When they arrived at the theater just in time for the opening, Lin Yu asked the staff to take them in through the safe passage. When they entered the theater, the lights were all turned off, and the actors had already appeared. They bent over and walked through the gap and sat in the first row. ,

Four hours, whether it is long or short, Xu Nankai showed his talents on stage, his acting skills can only be said to be better than before. With the growth of age, after the age of forty, The charm of a man is like brewing wine. It slowly smudges and ferments, becoming more mellow. The experience in his eyes and the upbringing of his speech will only increase his points. With good maintenance, he looks like he is in his early thirties.During the intermission, Wu Xiufang and Xu Jiacheng couldn't bear to go out to eat first. Xu Zhizhen sat on the seat and played with his mobile phone. During the period, Lin Yu's assistant was ordered to deliver a bag of McDonald's takeaway to Xu Zhizhen. He quickly put down his mobile phone to thank him .The assistant Cheng Shu was young. He waved his hand and sat beside him, "I'm Mr. Lin's assistant Cheng Shu. Mr. Lin sent the old man and the others to dinner. I came from the city center and brought you something to eat."

Xu Zhizhen was indeed hungry. Looking around, there were not many people eating, so he paused for a moment, "Would it taste good to eat here? I'll eat at the entrance of the passage."

Cheng Shu slapped his head, "That's right, I forgot it was a formal performance, I thought it was a rehearsal...Then I'll accompany you."

The two of them stood at the entrance of the staff passage, Xu Zhizhen took a piece of hamburger to eat, and shook the bag to Cheng Shu to signal whether she would eat it or not.Cheng Shu shook his head, "I've eaten it, you can eat it."

During the intermission, many people went to the bathroom, and most of the people in the rest of the seats were looking down and playing with their mobile phones. Xu Zhizhen took a few extra glances, and Cheng Shu smiled and said, "Aren't there many girls?"

Xu Zhizhen observed it, indeed.

He bit the hamburger, a little puzzled, and looked at her.

Cheng Shu smiled, "Teacher Xu has attracted a lot of fans in the past few years, most of them are young girls. You are from Central Opera, so you should know about fans, right? Teacher Xu is a good person. He has won many awards in the past few years. That’s enough, I’ve gained fans again in the past few years, and selling tickets is much easier than in previous years. In addition, this drama has actors joining, so it’s rare to be fully booked.”

Xu Zhizhen nodded thoughtfully, and wiped the black pepper sauce on the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, "That's good, the fans who can buy tickets are the best."

Cheng Shu nodded in agreement, "It's not easy for Teacher Xu, and it's even more difficult for Teacher Lin. Everyone is very happy to see that the seats are full now."

They chatted for a while, Xu Zhizhen ate a hamburger and a pair of hot wings, and after the second half of the performance, they went to their seats to continue watching.In the second half, Wu Xiufang and Xu Jiacheng didn't come, Cheng Shu just sat in his seat and watched with Xu Zhizhen.

After communicating with Cheng Shu, Xu Zhizhen found that his observation angle was indeed a little different.The audience in the first few rows indeed had a higher proportion of women, especially Xu Nankai screamed in a small area after changing clothes, which had no effect on the stage, but it was obvious to them.

He propped his chin on the Coke straw, feeling a little bit emotional, the current era is gradually becoming dominated by fans, and more fans means more traffic, which can make more money.No matter which circle it is, it is applicable to any circle. I don’t say much about the entertainment circle, but the original cold drama circle has gradually become like this. It is a good thing, but it is not necessarily a good thing. If it can bring positive guiding and promotional effects, it will naturally be excellent. Yes, as long as you don't get involved in some miscellaneous fan disputes.

After walking away and paying attention, when he came back, it was already the climax scene, so he changed his sitting position to watch.The intuitive feeling of watching in the front row is more profound. Drama is different from acting. Its high fluency is smooth, timely and explosive, and immersive acting that cannot be distracted. It needs to bring the audience into the setting in the shortest possible time on a limited platform. In the occasion, whether it is physical strength, lines, or acting skills, there are high standards.And it is more delicate, the audience can fully see your whole body and facial expressions in the front row, you need to immerse your whole body, but any discomfort will be obvious.

This is both difficult and interesting.It is interesting and challenging only if it is difficult. He held his chin, feeling a little moved.

At 10:30, the drama officially came to an end. The actors came up one by one to thank them, and bowed at the end.

It took a while for the quarrel to officially end. The audience got up and left the seat one after another. Xu Zhizhen and Cheng Shu sat in their seats and chatted for a while.

Xu Nankai was removing makeup in the dressing room, with a stack of photos and notebooks in hand, and the makeup artist was making his face, and he quickly finished it with a marker pen, and the assistant next to him quickly took the photos and handed them out.

He walked over and called, "Dad."

Xu Nankai looked over, raised his lips and smiled, with shallow creases at the corners of his eyes, "Here we come. I saw you, sitting in the first row. Where are your grandparents?"

He found an empty seat and sat down beside him, "Mom took them to dinner, I don't know the rest."

Cheng Shu interrupted, "I just asked Teacher Lin, the two old people are tired, so they went back to the hotel to rest."

"That's good." Xu Nankai kept his hands on, and changed the notebook after signing the photos, "I'll take you back after a while, do you want to have a supper? The crew will have a supper tonight, if you want to eat, I will accompany you there."

Xu Zhizhen shook his head, "No need, it won't be long after dinner."

"Well, I have to go to Shanghai tomorrow, so don't sleep too late today. Lao Zhang, Xiaokang, don't play too late tonight. Don't forget about the train tomorrow afternoon. Xiaocheng, you will spend the next few days tomorrow. I brought all the rented cars there and returned them, so you can go to Dahua too, you don’t have anything to do tomorrow, just return the cars, and remember to go to Shanghai in the afternoon.”

The assistant next to him said "Okay" and went out with the signed autographs in his arms. Just as the makeup was removed, the makeup artist packed up and was about to leave. Xu Nankai glanced at Xu Zhizhen, "I'll change clothes, you will wait a while .”

"Ah."

The end of the show is actually very fast, but the day after tomorrow is still lively. The other large dressing rooms are full of excitement. The actors are talking and laughing together, complaining about what they did not do well today, and work harder next time; I also said that I will go to the Shanghai show tomorrow, and the Shanghai show is bigger than the Nanjing show Quite a few, somewhat nervous.This is Xu Nankai's dressing room for one person. After the assistant got off work, he became quiet. Xu Zhizhen chatted with his mobile phone for a while. Zheng Cheng called him to go online to play games. He said he was not free and would go back to the hotel later.

——By the way, I just searched for your dad’s drama, and the response was good.

——Really? Haha, thank you. The last show is in Beijing. I invite you to watch it.

——Oh that's great

- fart

Xu Haishun also praised a few words and asked if he could have an autograph.

Xu Zhizhen yawned and replied - of course, it's not easy.

Xu Nankai changed into his normal clothes and came out, hooked his car keys and took Xu Zhizhen back to the hotel to rest.On the way, Xu Nankai asked him, what do you think of the play?

Xu Zhizhen's typing hands paused, put down the phone, and said seriously, "It's an industry that needs to be studied seriously."

Xu Nankai nodded in agreement, "Not only that, serious research may not necessarily lead to good results, opportunities and luck are also inevitable. But the most important thing is your own efforts. As long as you live up to the time, no matter how late, it will not getting over You."

Xu Zhizhen was silent for a moment without speaking.

"Drama... Originally, your mother and I wanted you to come together, but your grandparents didn't agree very much, so I still want to see your thoughts. You are still young, and you haven't decided which way to go in the future. High school Your mother and I didn't care about you, and we were very surprised when we chose an acting class. Our Xu family has four generations, and your great-grandfather used to be from an opera troupe, but it was different at that time. The opera troupe was not respected by others. Well. But it’s different now, the entertainment industry is so booming, everyone wants to get involved, and the status is very different. When I first joined the art troupe, I chose drama without hesitation. It’s not because I like it so much, it’s just that I I only know this way out, not to mention that your grandfather also did this, there is no other way out.

"As for you... I thought about it, and I don't force you anymore. It's not like before. Now all roads lead to Rome. I don't want to restrict you. You can be admitted to the performance class of Central Opera, which means you I have this talent, and I am also a person who eats this food. Whether it is acting, drama, or musicals, they are all in the same family. For example, I will meet the director in two days. He is an old friend of mine. I have known him since we were in the art troupe. Yes, I have been working hard in Hong Kong, and I have survived these years. It is not bad for you to go to the mill. There is a way out. Since you can no longer get off the boat, we as parents can only try to help you refer to the analysis and steer the helm. I will give you all the resources I can.”

After waiting for the red light, Xu Nankai looked at him with gentle eyes, "We have never cared about you, and I feel somewhat guilty. We were all busy when you grew up, and we couldn't give you anything except money. In the past few years Your career has also improved a lot than before, and it’s even more difficult to take vacations. You’ve grown up, you’ve gone to college, and you’re on this path, then we can give you more than just money, and we will try our best to help you if we can pave the way for you. One, but you still have to work hard on your own. If you are not strong enough, it is useless. We are not rich people. In the entertainment industry, we can only find contacts. You are still young. Characters sharpen you. In dramas, you can come to our troupe to find roles, but that’s all. In the end, you still need to speak with strength.”

Xu Zhizhen also looked at him, paused for a while, said "um", and then said, "I know."

Xu Nankai sighed softly, looking at the flashing car lights in front of him, and the bright neon lights on both sides, he felt somewhat emotional, "You are a sensible child, I know it all. This road is difficult, and it doesn't mean that you are able to walk down the road. It can be successful. But there are many definitions of success. Being famous means success, winning awards means success, having more A-corners means success, and having more fans means success. It depends on how you look at it. Dad’s age is enough to achieve what he is now I am very grateful, I am actually not as good as your grandpa, but your grandpa was born in a bad age and did not perform many works. Fortunately, gold is always gold, and he was posthumously awarded the Lifetime Art Award. Every year, so many schools invite him to give lectures, This is also a kind of success. He is old and his body is not good. Your mother and I want him to perform again because we want to make up for the regrets of the year. Thousands of people on and off the stage applauded him."

He was silent for a moment, "Once you have experienced it, it is difficult to come back. There is always a gap in your heart. Although we haven't talked, I know he must still have that dream in his heart."

The night was lonely and the road was long. Xu Zhizhen lowered the car window, and the evening wind blew in, caressing his cheeks.

He nodded slightly and said "hmm".
