Reborn Bao Guowei, I really didn’t want to be a great writer!

Chapter 314: The Shawshank Redemption! The birth of a legendary drama!

The stage plot lasted nearly three hours, but it still failed to present the entire content of the play "The Shawshank Redemption".

Even so, the audience in the audience could hardly hide their excitement.

As the background music sounded again.

The plot of the second act quietly ended with the conversation between the protagonist Andy and Li De.

During the conversation, Li De asked the protagonist why he was so hopeful and motivated, and Andy left a sentence as the final ending of the second act.

"Either you are busy living or you are busy dying!"

On the stage, actor Andy's lines resounded throughout the entire hall, deafening!
As the sound falls.

The second act is over.

The curtain slowly drew down.

The lights gradually dimmed.

The venue was silent for half a minute.

Before the applause started, Cao Yu, who was standing backstage, was already excited. He wiped his tears with his sleeves and looked at Bao Guowei and said.

"Success sir! We succeeded! After several months of hard work, The Shawshank Redemption was finally put on stage and performed successfully! I am so excited."

The young Cao Yu still had a bit of awkwardness on his face, but that excitement was something he couldn't fake.

For Bao Guowei, it may just be an attempt, but for Cao Yu, the meaning of this drama is completely different.

This was the first time Cao Yu staged a play in his life, and it can be said to be his debut work.

It was his first play that he collaborated with a famous writer like Bao Guowei, so the pressure on him was enormous.

I wanted to give up many times, but I couldn't let go of this excellent script "The Shawshank Redemption".

From the moment he saw the script, Cao Yu wanted to present the plot perfectly to the audience and convey the courage of hope to the bullied people in the Republic of China.

Let the people of the Republic of China who have lost hope know that they can bravely pursue hope like Andy.

As soon as the rehearsal of the drama began, Cao Yu encountered many difficulties.

From casting to the harassment by Chen Dezheng at the Golden Theater, the most difficult period was the time when Bao Guowei was in seclusion.

Cao Yu seemed to have lost his backbone and had no idea what to do.

He once felt that the play "The Shawshank Redemption" was about to be stillborn.

Even after everything was ready, when the play was performed, it was booed by the audience and not recognized by the industry.

Now, he is already very satisfied.

Seeing Cao Yu's excited look, Bao Guowei shook his head, thinking that young people nowadays are really immature.

Is this kind of small scene so exciting?

But when he thought about it, he seemed to be a few years younger than him, and the expression on his face couldn't help but become a little strange.

Bao Guowei patted the other person on the shoulder and pointed to the stage in front.

"Don't get too excited yet, the really big thing is still to come."

"what?"

Cao Yu was stunned for a moment.

The show ends with the actors taking their bows on stage.

There was an explosion of cheers from the audience in front of the stage.

There were thunderous applause, cheers, and exclamations from many academics.

The shouts kept coming and going.

"An Di!"

"An Di!"

"An Di!"

The actor who played the main character, Andy, couldn't help but cry with joy. His body was shaking a little, and he kept bowing to the audience in all directions and almost fell down several times.

Lin Yutang exhaled, clapped his hands, and said with a smile on his face.

"Bingwen finally did it. I knew he could do it. He is a guy who always brings us surprises."

He turned his head to look at Xun Ge'er, as if seeking his evaluation.

But surprisingly, Xun Ge'er still frowned and remained silent.

This immediately made Lin Yutang feel uneasy, and he couldn't help but ask with some concern.

"What's wrong, Brother Yucai?" Could it be that Brother Xun didn't like it? Or was there something wrong with the play?
Lin Yutang thought about it carefully, but still didn't feel there was a problem.

But while he was thinking, he heard Xun Ge'er say something lightly.

"I'll go back first. I need to finish a manuscript."

“???” Lin Yutang was even more confused. He looked at the excited audience behind him, and then at Xun Ge’er, who was a little thin and had messy hair but always had a straight back. It formed a sharp contrast.

Seeing Xun Ge'er gradually walking away, Lin Yutang spoke up.

"Brother Yucai, don't you want to go see Bingwen?"

Xun Ge'er stopped and the folds of his blue cloth gown in the darkness reflected a little bit of the light from the stage.

The picture seemed to slow down, and Xun Ge turned around slowly with a smile on his face.

Lin Yutang had never seen Xun Ge'er so happy.

I just heard him say.

"After reading it, I feel inspired and I rush back to write an article. Bingwen can be seen often, but once the inspiration is gone, it will never come back."

Lin Yutang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled helplessly.

"You, you! You gave me a fright!"

Of course, compared to the reactions of Xun Ge'er and Mr. Lin Yutang, there were people who were even more excited.

Earlier, Mr. Ouyang Yuqian stopped Mr. Hong Shen from lying on the edge of the stage, muttering something.

"Old Hong, you are a professor, you should have some self-control. Even if you are excited, you can't show it so obviously, right? We need to be calm and composed so that we can look at this work rationally. In this regard, you are not as good as me."

But at this moment, Mr. Ouyang Yuqian seemed to have completely forgotten what he had just said.

Just as Hong Shen was stunned on the spot, he was saying something.

"Can a play be performed like this?"

Yun Yun.

The agile Ouyang Yuqian has already climbed onto the stage.

I started chatting with the actors who were about to leave the stage.

"Classmates, you actually recognized me? Yes, yes, I am Ouyang Yuqian, an insignificant character, at most a veteran in drama."

"Tell me, how did you come up with this role?"

"Everyone, please don't be restrained. You all performed very well. I, Ouyang Yuqian, also need to learn from you."

"Would you like to act with me in the next play?"

"Students, how did you present this effect? ​​Was this performance detail your own idea, or was it your director Cao Yu's idea, or was it Bao Bingwen's idea?"

The students were all college students, and many of them knew Ouyang Yuqian, so naturally they all responded enthusiastically.

The students' evaluations were very objective.

The effort put into the rehearsal was put in by Cao Yu, and he is irrefutable in this respect. He is a director admired by everyone and possesses unparalleled professionalism.

But many groundbreaking ideas were all thought up by Bao Guowei. The students, who were originally acting according to the routine, felt a little uncomfortable at first, but they did not expect that it would have such good results.

After understanding the situation, Ouyang Yuqian took a deep breath and couldn't help but sigh.

"Is it Bao Bingwen again? A play can actually be filmed like this."

Just when he was still thinking about looking for Bao Guowei.

A man's voice came from behind.

"Good job, Ouyang Yuqian, you look so graceful when you see the curtain call!"

He looked back and an embarrassed expression suddenly appeared on his face.

"Where is Bao Bingwen? I want to see him!"

Hong Shen walked over carelessly, breathing out through his nostrils.

Seeing that something seemed to be wrong with the other party, Ouyang Yuqian couldn't help but pull Hong Shen and persuade him.

"Hey, Brother Hong Shen, why are you on stage too? Don't get angry. It's normal for young people to be a little flamboyant. As an old man, you should be more generous."

He also thought that Hong Shen was angry about the "apprenticeship" matter.

Yes, who knew that Bao Guowei could really make such a good drama?

Now Hong Shen really wants to become a disciple. Haikou, which has collapsed before, can no longer be recovered. What should he do?

Surprisingly, Hong Shen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who told you I was angry?"
