75 Chapter 75 teaching

When the two old friends met, they exchanged a few pleasantries before hou Xiling pointed at Jiang se.

this is Jiang se, the one I told you about earlier. She’s very smart. She’s going to film ‘events of Beiping’ that I’m writing. You’re my senior and my teacher in acting. I’ll have to trouble you to give her some pointers.

He must have told Chang Yuhu about this beforehand. When Chang Yuhu heard what he had to say, his gaze fell on Jiang se.

She had dyed her hair black and looked dignified. Perhaps it was because she had been in the film industry for many years, her behavior was graceful.

With hou Xiling’s introduction, she extended her hand and shook Jiang SE’s. She asked curiously, ”

I heard from old hou that you’re also a student from the first Academy. You graduated here, so what’s so difficult about your future? why did you suddenly want to enter this industry? ”

Hou Xiling invited the two of them into the courtyard house. Jiang se thought about it and answered, ”

“I think this line of work is interesting.”

“Oh?” Chang Yuhu and hou Xiling looked at each other and then asked, ”

“What’s the point?”

if a person’s life is a cultivation journey, then acting in different movies and acting out different lives would always be very interesting.

Her words made Chang Yuhu laugh and he replied, ”

I’m going back to the imperial capital Grand Theater in the afternoon to direct the rehearsal. You can come with me, young lady.

When hou Xiling heard this, he asked, ”

“” Returning to man on a snowy night “?”

Chang Yuhu nodded. if you’re brave enough, you can practice on the stage. It’ll be good for you.

After she said this, she turned to look at Jiang se.

“The last time” returning home on a snowy night “was performed in the Grand Theater was more than ten years ago. I don’t think you’ve seen it before.”

Jiang se was just a first-year university student. When “returning home on a snowy night” was released, she was still very young and had not been born for long.

Before her reincarnation, Jiang se had never watched this play. However, she had searched up Chang Yuhu’s story on the internet. Hence, she knew that more than ten years ago, she had once played the female lead, Yu Chun, in “return on a snowy night. it had caused a sensation back then.

this time, the theater intends to put ‘return on a snowy night’ on the stage again. Dong Chaoping is worried that the stage play actors will not perform well, so he asked me to go back and give them some advice. It’s a coincidence that you called me too.

Hou Xiling replied, “it’s indeed a coincidence. When this work was put on stage that year, it was performed four times in a row. There were no empty seats in the Grand Theater. The newspapers and magazines even reported about it.

Jiang se listened to their conversation quietly. During the meal, Chang Yuhu would occasionally glance at her. He noticed that she was not in a hurry to show off and was trying to show off. Occasionally, she would reply politely but not rigidly. Instead, her attitude toward Jiang se had become much friendlier.

Although hou Xiling had offered to treat, Jiang se was informed that he had already paid for the meal when she was about to pay for it.

Hou Xiling was initially interested and wanted to go to the theater to watch the rehearsal, but he was summoned by a phone call at the last minute.

Jiang se followed Chang Yuhu all the way to the theater. She had come here many times to listen to music concerts and watch plays. However, this was her first time coming here outside of the performance.

The moment Chang Yuhu entered, a staff member was already waiting for him. When he saw her leading the group over, the theater staff first looked at Jiang se curiously. Then, he introduced Chang Yuhu to the situation in the troupe. In the end, he said rather embarrassedly, ”

it’s almost time for the performance. This is the second time this work has been put on stage. Back then, you were a gem, so it’s inevitable that the seniors who have seen it will compare with you when they watch it again. So, brother Dong’s intention is to invite you back to give some advice to the younger generation.

In the rehearsal hall, the actors for ” returning home on a snowy night ” had already arrived. The moment Chang Yuhu entered, someone brought a chair over and invited her to sit down below the stage. Jiang se stood beside her and listened to the people in the rehearsal hall clapping and calling for the actors inside to perform first so that Chang Yuhu could pick out the flaws.

returning on a snowy night ” was originally a poem from the Tang Dynasty. It was a play written by the famous playwright, teacher Wu, using the mood of the poem.

When the music started playing, the people on the stage quickly found their seats.

The actors on the stage put in their best effort to perform. Below the stage, Chang Yuhu smiled as he stared at the stage. He turned his head and spoke to Jiang se.

“In fact, they asked me to come back to find a Bodhisattva to guard me.” She sighed. old hou asked me to teach you, but I don’t know what I have to teach you in acting. It’s not that I want to keep it to myself, but there are a thousand hamlets in a thousand people’s hearts.

She picked up the tea prepared by the theater staff and took a sip.

you are a smart child. You should know that if it is as old hou has said, that I am teaching you my every move, my speech, and my mannerisms during my performance and forcing you to strictly follow them, then I am just acting. If you are acting as me, you will not achieve much.

When Jiang se heard this, she fell into deep thought.

“The master of acting once said that an actor should be an artist, not an artisan. The difference between the two was whether or not one had the ability to create. Artisan Entertainment only knows how to imitate and follow, but he doesn’t have the ability to innovate. He doesn’t have his own understanding of the character he’s performing, so he can’t add his own things to it. That’s why he can’t improve.”

The music on the stage was beautiful, while Chang Yuhu was multitasking below the stage.

the actor creates the character, but the character also restricts the actor. After the character’s personality is developed in the plot, the actor can only be loyal to the character’s emotions and actions and immerse himself in it. When she said this, she gave Jiang se a meaningful look.

it’s just that many people tend to be too deeply immersed in their emotions and often find it difficult to extricate themselves, forming a mental burden.

Therefore, this was also a contradiction. A good actor could interpret many roles, but at the same time, it was difficult to get out of the role. As time passed, the pressure would form, and the pain could not be expressed to outsiders.

“If you want to enter this industry, you have to learn how to adjust yourself. After you’re done, you’ll go on stage to play one of the roles. I’ll take a look at where you’re lacking and correct it. Try a few more times and withstand the pressure. Once you find the feeling, acting won’t be difficult.”

After she finished speaking, she beckoned the theater staff over and whispered a few words into their ears. The theater staff nodded repeatedly and turned to leave.

When he returned, he had two scripts in his hands and handed them to Chang Yuhu.

Chang Yuhu gestured for Jiang se to read through the plot of the script. He leaned back in his chair and focused on the script. He did not say anything else.

The script was ” returning on a snowy night ” that was being rehearsed on stage. It was about the male Beijing Opera star, Lian Sheng, and the court president’s fourth aunt, tai Yuchun, who fell in love but were eventually separated.

As Chang Yuhu had told her to perform once on stage later, she did not specify which role she was going to play. This made Jiang se feel a little pressured, but at the same time, she was eager to try. While watching the performance on stage and watching their movements, he forced himself to memorize the contents of the script.
