Chapter 47 The Art of Balance
After the third act ended, the theater fell into a brief silence.
All the actors stood on the stage again.
Yang Lixin and the others looked at Park Cunxin.
Park Cunxin's face was expressionless, as if he was weighing something.
After a moment, he cleared his throat:
"Alright, actors, you've worked hard. Go and rest now."
He then turned to look at Yang Lixin and the others:
"Let's meet briefly in the conference room."
Instead of offering comments on the spot, they chose to discuss the matter behind closed doors.
This decision surprised many people on stage.
If you are not satisfied with Zhang Qilin's performance, you can directly reject it or point it out on the spot.
If you're satisfied, you can give them high praise and a few words of encouragement.
This approach is only adopted when there is significant controversy or when careful consideration is required.
……
In the small conference room, Park Cunxin looked at everyone:
What are your thoughts on this newcomer's performance?
Lin Zhaohua, who was sitting next to him, spoke first:
"Zhang Qilin's performance, taken out of context, is very moving. He is not imitating emotions, but building a situation, believing in the situation, and living in it. This forces his co-star to put aside his skills and respond with real emotions. This is a talent."
Yang Lixin pondered for a moment and said:
"I agree with Director Lin's opinion. Zhang Qilin has a good understanding of the character. His acting style can greatly help his co-stars to enter into real emotions. The changes in Li Qing's reaction later are proof of this."
"This is invaluable for creating relatable and relatable modern theatrical characters."
Song Dandan looked at Park Cunxin and said:
"I don't have that many theories, I just felt that this play really got me hooked."
Liang Guanhua was the last to speak, and he said with a smile:
"Zhang Qilin's performance today was truly a pleasant surprise. His dedication to the role and his instinctive sense of realism provided us with new possibilities and ideas for character development, which is invaluable."
As Park Cunxin listened to their remarks, his brows furrowed more and more.
As he was considering how to respond, his phone vibrated; a text message had arrived.
After reading it, he said to everyone:
"Let me rest for ten minutes, and then I'll think about it."
After saying that, he got up and left his seat.
The remaining people didn't move, sitting in their original spots and chatting quietly.
In Park Cunxin's office, Su Wen stood before him, her tone earnest:
"Professor Park, I have worked at the Beijing People's Art Theatre for more than 20 years. I have always been conscientious and dedicated, and I have gone wherever I am needed without any complaints. But I only have one son, and this is his best chance."
"Chen Xu has been with the Beijing People's Art Theatre for several years. If he can play this role, he will have a chance to play a minor role in 'Teahouse' next year."
"I heard that Zhang Qilin has already played the opening tea drinker in 'Teahouse,' so the role in the third act won't be of much benefit to him..."
Park Cunxin didn't respond immediately, as if he was thinking about something.
Su Wen couldn't glean any information from his face, so she gritted her teeth and said:
"I know Chen Xu still needs more polishing, but he grew up at the Beijing People's Art Theatre, and his feelings for this place have never changed. He will stay at the Beijing People's Art Theatre in the future..."
Upon hearing this, Park Cunxin finally reacted:
"You should go back now."
When he was all alone in the office, Park Cunxin sighed softly.
Back in the meeting room, Park Cunxin spoke calmly, yet with an undeniable air of authority:
"It's good that young people have ability and ideas, but the Beijing People's Art Theatre has its own system and procedures, and we need to consider the majority of people."
His words fell silent in the conference room, and no one responded for a moment.
Yang Lixin and Lin Zhaohua exchanged a glance.
They acknowledged Zhang Qilin's abilities, but they couldn't refute Park Cunxin's words.
At this moment, Song Dandan, who hadn't said much, put down her teacup.
"Xiao Pu is right, the rules can't be broken," she first affirmed Pu Cunxin's point of view, then changed the subject, "However, rules are rigid, but acting is flexible. Today we are reviewing the acting, not the rules. Was that scene good? Was it realistic? Was it moving? All the teachers here have their own judgment."
She paused, her gaze sweeping over the crowd:
"I think good acting is the most important thing. Zhang Qilin proved today that his interpretation of the character was correct, and he was able to perform it well and even lead his co-stars."
"Rules can be taught gradually, but if talent cannot be retained, that would be the greatest loss to the Beijing People's Art Theatre."
She neither denied the rules that Park Cunxin valued, nor did she shift the focus back to the play itself and the future of the Beijing People's Art Theatre.
Park Cunxin's gaze swept over the crowd:
"My opinion is that, firstly, Chen Xu's role should remain unchanged. He needs to learn from his experience, especially to further explore the character's inner motivations and emotional authenticity. Director Gu, you need to provide more guidance."
"Secondly, Zhang Qilin will participate in the subsequent performances as an understudy."
Upon hearing this, Song Dandan's lips twitched slightly, but in the end she simply picked up her teacup, took a sip, and remained silent.
She understood that this was perhaps the safest solution to maintain calm on the water's surface under the current circumstances.
Yang Lixin and Lin Zhaohua nodded in agreement.
They understand that nurturing new talent within the organization requires patience and strategy.
Seeing that everyone had fallen silent, Park Chun-hsin announced the adjournment of the meeting.
At this moment, Song Dandan's voice rang out again:
"Should I tell that child? I just can't bring myself to say it."
The meeting room fell silent.
After exchanging glances, all eyes silently returned to Park Cunxin.
Park Cunxin slowly said:
"Have him come to my office."
……
Backstage at the small theater, everyone was anxiously waiting for news.
Zhang Qilin sat alone in the innermost corner with his eyes closed.
No one dared to approach him within half a meter of his body.
Occasionally someone would pass by, glancing at it briefly before quickly moving on.
Zhang Qilin was also very nervous at this moment. The fact that the experts did not provide on-site commentary made him feel uneasy.
There's always a sense of loss and uncertainty.
suddenly,
A message appeared before his eyes.
[Reward: Luck Value +5, Passerby Affinity Fragment +1]
Upon seeing this message, he couldn't help but feel excited.
Since he received an award, it means that his portrayal of the groom has been recognized by most people. Does that mean he can play the groom now?
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief; all his efforts over the past few months had finally paid off.
Even when he was most exhausted, he gritted his teeth and persevered, all for the sake of getting this role.
With the results in hand, the pressure in my heart was relieved, and I felt much more relaxed.
At that moment, a commotion arose backstage.
Zhang Qilin opened his eyes and saw Director Gu Wei gathering everyone together.
Knowing that the results were about to be announced, and thinking that he might be playing the role of the groom, he immediately got up and walked over quickly.
Director Gu Wei, seeing that the crowd had gathered, slowly scanned the area and finally locked onto Zhang Qilin in the crowd.
He said calmly:
"Zhang Qilin, Dean Park wants you to go to his office."
Zhang Qilin was taken aback.
Vice Dean Park Chun-hsin spoke with him.
Then a thought flashed through my mind.
Could it be because of his private audition?
He felt a sense of unease, nodded, and turned to walk towards the door.
