89 Theatre Festival
"Alas!" The devil let out a long sigh, and looked out the window to see the near-overflowing stream of people below—the overflowing gold coins, according to her words.
However, with so many gold coins rolling in front of her, she had to give up the opportunity to make gold coins.
The building next to this square is an investment bought by Luo Yi with a lot of money, and it is nothing else, that is, this house can see the square from the window, which is equivalent to a box, and this kind of room is indeed used as a box at some times in history, when the death penalty was executed.
Looking at the beheading, this is the common hobby of the ignorant and numb Ah Q in the late Qing Dynasty and the noble and dashing Parisian citizens penned by Alexandre Dumas, d'Artagnan once calculated with great interest how much return it would bring to his investment if he cut off his head a few times a year, and then bought the house, and then frantically added two more floors to it, so that the appearance of the house was close to a tower.
Although it is an exaggeration to add two floors, Luo Yi thinks that the risk is not great, because the two floors are mainly used as an observation deck, and there will be no heavy furniture, and there will not be too many people on it—people who will spend money to find a good place will definitely prefer to spend a little more money than to squeeze in with others.
She didn't want to make the same mistake that the designer of a library in the United States had made: the poor building was sinking without calculating the weight of the books......
But she didn't make this mistake, but she made another mistake - she didn't expect so many people to come!
So she had no choice but to give up the rental plan and requisition the house: the ground floor was used for the actors and behind-the-scenes personnel to rest and stack props, the second floor was changed to an emergency center and emergency personnel standby, the third floor was set up as a temporary emergency command center, and the fourth floor was the location of the lookouts.
According to the plan she had discussed with the people yesterday, the "volunteers" who were urgently recruited used ropes to divide the whole square into several squares, leaving emergency passages between the squares for the use of the inspectors, and all the people who wanted to watch the play lined up, and when one square was full, another square was put in.
The consolation of those who did not make it to the grid at the end of the day was that there would be an extra performance tomorrow, and that the bishop would bless them by inviting them to go shopping at the makeshift stalls first.
Naturally, there were some disputes and a brawl in the process, but there was no danger under the suppression of the guards.
In the sound of drums and trumpets, the curtain slowly opened.
If there are people who are proficient in oriental music, they may be able to hear that the performance is nothing else, but the sun's hymn of worship in the onion religion - so Luo Yi simply added a piece of Dongfang red played by bronze chimes to it.
John, the knight of the miracle drama (whose name has been changed to a more localized), just stepped on the drums of Dongfang Hong and the Song of Worship on the Onion Sect of Jueyang, played by bronze chimes, and rode – or rather, hung a horse.
Luo Yi was neither extravagant nor bold enough to put a real horse on the stage, the actor's "horse" was actually a horse frame hanging on his body, but the audience didn't notice the knight at first.
Their attention is on the "snowflakes" that are fluttering on the stage.
That is actually some shredded paper, on both sides of the stage set up a "seven round fan", this is the Han Dynasty emperor's summer retreat of the cool hall of the air supply device, and the incense burner is the same as the invention of the skillful Ding slow, seven fan blades can be rotated by one person to supply air.
Two seven-wheeled fans blow the wind against each other, creating a scene of snowflakes flying.
This was the first special effect of the day.
The knight walked to the center of the stage and began to recite the opening words, which were nothing more than his name, family background, and his special love to drink "Brad brand mead, Brad brand mead, drink it is good, it is good, it is good, it is good......"
As a devil in the 21st century, if you don't stuff product placement into the drama you fund, you're sorry!
After a long time for the commercial, a kid takes the stage, dressed as a villager, and tells the knight that their princess has been captured by Ultraman the Giant, and that he has robbed the princess of her family's precious full set of Jacob's porcelain plates, which are more valuable than gold and silver, and that Ultraman has made it winter all year round, so that he can hide the precious porcelain that is whiter than snowflakes and silver......
The knight swears to the gods that he will defeat Ultraman and rescue the princess.
This is an extremely old-fashioned plot, from the earliest epic of mankind, Gilgamesh to George Lucas's Star Wars, it has been used for thousands of years, from Lianghe to the United States, everyone has copied it, proving that this kind of plot will not be unadaptable, and Luo Yi will copy it honestly and unceremoniously!
After the knight had taken the oath, he stepped down from the stage, and the curtain began to change the set.
However, the audience did not have to worry about running out of business, as the cart vendor was already pushing the cart along the emergency passage to sell mead...... There were also seven or eight teenagers dressed as maidens on stage, singing and dancing to promote Brad brand mead.
Think there is no insertion with product placement? How naïve! There is no State Administration of Radio, Film and Television in this world, and she Luo Yi can stuff as much as she likes......
However, the audience's patience is limited, and even more so after a glass of wine, so the curtain is opened again after the song is sung, and the knight has already walked to the castle of Ultraman the Giant.
The knight went on to report the opening remarks, that is, he made another insert advertisement, and after the report, he added that he wanted to defeat Ultraman and save the princess and the princess's family, and the precious Jacob brand porcelain was whiter than snowflakes......
With a fierce drum beat, Ultraman the Giant came on stage with smoke all over his body, and it looked really terrifying, and many people screamed in fright.
Ultraman said that it doesn't matter if the princess returns it to the knight, those precious Jacob brand porcelain whiter than snowflakes will never be returned!
The Knight and the Giant Ultraman just disagreed on the stage and fought a lot.
This kind of acting brawl is actually not enough to watch in this world, and the intensity is not enough to talk about the fight for seats before the opening...... However, the professional is not enough to make up for the special effects! Seeing that Ultraman was invincible, he suddenly waved his hand, "Cerberus comes out!" ”
A ring of fire appeared on the ground, and a vicious big black dog jumped out of it and bit the knight's calf in one bite!
The audience exclaimed together, because the danger of a dog in this year is better than that of 100,000 traversers, and if nothing else, one of the 100,000 traversers may not have rabies virus on his body......
Ultraman took the opportunity to jump up and knock the knight down, stuffed it into a box with a red skull painted on it, and took out four sharp "Karaman-made" swords, and stabbed them into the box one by one, causing the audience to exclaim one after another.
Then Ultraman celebrated with a bang, drank "from the north" spirits, and got drunk.
When the princess, bound in chains, saw that Ultraman was asleep, she sang a lament and prayed for the unfortunate knight.
The laments grew louder and louder, as the choir behind the scenes sang in harmony.
Amid the lamentations and prayers, a rainbow shone on the princess who bowed her head and wept.
The princess looked up in disbelief, she stretched out her hand, and a dove fell from the sky, fluttering its wings and landing on her hand, cooing.
"Are you 'his' messenger?" The princess exclaimed, "He, Ecclesiastes is called Almighty, the Maccabees are called Creator, Ephesians is called Free, Baruch is called Great, Psalms is called Wisdom and Truth, John is called Light, Kings is called God, Exodus is called Lord, Leviticus is called Holy, Ezlah is called Just, Genesis is called Emperor, and men are called Father...... Is it? ”
The dove was still cooing, and the princess looked at it sadly, and suddenly raised her head, and exclaimed, "I know the way, I know the way, and it is the one whom Solomon called merciful, and this is the name that is most deserved!" Have mercy on us, as we have mercy on others! ”
As soon as the princess raised her hand, the dove flew away, and the chains were loosened.
She walked over to the box, reached out and touched it, and pulled out her sword.
The four panels of the box fell, and the audience cheered when they saw that it was empty.
Behind the scenes, the choir sang a song of praise, and in the midst of it, a flock of pigeons flew down together, and in the middle of the flock, the knight slowly descended from the top of the stage with a tightrope.
Ultraman the Giant awakens at this time, and he summons Cerberus again, but the castle is already filled with spirits, his spell fails, and the knight defeats him easily.
The seven-wheeled fan was blowing again, this time with colored paper, symbolizing the defeat of the giants, the receding of winter and the arrival of spring, and the villagers came together on stage to dance around the princess, who declared that she would entertain the knight who had saved her by inviting him to eat "Brad brand dumplings and noodles" served in porcelain, and the knight was not idle, holding high the porcelain he had taken out under the floor, and began to praise how beautiful and precious the plates and cups that had been snatched by the giants were......
