Chapter 671 [The Musical Angel Who Doesn't Defend on the Basketball Court]
In the end, Guo Xu performed a little magic trick, he sat on a special chair and covered himself with a black cloak, and then quietly left through the mechanism. Christine's friend Meg also arrives at the Underground Palace and discovers the Phantom's cloak and mask.
The music stopped, the audience applauded, and the cheers of the fans almost knocked the roof of the Toyota Center over.
Playwright Andrew Webber also applauded, he felt that if someone else played "The Phantom of the Opera" in the future, he could make some changes according to this version, which would be more impressive.
The "mermaid" Xiella's version of Christine and Guo Xu's phantom have a deep relationship, and no one has acted like this before, which adds to the tragic effect. Look at how many viewers cried along with the scene, and you can see how good the response was.
At the curtain call, many actors took the stage together, and the protagonists stood in the front row.
Andrew gave a super high evaluation: "Jason, I don't know how to evaluate your performance. Because I know you don't make a career out of singing, and it would be unfair to the other actors if I were to say that this performance of yours was the best of all the Phantoms of the Opera I've ever seen, because they must have worked harder than you and gave more than you. ”
At the scene, countless viewers in front of the TV gasped.
Andrew continued: "But I still have to say that this show is my favorite. The three of you played the Phantom, Christine, and Raul are awesome. Jason, you're a true musical genius. ”
The audience applauded together, and this evaluation couldn't have been higher......
The playwright gave this kind of evaluation, and those who questioned him without hearing Guo Xu sing, and the people who sprayed him all became clowns and experienced Pippen-style embarrassment. If you don't know a person, you don't know a thing, it's better not to comment randomly.
Taking ignorance as personality, and ignorance as innocence, this kind of person is the saddest.
The musical lasted more than two and a half hours and included an intermission and a regular curtain call. There's a break of more than an hour after the musical, the crew cleans up the venue, and the audience goes for a bite to eat and watch the All-Star Rookie Challenge.
Guo Xu held a press conference and talked about some of his feelings.
"I rehearsed the musical more seriously than I played, because it was much harder for me than playing. I knew what to do on the pitch, but I had no experience in musicals. On the pitch I almost had teammates, and I had to rely on myself to play the Phantom, but luckily it turned out to be good. ”
The reporter asked: "You didn't imitate any version of the Phantom's performance, how did you come up with the idea of acting like this?" ”
Guo Xu smiled: "I imagine this as a movie, whether it is acting or singing, it is what I think it is, I think if I am a phantom, it will be like this." Before the performance, I don't know if the audience will accept it. ”
There was applause in the venue, and the reporters believed that this would be a good story.
Talking nonsense with his eyes open, Jason Guo is so cool, that's how he gets into the play, anyway, now "Ramen" Callemuro is not famous, he has never played a phantom, and no one can debunk him.
In the future, when "Ramen" plays the phantom again, he will be said to be Guo Xu's imitator, even if he sings better. As a "Li Ghost", there is no one more successful than Guo Xu.
Guo Xu's performance is not good, it is called a strange thing, and some of the important details that are brilliant are performed according to the 25th anniversary version, which is determined after 25 years of repeated scrutiny, of course, it is stronger than the current version.
Of course, Guo Xu will not rob the job of "ramen", and "ramen" is destined to become a legend. Because he is the only one who has played Christine's favorite three men, in 2003 he had already played Viscount Raul, in 2004 he played Christine's father in the movie, appeared in black and white photos, and played the Phantom until 2007.
The reporter asked: "Now that many viewers want you to perform a few more shows, and this matter is being discussed on the Internet, will you consider doing it again?" ”
"Maybe I will act in the future, but not this year, it's not an easy thing to soar the high notes, I'm relatively easy, the high part of Ciella is really difficult, she's super good, I'm very happy to work with her. Of course Patrick is also very good, and we will work together again in a new sci-fi film. ”
The reporter asked: "When you usually rehearse, is Megan jealous?" She's not afraid that you really like Sila Ella? ”
"You think too much, I go to play away games a lot, and they hang out together more than I see Ciella." Guo Xu paused for a moment and said with a smile: "When we rehearse, we mainly practice songs, not singing once and kissing once until now." Or do you think Patrick and her kiss in circles every time they sing a love song? ”
The reporter asked: "You haven't gone to film and television school, how did you practice your acting skills?" ”
"Substitution method, I fantasize about myself as a phantom, and the heroine as Megan."
The reporter asked: "Aren't you afraid that you will be too deep into the play and you won't be able to get out of the play?" ”
"How is that possible? I'm not disfigured, I don't feel inferior like the Phantom, my life is good. ”
The reporters agreed that if Guo Xu still had low self-esteem, everyone else would not live.
At the same time, online fans are talking about musicals and Guo Xu's acting skills, and no one is talking about his skills.
"It's amazing that Jason can be successful in Hollywood or on Broadway, and if the movie version were starring him and this heroine, the box office would be doubled."
"When my mother came in, she asked me why I was crying so badly when I was kneeling watching TV. I don't even know how to explain it. ”
"The last scene is really touching, the acting skills of the two are so perfect, the heroine was not famous at all before, and Jason can also drive his teammates in the entertainment industry."
"Oh my God, the people on Broadway have changed their tunes, and I think it's better to praise Jason for singing well, and he won't be called The Flash in the future, and the nickname has been changed to 'The Musical Angel Who Doesn't Defend on the Basketball Court,' which I think is more appropriate."
Chinese netizens, who rarely pay attention to musicals, also discussed Guo Xu.
"I heard that "Singing in the Middle of the Night" is adapted from this story, the domestic song is far from Guo Xu's version, and I can't listen to the Chinese version sung by Fei Xiang, both men and women sing too low."
"I don't know when the high-definition video will be released, I must collect it, and suddenly I like musicals a little."
"Guo Xu is playing more and more high-end, today he is simply handsome, and he can lead the Suns to the best record when he plays."
Originally, Stern hoped that Guo Xu would use the musical to warm up the rookie game and divert people's attention from the Battle of Auburn Hills Palace. Now he's overdone it, and the rookies' attention has dropped dramatically.
The leading stars of the first year are Chris Paul and Andrew Bogut, and compared to Guo Xu, people don't think that Queen Bee and braggart have anything to look at.
In terms of overall strength, last year's stars were bright, this year's stars are dim, and there is not a single big-name rookie in the two teams.
Last season's rookie game ratings were nearly double that of this year, and James and Wade were selected to the Eastern Conference All-Star team while participating in the rookie game, which was very eye-catching.
A year later, no rookie player, in either sophomore or freshman class, made the All-Star team.
Even if today's performance can be inside and out, Iguodala, who has performed wonderful dunks again and again, is only Iverson's assistant in the 76ers, averaging 12+6+3 role players per game.
There were few bright spots in the game, and apart from a couple of dunks by Iguodala, the crowd applauded very little.
In the end, Iguodala won the MVP of the Rookie Game, performing nine dunks and hitting four three-pointers, becoming the seventh player in Rookie Challenge history to score 30 points.
