Chapter 57

PreviousBack to directoryNext
After listening to Zhou Jun's words, Shao Chang was the first to ask: "The story was changed into a play? But a song and dance play?"

Thinking of Cui Yingying, Zhang Sheng, and the matchmaker standing on the stage, wearing masks and dancing uniformly, Zhou Jun shuddered, shook his head quickly and said: "It's not a song and dance drama."

Nie Xuanluan asked again: "Is that a good show?"

Zhou Jun said: "It's not a good show."

Everyone in the poetry club was confused.

Zhou Jun thought for a while and said, "Everyone, please think about it, the story of the West Chamber focuses on the plot and characters."

"If we use songs and dances to express our aspirations, it would be too colorful, and we cannot tell the whole story. If we use a high-quality opera to perform it, it would seem a bit childish and too noisy."

Yin Yu took Yu Junniang to the front and asked Zhou Jun: "In your opinion, how should this play be written?"

Zhou Jun: "The main part is dialogue, supplemented by singing. Singing, reading, acting, and playing are all indispensable."

After hearing this, Yin Yu's expression became even more puzzled, and she just asked: "Singing is singing, reading is dialogue, so what are doing and fighting?"

Zhou Jun: "Doing is showing momentum, fighting is martial arts."

Seeing that everyone still didn't understand, Zhou Jun had no choice but to recall the dramas in his previous life and explain from the beginning: "The whole story of The West Chamber has a complicated plot. If I want to fully explain the ins and outs, the actors on stage use dialogue,

It can let the audience know faster than singing and dancing."

"But if it's just dialogue, then the play will definitely be a little dull."

"Therefore, in addition to dialogue, singing can also be used to convey aspirations and emotions in some key plot points, which can make the audience more involved in the drama."

"Dialogue and singing both belong to the same voice."

"On this stage, if there is only sound, it will be insufficient. There must also be form."

"And these characters are divided into two types: static and dynamic."

"The so-called static form is to make gestures. The word "shi" includes the character's clothing, appearance, manners and even eyes."

"Take Cui Yingying as an example. She is a daughter of a rich family, well-educated and talented in literature. She loves Zhang Sheng, but she has to maintain her identity. Therefore, in her demeanor and eyes, she is both reserved and shy, and she also has to worry about gains and losses.

.”

"Besides, the actors' entrance on stage, their movements, transitions, and exits, as well as the fight scenes between martial arts actors, all belong to this category."

After he finished speaking, everyone in the poetry club was speechless, like clay and wood sculptures.

After a long time, Shao Chang was the first to come to his senses and asked Zhou Jun hesitantly: "Can the play be performed like this?"

Zhou Jun looked at him, nodded and said: "Of course the play can be performed like this."

Seeing that everyone around him looked confused, Zhou Jun also knew that continuing to talk like this was not an option.

After thinking about it, he said to everyone in the poetry club: "How about this, in the opening scene of The West Chamber, when Zhang Sheng meets Cui Yingying for the first time, we can find two of us and try out the show first?"

When others heard this, they thought this was a good idea and nodded in agreement.

Zhou Jun looked around and finally laid his eyes on Yin Yu and Yu Junniang.

"It's just you two. Your age, appearance, and temperament are quite suitable."

Yin Yu was stunned and wanted to refuse.

Zhou Jun said with a smile: "But stage fright is not the problem? If you are scared, just say so and I will just find someone else."

Yin Yu frowned and said angrily: "Who is afraid?!"

After saying that, Yin Yu pulled the astonished Yu Junniang and came to the field.

Zhou Jun said to the two of them: "When Zhang Sheng saw Cui Yingying for the first time, he sighed that this girl was beautiful, but she suffered from lovesickness. When Cui Yingying met Zhang Sheng, she wanted to welcome her but refused, pretending to be reserved."

"The two of you use this plot as a basis to think about it and try to act it out."

Yin Yu stood there blankly, at a loss: "But what kind of acting method is it?"

Zhou Jun: "How you behave and behave in daily life is the same as it is now."

Yin Yu and Yu Junniang looked at each other and nodded.

Yin Yu stood in front of Yu Junniang, held her hands in front of her with a calm expression and said, "Young lady is so handsome."

After hearing this, Madam Yu Jun nodded gently, wishing her all the best.

Zhou Jun could see the problem with just one glance.

These two people are so close and so familiar with each other that they simply can't act out the feeling of lovers meeting for the first time.

Zhou Jun said: "No, we have known each other for too long and have never been on stage before. I'm afraid I won't be able to get into the role."

The others nodded and agreed.

Zhou Jun turned his attention to his eldest brother Zhou Ze, and thought to himself, as a younger brother, I am here to help you, but what happens next depends on your own destiny.

So Zhou Jun said: "Brother, I can lend you a hand and replace Mr. Yin."

As soon as Zhou Ze heard this, he asked himself to replace Yin Yu and act with Yu Junniang. He quickly waved his hands and said: "I am a clumsy speaker and I can't do this."

I've given you a chance, but I don't know how to take advantage of it.

Zhou Jun was also angry. Without any explanation, he pulled Zhou Ze directly in front of Yu Jun's mother and said: "Zhang Sheng and Ying Ying met for the first time. Zhang Sheng fell in love with Ying Ying, but Ying Ying was shy. Let's play it out again."

Zhou Ze and Yu Junniang looked at each other.

It didn't take long for me to feel shy.

But it's not Yu Junniang who is shy, but Zhou Ze.

I saw that Zhou Ze didn't dare to look at Yu Junniang at all, his mouth was open, but he kept hesitating there.

After waiting for a long time, Zhou Ze, who really couldn't speak, bowed his hands to everyone, couldn't even say an apology, and left the place as if running away under the astonished gaze of Yu Junniang.

When Zhou Jun saw this, he also sighed in his heart. This brother is like this, I'm afraid his love life will be bumpy.

Zhou Jun found that everyone else was unreliable, so he had no choice but to go into battle on his own.

Yu Junniang was his brother's favorite, and Zhou Jun would never play opposite her.

The rest of the poetry club looked around, and Zhou Jun finally had to choose Yin Yu as Cui Yingying.

Yin Yu pointed at herself in surprise: "Someone? Is he Cui Yingying?"

Zhou Jun glanced at her: "I'm just acting, I'm just letting everyone see clearly."

Yin Yu thought for a moment and then agreed.

Zhou Jun first said to everyone in the poetry club: "Please take a look, I am just demonstrating, what the story of the West Chamber will look like if it is put on the stage."

After saying that, Zhou Jun asked Yin Yu to stand still where he was, while he walked over from a distance.

The moment he saw Yin Yu, Zhou Jun stopped and opened his eyes wide, as if a restraining spell had been cast on his whole body.

After a long time, Zhou Jun sighed: "There is such a woman in the world!"

After hearing this, Yin Yu's body trembled, and she turned her head to look at Zhou Jun, but remembering the latter's instructions, she had to stand still and pretend not to hear it.

Zhou Jun approached and chanted: "The weeping willows are swinging in front of the wind, the orioles are singing, and the flowers are coming from outside. It seems like such a beautiful woman, but how many of us do we see in this world."

Walking to Yin Yu's side, Zhou Jun looked at the former lovingly, bowed for a long time, and said sincerely: "A quiet orchid bloomed in the empty valley, which makes me miss you today. Madam, please don't blame me for being abrupt. Xiaosheng

I apologize here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Yu's heart trembled, two balls of fire burned onto her cheeks, and her head lowered unconsciously.

Everyone in the poetry club looked on, but they didn't even dare to take a breath, for fear of disturbing the beautiful scenery.

Zhou Jun saw that the heat was almost there, so he leaned down and took a secret look at Yin Yu's face.

Then, Zhou Jun stood up, pointed at Yin Yu and said loudly: "If you want to talk, you still have to stop, if you want to welcome, you still refuse. This is the shyness Cui Yingying should have. Let's all learn from it!"

When Yin Yu heard this, he was stunned at first, then became furious, flew up and kicked Zhou Jun hard in the crotch.

After kicking the person, Yin Yu left the courtyard angrily, leaving Zhou Jun alone, covering his crotch, screaming miserably on the ground.
