Old man Sun has witnessed the resurrection of this Goulan with his own eyes, and he has gradually developed to the present point. He can see gratifying changes almost every day, and all of these are derived from the people in front of him. The means of turning decay into magic .
As long as he comes back, all problems will be solved.
Lack of innovative stories and books? Pressure from local officials
He doesn't have to worry about these anymore.
Under the leadership of old man Sun and Wan Ruoqing, Li Yi watched all the theaters in the city and outside the city that were closer in the morning, and sat down with them to watch a few plays. It is orderly and well-organized, which is completely different from the previous Goulan.
Li Yi didn't have time to go to the other theaters because they were too far away. As for the special performances for martial arts practitioners, they were all far outside the city, so naturally he didn't have the chance to see them today.
Along the way, old man Sun kept introducing him to the development of the theater these days.
The reputation of the Qing'an Mansion Theater has spread far and wide. There are more than 20 theaters, almost including most of the low-level actors living in Qing'an Mansion. Even other states and counties have colleagues who come to join them. However, because of the large number of people, the theater cannot The reason for being able to accommodate them is that now they can only do some chores, as long as they can have a full meal.
Old man Sun continued to talk: "All of them are very grateful to you, and hope that we can bring the theater to other states and counties, where there are countless actors living in poverty..."
In the past, most of these actors worked alone, building a small shed in Washi, or ganging up with a few people. They could only survive on rewards.
Because of their humble status, they can't do other things, and the profession of actors can't make their lives stable. Suddenly, there is such a place where they only have to do their old jobs, and they are paid a lot of wages, and they don't have to sleep in the open. Running around, which actor is not tempted
The success of Qing'an Fu Theater is due to high-quality content and scientific management methods, both of which are difficult or impossible for others to learn. Entering a beautiful new era has almost become the common expectation of actors in nearby states and counties.
As soon as this matter was mentioned, the tired look on Old Man Sun's face disappeared, and his cloudy old eyes were shining.
Several years later, the actors who had cast off their lowly status and were finally able to live under the gaze of thousands of people will never forget the words that the kind old man said when he was dying.
"There is only one life for us, and a man's life should be spent in this way: when he looks back on the past, he will not be ashamed of being vain, nor ashamed of being mean and vulgar, so that when he is dying, he can say , I have dedicated my whole life and all my energy to the greatest cause in the world - to fight for the liberation of all actors!"
The old man is their enlightener and forerunner, who will be remembered by history and become a god in the hearts of generations of actors.
Li Yi nodded, and agreed with Old Man Sun's words: "Our goal is the stars and the sea—the entire Jingguo. One Qing'an Mansion is not enough. These days, I will stay here and help you deal with things here Well, after this place is completely stabilized, some people will continue to develop to neighboring counties, while others will go to Kyoto, which will be our new starting point."
"Kyoto?" Old man Sun nodded after being stunned for a moment, agreeing with Li Yi's decision very much.
Although Qing'an Mansion is prosperous, it still can't be compared with Kyoto, not to mention that it is the capital of Jingguo, which is of great significance. If it can take root in Kyoto, lead the trend, and infiltrate other places, it will naturally become easier. Your lord is indeed a lord, This insight is far beyond what he can compare.
Old man Sun has already decided that he must go in person for the trip to the capital. He has spent half his life wandering around. It doesn't make any difference to him whether he lives in Qing'an Mansion or in the capital. In this case, of course he has to choose the most where he is needed.
"Goo..."
Li Yi and old man Sun had a more detailed discussion on further plans, and Wan Ruoqing would sometimes express his opinions on the sidelines. At a certain moment, the three of them suddenly heard a strange voice at the same time.
Li Yi turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice.
Zeng Zui Mo's pretty face was flushed, she never drank the porridge she cooked herself, and she didn't eat anything in the morning, and walked around with them for more than two hours, she was already tired and hungry.
"Speaking of which, I'm hungry too, let's go eat first." Li Yi broke the embarrassment with one sentence.
"Okay." Zeng Zuimo said immediately.
"It's noon now, and the restaurant is probably very busy. I can't find a seat in a while. It should be faster to cook some simple meals by myself." Wan Ruoqing suggested after thinking about it.
Although Zeng Zuimo was already very hungry, he thought that what she said made sense, so he had to endure a little longer.
"Why don't you just go to my house." Wan Ruoqing and Old Man Sun are both great heroes of the theater and the most important veterans. Li Yi felt that it would be sincere to invite them to dinner at home. What's more, regarding the future development of the theater, It is also more convenient to say at home.
As for Zeng Zuimo, it was repaying her "favor" for the morning porridge.
"Let's go to the restaurant." Hearing this, Zeng Zuimo immediately shook his head and said.
Wan Ruoqing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Why don't you go to my place, it might be more convenient."
"Is it convenient or not? Anyway, there is no one at home, and I will cook when I go back alone." Li Yi waved his hand and said, "That's the decision."
Strangely, the two women did not raise any objections this time.
As for old man Sun, eating is a trivial matter for him, and it doesn't matter where he is. He also wants to talk to Li Yi about the theater's development plan.
I bought two candied gourds on the side of the road for Zeng Zuimo to pad his stomach first. On the way back, he also bought all the vegetables he needed. When the four of them walked into the yard, Zeng Zuimo looked around and only saw the person named Yang Liuqing. The young girl was cleaning in the yard, and there was no one in the house. For some reason, she quietly let go of her heart.
"Uncle, you are back." Yang Liuqing put down the broom, first saluted Li Yi, and then gave a slight signal to Wan Ruoqing and the others.
There are some children who work in the theater, so she naturally knows old man Sun and Wan Ruoqing, and has met that drunk girl a few times, but she hasn't said a few words.
"Put these in the kitchen first, and I'll go change my clothes." Li Yi handed her the things in his hand, then turned to look at Wan Ruoqing and the others and said, "You can feel free, you should be tired after walking all morning, Go inside and rest for a while, I'll come out right away."
We're old friends now, so there's no need to be polite, Wan Ruoqing and Zeng Zuimo are used to him for a long time, but old man Sun seems a little restrained.
"Go in and rest, I'll help in the kitchen." Seeing Yang Liuqing enter the kitchen with vegetables, Wan Ruoqing also followed.
"I'll go too." Zeng Zuimo thought for a while, and immediately followed.
Of course, old man Sun would not join in the excitement. He sat on the stone bench in the yard, looked at the distant sky, and fell into deep thought.
My lord is right, he needs to take a long-term view. Kyoto is a new and most suitable starting point. Their ultimate goal is not Qing'an Mansion or Kyoto, but the entire Jing Kingdom, and even other countries. , is also conceivable...
