The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

More than 20 teachers from the Royal Academy of Art lined up on the stage to shake hands with Zhou Hexuan, and they all showed great respect.

But most of the hundreds of students in the audience were stunned, they only thought that Zhou Hexuan's speech was profound. Few people realize that what they have just heard is a sensational academic achievement in the field of drama studies.

how to say?

Just like reinterpreting "Dream of Red Mansions" in China, and creating a new direction of "Redology" research, it is no wonder that experts are not crazy because of this!

The teachers clapped their hands respectfully to send Zhou Hexuan away. Vivian leaned over curiously and asked her drama teacher Jason, "Professor, did Mr. Zhou speak well just now? I didn't understand something."

Professor Jensen said in admiration: "It is not only wonderful, it is simply amazing. There is no doubt that Mr. Zhou is one of the greatest Shakespeare drama researchers today. His research concept is groundbreaking and an unprecedented academic discovery. !"

"So powerful?" Vivienne's eyes widened, feeling unbelievable.

Shakespeare's influence in the world has gone far beyond the category of dramatists. He represents the highest artistic achievement of Britain's most glorious era. As Britain became an empire on which the sun never sets, Shakespeare's plays symbolized the height of civilization and belonged to an insurmountable artistic monument.

Because of this, when Western learning spread eastward in the late Qing Dynasty, Shakespeare's plays were also introduced into China as advanced literature and art.

Yan Fu translated Shakespeare into "Speer", but only briefly mentioned a few words. Liang Qichao officially named it "Shakespeare", but unfortunately it still did not attract widespread attention. After the New Culture Movement, Tian Han translated a series of Shakespeare's works, but only gained popularity among progressive intellectuals.

Ever since, the Chinese translators feel ashamed. The Chinese people don't know how to appreciate Shakespeare, a great writer. It's really shameful!

In recent years, Chinese translators and drama critics have been translating and studying Shakespeare almost with the mentality of saving the country. It seems that as long as the Chinese people accept and worship Shakespeare, China will be able to break away from barbarism and evolve into a civilized age.

Not only China, but the United States is not much better. It has already regarded Shakespeare as the god of literature and drama.

Even if Zhou Hexuan does not have any other achievements, as long as he wears the hat of "Shakespeare research expert", he can walk sideways all over the world.

Two girls, Vivienne and Dani, wanted to get close to her, but they didn't have any chance at all. Zhou Hexuan was surrounded by teachers and students of the school. The principal of the Royal Academy of Arts personally acted as a bodyguard to open the way for Zhou Hexuan, and finally invited him to the conference room for academic exchanges.

The entire Royal Academy of Art announced a one-day suspension of classes, and all professors and lecturers gathered together to ask Zhou Hexuan for new ideas for studying Shakespeare's plays.

As long as the results of this research on Shakespeare's plays are published, it will be famous all over the world, and the Royal Academy of Arts will also be honored. At the same time, the teachers of the school will become experts in Shakespeare studies.

Witnessing all this, Vivienne said to herself, "It's crazy, the whole school revolves around Mr. Zhou."

Dany worshiped so much, she put her hands together and said, "This is my ideal Prince Charming, young, handsome, wise, and talented...God, I must go back to Asia with him, and I want to be his wife. Just one of the wives is fine!"

"Are you crazy too?" Vivienne laughed.

Standing downstairs, Dani pointed to the meeting room on the second floor and said, "I'll just wait here for Mr. Zhou to come down, and I'll just stand here until I meet him!"

Vivian shrugged: "It's almost noon, do you need me to bring you something to eat?"

"Of course I want soft bread," said Dany.

"Then you wait slowly, I'm going to have lunch." Although Vivienne also wanted to listen to Master Zhou's teachings, she still had reason and couldn't be as crazy as Dani acted.

When Vivian came back with bread after lunch, Dani was still waiting patiently downstairs, and Vivian could only wait with her.

Finally, it was almost evening, and the two girls saw Zhou Hexuan appearing surrounded by teachers. But before they had time to speak, they saw Zhou Hexuan going to dinner with the teachers, discussing drama research issues while walking.

Vivian said helplessly: "Let's go, Danni, you have no hope."

Dani said resolutely: "No, I must try. This is a good opportunity that cannot be missed. As long as I get to know Mr. Zhou, I will be famous in the British theater circle. Great convenience."

During the Great Depression, the landlords had no surplus food!

Dani was born into a family of small merchants, but the family business has reached the brink of bankruptcy. If she doesn't use extreme measures, she will have to work hard for many years to get ahead slowly, but once she gets involved with a great writer like Zhou Hexuan, her future will be bright in an instant.

The two girls became attendants and waited outside the restaurant until dark, and finally saw Zhou Hexuan bid farewell to the teachers.

Under the influence of the economic crisis, taxis in the UK have basically stopped operating. Zhou Hexuan can only walk to the station and take the tram back to the hotel.

Dani hurried to catch up and shouted: "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou!"

Due to the dim light of the street lamps, Zhou Hexuan only saw the silhouettes of two women running towards him. He smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"

Dani gasped and said, "Mr. Zhou, I am Dani Munster, a student of the Royal Academy of Arts. I was very shocked after listening to your drama lecture today, and I hope to continue to listen to your teachings."

"Uh, it's very late today." Zhou Hexuan declined politely.

Dani persisted and said, "Why don't we go to the coffee shop for a drink, my treat."

Zhou Hexuan said, "Let's wait another day."

"Please, Mr. Zhou, just have a cup of coffee." Dani stepped forward and took Zhou Hexuan's arm. Sun Yongzhen, who was in charge of security affairs, did not stop him. He thought that the husband's affair should not be disturbed.

Well, this bodyguard is extremely irresponsible!

Zhou Hexuan felt a little headache, so he could only agree, "That's fine."

Dani turned her head and blinked at Vivienne, and waved: "Mary, see you tomorrow!"

Although Vivienne wanted to keep up, but she didn't want to spoil the good things of her best friend, so she could only smile: "Goodbye."

Zhou Hexuan didn't want to be eaten by the female goblin, so he quickly found a light bulb and said to Vivian, "This classmate should go too."

Vivienne and Dani looked at each other, and Dani smiled generously, "Mary, let's go."

The three of them walked to a nearby cafe. Zhou Hexuan didn't see Vivienne's face clearly until the lights were brightly lit, and he was instantly blinded by amazement.

The oval face with a slightly tapered chin, the facial features are as delicate as if carved out, and the skin is smooth and delicate. Especially those gray-blue eyes, with a hint of wildness and cunning in their frailty, they are simply a natural stunner.

Zhou Hexuan sat down calmly, ordered coffee and tentatively said, "I don't know the lady's name yet."

"Vivienne," replied Vivienne, "Vivienne Mary Hartley."

Zhou Hexuan thought to himself: The name matches, it really is her, Vivien Leigh!

"Vivienne" is "Vivien", but the translation is different. The modern translation of "Vivien Leigh" should be called "Vivien Leigh". This translation method was popular during the Republic of China, and people liked to add a Chinese surname to foreigners.

Throughout the Western world in the 20th century, there were two peerless beauties who could not be distinguished, one was Vivien Leigh and the other was Audrey Hepburn.

"Gone with the Wind", "Blue Bridge", "Anna Karenina"... Zhou Hexuan has seen too many classic films of Vivien Leigh, so he can recognize them at a glance.

Danni soon found out that something was wrong. She obviously asked Zhou Hexuan to come over for coffee, but Zhou Hexuan's attention was all on his best friend. The couple chatted happily, Zhou Hexuan's witty remarks made Vivien Leigh laugh from time to time, and Danni had been completely reduced to a foil.

Fireproof, anti-theft, and girlfriend-proof!

Seeing the passage of time, Dani wanted to interject many times, but it was only as an addition to the chat. She was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Zhou Hexuan was having a headache about choosing a dance partner, and now he suddenly had an idea, and sent out an invitation: "Mary, I will attend Prince Albert's ball tomorrow, can you do me the favor of being my dance partner?"

"Prince Ball!"

Vivien Leigh and Dani cried out in surprise at the same time. The royal ball was too far away for them, and they had never even thought about it before.

Vivien Leigh was like Cinderella who received the invitation, she nodded without thinking, "I do!"

"Mary!" Dany glared at her best friend, she thought it was Vivien Leigh who robbed her of the prom.

Vivien Leigh was taken aback, and then had a hard time making a choice. She felt as if she had betrayed her friend, but she really didn't want to give up this opportunity.

Zhou Hexuan smiled without saying a word, drinking coffee and waiting for Vivien Leigh's decision.

Vivien Li quietly lowered her head and kept silent. In fact, she had already expressed her heart, but she didn't have the face to talk to her best friend again.

"Hmph, I hate you guys so much!" Danny was so angry that her voice trembled, she stood up abruptly and ran for the door.

Vivien Li hurriedly got up and chased after her. When she reached the door, she turned around and shouted, "Mr. Zhou, I'll wait for you at school tomorrow!"

Zhou Hexuan asked the waiter to pay the bill with a smile. She already knew Vivien Leigh's character. She was a cautious woman.
