Chapter 84

On the stage.

Qiao Shan took off the hat hanging on the pillar, squeezed it in his hands, and put it on his head.

The stick is on the ground, and the legs are separated into a figure of eight.

He smiled silently at the crowd, then began to walk a few steps forward, swaying from side to side.

"Farewell."

Except for the old man, several people called out the name of the character Qiao Shan was performing at the same time in surprise.

Holding a cane and wearing a top hat, the short and wobbly walker is the comedy master they know, Farewell.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Shan chose to play such a character.

You must know that Farewell's performance can be described as a classic.

Because it is very difficult to express laughter without sound.

This is precisely because Chapman happened to be speaking in that era of silent films, but he became a master of the generation by virtue of his rich facial expressions and movements.

"Haha... the brawny version of Xiao Linzi, if he could see it, he would definitely jump up and beat you."

Ye Qing laughed loudly.

At first, Qiao Shan's outfit seemed familiar to him, but when the children called out their names, he immediately remembered it.

The reason why he didn't remember it was probably because the Charlie Chaplin in his memory was small, thin and weak.

But Qiao Shan was too fat, and apart from the somewhat similar movements, he really didn't see the shadow of Xiao Linzi.

Hearing Ye Qing's address to Zhuo Bielin, the audience in the live broadcast room were the first to react.

They were all stunned.

"Xiao Linzi?"

"The old man actually called Chaplin Chaplin as Xiao Linzi."

"My God, the old man knows that comedy master."

"It's just incredible."

"Talk about the nickname given to Chaplin by the old man. What is the relationship between them?"

"If the old man doesn't say anything, we have nowhere to investigate."

"Let's watch the fat version of Charlie Chak first."

……

Ye Qing watched Qiao Shan's performance on stage and laughed out loud.

Although Qiao Shan and Xiao Linzi's body shapes are different, Qiao Shan's fat body combined with Xiao Linzi's movements is another kind of fun.

"Fat boy, let the chin be sunken a little further into the neck, but Xiao Linzi has exposed the entire double chin, and the thick flesh of your chin should also be shown."

He smiled and pointed out the characteristics of Xiao Linzi's performance to Qiao Shan on the stage.

Since one wants to imitate, the essence must be exposed, right?

After Ye Qing called Xiao Linzi again, the people around turned their attention to Ye Qing.

Xiao Linzi?
I didn't pay much attention when I heard it just now, but now the old man is referring to him intimately and pointing out the wrongness of Qiao Shan's performance.

This shows that the old man and Chapman should be familiar people.

Otherwise, the old man wouldn't call him that if he just watched the movie.

"Grandpa, do you know Charlie Chak?"

Zhang Zifeng obviously understood this too, so he asked his own question.

"I know, I have been raising it for a while."

Ye Qing didn't take his eyes off the performance, looked at Qiao Shan's improved movements after listening to his words, and answered while laughing.

The child had been with his father in the theater troupe since he was a child, and his father died not long after leaving the theater that year, and the child was only a teenager.

And his brother was not around.

So Xiao Linzi wanted to live, so he started looking for work everywhere to be a laborer.

It was also because of Xiao Linzi's job selling newspapers that the two of them got to know each other.

I remember that day when the kid delivered the newspaper, he watched the steak in his hand and swallowed.

He could tell that Xiao Linzi hadn't had enough to eat for some time, and after asking, knowing that the child was living alone now, he told him to let Xiao Linzi live with him until his brother came back.

"You raise him?"

Several people were stunned.

Although they all know that Chaplin is a master of comedy, they don't know anything about Chaplin's life.

The old man raised Zhuo Farewell?
What's happening here?
"The child's father died when he was 12 years old, and his brother was not around. He was full and hungry. I just met him and let him live with me for a while."

"Then since he lives with you, how did he do comedy performances?"

Yixing was a little puzzled.

The old man is a man with a lot of wealth, if Zhuo Bielin lived with the old man, how could he become an actor.

Then you must go to school for education.

"He only lived with me for three years, until his brother came back and found him. His brother was performing on a boat. He knew that Xiao Linzi had a high talent for acting, so he taught Xiao Linzi acting skills after he came back, and told him A well-known troupe is recruiting people, so I asked him to give it a try."

When Ye Qing talked about Chaplin Chaplin entering the troupe, his eyes lowered slightly, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued:

"After staying with this kid for a few years, I still have some feelings. When I knew that he was going to join the troupe and stop studying, I was quite angry to be honest. But after seeing his performance, I agreed."

As for Chaplin, at that time he thought that if the child's family members were gone, he would take good care of him and become a writer or something.

But unexpectedly, his older brother Sidney came back and taught Chaplin how to act and asked him to join the troupe.

How could he be so strong in his heart.

But when he saw Xiao Linzi's spiritual performance, he had to agree with Sidney.

Chaplin is indeed very talented in acting.

He also supported him to perform.

"If you didn't agree, how could the name of comedy master be born."

"It's all his talent."

Ye Qing smiled slightly and waved his hands.

If he hadn't shown his talent, how could he have agreed, after all, he initially regarded the child as a companion who would follow him around the world.

But this kid's talent is indeed high, within three years, this little Linzi acted as the main actor in a play, and he even wrote a letter to tell him the good news.

From that first letter onwards, Farewell Chaucer would write to inform whenever there was good news, especially since he himself became a producer, and even invited him back to Fog City to watch his performance.

"By the way, the letters between the two of us seem to be still there. I'll show them to you another day."

"It's too much, I worked hard to act, and you guys actually started chatting."

As soon as Ye Qing finished speaking, Qiao Shan walked up to them, pretending to be unhappy.

It was hard for him not to be lazy, and he went up to perform for them, but they chatted happily and forgot that he was such a person.

"The old man raised Chaplin, who can take care of you?"

Liu Xiaoyi pulled the Qiao shirt that was inserted suddenly to the side, and after explaining, he turned his gaze back to the old man.

"Old man, all we see is the image in the movie, so is he dressed like that in reality?"

He remembered that when he knew about Farewell Chaucer, the films of the other party included wide-leg pants, big-toed shoes, a stick that never left his hand, and a very characteristic mustache.

Is it possible that Charlie Chaplin also looks like that in reality?

"In the early years, Xiao Linzi was quite handsome, but because of his handsome face, he always felt that the audience didn't care about his performance, so he came up with such a trick to make the audience pay attention On the show."

After Ye Qing finished speaking, he looked at the few people present and shook his head slightly.

"The ones you're acting in now are just thinking about how to show your good looks, and you don't care about acting skills at all."

He has watched the current video these days.

It simply blinded him.

If you are so handsome and have no acting skills, then you are not an actor, but a vase.

"I care."

When Qiao Shan heard this, he immediately raised his hand to refute.

He still cares about how well he performs and whether he will bring joy to the audience.

After all, a comedian's job is to make people laugh.

"That's because you are not good-looking."

Ye Qing didn't look at Qiao Shan, and responded directly.

This fat boy really likes to talk.

In his opinion, if he is not good-looking and his acting skills are not good, then what kind of actor should he be?

So this fat boy is good at acting, that's what he has to do.
