Chapter 181 Shen Yumo and Fang Yuqing's first meeting
"Sister, brother-in-law, our seats are in the front." Fang Yuqing looked at the tickets in her hand and greeted Fang Yuning and the other person.
As Fang Yuning walked in, she looked at the crowd around the theater. She felt that these people were different from the people who usually watched a drama.
When I watched a play in the past, although the audience members dressed similarly to the people who watched it now, there was a big difference if you just judged their temperament.
Each of the audience who came to watch this time exuded a gentle and refined temperament.
For example, the two young girls walking in front of her, although they were not dressed as well as her friends who grew up with her, they were full of bookish air.
Especially the girl walking behind, who was not only pretty but also tall, and was almost as good-looking as her sister.
In the Fang family, the one who inherited the most of their mother's beauty is the younger sister Fang Yuqing.
And the person in front of him was no worse than Yuqing.
Just as Fang Yuning was about to observe further, Qin Wenhui suddenly said, "Manager Wang, are you here to watch the play too?"
Hearing her husband's call, Fang Yuning also withdrew her gaze.
Family habits allowed her to quickly fit into the role of wife.
Following the direction Qin Wenhui greeted, Fang Yuning saw a thin man in his forties sitting in a corner not far away.
It must be uncomfortable to watch the stage from this position.
Manager Wang also smiled and said, "Wenhui, I didn't expect you to come and watch the play."
"If we knew you were coming, we would have come together."
Qin Wenhui said: "I came here with my family."
"Yu Ning, this is Manager Wang from our foreign trade company. Manager Wang, this is my wife Fang Yuning."
Manager Wang smiled and said, "Hello, Comrade Yuning, I have always known that you are Wenhui's good wife!"
"You've been very supportive of our company's work!"
Fang Yuning said with a smile: "Manager Wang, Wenhui always mentioned you at home, saying that you were very helpful to his work."
"It's nice to meet you this time."
Because there were still people entering later, the two sides just exchanged a few simple greetings.
Qin Wenhui and his friends continued to move forward, while Manager Wang remained seated.
The theater was not big, so Qin Wenhui quickly found their seat, right in the middle of the fourth row.
This position is very comfortable whether you are watching a play or a movie. It can be said that this is one of the best seats in the theater.
After Qin Wenhui sat down, he said to Fang Yuning, "My little sister, they found a good seat this time."
Fang Yuning smiled and said, "Of course."
Fang Yuqing did not pay attention to the conversation between her sister and brother-in-law. After entering the theater, she looked around, hoping to see Cheng Xuyuan.
But unfortunately, Cheng Xuyuan was not there.
She just saw a pretty girl sitting in the eighth row behind them.
She didn’t know if it was due to telepathy, but the moment she saw the girl, she couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her.
The girl seemed to have noticed her gaze and looked at her a few more times.
Then the two of them smiled and looked away at the same time.
"Yuqing, do you know that girl?" Fang Yuning, who had been paying attention to her sister's movements, asked with concern when she saw her sister's expression.
Fang Yuqing said: "I don't know him, but I couldn't help but take a few more glances."
Fang Yuning smiled and said, "Me too, this girl is quite pretty, I wonder which unit she works for."
After hearing what her sister said, Fang Yuqing suddenly remembered that she seemed to have seen the woman sitting next to the beautiful girl, but because of the lighting, she couldn't see it clearly, so she couldn't remember it for a while.
Just as the two sisters were whispering to each other, Shen Yumo, who had glanced at Fang Yuqing a few more times, was asked the same question by Zhang Dening.
"I really don't know that girl." Shen Yumo said with a smile: "The reason why I looked at her twice more is because she was looking at me!"
Zhang Dening said: "You two look at each other more like this. I think you are comparing each other."
"Tsk tsk, what a pretty girl! I can't help but compare myself to other pretty girls when I see them."
"The ones who got hurt are all ordinary girls like us."
"Although I feel uncomfortable, I still have to watch it."
Listening to Zhang Dening's joke, Shen Yumo smiled gently.
"Yenching Literature and Art" received a total of ten votes this time, and to be honest, it was really not enough.
Although everyone wanted to watch it, Cheng Xuyuan's two editors, Zhang Dening and Shen Yumo, were each given one ticket.
According to what Zou Yan said, just consider it as a reward for helping Cheng Xuyuan read and reply to letters.
Shen Yumo was a little nervous about coming to watch the drama this time.
From the perspective of an editor, if the novel he is responsible for is adapted into a drama, he should naturally support it and find some sense of recognition and accomplishment.
However, as Cheng Xuyuan's "ex-wife", Shen Yumo felt a little awkward to come to this occasion.
But under Zhang Dening's persuasion, and because of his love for "The Pursuit of Happyness", Shen Yumo couldn't help but come over to take a look.
But I didn't expect to meet such a beautiful girl among the audience.
"Guess who this girl is?" Zhang Dening suddenly asked after looking at Fang Yuqing carefully.
Hearing this question, Shen Yumo shook his head and said, "I can't guess."
Zhang Dening said: "You just don't use your brain."
"I'll teach you today."
"Judging from the way this girl is dressed, her family should be well-off."
Hearing this, Shen Yumo couldn't help but roll his eyes. You are talking nonsense, and you can say it so smoothly. It's really nonsense.
Zhang Dening didn't care when Shen Yumo rolled his eyes at her because she had already recognized Fang Yuqing.
So she smiled and continued to analyze: "This girl is wearing a school badge on her shirt. I didn't see clearly what brand it was, but I can be sure that she is a college student."
A beautiful female college student is truly an enviable gifted child.
Although Shen Yumo had a good job and was prepared to study on his own, he still felt a little regretful that he failed to get into university.
She really didn't notice the girl's school badge.
Just as Shen Yumo was wondering what school the girl was from, he heard Zhang Dening continue, "For this audition, the seats are not randomly arranged."
"Take our Yanjing Literature and Art for example. If it weren't for the fact that "The Pursuit of Happiness" was a novel we published and we had collaborated with Cheng Xuyuan a lot, they wouldn't have given us ten tickets at all."
"Besides, it's impossible to put our tickets in the middle of the ninth row."
"And this girl's ticket is in the fourth row. Either her parents were able to get such good tickets, or she has powerful friends."
Zhang Dening's analysis made Shen Yumo nod slightly.
Although the first part is a bit unreliable, the analysis that follows still makes some sense.
The girl in front of me probably comes from a well-off family.
Looking at Shen Yumo who had been intimidated by him, Zhang Dening smiled triumphantly.
If the school signs of various universities were not similar nowadays, I would tell you directly that this girl is from Yenching University.
Just as she was about to continue showing off, she heard someone say, "Why don't you see Cheng Xuyuan?"
Zhao Jinjiu, who was sitting next to them at some point, smiled and said to Zhang Dening, "De Ning, analyze it."
"Is there any need to analyze this? It must be Elder Wan who has come."
Zhang Dening waved his hand and said, "I heard that there are quite a few big guys coming to watch the audition this time."
As they were talking, the lights in the hall began to dim, while the lights on the stage gradually became brighter.
Just then, a row of people came from one side of the theater and sat down in the first two rows.
Cheng Xuyuan followed behind Master Wan. After Master Wan and the others sat down, he smiled and said, "Teacher, I have friends waiting for me. I'll come over later."
Elder Wan waved his hand and said, "Go and do your thing. I'll take a good look at the effect of your adapted script."
"We'll talk after the show is over."
Cheng Xuyuan agreed, smiled at Yu Shizhi and other seniors, and then quietly returned to Fang Yuqing.
Before Cheng Xuyuan came back, Qin Wenhui whispered to Fang Yuning: "Yuning, do you know the family situation of my friend?"
Fang Yuning said: "I heard he is from the countryside."
Qin Wenhui said: "Yu Ning, you have to remind me more. Although Cheng Xuyuan is quite capable, I'm afraid he will use me as a springboard!"
"If that's the case, it won't be very good for me..."
Just as Qin Wenhui was whispering, Cheng Xuyuan had quietly walked over. After greeting Fang Yuqing, he smiled and said to Qin Wenhui and the others, "Sister, brother, I just had something to do. I'm really sorry, I..."
Just as Cheng Xuyuan was whispering an apology, a deep voice sounded.
"He is a son abandoned by a rich man..."
Following this narration, the curtain slowly opened, and the first scene was a villa on Donghai Xiafei Road. Amidst the furnishings from the 1940s, a child slowly walked onto the stage...
As time passed, scenes from the novel were constantly displayed in front of everyone through the stage.
Compared with the movie, this drama more vividly reproduces the spirit of perseverance and pursuit of happiness.
Compared with the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness", the performance form of this drama has changed, but the spirit it wants to express has not changed.
At the end of the play, the audience expressed their belief and expectation for a better future! As the last scene ended, a wave of applause began to rang out crazily.
The actors participating in the performance began to take their bows one by one. As the protagonist of this performance, Hou Shimao was placed in the middle position.
Standing on the stage, he felt like tears welled up in his eyes.
Not only did the applause mean that their efforts were recognized, it also meant that Hou Shimao's efforts were not in vain.
He succeeded!
The applause lasted for more than half a minute and had not yet faded.
So much so that these actors bowed again and again to thank the audience for their recognition.
Amid the applause, Hou Shimao saw Cheng Xuyuan standing in the crowd, clapping with a smile on his face. His heart was filled with warmth and he ran off the stage.
Just when some audiences were surprised, he grabbed Cheng Xuyuan and without waiting for Cheng Xuyuan to speak, he pulled him onto the stage.
Then he said loudly: "Teacher Xu Lingyun, the success of this performance is inseparable from your support."
"I think you deserve a share of the applause today."
After Hou Shimao finished speaking, the audience, who had been surprised by this small change, applauded again.
The scene, which had originally calmed down, burst into applause again.
Fang Yuqing looked at Cheng Xuyuan standing in the middle of the stage, and a trace of tears flashed in her eyes.
At this time, Shen Yumo was also clapping hard.
Her eyes were also looking at Cheng Xuyuan who was in the middle of the stage!
