Chapter four hundred and thirty seventh acquaintance
The winter cold has finally faded. Although Beijing is still very cold now, it is not as bitter as before. The temperature has gradually warmed up, and it has the smell of spring.
The re-examination of the Peony Award began at this time, and the theater was on the edge of the Third Ring Road in Dongcheng District. He Xiangdong and Xue Guo's work in the art troupe was also suspended, so they could also participate in the competition with peace of mind.
Ding Jinyang and Guo Yunchong also successfully entered the re-examination. The level of these two young people is quite good, but they are so lively.
These four people have been with them. They are all people with little money and can’t afford a car. They even feel very painful to take a taxi, so these people all took the bus, which is really low-carbon and environmentally friendly.
After arriving there, we drew lots first. He Xiangdong and Xue Guo were lucky. They drew in the morning and went directly to the backstage with the staff.
Ding Jinyang and Guo Yunchong were in a bad mood. The afternoon they drew was that because the theater was relatively small, the artists in the afternoon could not come in, so they could only wait outside.
There are also artists who are at the evening show, so they have to wait even more, but because it will be their turn for a long time, they can find a place to rest first.
According to the plan, the crosstalk rematch will be completed today, so the program arrangement is very tight.
The competition regulations require that the crosstalk performance time cannot be over twelve minutes, so so many people can finish the performance. If you throw it at Xiangwenshe, the crosstalk will not end within half an hour, so I really don’t know when it will be better.
The backstage of this theater is very small, and fortunately, the crosstalk actors don’t have many props and don’t need to put on makeup. If they change to the actors who are helping with the opera, the backstage will be squeezed to death.
It's already quite messy now. He Xiangdong and Xue Guo don't even have a seat. They looked at each other and smiled bitterly. So, I'll put on my coat and go on stage later. Don't put on makeup. I'm almost crazy here.
When he was busy, someone shouted anxiously: "Where is a makeup artist, what about a makeup artist, hurry up, I'm going to go on stage here, come and put some makeup on me quickly."
A male makeup artist was next to He Xiangdong to put on makeup. He didn't look back when he heard this. While putting makeup on the actor, he replied: "You wait a little bit, we put makeup on the actors in the order of appearance. Please wait a moment, we will be fine right away."
But the actor couldn't wait: "In this way, you come and draw me first, okay, I have a sore on my face, maybe I'll have some trouble, so I'll melt it first."
The male makeup artist was a little impatient. Today, there were only three makeup artists, all of whom were taking turns. Why did Jiasaier have any questions? "Please wait a little while, okay? We came in order."
The actor stopped doing it, stood up and said, "Hey, I said, why is it so difficult for you to talk to?"
He Xiangdong and Xue Guo were standing in the room. I saw the person who stood up. He was really an acquaintance, Zhao Fenghua.
He Xiangdong was so happy. Why is this person everywhere? Beijing City is really small.
The male makeup artist Yi was putting on makeup on the actor in front of him, but ignored Zhao Fenghua. This man had a pretty good temper and didn't argue with him. He was completely cold-handed.
But Zhao Fenghua felt a little uncomfortable on his face. No matter how he said that, he was a famous actor. This man ignored him completely. He was angry and said rudely: "Hey, is it OK? Give me a word."
He Xiangdong shook his head and looked at Zhao Fenghua and said loudly: "Teacher Zhao, you have a very bad temper."
Zhao Fenghua frowned and seemed to be stunned when he heard this. If he said who he hated the most in the crosstalk world, then it must be He Xiangdong, and he would almost hate He Xiangdong and he would almost hate him crazy.
He Xiangdong was also very annoyed by Zhao Fenghua. It was not just because he was taking the blame on someone in Xinxiang last time, but because he had ruined his reputation outside before. Although He Xiangdong didn't explain anything, it did not mean that he was not angry.
Now that he encountered this incident, He Xiangdong immediately spoke out, and he was too lazy to bother with others to worry about it.
Zhao Fenghua looked at He Xiangdong with gloomy eyes and his face completely lingered.
The crosstalk actors in the room were all watching the two of them excitedly, waiting to watch the show. They all knew that the conflict between the two was quite large.
He Xiangdong's face was extremely calm, but he just looked at Zhao Fenghua with a faint smile.
Zhao Fenghua looked bad, and snorted coldly from his nose. He looked at He Xiangdong's eyes deeply. Then he looked at the male makeup artist who talked back to him. He took a few deep breaths, suppressed his heart and said in a deep voice: "Please try to put on makeup as quickly as possible. I have a sore on the corner of my mouth when I get angry. I was not so anxious. I was mainly afraid that it would affect the performance. It would be bad if the audience was dissatisfied with it. Okay, you are busy first, I will wait for a while."
The male makeup artist still didn't look back, but just replied softly with a very calm voice: "Okay."
Zhao Fenghua sat back.
This disappointed the crosstalk actors who were preparing to watch the fun in the room, and the plot did not follow their imagination at all.
He Xiangdong shook his head and sneered. Zhao Fenghua really couldn't change his shit, and he always had this kind of destiny everywhere.
He Xiangdong was sure that Zhao Fenghua dared not turn against him because he was in the wrong. Whether it was his last time he took the people in Xinxiang or his subsequent behavior of destroying water, He Xiangdong was in the right position.
Now He Xiangdong has a backer behind him, and he has gained some fame in the crosstalk circle, but he is no longer the small character that can be controlled by others.
The actors present looked at He Xiangdong and Zhao Fenghua. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, "It's really a thing that is falling." He Xiangdong looks like Zhao Fenghua's nemesis. What have they done before? Zhao Fenghua, who was still angry in front, immediately withered. It's really a good show.
Things just passed like this, and He Xiangdong didn't care so much, just let it go.
Huo Mingde was also in the backstage, and he looked at He Xiangdong and smiled slightly.
He Xiangdong also saw him. This man was much more haggard than when he saw him at the Spring Festival Gala. His flesh on his cheeks was deeply trapped in, and he was very depressed.
He Xiangdong didn't know what he had given birth to. It's been a long time since he saw him. Why did this person go like this? He and Xue Guo looked at each other, and the two walked towards each other.
"Teacher Huo, what's wrong with you? Why have you lost so much?" He Xiangdong asked.
Huo Mingde smiled bitterly and tiredly, and looked at He Xiangdong and said, "I'm fine, we're meeting again."
Seeing that someone didn't want to say it, He Xiangdong stopped asking, and he said, "Yes, you're pretty good."
Huo Mingde nodded: "It's okay."
"Haha." He Xiangdong also laughed dryly. He was not a very talkative person, especially in front of unfamiliar people.
Xue Guo said: "Okay, you guys are busy first, let's talk after the show."
Huo Mingde smiled slightly and reminded him with kindness: "Okay, but if you still perform traditional crosstalk, you may suffer a little."
He Xiangdong narrowed his eyes slightly. He also learned from Chu Cheng about the last preliminary review that many judges now hate traditional crosstalk.
"Is traditional crosstalk really not funny? Do the audience really don't like it? I'm afraid only the audience can decide this point." He Xiangdong narrowed his eyes, and a sharp light flashed by. To be continued.
