Chapter 2253: This play needs to be changed

Hu Baguai plays an old farmer who is a bit hard of hearing. It is precisely because of his hearing loss that he creates a lot of laughter.

Although Hu Baguai is over seventy years old, his acting skills have not been lost. He uses not exaggerated performance, lines, singing, and body language to vividly express the image of a hard-of-hearing old farmer, making the audience burst into knowing laughter from time to time.

And the County Magistrate Lin played by He Zongxin is humorous in his uprightness, very charming and approachable. Some of the bridges he performs give Su Xinghui a sense of familiarity, as if they are all things he has done in Chongjin County.

This proves that He Zongxin put a lot of effort into writing the script. He must have visited many of Su Xinghui's deeds in Chongjin County.

The plot on the stage developed to flood control and disaster relief, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The lights, sets, and the body language of the actors vividly expressed that storm.

The superb performance of the actors reproduced the major flood a few months ago. The County Magistrate Lin played by He Zongxin was dedicated to the people and devoted himself to the embankment. His words and deeds were admirable.

When this part was performed, some emotional women under the stage had already wiped their tears.

The plot finally reached its climax. The flood receded. County Magistrate Lin received a phone call and learned that one of his close friends had died of overwork during the flood control and disaster relief. He suddenly fainted on the stage.

Amidst the urgent shouts of other characters, the curtain slowly closed. The whole play ended.

All the audience stood up and gave the actors the warmest applause. Many people had tears in their eyes. Lu Xiaoya beside Su Xinghui was already in tears, and she clapped with all her strength.

The applause could not subside for a long time. The curtain opened again. He Zongxin led all the actors to come out to thank the audience. Yuan Yifu and Su Xinghui smiled and went on stage with other county leaders to shake hands with He Zongxin and others cordially.

Yuan Yifu shook hands with He Zongxin and said, "Head He, well performed, we were all moved."

He Zongxin said, "Then I feel deeply honored. It is really not an easy thing to move Secretary Yuan."

He Zongxin lived up to his reputation, with a sharp mouth that did not let people go. There were also hidden thorns in his words. Many people could not help but change color. Feng Lan and He Jianpeng even showed worried expressions on their faces.

He Zongxin had written plays to satirize Yuan Yifu before, and when he was promoted to deputy head, Yuan Yifu personally said that this comrade was not mature enough and denied the promotion. The two could be said to have had grievances for a long time. Unexpectedly, He Zongxin was still unforgiving today.

Yuan Yifu seemed not to have heard the thorns in He Zongxin's words at all. He smiled and nodded and said, "Well, not bad, perform well!"

He patted He Zongxin on the shoulder and went to shake hands with other actors.

Su Xinghui shook He Zongxin's hand and said, "Head He, well performed!"

He Zongxin said, "County Magistrate Su is over-praising."

Su Xinghui said, "However, Head He, I still have some opinions to put forward."

He Zongxin said, "I just want you to put forward opinions. If you have any opinions, just put them forward."

Su Xinghui said, "Head He, I think the role of your character is too heavy. In fact, in this year's flood control and disaster relief, there are many moving deeds, many of which are the most ordinary common people. I think you should greatly increase their roles in this play and greatly reduce your roles. In this way, this play can be more full and more moving."

Su Xinghui's words made many people look at him. He Zongxin's role, isn't that Su Xinghui's role? The opinion Su Xinghui put forward is actually this opinion? Actively wanting to reduce his own role?

Everyone can naturally see that County Magistrate Lin in this play is Su Xinghui. In this play, Su Xinghui is the absolute protagonist. Everyone originally thought that Su Xinghui would be very satisfied with such a play, but the opinion he put forward really surprised everyone.

However, some people immediately felt that this was just Su Xinghui's posturing. He put forward this opinion, and He Zongxin just needs to make a slight change, and it will be fine. His role has not been reduced much, and he can also get a good reputation.

He Zongxin said, "County Magistrate Su, I think only the role of this protagonist is the most moving. These roles are very moving. I shed tears several times when writing this script. I think it's a pity to delete anything."

He Jianpeng also said, "Yes, County Magistrate, I think this script is written very well. Why delete the role? It's a pity to delete these roles."

Su Xinghui said firmly, "Head He, just change the script according to my opinion. I will come to watch the second rehearsal."

Su Xinghui meant that he wanted to personally check this play. He Zongxin could only nod and said, "Fine, County Magistrate Su, I will modify it according to your meaning."

Su Xinghui smiled and nodded and said, "Thank you!"

He Zongxin said, "County Magistrate Su is too polite."

Su Xinghui walked towards Hu Baguai again and said respectfully, "Teacher Hu, hello! You performed very well today!"

Hu Baguai is indeed worthy of respect. At the age of seventy, he is still performing on stage, and his singing, reading, doing, and fighting are still meticulous. It can be seen that he has profound basic skills, and he also brings the most laughter to the audience in this play.

The most critical thing is that it is late November now, and the weather is already quite cold. However, because a large part of what they performed was the story of midsummer, Hu Baguai only wore a close-fitting small jacket to the stage later, but he did not show any meaning of cold at all. Such professional spirit is really admirable.

Of course, now that they are thanking the curtain, they have all put on clothes.

Hu Baguai said, "County Magistrate Su, I don't dare to be. You can just call me Hu Baguai."

Su Xinghui said, "Teacher Hu, may I ask presumptuously, why do you have this name?"

Hu Baguai said, "It's okay, County Magistrate Su, just ask, nothing presumptuous. This name was given to me by the troupe leader when I first joined the troupe before the Liberation. At that time, he said I was ugly, just right to play a clown. He said I was an ugly monster, so he gave me this stage name. Later, others said my acting style was strange, so this name has been used ever since."

Su Xinghui nodded. He knew that it was not easy for the troupe to survive before the Liberation. In order to attract the audience, they often gave the actors in the troupe some relatively exaggerated stage names. Since Hu Baguai is a clown, it is very attractive to the audience to have the name Hu Baguai. ===== CHAPTER 2255 =====
