star shift

Tang Liyan struggled to sit up, and solemnly pointed at Pei Shan's eyebrows and the corner of his clothes, "I've wanted to ask for a long time. Your dressing and makeup are quite different from others. But you don't look too much. A maverick."

Pei Shan moved his numb legs, followed Tang Liyan's example, leaning on the back of the sofa, "I learned this from an old friend."

Tang Liyan silently bit the word "old friend" between his teeth, and thought angrily, why did Pei Shan insist on pointing things?Wouldn't it be better to ask directly?Now I have to find something that can fit it, Pei Shan doesn't have much on him.

"Because of work, he often needs makeup." Pei Shanwu said to himself, "And, sometimes...he wears quite bold clothes."

Tang Liyan felt even more irritable, but this kind of heart-scratching emotion was different from just now. Moreover, when he saw Pei Shan raise his head inadvertently, but didn't take back that unusually gentle smile, this emotion was even worse. .

"Is it necessary for work? Is it necessary for going on stage?" The police officer's tone was not very friendly.

Pei Shan's smile stiffened immediately, and his body shrank back as if in defense.The eyes are round and shiny, as if asking "how do you know".Tang Liyan thought to himself that I'm not a fool, no one can see that you flirt with Shi Pei like that.

"Then 'sometime', when is it?" As soon as Jiu Jin came up, Tang Liyan began to think back to the afternoon he and Pei Shan were in the bookstore—sometimes... It can't be the time of making love Shi Peiai Dress up!

Pei Shan faltered and replied: "It's just... he doesn't usually wear it or hide it, but he has been exposed to opera since he was a child, so he will retain similar habits."

"Do you still play opera? I really didn't see it." Tang Liyan lay back on Pei Shan's lap in a fit of anger, his hands still clutching his clothes and refusing to let go. Ability."

"..."

Pei Shan felt that Tang Liyan seemed to have regained some of his usual vigor, and he knew that his mission was successfully completed this trip.But this yin and yang question made him feel that Tang Liyan had guessed something, and his heart kept beating.

The person who was slandered still had a straight face, pointed to the paper bag on the ground, and said, "What's going on here? Let's start from the time you met Shi Pei, don't interrupt."

Pei Shan didn't understand why the topic suddenly jumped to Shi Pei's head, and he was full of question marks: "That's the script, "Long Summer" that I worked with Director Shi on. As for the two of us getting to know each other, it was in the N drama club."

"Be more specific." Tang Liyan interrupted.

Pei Shan didn't dare to make people unhappy, so he could only add obediently: "When I was a freshman, Director Shi was considered a man of the hour. He likes to ponder some avant-garde dramas, and the tutor is famous for 'stocking' students. So he went to the provincial troupe as an intern since his sophomore year. We were doing experimental drama together with the drama club in the auditorium of N University. In fact, the script was not very delicate, and there was no financial support. However, in such a stage design called It’s a rough place without any packaging, and there are still a lot of audiences.”

Not only was Tang Liyan not interested in these things, he could even be said to be repulsive - after Li Feng left, he instinctively separated his world from them - but now hearing what Pei Shan said, Tang Liyan actually wanted to know more, Suppress the inexplicable dissatisfaction in my heart, and get to know a more complete Pei Shan.

"The audience are all students of your school?" Tang Liyan asked.

"Most are, and some are members of other folk theater troupes." Pei Shan said proudly, "N University's small theater is very famous, especially the students' experimental dramas, which often get a lot of unconditional support."

"We have cooperated in four dramas in total. The longest time is to line up the New Year's drama. I followed their rehearsal situation and changed the script, and the time director was planning the stage design and positioning. He is really versatile. I can only write, and he It can act, it can design, and it can turn words into highlights on the stage."

"The place where we rehearse is an abandoned student dormitory. In winter, the wind is blown back, and in summer there is no air conditioning. The director of the drama club at that time—also the male lead of the opening drama—took a supporting role in a film and television drama. I have been queuing here for five months. Fortunately, the premiere was very successful. The largest auditorium in the school was full of seats. Everyone stood up and applauded, and everyone shouted 'encore' and 'bravo'. We even joked at the celebration banquet of the barbecue restaurant He said, "Maybe that TV series became popular, and the president will definitely regret it." The president laughed at that time, saying that whoever mentions the word "regret" will be a grandson! I will also do dramas in my life. , to go on a national and even world tour.”

Pei Shan imitated the president's demeanor, dancing with hands and feet, and couldn't hide his joy inside and out of words.

Looking at this scene, Tang Liyan couldn't help but feel sad—why he didn't meet Pei Shan earlier, and he didn't have much chance to see the cramped but romantic little theater they talked about, let alone the possibility to replace Shi Pei and become the capable The people who stood by his side.

"So where is the president now?" Tang Liyan asked, but his eyes were focused on Pei Shan's expression.He saw that Pei Shan was not the same as usual, but a rose infused with blood.

"Being an actor, the brokerage company is very powerful." Pei Shan picked up the soda water and clinked glasses with Tang Liyan. "He later met with the director of the Provincial Theater Troupe, but he didn't say hello. He should be acting in a big drama." A movie about changing IP. Director Shi asked him, if he is free, would he like to go back to the barbecue restaurant in N University for a drink, drink Niulanshan, talk about the past few years, and talk about the opening of the new year."

"They must not have gone back." Tang Liyan interjected.

"Well, I didn't go." Pei Shan nodded, "The president said that the barbecue restaurant is real estate, so it can only be opened for five years. But youth cannot be regenerated."

"He said he regretted it."

Tang Liyan had heard the name of the drama that was rejected. It was a popular TV series in the summer. From the protagonist to the supporting role, everything had a lot of exposure.

"It's normal." Tang Liyan could only sigh.

"It's normal." Pei Shan smiled, "After all, there is only one chance."

"What about Shi Pei? I mean, you all like him, don't you? At the dinner table, everyone rushed to give him money." Tang Liyan didn't hide his displeasure.

Pei Shan didn't know how to describe this old partner, but when Tang Liyan wanted to distract his attention, he talked more: "Shi Dao...in fact, he has a lot of ideas. He likes to cut scenes into pieces, and his lines are not so easy I understand, but no one would deny that it is beautiful—can you believe it? His first entry was a one-man show. There was only one follower light on the entire stage, and the only prop was the chair in the middle of the stage. There were three repetitions in the whole process. The lines are all relying on the heroine to use emotions and body to push emotions. Competition, dare to play like this? We all said at the time, is he crazy. "

"Fortunately, that scene was staged in the underground theater of N University, and the response was very good, and it won a gold medal. At that time, there was still a teacher from the Provincial Theater Troupe sitting in the audience, so both he and the heroine were taken away. For a It’s a great place to be for recent undergraduates.”

Tang Liyan didn't want to hear Pei Shan happily praise Shi Pei, so he interrupted: "But he resigned."

"Hmm. Maybe it's because there are too many creative constraints. I heard that he was removed from the co-writing drama because he questioned his predecessors." Pei Shan said this, his voice lowered significantly, "Not every place is like an ivory tower. So tolerant. If his one-man show was arranged by the provincial theater troupe and sold tickets in the market for a performance, the attendance rate would not even reach 10%."

"Now he has finally realized that the drama market is cold. If he wants attendance, he needs hotter elements. But he can't let go of his figure. In the end, he loses money himself, and we are worthless for him. I think he is more I trust the screenwriter, but even so, he will change my script a lot, and then come to me and ask me if this is too much—”

"He's actually very awkward, and he likes to wrestle with himself." Pei picked up the soda, and the tiny bubbles inside seemed to shatter with his words, like a sigh, "To put it bluntly, he insisted on what he wanted to express. On the one hand, it is troublesome that no one appreciates it. It may be because he has not studied the market carefully. His plays are too selfish. However, even if it is a diamond, no one is willing to dig in the dirt. Everyone wants to show it in a beautiful window. Let’s watch a well-packaged work.”

Tang Liyan didn't have a good impression of Shi Pei. Hearing Pei Shan's praises made him feel even worse, and said sourly, "He's stupid. Won't he compromise a bit?"

Pei Shan smiled and said, "That's why we have "Long Summer"."

"We have revised the script of "Long Summer" at least fifteen times." Pei Shan went on and on as soon as he mentioned the script, "Although I may not be qualified to say this, Teacher Shen and I have the same idea. This The theme of this time is not as cold as before, and the male protagonist invited also has traffic, my pen name and Mr. Shen’s studio are not bad at present, and the investors have given enough funds... I think Director Shi’s this time The play will be very successful."

"Why does he have to smash into the theater?" Tang Liyan frowned, "If he is really that capable, would it be easier to do something else before coming back than he is now?"

"Speaking of which, Director Shi got into this business because of a drama." Pei Shan put down the drink in his hand and tied his half-length curly hair loosely behind his head. After that drama, I changed my major.”

"Really?" After listening for so long, Tang Liyan was also aroused by Pei Shan, sat up straight, and asked, "Which one?"

After waiting for more than ten seconds, Tang Liyan only heard someone outside the window yelling in surprise, and someone following behind shouting something, like arguing or chasing.

It is performed every day and every night, the trivialities and pyrotechnics that belong exclusively to Yancheng.

Pei Shan withdrew his attention from the window, raised his hand and pointed to the photo on the bedside table, and pretended to say casually: "You may be more familiar with it. The title of the play is "Unfortunate Life."

"The director is Teacher Li Feng from Ningda University."

None of the expected beer spilled or knuckles pinched.Pei Shan was extremely nervous. He looked at Tang Liyan cautiously, but found that the other person didn't seem to be angry. He just lowered his head and paused, then picked up the can again, and opened it with a snap.

Pei Shan thought that Tang Liyan was going to refuse to talk about this matter, but unexpectedly, he put the can to his mouth and stopped again.

"He." The foam in the bottle was broken, making Tang Liyan's voice indistinct, "Yeah. I'm an old acquaintance."
