Turbulent Times Chapter 498: The first play


(Thank you very much for the generosity and monthly ticket support of 'apharmy', 'xmz123456', 'gentle madman'.)

During this period, the costumes, props, lines, and makeup were all guided by Nie Xiaoyu one by one, and Mr. Sun and his gang were meticulously prepared with the support of Jingtian's human, material, and financial resources.

Of course, there is also the background music that Wang Junlin specially reminded. Due to the constraints of this era, Nie Xiaoyu, Old Man Sun, and Jing Tian thought of a lot of ways, and finally made money by ventriloquist in another Washi Goulan. The dwarfs in the house were dug up by forcing a high price. All of this was naturally for the purpose of allowing customers to pay for it happily, and then vigorously publicized the drama to attract more guests.

The Goulan, which has been renamed Xiaoyu Theater today, is very lively. There are people everywhere. It can be described as a sea of ​​people. Because it is the first time this kind of business model of buying tickets to enter, the scene is a bit chaotic. Fortunately, there is a red knife The staff in the conference will help, and the general order is fairly orderly.

The original hook bar has undergone a simple and novel modification. The stage is three or four times larger than the original one, and there are some settings on it that the audience cannot understand. Nine rows, twelve people in each row, this is already the maximum capacity of this fence. The first two rows of seats are relatively spacious, and there are low tables in front, on which are placed tea, some dried fruits, and pastries.

At this time, a curtain was hung on the front of the big stage that was originally open, covering the stage tightly. The customers glanced at the stage from time to time, secretly curious and guessing.

The story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has become popular among ordinary people in the capital these days, especially those who like to go to Goulan to have fun. But what exactly is the "A Chinese Ghost Story" drama? Although Jingtian has arranged for many people to publicize it in various ways according to Nie Xiaoyu's instructions these days, if you don't experience this kind of thing once, you still don't have an intuitive concept. Let them have infinite curiosity.

At this time, the old man Sun led a group of people in the backstage to make the final preparations. Everyone was a little nervous, and it was impossible not to be nervous. Everyone has been busy for so many days, and the human, financial and material resources invested in it are not small. Whether it will be successful or not depends on today.

And this is directly related to what kind of life they will live in the future. If they fail today, they will probably return to their original form in the days to come.

As early as three days ago, whether it was in the streets and alleys of Washe, or in the nearby streets, the large-character posters designed by Nie Xiaoyu were posted. The content on it was simple, time, place, praise The content, of course, focuses on introducing what a drama is, but what attracts everyone is the background painting.

I have to say that this pictorial designed by Xiao Yu himself has attracted the attention of everyone who saw the pictorial, and the story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is already well-known, the attractiveness and publicity are surprisingly effective.

People still don't know what drama is even though it is introduced in the pictorial, but they are no strangers to "A Chinese Ghost Story".

That is the most popular story in the Goulan recently. There have been such ghost stories before, but nothing so novel and exciting. And this kind of story in this era of incomparable lack of spirituality and literature is like throwing a big stone into a calm lake, which will inevitably cause waves.

In short, today's first performance was not only full of seats, but because there were too many people, five additional performances were temporarily prepared before the people queuing up to buy tickets were arranged. Of course it is tiring to praise five times in a row, but Old Man Sun and the others are happy! willing!

Although Wang Junlin has secretly planned a few major events recently, he is generally free because he has no official or job position. Today is the first day of the Xiaoyu Theater's performance, so he naturally wants to come and see it. Nie Xiaoyu also wants to personally witness the effect of her labor.

As a somewhat evil voice suddenly sounded, the curtain above the stage was suddenly opened from both sides, and the noisy audience in the audience fell silent for a moment, and then they saw the situation on the stage.

A young man in a green shirt appeared on the stage. He saluted the audience at the beginning and said, "Ning Caichen is a scholar. I'm going to a place called Jinhua. Right now I'm in a place called Jinhua." Unload your luggage and rest at Lanruo Temple..."

Everyone in the venue has heard the story of A Chinese Ghost Story before. After the Ning Caichen in the story came out, they couldn't help but feel a little more anticipation in their hearts. This drama is really interesting, which is more interesting than listening to the story dry too much.

At this time, a terrifying voice suddenly sounded. Ning Caichen turned his head and looked at it, and said to himself: "This Lanruo Temple is very magnificently built, but weeds are everywhere and there is no sign of anyone. It's very smelly. There's a hut over there, and the latch is like new..."

Suddenly a beautiful woman appeared from the side of the stage in a floating posture. Ning Caichen hurriedly saluted and said, "Ning Caichen, may I ask who is the girl?"

The woman said with a smile: "I can't sleep at night, I hope to marry you well." A terrifying woman moaned from behind the stage at the right time.

Ning Caichen was taken aback, and said righteously: "I'm afraid that others will say that a single mistake will cause eternal hatred and moral loss."

The woman smiled and said, "No one will know at night."

Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu sat in a corner and observed the whole audience secretly, and found that the audience showed interested expressions on their faces, and they were watching very seriously and devotedly.

There are no microphones and speakers, so the theater cannot be too large, and the venue needs to be quiet enough to ensure that people in remote corners can hear what is said on the stage. Fortunately, the performance was exciting enough, and the professionalism of these spectators was also good. They would never make a sound when they shouldn't.

Occasionally, someone speaks or makes a sound, disturbing others, and will immediately be stared at and glared at by other people nearby, and become the focus of everyone's attention. In addition, the younger brother of the Red Knife Club next to him will watch the scene, if someone really disturbs , will be thrown out immediately.

Although the performance effect is far from being comparable to that of later generations, from the perspective of people in this era, this is already the most exciting performance. At least it's the first time they've seen the story unfold before their eyes.

In addition, with Nie Xiaoyu's personal guidance, although the preparation time is less than a month, the props are very complete, and there is even a background board behind it. Several large wooden boards are put together, and the wooden board is pasted with Nie Xiaoyu's own painting. 3D three-dimensional painting. From sitting under the stage, it really looks like the real scene. When the painting was erected at the right time, it caused a lot of exclamation, and the impact on the audience was not small.
