Chapter 17: Act III Rachmaninoff

Views:

Ever since Wang Qingyun said that Xiang Gu is a "little swan", Xiang Gu's honest hands have moved...

He emptied the mentally retarded dog emojis on his mobile phone, and collected a lot of silly photos of swans from the Internet.

[Meng Dog Kai Mai] becomes [Meng Goose Kai Mai], [whispering barking] becomes [whispering quack]... Xiang Guai racked his brains to find expressions that can be matched one by one, and is immersed in the joy of P expression packs every day among.

Although the Great God Wang Qingyun has not spoken in the group for a long time, Xiang Gu believes that one day, the Great God will be able to see what he has paid for!

In the dog emoji package, there is a gif called [dog shivering]. On the picture, a corgi hides his head under the sofa cushion, only showing a big round butt that looks like bread, which makes people think Knead with your hands. This [dog shivering] represents nervousness and fear, and is one of Xiang Guai's most commonly used emoticons.

It's just that it's hard to find a photo of a swan that corresponds to it. He searched and searched, and finally let him find one.

In the photo, a white swan fell to the ground for some reason, with its webbed upwards and its long neck innocently stretched out. Its butt was aimed at the camera, its tail hair exploded, and it looked pitiful and ridiculous.

Xiang Guai decided to make this swan with its butt up as an emoji package, with the words [goose shivering]...

His mobile phone was so old that it would freeze for half a minute just to open the P-picture software.

The photo of the hipped swan was frozen there, and Qi Ji looked over and exclaimed, "You are so coquettish!"

Xiang Guess: "...???"

He asked aggrievedly: "Why did you scold me?"

"No, no." Qi Ji hurriedly explained, "Haven't you watched "The Temptation of Going Home"? Don't you know Hong Shixian? 'You are so sassy' is a classic line in it, look at this tender goose , showing your ass to the camera, how suitable for this sentence on P!"

"..." Xiang Gu's age is when idols are the heaviest. At the beginning, he told Qi Ji that he liked listening to radio dramas, but now he told her that he had watched "The Temptation to Go Home". "Just... just Hong Shixian, who doesn't know? I just didn't react."

He seemed to fill in the four words next to the tender goose, but he felt so guilty that he didn't dare to look at the innocent little eyes of the goose.

… if only it ended here.

Five minutes later, a message suddenly popped up on Xiang Guess's phone.

Bright Cloud: guess, are you there

Yiming Qingyun: I have a demo here, which is an animation dubbing I recorded for my friends.

Yiming Qingyun: Listen to it and give me your opinion.

Yi Ming Qing Yun: But this demo is going to be used to participate in the competition, so you can only watch it yourself, don't pass it on to others.

Yiming Qingyun: [Share video]

It is Wang Qingyun sama! ! ! ! !

Yunda invited him to listen to his demo! ! ! ! !

And only, let, him, one, one, people, look! ! !

Xiang Guai was surprised. First, he nodded to the phone stupidly, and then he hurriedly went through the emoticons, trying to send an emoji like [quack cry] [goose flying nine days] [swan nods] to tell the god that he would definitely Listen carefully, and then write an eight-hundred-word long comment.

As a result, the phone was stuck, and his hand shook...

guess: [Upside down and tender goose-you are so sassy].jpg

A sing-along: …

A Ming Qingyun:

Xiang Guess: "… "

The boy's eyes went black - and before he fainted, he hurriedly withdrew that weird expression.

Tan Yiming, of course, saw it.

On the other side of the ocean, Tan Yiming looked at the stupid swan with difficulty turning over on the screen, dumbfounded. His nerves, which were originally tense to the extreme, suddenly relaxed after seeing the emoji.

That feeling... It's like in a marathon, every two males will set up a water mist gate. When you are the most nervous, most excited, and most uncontrollable about your own affairs, water mist falls from the sky, cooling your whole body and making you awake.

Now is not the time to sprint at full strength, it is better to pay attention to the road under your feet rather than the distant goal. If you lose your calm now, how will you face the long journey ahead

Tan Yiming pressed his finger on the picture and just wanted to save the goose, but the kid on the other side of the screen had already withdrawn the emoji.

The screen was full of apologies from the children, saying that he shouldn't have made such a weird expression.

Tan Yiming recalled the swan with its butt pouted, and felt that it was not to mention the weirdness, but the gayness of the gay was real.

Yi Ming Qing Yun: Don't be nervous, don't apologize.

Yiming Qingyun: I'm not your teacher, nor your superior, I won't take you away because of a meme.

Yiming Qingyun: And,

Yiming Qingyun: That saucy goose is quite cute.

guess:…

guess: [goose weeps].jpg

Tan Yiming was telling the truth, he didn't know where Xiang Guai got so many quirky swan emojis, and the words next to them were particularly vivid.

The little swan on the other side of the screen didn't know whether to believe it or not. Tan Yiming saw the "inputting" prompt flashed for a long time before he saw a sentence pop up.

guess: Yunda, I'm going to do morning work.

guess: Can I listen to the demo you sent me tonight

guess: No, I'll listen to it at noon today! !

Bright Cloud: It doesn't matter.

Yiming Qingyun: You can listen to it when you have time.

Yiming Qingyun: I'm not in a hurry.

He is now… really not in a hurry.

A bright cloud: Just don't pass it on to others.

guess: [Swan nods].jpg

guess: Yes! This is mine alone!

guess: I won't give it to anyone else!

At this moment, Xiang Chai has an exclusive secret, and this secret only exists between Wang Qingyun and himself.

He packed every piece of memory about Wang Qingyun into a candy, and then carefully collected it and placed it in the deepest corner of his heart.

The first candy was called "Little Swan".

The second candy is the mysterious DEMO.

The candy fell into the sugar bowl with a crisp sound. He wondered if the candies would continue to increase. Maybe one day, the candy will fill the candy jar, and he has to change to a bigger jar to hold it; it is also possible that the number of candies will stop there, but that's okay, only two is fine.

Xiang guessed that he finally understood why Qi Ji became obsessed with "two dimensions" - pinning his feelings on a distant and untouchable object would really make people forget the troubles of reality.

And the candy related to Wang Qingyun is the best gift and the best pain reliever.

Xiang Gu put away the phone, and the good mood continued until after the early work was over.

After the morning homework, there was a full morning of vocal music class. As everyone expected, in the vocal music class, the teacher announced that the musical for this semester was "Rachmaninoff".

Musical actors need to be good at singing, dancing and acting, but not all musicals need dancing.

For example, this "Rachmaninoff" is a pure musical stage play. The whole stage play has only two actors, one plays Rach and the other plays his friend Dr. Dali. All the soundtracks in the play are adapted from Rach's own piano works, and the singing is very difficult.

"This show has two male protagonists."

"The writer and composer are both fans of "Rock Mozart" and pay tribute to the idol."

"Looking at the role list, it's really tiring. Dali still has to play three roles by one person."

"Those who come out of the small Korean theater are all capable people who work hard."

"How about you, do you want to play Rah?"

"Rach wants to play the piano live, and he sings while playing. I'm still Dalí. Dalí plays the violin, and I think my violin level is good."

There were buzzing discussions in different corners of the classroom.

Everyone was discussing the grouping matters. Xiang Guai looked around and found that every student around looked so confident.

And he, a blank sheet of paper.

It turned out that the musical was Korean, he thought it was Russian.

What is a small theater musical? And what does it have to do with Rock Mozart

Why should one person play so many roles, can't we add a few more actors

… Xiang Guai sat in the seat with his back straight, these questions swirling in his mind, he wanted to ask, but he couldn’t open his mouth.

It's not about courage, it's about self-esteem.

Xiang Guai started four years later than his classmates. He once thought that the only thing he had left behind was professional classes, and as long as he trained and practiced every day, he could make up for his vocal skills and line performance.

But now he finds that what he lacks is the accumulation of four years of knowledge. For others, they're talking about basic common sense, hand-in-hand and effortless.

They talked eloquently, about avant-garde drama, about the small theater movement, about the localization and transplantation of musicals, and about those well-known directors and producers from China, Korea, and Japan.

Xiang Guai could only straighten his ears, quietly write down the words they mentioned in a notebook, and prepare to ask Baidu after returning to his bedroom at night.

As for the acting partner...

The male classmates in the class all looked away after meeting his gaze.

There is no way, the Ballet Prince is too famous and his appearance is too outstanding, no matter who is in a group with him, he will be suppressed by him. In the past, they could still comfort themselves that Xiang Gu couldn't sing, but Xiang Gu was born with a good voice and worked hard. In just two months, his singing level has improved so fast!

This is a two-man drama! Who wants to be reduced to a supporting role beside him

The singing and dancing major only admits one class every year, with twenty-eight students divided equally between men and women. And Xiang Gu, who transferred in midway, was the twenty-ninth extra.

In two or two groups, there will definitely be one left.

Seeing that he was alone, Qi Ji took the initiative to say, "Xiang Guai, why don't you join my group? We can assign Dali's other two roles to you."

Her partner is another girl in the class, and they jokingly call themselves the "Ji Qingsi" version of "Rah".

Xiang Guai looked down at the score in front of him, a two-hour musical with nineteen songs.

There is no intermission, and the two actors will sing on the stage to interpret the fragments of life of a generation of music giants.

"No need." The boy raised his head, and there were twinkling stars in the corners of his eyes. "—Whether it's Rach or Dalí, I can sing by myself."
