She had never been to the Ning City Grand Theater before. The theater had a somewhat European style and a very large stage. When Ye Zhizhou entered, she happened to see Qin Xuan communicating with her teacher on the stage.
The teacher was clearly a professional; she spoke very carefully, with delicate emotional depth. Qin Xuan listened attentively, occasionally gesturing to herself.
Under the teacher's guidance, Ye Zhizhou and Qin Xuan rehearsed twice, and each time they made new progress. The teacher also pointed out their shortcomings.
After the rehearsal ended, Qin Xuan sent the video of their rehearsal directly to Cen Yuzhou.
Ye Zhizhou couldn't help but laugh at his childish behavior.
[Cen Yuzhou: Senior Lin said it's fair competition; let's see how it goes next Wednesday.]
Qin Xuan: Hmm.
Ye Zhizhou accidentally saw the chat history between the two and realized that Cen Yuzhou was sending long strings of messages, while Qin Xuan was sending either single words or no more than five words, which was very concise.
She could almost feel Cen Yuzhou's expression through the screen.
Wednesday arrived quickly. These past few days, including the weekend, Qin Xuan had been rehearsing almost every day, even practicing at home in the Qin Mansion. The nanny secretly told Huo Qingyan, who was far away abroad, about this.
Huo Qingyan hurriedly asked Ye Zhizhou if Qin Xuan had suffered some kind of shock.
Ye Zhizhou had no choice but to explain the whole story, and Huo Qingyan couldn't help but laugh when she learned the truth.
"Xiao Zhou, Ah Xuan can be so childish sometimes, you won't dislike him, will you?"
Ye Zhizhou shook his head repeatedly while holding the microphone, "Of course not, I'm actually quite looking forward to Qin Xuan playing the male lead."
The Nutcracker is a classic play, and this performance is a very classic scene from it. After the female lead helps the kingdom defeat the enemy, she is about to leave the dream world and part ways with the male lead. Her emotional needs are even more delicate.
It wasn't particularly difficult for Ye Zhizhou, but it might not be so for Qin Xuan, since Qin Xuan usually showed a rather indifferent attitude towards relationships.
On Wednesday afternoon, after class, Lin Chengfeng invited Qin Xuan and Cen Yuzhou to the dance studio.
Lin Chengfeng was also in a dilemma. Both of them had excellent academic performance and their appearances matched the male protagonist's description. However, Cen Yuzhou did have an advantage, since he had experience.
However, since Qin Xuan insisted, he had no choice but to agree.
"You two each perform this scene once, and Jiaojiao and I will judge whose performance is better. No objections, right?"
Lin Chengfeng gave the two of them the script he had prepared in advance.
Cen Yuzhou readily agreed, "No objection."
Qin Xuan nodded after reading his words.
This part of the script is the male lead's monologue, and it has quite a few lines, which really tests his acting skills.
Ye Zhizhou sat to the side, holding a bottle of mineral water, which was prepared for Qin Xuan.
After the draw, Cen Yuzhou performed first. He performed a short two-minute scene very vividly, and he also expressed the emotions of the male lead. From a professional point of view, his performance was perfect and without any flaws.
"It's your turn." After his performance, Cen Yuzhou patted Qin Xuan on the shoulder, seemingly as a show of defiance.
Qin Xuan got up and walked towards the center without much hesitation. As soon as he stepped onto the stage, he began his performance. He recited his lines perfectly, and his voice was loud and clear. Compared to Cen Yuzhou, his performance was in no way inferior.
