Chapter 149 Opening Scene - Calling Fish Pond

Su Dongpo, who was once young and frivolous, resisted marriage and did not want to be an official. So I hope that the romantic story of "Call of Fish" is true and can make Su Dongpo and Wang Fu fall in love naturally.

……………………………………………………………………

After a start-up crosstalk between Wang Xiaomao and Guo Xiaotie, the two protagonists and four mentors should be allowed to perform a plot. Lu Yuchi saw through the monitor that Wan Qianxi was ready and was waiting by the side of Taiwan, but Yang Mi had not come out yet.

Lu Yuchi asked Han Shiqi: "What's wrong with Yang Mi? The other person, Xixi, put on makeup and waited in the audience for a while."

If Han Shiqi last called himself "art director" and did not play a significant role, this time he was really responsible. He supervised the whole process and communicated with relevant staff in a timely manner on sets, lighting, makeup, clothing and other matters.

"Don't forget that Yang Mi is a cross-dressing actor. She has to draw a man. We discussed before that, and she asked the makeup teacher that although it was a Song Dynasty hairstyle, she could not over-highlight her forehead, which is quite difficult."

"Isn't it over to add some 'bangs'?"

"Her forehead - isn't it a matter of 'a little' bangs? It's natural. Besides, it's not easy to wear on costumes, just her..." Han Shiqi gestured out of thin air on his chest, then raised an eyebrow at Lu Yuchi, and said, "Those two... dressed up as men - it's just not easy to wear anyway."

In fact, Han Shiqi didn’t need to have such a rich expression, and everyone in the director team could understand, and everyone laughed.

Lu Yuchi said: "When I say this, why do I think the show is ruined if we let her play Su Dongpo, and her voice is not good."

"She has practiced it in a special way recently. If she really can't do it, she can still dubbing it. Don't worry, Master Baoer can naturally arrange these." Director Zhao answered Lu Yuchi, and then whispered to the microphone, "Male, the heroine is ready for the opening scene. Makeup artist, is Yang Mi getting ready soon?"

The reply was sent back in the dressing room: "It was almost done. Yang Mi just heard the two hosts talk crosstalk and laughed so hard."

“…”

After waiting for a while, Yang Mi finally rushed to the stage and apologized to the audience and staff of various departments. Then she wanted to perform a small clip with Wan Qianqian. Not to mention, she was such a "fashionable young man".

In addition to the opening of a crosstalk between Wang Xiaomao and Guo Xiaotie, the contestants were not arranged, but the male, female protagonist and four mentors respectively divided into a clip. It was to warm up the program and prove their strength to the contestants first. This was Wang Xiaomao's plan. Chen Deliang also proposed it, and later it was unanimously agreed by everyone.

Proving strength? But Yang Mi has a lot of controversy in her acting skills. Although Wan Qianqian has a good reputation, she is still a young actor after all, so the two of them have really worked hard to show this part on the stage. Some time ago, in Jixian, he not only practiced hard all day under the guidance of Baoye, but also asked the other four veteran actors for a lot of skills.

According to the program arrangement process, the historical consultant Ji Lianshui must first explain the historical background of the paragraphs the actors are going to perform.

Ji Lianshui pushed his glasses and said, "Let me say something more first. I think this part of the show is very good. I once watched a TV series about Su Dongpo, and Wang Gui mistakenly thought Su Dongpo was dead. There was a very sad thing, and even shed tears. Many people watched that comment and said that Wang Gui was false. Maybe the creators of the TV series thought so, but I think this is because everyone doesn't understand Wang Gui, he is a very complicated person.

I won't talk about Wang Gui here, after all, the scene they two are about to perform has nothing to do with Wang Gui. I want to say why this misunderstanding is caused by the audience? It is because ordinary audiences don't understand history so much, which is not wrong, but when watching historical dramas, they are prone to misunderstandings about some plots and misunderstandings.

So I think it is really good to explain the historical background of our program before they perform. The program will be completed in the future and then the TV series will be broadcast. If the audience has watched this program, they will have a certain understanding of that history and will look more comfortable.

Specifically speaking of the part that the two of them are about to perform, it is about how Su Dongpo met Wang Fu and how they fell in love. This part is actually not history, but folk legend, so I don’t want to reveal the plot more. I just want to say that I would rather believe that this is true. For the specific reason, let’s watch their performance first.”

"Teacher Ji is also very good at keeping a secret, hahaha." Guo Xiaotie said to the audience again, "Then let's invite Yang Mi and Wan Xixi to show us how Su Dongpo and Wang Fu met and fell in love..."

This plot is actually quite simple. Wang Fu's father Wang Fang is a prestigious Jinshi and has a fish pond in the local area. If tourists passing by clapped their hands at the fish pond, the fish in the pond would seem to be spiritual and jumped out of the water one after another.

Wang Fang wanted to name this wonder scene, and also wanted to take this opportunity to choose a son-in-law, so he called a group of young talents to write the title, including Su Dongpo. Many people were not selected, but Su Dongpo's title "Call of Fish Pond" was deeply loved by Wang Fang.

Coincidentally, Wang Fang's daughter Wang Fu has been hiding in secret and observing, and the name she wrote was also "Call of Fish Pond". The two of them were in love with each other, and Wang Fu also developed a good impression of Su Dongpo, and her parents also took a fancy to Su Dongpo as their son-in-law. Later, the two had some conversations, admired each other's talents and fell in love with each other.

This scene mainly involves three people, Su Dongpo, Wang Fu, and Wang Fang, and Wang Fang made a guest appearance by Feng Yuanxing. Although Yang Mi and Wan Qianxi do not need to compete, for the performance of the show, several mentors still need to comment.

Before commenting, the history consultant Ji Lianshui made a comment first. That day, Lu Yuchi decided to make Feng Yuanxing change to a mentor, and asked Ji Lianshui to be a history consultant, so Wang Xiaomao revised the planning plan. Because the mentors were not necessarily proficient in history, Ji Lianshui made comments first, and the mentors would not make historical common sense mistakes in the subsequent comments, but in fact, they were also to take care of their face.

Ji Lianshui said: "I don't know how to perform. I just talk about my own feelings. When this story happened, Su Dongpo would not be over 19 years old and Wang Fu would not be over 16 years old. I think the two actors played the role of two people of this age very well.

Some viewers may not understand why Su Dongpo had just met Wang Fu, his eyes and expression were a little unnatural, as if it wasn't like that - just take a look and it won't work. This is what I said at the beginning, why do I really hope that this story that is not historical is true.

Because Su Dongpo escaped from marriage. This is also a story that Duan'er did not have in official history, but through the articles, letters, and words of related characters - an experience that can be introduced. Su Dongpo, who was once young and frivolous, resisted marriage and did not want to be an official.

Then why did he change? Historical books did not. Later, it was recorded that he and Wang Fu got married. That's why I hope the story of "Call the Fish Pond" is true and can make Su Dongpo and Wang Fu fall in love naturally.

Going back to their performance just now, a person who doesn’t want to get married and becomes an official suddenly meets a woman he admires, and he must have a process of entanglement and transformation. I think this is a good reflection in Yang Mi’s performance just now…”
