Chapter 85 Drama(1/2)

Terra calendar 1590.4.19.

Fog Greenwich Observatory.

A dark blue Packard was slowly parked at the entrance of a theater. The dark blue paint of the car body shone charmingly in the sun. The lines of the body were graceful and smooth, extending from the rounded front fender to

The rear of the car is like a graceful curve, complementing the dark blue color scheme.

"Abraham, where are you going today?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, [Hope] was dragging his chin and looking out at the sparsely populated theater door and asked the blond young man in the driver's seat who turned the steering wheel and slowly parked the car.

"Customize a play and find someone to perform it." Xia Xiu parked the car in an empty parking space and replied to Ahabat in a leisurely manner.

"I didn't expect that you were really not in a hurry. We have been playing for several days~" [Hope] continued to speak a little absent-mindedly.

It has been almost 10 days since they were eliminated [hide], and during these 10 days, they were really playing around.

Of course, in addition to playing, [Hope] also noticed that Xia Xiu has been doing some weird things, such as what he now calls customized dramas.

"So you've been writing for the past few days, are you really writing a drama?" [Hope] looked at the blond young man who unbuckled his seat belt and was about to get out of the car with a surprised look.

"Of course, this is a script that I worked hard to write. Originally, I planned to use this script to do something very big, but for some reasons, I plan to write it now." Xia Xiuyang said

Yang held a thick stack of scripts in his hands and smiled at Ahabbate.

"It's a big, big thing, how big is it?" [Hope]'s emerald eyes blinked at the blond young man.

If Abraham can use this quantifier to describe something, then this thing may be really extraordinary.

"It's about half the size of Terra. Originally, in my future plan, I planned to spend five to ten years slowly completing the creation of this script. But now the situation has changed, I can only write it out first. Although

This saves a lot of polishing, but this script can solve a lot of unnecessary troubles, so it's not a big loss." Xia Xiu replied nonchalantly, and then he took a deep look [Hope].

The golden eyes of the blond young man had a luster that was invisible to [Hope], and those deep eyes seemed to be telling something silently.

"What does this script have to do with Agul?" [Hope] also unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car, then got out of the car and followed Xia Xiu, and continued to ask.

"Well, I can't say that it doesn't matter at all. If I insist that it does, then she is a consumable for this script." Xia Xiu rubbed his chin and thought for a while before replying.

"Consumables?" [Hope] looked at Xia Xiu with a puzzled expression.

"You'll know when the time comes." The blond young man raised the corners of his mouth and showed that familiar Riddler smile to [Hope].

After saying these words, Xia Xiu no longer communicated too much about the "script" with Ahabat. He walked straight into the theater entrance, leaving behind people who were once again filled with question marks and curiosity.

of [hope].

"What~" [Hope] frowned, her small nose wrinkled slightly, her thin lips pursed tightly, and her little face bulged with dissatisfaction like a meat bun.

However, her dissatisfaction did not last long. When she found that the blond young man was getting further and further away from her, she quickly floated her legs to keep up with him.

"Wait for me, why are you running so fast?" [Hope] floated behind Xia Xiu, poked his head left and right at his back like an eerie one, and then floated around his body in front of him.

He said dissatisfied with it.

Boom——

"You are in a daze by yourself. Keep up with it. After this matter is finished, we will go to catch [Desire]." Xia Xiu was not used to [Hope], and he just hit the other person's smooth and tender face without thinking.

on his forehead, and then motioned to follow him honestly.

"Hey~, I told you not to flick my forehead." After the purple-haired girl muttered a few words, she followed him obediently.

Greenwich Playhouse.

The theater is located in the center of Greenwich. It is a small historical theater that was once a cinema and is now a multi-functional performance venue with a large number of theatrical performances and performance events every year.

In an organizer's office in the theater, Austin Zachary, the head of the White Swan Theater Company, was holding a cup of steaming hot coffee in his hand. Feeling the warmth from his palm, he lowered his head and sipped slowly.

After taking a sip, the freshly brewed coffee was rich in taste, with a touch of bitterness and aroma, exuding a refreshing aroma.

Then he felt a warm current coming from his throat, making him feel a pleasant feeling, as if time had slowed down at this moment. He sighed softly, feeling as if he was being brought into the world by this cup of hot coffee.

A wonderful world.

"Mr. Austin, what do you think of the proposal I just made?"

A slightly philistine voice called Austin back from his enjoyment. He sighed slowly, put down the porcelain cup in his hand, and looked at the fat man sitting on the sofa directly opposite him.

At this time, in order to show his collection to himself, he was using a cigar cutter to cut off the film on the top of the cigar, exposing the leaves inside.

Austin's eyes were on the cigar in the fat man's hand. It was a cigar about 15 centimeters long and 1.5 centimeters thick. It had a dark brown mellow appearance. Its surface was smooth and delicate, with a uniform oily sheen.

Above, the Knight's iconic black, gold and white patterns are clearly visible, further highlighting its unique identity and quality.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Castro Cavalier Cigar..., this fat man is really rich. Austin muttered secretly in his heart.

Each cigar in the opponent's hand is sold for more than 100 central coins. According to the average price level, 100 central coins can probably provide a person with three meals for about 2 weeks in Fog City, and now these 2 weeks of living expenses

But it was just a cigarette in the other person's hand. For Austin, who was living in a tight situation, it was an extremely luxurious thing.

Olu Alakia held the cigar in his hand, feeling its delicate texture. After gently cutting off the tobacco leaves at the top of the cigar, he took out a gold-plated lighter and lit it. When the tip of the cigar began to smoke,

Then, he took a deep breath, and the taste instantly filled his mouth.

The taste of Castro Cavalier cigars is very rich and complex, containing the flavors of wood, earth, oak and vanilla. As he smokes, the aroma of the cigar gradually spreads and permeates the surrounding air, making people feel

Feel a unique aroma and atmosphere.

Oulu took a few puffs of his cigar, then leaned on the chair, looked at the plainly dressed Austin in front of him and said:

"I know your White Swan Theater Troupe is having a hard time right now. Many small theater troupes are living in the same financial constraints as you. Now the audience attendance rate of small theater troupes is less than 25%, and some are even lower."

Oulu looked at Austin, who was clenching his coffee cup, took a deep breath of cigar again, and said to him:

"Now times have changed. What young people like are those movies and TV series. Things like drama have withdrawn from the mainstream. Well, or it has become mainstream in another sense. Now its artistic value is far greater than commercial

Value, but Austin, you have to understand that art that is popular but not popular will soon become a thing of the past."

Oulu swallowed the cigar in his hand as he spoke. He knew that the ambitious middle-aged man in front of him looked down upon him, thinking that he was too vulgar and did not understand art. He had faced this kind of gaze more than once.

In fact, he used to be like these people, clinging to what he insisted on in the past. It was not until he was run over by the wheels of time that he suddenly realized that no one saw his persistence.

"You said someone paid a huge sum of money to buy the entire theater. How is this possible?" Austin put down the coffee in his hand and brought the topic back to the original topic.

"Although this kind of thing is rare, it is not impossible. The other party's ability to rent a theater from the Wudu government proves that he is not only rich, but also powerful. And this mysterious rich man rented this theater just for people to perform.

It's just a script he wrote."

Oulu's slightly bloated fingers tapped his thigh, and he said seriously to Austin:

"As long as we perform according to the script he gave us, we can get an investment of 500,000 yuan. Even after sharing, you can get more than 40,000 yuan."

Five hundred thousand······

Austin looked at Oulu in disbelief. With the other party's affirmative nod, he slowly lowered his head. His breathing became a little heavier unknowingly. He suppressed his restless heart.

Asked Oulu:

"Why me?"

There are many performers in the theater who are better than him. He is not irreplaceable. Moreover, he has always adhered to one principle since he started working in the theater: never perform bad dramas.

"I'm also very curious about this matter. After this mysterious rich man booked the theater, he also appointed six performers with different styles of painting." Oulu replied with an expression that I didn't know either.

"Can you please reveal the other five actors?" Austin's eyes flickered, and then he asked.

"The other party didn't ask for confidentiality, so it doesn't matter if I tell you."

Oulu looked at the curious Austin and slowly said:

"The first is a famous comedian: Montgomery; the second is a famous tragedian: Smedley; the third is a famous action actor: Robert; the fourth is a famous mime.

: Elliot Parker; the fifth is a frequent horror movie star: Elena."

When he heard these five names, Austin was stunned. These five could be said to be the top group in their respective circles. It was difficult for him to find the same commonality as them in himself. Well, the commonality was that they were actors.

It definitely doesn't count.

"Has the script arrived?"

Austin asked again. It was impossible for him not to be moved by the 40,000 yuan, but he still resisted his inner impulse. He planned to make a decision after reading the script in the opponent's hand.

"Not yet, the script is still in the hands of the funder. The script was written by the funder himself. We are also waiting for the funder to send the script."

"There's no script yet..." Austin whispered to himself in disappointment.

The absence of a script means that he cannot make a decision immediately, and the temptation of 40,000 yuan will continue to torture himself during this free period.

Dong dong dong——

"Mr. Alakia, someone is looking for you."

The female secretary's voice came from outside the door.

"Who?"

"The registration shows it is a Mr. Abraham."

Clang——

When Austin heard the name Abraham, he saw the fat Olu Alakia jumping up quickly in front of him.
