It's a brand new week again. As usual, study life and colorful extracurricular life fill every student's time.
Starting this week, Yu Sangzhi and Huo Feng have been meeting much less frequently than before.
Apart from the time they spend in their respective classes during the day, Huo Feng starts club rehearsals in the evening and can no longer study with Yu Sangzhi.
However, starting this week, Yu Sangzhi no longer went to the library to study.
Yu Sangzhi began to work on her experiment, spending almost every night in her dormitory studying her architectural model.
She has taught herself the content for more than half a semester, and now she is at the stage of experimental verification.
Therefore, Huo Feng's evening rehearsal schedule this week was quite timely. He happened to be busy, and Yu Sangzhi didn't plan to go out for self-study.
On Monday night, Huo Feng and his club classmates officially rehearsed "The Phantom of the Opera" in the rehearsal room.
It has been a long time since we rehearsed a musical. When we started rehearsing again, the rehearsal rhythm started with the singing.
Huo Feng got the script for a supporting role as he wished. Although his role was not small, it was much less than that of the male lead.
Looking at the thin script, Huo Feng expressed satisfaction. As for the identity and role of the supporting actor, he didn't care much about it.
The role of the male lead this time finally fell into Wu Di's hands. Holding a thick stack of scripts for the male lead, Wu Di was under a lot of pressure but in a very good mood.
After the rehearsal began, with the accompaniment of music, all the actors practiced simple singing voices, slightly regaining the feeling of singing in a musical theater.
After a brief practice session, the students rehearsed their respective parts and lines in batches. Of course, the male and female protagonists' parts were the most important, so they were rehearsed first.
"The Phantom of the Opera" tells a story that takes place in a theater.
The plot summary is roughly as follows: In an opera house in Paris, a creepy phantom male voice appears.
The voice comes from a "male ghost" who lives in the underground maze of the theater. He falls in love with the actress Christine and secretly teaches her to sing in order to help her get the role of the heroine. However, Christine loves the theater agent Raoul, which leads to a series of plots such as jealousy, pursuit and murder.
"The Phantom of the Opera" can be said to be a classic musical, and it is also a program that the musical club must perform again every year.
That is to say, you have to perform once in your freshman year, once in your sophomore year, and once in your junior year.
The repeated performances do not mean that the musical club has no other dramas to perform, but because "The Phantom of the Opera" is such a classic among musicals that it is a box office hit no matter how many times it is performed.
This time, the male lead is played by Wu Di, who portrays the opera house's male ghost. As he navigates his underground maze, he secretly harbors a crush on the female lead, while simultaneously helping her become the heroine of the play. However, his unrequited love ultimately bears no fruit...
The heroine is played by You Xinran.
In addition, Huo Feng played the second most important supporting actor.
What is more regrettable is that in the play "The Phantom of the Opera", the heroine likes the second male lead, and at the end of the story, the heroine and the second male lead are a couple.
At the end of the story, the male ghost found that his love for the heroine had surpassed his personal possessiveness, so he freed the heroine and made her and the second male lead together. He left his cloak and mask behind and disappeared alone in the dim underground maze.
So... in this drama, the heroine still loves the second male lead.
In other words, the character played by You Xinran loves the second male lead played by Huo Feng. And the male lead has only a good impression of the female lead at most. From an emotional perspective, the male lead is just cannon fodder!
The rehearsal has already started for more than half an hour...
Over there, You Xinran and Wu Di are now rehearsing the plot, lines and singing of the first act.
Over here, Huo Feng, who was bored, was reading his script over and over again. He raised one eyebrow, scratched his temple and said helplessly, "How come my character has a love scene with the heroine, and it works..."
Lin Chong was sitting next to Huo Feng, so he naturally heard what Huo Feng said.
He thought to himself: Huo Feng must not have studied the script of "The Phantom of the Opera". This script was originally written by the male protagonist to help the female protagonist and the second male lead!
"Student Lin Chong, this shouldn't be the script you wrote, right?" Huo Feng looked up and asked Lin Chong.
Lin Chong shook his head and denied it hastily, "It's definitely not written by me. This is a classic musical. It's the masterpiece of musical master Andrew Lloyd Webber, Hephaestus Hepera. People all over the world know it. I can't write a script like that!"
"You didn't tell me that the second male lead would have a love scene..."
Huo Feng frowned, tapping his fingers on the script, his face full of distress. "Including this time, I will be playing a couple with her for the third time. Actors are actors, and although we have professional ethics, there is no such thing as three times the limit. If we play it too many times, people will think there is something going on between us."
"Hey, you can't blame me for this."
Lin Chong shrugged and spread his hands, "You're not playing the male lead... Then the role of the second male lead is just like this."
Huo Feng couldn't help but narrow his eyes, looking unhappy, "Is there no script for male number 3, male number 4, male number 5 and male number 6?"
"No. What are you talking about~"
Lin Chong sighed, "The male lead in that film should have been you. You said you were determined not to play the male lead, so the second male lead must have been yours. If you don't play the second male lead, who will guarantee the traffic for our performance this time? We're still waiting for you to post the second and third Douyin videos, and then go viral and bring more traffic to our musical club."
