A good relationship is one thing. On the stage, the only goal of each regiment is to win.
Unlike the previous visits, this competition is not as easy as performing your own songs, and everyone is immersed in their own training.
Many members are the first to come into contact with a certain style of stage.
If you want to perform a song well, you must first understand the meaning of the song and the story behind it. Therefore, the first preparations made by each group are similar. For example, 1billion watched the movie "In Eternity" with the same name of the episode again, and found out the emotions that the song and choreography should have.
The choice of infinite9 is also very challenging. "The Uncrowned King" is well-known internationally, but like "The Phantom of the Opera", many viewers are only familiar with the name of this musical, and it is not clear what story it actually tells. .
The difficulty of training mainly lies in the understanding and study of musical theatre. At first, the members had the idea that Qin Lu's acting skills gave them a stage bonus that other teams did not have. This was their absolute advantage and must not be let go. And this is the first time they have come into contact with this type. In fact, the stage is originally divided into many types. Since you have the opportunity to try, don't miss it.
But after they really started to contact and try to perform musicals, infinite9 realized that this choice was actually a little impulsive, which brought more pressure to them. Musicals are completely different from the stage they usually perform. Although the forms of artistic expression are the same, the techniques covered are vastly different.
"Our rehearsal time is the same as other teams, but we need to take the stage set and lighting into account during practice. Don't forget that." Han Suyan simply pointed out the key points.
Qin Lu has been in touch with stage plays, and the two are similar: "The emotions to be expressed and the characters to be played are very important, and the lighting effects of the scene will match the mood changes to indicate the direction of the story, so we must first understand the story narrated in "The Uncrowned King" , as well as capturing the characteristics of the characters.”
They start by quickly getting the story clear.
"The Uncrowned King" tells the story of an ancient legend that the young king of heroes is actually a pair of brothers, the elder brother Selbo is knowledgeable, and the younger brother Nautilus is brave and good at fighting, but they wear the same mask because of a prophecy to show people until before the bar mitzvah , the world does not know that they are actually two people.
The prophecy is that if both are brought up as adults, the kingdom will be destroyed, and only one of the two can choose to stay, and the king could not bear to kill his own son, and only said that he had killed one of them.
The two grew up together, had an excellent relationship, and acted tacitly. They not only defeated the coveted enemy country, but also expanded their territory.
Until the secret that had been concealed for several years was betrayed, the king was killed, the younger brother was betrayed by the people around him after the end of the last war, and after nine deaths, he lived in all directions, and the man who became the king of heroes was an unfamiliar name called Nake White.
He thought that his brother had already been killed, and was very sad. He entered the palace after being dormant for several years, and found that the youngest hero king in history who bears someone else's name is Selbo.
Life is too ironic, and the memories of once pure happiness, which are constantly beautified with the pains that fall into them, are all false.
The musical is based on Nautilus as the protagonist. The selected clips are after untold hardships and bloody battles, and after entering the palace, they find that the object they want to avenge is a close relative who has never suspected.
The blank interlude is the most important part of Notis's complete psychological transformation. Holding the sword, Notis, the puzzlement, absurdity, anger, and hatred in his heart gradually turned into ridiculous and peaceful. Thinking of the pain he had experienced over the years, he cut off the last trace of family affection and killed him with his own hands.
He did not inherit the throne, leaving behind countless legends of the legendary Notis, who put down everything and disappeared from people's sight.
The story is not complicated, but it is not so easy to make the audience who don't know the plot roughly understand the story in just three and a half minutes.
Fortunately, Qin Lu will always be a booster for infinite9.
They methodically first carefully reviewed and pondered several existing versions of "The Uncrowned King", and then made adjustments and adaptations based on them.
The content needs to be shortened, and at the same time, it needs to be more explicit!
Teamwork will solve problems more smoothly under the premise of mutual understanding.
Halfway through the training time soon, the training of each regiment has begun to go on the right track, including Hualin, who has been in a low-pressure and irritable state a few days ago.
During that time, Pei Jiangsheng often went to the Hualin to hang out. In fact, he was worried, but Pei Jiangsheng could never speak properly: "Hey Alin, you have dark circles under your eyes, isn't it too uncomfortable not to see me?"
Hua Lin was taking a can of coffee from the refrigerator, he raised his half-long hair irritably with one hand and swept back his half-long hair, and opened it with a half-second "snap" with the other hand, and stared at Pei Jiangsheng with a gloomy eyelids. After drinking the coffee in front of him, he pinched his face expressionlessly.
He didn't blink: "Yes. I'm very uncomfortable."
Pei Jiangsheng: "...I suddenly remembered that I have to go back beforehand. I wish you a good mood."
Qin Lu came out of the kitchen with tea. He was just in Pei Jiangsheng's blind spot, so the other party didn't notice that he was there.
Hua Lin turned his head blankly and stared at Qin Lu.
Qin Lu took a sip of tea and calmly reassured: "... it will be fine."
Hua Lin's brows twitched, "um", and turned to go upstairs.
that night.
Qin Lu has not endorsed since Hua Lin "reminds" him. For the musical, he has been practicing his left hand except sleeping these days.
The musical couldn't just stand still, he needed to practice turning his right hand to his left.
During this period of time, I couldn't do the questions originally, just for the practice needs, so when Lu Xi went downstairs, he saw Qin Lu seriously lowering his head and writing with his left hand.
The two have already formed a habit. During this period of time, in the evening, they will stay in the living room for a while after training. The time is not long, and sometimes they do their own things and don't even talk much, but the atmosphere is very relaxed and reassuring.
Qin Lu spent twice as long as usual to finish writing a geometric body carefully and slowly. The font is not as neat and beautiful as usual, and it looks a little crooked.
He sighed silently, and when he was about to continue practicing, there was an extra earphone in front of him.
Lucy handed him the bluetooth headset on one side, smiled and nodded the other side he was wearing, "Help me listen to it? I just made it up."
Lucy has always been in charge of the arrangement of 4seven. Maybe it's because he likes this song very much. In the past few days, Lucy has changed countless versions, but he still can't finalize it. He always feels that something is missing.
Qin Lu took it over, and the music started playing automatically the moment he put it on.
Arranging is the soul of a song. It is obviously the same melody, but it has a completely different taste from the original song.
Lucy is a natural idol, not only in stage performance.
Qin Lu didn't speak directly. He listened to the music and continued to do the questions. His left hand, which was still inflexible after practice, became smoother with the notes.
After listening to it, Lu Xi didn't ask Qin Lu what he thought, just moved his aching shoulders easily and decided to use it.
Because the corners of Qin Lu's mouth rose when he listened to the song.
the other side.
Qin Yihan once again received the on-site ticket sent by her brother.
Last time she went empty-handed, this time Qin Yihan felt that she had to prepare somewhat. She customized Qin Lu and Lu Xi's aid light cards on the Internet. When the seller confirmed to her that they wanted to make two light cards instead of one with two names on them, she double-checked with a dark face.
She plans to lift whoever is on the court at that time and become an excellent water-handling master.
The seller obviously thought she was a CP fan, so she wondered why she had to customize it separately.
Qin Yihan has a black line on this, she is the absolute only fan of the stubborn! ! !
Qin Lu is a family member, and there is only one idol!
This time, when I "asked for leave" with Qin's mother, Qin Yihan was ready to take out her brother's light plate with her backhand: "Mom, as my brother's number one fan, I am still bound to be there this time to cheer him on!"
Qin's mother looked hesitant.
Qin Yihan thought that this reaction was wrong, so she decided to work harder: "Mom, you look at my brother's name and have the heart to not let me go!"
Qin's mother: "... your brother's name is Lucy?"
Qin Yihan: "..."
She nodded slowly and stiffly.
Ah, got it wrong.
She closed the light sign with a snap, smiling dryly and pretending to be stupid.
He died before he got out of the apprenticeship.
"Mom, listen to my explanation!"
