On the bus heading to the Magic City, the members of the troupe were as cheerful as primary school students participating in their first spring outing. They laughed and laughed along the way and took pictures of any novel billboards they saw outside the bus window.

Jiang Qi also took many photos.

The photos he took were all of his own billboards.

The highways around Xuncheng, especially the intersections, are full of Xuecun billboards. Everyone knows the quality of the billboards at the highway entrances. Whether it is an LED electronic display or an unpretentious large banner, the pictures are all

Rough.

It mainly depends on the characters, the bigger the better.

The speed of the car on the highway is so fast that the characters are too small to be read clearly.

This time the troupe went to the Magic City to perform, and the amusement park couldn't just show up. "The Legend of the Princess" is a big play, and the entire singing process takes nearly two hours. All members of the theater have to go on stage to perform. The number of props and costumes required

One can imagine.

Coupled with various musical instruments, the bus is too small to fit them.

Whether it is costumes, props or the musical instruments of the accompanists, they are all the darlings of the theater members. You have to be careful when packing your luggage and putting it in the small space under the bus. Naturally, it is impossible to mail it to the Magic City.

.

The actors in the troupe are basically the same as Leader Feng. They have been working outside for many years. Regardless of how good they sing, at least they have rich acting experience, otherwise Feng Ling and Wang Xinghua would not be able to like them.

.

Many of these actors bring their own costumes and props to work, not to mention the instruments of the accompanists, which are all their own.

The clothes that can be brought in by the actors themselves are naturally good clothes. They are not as good as Feng Ling's Su embroidery with beads, gold pieces, and silver pieces, but they are still better than the costumes that can be bought in the market.

"The Legend of the Princess" is the only major play in the troupe where all members can go on stage and everyone has lyrics and singing. And because the script of the play was written by Wang Xinghua, Wang Xinghua could directly change any inappropriate parts, so "The Story of the Princess"

The costumes are basically the best among this group of actors.

In order to prevent the troupe actors' treasures from being piled together and crushing any of them, Jiang Qi specially rented a 53-seat car.

Super large capacity, great value for enjoyment.

The closer they get to the Magic City, the more excited everyone becomes.

Leader Feng is prone to motion sickness. Sitting in the front row holding a small bag, he would ask the driver from time to time: "Master, how long does it take to arrive?"

The driver also had a good temper and took the trouble to answer the question five or six times, but the answers were almost the same.

"Come on, come on, it'll take a few hours."

As for how long an hour was, Leader Feng didn't know, and he wasn't interested either. He simply wanted to ask, and at the same time, he held on to the small bag tighter and tighter.

"Boss." Feng Ling, who was sitting in the last row, ran to the third row at some point and reached out to poke Jiang Qi, who was already dozing off in the second row. "We have so many props and costumes. We should keep them safely in the hotel."

?"

Jiang Qi yawned, rubbed his eyes, and put down his phone: "Don't put it in the hotel, let's put it in the theater. We'll go to the theater later. Yang Chaoge specially prepared a prop room for us. It's empty and only contains our costumes and props.

"

"That's good." Feng Ling was reassured and looked forward to it, "We'll see the Fangyuan Theater soon. Xinghua said that the Fangyuan Theater is a newly opened theater with very good decoration, new facilities, and a big stage.

I really want to see you soon."

Jiang Qi smiled and said: "Have you not seen the photos on the Internet? The stage is indeed big, and the small theater Yang Chaoge arranged for me is not small at all. I have inquired, and the small theater of Fangyuan Theater is only seventy or eighty.

Seats, the theater you perform in has more than 300 seats, it is a very good theater."

"That's right, and the tickets are selling well. 71% of the tickets have been sold. I have calculated that the Fangyuan Theater has invited foreign theater troupes to perform in recent years, and the average attendance rate for the first performance is only 80%." Wang Xinghua said from

The person from the back row poked his head out and said, "If there are still on-site ticket purchases tomorrow, and we are lucky, we can sell 80% of the tickets, and we will reach the average level."

"Then let's accumulate more and more. No, it's too slow to accumulate too much. We should call it a blockbuster." Wang Xinghua raised a finger, "The second game sold 100%, it sold out! The third game directly changed to the Thousand-person Coliseum, and became famous.

Liwan is now!"

Feng Ling was amused by Wang Xinghua's exaggerated tone and expression. She covered her mouth and laughed until her voice trembled: "Okay, I will work hard to make "The Legend of the Princess" famous."

While talking and laughing, the devil has arrived.

After entering the city, everyone in the car stopped chatting and sat quietly. Jiang Qi knew that the closer they got to the Fangyuan Theater, the more nervous everyone would be. Except for Feng Ling, who had seen the world when he was singing, the rest of them were in the city.

There are very few opportunities to perform on stage in theaters, let alone the Grand Theater in Shanghai.

It's normal to be nervous.

It doesn't matter how nervous you are now, as long as you don't show your nervousness on stage when the time comes.

At this time, the advantage of Wang Xinghua's standard for selecting people was revealed - she selected people who were not happy and had good psychological qualities.

Crossing the streets with tall buildings, Jiang Qi found that the location of Fangyuan Theater seemed to be pretty good. It was not far from the CBD, not in the suburbs.

To be able to open a new big theater in a place like this, the owner of Fangyuan Theater is rich enough!

Feng Zhiqiu is quite wealthy if she can open a script killing shop near the Fangyuan Theater.

Yang Chaoge was waiting for Jiang Qi and others in the parking lot.

Yang Chaoge looks the same as her WeChat avatar, but she is more imposing in person. The imposing manner here does not mean domineering, but professional, capable, and professional at first glance. No matter what she says, people will subconsciously be convinced.

There was an acquaintance standing next to Yang Chaoge.

Yang Qing is wearing a ponytail, exuding a youthful atmosphere and smiling broadly.

As soon as the people on the bus got off, Yang Qing seamlessly switched into attentive intern mode.

"Long time no see, Teacher Feng. You have been driving all the way here without motion sickness, right? Are you still feeling well? I have boiled hot water for you in the lounge of the theater. I know that Teacher Feng, you like to drink water soaked in wolfberry, wolfberry, I

Already prepared."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Do you have a lot of luggage? Do you need my help to move it? Let me carry this drum!"

"Hello, Teacher Bailing, I have prepared your favorite black tea for you in the lounge!"

"Manager Wang, long time no see. Wow, this coat you are wearing is a new one. It suits you very well!"

"Hello, Boss Jiang, I didn't expect you to come too."

"Teacher Luo, is your voice feeling better? Don't catch a cold during this period of time."

"Teacher Zhou, you also brought your Gaohu. If your waist is not good, let me move it later. Don't worry, I will be gentle."

"Teacher Liao..."

Yang Qing was like a hard-working little bee, shuttling back and forth among the troupe members, saying hello to everyone, busying herself with luggage, and leading the way.

Yang Chaoge:......

Looking at his niece who wished she could grow eight hands, Yang Chaoge felt that there was no need for him to come to the parking lot to pick people up.

"Boss Jiang." Yang Chaoge smiled and extended his hand to Jiang Qi, "It's really hard to come all the way. I'll take you to the theater later. The theater has prepared a special rehearsal room for you. Now Theater No. 3 happens to be

If it's empty, you can go directly to the theater stage and walk through the show."

"If you have any additional needs, feel free to tell me and I will try my best to accommodate them if I can."

Jiang Qi smiled politely: "Manager Yang is so polite, let's save the props first."

There are not too many costumes and props that need to be stored in the theater storage room, and one person can move them all in one trip.

Yang Chaogehe led everyone to the theater. I don't know if he chose the road intentionally. As soon as he entered the theater gate, Jiang Qi saw the poster of "The Legend of the Princess".

This poster is provided by the amusement park. It is a retro simple hand-painted poster with a small portrait of Princess Feng Ling painted by Wang Xinghua.

In the era of Feng Ling and Wang Xinghua, posters for new plays were all painted like this. The posters needed to have the name of the play and a red corner. With red corners like Feng Ling, theater fans would watch and buy tickets.

They don't care what kind of play Feng Ling sings or what the theme of the play is. As long as it's Feng Ling singing, they will buy a ticket to see it. Therefore, the proportion of the red corner on the poster is very important. The font of the play name can be small, but the name of the red corner

It must be big.

There are very few posters in this form nowadays. Fangyuan Theater probably thought that the posters provided by the amusement park were quite retro and interesting, so they did not change them and used them directly.

"For tomorrow night's performance, I have reserved the middle seat in the first row for you, Boss Jiang." Yang Chaoge said at the right time when passing by the poster.

"The tickets for "The Legend of the Princess" are selling quite well, especially the high-priced tickets. 21 tickets were sold at once at the backend as soon as the tickets were opened. Now the good seats in the first five rows are almost sold out. It seems that "The Legend of the Princess" is in

We also have fans here."

Jiang Qi smiled and nodded, thinking that he did have fans, but they were not fans of the theater troupe, but fans of the script.

It turns out that Feng Zhiqiu’s store has 21 employees.

Great, not 26.

The Fangyuan Theater has a total of 5 floors, and the total area is quite large.

The 9 theaters, from Theater 1 to Theater 9, are arranged according to the size of the theater.

Theater No. 1 is a thousand-seat theater with more than 2,700 seats. The auditorium is elevated in a stepped shape and is divided into upper and lower floors. It is so big that Jiang Qi feels that it is not an exaggeration to say that the audience who bought the back row tickets need to use binoculars to see the stage.

The stage is so big that even those who have been on stage less frequently would probably be scared to the point of weakening their legs just by looking at the huge crowd.

However, Theater No. 1 is rarely used.

As the Fangyuan Theater has difficulty selling tickets, the drama department has never used Theater No. 1. It usually goes to Theater No. 3. When the situation is worse, it goes to Theater No. 5 to perform. Theater No. 5 is a standard small theater with only 100 tickets.

Come and take a seat.
