In the afternoon session, Jiang Lianlian was the second to take the stage.
Everyone encouraged her in a low voice. Jiang Lianlian stood up, took a deep breath, raised her head and raised her chest, and walked out with a determined aura.
An unknown person muttered from the back row: "It's another one-man show from hell..."
All the solo performances in the morning were overturned, causing everyone to have a psychological shadow.
Chang Yun came up from behind and whispered to Xue Xiao in a low voice: "I really didn't expect Lianlian to be so bold after thinking about it that day, and she directly chose to do it alone."
Xue Xiao nodded, and so did he.
Jiang Lianlian's reason for choosing a solo show is very simple - she has obviously signed a contract with a big company and has a lot of supporting roles to play, but she still turned down the contract and shamelessly came to this show with the concept of "from scratch" and amateur costars. The reason for grabbing the opportunity is because her acting skills are so bad and she really needs to study hard.
It was so bad that she was too embarrassed to drag others down. In the first round of the competition, she might as well choose a solo play and think about it carefully.
But Xue Xiao had watched Jiang Lianlian's rehearsal, and he felt that it wasn't that bad. At least Jiang Lianlian had the basic skills of acting. He didn't know why this girl didn't think so highly of him.
Sure enough, after taking the stage, Jiang Lianlian's performance became the best one-person show so far today.
Xue Xiao in the camera is very calm, or very focused.
If his face shows even the slightest hint of disgust or hostility at this moment, it will be captured by the camera and become fodder for speculation.
Lao Gao covered his mouth, wondering if the kid was smart enough to know that he should behave normally at this moment, or...
But I can't give her a higher score - because Jiang Lianlian's performance has no aura.
Su Shijin said to Jiang Lianlian: "It's a good thing to know what you lack. If you have a clear goal, you will run very fast. You have to have confidence in yourself. Come on."
The host Jiang Quan raised the microphone and said: "The next play to be performed is "Praying Mantis", let us invite actors Fan Xue, Wang Minghai, and Hu Lang!"
The audience suddenly became noisy.
After Guan Ruoying was surprised, he smiled at the other three instructors and said: "It seems that we have finally waited for a player who clearly knows his flaws."
She pointed ruthlessly at the actors' bench with her pen.
Several overturners who had appeared in the morning lowered their heads in shame.
The other person who attracted attention was naturally Xue Xiao in the audience - as the rival team, Zhao Dong and Jin Xiaochen were also swept by the camera, but the director team obviously knew who was more likely to stir up topics with whom.
He was a little worried.
Like many actors with basic acting skills, she has become a silhouette and a symbol in the minds of the audience - a symbol of "fairly good at acting" that is an understatement and without much meaning.
She has all the necessary acting skills, and she also has all the necessary emotions. For the performance Jiang Lianlian presented today, it is absolutely no problem to score a 61.
For Fan Xue and his team, Xue Xiao's concentration and seriousness have even improved several levels compared to before. No one can find fault with his attitude at this time.
Jiang Lianlian pursed her lips and bowed deeply to the four instructors.
Backstage, Lao Gao frowned slightly and secretly cursed that some people just like to cause trouble.
The scenes of the old repertoire left, and the scenes of the new repertoire slowly appeared in front of everyone.
The collision between these two people is by far the scene that everyone is most looking forward to. It is what the director team is eager to make a fuss about, so the expression on Shen Tingyan's face at this time is naturally very important.
Su Shijin said: "Is this a big problem for you? It's actually quite big. Sometimes I'm not afraid that the actors' acting skills are not enough, but I'm more afraid that their performances are too crafty. Craftsmanship is the most difficult thing to change."
Some audience members recognized which play it was and cheered.
However, what is surprising is-
Since Fanxue and the others came on stage, Xue Xiao straightened his back subconsciously.
Jiang Lianlian had just finished her performance and her breathing had not yet calmed down. She asked Guan Ruoying: "Then after tomorrow, will the teachers still remember my name?"
On the other hand, Fan Xue seemed to dare not look at him after walking on the stage, and his whole body seemed very stiff.
As she said herself, no one will remember her name tomorrow, and it will even be difficult for everyone to recall her appearance.
"Thank you, teacher."
After Jiang Lianlian came off the stage, the scene on the stage slowly rolled.
Among the actors.
Guan Ruoying asked her doubtfully: "I have seen your past works, and they are not as bad as you said. Your performance today is also very good. Why do you have such an evaluation of yourself?"
One is Shen Tingyan at the instructor's table.
Although they had only known each other for a short time, he could still tell that Xue Xiao liked to express his thoughts on his face and could not hide them at all.
Under the stage, Xue Xiao's eyes moved slightly.
It's a pity that Shen Tingyan's expression has been very dull since the morning's crying show ended, and it's no different now.
Groups of the same play have to perform on stage together, so after Fan Xue finished his performance, it was their group's turn.
"Praying Mantis" is a movie that he has personally starred in. Fan Xue, the most watched among the fifty students, will play the role he originally played.
-finally come!
As the screams suddenly erupted, two people at the scene became the focus of the cameraman.
But it was only 61 points.
"But is your problem really big? In fact, it's not big, because there are so many actors who have problems without knowing it. Even among the contestants who played today, some said that their acting was too bad, but if I Ask them if they know where they died, and nine out of ten won’t be able to tell.”
Or if you are more energetic, you can score 69 points.
She asked Jiang Lianlian this just now, of course, not because she couldn't see the problems in Jiang Lianlian, but compared to the players who had played today, Jiang Lianlian was definitely not "trash".
But Xue Xiao had completely forgotten to be nervous at this time.
He thought to himself that although Fan Xue and his team had many problems during rehearsals, these three people should have solved the problems in two days, right
Of course he hates Fan Xue, but he still hopes that this person can perform well on this stage.
In essence, Xue Xiao does not want the performance stage to be tainted by anyone.
There was no unnecessary self-introduction before the performance. After bowing to the audience and instructors, the three actors walked to the back of the stage.
Fan Xue tried hard to adjust his breathing. Hu Lang and Wang Minghai walked on both sides of him. Hu Lang whispered: "We must act better. The action scenes must be full of energy later, you know?"
Wang Minghai nodded seriously.
When Fan Xue thought of Shen Tingyan, he swallowed nervously.
He had heard that Shen Tingyan had a venomous tongue before, but he never expected that he could be so venomous. He was really a little scared when he was in the audience in the morning.
But you can't freeze, you can't freeze... He hit his arm hard.
He must not be as embarrassed as those actors in the morning!
The big screen came down in front of the stage. The audience was attentive, and many fans were secretly looking forward to it.
The performance catalog distributed to everyone by the program team stated that there were two groups to perform in "Mantis".
Except for Fan Xue's fans who knew some inside information through the fan club, other ordinary viewers didn't know who the three people in the other group would be at this time. In fact, they basically didn't know the other 49 students.
They will come to see the show today. Firstly, they are curious about the program. Secondly, they are interested in Shen Tingyan and the other three instructors. Is there any student they are looking forward to watching? They have to choose, maybe it is really Fan Xue is the only one.
After all, they only know him.
Therefore, no matter whether they have watched Fan Xue's TV series or not, and what they think of his acting skills, these viewers subconsciously felt that Fan Xue's "Mantis" should be the most exciting one in the first round. Repertoire!
On stage, the program crew gave the actors and staff five minutes to prepare.
As soon as the time came, the whole place naturally fell silent, and pairs of eyes watched expectantly as the picture lit up on the big screen.
The word "Praying Mantis" in ink appears on the paper-like white background.
After a while, the black words disappeared and the play officially began.
A building in ruins, on the second floor.
Actor Hu Lang plays policeman Li Xueming. He is leaning on the railing, staring at the body of the kidnapper "underneath" with a gloomy expression.
The camera is focused on him from an upward angle, with every detail on his face clearly visible.
The scene was noisy, and a subordinate asked mutely beside him: "Captain Li, what should we do now?"
Hu Lang tilted his head and shouted:
"Whatever you do, go down and clean it up!"
As soon as this line came out, someone at the instructor's table immediately frowned.
Xue Xiao in the audience also frowned slightly.
The acting is a bit over the top.
Hu Lang may have wanted to portray the majesty of the leader of an action team, but Li Xueming himself is not the type to boss around his subordinates like this.
Wang Minghai played reporter Zhang Yang. He walked over and handed him a cigarette. With a tired look on his face, he said to Hu Lang: "I'm going to see Chen Tao."
Xue Xiao leaned back on the chair, brows puzzled.
Wang Minghai's problem is still the same as in the rehearsal. He is probably trying hard to perform the smooth and sophisticated temperament of Zhang Yang in the original work, but how does he perform it
He was slightly hunched over, and his expression was... hard to put into words, but he seemed to be pretending to be deep.
Maybe it's a little weaker than in rehearsals, but the sense of dissonance is still very strong, which makes people feel very awkward.
The plot went on smoothly, and the camera quickly turned to Wang Minghai and Fan Xue.
Wang Minghai untied the rope around Fan Xue's feet. The legs in his field of vision suddenly stopped shaking. He laughed and said, "Finally calmed down? Seeing as you are usually so courageous, you're not that bad at all."
All the audience held their breath in preparation for that classic scene, and the camera turned and hit Fan Xue in the face.
-It turned out that this person... This person was in a daze? !
There was a slight uproar from the audience.
Xue Xiao's fists began to clench.
In this scene in the original work, everyone would be frightened by Shen Tingyan's eyes!
Chen Tao could hear the whispers of Li Xueming and his subordinates. He knew that he was about to be discovered. The twisted excitement of waiting for the game to reach its climax was terrifying.
But the way Fan Xue looked at Hu Mingyang's back looked like a dull melon-eater!
Not to mention the general audience, even Fan Xue's fans could feel something was wrong with this kind of performance. They were no longer as excited as they were at the beginning, and all of them cautiously restrained themselves.
Then the action scene started, but the scene became chaotic.
Fan Xue "stabbed" the assistant, grabbed Wang Minghai's collar, and pulled him in a twisted way, as if he couldn't lift him up at once. Wang Minghai stood up and "stuffed" himself into Fan Xue's hands.
I don't know what Fan Xue was thinking, but he stopped and sneered at Hu Lang.
—How can you sneer? !
Putting aside the fact that Chen Tao had no time to sneer here, why did Li Xueming stand there stupidly and watch Chen Tao sneer
And why is it a sneer? Even if Chen Tao wants to laugh, it should be a sly smile, a provocative smile. He doesn't hate Li Xueming, he even "likes" Li Xueming!
Xue Xiao raised his fist, and while looking, he unconsciously chewed the knuckle of his thumb with his teeth, his brows knitting together like twists.
The scene going upstairs was even more outrageous.
Fan Xue pulled Wang Minghai, and the two of them stumbled.
Either Fan Xue accidentally stepped on Wang Minghai's trousers and the two of them almost fell down the stairs together, or Wang Minghai tripped over the steps and almost caused Fan Xue to fall down.
Xue Xiao didn't understand, why did he end up like this on the stairs
Why are they charging so hard? If I had been a little more normal and rushed forward, it wouldn't have been such a mess!
Hu Lang, who was behind, saw that the two of them were going upstairs in such a fierce and rough way. It was neither a pursuit nor a pursuit, so he hesitated there.
These three people must have sensed that the car was about to overturn, and they vaguely showed signs of anxiety and collapse.
Fan Xue's cheeks were visibly dripping with sweat.
The entire studio, except for the filming area at the back, was as quiet as a cemetery in the front.
At the instructor's table, Guan Ruoying, Feng Wei and Su Shijin all cast searching eyes at Shen Tingyan.
There were many people in the audience taking a peek at Shen Tingyan's face.
The man looked at the big screen with an indifferent expression.
When Fan Xue screamed again and fell on the stairs, he closed his eyes.
Everyone: I'm going to suffocate, and they're going to suffocate too!
A second later, Shen Tingyan slowly opened his eyes.
Everyone: I can breathe, I can breathe again!
On the big screen, Fan Xue and Wang Minghai finally reached the third floor in embarrassment, but they were so tired that they stopped where they were and took a breath!
Everyone: I'm suffocating again, I'm going to die, I'm really going to die!
Shen Tingyan changed his sitting position.
He felt his eyes hurt a little, but for the sake of his eye health, he looked away from the big screen.
Out of boredom, I glanced down the stage, and somehow, I caught a small pufferfish that was swelling rapidly.
That's right, this time it's not a little light bulb, it's a little pufferfish.
Or to be more precise, the little spiny pufferfish.
Because not only was it swollen with anger, but it also had thorns. The thorns spread out fiercely, which was quite scary.
Shen Tingyan raised his eyebrows slightly, crossed his hands across his chest, and suddenly his face changed into a good mood.
