For the sake of my life, I might even be able to dominate the entertainment industry

"Congratulations to Yan Shutong for obtaining..."

After Yan Shutong finished recording the semi-finals of "Natural Actors", Xu Yanqiu called him and said that director Luo Shan had confirmed him to be the male lead of the new movie, and the contract had been delivered by express delivery, and the contract would be signed soon.

Yan Shutong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then threw himself into the final of "Natural Actors" non-stop.

After the second round of the tutor team competition, there were only 12 actors left, and only half of them were left after the semi-finals.Both Yan Shutong and Pei Yang were lucky enough to enter the final round, and they were the youngest members of the top six.

In the last performance, the remaining six people and three mentors will perform together, and then the final champion will be decided.

Yan Shutong has experienced a season of competitions, but he has never had a head-on collision with Pei Yang.

The only matchup was only in the third round of the second round, when each team played an original script together.But because there were too many people that time, to be honest, Yan Shutong didn't have much sense of reality.

It wasn't until the finals, when he was going to stand on the same stage with Pei Yang and perform the same script, that Yan Shutong felt some enthusiasm.

He has no great desire for the championship.Yan Shu and Tongzhi are still inexperienced, and although their acting skills are a bit tricky, they are still not as good as those veteran actors in terms of depth.He was already very satisfied to be able to go all the way to the final.

Now Yan Shutong's only hope is that he can have a showdown with Pei Yang this time.

When he was still a trainee in the company half a year ago, he once performed on the same stage with Pei Yang.That time, with his stage creativity, he beat Pei Yang by less than a point.If the teacher hadn't taken other factors into consideration when scoring, he probably wouldn't have won against Pei Yang.

Yan Shutong has always been worried about this.

Among his peers, Pei Yang is the best acting person he has ever seen.If he wants to surpass his predecessors and earn tens of billions in box office, the first step is to become a leader among his peers.

Not relying on some other off-court factors, but really relying on his own strength to win against Pei Yang.

He had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

The preparation time for the final is still one week, and Yan Shutong has kept himself in an extremely excited state since this week, and he dare not let his nerves relax in the slightest.

The other actors in his group also seemed to feel his enthusiasm.Especially Pei Yang, who inexplicably received the fighting spirit from his friends, showed extremely high concentration and enthusiasm during the preparations for this week.

Neither of them said anything about it, but they seemed to understand each other's feelings.

——Come and do a real job.

June tenth.

The recording of the last performance of "Natural Actors" has begun.

The program group borrowed the largest studio in the film and television base, which can fully accommodate 3000 people, and there are no empty seats present.

The host Xiao Huai, who has been with the audience for more than two months, came on stage: "Dear audience friends, welcome to the No. 11 issue of "Natural Actors", here is our final final scene. Let us first invite the jury and the three mentors Take your seat."

After briefly introducing today's rules, Xiao Huai invited three instructors in turn to talk about their feelings about this season, and then the performances of the actors began.

The curtain slowly opened——

The stage layout of the finals seemed to be several grades different from the usual competitions, and the script was also chosen to be more magnificent.Although the age is a bit long, it is definitely a masterpiece in everyone's memory.

The original play was played in the 80s of the last century. The story took place in the era of the Republic of China. It tells the ups and downs of a generation of famous actresses in the war-torn era, and their short and rough life.

Among the six actors in the final, only Qiu Huiyun is a woman, and the role of famous actress naturally falls on her head.

This is not to say that Qiu Huiyun plays the protagonist in the original work, so there will be more scenes and her performance will highlight her.

Because it was in the finals, the program group specially invited an entire screenwriting team. The leader was a close disciple of the original screenwriter, and drastically condensed the original two-hour movie into a half-hour stage play.

The role played by each actor, and his unique temperament, will be shown to the audience.

Yan Shutong is going to act this time as a son of a wealthy family who has been infatuated with the famous actress Chu Baozhen all his life and followed her all his life.It's just that he suffered from his own physical incompleteness, and he never told his love in his whole life.

Pei Yang plays Yan Shutong's rival in love, and is also the fiancé who has been in love with Chu Baozhen for three lifetimes.Because the fragrance of the lover fades away and the jade dies, all thoughts are lost.Later, he learned that his lover was brutally killed by the invading enemy army, and went to the battlefield bravely.

In the end, during the war-torn era, he sacrificed himself for the sake of the country and Chu Baozhen.

Speaking of which, when deciding on the role, Yan Shutong also made a small episode because he played a female role in reverse.

Maybe it was because he shot a lot of commercials that time, and the role of Mei Jiao Niang who was about to get married was too popular, everyone booed and asked him to play the role of Chu Baozhen.Even Qiu Huiyun smiled and said she had no objection, saying that if the competitor was Yan Shutong, she could give up the role to others.

Yan Shutong blushed from being teased, and didn't know how to persuade everyone to give up this idea.

Others usually looked at him like a little adult, but it was the first time he saw him unable to speak, so he was even more amused.In the end, Duan Tou, who came to visit the class to guide him, helped him out, "When the plot happened, the role of Zhu Sangong was 17 years old, which was in line with Shutong's age. This role is more suitable for him."

Duan threw a cold face, which immediately made other people dare not joke anymore.

With Qiu Huiyun as an actress, and Qiu Huiyun's rich experience and exquisite figure, of course it is more suitable for the role of Chu Baozhen, a stunner in the world.Although Yan Shutong has an exquisite appearance and is even more stunning in women's clothing, his small figure is enough to keep him out of the competition for the role of Chu Baozhen.

The other actors browsed through the rest of the characters, and sure enough, it was the same as what Duan Tou said, no matter in terms of image or age, Yan Shutong was the most suitable for the third son Zhu.

The proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.

Back to the day of the show.

The three countdowns of the program group passed, and the red curtain on the main stage slowly rose, revealing the beautiful scenery inside.

There was a graceful actor singing and dancing on the stage, flicking his sleeves, and then looking back.A pair of eyes like autumn water appeared in front of everyone, the actor's gaze was tender and tender, and the excerpts from his mouth were sweet and beautiful.

In less than a moment, it aroused applause from a group of people listening to the opera in the audience.

Among them, the one who yelled the loudest was the third young master Zhu who was seated in the center.He stared obsessively at the beauties on stage, until the actor stepped down, he couldn't get back to his senses for a long time.

After a long time, when everyone else had left, he seemed to realize that he stood up abruptly and walked to the back of the stage.

The follow spot lights on the stage moved with his movements, and the rest of the place went dark.Only then did the audience realize that this young man in a moon-white gown turned out to be a lame man.

"Baozhen! Baozhen!" Yan Shutong limped around from the left side of the stage to the right side, yelled twice, and returned to the middle.

The lights on the stage were turned on again, and the scene on the stage was already in front of the stage and behind the stage.

The scenery of the stage was quickly changed by the staff during the short period of time in the dark.

Chu Baozhen, played by Qiu Huiyun, is sitting in front of the mirror, carefully removing makeup from her face, when she suddenly hears a familiar voice calling her name from behind.She stood up quickly and put a cloak on herself.

In the next second, Yan Shutong in a long gown approached her.

"Baozhen! So you are here, and I have been looking for you for a long time!"

Yan Shutong made a gesture of crossing the threshold: "Your performance today is really wonderful! This song "Meng Jiangnu" is probably the entire capital, and no one can play it!"

"The third son Zhu is ridiculously praised." Chu Baozhen said neither humble nor overbearing, "Baozhen has not thanked the third son for the reward today. It's just that you come every day, so there is no need to reward so much money every time."

"It's not very calm outside now, it's good for the third son to keep some money with him."

"Hey, Baozhen's words mean I'm separated from me, right?" The third young master Zhu spread out the folding fan in his hand, and the breeze just happened to blow the broken hair on his forehead, giving him the appearance of a jade-like young master.

Although he is a well-known ignorant dude in the capital, but the appearance of the third young master Zhu is such that no one will get tired of it.

On the contrary, it made people feel that he was born to be raised so preciously.

"My family is rich in wealth, and everything else is missing. The only thing I don't lack is this gold and silver treasure. Besides, what I rewarded today is this pear orchard, not for you, Baozhen." Third Master Zhu blinked, It looked very playful, "The old class leader has accepted it, so you can't say anything about Baozhen."

Chu Baozhen shook her head helplessly, as if looking at her naughty younger brother, and said in a doting tone, "You."

"By the way, I heard that a strange person came to the city recently, saying that he can keep the human voice in the machine. I specially invited that person to record all the plays you sing today, Baozhen. This way, when I want to listen to it later, I can listen to it anytime..."

When the atmosphere between the two was in harmony, suddenly there was a huge cannon fire, and then the screams of countless men and women poured into the ears of the audience present, which lifted everyone's hearts in an instant.

In order to increase the authenticity, the sound of the studio also played a few vibrating sound effects.

Third Young Master Zhu's expression changed: "No, the army in the city must be fighting again! Baozhen, it's not suitable to stay here for long, you run away with me!"

The two disappeared into the dark curtain together.

The lights dimmed, and the scene changed again.

A middle-aged man in a military uniform held a binoculars, watching the fleeing of the common people under the tower.

A little soldier ran over: "Sir, we have captured the third son of the Zhu family, and he has a woman with him!"

The man's expression turned cold: "Take them to Haosheng to treat them. Send someone to inform the Zhu family that if they want all the three sons of their family to go back, they must be included under my command and used by me."

The Zhu family is one of the most wealthy families in the capital, and the army is the place where money is most needed in this troubled world.The man had long set his sights on the Zhu family's coveted Wanguan family property.The fight with the garrison in the capital without saying a word this time was just to cover up his real purpose, kidnap the third son Zhu, and force the head of the Zhu family to obey his words.

The generation of the Zhu family is sparsely populated, and the head of the family and his five brothers have a total of six households, and only three children are born.The first two children, a boy and a girl, all died in infancy.Among the children of the younger generation, Zhu San was the only one who lived to the age of ten.

So Zhu San was naturally raised by the elders of Liufang, and he walked sideways in the wealthy circle of the capital.

Fortunately, although Zhu San was raised to be a bit arrogant, he never did anything arrogant and domineering, and because of his fresh and handsome appearance, he was very popular with everyone, especially the girls.

The performance on the stage continued, and Zhu San and Chu Baozhen were locked in a wing room.Zhu San learned that his sweetheart was implicated by him, so he was arrested, so he begged the officers to release Chu Baozhen and lock him up alone.

But none of the officers were good at talking, not only did not agree to Zhu San's request, but seeing him as thin and lame, they humiliated him with words.They also took a fancy to Chu Baozhen and wanted to bully Chu Baozhen in front of Zhu San. Zhu San desperately wanted to protect his sweetheart, but he was powerless and could do nothing.

Just at the critical moment, Chu Baozhen's fiancé arrived in time.

Chu Baozhen's fiancé is named Gu Cheng, a resourceful scholar, it is said that his talent is as bright as Yu's, and he is on good terms with the commander of the garrison in the capital.

It was also because of this relationship that Gu Cheng arrived in time and rescued Chu Baozhen from those officers who deserved to be hacked to pieces.

Gu Cheng was able to rescue Chu Baozhen, but he was powerless against the third son Zhu.

Fortunately, Mr. Zhu San was not stupid, and he knew that with his status, these officers would not dare to neglect him, so they dismissed the worried Chu Baozhen and hurriedly left with Gu Cheng.

Sure enough, in less than a day, the Zhu family, who had always been neutral, had no choice but to compromise for Zhu San's life.

The plot starts from here, unfolding to the audience the cruelty and ruthlessness of that war era.

Gu Chen, who had anticipated that the capital would not be peaceful, decided to take Chu Baozhen away from this place of right and wrong and return to his hometown.Unexpectedly, the two accidentally separated on the road. When he found his fiancée again, he had already become an innocent soul under the loess.

Gu Chen was devastated, and after returning to his hometown to be decadent for a while, he unexpectedly ran into someone who knew Chu Baozhen.

That person once walked a certain distance with Chu Baozhen, and he was often taken care of by the kind Chu Baozhen on the way.But she watched Chu Baozhen being persecuted helplessly, and she didn't dare to go out to help. In the end, she only made a simple tomb for Chu Baozhen.

She told Gu Cheng that she saw with her own eyes that the person who had defiled Chu Baozhen was wearing a military uniform, which she described as the uniform of the capital's garrison.

The man also heard the other people address the officer before he left - "commander".

Gu Chen was furious. In order to avenge his lover, he resolutely returned to the capital and pretended to approach the commander of the garrison.

At the same time, the Zhu family also became a victim of the struggle between the commander of the capital's garrison and the chief of the enemy army outside the city.After the head of the Zhu family handed over his property, he was conspired and killed by the commander of the garrison. None of the more than a hundred members of the Zhu family survived.

Under the arrangement of his father, the head of the Zhu family, the third son Zhu fled abroad with enough money for the rest of his life.

Gu Cheng turned the muddy waters of the capital upside down by relying on his own ability.In the end, both the commander of the garrison and the chief of the enemy army died under his gun.

At this time, an overseas island country that had been eyeing the country for a long time sent troops to invade the country mercilessly.

Gu Cheng hated this chaotic world that killed his lover and caused countless people to be displaced.More than anyone else, he hopes that there will be peace in this world.So after avenging Chu Baozhen, he resolutely joined the army and died in battle against the invading army.

Time flies by, and 60 years have passed in a blink of an eye.

There was a white-haired old man leisurely lying on a deck chair, and the wooden chair creaked.Next to him was an old record player, which sang excerpts from the Kunqu opera "Meng Jiangnu".The singer's voice was soft and pleasant, and just a melodious ending was enough to make people imagine how pitiful he would be if he was in front of his eyes.

The white-haired old man swayed the cattail fan to the rhythm of the opera, as if he had returned to the time 60 years ago.

After the record was played, the old man seemed to be savoring it, and did not respond for a long time.After a long time, he stood up tremblingly, limped, and left the stage.

The curtain fell slowly.

"Play Like Life" ends here.

The applause from the audience was like thunder, and the expressions of the audience were all different.

Some were moved by the poignant love between Gu Cheng and Chu Baozhen, some were angered by the selfishness of the commander of the garrison army and the enemy commander, and some were drawn to homesickness by the mountain-like paternal love of the head of the Zhu family. There are also those who are touched by Zhu San's love for decades.

A good performance should be like this, it will not make the audience pay attention to only one of them, or a few people.

Instead, let the audience completely immerse themselves in the plot, and let their characters in the plot cry and laugh.After the end, it makes people feel lost, and they can't get out of it for a long time.

Xiao Huai tried to pick up the microphone several times to speak, but was overwhelmed by the audience's enthusiastic response.It wasn't until the applause from the audience lasted for more than five minutes that he finally found an opportunity for a break, "Let us welcome the six actors who have just brought us such a wonderful performance to come on stage again."

The applause that had finally subsided broke out again.

Xiao Huai asked the jury and the instructors to comment, and it was Duan Tou's last turn.

His words were as short as ever: "A very shocking performance."

Xiao Huai cue him to say more, so Duan Tou picked up the microphone again.

"This performance was beyond my expectation. I thought the original work was unsurpassable. But you showed me another possibility of interpretation. No matter what the result is, first of all, I would like to congratulate you for successfully surpassing Own."

Whether it was intentional or not, Yan Shutong felt that Duan Tou's eyes seemed to fall on him for a while before leaving.

Xiao Huai also picked up Duan Tou's words: "That's right, just like Duan Tou said, I believe everyone must have experienced two months of tempering and gained a new understanding of acting. No matter what the result is, we will The actors are all good."

But the game still has to have a final result, and the audience pressed their voting machines during the countdown.After waiting for about 10 minutes at the scene, the results were finally counted and sent to Xiao Huai by the staff.

"Now, the final voting results are in my hands. I don't know which one you want to see first?" Xiao Huai handed the microphone to the audience, and got a series of "first" replies.

Xiao Huai didn't listen at all: "Okay, then let's take a look at the No.4 winner!"

"Congratulations...Pei Yang! You won No.4 in "Natural Actors"!"

Pei Yang immediately showed a relieved expression.He still regretted not being able to get the first place, but it was all expected.With his qualifications when he just debuted, it is already very good to be able to get the fourth place.

But... He looked at Yan Shutong, who was still nervous beside him, and guessed in his heart.

With Yan Shutong's improvement rate as that of the rocket, it is impossible for him to be fifth and sixth.That's the top three position.A sincere smile appeared on the corner of Pei Yang's mouth.

If he loses, he loses, and he just wins back next time.

Xiao Huai then announced the fifth and sixth, and Qiu Huiyun ranked No.5.

Then No.2 was announced. It is a child actor who debuted and has acted in dramas for more than 40 years.The works that the actor starred in when he was young are still the youthful memories of many middle-aged people.

In the end, only No.1 and No.3 remained, and the only ones who have not yet announced their rankings are Yan Shutong and another actor who was born in a stage play.Speaking of which, this actor has some fate with Yan Shutong. In the first mentor battle, he lost to Yan Shutong with a slight disadvantage of dozens of votes.

In today's final scene, I didn't expect to repeat the scene at that time.

And the two also played the role of Zhu's father and son.

The actor's name is Li Hongwei, and his real age is enough to be Yan Shutong's father.

Xiao Huai asked Yan Shutong about his current mood: "I'm standing with Teacher Hong Wei again waiting for the result. I wonder how Tong Tong feels now?"

"It still feels quite strange." Yan Shutong took the microphone, "Mr. Hong Wei is an actor I particularly admire. In the following competitions, I will watch every performance. This time we can perform a work together. It is also a great honor. In fact, during the rehearsal, I felt that Mr. Hong Wei... is very much like my father."

He made a small joke to ease the tense atmosphere in the room.

"No other meaning, I just want to say that Mr. Hong Wei's acting is very good!" Yan Shutong laughed and explained, "It is also thanks to Mr. Hong Wei that I can get into the play very quickly every time I rehearse. So I Congratulations to the teacher for getting...err..."

"Wait, I haven't announced the final result yet, right?" Xiao Huai looked at him helplessly, "Please, Tongtong, can you have some confidence in yourself? Do you really think you can win the championship? ?”

After Xiao Huai finished speaking, Li Hongwei on the other side also booed, "Yes, I also think Shutong is very capable."

Immediately there was a sound of surprise from the audience.

Xiao Huai showed a mischievous expression: "I'm not as good as you want!"

"So let's congratulate Tongtong, who won... No.3 in our "Natural Actor"! Congratulations!"
