Fan Yishan said these words too sharply, as if she directly poked a knife into Ji Munan's heart.

Today is the New Year's performance season and the usual celebration banquet held by Jingyao Grand Theater, as Ji Guangfan's only son, Ji Munan naturally needs to participate in the whole process on such an important occasion. He knew that his old man was quite dissatisfied with Fan Yishan, and he adhered to the wise saying that out of sight is pure, so he thought about how much to converge, don't rush to find it during the New Year, and wander blindly in front of Ji Guangfan with his prospective girlfriend who has not yet caught up.

Facts have proved that Ji Munan's sixth sense is completely correct.

Today in the Ji family, he didn't get a little bit of a good face from the old man in the whole process, and he was extremely aggrieved.

After the end of the New Year's performance season, the overall atmosphere of the celebration banquet at the Jingyao Grand Theater became very tense, and this pressure was invisibly revealed, outsiders could only see that Ji Guangfan was calm and decent at the wine table, but Ji Munan immediately felt that his father was in a very bad mood, and what was brewing between his eyebrows and eyes was a thunderstorm.

Even if Ji Munan thinks with his fingernails, he knows that nine times out of ten it is because of the performance season.

Sure enough, after finishing those business entertainments, Ji Guangfan called Ji Munan to the office alone, and Mei Hanqiu had already waited there in advance, sitting on the leather sofa with a wine glass, her expression was dim.

Ji Guangfan didn't beat around the bush, and he got straight to the point, "Have you seen the performance report of Liyuan Hall?"

Ji Munan knew that he was at a loss, no matter how arrogant he was on weekdays, he couldn't stand up now, so he just avoided Ji Guangfan's gaze and whispered, "I saw the report, Dad, don't be angry." ”

Ji Guangfan laughed angrily at this sentence "Don't be angry", even in front of outsiders, he didn't leave any affection for his children, raised his eyebrows and looked at Ji Munan lightly for a few seconds, and then sneered from between his lips and teeth, "After the ticket is opened, the predetermined ratio has never been able to go up, the attendance rate of the New Year's performance season is neither praise nor depreciation, the work has not stirred up a little splash, and there is not even the heat that should be on Weibo, this year, Liyuantang is managed by you like this, you still have the face to tell me don't be angry"

"There are some special circumstances this year, who would have thought that when it comes, the spring garden will come out with such a hand. Ji Munan took down the Bodhi seed on his wrist and coiled it back and forth in the palm of his hand, in order to relieve the irritability in his heart, "I didn't guess that there was a back hand in the spring garden before, and I was caught off guard by them, don't worry, when the Spring Drama Festival in April is held, I will definitely fight back." ”

Regarding Ji Munan's bold words, Ji Guangfan only sneered back.

"People's spring gardens have just started, you can't compete, and you are still counting on the Spring Theater Festival to turn over and dream"

Ji Munan clenched his teeth and couldn't say anything for a while, but Mei Hanqiu, who was sitting on the side, opened his mouth unhurriedly.

"Xiao Mu, this time Aunt Mei really has to say a few words to you, you also let your father worry too much The New Year's performance season is a trivial matter, victory or defeat in the business field is a common thing, this time I lost the face, and it will be okay to find the field next time, but this performance season involves the shortlisted qualifications of the "Old Dream Project" Liyuan Tang was pressed by the Spring Garden, and the Ji family's face is not good-looking, but it is secondary, it is still the key to let the Spring Garden be shortlisted, and it is difficult for me and your father to do it now. ”

Hearing Mei Hanqiu mention the "Old Dream Project", Ji Guangfan's brows furrowed even deeper.

This so-called "Old Dream Project" is a large-scale project that the Peking Opera Association will launch in the near future, and it is also an attempt to promote traditional culture.

The first stage is to conduct local research on unpopular or frequently lost local operas, and give a considerable degree of support to ensure that the tradition will not be eliminated by the development of the times. The second stage is to select a variety of popular drama genres such as Peking Opera, Kunqu District, Huangmei Opera and so on, and select the groups that can best represent traditional culture to cooperate with the Peking Opera Association to jointly develop the core repertoire of the "Old Dream Project" and carry out performance activities of the theme theater festival.

Ji Guangfan, as a high-level member of the Peking Opera Association, has certainly heard of the meaning of the above.

This is a cooperation between modern famous directors and traditional culture, and the official exposure to Peking Opera troupes is quite large, and the huge investment is unimaginable only by the daily operation of major theater troupes. At that time, many enterprises and investors will come to participate, and even get the opportunity to go international, which is no less effective than a step to the sky.

The most important thing is that this plan does not have too many thresholds for the performance group.

Unlike in the past, when official performances were performed by designated performance groups, those large-scale projects with high exposure rates were beyond the reach of non-governmental organizations. The core of this "Old Dream Project" is to select talents from the bottom, in a word, similar to the ancient inspection system, to screen from the bottom up, so as to open up the fresh blood of the performance industry and give more possibilities to the local theater market.

The use of official groups has its advantages and can also ensure the quality of performances, but to some extent, such monopolies form an invisible threshold that gradually excludes private performance groups and small theaters. In the long run, such "internal designation" has become a heavy shackle, and the performance is too one-sided, and it seems to be high-minded, and it is difficult to attract the enthusiasm of the audience. And those groups and troupe leaders, although they naturally represent the national level and become the conventional authority in everyone's minds, they are also too high-minded and ungrounded.

Of course, the Peking Opera Association is well aware of these obvious problems.

This is also the original intention of the "Old Dream Project".

In order to solve the problem of unfair selection, this time, the major theater troupes and various private theater troupes will be placed on a completely equal position, relying on real skills to fight for performance opportunities. Looking at the performance industry as a whole, such an attempt is quite unbreakable, especially for those unofficial theater groups and private performance groups, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

As one of the organizers, Ji Guangfan saw the stakes from the very beginning, and naturally he was determined to win this opportunity. After hearing the rumors, he planned to let Liyuantang win this opportunity to perform, take advantage of the general trend to rise up, and completely gain popularity across the country.

But all wishful thinking was intercepted by the spring garden.

In other words, the opera troupe that was born out of thin air in the spring garden developed rapidly with lightning speed, and soon became a stumbling block in front of Liyuan Hall.

Seeing that Ji Guangfan and Mei Hanqiu were both cautious, even if Ji Munan was arrogant, he knew that the current situation was not trivial, he put away his hippie smiling attitude, and looked at Ji Guangfan with half raised eyebrows.

"Dad, aren't you planning to let Spring Park participate in the Old Dream Project, isn't that a rush to find us unhappy?"

"Otherwise," Ji Guangfan snorted coldly, "The Spring Garden New Year's performance season is so successful, it seems to have become a phenomenal case in the Peking Opera circle, why stop people from the door"

Ji Munan has always watched Su Yiyang not deal with it, and he can't wait for the troupe he invested in to close tomorrow to solve his hatred, and when he heard that such a good opportunity was full of spring and he would also get a piece of the pie, he was immediately unhappy.

"Dad, are you old and confused, you just said it yourself, once the spring garden develops, it will be more difficult to deal with, and you actually plan to add a fire on top of their dry firewood to help them borrow the east wind, you want to see them rob us of our territory in the Peking Opera circle and regret it."

Ji Guangfan said in his heart that his children are really stupid and cute, and at this juncture, they only want to be willful, and they don't know what it means for several major Peking Opera families to surface, and if the old things of the year are dug up, it will have a great impact on the Ji family, the Jingyao Grand Theater, and even the entire Peking Opera industry.

And now it's nothing more than the calm of the mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building.

Ji Guangfan didn't bother to talk to Ji Munan about these things, just a fart from his son, which was not enough to pay attention to, Mei Hanqiu also hid the worries between his eyebrows well, just picked up the teacup and took a sip quietly, without revealing more emotions.

However, Ji Munan obviously didn't have the consciousness to accept it when he saw it, and soon made up for it on the cusp of the storm, "Dad, Aunt Mei, aren't you both the leaders of the Peking Opera Association, what if you don't give the admission ticket to the Spring Garden, do you have to put on that selfless appearance at this time and make enemies for Liyuan Hall?"

"You are the Peking Opera Association, which is opened by our Ji family, and if you say that you will be disqualified, you will be disqualified Since you are so capable, why did you let people climb up on the shoulders of Liyuantang step by step, now that everything has happened, you have begun to shirk your responsibility, that's how I taught you"

Listening to Ji Munan's words, Ji Guangfan was completely angry, he slapped the table hard, and rebuked loudly, "The qualifications and popularity of the spring garden are enough qualifications, what can I do to cancel their qualifications for the shortlist, you are fascinated by those confidantes, forget it, the rumors have penetrated my ears, I will only be young and ridiculous, but in front of business, can you use your brain a little, don't take it for granted, yes Ji Munan." ”

Ji Munan scolded so much that he didn't dare to open his mouth, and froze in place.

Of course, he knew who his old man's so-called confidante was talking about, but when the words of maintenance came to his mouth, he was swallowed hard, for fear that if he said good things for Fan Yishan, it would make Ji Guangfan even more unhappy, so he had to avoid the importance and say a word lightly.

"Spring is full of gardens and we have the qualifications to be shortlisted, what should we do in Liyuantang, is it possible that we have to compete for a round when we are shortlisted?"
