Hu Delin's eyes widened as he glanced at the stage, then at the security camera behind him.
"What … What's going on? Why do I feel like he's blended in with his surroundings? "
Yang Xi didn't reply to Hu Delin and continued to watch quietly.
On the stage, Chen Guang's voice sounded.
Suddenly, Yin Fei felt an inexplicable sense of resentment. "Ping!"
She felt indignant. She felt that Zhou Ping was purposely avoiding her. She didn't even look at her when she came in and only cared about greeting Zhou Chong.
Chen Guang turned to look at her. "Oh?"
Then he paused. His throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton, and he didn't know what to say.
He lowered his head evasively. From the details in the security camera, Zhou Ping's gaze drifted slightly towards Zhou Chong. It was very subtle.
All of this took a long time to describe, but it was a small detail that took less than three or four seconds.
He shifted his feet slightly, pretending to shake off the non-existent dust on his shoes. Then he looked up at Fan Yi and said, "You … You're here too."
Fan Yi's gaze drifted slightly towards Zhou Chong. After making sure that Zhou Chong wasn't looking at her, she looked up slightly and said, "I just came down."
As she said this simple line, her gaze drifted, but she secretly gave Zhou Ping a sense of resentment. Her tone hid a coquettish pout that only lovers could understand.
She seemed to be resentful. Why are you avoiding me? Why do you want to leave?
It was a simple sentence, but it hid a lot of complicated things in the past.
But at the same time, she had to be wary of Zhou Chong and not let him see through her.
This desire to speak, full of hidden bitterness, this shameful act of stealing chickens and dogs, was all hidden in the words' I just came downstairs'.
Chen Guang's body trembled slightly when he heard Fan Yi's words. His stiff movement was caught by the high-definition security camera, but it also happened to avoid Zhou Chong's attention. He deliberately turned his head and asked Zhou Chong, "Father didn't go out, did he?"
Chen Guang purposely paused after the word 'father', as if to answer Fan Yi's complaint, to express his own confusion, and to warn Fan Yi.
This was still a secret hidden between the two of them, a secret that only they could understand.
But Zhou Chong didn't seem to notice. He turned to look in the direction of the study before replying, "No, are you going to see him?"
Hu Delin, who was behind-the-scenes, was so excited that he couldn't speak. "When the young man turned his head just now, there was no accent at the back. This is really a stroke of genius!"
Yang Xi also said, "Also, when Yin Fei said 'go downstairs' earlier, that almost imperceptible tremble in her voice was simply too amazing!"
"Director Yang, have you noticed that Yin Fei and the others are completely immersed in their roles? It's completely different from its previous state! "
Hu Delin said excitedly, "We've been rehearsing for a few days, but she's never been so immersed in the role!"
Yang Xi nodded. "That's right. They're already in the middle of the movie and can't get out."
He knew exactly what was going on. This was what was truly terrifying about Chen Guang.
When he was immersed in the role, there would be an invisible realm with him as the center, completely enveloping the people and things around him.
He could attach a layer of the soul of an era to lifeless scenes and props, and he could even make the people around him completely lose themselves. Their souls would involuntarily overlap with the character they were about to play, allowing the character's true self to completely overwhelm the actor's true self!
This was probably what he meant by world-class acting.
A world of its own!
Yang Xi had no idea how Chen Guang did it, but he was absolutely certain that it was the truth.
Chen Guang never bragged, but when it came to acting, he was really amazing beyond imagination.
Yang Xi would never understand that Chen Guang was able to achieve such an achievement in acting because he had lived in the world of acting countless times and reached the highest realm that only others could achieve.
He could use his seemingly subtle movements, his exquisite micro-expressions, and his small movements that were so vivid that people couldn't tell if it was a play or a real life, to control everything around him.
His voice, which seemed to have a magical charm, and even the frequency of the vibration of his vocal cords, could completely merge himself with the role, and then ruthlessly extract the role from the story, turning it into real life, and covering his stage.
Yin Fei and Zhou Chong's actors couldn't understand the secret behind it, but it didn't matter. The moment Chen Guang opened his mouth, they were pulled into the realm of world-class acting.
They didn't realize it at all, but they had already lost themselves, as if they had been possessed by the character in the movie.
This wasn't because of Chen Guang's terrifying hypnosis ability, but because actors like them were trying their best to act as someone else in their subconscious.
What Chen Guang did was to use his world-class acting skills to influence others, to maximize the subconscious of the actors, so that they could completely change from acting as someone else.
While Yang Xi was in a daze, Hu Delin, who was next to him, bowed his head and frowned. It wouldn't be long before it was his turn to go on stage.
After witnessing Chen Guang's performance with his own eyes, Hu Delin, a veteran actor, had been unknowingly brought into the role. At this moment, he was no longer himself. He had become the mine owner Zhou Puyuan, who was still annoyed and depressed by the recent strike in his own mine, and was also having a headache about his good-for-nothing eldest son.
Yang Xi and Hu Delin weren't the only ones who were truly shocked.
The eyes of the hundreds of people in the small theater, who had been yawning, lit up when Chen Guang appeared.
Some people wanted to see him make a fool of himself, some were afraid that their idol would be embarrassed, and some had an indifferent attitude. In their hearts, they had already sentenced Chen Guang's version of "Thunderstorm" to death.
This was just a boring copy of a classic. Whether or not Chen Guang could continue acting, this play was just a ridiculous play by a local tycoon. It couldn't leave any trace in the history of art. Perhaps in the future, it would become a topic of conversation and a laughing stock.
Although the actors on stage were professional, they were very reserved. They were just copying everything from the past, and there was nothing new.
They even began to whisper rudely under the stage, just like the bald president and vice president. There were even some people who didn't like the play and were just here to watch the fun, thinking of leaving.
Until Chen Guang appeared, everything seemed to change in an instant.
On the stage in the style of the Republic of China, the exquisitely made props became dimmer without warning, giving people a strong sense of simplicity.
Even the stage lights became gray, as if they were looking at an old painting that had been stored for 20 or 30 years.
But what really changed was the state of the actors on stage.
Fan Yi's cheating failed, and as a stepmother, she cheated on Zhou Ping. Now, she was facing the fate of being hated and abandoned. The complicated pouting and resentment when she spoke to Zhou Ping instantly made the hearts of those who understood the play race. This was a completely different state from before!
Even those who didn't understand the play were aroused by her soft words.
Beijing.
Big Beard Deng stood up from the sofa. He still had a cigarette in his mouth, and the lighter in his hand was still emitting orange flames. His beard was almost burnt, but he didn't seem to notice.
Jiang Yage and Jin Shiyue, who were originally curled up lazily on the sofa, had already sat up straight. Their bodies were stiff as they stared at the TV, blinking their eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Unlike others, Jiang Yage and Jin Shiyue had known Chen Guang for a long time, and they had seen Chen Guang's "tragedy" on the set of "Tears for a Country Will Run".
But they weren't like Yang Xi, who had seen how Chen Guang used his perfect performance to prove himself.
Their view of Chen Guang was still stuck at the level where he could make the whole screen suffer from the cancer of embarrassment.
So Jiang Yage and Jin Shiyue were originally like Big Beard Deng, the most firm representatives who believed that Chen Guang's acting was not reliable.
But what did they see now? What an incredible scene!
Yin Fei was completely taken in by his performance!
Although Yin Fei wasn't particularly famous in the circle, she was considered a veteran in the field of drama. In the past, Jiang Yage and Jin Shiyue had seen Yin Fei's performance live. They knew that this veteran was limited by talent. Although she was diligent enough, her overall level had stagnated and she couldn't improve.
In the acting industry, although more learning, more practice, and more thinking could make up for the lack of standards to a certain extent, it was still an industry that relied on talent.
Everyone could act, but whether they could perform the desired effect in front of the camera or on the stage, to the extent that it didn't feel like they were acting, depended on whether the performer could understand the requirements of the director and the script, feel the state of the character, and perform it perfectly.
Some people needed to deliberate painstakingly, but some only needed to look at the script, find a corner to think about, ponder, and completely grasp the state of mind of the character. This was talent.
After all, the upper limit of a person's level on the stage was determined by their talent.
Yin Fei was a qualified and competent actress, and she was very talented among ordinary people. But she was not young anymore, and her upper limit was already there. Otherwise, she would have become famous a long time ago.
Unless she was able to encounter some kind of life experience that allowed her to gain enlightenment, it was impossible for her level to change too much in a short period of time.
But now, Yin Fei looked so talented and dazzling on the stage.
In the eyes of ordinary people, they saw the role of Fan Yi.
But in the eyes of professionals like Jin Shiyue, Jiang Yage, or Big Beard Deng, they saw the actress Yin Fei herself.
There was only one explanation, Yin Fei was influenced by someone else, and she was brought into the play by someone else.
It was impossible to play the role of Zhou Chong. Although this young man was a talented senior in school, many of his juniors were envious of him, because of this and that, he performed poorly in this play. Sometimes, Yin Fei had to guide him, and he barely managed to stay in the play.
As for the others, Xi Lu, who had already appeared on the stage, didn't have this ability. Although she did her job well, when it came to driving Yin Fei in the play, she was still miles away.
The other passers-by, the old people and children at the opening, Lu Gui, Lu Dahai, and Hu Delin, who only had a few lines but never showed his face, didn't have this ability.
There was only one explanation, and it must be Chen Guang who was also on the stage at this time!
He was like a bright lamp, illuminating the whole stage, and the people and things that were shrouded in his light were forcibly pulled out of this world, and returned to the story described in the novel, which happened a hundred years ago.
The medium-sized stage was still there, and it was still on the television, but time seemed to flow backward in that part of the world.
That was the world of "Thunderstorm".
That was Cao Yu's world.
That was also Chen Guang's world!
The people in the play all came to life, and what we saw was not the play, but the life of the people in the play!
