[Rebirth] King of Theater

Chapter 129 Al: Al: Everyone treats me like everyone loves me

"Director Costa Winchell?"

Al immediately turned his head eagerly after hearing this, and looked over with a pair of green eyes in surprise: "Do you know this director?"

Editor-in-Chief Bernie was taken aback: "What? You've heard of him too?"

Alben wanted to nod immediately, but when the words came to his lips, he remembered that the director's real fame came two years later, when the theater market was getting more and more sluggish due to the continuous impact of movies and TV dramas...

A director who was not very well-known at first and was only famous in a small area suddenly turned out to be, and staged three dramas in a row, and guaranteed a sensation in every scene.He is like a shining star, instantly lighting up the sky in the theater world, inspiring countless practitioners who are obsessed with "drama is immortal", and bringing new hope and light to drama.

Al in his previous life is also one of the encouraged ones!

This excellent director is none other than Costa Winchell mentioned by editor-in-chief Bernie.

So, when he heard the name, he became excited.

But this director is still in a state of infancy, and I don't have much actual performance to prove my talent and ability, so it's a bit hard to explain how I met him, just when I was trying to blur things out...

Mr. Curtis suddenly objected.

However, the old gentleman did not directly say that it was bad, but he had a good memory, and he made clear comments on the spot, and he made such a tactful comment: "I know the person you mentioned. He used to be in the Shakespeare troupe. , co-directed "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and "Macbeth" with others, and there were not many brilliant places. Later, he began to try to direct operas, dramas and musicals. As far as I know, there are three famous works of his. One is the drama "You Should Grow Up", an initial work with a strong craftsmanship, the name is "You Should Grow Up, but you didn't grow up, and you didn't make money"; the other is the musical "The Jungle of Sin", singing and dancing A very good drama, but too much pursuit of illusory ideas and themes, the end result is that both sides are not pleasing, and it is also quite sinful. It is a disaster-level work that has lost everything; the last one is "Snowman", what do you say about this one? What? It’s worthy of the name, going out for a walk on a snowy day is refreshing.”

What he said was funny, and everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard it.

However, the editor-in-chief Bernie still helped people with a few words of conscience: "Don't just talk about shortcomings, you clearly know that this director is still very good, you just talk about craftsmanship, but he directed "You Should Be" When I grew up, I was only 20 years old; you said that "The Jungle of Sin" lost money, but some people liked its singing and dancing, and liked its ideas, but it was a little immature, but it could already be seen that the director was working hard. I tried it; as for "Snowman", it makes people feel chilled, isn't it considered a skill? The reason why you don't like him is not because he sold himself for money..."

"what?"

Al couldn't help screaming, with a confused expression on his face: "Did I hear it wrong, sir? I seem to have heard you just now..."

"What's the point of mentioning this? It's an old story." Mr. Curtis said unhappy.

But Al was really curious. Moreover, this matter was not a secret, so the editor-in-chief Bernie still roughly talked about the ins and outs of the matter.

Director Costa Winchell is also an odd man.

His family background is quite average, and he doesn't know how to do it. (Before he made his fortune), his financial luck was extremely poor. In order to get rid of poverty, he made a bunch of huge plans on a whim, such as building a paper mill, and planting rice and corn (Al: ???), all ended in failure, and their own economic situation went from bad to worse, and they were heavily in debt.

As it happened, there was a very beautiful and rich musical actress who liked him.

In order to repay the debt and avoid being caught in prison, he quickly married the actress, and happily lived a good life of "spending his wife's money and being raised by his wife". became a director.

Al: ...

Of course, these are just his personal affairs.

Although it is not an honor to eat soft food, there is no reason for outsiders to say that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

What really dissatisfied Mr. Curtis was...

After the actress married Costa Winchell, she actually devoted herself to supporting her father-in-law, staying behind the scenes and never performing on stage again.

Coincidentally, the actress was a friend he had known for several years.

Even Mr. Robert, the painter, felt a little sorry about this: "Back then, Serena's voice was very good. The mid-bass sounded ethereal and ethereal, and the high-pitched beautural voice was solid and vigorous. When the two were overdone, they were natural. It is really a rare female singer who can also control opera arias."

At this point, Al finally understood what was going on with his teacher.

Don't be angry when your friend is married!But my friend actually married a man who eats soft food, angry!

My friend married a man who eats soft food, as long as she is happy, she will not be angry!But she can't help but self-destruct her future, quit the stage, and support that man who eats soft food in his career as a director?angry!

To be honest, if I hadn't known in my previous life that director Costa Winchell was indeed talented, and later he would be honest, and there would be no gossip...

Al now also wants to stand in the position of his own teacher, and despise people a lot-it's really embarrassing for us men to not make money to support our family and eat soft food!

But anyway, based on the above reasons...

Mr. Curtis looked down on this director very much.

Concerned about the teacher's mood, Al's excitement when he first heard the director's name dissipated a lot.

However, editor-in-chief Bernie is a very fair person. When he looks at people, he is never disturbed by some external objective reasons. Therefore, he still sticks to his own opinion and tries to recommend this director to Al. , some things are like marriage, no matter how much others tell you, it’s useless, you have to experience it yourself before you know what’s going on. If you think I’m still trustworthy, why not meet Costa in person, you guys Sit down and talk, and see if they are suitable for each other."

Al couldn't help laughing at this statement: "Your tone sounds like you are introducing single men and women to meet and go on a blind date..."

"You're talking, dear! These days, finding a suitable work partner is more difficult than finding a lover." Editor-in-Chief Bernie said with a smile.

Mr. Curtis also expressed his position very generously at this time: "Bernie is right. I do have prejudice against this person, but work is work. If necessary, you can go and see him, but I still insist. People are not going to be successful."

Al was a little moved when he heard the words, but also a little hesitant...

At this time, the painter Robert said again: "God, what do you want to do so much. Bernie, since you have recommended someone, why don't you help me to contact him now. It is better to hit the sun than to choose a date. Make an appointment with him and let little Al Go meet him!"

Editor-in-Chief Bernie clapped his hands and agreed without saying a word. He turned around and asked Mr. Curtis to borrow the phone, saying that he would call Coster Winchell now to make an appointment...

The rapid development of the whole thing is absolutely unimaginable.

Al foolishly held his manuscript and was still in a daze. He just met a famous big shot in his previous life. Before he had time to get excited, he listened to the secrets and gossips of the big shot; After doing the scriptures, he was coerced by the enthusiastic elders again, and made an appointment with the big shot, which was completely arranged clearly

After making an appointment to meet the next day...

Editor-in-Chief Bernie was very sure: "Look! Costa will definitely fall in love with your script."

Mr. Curtis was full of confidence: "You'd better think about it carefully. If it's a sack, refuse it directly, and don't save face for Bernie."

Painter Robert is full of anticipation: "Ah! Can I see this play appear on the stage? I hope it will be sooner."

So, when Al left Mr. Curtis's house, he was very happy.

It wasn't until he walked into the house and saw a pile of scrapped manuscripts in the trash can that he forgot to take out, that he woke up instantly as if someone had poured cold water on his head: "Damn it, I was killed by Ke Mr. Tees and the others are confused! This is a two-way choice, what the hell am I doing here? They haven't seen that they are willing to cooperate with me."
