[Rebirth] King of Theater

Later, Al recalled countless times the situation when he ran to Mr. Milson and Director Hank Lee on impulse to change the script.

After listening to his words, Mr. Milson and Director Hank Lee looked at each other, neither objecting nor agreeing immediately, just bowed their heads and began to think.

But that kind of silence once made people uneasy, and forced people to start to reflect inwardly:

"Ah, too bad! I'm so dazzled by the recent success!"

"God, as a newcomer playwright, where on earth do I have the confidence to think that I can be the master of the house?"

"Change the script if you want to, so flippant, so casual, so..."

"It looks very unreliable!"

Al nearly fell into a severe self-loathing.

He regretted that he forgot how to write the word "cautious" as soon as he got a little grade!

But Mr. Milson and Director Hank Lee raised their heads almost at the same time.

Then, they looked at each other again.

There seems to be a unique language between this pair of old friends who have worked together for many years. They can communicate unimpeded only with their eyes and brain waves.

It's just this kind of communication that often makes people standing aside feel more anxious and uneasy.

Fortunately, it turned out to be good.

Mr. Milson said, "It might be worth a try."

Director Hank Li chattered: "I knew that none of you so-called geniuses would be safe. You are simply synonymous with trouble. I hate working with geniuses. There are always accidents..."

But even with all the whining...

In a sudden moment, he said, "Why are you standing there waiting? Hurry up and show me your revised script! Brat, if it's not exciting enough, I won't agree to it!"

Things are going so well!

It was unexpected.

Later, Mr. Milson said: "If the script you showed me for the first time was this version, I might not agree with it from the beginning. But I don't know why, after watching you rehearse the original version for a while, you can take it again." After publishing this modified version, I suddenly felt that it seemed to be okay.”

As for director Hank Lee's thoughts, no one except Mr. Milson may understand.

His statement is extremely superstitious: "Since it is God's favor, let us accept it well!"

But in any case, Al was filled with uncontrollable joy at the time.

He ran back happily, with inspiration flooding in like a tide, wishing he could immediately make the scene imagined in his mind a reality and appear on the stage.

At the same time, also because of his super high work efficiency...

The actor Matt soon ushered in the bad news.

"It's okay to be abandoned, but to be killed?"

Matt was very reluctant.

But that's okay!

His son Randy sold his father again after Al offered to "give you a salary increase of 20 yuan a week".

Moreover, Randy seems to be very happy to see "dad killed by lover" (even if it's just in the show).

He took the money and ran away without a trace before, but now that he learned of such a plot, he actually came to the crew to report from time to time.

Although the stage manager expressly forbids the actors to bring their families to make trouble.

But Randy doesn't belong to the kind of troublesome type. He inherited his father's musical talent, so he quickly won the favor of the music director, and occasionally joined the music director, choreographer, Matt and Al. Discussion group with some very useful suggestions.

At one point, Al frowned, struggling with the rhyme of a song.

At that time, his thoughts were stuck on the first sentence "I waited for a long time (solong)", and he couldn't find a word to match it after thinking about it. Randy just walked over and glanced at it, and casually suggested: "Why Why don't you try alone?"

At that moment, Mose suddenly realized.

A slight smile finally appeared on the indifferent and pretty face of the Muse.

In the following time, Al naturally grabbed the talents who came to his door and changed all the songs he wrote before.

Randy has a strong talent in this area. This kind of talent is by no means comparable to Al's kind of pseudo-genius. He can sing and dance, knows many kinds of musical instruments, and can write melodies easily. Compared with a tuning fork, he has an absolute sense of pitch. He can accurately find any note he wants from a bunch of noises. He is also very talented in lyrics. the most appropriate expression.

But the annoying thing is...

People with such talents have no interest in the music industry.

"I've been touring with my goddamn old man since I was five."

Perhaps after reading Al's script, he mistook the boy in front of him for a fellow (genius).

Once, the blond-haired, blue-eyed, beautiful boy had a rare chat about his own life experience: "My mom didn't know who it was, Matt said, someone left me at his door and left a note saying it was his son." , but he has slept with too many women, so he doesn't even know who gave birth to me."

"I've been with him for as long as I can remember anyway, traveling in cars all over the country..."

"Oh, you don't know how unreliable that damned old bastard is! Sometimes he drives and falls asleep halfway while driving, and I have to push him desperately, so as not to cause a car accident and kill me in one go; Once, he was about to go on stage to sing, but he was actually drunk. I poured three basins of cold water on him to wake him up; They actually kicked me out of the room, I was hungry and had nowhere to go, so I could only wander back and forth in the corridors of the hotel..."

In short, Randy's growth experience can be considered rough.

But unlike the children in the slums, he is not lacking materially (so his bargaining skills are not very good, and he can't sell a good price when selling his father), on the contrary, he is completely empty in the spiritual world.

Think about it, a five- or six-year-old child has been wandering around with a group of men who are rampant and hormonal but have nowhere to vent (the rock band his father Matt is in) for a long time, and have never experienced the warmth of a family. What I witness every day is that this group of idiots smoke, drink, pick up girls, fight, go crazy on the stage, and their young hearts have suffered great devastation.

Under such circumstances, most people will probably have two reactions.

The first type, collude with others, and gradually grow into a virtuous bastard like my father; the second type, a rebellious mentality, disgusting everything related to my father. From then on, everything my father would do, Resolutely don't do it; resolutely disagree with any views of my father, and devote my whole life to being a person who is completely different from my father.

There is no doubt that Randy has become the latter.

He hated his own father Matt so much that he vowed not to let himself be like Matt.

For this reason, I don’t smoke or drink, develop a good routine, eat a healthy diet, carefully abide by all the laws and regulations of this country, and do moderate sports every day.

Moreover, although he has a super high talent for music, he doesn't want to make it a career, he just entertains himself, and is currently working on becoming a chef (it is said that because he is touring with his father, he often eats the last meal without the next meal , leading to longing for the mysterious chef career that will never be short of food since childhood).

It can be said that, apart from not being filial enough, selling his father every day...

He can be regarded as one of the top ten young men who emerge from the mud without staining themselves.

But although Al sympathized with his experience, he envied his talent even more, and was very distressed by his behavior of giving up his talent.

It's a bit like being poor for three days without food and seeing a rich man throw away a bite of bread simply because it didn't suit his appetite...

Out of this little thought, he couldn't help but say a few more words to Randy.

Due to his precocious personality, Randy rarely has friends of the same age. After reading Al's interesting script, he also wants to be friends with this young playwright. In this way, the two of them really chatted together.

One day, Luke came to look for Al, and heard the laughter of his good friend from a long distance away.

He couldn't help thinking: "It seems that he is in a good mood, so he shouldn't be angry with me again?" But after following the voice and walking over, he saw that his friend was chatting happily with a guy he didn't know.

When Al saw Luke, he really forgot all about being angry before.

He was quite happy to introduce them: "Randy, this is my best friend, Luke; Luke, this is my new friend Randy!"

Randy held out his hand to Luke politely: "Nice to meet you."

Luke looked at Randy suspiciously, but he didn't reach out his hand for a long time. First, he had never shook hands with anyone in such a serious manner; second, he had never seen a man wearing a red shirt...

Randy narrowed his eyes, withdrew his hand calmly, raised his hand in a concealed manner, and naturally pushed the golden hair behind his ear.

Then, turning his head as if nothing had happened, he continued to say to Al: "Where did we just say, oh, by the way, Faust! Do you remember? When he touched Margaret, Mephistopheles Les stood by and watched, and many people said that it was malicious. But I really think that it is not necessarily malicious, do demons still have human emotions?"

Al didn't notice the strange atmosphere between the two friends, and he was still pondering the character traits of the character of Mephistopheles.

He mused, "That makes sense, but I think..."

"Wait, who is Faust? The new actor on your side?"

Luke didn't like the focus of his friends' attention on the blond boy with blue eyes and white skin, so he couldn't help but interjected.

After hearing this sentence...

Al and Randy laughed in unison.

Luke immediately realized that he was laughing at himself.

But he didn't understand what the hell was there to be laughed at?

Isn't Faust a personal name?

What did he say wrong?

The author has something to say:

PS. Goethe's "Faust", you can search the content of the story on Baidu, it is actually quite an interesting story.
