Mr. Chu

Broadway is the birthplace of drama in country M. Mother River, people in the theater circles all over the world, will always pay attention to this place, and look at every face on the stage with critical eyes.

The competition here is quite fierce. Every small role will be competed by talented students from the Drama Academy. While fighting for life and death, it also fully guarantees the high quality of theatrical performances. Keep it fresh.

Gu Yang was arranged for training as soon as he was taken there. From singing practice to body language performance on stage, 24 hours a day, [-] hours were packed full, and he stayed in the dance room to practice all day and night. It was hard work. what?No, he was actually lucky.

The opportunity that teenagers get is what many people dream of. This is Broadway, the place where geniuses are least valuable.How many people have hoarse throats and broken legs when they sing, and their lives are just a substitute for rotation, and how many people spend their time in day-to-day interpersonal struggles.How could he devote himself wholeheartedly to practice like him, with a good teacher to guide him carefully, and he would be able to play when the time came.

Gu Yang knows, and knows how to cherish this hard-won luck. The reward he can make is to practice harder, give the best performance, and live up to the expectations of those people.

"The Nightingale and the Rose" is a magnificent play, the protagonist is the nightingale, and the secondary protagonist is the student.This show has a very high rehearsal rate on Broadway in recent years. Johnny's troupe, this show is the most exciting and coveted. The lead actor had an accident and had to be replaced. I don't know how many people are waiting to see the good show.

There are also some people who are waiting for the top position, but find that the opportunity has been snatched away.

In the locker room, the atmosphere was deadlocked.

"An Oriental," said a blond, good-looking teenager in the ornate setting, repeating with wonder and exasperation: "An Oriental—a college freshman, never acting, aha— —Do you believe it, Sue? I thought I was dreaming!"

On the other side, the boy with brown hair and green eyes glanced at his angry companion. He, who had always had trouble with Taunton, didn't say anything to refute it. This shows what kind of attitude this is.

This can't be blamed on them, Taunton and Sue are both understudies for the role of Nightingale in the troupe, and they have been growing up in the competition. Take it away!

The point is that this person's resume looks exactly like a gimmick. The 17-year-old Cannes actor is very powerful in the film industry, but stage plays and movies are not the same type!Can the film king directly cross the border?Do not make jokes.Aside from his personal resume, Gu Yang's age is also an important factor that cannot be convincing. He is still too young. Taunton is 24 and Su is 25. They are already the youngest members of the troupe.Being able to serve as the protagonist's substitute undoubtedly shows that their strength is good.

Su pondered for a while, turned his head to look at a corner, and found that the other party hadn't moved, frowned imperceptibly, and said, "Annie, we're talking about something important, and it's related to our future. What do you think?"

On the other side of the dressing table, a girl with burgundy hair and wearing a black dress is doing makeup in front of the mirror. She is not very beautiful, but judging from Su Cain's tone, she undoubtedly has a high status in the troupe's younger generation .

The girl raised her eyes and looked at them, without hiding the look of disdain on her face, she said: "Come on, Sue, don't do this to me, you and I both know that you are just afraid that he will rob you." Don’t think too much about your position. He’s just here for an exchange and internship. After this show is over, he still has to go back to school. He’s very popular in country Z, and he’s going to enter Hollywood anyway. It’s impossible to stay here of."

"You have nothing to do with yourself like this!" Compared to Su's city mansion, Taunton has not yet reached the level of cultivation, he yelled, sneered meanly and viciously, and mocked the girl: "Yes, you What a peace of mind, who will compete with you for the role-I don’t even want it for me, go play your rose tree, play it for the rest of your life! Aha, when you become an old girl who can’t get married, and lie alone in the grave Here, the inscription on the tomb is still engraved: Anne, the best rose tree actor..."

"Taunton!" Su yelled loudly, "Shut up!"

"Heh..." Annie sneered, packed her things, stood up and looked down at them, she was very tall, and her figure was a bit more resolute than girls of the same age, really like a tall and straight tree .

She looked at the two teenagers, and said contemptuously and coldly: "Put away your tricks, don't try to provoke me, Taunton, Sue, I am no longer a little girl who just joined the troupe and will be deceived and suppressed by you. There is that Kung Fu, it is better to improve your lines, otherwise, even if there is no newcomer, it will not be your turn to sit in the chief position."

After finishing speaking, she opened the door and prepared to go out, leaving no room for relaxation.

"Wait!" Su stopped her, and asked solemnly, "Are you talking on his side? Annie, let me remind you, we are from the same faction..."

On Broadway, it has always been a topic of discussion whether the wild way out of the troupe or the serious professional background is better.The deliberate division of the media has also led to the faction of the two factions forming a group with each other, forming a tendency to confront each other in private, and they don't talk to each other very much.

Gu Yang came here from a university exchange. In the eyes of Su who grew up in a theater troupe, he is undoubtedly an annoying academic. Many of the troupe's unspoken rules have been run on in private, and they have to pretend nothing happened on the surface, breaking their teeth and swallowing them in their stomachs.But this time it's a bit different, this newcomer has never met them so far, and the small means of crowding out people that he expected before are useless at all.

Therefore, Su needs Annie's support. She is the only leading role in the new generation. If she is willing to cooperate, then giving the newcomer a blow and making him make a fool of himself will be twice the result with half the effort.

The only thing I need to worry about is this woman's bad temper.

"Impossible." Sure enough, Annie refused flatly: "I warn you, don't threaten me with this, Johnny won't be happy for you to form a small group in his troupe, don't force me to tell him that you do it in private How did that student get run away? Hehe, he still thinks that there is something wrong with the pair of shoes..."

After being exposed to the trick, Su's face did not show a trace of unnaturalness. He took a deep look at the other party and said, "It seems that you are going to stand on that side."

"There is no problem of standing on the sidelines. If he plays well, I cooperate with him. It is only right and proper. If he doesn't perform well, I don't need my help. The audience will naturally shoot him off the stage. You have been on Broadway for so many years. Do you understand this truth? Only his strength can support an actor to the end." Annie took a breath, and gave them a last look in disappointment: "Su, I still remember your excited look when you first came on stage , since when did you become this virtue?"

She didn't want to say more, and strode away from the backstage.

The two teenagers were left behind, and they were silent for a while.

It took a long time before Taunton spoke. He shook his head, bit his nails, and said viciously, "I don't believe it—I don't believe it anyway. Just wait and see. I can't wait for the rehearsal next week—" "

For the time being, Gu Yang still doesn't feel the turmoil behind the troupe, it's not that he is too careless, the main reason is——too busy!I'm exhausted every day!

From six o'clock in the morning, the young man practiced in that dance studio. He had to stand for more than ten hours a day. At the end of each day, his legs were sore and numb, and his whole body trembled. The movements are becoming more and more perfect, in line with the requirements of Broadway, which also makes the already thin chin even sharper.

After a while, Gu Yang found that he had grown thin muscles, and the lines covered the bones beautifully and smoothly. Although it was very thin, it was better than nothing!

So, he happily sent a selfie to Chu Jinye during the break time: I am also a person with muscles 0v0

Soon, Chu Jinye replied to him, sending a photo of his abs with deep lines, and his eight-pack abs were very obvious.

The matching words are: Well, muscles.

Gu Yang: ...

snort!He turned off his mobile phone angrily, heartbroken for his self-humiliating behavior!How did you forget it?Mr. Chu's figure, is that what ordinary people can have?angry!

The Chu family, Chu stared at the phone for a while tonight, with more smiles on his face, he said to the butler beside him: "Arrange the affairs, finish it early, I'm going to see Yang Yang's first time show."

The housekeeper nodded: "Okay, sir."

After training in the dark for a period of time, Gu Yang was finally notified to attend the troupe's first rehearsal, which was also the first time he met with the troupe members.

Broadway rehearsal venues, on the real stage, lighting, music, and costumes cost tens of thousands of dollars every month. The high cost guarantees the quality of the performance. As the saying goes, the wool comes from the sheep. To get viewers to pay expensive ticket prices, something has to be paid.

When the boy arrived, Johnny was also there. He smiled at Gu Yang, introduced several important people to him, and then said impatiently: "Let's start the performance, I can't wait."

The head of the regiment personally watched here. Naturally, some small methods used to bully laymen could not be used. Taunton hated his teeth, but he could do nothing about it. He knew that the reason why Johnny did this was to protect his valued newcomer.For some rumors in the troupe, this seemingly careless head of the troupe usually turned a blind eye to him, but when it came to a critical moment, he refused to move, and no one could move.

The small tricks off the court can't be counted on, so the winner can only be determined by his real skills. Taunton still has confidence in himself, his body language is rich, his dance is very good, Su's lines are stronger, and the two of them joined forces. Come on, it's rare that you still can't hold the limelight of a newcomer?impossible.

Before the rehearsal started, it was natural that there would be time for the scene. The two teenagers exchanged glances and walked up to Gu Yang one after the other.

"Hi, I'm Sue."

"Taunton."

"We are Nightingale's understudies, here to play against you."

Faced with such obviously malicious strike-up, Gu Yang blinked and remembered what Qin Shao told him before he came.

'...No matter where you are, there will always be people who underestimate your strength, despise your origin, and use various methods to suppress you. What you have to do is to use your strength to beat all those contempt back in their faces. '

The cold beauty raised her chin and said to him arrogantly: "You have this ability, you should let them see it." '

You are eligible.

Gu Yang smiled slightly, his eyebrows and eyes were very gentle.

"Okay, that's fine, I'm Gu Yang, Gu Yang."

"OK." Taunton was impatient, and didn't care what he said at all. He stared into Gu Yang's eyes, wholeheartedly wanting to show him off: "Let's dance together, starting from the third measure, can you dance? ?'The nightingale flew through the air, to the rose-tree—'"

Taunton recited his lines, posed in dance poses, and danced his body leisurely. His demeanor was very beautiful and attracted a lot of attention and admiration. This was what he was most proud of, especially when Johnny saw When he came over, he couldn't help but feel proud.

"The nightingale flew through the air, to the rose tree."

The young man's voice interrupted Taunton's words softly and unquestionably. He smiled and also assumed an elegant dancing posture, forming an ingenious arc between his arms. The beauty was just right. It was not something that could be practiced in three or two days. The feeling of coming out——

Su's heart skipped a beat suddenly, and he felt an ominous premonition.

"The rose tree, there, dying, silent and mournful, I fly to it - I want its roses - I see the thorn, I'll pierce my chest through it just as the moonlight It, dye it red with my blood, so that the most beautiful roses can bloom."

Soft, sweet, like the sound of petals falling.That line, neither too long nor too short, was read out gently by him, like a poem that rhymed to the right level, every word he uttered, every accent, was just right, perfect beyond perfection.

"That's the rose tree."

Gu Yang walked up to Taunton, pinched his arm, and pressed his stiff shoulders like dancing. His movements were elegant and beautiful, obviously very simple, but he couldn't help but want to see it!

In contrast, Taunton's movements seemed heavy and redundant, as if they were superfluous, and there was no need for them.No, he is obviously good and appreciated by others, but compared with Gu Yang, he is always lacking in something, like the original painting, and a copy of the original painting.

That oriental boy was a living nightingale. He stood on the stage as if he had landed in a garden.

"You, be happy. In this way, everything I do has value. I don't want anything, and I don't want anything in return. Please keep your infatuation. That is the best reward for me." Gu Yang said that his eyes were full and moving, like a lake under the moon. He let go of Taunton's arm, looked at Su again, and said softly, "...Who called me Nightingale?"

Su stood there, unable to move at all. He stared stiffly and unable to think about the pure black eyes of the young man. There was only one sentence in his mind. His thought just now had come true.

What he faced was a true genius.

The author has something to say: Yang Yang: Look!I have muscles!

Mr. Chu: (inadvertently showing eight-pack abs) Well, muscles.
