Senior Superstar

Once the script is finalized, the rest is about props and actors. Li Shixin's expertise in drama props, coupled with Zhang Ying's studio, is not a problem at all.

Actors are a problem.

In large-scale dramas like Thunderstorm and Teahouse, there are often dozens of characters on stage, and Li Shixin must not be able to decide on them all at once. I can only pick from these actors in Rongdian to see if there are any good seedlings, or the best ones are from drama actors.

He can't do this by himself.

But that's okay.

Be your own son!

As soon as Zhang Shuo reported his grievances for An Xiao, Li Shixin threw the burden over.

Zhang Shuo slapped himself when he heard that he wanted to pick gold from a group of extras.

Let your mouth be cheap!

Don't know what kind of virtue your godfather is?

Seeing Zhang Shuo's depressed acceptance, Li Shixin chuckled, There is one more thing.

I just knew it was okay to let you keep an eye on me!

Zhang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, Godfather, please tell me.

Looking at the godson who has been trained by him now, Li Shixin is very satisfied.

Compared with the two classic dramas, the plot of Only You is relatively simple. In four acts and three scenes, there are only four main actors involved. Father, daughter (teenage), daughter (middle age), daughter's husband, and a few cutscenes.

As a screenwriter, Li Shixin must have arranged for himself the most important role. That is, the father in the script, he has come alone from the prime of life to the old age-a proper C position.

Another important role is the role of the daughter. Now that I've caught An Xiaoxiao, it's no problem to act as a teenager, and I'll think about an actor who is a middle-aged daughter.

In addition to these two roles, there is not much time to appear on the stage, but the daughter and husband who have a great role in promoting the plot, and a few scenes.

For the role of daughter's husband, Li Shixin wanted Zhang Shuo to play.

Hearing Li Shixin's arrangement, Zhang Shuo was taken aback: Godfather, I can't.

Seeing the panic on Zhang Shuo's face, Li Shixin chuckled.

Through this period of getting along, Li Shixin has thoroughly studied this Godson No. 1.

As the head of the group, this bastard sent people to the crew every day, and after sending them off, he had nothing to do with him. But every day, he hangs out with the crew, hiding in the corner and watching the actors filming.

When he was on the set, Li Shixin asked him several times if he was interested in playing a role or something, and asked Jiao Chendong to arrange it, but Zhang Shuo always refused with the same excuses just now.

Thinking of what Zhang Ying had said to him when he first came to this house, Li Shixin curled his lips.

Shuoer, are you scared?

Who, who said I was scared? I am

Zhang Shuo's neck tingled, but he was discouraged at the end: Old man, I have so many extras on hand, I will find you a good one at that time, I really can't act.

Oh brother! Seeing Zhang Shuo rejecting Li Shixin's arrangement, Zhang Ying became anxious.

After Li Shixin came, the family changed a lot.

But what she always wanted to see the most was that her incompetent brother could gain confidence, truly get rid of the obsessions in his heart, and live a free and easy life like Li Shixin.

Others don't know, but as her own sister, she knows. Acting is an obsession of Zhang Shuo.

But maybe it was because of low self-esteem, or maybe it was because he was so obsessed with it, it became a heartache. Even though Zhang Shuo had contact with many crews, he never played his own role.

Zhang Ying didn't want her brother to become a big star or something, but she just wanted Zhang Shuo to get over it and live with ease.

The old man has made all the arrangements, so you can go and help! There is nothing in the crew right now, so you don't need to follow every day! It's just a drama, and it's not a serious movie. With your godfather taking you, you worry about what?

That's right. An Xiaoxiao who was on the side was also very familiar with Zhang Shuo during this time, and also echoed.

Seeing everyone's persuasion, Zhang Shuo still looked bitter and bitter, Li Shixin chuckled.

Okay, if you don't want to participate, then the godfather will not force you. But when Xiaoxiao and I are rehearsing at home, you can accompany us with the lines, is this the head office?

As soon as he heard that he would perform at home without facing the audience, Zhang Shuo showed a bit of excitement on his frightened face: Okay! It's done!

Seeing the fish take the hook, Li Shixin chuckled.

He took out his handwritten script from the back room and threw it to Zhang Shuo and An Xiaoxiao.

Familiar with the script, I'm going to cook for you!

In the next few days, Li Shixin rehearsed at home with An Xiaoxiao and Zhang Shuo, and at the same time, through Zhang Shuo's relationship, he found a few drama actors with good backgrounds in Rongdian.

Classic dramas such as Tea House and Thunderstorm are basically stepping stones for drama actors. Dare to say that he is a drama actor, and he must not be proficient in this kind of drama, but it saves Li Shixin a lot of trouble.

Taking advantage of the time when he went to the crew of Flying in the Wind to guide the props, he took the big guy back and brought them back to the small theater, where he taught them some skills such as curtain lighting and sound.

The Grass Team was pulled up.

A group of old fans have also tidied up the small theater, making it look like a serious theater.

With everything in place, all that remains is to rehearse and go on stage.

According to Li Shixin's plan, it is best to directly use his own Only You as the opening play, and classic dramas as side dishes to enrich the stage content.

So the most urgent thing is to practice Only You as soon as possible.

Children's Center.

Brother Shixin, everything is packed, how is your rehearsal going? When do we start?

Although the theater hadn't opened yet, a group of old fans who were feeling uncomfortable at home used it as an event venue after cleaning up the small theater.

Wu Ming paid out of his own pocket to buy teapots and cups and other daily expenses, as if he had become the big manager of the theater.

Facing Wu Ming's question, Li Shixin waved to the big man who was familiar with operating the lights, and signaled him to practice for a while, then walked to the center of a group of old fans.

There is still a lack of an actor for the new drama. When we find an actor, we can start it after practice. Don't worry, it will only take a few days.

Hearing that the small theater still lacked actors, the old man Liu Feng cheered up, Oh? Shixin, let me see what I can do. Anyway, our small theater is for our old friends. You are here with us. How about picking a few of them to go on stage?

Oh! That's a good idea!

Li Shixin chuckled, Brother Feng, take a break. I'm an actress in the play now, can you do it?

If he can't do it, we can do it!

As soon as Li Shixin said this, a group of old ladies cheered up.

Looking at the group of old ladies in front of him, the corners of Li Shixin's eyes twitched: Well, age is not enough. The actor that is lacking now needs to play roles in their 30s and 40s.

Ah, let's pretend we never said that.

A group of old fans are not embarrassed, they turned their heads and went to do what they should do.

At this moment, the door of the small theater was opened.

Zhao Jinzhi, who hadn't shown up for a few days, entered the door wearing a casual down jacket. Seeing that everyone was there, he smiled and said hello.

Are you all there? Brother, I saw the message you sent in the WeChat group. When will the theater start? I'll make some flower baskets and send them over.

When a group of old fans saw Zhao Jinzhi, their eyes lit up.

Hey? Shixin, you see Xiao Zhao has a small appearance and a small figure, so it's alright, right?

As soon as he entered the door, he was stared at by everyone, Zhao Jinzhi was taken aback: What's the problem?

Ahem, Li Shixin really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Normally, interacting with fans is interactive, but the drama is not just for fun, this cannot be vague.

This is the principle.

The principle of helping Zhang Shuo is based on the principle of going up if you can, finding others if you can't, and not being able to deal with it.

So he still has conflicts in his heart about the guest appearance of fans. Especially since the grown-up daughter is so important, a character who shines in the climax of Act 4 of Only You is needed.

Nothing!

Before Li Shixin could find a reason to shirk, Wu Ming on the side became anxious.

Waving to Zhao Jinzhi who was full of doubts: It means that the new play lacks an actor. Xiao Zhao can't do it! Xiao Zhao is so busy, how can he have time to rehearse and act? Right?

Zhao Jinzhi raised her eyebrows, I'm not busy, there's nothing to do during this time.

Wu Ming's face darkened in an instant; sincerity, right? !

Ahem, that's not going to work. You haven't acted before. What if you screwed up on stage? Brother Shixin, there are so many actors in our Rong shop, you should hurry up and find a suitable one, ah!

Hearing this, Zhao Jinzhi smiled.

Looking at everyone present, and then at Li Shixin who was looking up to the sky, Zhao Jinzhi shook the down jacket on his body and took it off.

Taking big steps, without saying a word, he stepped onto the stage that had already been sorted out.

Seeing a group of unidentified old fans under the stands, he breathed a sigh of relief, and made a gesture of holding a teapot.

The chief of staff should not be praised absurdly. He dare not sacrifice himself to save others. To open a teahouse and hope for prosperity is the first loyalty in the world. The commander often comes and goes. I have the heart to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade. I am also the commander's Hong Fuguang. Can die and present again, auspicious.

Seeing the witty Mrs. Ah Qing appearing on the stage, and listening to the full-bodied Peking Opera vocals, Li Shixin opened his mouth wide.

Not only him, but also a group of old fans were stunned by Zhao Jinzhi's sudden performance.

On stage, Zhao Jinzhi didn't stop!

After Mrs. Ah Qing's words were sung crisply like pearls falling on a jade plate, she immediately stood up straight, swiped her right hand, and made a motion of pinching a cigarette.

Mrs. Ah Qing instantly became Diao Deyi.

... I have been in Shajiabang for a long time, and this big tree provides shade. You have been with them for a long time, presumably because you have arranged for them to take care of them more carefully?

Build a seven-star stove, cook three rivers in a copper pot. Set up a table of eight immortals to entertain the sixteen parties. All the guests come, and they all rely on their mouths. When they meet and smile, they don't think about it afterwards. When people leave, the tea is cold. What's the plan? , no, Zhou, detailed!

good!

As Zhao Jinzhi sang a section of Wisdom Fighting in this posture, the small theater burst into applause.

Brother, look at me, is it okay?

Li Shixin smacked his lips when he saw Zhao Jinzhi, who was playing two roles on the stage, and who was rarely able to sing and move well.

What kind of gods are there in my fan club?
