the chair, then took a deep breath and looked at him.

There was confusion and anticipation in those dark eyes.

Yu Zhishui blinked his eyes.

"Is the person in the mirror real, and whose shadow is it reflecting?"

Well, there was some emotion at last, and he was generally satisfied—at least to be able to continue the conversation.

Yu Zhishui took a step forward, and his expression changed instantly.

In the reflection of Zhang Heqin's pupils, Yu Zhishui saw his gloomy face without a trace of a smile, a faint flame was burning in his eyes, and his voice was not as peaceful as usual when he spoke.

"I'm just a lonely soul that should have dissipated in the world long ago, longing for someone who can hear me."

"Are you the ghost of the opera house, are you the one who helped me today?" Zhang Heqin's eyes flashed a trace of doubt, although Yu Zhishui knew that the young man was wondering what the so-called "help" was, but to be honest, according to In terms of lines, his performance is quite satisfactory.

Yu Zhishui's voice was low and filled with longing—the suppressed, oppressed, and eager to plunder ghost said: "What do you think, the lady with a beautiful voice like a nightingale?"

"It's really you!" Zhang Heqin tried to show a surprised look, "Where are you, can I see you?"

"Right in front of you, dear." The ghost said softly, his voice soft, like a sympathetic hand caressing his ear, "I'm in the mirror, aren't I?"

Zhang Heqin blinked and stopped, Yu Zhishui raised his eyebrows: "Why, don't continue?"

"How to do this?" The young man was obviously at a loss.

"Have you never heard of a two-way mirror?" Yu Zhishui smiled half-smile, "The kind of mirror that is often used for peeping."

"So that's it!" Zhang Heqin suddenly realized, "Then the ghost is going to take her to his underground labyrinth?"

"Yes." Yu Zhishui said helplessly, "Continue?"

"Okay, I'm sorry." Zhang Heqin said shyly, after all, it's not good for him to interrupt their dialogue like this.

He read the lines, cleared his throat and continued, "Are you by our side?"

The ghost whispered softly: "I am with this theater, and I have witnessed everyone's growth...During these years, Miss Bai Ling, you are the singer with the most beautiful voice I have ever seen. You are suitable to stand on the stage In the very center, become a dazzling star."

"Thank you... how do you know my name is Bai Ling?"

"Every brick and tile in the opera house is singing your name." The ghost replied, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest, I should go."

"At least! At least let me know your name..."

After a pause, Zhang Heqin blinked: "Is the first meeting only such a short time?"

"Yes," Yu Zhishui said with ease, "So I said, this is a drama with stage props and stage effects as the majority. It's actually hard to feel the feeling just by matching the lines like this."

"Then are we familiarizing ourselves with the lines now?"

"Of course." Yu Zhishui returned him a smile. "Actually, I don't have a lot of lines, and most of them are concentrated in the back. This drama is completely from the perspective of the heroine, and the rest are supporting roles. As the Phantom of the Opera, I am probably the clue character in series. "

"I can probably understand this." Zhang Heqin hesitated for a moment, "Is it a little hard to talk to me about the lines?"

"Okay, why do you ask such a question?"

"Because I feel that I don't seem to have any feelings..."

"So you can realize it yourself." Yu Zhishui rubbed his temples, "Sure enough, you still need to strengthen your training in this area... But although you can't compare with those who came from a major, you are still pretty good .”

"Really?" The young man, who was still a little lost, regained his spirit.

"Really." Yu Zhishui smiled, "But it's still a bit difficult for you to shine."

Zhang Heqin replied: "I will work hard."

"It doesn't work if you work hard, you have to have your own personality." Yu Zhishui sighed and rubbed his head: "After all, it is a 'referendum' program, I hope you can at least get the last twelve The 32 places in the period."

"it is good!"

Yu Zhishui raised his eyebrows: "Of course, don't put too much pressure on you. If you don't get a quota, I will continue to train you. After all, you are the one who was entrusted to me by Lai Juncheng."

"Uncle Lai...I mean, Mr. Lai treated me very well." Zhang Heqin smiled shyly.

"What do you call him, uncle?" The expression on Yu Zhishui's face at this moment was hideous for a moment - don't blame him, Lai Juncheng is only 28 years old, just ten years older than the one in front of him, and he is called Uncle? !

So what can he do? !

"Yes, because of him..." Zhang Heqin hesitated, but finally replied, "Because he has a very good relationship with my mother."

really.

Yu Zhishui knew it.

Although Lai Juncheng did not personally develop in the entertainment industry, there are legends about him everywhere in the entire entertainment industry.

For example, before he "congliang", the crazy bees and butterflies around him were ruthless...

"Ah, it's not what you think." Probably because the expression on Yu Zhishui's face was too complicated, Zhang Heqin immediately added: "They are really just good friends for many years."

"You know all of this?" Yu Zhishui was stunned.

"Yes, so I suspect that he should also know who my father is, but he just doesn't tell me directly." When he said this, the depression on Zhang Heqin's face flashed across.

Yu Zhishui said it was impossible: "He doesn't know either, I can guarantee this."

Otherwise, relying on Lai Zong's personality, he would have found out the other party and skinned him. According to Lai Juncheng's current status in the entertainment circle, there are not many people who can make him afraid.

And even for those who are afraid, if they are the candidates who know exactly, Lai Juncheng will definitely not make the other party feel better, but he has not acted until now, which naturally proves that he has no knowledge of this matter.

...Furthermore, how old is Zhang Heqin's mother?

Lai Juncheng was only 18 years old 10 years ago, so he knows what makes a ghost.

"Why?" The young man obviously didn't understand.

"He has a very good relationship with me." Yu Zhishui touched his head, "When he asks me to do something, he will definitely tell me everything I should know."

Zhang Heqin nodded sullenly and fell silent.

"Don't think too much about it," Yu Zhishui rubbed the young man's head, "Try your best to do the things right now, and you can look forward to it in the future...By the way, have you continued to study in college?"

The young man was a little absent-minded, and subconsciously answered him: "I just finished the college entrance examination, and now I'm on summer vacation."

“……………………”

Yu Zhishui wanted to hit the wall now.

There is no other reason.

He just wanted to hit him head on.

Although it is said that a young man of legal age is an adult, isn't a student just a young boy? ! ! !

What the hell did he do? ! !How could he extend his evil hand to the future flowers of the motherland! ! !

what! ! ! !

"Have you volunteered?" Yu Zhishui asked, resisting the collapse of his heart.

"Fill it in," the young man was very honest, "My mother and I both prefer the finance department, so we fill in the finance department for all three."

"...Then I wish you the admission letter from your ideal university."

"Thank you." The young man showed a bright smile, he seemed to have finally come out of his emotions, and raised the script: "Continue with the lines?"

"Wait a minute, I need to do some mental construction."

"?"

Facing the young man's head full of question marks, Yu Zhishui couldn't tell.

What can he do, he is also desperate.

So it was indeed a mistake the first time, and he will never make a second mistake! ! ! !

Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhishui nodded: "Go ahead."

Of course, it was said to continue, but because he realized the problem of this kid's age, he still did not return to his proper state in the end, and he could only stop halfway.

"Forget it, let's stop here today, my condition is not right." Yu Zhishui rubbed his temples. "Go and rest too, thank you for your hard work."

Zhang Heqin replied seriously: "It is I who want to thank you."

He realized that, in fact, this is also a kind of training. The person in front of him is using his own emotions to lead him to act together and enter this state together, making him realize what kind of environment he should be when speaking lines. It is also to let him realize what kind of state he should be in to face this kind of line situation.

Although he said that he was going to accompany him on his lines, but in reality, this person is already perfect in terms of lines, and even completely ok in terms of scenes. He was specially asked to be a partner to give him a chance to learn and exercise.

After realizing this, Zhang Heqin looked at his manager with gratitude.

Yu Zhishui didn't know what to do with such gazes, he spread his hands straight away: "Go to rest quickly, tomorrow we will continue to go to the company and Nanxing Theater... You should be familiar with the way from Nanxing Theater to the company, right?"

Zhang Heqin didn't reply.

"Okay, I'll talk to Lai Juncheng about this, and ask him to provide you with a driver, so you can't just get lost." Yu Zhishui sighed, "Practice with everyone in the theater in the morning, In the afternoon, go to the company to practice with Lao Lin and the others."

"Wouldn't both sides be unable to keep up?" Zhang Heqin asked.

"Of course not. There is no arrangement for Lao Lin in the morning. They are basically free training, and the main training sessions are in the afternoon." Yu Zhishui rubbed his hair. Thinking of this kid's age, he felt a little nervous. Feeling, "As for the theater, most of the group performers have group training in the morning. Although the situation is similar on both sides, but his side pays attention to body posture, and here it pays more attention to body expression."

"Okay." Zhang Heqin nodded seriously.

Yu Zhishui hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Speaking of which, I know it's not a good question...but who is your mother?"

Lai Juncheng is the president of Nanxing.

In the entire entertainment circle, he was almost at the top.

Yu Zhishui seemed to be able to figure out the identity of the person who could make Lai Juncheng take Lai Juncheng so seriously, and even demanded that he go out in person even when he knew the rules of his rest.

The boy remained silent for longer.

"It's okay if you don't want to say it. I'm just curious. It's not something you need to know." Yu Zhishui immediately said that he was actually just curious. After all, he also saw with his own eyes how much Lai Juncheng is in the entertainment industry He is cynical, and he really wants to know who the person he can take so seriously.

If it was just an ordinary housewife, he would definitely be more curious!

But it shouldn't be...

"It's not impossible to say." Zhang Heqin replied slowly, "But I think it's better for you not to know."

Yu Zhishui laughed and rubbed the young man's head: "You will make me even more curious!!"

But he didn't continue to ask, after all, as he said, he was just curious.

"Go to bed early, we'll be busy tomorrow."

"Ok."

The time that followed was indeed very busy.

Yu Zhishui is almost completely soaked in the theater, and he still needs a lot of rehearsals. The Phantom of the Opera is a drama that doesn't have much to say in terms of plot, but is very complicated in terms of choreography. Nanxing Theater has fully shown this The stage is bound to shock everyone.

The rehearsal has to go through countless on-site corrections, whether it is clothes, singing, appearance or other things, what they can do is perfection.

During the break, Yu Zhishui felt a little moved when he watched the rehearsal from the perspective of sitting in the auditorium.

There is a reason why Nanxing can always be the leader in the industry.

"looking at what?"

Yu Zhishui blinked, and glanced at the people around him: "Wen Qing, why are you here as the male number two?"

Wen Qing answered very vaguely: "Then as the number one male, why are you here?"

"I'll come down to check on the choreography, and I won't be in the scene until the third act." Yu Zhishui half-smiles, "But if I remember correctly, you should be on stage in the first act."

"I have nothing to do in the second act, nor in the third act." Wen Qing laughed, "I happened to see you down there and I'll come to accompany you."

"Are you here to accompany me, or to see Bai Tian." Yu Zhishui pointed to the stage with his chin.

The woman on the stage was wearing a long dress in a costume, with a soft and innocent expression on her face, she looked like a deer in the forest.

——Of course, both of them knew that this woman might be more like a tiger coveting a fawn.

"What do I see her doing?" Wen Qing replied with a guilty conscience.

"So a beautiful girl, don't you want to look at her?"

"..." Wen Qing stopped talking.

"She has been chasing you for six years." Yu Zhishui sighed, "If you really don't have the heart, reject her directly; if you have the heart, respond to her directly, it's not a difficult thing, right? ?”

After a pause, he continued: "This is my last performance. I will leave the Nanxing Theater after the drama ends. From then on, you will be her partner in the opposite performance. Can't you accept her as frankly as in the drama?" love?"

"Just like in this play, she admires you and loves you. Even if you feel sorry for her, what if you just look at her for a while? I believe you will be attracted by her gaze, and the same I will definitely fall in love with her, she is indeed a good girl."

Wen Qing looked at him with a wry smile: "Why do you still use the lines in the play?"

"Because I changed this drama just thinking about your relationship." Yu Zhishui looked back at him, his expression was very serious, even with a hint of sternness: "And I want to see your performance, otherwise I can still change the ending. of."

"Change it to what?" Wen Qing asked somewhat hopelessly.

"Feng Chuye took Bai Ling away from the opera house at all costs, even if she was knocked unconscious, and then she became his property alone, leaving Lin Qing forever." He replied word by word. Be especially serious.

Wen Qing was completely quiet now, and he smiled after a while: "You must be joking...?"

"You can try it, is this a joke?" Yu Zhishui said calmly. "I've had enough of the state you two are in now. Although it's not good to meddle in the affairs between you, if you still dawdle like this, I will make you suffer."

Wen Qing sternly said, "I will give this relationship a serious consideration."

"I'm more curious about the reason for your hesitation." Yu Zhishui sighed, "I haven't asked you why after getting along for so many years, and now I'm leaving soon, can you satisfy my curiosity?"

"It's just that I don't think I'm good enough for her." Wen Qing sighed.

"why?"

"Because she is good enough."

"You are also excellent."

"She is Nan Xing's eternal female number one."

"In the future, you will also be Nan Xing's number one male forever."

"But that's the position you gave up." Wen Qing replied, "I didn't fight for it. In this regard, I will never be as good as her."

"... If this is what you care about, I'm sorry." Yu Zhishui pursed his lips.

"No, it turns out that you are indeed stronger than me, and much stronger." Wen Qing was relieved, "If you are a woman, the number one position will always be yours."

"...that's not a compliment."

"This is indeed a compliment." Wen Qing looked at him sincerely, "If you still remember the miserable world when you were 20 years old."

"..." Of course Yu Zhishui would never forget.

That year's heroine accidentally fell down the steps and twisted her foot. The second heroine also asked for leave because of physical discomfort. The third heroine of that year, Bai Tian, ​​turned pale because she was nervous and forgot almost everything. lines.

In the end, Yu put on the water-tight jacket and swaggered onto the stage to complete the performance, singing the famous song "Idreamedadream".

He had to be thankful that it wasn't an anniversary, or else he would be ashamed.

"What are you talking about, so happy?"

The two raised their heads, and the woman who looked like a pure deer on the stage stood with her hips akimbo and looked at them, "Are you kidding me?"

"No, it's just a little reminiscence of the glorious past." Yu Zhishui said slowly. "Intermission?"

"Yes, the third act will be rehearsed next, I think you can prepare a little bit, my Mr. Ghost Prince?" Bai Tian raised his eyebrows and looked at his clothes, "Is this your costume?"

Yu Zhishui looked down at himself.

A tailored tuxedo and a white shirt are too simple to match.

"It's not accurate, this is the second body, I had to take off my coat when we first met." Yu Zhishui sighed, "And it's still overalls, wearing a mask..."

"It sounds a bit low-key, but it's not that low-key." Bai Tian blinked, "Where's your mask?"

"Backstage." Yu Zhishui stood up directly, "I'll get it, and prepare for the third act by the way."

"Okay." Bai Tian nodded.

Wen Qing stood up almost immediately: "I am also..."

"what are you going to do?"

The two spoke in unison, looked at each other and spoke again.

"The third act is none of your business, is it?"

"..." Wen Qing was dumbfounded.

"It's not your business, just sit down obediently and don't run around." Yu Zhishui glanced at him, then nodded at Bai Tian, ​​"I'll be right back."

"Okay." Bai Tian nodded, then turned his gaze to Wen Qing.

Yu Zhishui walked several steps before he heard a woman's voice: "Is that how scary I am?"

Emotional entanglement, this world is so difficult.

While feeling emotional, he stepped onto the stage and lifted the curtain and went backstage.

The backstage is as busy as ever, especially when it comes to fast prop switching—although they have already conducted safety rehearsals and experiments time and time again, this does not reassure the prop crew.

After all, it's not like there have been accidents in the past, and this time there is no second Yu Zhishui to take the stage.

What's more, it's the anniversary this time, so it's okay to lose face at home? !

After taking the mask, he deliberately went around to the group performance group to look at the situation behind, and was relieved to find that although the young man was sweating profusely, he was still doing the movements seriously. After admiring it for a while, he turned and walked to the front desk.

He can't make the staff wait for him, can he?
