crush the rich

Yin Lian made everyone start competing for the role of the Mage King.

Note, everyone is meant, including female actors.

This request is simply inexplicable, how could the mage king be a woman?Even though they know how Yin Lian can do it, there are some coquettish operations that ordinary people don't understand, but many mages still feel that Yin Lian is not as popular as a black mage king.

In fact, there have been rumors in the city of sages that Yin Lian is actually the incarnation of Salmadi.There have been different opinions about the final whereabouts of the Mage King and Salmadi.After all, they are mages and goddesses in legends, and many people even think that they may still be alive to this day...Of course Yin Lian doesn't believe it.

She prefers that the power of the mage king and the gods is exaggerated.The unknown is always easy to be misunderstood.

Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to write such a script casually.

However, many mages have always suspected the relationship between Yin Lian and Sharmati, after all, it fits the description in the legend.But if there is a relationship, the mages are a little bit suspicious of how the mage king offended Salmadi back then, and was retaliated like this?

In fact, Yin Lian really didn't have any malice towards the mage king, but it's a pity that this group of mages are too narrow-minded, they just don't believe her.

The storyboard designed by Yin Lian is relatively complicated, and limited by the professional ability of the current Matil actor, her stage design is far more complicated than imagined. The role of the Mage King is destined to be impossible to be performed by a single actor. Instead, several people must collaborate.In order to better express the emotional differences in different scenes, Yin Lian had to make a reasonable allocation of the actor's style.

All in all very complicated.

In this case, it is also necessary to choose several actors with different physiques. Petite women can play the young mage king, and there is no problem.

It's a pity that everyone doesn't understand her considerations very well, so there are many discussions about her decision.

But the strength of the Mage Association makes it difficult for people to directly protest against this decision, at most it is passive sabotage.But no one can be sure if this casting is out of sincerity - if Yin Lian wants to use this method to test everyone's ability and obedience, then if he is passive and sabotages work, it is very likely that he will be recorded in a small book .

Therefore, under various considerations, smart people suddenly made their own decisions.

Yin Lian was very satisfied with their attitude.

After part of the script of the Master King was sent out, the actors were almost fascinated.

There are no decent dramas or literary works in Matil's time, and narrative poetry and folklore are already considered the most popular and popular art forms.Even in the form of music, it is still limited to solo, choral and purely singing and dancing performances.

Even this kind of performance is difficult to see in "barbaric places" like the capital of sages, and most of them are only shown in places like Qingjin Huangdu, and the tickets are expensive to serve nobles and the like. The upper classes are the main ones.

Drama is a completely new art form for the people of Mathil.

In a world where many people have never read a few novels in their entire lives, Yin Lian's script contains the essence of thought far beyond this era. The rhythm of each line is unprecedented, and the performance of each plot is unprecedented. The form is ups and downs, how can this group of performers not be shocked?

If it is a world that already has a perfect form of dramatic art, it may not be able to accept the dramatic style brought by Yin Lian well.After all, there are conflicts between different styles.But because there is no drama in Martil itself, and the capital of the sages is even more exaggerated, basically equivalent to an art desert, so they can accept the drama form brought by Yin Lian without reservation.

In addition, the style of musicals brought by Yin Lian is different from old-fashioned operas. It is more popular and more popular. Although it is not "artistic" enough, it is just right for some people.

The plot, lines, and lyrics of "The Mage King" are very good, which is already the case in modern times, and it is even more amazing in Matil.A performer with a foundation in music couldn't help humming when he saw the score of Qingjin Huangdu Melody:

"Today there is one person / who will become the king of kings / who will decide all this / is the king of the gods / the king is still the king / appointed the fame and power of this world / decades of war / blood and tears have flowed into rivers / today Finally to decide/Who is the King of Kings..."

In fact, this paragraph is still connected with the chorus and the harmony, which has been marked on the score.

【On this day / God will choose who is the king of kings】

【On this day / God will choose who is the king of kings】

These lyrics have profound implications, but many people in Martial do not have such a profound literary level, nor have they passed the test of five years of reading and three years of understanding, so they may not be able to understand the symbols, metaphors, and irony under these lyrics.

These lyrics, civilians and actors themselves may not fully understand if they have not been interpreted by professionals.On the contrary, black sages or political leaders of various countries and preachers of various sects may quickly react to the deep meaning contained in the lyrics when they hear the lyrics.

A powerful church and a powerful god determine all the principles in the world.Are their decisions really just?What happens if it's not just?This musical is derived bit by bit from the story of the Mage King, and the various injustices in the world controlled by the gods (church).

Of course, it is essentially a drama created from the standpoint of a mage.

However, Yin Lian did not wash the mage into a white lotus.In fact, on the contrary, not only did she not clean it up, but she incorporated many records of atrocities and facts about mages in history.There are also completely depraved villains in the mage, but more characters, such as the female mage based on Sister Felice, Yin Lian avoids the important and ignores the trivial, which further shapes her tragedy, her strength and the complexity of her characters.

Sometimes changing the audience's tendencies doesn't require fabricating or revising history, but just using the right techniques in detail.

What's more, in fact, mages are indeed not as terrifying and heinous as the church has portrayed them.It's really not easy to wash mages into white lotus flowers, but if you just want to carry out reasonable artistic processing on the basis of historical facts and shape them into flesh-and-blood characters... that's a question of experience level.

Heihuai Zhu is obviously not inferior to most of the playwrights Yin Lian has seen in this respect.

He has done this job with great success.

Yin Lian divided the actors who were preparing to compete for roles into three groups according to their height, body shape, and voice line. The first group was almost all petite women with only one male teenager; the second group was slender and tall women, and the comparison Thin or young young men; the last group has the largest number, almost all grown men and tall women.

The lines that Yin Lian asked them to sing and recite were also different. Both the juvenile group and the youth group had only one paragraph, while the adult group had several lines to choose from. Although they were not required to recite all of them, the choice was also an unsettling part.

If you make a wrong choice and perform poorly, that is an irreparable mistake.

During this process, Bijialin, the niece and apprentice of the great mage Biluojia, won the role of the mage king in the youth group, and Adaka won the role of the youth group.However, the most important thing is the adult group. Yin Lian has to choose five "mage kings", and the most dazzling performance among them is definitely Yixi from Qingjin Huangdu.

Brilliant blond hair, heavenly singing voice, almost powerful performance and appeal.In Yin Lian's opinion, this person's stage performance is amazing, which cannot be explained by talent.After all, he has been tempered for a long time.

Yin Lian asked: "Did you often perform on stage before?"

His image doesn't look like a bard at all, but if he is from the Qingjin Imperial Capital, the types of occupations there seem to be more diverse, and it is not uncommon to be a singer or a performer.

Ikesi's answer was as expected: "Sometimes I perform in the theater."

Yin Lian thought about it, and let him try to recite a line first.

Ikexi glanced at the lines, but his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, but he followed Yin Lian's instructions and read out: "War, war, war! Who doesn't know it's cruel? But those who participated in the war were prepared to bleed from the very beginning. Preparations for sacrifice. We must never surrender without a fight. What is an oracle? How can it make everyone submit without shedding a drop of blood!?"

Yin Lian felt that Ikexi was not suitable for this image.He lacked some anger from the heart.

She made him read another paragraph.

This paragraph is a line from another period, representing the dark side of the Mage King.He reluctantly succumbed to the instructions of the oracle, but chose to blacken, and even used the oracle to seek benefits for himself.

While here, Yin Lian once encouraged Heihuai Zhu to use a famous line from the original world: "Everything is for the greater good."This sentence has a profound meaning no matter where it is used, and it is full of a kind of sad irony that makes people feel sad.When Ikexi read out this line, he was instantly shocked.

Ixi... Cardinal Anil always felt that everything he did was for a greater good.

Therefore, at the beginning, he could endure the filth of the church, and he could personally clean up the pope who was still above him, and even changed his identity to join the theater troupe in the city of sages.

...all for the greater good.

However, when this line was uttered from the mouth of the "Mage King", everything began to look so different again.

Who on earth wrote such a script?What kind of mentality did he/she hold to write such a script?These deceptive words could have been used in teaching, why did Yin Lian waste it on such a...joke-like performance?

Anil had many questions, and for the first time in his life felt that his intelligence was not enough.

Yin Lian listened to him finish his lines, was silent for a while, and then said: "You are not suitable for this role."

Anil didn't expect her to say that, and was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly came back to his senses."Please allow me to try again," he said.

Yin Lian agreed.

Anil silently read the lines of the script once, and remained silent for a while, as if he was brewing emotions.After a while, he didn't read the script again, but put it away and held it in his hand, but freed his hands, feet and facial expressions.

"Obey the oracle." He said indifferently.

[However, Agas is our ally——]

"Follow the oracle, we can't fight the church army now!" He said again, his tone was cold and expressionless.

[But the king—that was an army of 2000 men... two thousand knights who were brave and brave——]

Anil hooked the corners of his lips, smiled sarcastically, and said, "We have no choice. Follow the oracle! Then send a message to Agas and tell them the news that Kelong bribed the priest! Tell them, despicable José enshrined his daughter to Julian, and they will not spare Coron..."

"Go ahead. All for the greater good."

As he said this, he looked sideways at Yin Lian.Those blue eyes were clear but gloomy, deep but unfathomable, as if looking at the distant place through Yin Lian.

The two stared at each other for a long time, but Yin Lian didn't comment immediately.
