Chapter 98 Ten years on stage, unknown to the world; one performance of "The Red-Clad Lady" captivates all (2/2)



Wearing a theatrical costume but not singing opera?

What's going on here?

...

Two hours later.

All costumes and props requested by Wang Yueheng have been prepared.

The makeup artist, who was temporarily hired from the local opera association, also signed a confidentiality agreement and entered the examination room to do Wang Yueheng's makeup on the spot.

While the special recruitment team was preparing the props, Wang Yueheng also quickly wrote out the sheet music for the new song.

This time, he chose the song "Red-Clad Ladies".

It encompasses both pop music and traditional opera singing styles, making it a classic fusion.

Furthermore, the song also describes patriotic performing artists from the Republican era.

It resonates with the soul of Chen Ge's film "Mei Zhifang".

"Curve the left eyebrow a little more and make the eyeliner darker."

"Yes, it makes the eyes look brighter and more expressive..."

Sitting in the makeshift dressing room, changing clothes and putting on makeup, Wang Yueheng would occasionally speak to the makeup artist beside him.

The system bestows upon you a powerful folk art skill.

It's not just about the singing and martial arts skills of various operas, but also the professional knowledge accumulated by countless predecessors and sages in the opera world through their life's blood and sweat.

This includes clothing and accessories, character makeup and other distinctive features...

Even if a professional makeup artist from a national theater came in person, Wang Yueheng could still give them another lesson.

Hearing Wang Yueheng's constant pointing and corrections, the makeup artist Yue Huilan, who had arrived at the last minute, was initially a little impatient.

He couldn't help but refute Wang Yueheng, who was pointing fingers at him.

However, when they saw the makeup effect becoming more and more impressive with Wang Yueheng's corrections, they were surprised.

The impatience on Yue Huilan's face vanished instantly.

Instead, they were met with faces full of surprise.

On the contrary, they wished Wang Yueheng would give them more guidance.

When she returns to her original opera troupe, her suddenly improved skills will likely amaze everyone even more.

"You've also studied makeup?"

She helped Wang Yueheng with his makeup.

Yue Huilan, gradually moved by his profound understanding of the makeup of opera characters, couldn't help but ask.

Such a level of professionalism must have taken at least seven or eight years of honing!

I know a little bit.

Wang Yueheng smiled slightly and said.

His face was almost fully made up in the mirror, and his eyes were sparkling. Every smile and frown made him look like a character in a play.

Even Yue Huilan, a woman, was taken aback when she saw Wang Yueheng's charming yet not gaudy smile in the mirror.

This is so beautiful!

You can't tell at all that the actor playing the female role in the mirror is male!

Makeup complete.

Then she changed into the kingfisher feather headdress, cloud shoulder, and phoenix crown that had been prepared beforehand.

A jade belt hangs from her waist, colorful shoes adorn her feet, and her flowing sleeves sway gently...

Wang Yueheng, a popular singer, blinked.

She was completely transformed into a graceful and gentle Peking Opera female role.

The location for this vocal exam.

The event was moved from the classroom to the stage at Haidian Middle School.

As a well-known high school in Kyoto.

The venue facilities at Haidian Middle School are also top-notch.

The lighting and sound system are almost identical to those of a professional theater.

After finishing his makeup, Wang Yueheng took to the stage with the standard steps of a female impersonator.

The experts from the special recruitment team sitting in the audience were all immediately impressed.

Don't say it.

This young singer's female impersonation costume is indeed exceptionally professional and beautiful.

Whether it's the clothing or the character's makeup.

All of them reached the performance level of a first-class opera stage!

"Dear teachers, the name of my song is 'Red-Clad Ladies'."

On stage, Wang Yueheng announced the program in a cool, clear voice.
