[Rebirth] King of Theater

Randy never understood that Al chose to forgive the idiot members of the school troupe so quickly.

"Actually, you can put on airs, make trouble for them, or play tricks on them a little..." He once suggested secretly in such a cautious way: "They used to fight against you every day, didn't you get angry, didn't you Do you remember?"

Al looked up at him, with a very warm smile on his face: "I remember, but I'm angry, I really don't."

Randy couldn't help feeling that he was too weak to be bullied, and an inexplicable desire to protect suddenly rose in his heart, puffed up his cheeks, and said angrily: "How can I not be angry? If it were me, I would definitely clean them up." .”

Al thought for a while: "Because this also brought me some help. When I put forward an idea, in order to refute and fight against me, they always racked their brains to study my idea, and then tried their best to find it. Find out its shortcomings. Isn’t this helping me in turn? I always have places I can’t think of by myself, but due to the limitations of my own ability and thinking, I can’t see or find it. Well now, so many people help me find it for free..."

He even laughed while talking, with a very complacent look: "It's too late for me to thank them, why do I still have to resent?"

"Hey, you!"

Randy couldn't help but sighed, and sighed: "Always think of the bad things for the good, and you can find some fun out of it. Let me tell you, if life goes smoothly one day, you might not be used to it." .”

Al laughed again: "You're making me look like a masochist."

But thinking about it carefully, it seems to be the same thing. The more difficulties I encounter, the more I can enjoy myself more and more.

But as he said, in order to make people unable to find fault, and to be more convinced of his arrangement...

In the repeated confrontation with the group of amateur members day after day, he had to re-study his own script and think about how to perform each scene...Under this huge pressure, human progress The speed is predictable.

The most obvious change is...

The day came when the screenwriting training class finally started.

Al happily went to the class with his attendance certificate, and was surprised to find that many of the theories taught in the class could be connected with reality. Moreover, after comparing the two, many people only knew that "I should do this to get better results." ", but I still don't understand "why the effect will be better this way", all of them have been answered, and I have gained a full sense of accomplishment.

So, when the day's class ended, the students gradually dispersed.

Al was still reluctant to leave, and looked at Mr. Tom Curtis eagerly, wanting to say a few words.

The inner world of Mr. Tom Curtis is also full of contradictions.

On the one hand, he really cared about the student he had recruited as an auditor, and wanted to go over and ask, "How are you doing? How did you feel on the first day of class? What's wrong, do you need any help?"; but On the other hand, he was terribly afraid that the little green-eyed guy would give himself another exaggerated compliment like "You are my God".

In the end, the virtue of preaching and teaching overcomes the shy personality.

He chose to walk over with a straight face, and asked gently: "Can you understand the knowledge in today's class?"

As an auditor, he actually received preferential treatment from the teacher.

Al looked up flattered, his green eyes sparkling, he was as excited as a wolf meeting a lamb, and Mr. Curtis wanted to turn around and leave.

"Great, great! Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't know how stupid I was! Really, you are like a guiding light in the dark..."

"shut up!"

Mr. Curtis ordered nervously: "Speak directly about the problems you have encountered."

It was so much fun.

If Mr. Robert, the painter, saw this scene, he would probably be out of breath from laughing again.

Al had no choice but to stop praising.

God can testify!Deep down in his heart, he really didn't mean to flatter, all gratitude and praise came from his heart.

But Mr. Tom Curtis is such a strange existence who doesn't like to listen to good things!

So much so... that it was almost impossible to vent his enthusiasm.

However, consider not to waste other people's time too much.

Al still hastily asked some questions he had encountered recently.

Mr. Curtis showed excellent patience in this matter, and he didn't think he was wordy anymore. After listening to the question and meditating for a few seconds...

He didn't give an answer right away, but suddenly said, "Are you working on a new play?"

"It's just an amateur club, the members are all students, and I guide from the side."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Al still calmly stated the essential purpose of making a new play: "By the way, I can also make a little money."

Mr. Tom Curtis is not the otherworldly type.

He nodded silently, and began to answer Al's previous questions one by one.

Needless to say more specific!

But when a puzzle that has plagued me for a long time is solved, the feeling of sudden enlightenment is really wonderful.

The magic of knowledge is always so irresistible.

In addition, Al actively pursued an opportunity to correspond with Mr. Curtis.

Because the editorial training sessions are held three times a week, with such a long interval between each session, it is too sad to have questions but not get answers. It would be great if I could communicate at any time.But before he got Mr. Curtis's permission, he was too embarrassed to bother and bother people all the time, for fear of being annoying, but he would be fine with his permission.

I have to say that it was a lot of fun to correspond with Mr. Tom Curtis.

Although this old gentleman looks serious, he is not the iconic old stubborn type that appears in some dramas. On the contrary, he has a gentle temperament, never with a livid face, nor lose his temper. When speaking, although he does not deliberately What a joke, but after careful thought, there was a sense of cold humor in the words.

For example, once, Al wrote a long letter with great enthusiasm, including the compliments that he had no time to say before, as well as the things he encountered recently, all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and some opinions and opinions that he just thought of. After entering it, I wrote it thoroughly, and then happily sent it out.

That time, Mr. Tom Curtis wrote back to him: [Succinctness is the primary virtue of writing, please pay attention to the appropriate details.The letter paper you're using is fine, and it's the right size.Every time you hit the tenth page, you remind yourself to stop quickly.Because that means there is too much grass that should be cut down next to the big tree. ]

To explain simply, what he meant should be——

Please stop talking nonsense!

Or--

I only tolerate ten pages of nonsense from you.

Al wanted to laugh too much.

On the other side, maybe they are watching the school troupe's new play getting better and better.

The dusty dream in Grace's heart of "wanting to show off and become a campus legend" was taken out again, wiped clean carefully, and sparkled again.

This eldest lady's family background is very good, she is never short of money, and her life circle is relatively simple.

According to normal people's understanding, she should have the character of an obedient lady.

Of course, that's true of her appearance.

But on the other hand, she who is addicted to the drama world inevitably has a fantasizing and relatively rebellious side deep in her heart. She thinks wildly all day long, unwilling to live an ordinary life, and secretly yearns for an intense, exciting and magnificent life.That's why she thought it sounded cool that Al was born in a slum and was chased by death. This was by no means a mockery, but the truth.

In short, due to her family background, this young lady who couldn't "experience the exciting life" (received severe beatings) personally, after seeing the light of her dream shining again, couldn't help but happily wanted to do something, such as , spend money to get some reliable props for yourself.

Because the play was inspired by Wilde's "Salome".

And the most famous and shocking scene of Salome should be holding and kissing the head of her dead lover!

Therefore, this rebellious young lady who longed for something extraordinary in her bones also wanted to shock this scene a little bit.

So, she paid out of her own pocket, found a professional prop master, spent a lot of money, took the time to take the hero Randy to the past, took several weeks, and managed to make four lifelike ones. What is the difference between real people's heads, one for rehearsal, one for official performance, one for backup, and one for Randy himself as a souvenir.

On the day when the props were ready, as soon as Al entered the door, he saw four heads neatly placed on the table.

The members of the troupe were not rehearsing, they were all laughing and watching.

Randy was sitting at a table next to him, looking quite at ease.

While eating french fries dipped in ketchup, he stretched out his arms and childishly wiped some ketchup on the lips of the head that was given to him as a souvenir, admiring the blood-stained lips with great interest. look...

"You're pretty." Al walked over and joked.

Randy smiled triumphantly and asked, "Then do you like it?"

Almo looked at the head thoughtfully, and flattered with a smile: "Looking at nature is also beautiful, but it is lifeless and lifeless, far less dazzling than you."

"I really want to give myself to you, but I'm afraid you won't accept it." Randy laughed.

Then, he jumped off the table, took the head that belonged to him, and forced it to the young playwright, saying generously: "Then I will give you my head, friend!"

Al couldn't laugh or cry.

Forced to hug the head, he couldn't help muttering to himself: "Ah, this is really a wonderful gift."

Randy clasped his hands together, pretending to be pleading: "Please cherish me, put me on your bedside, and sleep peacefully with you every day."

Al had already stuffed his head into his big gray cloth bag, and said speechlessly: "Then I will have nightmares."

Everyone laughed beside them.

The author has something to say:

【Note】In fact, I think the Qisha Dance is the most shocking part of Salome. However, the plot needs to be written like that.
