Acting school started in 1998

Chapter 72 Rehearsal
For the performance of the Huabiao Awards Ceremony, Li Tang specially bought a suit of exercises, bright Chinese red.Originally he picked a set of white with dark patterns, but Naianfei said that red is festive, so he tried to get off to a good start.

So at the backstage of the rehearsal scene of the newly completed CCTV No. [-] Studio Hall last year, Li Tang wore this red practice uniform, which looked like a red envelope. Fortunately, his skin was fair, and his red suit did not look obtrusive.

"Hello teacher!"

"Hey hey, hello!"

"Teacher, you have won the prize, and I have to learn more from you."

Most of the rehearsal backstage are well-known artists, and the teacher must be right.Although Li Tang is very young and looks like a rookie at first glance, the teachers all seem very kind.

Just kidding, it is definitely not ordinary people who can come to the rehearsal site, and the teachers are very clear about this.Those who have read "Shanghai Chronicle" recognized Li Tang at a glance, and a few words of praise and encouragement were indispensable.Even if you haven't seen it, there are only a few people on the shortlist, and it's not too bad to be seated right.

Li Tang also saw Uncle Benshan in the background.

This time, Uncle Benshan won the nomination for Best Actor for "Male and Female Director". The key point is that this movie was personally invested by Uncle Benshan.

Li Tang rushed over to say hello: "Mr. Benshan, hello! Hello! I really like your sketches."

He didn't mean to flatter, but he really liked it.Especially the skit "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow" performed by Uncle Benshan, Song Dandan, and CCTV host Xiao Cui in the Spring Festival Gala this year.

"I am Baiyun."

"I am the black soil."

"Is this a shoehorn face? This is an authentic pig's kidney face!"

"You pluck the wool of socialism..."

"You can only squeeze the wool, good guy, you're as good as Ge You..."

"Holle, the meal is ready, come down to Missy."

Hey, these lines made him so funny at the time.Who said that southerners don't like to watch the Spring Festival Gala? Uncle Benshan's sketches are still very popular in Shanghai at least in this era.

"Thank you, thank you, what are young people doing?"

Uncle Benshan, who was wearing the iconic blue Chinese tunic suit, didn't know him, but he was a little curious when he saw this guy wearing a red Tang suit and holding a shining sword in his hand.

"I will perform a sword dance."

"Yo, this show is good..."

At this time, the staff next to Uncle Benshan whispered to him, and Uncle Benshan immediately said with a smile on his face: "Xiao Li, so you are still good at it?"

The Ganqing staff reminded him of Li Tang's identity, probably the works he acted in, his work unit, and what awards he was shortlisted for.Although this attitude changed a bit quickly, but Uncle Benshan took it very naturally.

Sure enough, not everyone can succeed casually.

Li Tang hurriedly said modestly: "It's just a little superficial, it's not worth mentioning."

There were a lot of people who came to say hello to Uncle Benshan. Li Tang was very acquainted, exchanged a few pleasantries, and took the initiative to leave after getting acquainted.The backstage of a small rehearsal scene is like a social platform.

This is also what Naian specially took care of before coming here, taking advantage of the rehearsal opportunity to get to know more people, try to keep a low profile as a newcomer, and leave a good impression on others.

Sometimes it's not about getting something, but trying not to offend people unintentionally because of your negligence.

I have to say that Naian seems to be very cold, but he is actually very good at being a person, and he is quite skilled in handling interpersonal relationships.

That's right, Lou Ye is a boring gourd, if Naian is like him, many things can't be done.A good combination must be complementary.

"Brother Li!"

As soon as Li Tang looked up, he saw three beautiful girls. The one who called him was Hu Jing who had met once in Zhuozhou Film and Television City.She was nominated for the Film Newcomer Award as the leading actress in "Love in the Internet Age".

The one next to him is an old acquaintance Yuan Quan, this is a restrained girl, she smiled at him when she saw him looking over, without saying anything.

And another girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who was quite majestic, looked at him curiously.

Li Tang knew that he was dressed too coquettishly today, and received a lot of attention gifts like this.

"Hu Jing, Yuan Quan, long time no see, congratulations!"

"Brother Li, congratulations too!" the two girls laughed.

No need for introduction, Li Tang nodded to the girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes again: "Miss Mei Ting, hello!"

Mei Ting also said very formally: "Mr. Li Tang, hello!"

Just as she finished speaking, she burst out laughing with a "puchi". Her smile seemed to be low, and she knew it was impolite, but she still couldn't help laughing while covering her mouth.

The laughing Li Tang was a little puzzled.

Fortunately, Hu Jing, who has a high emotional intelligence, immediately smoothed things over and said, "Oh, why are you so formal!"

As he spoke, he introduced to Li Tang: "The three of us are all classmates."

"Hey, then you are really good in the 96 Chinese opera class, the three of you are three golden flowers!" Li Tang couldn't help but be speechless.

Yuan Quan and Mei Ting were nominated for the Best Actress Award, and Yuan Quan and Hu Jing were nominated for the Film Newcomer Award. One class has three nominations for the Huabiao Award, which is shocking enough. The key point is that they haven’t graduated yet. .

Hu Jing laughed and said, "There are more than three golden flowers, others say that our class has seven...uh, eight golden flowers!"

At this moment, Mei Ting, who was still laughing non-stop, was a little embarrassed, while Hu Jing pulled her sleeve covertly, and looked at her with apologetic eyes.

Li Tang didn't notice, and asked with a smile: "Then what show are you performing today?"

"The three of us dance together." Hu Jing said.

She and Mei Ting both studied dance before going to middle school. Although Yuan Quan was the first to sing Beijing opera, opera actors also pay attention to figure, and dancing is actually the basic skill.

"Brother Li, what about you, are you performing martial arts?"

Yuan Quan looked curiously at his flamboyant red exercise uniform and asked.

When the two were filming "Shanghai Chronicle", she often saw Li Tang doing warm-ups before filming, doing boxing sets and so on, and knew that Li Tang would do some kung fu.

Li Tang played a sword flower handsomely, and said with a smile: "It's similar to you, playing a sword dance."

The reason why it is said to be a sword dance rather than a sword performance is that Naian helped him match a piece of classical silk and bamboo music. During these two days when Li Tang was practicing, he made some changes according to the background music. Such movements are more elegant and rhythmic, so it is simply called sword dance.

Yuan Quan has a shy personality, but she has worked with Li Tang before and got along very well. It is inevitable that she will have more conversations this time when they reunite after a long absence.Hu Jing is purely self-aware, and can answer any topic.

In contrast, Mei Ting looked very quiet, standing there quietly with a decent smile, like a fragrant jasmine flower.

It was only the first time that Li Tang met her today, but he had already had a deep impression on her in the original body's memory.I remember the hit TV series "Bloody Heart" she starred in, especially the picture of her wearing that white nightgown, which made many adolescent boys dream at midnight and wake up with wet crotch.

After time travel, Li Tang also watched "Blood Romance" starring her and Zhang Guorong, and she was nominated for the Best Actress Award this time because of this movie.

From a professional point of view, her acting in this movie is actually mediocre, not even as impressive as the cuteness in the TV series "Bloody Heart".

Including the leading actor Zhang Guorong, he is far less amazing than in "Farewell My Concubine". With Li Tang's shallow understanding of the Chinese revolution, I feel that his performance is not like a real revolutionary, but more like a troubled young master.

The only thing that left a deep impression on him was the actor who played Mei Ting's father. For this reason, Li Tang specially wrote down the actor's name——Tao Zeru.

It's just that whether he acted in "Shanghai Chronicle" or "Blood Romance" starring Mei Ting and Zhang Guorong, there is a common feature that he doesn't understand.

In particular, he couldn't understand why an American always appeared in these two films reflecting the Chinese revolution?

This American always expressed deep sympathy for China at that time, and then appeared as a superior or a savior to help the protagonist.
