Chapter Fifty-Nine: Onlookers Come
Song Guanghui asked for a lion's mouth, and opened his horns to bargain and cut it on the waist pole.
An old man and a young chicken thief, you bargained back and forth for a long time, and in the end, Zhang Jiao was slightly inferior, and spent 12,100 gold yuan to buy two raw materials for the manufacture of Level 2 Waidan.
Although the price was slightly higher than he expected, it was fortunate that the difference was not large.
After paying for the goods, Zhang Jiao no longer delayed time, said goodbye to Song Guanghui, who had a smile on the corner of his mouth after making a big business, and left the Xiongshan market quickly, and hurriedly returned home.
The methods and steps of manufacturing different grades of Wai Dan are also different.
Zhang Jiao followed the production essentials of the second-level outer pill, first soaked the bronze in real mercury, and the other raw materials were also preliminarily processed, and the time was already noon.
After finishing his work, Zhang Jiao went out to eat casually, got on the bus again, and rushed towards the art street in the city center.
The Spring Festival is the most important festival in the first year of the Xia Zong calendar, and there is no one.
According to the ancient practice, from the beginning of the 23rd year of the first lunar month to the end of the Lantern Festival on the 16th day of the new year, everything in the market is closed, and the whole society falls into a state of shutdown, and everyone will stay at home to rest for the New Year.
However, after entering modern times, the pace of people's lives has become faster and faster, and there are more and more things to do, and there is always not enough time.
As a result, although the custom of taking annual leave has not changed, the length has become shorter and shorter, and now from the 30th of the year to the 6th of the first year, the 7 days, most companies, firms, including public institutions, will still have holidays, but the rest of the days are no longer resting.
But even if there are only 7 days of annual leave left, it is a luxury for the theater staff of Haijing Art Street, the more others take a break, the better the business.
got off the bus, trotted all the way to the Xiaoxiao Hall, and Zhang Jiao, who had two classes in the morning, afternoon and evening, ran to the dressing room non-stop and changed into a sequin suit for performance.
I rushed downstairs in one breath and consciously began to dance at the door, tell jokes, and start my work.
At this time, the art street was full of people, and all theaters were doing their best to sell packages for 7 days of annual leave, competing for customers for the Spring Festival.
Although Zhang Jiao is very hard-working, because there are too many various performances around, some large theaters have even invited a whole set of professional dragon and lion dance troupes as foreign aid.
More than 20 people, holding a large golden dragon dozens of meters long, flying up and down, even if he was tired to death, he couldn't attract too much attention.
However, Zhang Jiao is resolute and doesn't care about all this, just doing his own performance over and over again.
But the other young artists in the laughing hall next to him were deflated, their performances became more and more perfunctory, their expressions were no longer vivid, and they became weak when they spoke.
Seeing this, the seniors of the troupe who were in charge of the roadshow outside frowned more and more, stood up and slapped their palms and said, "Everyone use dim sum, use dim sum."
The Spring Festival is the most important schedule in the theater for 1 year, and if the theater is well managed, everyone can have a better way out.
Focus on it, bring out the contagion, and let our potential audience feel the sincerity of your performance..."
As he was talking, the main competitor "Le Yuan" directly opposite the Xiaoxiao Pavilion, the invited gong and drum team suddenly exerted force, and the drum music of "Dong Dong Qiang" rang out in unison, suddenly covering the voice of the seniors of the troupe.
As a last resort, the seniors of the troupe could only keep raising their own volumes, and finally yelled almost hoarsely, but the juniors of the artists around him still couldn't hear what he was talking about.
In the end, the red-faced senior could only give up preaching, turned around and sat back on the triangular stool he had placed next to the theater door, sulking silently.
The manager room with the largest space and the most luxurious decoration in the office area on the 3rd floor of the Xiaoxiao Hall.
Xu Jili, who is also the owner of Xiaoxiao Restaurant, the head of the theater troupe, and the theater manager, is looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the street show promotion that competitors have spent a lot of money on, and his face is full of depression.
This rich second generation, who doesn't look young, has a pile of crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, but his body is still quite strong, and he obviously spends a lot of time in the gym.
Wearing a colorful but unostentatious casual outfit, he looks like an old playboy, looking oily but not greasy.
At this moment, he was not at all aware of his stinginess in the promotion of annual leave, and was only annoyed that there were more audiences gathered at the door of the theater in front of him than in front of the Xiaoxiao Pavilion, so he moved his eyes back to the room without looking at it.
Looking at the two friends in the office who were sitting on the bright green sofa drinking tea, he said indignantly: "Performance is a kind of art.
These guys use the money piled up with copper smell to attract the attention of the audience, and instead of focusing on training better actors and rehearsing more wonderful plays, they are completely on the wrong path.
As influential journalists in Haijing, shouldn't you condemn it? ”
Xu Jili's two friends are husband and wife, and they are both engaged in media work.
The man's name is Liu Minghui, his age is almost the same as Xu Jili, but he is half a head taller, 1.90 meters tall, he looks burly and handsome, and he is the chief reporter of Haijing's largest paper media "Haicheng Evening News".
The woman's name is Zanyang, petite and plump, the same age as her husband, but the maintenance is very good, quite a bit of charm still exists, is the second largest news website in Haijing "Jingdu people", the editor-in-chief of the folk news section.
Therefore, he has been friends with Xu Jili for a long time, familiar with his generous and careful nature, the husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, Liu Minghui said: "Geely, are you a repeater that you turn once a year, and you have to say the same thing again every spring break."
Is it for fear that others will forget your stingy and messy nature? ”
"Yes. Zanyang and her husband sang and said, "If I hadn't seen that you were a 'difficult head' when I was in college, maybe I would have accepted your pursuit at that time." ”
Xu Jili pouted and said, "Say it, say it, be sarcastic and sarcastic about me."
Two guys who graduated from the University of the Arts but forgot their original intentions and only cared about chasing the taste of the public.
Sooner or later, people will realize that the true meaning of the performance is sincerity, not sensationalism, and then I..."
While speaking, he turned his head to look out of the window again, and was surprised to find that at some point in front of his theater, a large number of audiences gathered inside and outside, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
muttered to himself: "The time for the people to comprehend the true meaning of the performance is too fast, so suddenly, people are unprepared." ”
Liu Minghui and Zanyang noticed the strangeness of their friends, and asked, "What are you talking nonsense about?" and gathered curiously.
"Happiness came so suddenly that I was a little caught off guard. Xu Jili looked out the window like iron filings attracted by a magnet, and the flow of people who continued to flow towards the Xiaoxiao Pavilion said emotionally: "This feeling may be the excitement of being understood and recognized by the public." ”
