Chapter 24 You two act together
The classroom was briefly thrown into disarray.
A group of students surrounded Lin Hao, bombarding him with all sorts of questions.
What role did you play?
"Zhen Zhibing".
"...That Zhen Zhibing?"
"Yes, that one."
There was a two-second silence, and then everyone's expressions subtly became the same.
That kind of "I see" realization.
Considering the act of "smelling the bottle" in the video, and the attributes of Zhen Zhibing's character, everything makes sense.
One of the bolder boys even asked, "So, how did you find that... sniffing-the-bottle look? It feels so realistic."
"Just smell it," Lin Hao said innocently. "I just put the bottle under my nose, take a sniff, and that's it."
"No, I mean the emotion. How did you manage to get into the zone so naturally?"
"Smell it a few more times and it will become natural."
"..."
Li Hao coughed twice on the podium.
"Alright, alright, everyone's curiosity has been satisfied, so please go back to your seats. This student's performance was indeed excellent, but our class is more important."
Although he was verbally maintaining order, the smile in the corner of his eye betrayed him.
The results were even better than he had expected.
The students' attention to this lesson was at its peak.
For the next hour, Li Hao gave a systematic explanation of "gradually reaching a state of excellence in opera performance," covering every aspect from body posture and singing style to facial expression management.
Although Lin Hao was there to listen in, he listened very attentively.
Although traditional opera and film and television performance are two different systems, they share many common underlying principles.
In particular, regarding the establishment and maintenance of "state," the methodology of traditional Chinese opera is more systematic than that of film and television performance.
This will definitely help him understand the character of Dong Yong.
After class, the students gradually dispersed.
Huang Shengyi didn't leave immediately, but instead moved closer to Lin Hao.
"Hey, you still haven't told me. What exactly do you do? You're not a student at the Beijing Film Academy, yet you're here attending Professor Li's class and even acting in a film directed by Yu Min..."
Her tone was filled with intense curiosity.
In a place like the Beijing Film Academy, there aren't many people who can pique her curiosity.
"I came to learn something from Teacher Li to prepare for the audition for my next film," Lin Hao briefly explained the situation.
"Next film? What film?"
"It's completely unrelated. I'll tell you after I've passed through."
Huang Shengyi looked at him for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed.
"Okay, then give me your contact information."
"what?"
"How are you going to contact me if you don't give me your contact information? I might have to rehearse for a show in the next few days, I'll contact you when I'm done." She pulled a Nokia phone out of her pocket, waving the screen at Lin Hao. "What's your number?"
Lin Hao hesitated for a moment.
This girl's enthusiasm came a bit suddenly.
But then I thought, getting to know another person from the Beijing Film Academy isn't a bad thing.
Networking is something that is built up little by little through these unintentional interactions.
So he gave his number.
After Huang Shengyi finished saving, she waved and walked away with light steps.
Lin Hao watched her retreating figure and sighed silently in his heart.
He now has three female contacts in his phone's address book: Yang Mi, Liu Yifei, and Huang Shengyi.
Although my relationships with everyone are normal, healthy, and pure.
But if Yang Mi finds out, she'll most likely be furious.
Forget it, I don't want to.
Let's get down to business first.
Lin Hao walked towards Li Hao's office.
The office was small, but it was filled with all sorts of books and materials related to traditional opera.
Several stage photos from performances are pasted on the wall, giving them a strong sense of age.
Li Hao was tidying up the things on the table when he saw Lin Hao come in and waved with a smile.
"Come, come, sit down."
After Lin Hao sat down, Li Hao first routinely praised him for Zhen Zhibing's good acting.
Lin Hao is completely immune to praise like "Zhen Zhibing acted well".
Every time he heard this, his mind automatically translated it as, "You're such a pervert, you're really good at acting."
"Guo Zhenzhen told me everything about your situation." Li Hao adjusted his glasses and got to the point. "It's 'The Fairy Couple,' a classic of Huangmei Opera. If you want to audition for Dong Yong, just reading the script isn't enough. The essence of this character lies in Huangmei Opera; you have to understand it from its source."
"So for the next two weeks, you'll be coming with me."
"Following you?"
"Yes, practice with me. You don't need to practice to the point where you can perform on stage, but at least you need to understand the performance style and emotional expression of Huangmei Opera. That way, when you play Dong Yong, you'll have that spirit deep in your bones."
Lin Hao nodded, finding it to be very reasonable.
Li Hao continued, "Coincidentally, there's an event in ten days. It's about students performing a play at the Capital Theatre for the general public. I plan to include 'The Fairy Couple' in it."
"Add it in?" Lin Hao was taken aback.
"Yes. You'll play Dong Yong and sing a classic excerpt from 'The Fairy Couple.'" Li Hao said matter-of-factly. "It'll give you some stage experience, and a little pressure will help you practice harder."
These words were spoken lightly, but Lin Hao sensed their weight.
Capital Theatre.
Targeting the general public.
That wasn't a training room or a film set.
It was a proper public performance venue with an audience and where people would evaluate it.
He was singing Huangmei Opera on that platform?
He's a film and television actor, singing Huangmei Opera at the Capital Theatre?
What's the difference between this and sending Zhen Zhibing to participate in Super Girl?
But then Lin Hao thought about it again and realized that this was precisely a good opportunity.
If he can portray Dong Yong well on stage, he will have more confidence during the audition.
Furthermore, if the system's "possession" ability also applies to stage performances...
He had a question on his mind.
"Teacher Li, is there any payment for this performance?"
Li Hao was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
"You're still thinking about money, huh? Yes, the school gives a token subsidy, about two or three hundred yuan per game."
Two or three hundred yuan.
Although the amount is small, the system can theoretically function as long as there is payment.
Although a skill level of two or three hundred corresponds to the lowest tier, combined with his own foundation and experience from his previous life, he should still be able to produce a decent effect.
Worth a try.
"Okay, I'll go."
"Okay." Li Hao nodded in satisfaction, then changed the subject, "During class just now, you sat next to Huang Shengyi. Do you two know each other?"
"We just met today."
"That's perfect." Li Hao's smile suddenly turned meaningful. "The Fairy Couple is a duet, so Dong Yong needs a Seventh Fairy Maiden. Huang Shengyi has a good image, dance background, and decent singing skills. We'll have her as your partner, and you two can sing together!"
Lin Hao's expression froze for a moment.
He and Huang Shengyi sang "The Fairy Couple" together at the Capital Theatre in front of the audience.
"The couple returned home together..."
The thought of that scene is absurd.
