Chapter 158: Sign for it

The actors on the stage took a short break, and then began to assign lines for the second act. Several people talked to each other for a few minutes and began to rehearse the second scene...

In fact, Qian Bin is quite capable. It can be seen from the way he deploys and arranges personnel on site that he is very good at using people.

When the formal rehearsal started, Qiu Huoming put down the pen in his hand, stood up and stretched his limbs.

It will be noon by the time this scene is finished.

Qian Feng whispered, "There are no performances today, so we can do as much as we can here..."

Qiu Huoming sighed, rubbed his wrist, and then sat back down. "Brother Qian, please bring me a bottle of ink. My pen is running out of ink."

"Okay, I'll get you a few more notebooks." Qian Feng ran backstage.

After a while, he came back with a bottle of ink and two notebooks of the same model as his.

Qiu Huoming soaked the pen with ink, twisted his neck, and continued to revise the script with his head down.

The actors on the stage seemed to have found the key to the play and gradually got into the mood.

Qiu Huoming's third chapter has just been revised.

All I heard was Qian Bin shouting on the stage: "I'll treat you at noon, everyone take a break, and continue in the afternoon..."

Qian Feng muttered, "It must be hot dry noodles, with at most one serving of soup."

Sure enough, an hour later, three people came in with a grunt. One of them was carrying two bamboo baskets filled with layers of hot dry noodles, and the other two were each carrying a large soup pot.

We eat backstage, otherwise the smell of the food would be too strong and we would be scolded by the theater director.

When Qiu Huoming ate hot dry noodles again, he no longer felt as surprised as he did last night. The soup was still spicy soup. It was quite convenient to scoop a bowl of soup after eating the noodles. The restaurant owner would take back the bowls, chopsticks and soup pot. In this era, environmental protection is the main focus.

After dinner, everyone took a rest backstage.

Qian Feng sang several songs coquettishly with his guitar, attracting several girls to look at him sideways.

Until Qian Bin yelled, "Stop playing, it's too noisy. If you have the time, why don't you learn from Xiao Qiu? He never rests when he is revising the manuscript. Where is your music?"

Qiu Huoming then raised his head and stretched his neck. He was leaving tomorrow, otherwise he would not have worked so hard. But Qian Feng was scolded for no reason. He glanced at Qian Feng, then stood up awkwardly, picked up his guitar and went to the corner, silently arranging a song.

Several girls at the scene burst into laughter.

There are more girls than boys in the chorus, and they generally like to chat during the intermission. Several of them originally wanted to ask Qiu Huoming about the situation, but seeing that he was busy, they gave up.

After a while, Qiu Huoming heard them start talking about clothes and jewelry...

Qian Bin went out for a while and came back half an hour later. The afternoon rehearsal began again.

Qiu Huoming took the script and walked towards the stage with them.

The script has been completely revised. If there are no problems during the rehearsal, I will ask Qian Bin to sign for it, and my part will be completed.

The music on the tape recorder sounded, and the heroine began to sing in the rain, with several supporting dancers behind her, and the sound of rain dripping all around...

The male protagonist walked over with an umbrella in his hand. The moment they met, they seemed to notice something. They looked at each other affectionately, and then looked away together, but the umbrella was hooked.

The male lead turned his head to look at the female lead, who slowly approached with the melody, and they "tapped" their shoes together with the melody...

They are indeed professional actors, their gestures are full of charm, their lines are sophisticated, and their musical sense is excellent...

What was most lacking in the 80s was, of course, romance. People who had just emerged from poverty didn't have the energy for romance. But that doesn't mean they didn't want it. This is one of the reasons why some love movies were so popular in that era.

The interaction between handsome men and beautiful women on the stage and the beautiful music heightened the atmosphere...

Sure enough, in the end, they lived up to everyone's expectations and reconciled...

Qian Bin's eyes turned red as he watched, and he said several times in succession: "Okay, okay!" His voice was a little hoarse. After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Qiu Huoming.

Qiu Huoming glanced at his watch. This was the third time they had rehearsed the final scene. It seemed like everyone was very satisfied with the final revision.

It's already 6 o'clock in the evening. The noodles I had for lunch had long been finished, and I'm feeling a little hungry now.

Qiu Huoming saw Qian Bin looking at him from across several actors. He could probably guess what Qian Bin was thinking at the moment. He raised the remaining few pages of the script in his hand and mouthed, "Sign for me."

This scene made Qian Bin, who was still deeply moved, suddenly feel both amused and confused. People's joys and sorrows are so different.

Never mind. He walked over quickly and added a sentence to the contract, "The script has been signed and verified. Signed by: Qian Bin, date..."

"Thank you, I wish you a great performance!" Qiu Huoming put away the contract and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come to my house for a simple meal tonight. Your sister-in-law will cook it herself..." Qian Bin invited.

"This..." Before Qiu Huoming could respond, Qian Feng at the side took over, "Let's go. It's not far from here. There's a park next to it. There are people dancing at night. It's very lively..."

"Your sister-in-law's cooking skills are excellent. Today we have 'Huangpi Sanhe' and 'Three Fresh Bean Curd' for dinner. I was impressed by her cooking skills and came here with her from far away..." Qian Bin sighed.

Qiu Huoming was moved, "What are 'Huangpi Sanhe' and 'Three Fresh Bean Curd Skin'?"

"Let's go, go eat it, and you'll understand... I guarantee it's worth the trip."

"Okay, then I'd better obey your command." Qiu Huoming has always had no resistance to delicious food. Hearing this, he felt even more itchy and wanted to go and see it for himself.

Qian Bin smiled and walked to the center of the stage. He clapped his hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work, today's rehearsal ends here. I will try to have this play on stage by the beginning of the month..."

Several actors cheered.

Not long after, everyone dispersed and Qian Bin came out from the backstage carrying a handbag.

"Let's go. Your sister-in-law must be waiting anxiously at home..."

The three people went downstairs and walked south along the street. The street lights on both sides had been lit up, and the road was bustling with people coming and going.

Hankou dialect sounds like the accent of Sichuan Province. Qiu Huoming tried hard to identify a few sentences, but could only understand fragments.

"Don't listen. I've been here for so long and I still don't understand it. You've only been here for a few days... Just listen for fun." Qian Bin joked with a smile.

There was a park not far ahead. Music from a tape recorder could be heard from inside. Qiu Huoming asked in surprise, "Someone is dancing at this hour?"

"That's right, each one of them is like a screen with open eyes..." Qian Bin spoke with a Beijing accent, and he didn't use any curse words when he insulted others.

From this point of view, Qian Feng's rank is far behind Qian Bin's.

After passing the park on the right side there is a large walled courtyard. The iron gate in front of the courtyard is open, and you can see the brightly lit residential buildings inside from a distance.

This occupancy rate is quite high.

"I live on the first floor and there is a patio. I have a cat at home. Aren't you afraid of cats?" Qian Bin asked.

"I like it very much. What kind?"

"It's just an ordinary orange cat. It can catch mice. We live on the first floor, so we have to rely on it. Your sister-in-law likes it very much..."

This is probably just to give him a heads up in advance to prevent him from bumping into others without knowing it.

"Don't worry, cats and I have a good connection." Qiu Huoming raised the corner of his mouth, thinking of the wild cat that gave him a mouse.

At this point, several families in the compound have already moved out their summer beds.

This staff compound has only one building. There are a few bungalows scattered near the wall. There is a large open space in the compound.

After entering the corridor, Qian Bin opened a door near the stairs. Before he could say anything, a fat cat slipped under the table.

A gentle voice sounded, "Are you back?"

The release time has been advanced these days. Starting tomorrow, it will still be the old time, and the new chapter will be released at 23: in the evening (I will be busy at work on Monday).
