Chapter 460: Grandpas and aunts all have time

Not surprisingly, the performance on Sunday afternoon was an unprecedented success.

The moment the princess ascended the throne, the audience in the audience did not need to wait for the group performers on the stage to shout, they themselves consciously shouted long live in the audience.

Of course, this audience is still the familiar old men and women.

It's just that there are more old fans holding big lantern signs in their hands.

It can be seen that these light signs are customized by this group of old fans. They have characters in various colors, red, yellow, blue, green, purple and white, just like the flashing neon lights in the commercial district.

The only common feature is that the characters are big and bright, and the signs are also big. There will be a flash at the opening and a flash at the end. As long as Feng Ling on the stage takes one more look at a certain light sign, the uncle and aunt holding the light sign will grin from ear to ear with joy.

Posterior roots.

After the performance on Sunday, Feng Ling and the others did not change clothes or take off their makeup for the first time. After drinking some water and resting for half an hour in the lounge, they moved to Theater 2 to queue for seats.

Feng Ling and the others have to queue up every time they change theaters, not because the stage is not the same size, but because the audience seats are different.

In terms of stage, the stages in Theater 3 and Theater 2 are similar, but the auditoriums are different.

Theater No. 3 only has a total of more than 300 seats, and Theater No. 2 has 530 seats. Even if these seats are originally priced at different prices due to different locations, Feng Ling also feels that it is necessary to practice several times in advance to find the best position and angle, so that those seats can

Audiences who can only grab corner seats can have as good a viewing experience as possible.

Thursday's show is in Theater No. 1, and Feng Ling plans to go to the stage of Theater No. 1 in advance to queue up after the performance on Monday.

Theater No. 1 is a tourist attraction in the Fangyuan Theater. Because the theater is not used much at all, newcomers will basically take them to Theater No. 1 to see the world. Look at the Fangyuan Theater, which is the largest and has the best and most luxurious equipment.

What does the theater look like?

Yang Chaoge showed everyone around when Jiang Qi and the others came here on the first day. However, Theater No. 1 at that time had no performances for three months and no performances had been booked in advance recently, so no one was maintaining it. It looked a bit abandoned.

abjection.

Later, Jiang Qi thought about it carefully and felt that the desolation and desolation was probably caused by the lack of lights in Theater No. 1 at that time.

Theater No. 1, which has been really cleaned up, is quite impressive.

Boss Ge Hong gave an order, and all the staff of the Fangyuan Theater got busy, and the Fangyuan Theater was renovated in just one day.

The desolation and desolation are gone, replaced by the grandeur of the grand theater.

The lights are all on, and standing on the stage, even if there is no audience under the stage, there are only staff checking seats, maintaining equipment, and cleaning corners, giving people a different feeling from standing on other small stages.

Jiang Qi stood on the stage and felt it. This feeling was like that even a second ago I was an ordinary ordinary person, but the moment I stood on the stage I was a big star that attracted everyone's attention.

Under the spotlight, nothing shines more brightly than the people on the stage.

Leader Feng, who had never seen this scene before, even sighed when he stood on the stage for the first time and took his place: "If I could play the leading role on this stage, it would be like smoke rising from the graves of my ancestors, and I would die without regrets."

."

Then Feng Qinghua poured cold water on Leader Feng: "Dad, don't think about it. Instead of counting on you, it's better to count on me. Your legs were shaking at the beginning of the performance in Theater No. 3. If you really play the leading role here, then

Don’t let your voice break as soon as you open your mouth.”

In the end, the father and son almost got into a fight on the stage of Theater 1.

Putting aside this little incident on Stage 1, in just a few days, Jiang Qi deeply understood why so many people every year try to squeeze into the entertainment industry even though they know it is difficult to get ahead.

of handsome men and beauties.

Because being a big star is really fun!

In the past few days, Jiang Qi, as a bystander, has witnessed the entire process of the troupe's transformation from obscurity to the spotlight.

On the first day when the troupe first arrived in Shanghai, only the people in the drama department were relatively enthusiastic, and everyone just had a purely cooperative relationship as colleagues.

Jiang Qi is not saying that the staff of Fangyuan Theater are flattering and disdainful. In fact, he thinks that the staff of Fangyuan Theater are quite good.

Due to the lack of funds in the drama department, Yang Chaoge was unable to arrange a hotel with a good environment. The theater troupe could only stay in a small hotel. However, the conditions of the small hotel were good, clean and sanitary, and the owner was also enthusiastic. This shows that Yang Chaoge was not careful when choosing a hotel.

I just found a cheap one and decided to go with it, but it was carefully selected, attentive and responsible.

The actors of the Fangyuan Theater Troupe are also very enthusiastic. Before the performance started, they took the initiative to introduce the situation of the theater to Feng Ling and others, introduced nearby restaurants to eat, and exchanged operas. They were very good colleagues.

But this is just about getting along with colleagues and treating colleagues.

Now, Feng Ling is treated purely as a star, a big star.

The hotel was changed to a well-known hotel next to the theater. At first, Feng Ling and Jiang Qi stayed in single rooms, and the other actors' double rooms were crowded. Later, everyone could stay in single rooms, and Feng Ling and Jiang Qi were upgraded to luxury suites.

.

Is the hotel breakfast not to your liking?

It doesn't matter, Manager Yang will personally select a variety of breakfasts for you and deliver them to your door.

The lunch box is not delicious?

It doesn't matter, Ge Hong contacted a well-known restaurant to open a small stove and customize a luxurious lunch box.

The lounge is too small. What should I do if a bunch of staff squeeze in to chase stars as soon as the show is over?

Change it, change it to a bigger one, change it to the biggest one!

To chase stars, you have to queue up, make reservations, and have quotas.

The tickets were sold out and everyone wanted to watch "The Princess". When it came time for the show, a group of staff crowded near the door. Manager Zhu could only occupy a seat in the middle by the door. What should I do?

There's nothing we can do about it. Unless Ge Hong comes here, no manager will be able to help. There are only so many places, first come first served, and if you squeeze in, you can always squeeze in.

When everyone sees Feng Ling, they don't call him Little Bailing anymore, they just call him Boss Feng.

At this time, someone may ask, with such good treatment, can Fangyuan Theater make money?

The cost for Feng Ling and others to stay in a hotel for just one day must be an astronomical figure!

The answer is: yes!

why?

Because tickets for Thursday night are sold out.

Sold! Out of stock!

You know, tickets for Thursday night have risen to a very amazing price.

The cheapest low-price ticket is 390 yuan each, and the most expensive VIP ticket is 1,600 yuan. There are 2,709 seats in Theater 1. Considering that the viewing experience in some edge locations is really poor, the total number of tickets finally released by Fangyuan Theater

The number of votes was 2667, and the remaining seats were used as employee rewards.

Like Theater No. 1 Daesung, if you really stand at the door to watch the show anymore, the employees will have to stand at the door with binoculars to look at the stage. It is better to give up those seats that really have no viewing experience to internal employees.

No matter what, those seats are better than the garbage seats at the door that are worse than hanging tickets.

2667 tickets were sold out at 5:11pm on Wednesday!

The moment he got the news that the tickets for Thursday night were sold out, Ge Hong jumped up excitedly in the office, grabbed the new poster of "The Princess" on the table and kissed it hard.

As the owner of Fangyuan Theater, Ge Hong is not short of money.

Compared with him, Jiang Qi is just a young man doing small business.

What does Ge Hong lack?

Lack of face!

He runs a theater. Of course, he has other businesses privately, but his main business is theater.

Fangyuan Theater is a new theater in Shanghai. Even if it is large in scale and well-equipped, it is still a new theater.

When other theater groups come to Shanghai for tours, Fangyuan Theater will definitely not be their first choice.

Most of the time, Fangyuan Theater can only pick up the slack, or rely on the popularity and ability of the department managers to attract people. Previously, it was recognized that the most well-connected person is Manager Zhu. Not only can Manager Zhu invite drama troupes from other places, but he can also occasionally help the drama department to hire actors.

The troupe is considered the backbone of the Fangyuan Theater.

It's a pity that Manager Zhu is the only one in charge, and several managers in other departments are far behind compared to Manager Zhu. Compared with several other well-known theaters in Shanghai, Fangyuan Theater always seems to be a little behind.

The reputation is just a little bit worse, the authority is a little bit worse, and the troupe seems to be a little bit worse as well.

Ge Hong has been waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity for Fangyuan Theater to truly become famous.

Now, this opportunity has come.

Wuhu!

Ge Hong happily circled around the office.

Starting from today, the Fangyuan Theater is also a grand theater with a real reputation and brilliant achievements in Shanghai!

Strength? "The Legend of the Princess" is about strength!

We are still a combination of traditional opera and contemporary trends, which is innovation and the promotion of traditional Chinese culture! We have occupied the commanding heights of morality and strength.

As for the theater troupe of "The Legend of the Princess" being from outside, it theoretically has nothing to do with the Fangyuan Theater...

Ge Hong said that you don’t care. The fact that Fangyuan Theater can invite other theater troupes is its strength. Otherwise, why would Boss Feng only choose our Fangyuan Theater and not other plays?

Ge Hong did not hesitate in the following performances. Theater No. 1 must be Theater No. 1!

A second of hesitation is disrespectful to Boss Feng!

Ge Hong was beaming with joy in the office and frantically posted on WeChat Moments.

Wang Xinghua looked ecstatic in the lounge, pressing the calculator frantically.

"The average ticket price is 762...A total of 2,667 tickets were sold, so the total is...fuck, 2 million! After excluding the cost, oh, forget it, what is the cost compared with 2 million, let's calculate it as 2 million

The troupe wants to share 65%, which is 1.3 million."

"I'm the manager, I get 2%, Feng Ling is the lead, I get 15%, the other actors... don't care. I'm still Feng Ling's agent, I get... This is a Thursday show, and Friday.

, Saturday and Sunday, and the whole next week..."

"Dad, I'm rich!" In the end, Jiang Qi didn't know what number Wang Xinghua calculated, but she came to such a very gratifying conclusion.

"Boss, we've made a fortune!" Wang Xinghua excitedly announced the good news to Jiang Qi, pressing a series of numbers on the calculator, "If the venue is full next time, our amusement park will be able to get this number!

"

Jiang Qi nodded calmly and slowly looked at the calculator: "I know, there are more than 2,000 tickets for Theater No. 1, the final number must be... Damn it, I'm rich!"

Good guys, they have come to the amusement park to make a fortune in the magic city.

Looking at the numbers on the calculator, Jiang Qi really wanted to go to Ge Hong's office and have a chat with Ge Hong. How about we perform another week?

Of course, encores are out of the question.

Playing Theater No. 1 for 10 consecutive days is already an exaggeration. You must know that Fangyuan Theater only used Theater No. 1 17 times last year, which is still a lot of times——

It is said that Ge Hong was very lucky last year. At the end of the year, he hosted several large-scale events, and the theater itself produced another play. In the past few years, the average was only ten times a year.

Even if the population base of the magic city is large, there are many rich people, there are more rich old men and women, and the ground is full of wool, it cannot be so harvested.

Two weeks of acting is almost enough.

Feng Ling and Wang Xinghua not only had "The Legend of the Princess" as a fun drama, but "The Story of Marriage" was also a fun drama, but it was not as popular as "The Legend of the Princess" at the amusement park.

Give Wang Xing some time to read more novels, anime, TV series, and movies, combine the operas of the three worlds, and watch a replacement for The Legend of the Princess, and you can come to the Magic City next year to make extra money.

Anyway, there is not much business in the amusement park during the off-season.

The abacus in Jiang Qi's mind started to fly.

hey-hey.

Hey hey hey hey.

Amid much anticipation, an exciting Thursday night arrived.

All available staff at the Fangyuan Theater are on duty, checking tickets, providing security, guiding the audience into the venue, and distributing binoculars to the audience in the back rows...

Jiang Qi did not let the theater reserve a seat for himself, but he secretly arranged several good seats for Feng Zhiqiu's family and Mr. Pei.

The best seat costs 1,600 yuan a ticket. Jiang Qi gets a 30% discount if he takes the internal discount. Ge Hong decides to give him a 50% discount. Anyway, Jiang Qi doesn’t want many tickets. If Jiang Qi doesn’t buy tickets for others

, Ge Hong will not charge money at all.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Mr. Pei’s ticket money was finally given by Mr. Feng. In the words of Mr. Feng, Mr. Pei has been praising him all his life. Perhaps among the more than 2,700 audience members in the audience

Mr. Pei was the only one who came specifically for him, so he should buy this ticket.

Mr. Pei happily accepted it, and then ordered a small Bailing light sign.

It takes more than an hour to enter the large theater with more than 2,700 seats.

In order to prevent crowds and stampedes, the theater opens ticket check-in channels two and a half hours in advance.

Then everyone will see a strange scene at the entrance of the Fangyuan Theater. A large number of gray-haired old men and women line up in a long line from the inside of the theater to the outside. Many of them are holding large light signs in their hands. Each light

There are little larks on the cards, twinkling and blinking, making people unable to help but stop and look at them and take a couple of photos as soon as they pass by.

Jiang Qi stood at the side of the stage, watching the audience enter one by one, and the empty seats were filled little by little. Basically, there was someone holding a light sign every two or three seats, including internal staff.

There were at least five to six hundred light signs among the more than 2,700 spectators. The scene was really shocking and shocking.

Speaking of lanterns, there is a reason why these adults are so keen on custom-made lanterns.

It's not that adults and adults like lantern signs, but there is a rumor among this group of theater fans - Little Bailing likes lantern signs.

When Feng Ling went to the curtain call in Theater No. 3 and Theater No. 2 before, because the auditorium was not that big, when looking at the audience, he would always unconsciously look at the area with the lights on first.

Usually, the more conspicuous the color and the larger the characters, the more Feng Ling will read it first.

There is no way, if such an eye-catching light sign is on in the auditorium, everyone will subconsciously look at it.

Then the uncles and aunts thought that Little Bailing liked the light signs.

I need to get one so that Little Bailing can remember me.

The lantern signs were not expensive, and the adults who could buy tickets for each event did not need to pay for a lantern sign, so the auditorium was soon filled with all kinds of lantern signs.

The shops that made custom light signs were all confused, wondering why a little star named Xiao Bailing appeared out of nowhere recently and why there were so many orders recently.

At 6:53, the entire Theater 1 was packed.

The audience was basically composed of elderly people, with very few young people. Jiang Qi stood on the side of the stage and took a moment to introduce himself. He felt that if he were to go on stage now, even just to announce the curtain, his voice might shake.

Sure enough, the real big theater and the small theater are still different.

Jiang Qi even began to worry about whether the final performance on such a big stage would not be very good.

Will the audience in the back row not be able to hear the sound?

When the time comes to actually perform, will the stage seem too empty?

Will today's scene be the Waterloo of "The Princess"?



All worries disappeared the moment the play started.

Regardless of buff or not, Feng Ling is the most dazzling and outstanding protagonist on the stage, as dazzling as her light sign.

.

"Long live my emperor, long live my emperor!"

At the end of "The Legend of the Princess", the audience's cheers of long live flooded the stage like waves, and the applause continued for seven or eight minutes.

During the curtain call, many actors on the stage had red eyes. They opened their eyes wide and let tears well up in their eyes, for fear that the tears would flow down and leave two obvious tear marks on their faces.

The makeup was very thick, and the audience in the front row could definitely see the two tear stains clearly.

If an opera actor thinks about the most memorable scenes in his life when he is dying, he will probably be thinking about the current scene.

Under the spotlight, on the stage, forever immersed in the cheers, praises and applause of the audience.

The most beautiful dreams are nothing more than this.

The applause from the audience gradually subsided.

In the previous performances, Feng Ling would lead the actors on stage to bow to the audience again and then leave the stage.

But at this time, Feng Ling did not move, but smiled and said: "Thank you very much for the audience's support. If you don't mind, you can line up to sign backstage under the guidance of the staff later."

"At that time, we will give each audience a poster. Members of our troupe will sign a message on the poster and give it to everyone. We also hope that everyone can keep this poster at home as a souvenir."

"Because time is limited, it will be too late to take photos. I hope everyone will understand."

"Considering that there are a lot of spectators today, I hope everyone will line up in an orderly manner. Those who need to sign will leave from the right under the guidance of the staff. Those who do not need to sign will leave from the left under the guidance of the staff and work while leaving.

The staff will distribute posters to everyone."

"In order to prevent crowding, we will start queuing up to sign from the first row. Audiences in the back are kindly asked to sit in their seats and wait for a while. Audiences who do not need to sign can now get up and leave from the left."

No one left.

Except for the audience in the first row who stood up happily, lined up neatly, and walked happily to the door on the right, no one in the back of the audience got up, and they all sat safely in their seats.

No one in the last row got up.

At this moment, Jiang Qi seemed to understand the inner thoughts of these uncles and aunts.

What a big deal it is to queue up. What uncles and aunties are best at is queuing up, so they have plenty of time!

It's going to be late, I can't sleep anyway.

It’s okay, as long as Xiao Bailing’s hands don’t hurt, there’s no problem waiting until two o’clock in the morning!
