Of course, theater can indeed hone a person. However, it consus a lot of your energy, invades your personal space, and for six months to a year, you won’t be able to detach yourself to shoot films or TV shows.
Moreover, the reach of theater is very limited, and it’s not easy to turn it into a film or TV show, that requires separate production. The only audience you have is the few thousand people in the seats, so what if you perform well?
That’s why no popular stars go into theater. Unless they’re stuck in their acting career, or they want to make a coback, and they dive into theater to train, hoping to seize a role and perform excellently.
For a star, sotis the pay and endorsents aren’t important, what matters is traffic, is exposure. She would be tied up for six months acting in a play. A female star’s golden age is just a few years, once she hits thirty, her career begins to decline. By that ti, even if she doesn’t want to act, there will be plenty of ti and opportunities for her to do so. Besides, Xia Siyu can’t juggle multiple roles. So stars seem to have superpowers, working on several productions simultaneously and still winning awards, but Xia Siyu knows she’s not that kind of person; she wants to perform one role completely, otherwise, the gain wouldn’t be worth the loss.
Qin Baizhou was relieved when he ca in. He originally thought of turning off the microphone to comfort Xia Siyu, whose sensitive family issues had just been touched upon, otherwise, he suspected he couldn’t resist speaking up.
"Why suddenly decide to act in theater? Which troupe? National Theatre? People’s Art Theatre? Who are the perforrs you’re collaborating with? What role are you playing?"
Qin Baizhou knows that Xia Siyu is like a stubborn donkey, scolded it doesn’t move, hit it retreats, she can only be coaxed with kindness.
If she truly wants to act, it’s not impossible. Find an ensemble cast, she can choose a better character with fewer scenes. Of course, it requires the best team, find the best partners. Xia Siyu is top-tier, once she appears, all the nas need to be top-tier too.
She has to live in vibrant color, surrounded by flowers. By then, she can even buy a trending topic on "striving to improve acting skills", highlighting her as a talented actress.
Xia Siyu has been in the entertainnt industry for seven years, indeed lacking a significant award. To win an award requires acting skills and orchestration. Although Director Ji’s two films are good, they are traditional comrcial films, lacking breakthrough. But "Storm" and "Spring Light" are completely different. Xia Siyu has never lacked exposure, once she wins an award, she can instantly overshadow Shang Feifei and beco indisputably number one.
"It’s sothing like a one-act play, by a newbie director, the scriptwriter isn’t famous either, but the script is well-written, I think it’s quite good." Forgive her, although this guy has been cramming on culture recently, she still can’t feel the structure, the frawork, the symtry of theater; she only looks at the script.
She doesn’t understand, but Qin Baizhou does. A one-act play is perford from start to finish, the entire plot is completed in one setting, running continuously for two to three hours. There are not many characters, the pace is rather fast, and the plot advances quite fiercely. Indeed, it places extrely high demands on both the director and the playwright, even more so on the perforr. This is soone Bo Yan specially selects and trains for his film company; if the theater production is successful, it will later be adapted into a film.
If Xia Siyu can smoothly complete the performance, needless to say, the future Best Actress title is hers.
But Qin Baizhou is concerned about sothing else, his temples were throbbing. He knows he shouldn’t ask, but he still couldn’t help but say in a deep voice: "Did he introduce this to you?"
