Chapter 138 Rehearsal At the beginning of the afternoon rehearsal, Jiang Lianxue performed the opening changed into a dance dress and posed under the stage. As the elevator slowly rose, she was like a lotus emerging from water, instantly attracting everyone's attention. During this rehearsal, with the lighting and choreography of the official stage, Jiang Lianxue's charm skyrocketed, almost to the point of breaking through. As the streamers began to fly, everyone held their breath at the same time, and then slowly exhaled after a few seconds. As the dance ended, the narration slowly faded away, the curtain drew up, and the show officially began. Then the lights dimmed and Jiang Lianxue took the elevator back to the stage. The actors for the first act were quickly in place. The opening dance is not only a brief introduction to the drama, but also aims to instantly grab the audience's attention. Jiang Lianxue's performance had an additional effect, making everyone feel encouraged and ready to do their best to perform well in this play. The following rehearsal performance went smoothly, and on a larger stage, the performance produced even better results. Lu Li had been accompanying the leaders and teachers from the Culture and Tourism Bureau and the museum. They watched the performance from beginning to end and stood up and applauded at the same time. President Yuan turned his head to look at Lu Li, and said with emotion, "The story is good, the acting is good, the image is good, and the music is good. The business capabilities of Zhilan Drama Club are not inferior to those of the big troupes!"
Director Yang of the museum nodded in agreement. "There were many moments when I felt as if I had traveled through the murals. The stories happening on the stage were so vivid. I really want to have a good chat with the editor who created such an excellent work." Lu Li smiled and said, "As long as the leaders are satisfied, we at Zhilan also hope to promote the beautiful Dunhuang culture through this performance." Before this, he and Zhilan were actually a little nervous. The specific points of concern lie in some micro-innovations. Because the performers are young people, the audience are young people, and the people most likely to travel in the future are still young people. Therefore, when creating the play, Zhilan's team not only copied the traditional myths completely, but also made some comedy creations to make the audience feel more relaxed. Just like the main theme of Animal World in the past was “Spring is here”, the main theme of Animal World now is “So cute”. The ideas and content that you want to convey may not have changed, but the way of expression has changed slightly. Fortunately, both the Cultural and Tourism Bureau and the museum are not opposed to this kind of innovation, and even appreciate it. In fact, the reason why they are willing to cooperate with Zhilan is that they want to enter the world of young people. As the curtain slowly fell, the first rehearsal officially ended, and Lu Li led the leaders and teachers of both sides to the backstage. At this time, almost all the members of the Zhilan Drama Club were out, and Tang Jiaming and Qi Nan were also helping to control the situation, so Lu Li was left to receive the leaders. He himself is not very stage-shy and is indeed the most suitable candidate besides Liu Bing. As soon as everyone walked into the backstage, Lan Yuting, who was wearing a performance costume, took the initiative to stand up and said, "Dear leaders and teachers, are you satisfied with the results of this rehearsal?" "We are very satisfied. To show our sincerity, we are willing to pay the remaining balance now. We also hope that you will not feel pressured and just complete tomorrow's performance in the most natural state." When he heard that it was about money, Liu Bing, who was resting due to exhaustion, immediately jumped up and walked forward, "Mr. Yuan, let me contact you about the handover of the balance!" Mr. Yuan was stunned for a moment. "Why don't you take a rest first? I see you just finished your performance, so you must be a little tired, right?" Liu Bing showed a nonchalant expression, "Don't worry, Mr. Yuan, collecting money is like a rest for me." "Okay, I'll contact the finance department now and ask them to transfer the money so we can finalize the details."
Upon hearing this, all the leaders and teachers walked out of the backstage together. Liu Bing followed and gently patted Lu Li on the shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to me." Lu Li smiled and nodded, then looked towards the backstage, searching everywhere. Lan Yuting sat back on the chair with her hands on her waist, smiling and pointing to the dressing room not far away, "Xiaoxue is there, you look so anxious, you two really can't be separated for a moment!" Lu Li smiled, "I can't help it, this is love." Yaoyao, who was sitting next to them, looked envious, "You two have been together for two months now! Don't you get tired of being together every day?" "I'm calling you." Lu Li passed by Yaoyao and Li Tao and gently kicked Li Tao, "Quick, dance a Korean dance for Sister Yaoyao." Although Li Tao didn't understand what it meant, he still stood up obediently. After all, he really wanted to jump. Yaoyao quickly reached out to grab him, and pulled him into her arms, "Baby, be good, let's not jump. If you insist on jumping, I might break your legs~" Li Tao, who was sitting in his arms, gasped. Lu Li, you little thief, actually wanted to murder me! After the work was done, Lu Li left without leaving any credit or fame. He walked to the door of the dressing room with a smile and knocked gently, "Little Ultraman?" "You're here! Wait for me to unlock it!" Jiang Lianxue's happy voice rang out, and with a click, the door of the dressing room opened, and Lu Li quickly got in. A white curtain blocked the two of them. Jiang Lianxue poked her little head out from the gap in the curtain and looked at Lu Li with a smile. "Answer me a question quickly, don't think! Blue or green, which one do you choose? Quick, quick, quick!" "blue." "it is good!" Jiang Lianxue's little head popped back behind the curtain and she started to change her clothes. Lu Li asked curiously, "Aren't you going to wear the clothes you just wore during the second rehearsal?" "In fact, I made many pieces in different colors and styles at once. I was going to find the best one to wear tomorrow." "Is it too late to choose now?" Lu Li remembered that time was limited today, so he planned to rehearse completely only twice. After that, he would rehearse each small plot individually if he felt that there was more that needed practice. Judging from Jiang Lianxue's tone, there should be more than three or four pieces, and it may not be possible to change many during the rehearsal this afternoon. Jiang Lianxue laughed, "There's still time. I can go back to the hotel and wear different clothes and dance for you alone!" "Oh?" Lu Li couldn't help but laugh, "Then is there any customized paid content?" "Ahem, that will be revealed tonight." As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain opened and Jiang Lianxue, wearing a new dance dress, appeared. She turned her waist slightly and asked with a smile: "How about this one? Compared with the one just now, which one looks better?" Lu Li looked carefully from head to toe, then stroked his chin and said, "I can't tell. I can't tell at all. They all look good." "is it hard?"
"Then let me ask you, which is better, roasted pig's trotter or fried chicken leg?" "Well that seems a bit difficult. No, why are you thinking about eating feet all the time!" "???" The corner of Lu Li's mouth twitched. Damn, this is so unfair! (End of this chapter)
