After entering the city, I became everyone in Liyuan

The numbers drawn by the four people were both front and back, and they were not next to each other. The first one was not the confident Jiang Minghao, nor the nervous Deng Qi, but the heartless Fu Peng.

He was unlucky, and the number he drew was the third. After the two previous performances were over, it was his turn.

Su Yue sat under the stage and heard Fu Peng's name, she moved slightly, her expression became more focused.

It was the first time for her to see Fu Peng's performance. Anyway, she was in the same dormitory with Deng Qi, so she still had some expectations in her heart.

After the host's voice fell, Fu Peng came out wearing a long suit, reached the middle of the stage, and sang in T-steps: "Show off your might and show off your hero—"

Listening to this aria, Su Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Fan learned from Wu Laosheng, his voice is not bad, and his posture is also good enough.

After he finished singing, Teacher Yan barely frowned, and turned his head to talk to Su Yue, "Do you know what was sung in that passage just now?"

Su Yue nodded. In her previous life, she was curious about everything, and she also sang this song when she was learning Qin Opera from the teacher in the troupe.

However, although the lyrics are similar, there are still some differences between singing and articulation.

It is undeniable that Peking Opera is indeed better.

Of course, this may also be because she has her own filters for Kunqu opera, and even the Peking opera evolved from Kunqiang is a little more loving.

""Nanyangguan" tells the story of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It is a martial arts play. To perform this play well, you must not only have good skills, but also sing with momentum. It can only be said that it is quite satisfactory, there is no mistake, the only thing that can be praised is that the posture is not bad, and there is a bit of Wu Laosheng's aura without makeup."

Su Yue nodded beside her, and Teacher Yan spoke to the point.

It's also thanks to the fact that the requirements for opera actors in this era are not as high as they were in her previous life. Otherwise, at Senior Brother Fan's level, I'm afraid they can only play tricks.

And at the age of [-], he can't get on the stage yet, he can only play a trick, and it will be a bit difficult to become famous later.

After Senior Brother Fan finished, more than [-] people passed before it was Jiang Minghao's turn.

Jiang Minghao didn't sing, but only swiped for a section of the gun. After the swiping, he was able to choose himself without pointing at the judges. He greeted Mr. Bie and Mr. Zhou with a smile and then stepped off the stage.

"Xiao Jiang went to Shaolin Temple for a while when he was a child, and he is really good at juggling sticks."

Su Yue was a little surprised. With Jiang Minghao's character, he didn't say anything in this paragraph.

But this is a private matter, so I didn't ask more questions even if I was curious.

When it was about to end, Deng Qi, who was ranked last among the four, came on stage.

At this time, the judges were already very tired. Except for Mr. Zhou and Mr. Bie, who were still sitting upright, the others were basically leaning on the back of their chairs, their faces full of exhaustion.

Deng Qi took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage.

He was obviously more prepared than Senior Brother Fan and the others, because he was going to sing martial arts, so he basically put on all the outfits, except for the lack of makeup on his face.

So as soon as he came on stage, he felt completely different from the previous ones who didn't wear their heads.

Director Yuan, who was still lazily leaning on the back of the chair, also became more energetic.

Deng Qi was tall and energetic, with three-dimensional features and a tough silhouette. He had the kind of handsome appearance that would make him look like a martial artist.

Even without makeup, Lu Bu's outfit is already good enough.

Su Yue watched from below, and couldn't help but praise.

Teacher Yan seemed quite satisfied with Deng Qi, and when he saw him come out, he looked a little more serious.

After Deng Qi said hello, he moved on stage.

I saw that he first held the whip and moved forward, and after half a lap around the stage, he kicked down and pressed a split horse, then waved his arms, pulled and pulled, and took turns to fight several times, and finally stretched his front Stand up straight.

For a total of 3 minutes of performance, there was no music or aria, only Deng Qi on the stage showed various kung fu back and forth with a horsewhip.

At the end, sweating profusely, he bowed to the judges in the audience.

clap clap-

There was a solitary applause.

"Young man, when did you start learning opera?" Mr. Bie Guoliang from the audience asked.

Maybe it's because Mr. Liang from another country sang Xiaosheng, he looks bookish, very elegant and gentle.

Deng Qi was still a little out of breath. Seeing the teacher's inquiry, he hurriedly said respectfully: "I entered the industry at the age of eight. After learning the basic skills for a year, I officially started learning opera at the age of nine."

"I think your basic skills are very solid. You shouldn't have fallen behind in all these years, right?" Mr. Bie said again.

For students who work hard and are willing to endure hardships, as a teacher, probably no one can make exceptions for their preference.

Deng Qi seemed a little embarrassed when he heard the words, scratched his head and said: "When I first entered the industry, the teacher told me that the most important thing in learning opera is to study hard and practice hard. If you don't practice for a day, you will know it. If I don’t practice for three days, the audience will know. My talent for learning opera is not very good, if I want to present the best stage effects to customers, I have to study hard and practice hard.”

"Your idea is right, but studying hard and practicing hard is not just what children with low talents should do. Those who are talented should not waste their talents to be lazy. So no matter how talented you are, as long as you enter If you have entered this line of work, then take it seriously and do it well, so that you can be worthy of both the audience and yourself." Old Mr. Zhou said seriously.

Although the old man is old and usually kind, but he has acted in martial arts dramas all his life, and when he puts on a straight face, he is still very scary.

Deng Qi quickly bowed and said that he would persist in the future and would not slack off.

Seeing that the judges had nothing to ask, they prepared to step down.

"That classmate, wait a moment." Director Yuan said suddenly.

"Do you know Deng Yongping?" she asked.

Deng Qi was stunned for a moment, and after two seconds of silence, he said, "It's my cousin."

He saw Director Yuan write a few words on paper after hearing his words, and then waved him off the stage.

After Deng Qi, there were only a dozen or so people left. Director Yuan quickly cut through the mess, seeing that there were not many people with real skills, and the afternoon performance ended in less than 10 minutes.

After all the people who participated in the selection competition in the auditorium had left, the judges began to discuss who the ten winners in the afternoon session belonged to.

But the first nine people have been selected, and when the tenth person is reached, everyone has a dispute.

"No matter in terms of appearance or kung fu, this student Deng is very good. I don't think there is any problem in choosing him to be in the top ten. Why do you disagree, Director Yuan?" Mr. Bie asked puzzled.

Director Yuan didn't intend to explain further, he just tapped Deng Qi's name with a pen, "Anyone else is fine, but this classmate...not."

Mr. Bie and Mr. Zhou looked at each other, feeling a little uncomfortable in their hearts, but they didn't show it on their faces.

Mr. Bie smiled gently, "Since Director Yuan thinks this kid is not good, we have to give a reason. Everyone has watched the performances of other people, and it is obvious to all who has the most outstanding ability. If you don't name a suitable one I’m afraid it’s hard to convince other students.”

If it wasn't for not knowing how well the kid sang, the ranking would not have been at the end.

But his basic skills are so solid, he is almost one of the best among the group of people in the afternoon, and his appearance is still rare to see an upright and handsome young character.

This kind of appearance is also very suitable to be used as a representative of their opera cultural heritage.

I said earlier that I couldn't find anyone, but now there will be a suitable person, and you don't want to?

Neither Bie Guoxiang nor Zhou Shichong understood what Director Yuan was thinking.

"Two old gentlemen, it's not that I don't want to choose this classmate, it's that he is not suitable. And even if I add his name, once the list is handed in, it will be blocked during the review. Since I know that I will be rejected Eliminate them, why do these useless efforts?" Director Yuan said.

Mr. Bie and Mr. Zhou saw that she really didn't intend to give an explanation, so they didn't try to persuade her anymore, but they had opinions in their hearts.

If it was their opinions, these people didn't want to listen to them at all, so why bother to find them?
After finalizing the list, Director Yuan did not agree to the principal's dinner invitation, but said hello and left.

The rest of the clerks also left.

After that, Bie Guoxiang and Zhou Shichong came to the opera school frequently and knew the principal and director very well, so they talked for a while before leaving.

"What is the background of that Deng Yongping?" Bie Guoliang asked the principal.

The headmaster smiled mischievously, "You always have sharp eyes."

"That Deng Yongping is not from our Liyuan branch, but he has something to do with SW."

"Three years ago, this Deng Yongping was arrested for corruption and bribery, and was sentenced to 15 years in prison."

In this way, the two of them will understand what it means.

And what happened three years ago, although they didn't care much about these zzz news, they heard about it to some extent.

I just didn't expect it to be so involved.

After Bie Guoxiang and Zhou Shichong left, the principal left with a sigh.

And Su Yue and Teacher Yan are eating outside.

The content of the topic is also that Deng Yongping.

Teacher Yan chatted with Su Yue because she received a text message that she had selected a quota in the afternoon, and seeing that Deng Qi was not there.

"I don't know what Director Yuan meant. Why did you ask about the relationship between Deng Yongping and Deng Qi. I think Deng Qi was not selected, and it was probably because of this." Director Yuan said a little angrily.

Su Yue didn't expect that Deng Qi would lose the election.

Although he didn't sing, compared to the ten people on the list, his basic skills alone were enough to instantly kill them.

Now this is not the final list, why not put Deng Qi on it?

Su Yue knows that the fairness of the competition is often affected by factors that are not objective factors, but it's just a school's selection competition. As for this?

The list came out quickly, and the students who participated in the performance in the afternoon were also very concerned about this, so the counselors notified as soon as they got the list.

It is also for these people on the list to do the final selection tomorrow.

"Fuck, Chen Hongwei doesn't have my old Deng, are those judges blind?!" Lao Fan cursed directly after seeing the list posted in the group.

Jiang Minghao just took a look at him, "Old Fan, you can scold as you please, but don't hurt the innocent! I, Mr. Zhou and Mr. Bie, are definitely not blind."

Lao Fan said: "I didn't say these two old gentlemen, what I said was"

Fu Peng directly covered his mouth, "Okay, you don't think it's messy enough, didn't you see that Lao Deng is in a bad mood, are you adding fuel to this fire?"

Hearing this, Deng Qi smiled while arranging the clothes that had just been brought in: "In fact, I already guessed the result, it's nothing, I'm used to it."

The other five people in the dormitory looked at Deng Qi with a hesitant expression at this moment. Everyone knew how good he was in class, but he was never able to go on stage.

It is not uncommon to encounter such unfair things as today. Before, there were even people who were about to come to power and then replaced him.

The more they looked at Deng Qi's calm appearance, the more they felt wronged for him.

Why?

You are all studying drama, and there are better people in front of you, but you would rather choose those "trash" than him. Can this world be any more unfair?

"Fuck, I'm going to find a counselor, but I want to ask how they choose? In terms of appearance, old Dengby's martial arts students in our class and even the whole school are not bad; in terms of basic skills, I have never seen a few who are better than him. Solid; in terms of voice, Professor Yan, who was so harsh before, said that Lao Deng had a good voice, how could they just brush off Lao Deng like this?!"

Fu Peng, who was still covering Lao Fan's mouth just now, was the first to get out of bed and go out.

"Fu Peng, why are you going? Really not, it's getting late, hurry up to wash up and rest. This period of time has been tense, and it's finally over, aren't you tired?" Deng Qi pulled him back , said with a smile.

"If I don't figure this out today, I won't be able to sleep all night."

Seeing that the others looked the same, Deng Qi let go of Fu Peng's hand, sighed, and sat down on the stool, "Sit down, let me tell you a story."

Jiang Minghao vaguely sensed something, so he couldn't help but walked to Deng Qi's side, patted him on the shoulder and said, "If you don't want to say it, don't say it, even if you don't know the reason, we won't really lose a piece of meat."

Deng Qi shook his head, "There's nothing I don't want to say. I didn't say it before because I thought it was unnecessary, and to be honest, I was a little worried that you would look down on me after knowing about it."

"But you treat me as a brother, so I shouldn't continue to hide it from you and let you stand up for me."

Fu Peng and Lao Fan looked back and forth between the two, not knowing what kind of riddle they were playing.

"Old Deng, Haozi, what are you talking about? Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen?" Lao Fan asked.

"Actually, I should have told you earlier, but I always think that man will win the sky, and there will always be people who will look at my strength and ignore my family background, but I didn't expect that after three years, such a person has not appeared." Deng Qi There was a smile on his face, but the disappointment in his tone was not hidden like before.

The others became more and more curious.
