Chapter 196 Learn now and sell now
"What's going on? I asked you to find someone who can play the piano to be a substitute for Ruan Tang. Why did you find a girl for me?"
Director Wu was so angry that he slapped the storyboard in his hand.
The production manager scratched his head and said, "Director Wu, this is not my fault. There are fewer boys learning guzheng, and more learning piano."
He went to several interest classes but couldn't find a boy who wanted to learn the guzheng.
There was really no other way, so I pulled a girl over.
Seeing that the two of them were arguing because of you, the little girl standing next to the stage manager asked timidly, "Then... do you still want me? Do you still have the 500 yuan salary I promised you?"
Director Wu: …
"Yes, and I have salary too."
It would be inappropriate to chase someone away since they have come from so far away.
But Director Wu would not waste it, thinking of letting her play a maid or something.
The stage manager knew that he had not done his job well and was anxious.
"Director Wu, why don't we try filming first? I see that Ruan Tang's hands are also thin and white, so maybe it won't be so easy to expose the mistake."
"Haha, do you think the audience are all fools?"
No matter how thin a boy's hands are, they have distinct joints, and are thin and powerful.
Girls' hands are slender, white and round, like scallion white and smooth jade. How can they be the same?
"What should I do?"
Just when the two were racking their brains, Ruan Tang and a few others, who had changed into their costumes, came over.
Seeing that Director Wu looked unhappy, Ruan Tang asked, "Director Wu, what's wrong?"
"Oh!" Director Wu sighed and told him again that he had not found a substitute to play the piano.
Ruan Tang frowned and thought for a while, "How about I learn it now?"
"what?"
Everyone looked at him in a daze.
Especially Zhang Ting.
She had heard Ruan Tang sing before, and not a single syllable was in tune.
How is it possible to learn Guzheng right now?
Seeing the doubts on everyone's faces, Ruan Tang didn't care and explained: "I learned piano before. If you have a basic understanding of music theory, it will be easier to learn other instruments."
Having said that, the piano and the guzheng are two different instruments after all, and learning them on the spot doesn't sound reliable.
Zhang Ting opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she saw Ruan Tang had already walked over to the little girl next to the field manager and leaned over to say softly, "Can I ask you to be my teacher today?"
The little girl's face immediately flushed and she nodded shyly, "I do."
It was her first time to get close to a big star.
I’ve heard people say before that without makeup and filters, celebrities in the entertainment industry are no different from ordinary people.
But that’s obviously not the case. All these brothers and sisters in the crew are very good-looking.
Especially Ruan Tang, being so close to her, she could clearly see that there was not much makeup on her face.
On the contrary, her skin is as white as porcelain, without a single flaw.
His eyes were black and bright, as if they were filled with a handful of stars.
When she looked over, she felt her heart pounding.
"Director Wu, please give me some time. I'll try it first. If it doesn't work, we can think of another way."
Director Wu nodded, "Okay, you guys try it first, and shoot the other people's scenes first."
There is no better way right now.
Just like that, Director Wu took the others to today's shooting area to shoot other scenes first.
Ruan Tang and the little girl went to the props group and brought over a guzheng.
The guzheng was a bit big and the girl was petite, so Ruan Tang was afraid that it would be difficult for her to hold it, so he just took it from her.
"Let me do it."
"Thank you."
The tips of the little girl's ears turned red.
The two found a quiet and cool place and put the guzheng away.
Ruan Tang made a gesture of invitation, "Okay, teacher, let's get started."
The little girl nodded and sat in front of the guzheng with a red face.
"The piece you're going to play isn't difficult. I'll play it first and you can listen."
Her voice was not loud, but soft and gentle, the kind of soft Wu dialect that is unique to the Jiangnan region, and it was very pleasant to hear.
Ruan Tang had no objection.
The little girl took a deep breath and pressed on the strings.
The sound of the piano suddenly rose, like the gurgling of a stream, clear and pleasant to the ear.
While Ruan Tang was admiring her, his eyes were all focused on her hands.
He plucked the strings and played the instrument, memorizing every fingering technique in his mind.
After the song was over, the little girl looked at Ruan Tang and asked, "How do you feel?"
"It's not difficult."
He has almost memorized it all.
The girl nodded and said, "I will break down the sections and teach you how to play them."
Ruan Tang said, "Wait, teacher, can you let me try first?"
The little girl blinked in surprise, "Try it first?"
"It's what you just played. I remember it almost perfectly, so I want to try playing it again."
The little girl suddenly frowned in confusion.
Although she still liked Ruan Tang very much, this statement was a bit arrogant.
How is it possible to memorize such a long piece of music so easily?
Moreover, playing the guzheng requires not only melody but also fingering, and she hasn't taught you that yet.
But since the other party had already spoken, she felt embarrassed to refuse.
"Then you try it first."
Although she stood up to give Ruan Tang space, she didn't believe that he could jump out.
Ruan Tang lifted up his robe and sat next to the guzheng.
He did not start playing the piano immediately, but closed his eyes and recalled the fingering again.
Her fingers lightly placed on the strings, and her sparkling peach blossom eyes suddenly opened.
The white jade-like fingertips slightly lifted the slender strings, and the crisp string sounds rang out, and then poured out like running water.
At the beginning, it was a little unfamiliar, the tone was unstable, and you could hear a slight tremor.
But later, he became more and more proficient.
The sound of the zither echoed in the room, touching the heart.
The gentle breeze blew away the summer heat, and a young man in a white robe sat and played the piano. His black hair and clothes fluttered, as beautiful as a painting.
The suspicion on the little girl's face turned into surprise, her round almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, and her mouth opened wider than her fist.
"Teacher, how do I play?"
A gentle call brought the little girl back to her senses from her shock, and she looked at Ruan Tang with complicated eyes.
"Very good, there are only a few fingering mistakes, I will teach you..."
……
Half an hour later, Ruan Tang appeared in front of Director Wu holding the guqin and the little girl.
Seeing the two of them coming over so quickly, Director Wu immediately knew what was going on.
Most likely, you didn’t learn it.
Without waiting for anyone to speak, he patted Ruan Tang's shoulder comfortingly.
"It doesn't matter if you haven't learned it yet. We can just try to film it according to the production manager's method. If that doesn't work, let the makeup team figure out a way to put makeup on the hands or something..."
"Ah, no, Director Wu, I have already learned it."
Director Wu showed the same surprised expression as the little girl.
"Learned it?"
Ruan Tang nodded.
Director Wu didn't believe it and looked at the little girl next to him, "He can do it?"
The little girl nodded helplessly.
The world is full of such geniuses.
I learned to play the guzheng after just listening to her play once.
What should I do? I’m so angry, but I’m also a fan of Ruan Tang.
Who can not love a handsome, gentle and smart little brother?
