[Soldiers Sortie/Xing-Zhang] One-Act Play

Dreaming about Life——Reading "One Act Play" by Shu Ying Inscription: "Life is like a one-act play. It starts with a long wait and preparation, and then comes the opening, climax, ending, and ending. It is enough to have one or two confidants along the way." ——"One Act Play" (All the words in the following text that are in quotation marks but do not indicate their sources are from the original text of "One Act Play" and will not be noted one by one.) 1. The play within the play, the spirit outside the play—about the main line of the story To put it simply, "One Act Play" tells the story of Xing and Zhang performing a play on the same stage. The time is set about two years after the broadcast of "Leader". After the most lively and noisy time of the Corps has passed, each actor gradually returns to his own life track, doing what he should do and acting in his own drama. At this time, Xing introduced Zhang to participate in a drama. The name of the play is "Station". So, this is another story with a play within a play. "Station" is a play written by the writer □□ in the early 1980s. It tells the story of a group of ordinary people waiting for a bus that was supposed to arrive on an ordinary day, but never did. Waiting and leaving, persistence and pursuit, persistence and letting go... Many questions unfold quietly in this short drama. The story of "Station" is very simple, just like the story of "One Act Play" is also very simple. From the time Xing and Zhang came into contact with the script, figured out the plot, rehearsed the drama, understood the characters, discussed and pondered, and then reflected on life, the opening and closing, and the end of the play. The whole story is also a one-act play. An actor will perform many plays in his life, and each rehearsal and performance only takes up a few months or years of his life. However, who can say that it is just a play and not a real life? The process of acting is the most real life experience for actors; life outside the theater actually becomes the actor's soul on the stage. In that scene, which was less than an hour long, who were the actors and who were the audience? In that story, that story of just over 40,000 words, who is writing and who is listening? Who has ever stood infatuated on the stage? Who ever applauded silently off the stage? Who is drinking and singing on the screen? Who is laughing off the screen? In the story, a certain Xing, after watching "Secret Love in Peach Blossom Spring", ran to the toilet and cried for the epiphany at the end. Outside the story, I looked at the silent people and the old man rehearsing backstage and my heart trembled, because of that moment of tacit understanding in their eyes. In the story, Zhang Xiaofan said: "This is us. This is the stage. ... The stage and the people are enough to form a complete life that is haunting, inseparable, and inseparable. But after leaving the stage, it is a different scene." Acting is really a very special profession and a very special identity. How can you tell the difference between the inside and outside of the play? No need to distinguish. 2. Hiding the heart as a dream, sand and starry sky - about friends, confidants, and feelings "A grain of sand blew from the distant starry sky." ——"Distant Starry Sky, A Grain of Sand" Lai Shengchuan The fate between people is really amazing. Maybe a few years ago, you didn't know that this person existed in the world, but after a few years, you and this person will no longer have to distinguish each other. Where is he from? Where to go? Two grains of dust in the starry sky meet and then separate. There is a world in a grain of sand, do you know what you have encountered? Encounter does not require too many surprises; separation does not require too much retention. All he knew was that his eyes were lingering behind him at that moment. Xing and Zhang are two such friends. Before taking the photos of the soldiers, we didn't even know each other existed. However, after the filming, the two people have become tacit friends. He played the class monitor, he played the class deputy; he played Meng Fanle, he played Yu Xiaoqing; he played The Cherry Orchard, he played Monument... He walked into the same TV drama crew from different drama troupes, and then walked on to different stages from the same TV drama. Everything seems to be one coincidence after another. So, will there be another coincidence that will allow them to gather on the same stage and perform the same play? "If the 'coincidence' is known to others at the moment it happens, then there will be no coincidence at all. That's why it is said that life is like a play, and play is like life." However, all "coincidences" are also caused by chance. In the story, Lan 49 adapted a new script, Xing Xiaoqing got a new play, and Zhang Xiaofan got the opportunity to recruit external actors... They entered the same crew. Everything seems accidental, but it is not accidental. It allows Xing Xing to calmly ignore the halo of Deputy Wu and Teacher Yu, and play a person with no lines. It's because he "wanted to play better roles, which had nothing to do with fame, but mainly to satisfy myself." As for Zhang Xiaofan, Xing Xiaoqing gave him such an opportunity, "but what he really grasped was himself." Xing recommended him to act in this play because he knew that his understanding and expectations of the stage were the same as his own. For Zhang, as soon as he saw the yellowed manuscript scanned page, he knew that he and the other person had found the same world. There is a tacit understanding between close friends that does not need to be explained too much. Because I know that even if I stand in different places, I still look in the same direction. There is no need to ask or hesitate. I really like an interaction in the story: "Lan Sijiu drew all the heavy curtains, and the rehearsal room suddenly became dark. A beam of light came down from the ceiling. Xing Xiaoqing walked to the center of the beam of light and looked at his watch. Zhang Xiaofan came up from the other end. He used ordinary steps, obviously forgetting that his character was an old man in his sixties, and Stardust was still being staged next door. He was distracted by the lines. However, when he walked to Xing Xiaoqing, Xing Xiaoqing stretched out his hand to help him, and the warmth in his hand came through his shirt. He immediately woke up, staggered, then stood up and said "thank you" in a low voice. From the beginning of the audition, this series of actions were not in the script, but Zhang Xiaofan's heart was inexplicably settled. The interference next door seemed to drift away with the wind, and the following lines were read out: 'The car just passed by? '" Compared with TV dramas, this is the interesting thing about dramas. The performance of the TV series is finalized. The performance of the drama will be different every time. There are some little touches that may not be present in any other game. The tacit understanding between actors and the expression of their eyes will also be improved day by day with each rehearsal and performance, and new insights will evolve. The same script, in the hands of different actors, will produce different effects. And two tacit partners will allow each other to better enter the character's state and explore their own potential. This is the case with Xing Zhang in the play. With a gentle stretch of his hand, Xing Xiaoqing could remind him that he was playing the role of an old man. A gentle support and a stagger at the same time also allowed Zhang Xiaofan to grasp his position and give an appropriate response, creating a dramatic atmosphere. So, when we watched this one-act play co-starred by Xing and Zhang, the real highlight was not on the day of the performance, but from the moment we got the script and rehearsed the performance... Then, during rehearsal after rehearsal, Xing and Zhang's smooth dialogue and tacit eye contact made the word "bosom friend" even more full. The true love between friends is like water that flows long and still water runs deep. I won't get entangled and sad about who will be with whom longer, and I won't worry about gains and losses in order to spend more time together. When they drink together at the food stalls, run together in the heavy rain, keep warm in the cold wind together, and curse and laugh with their brothers together? Have you ever thought about wanting this happiness to stay and stay forever? "Just when he was about to slip into sleep, a vague thought came to Zhang Xiaofan's mind - maybe he can really drink freely someday, but the love and scene at that time will never come back after they have passed. Running hand in hand in the rainy night was only once. It is enough to commemorate a lifetime." Perhaps, indeed, they wanted to be together again and stay together again. However, 249 said, Conlan "will no longer cooperate." Xing Xiaoqing said, "It's not good if it's too perfect." Good friends are hard to find and good times are hard to keep. But we can't stop time or friends because of this. The past events we stop to collect, no matter how happy they are, are nothing more than yellowed photos and faded specimens. Let go of your hand that clings to happiness, and quietly watch friendships go and stay, and watch the reunions and separations. Bearing and enjoying the joy, anger, sorrow and joy of this moment are the living emotions. When Xing Xiaoqing looked at Zhang Xiaofan who was gradually walking into the crowd outside the subway in the subway, she wondered if she was thinking the same thing? That night in Beijing, the wine was flowing, the people were having fun, and the songs were singing leisurely. One night in beijing I left a lot of feelings Whether you love it or not, it is the dust of history. 3. One time, one time, one life, one life - about pursuit and persistence "People say that in the depths of the flowers... The old man with a serene face is still waiting for the returnee from the expedition." ——"One Night in Beijing" by Chen Sheng Many times, people work hard but don't know whether they should continue to persist and wait. The old man in "The Station" waits for the bus that never comes in order to pursue an unfinished chess game. Maybe, if you persist a little longer, you can wait for the car you want to wait for, see the person you want to see, and realize the dream in your heart. So should you wait or shouldn't you wait? The silent man looked at the confused crowd and turned to leave. Walk towards the unknown long road ahead without waiting for transportation that may be convenient. Is it an adventure? Is it stupidity? Or... Just stop being persistent? Some things were once the best dreams in my heart. However, everything will change, and the beauty that is still there waiting for you to come back and find it does not exist. In Zhang Xiaofan's heart, he will never forget the theater where you could watch a play for a few dollars for a night, and the blue bricks that bear the traces of time. But—— "The more Zhang Xiaofan thought about it that night, the more depressed he became. Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou on the new poster of "Farewell My Concubine" smiled at him slightly inside the glass frame, but he felt that the two people on the wall were now completely framed, and the distant world no longer belonged to him." Persistence and waiting should not stop following external things. "Zhang Xiaofan feels that he will never go to Maoer Hutong again. The reason why he misses a place is because it has a close connection with him. After this emotional connection is severed, the simple location no longer matters." Perseverance comes from the expectation of the heart—— "It's sublimated. In the past, when Lao Kang's drama was very popular, I was always worried that I would never be able to escape its shadow. But now, this drama has just been scheduled for a day, and I already feel that I am standing under a new sky." Xing Xiaoqing replied calmly, "As long as you want to move forward, nothing can cover you for the rest of your life. The only thing that can trap you is your own heart." "The more I say I don't care, the more I care. The more I worry about leaving, the more I actually don't want to leave. Because I can't do it, I set limits for myself." Therefore, what is called a thousand years of waiting is actually just holding a piece of warmth in the heart, regardless of whether the beloved returns. Therefore, the persistence that cannot be let go is just a dream in the heart, regardless of whether it can really be realized. The vicissitudes of external things, it doesn't matter who they belong to or who they don't belong to. Whether to be persistent or not is a matter of conscience. 4. A dream like a dream, a play on life - about life, death and letting go "Life is like a dream, if a dream is not a dream, life is like a dream, but it is like a dream." ——"Dream Like a Dream" by Lai Shengchuan In the story, Xing Xiaoqing sent away his father. In the drama, the silent person finally lets go and leaves the confused crowd. The father could no longer recognize his son at the last moment. "All the colors on the stage no longer meant anything to him, and they all turned into a chaotic mass of color." But, still, the father watched his son perform. Xing Xiaoqing said, "Some things, if delayed for too long, will become eternal regrets that can never be repaired." Having converted, he can regard death as another journey of life. No longer obsessed with life and death. But we still want the new journey to start in a peaceful and regret-free state of mind. This state of mind is for the deceased as well as the living. After all, many truths can be spoken and understood in the heart, but true relief and peace of mind are not so easy for anyone to achieve. Only when you understand death can you understand life. Therefore, in the face of life and death, Xing Xiaoqing gradually realized the feeling of a silent person, and Zhang Xiaofan found the state of an old man. A silent person walks on a road that no one else has taken. Whether he is ridiculed or envied, he must walk alone. He is "like the North Star shining in the dark night. Although he is silent, he has a powerful force that makes it impossible to ignore his presence." The old man "helplessly watched himself grow old while waiting in despair, becoming bone-chilling from head to toe. The various people around him surrounded the entire environment into a swamp, and he could only sink deep into it, never finding a way out." Whether each person can truly be liberated depends on himself, not others. If you can't get out, even death cannot be the path to liberation. And when the living let go of themselves, they will naturally have a moment to come out. "Zhang Xiaofan... The cashier stared at him a few times while paying, and finally said nothing. After all, soldiers and regiment leaders are already a thing of the past. Over the past few years, better and more eye-catching works have emerged one after another. Although the process of them being forgotten is slow, it is final and resolute. When the time comes, who will remember whom, gain a few friendships, and it is enough for us to miss each other. Sometimes it is a good thing to be forgotten, so that we can fall back to the ground from floating in the air, re-examine our true strength and status, continue to accumulate, and then make another leap." Thus, Zhang Xiaofan and Xing Xiaoqing walked into the same drama again and walked out of another sky together. "Be a human being before doing anything, and be a human being before acting. Successful drama can never be divorced from real life and people. To interpret a successful role depends not only on the actor's talent, but also on learning to experience and explore in life. Along the way, under the drama stage and outside the theater, he and he have seen a more vivid and flexible life." This is just a short story. At the end of the story, Xing Xiaoqing and Zhang Xiaofan waved goodbye in the subway. You have your station, I have mine, and there will be new stories on each platform. The train keeps moving forward and will not stop for anyone. What lingered was the look at the back. What we are waiting for is the "coincidence" of the next encounter. Therefore, I really like the way the story of Xing and Zhang is handled throughout the article. Such a tacit understanding and close friendship, with attachment, concern, understanding, and hard work, but without too much desire, selfishness, or persistence. Just because that gaze always stayed on the other person's body, instead of just looking at himself. There is no need for a long text or a large structure. Just describing a hand in hand and an encounter in life is enough to describe the true love between each other. There is no need to miss the past or look forward to the future. The warmth of a lifetime is the combination of these moments. Now there is warmth, now we have each other in our hearts, this is enough.

It's very real and calm, but I feel very sad. Looking at Xing and Zhang Wen, seeing the two people hesitating to speak, wanting to get closer but hesitating on the same spot, I feel extremely sad in my heart. They are together forever. I give myself this psychological hint all the time, just because I am afraid that the initial beauty will fade away as time goes by.

It's so well written, and the author's mood at the end is really relatable.

The writing is so good TT

Oh my god. . . 13 Years agoTT

I really like this article, that's actually it, it's pretty good. Like a kind of faint beauty, it evokes aftertaste.

In fact, this kind of shallow intersection is more memorable. . . . Meng Zhenren is so confused. . . . If it's more, it's fake; if it's less, it's bland. . . .

Like it very much. I am a serious Beijinger by birth, but I am not very familiar with the foothills of the Imperial City. It's just that the feelings that have been exaggerated in the article are similar to the ones in my mind. Like the Line 1 subway, it's old and noisy, but everything is going on, moving forward quickly and never looking back. The reality of real-person CP is always a confusing thing, but I really like the people you write. Staying together for a long time may just be a wish to do the best. Being with you during the journey is probably a very good ending.

The surging feelings that were once hidden in my heart may be best left alone. But I believe this will be a memory they will never forget.

[Soldier Assault/Xing Zhang] One-act play? I was stunned for a moment, why didn't I have any impression of Xing Xiaoqing and Zhang Xiaofan? I thought it was Xing Jiadong... That... Maybe my first exposure to soldier BL fanfic...
