Chapter 1449 The frenzy of watching dramas in Zhongdu
In order to comply with the people's desire to watch the drama, Zhao Xirui asked the staff of the Women's Department to assist the drama troupe members, and a drama stage of the same scale was also built on the corner of Jiefang Street.

Divided into two performance groups in one night, each group performed twice, expanding from two performances to four performances.

In order to let more people see it, they will also persuade the audience to leave after a performance, and give up their seats to those who haven't seen it, so that more people can enjoy the show. theatre experience.

Even so, the troupe struggled to satisfy the desire of more people to watch the show, and some people were not satisfied with just watching it once.

Restricted by technical conditions and insufficient number of actors, the performance efficiency can no longer be improved, otherwise it will be a huge burden for the actors.

Xiao Cui and other staff of the Women's Department held many meetings and came to only two conclusions. One was to recruit more outstanding actors as soon as possible to strengthen training, and the other was to build more theater performances to disperse the audience, so that people would not have to Crowded people.

And Zhao Xirui further proposed the idea of ​​building a special theater in the future and using the ticket system to replace various means of maintaining security.

But these are for the future.

The current problem is that the performance of the theatre troupe has hit the public's urgent need for new leisure and entertainment projects to meet their physical and mental needs.

As a result, the Central City Guards had to be dispatched to maintain security order, otherwise the performance could not even start.

This sweet trouble is something that everyone did not think of at first.

Even Zhao Xirui didn't expect the drama performance to be so popular, attracting so many people vying to watch it, and some people even went to the theater an hour or two earlier to grab a place to watch the drama.

It is no exaggeration to say that the play "Thirteen Soldiers Returning to Yumen" is really famous.

From May 21st onwards, residents from the surrounding towns and villages of Zhongdu came here because of the fame of this play, and they flocked to Zhongdu City one after another, wanting to see the true colors of this play.

More people came to watch the show.

The drama troupe was under a lot of pressure, and the pressure on the Central City Guards also increased sharply. Because there were not many good places to watch the show, the audience would inevitably get into quarrels because of this kind of thing, which would make the Central City Guards, who were responsible for maintaining order, very embarrassed.

The small merchants and hawkers were happy to close their mouths.

Because their sales have achieved a breakthrough growth with the wonderful performances of the theatre troupe, the income of many night market food vendors has shown a trend of doubling, and no matter how many ingredients they prepare, they can be snapped up by hungry audiences.

After thinking about it, Zhao Xirui, Xiao Cui and others couldn't come up with a good way.

In the end, it was Su Yonglin who came to help and proposed a way to build an event viewing stage around the theater stage.

He took Zhao Xirui to see the rushing car used by the army when they attacked the city. The building-style multi-layered rushing car can accommodate a larger number of spectators in a fixed area, but it is only the height of the floor, and it will not occupy the space. more area.

Su Yonglin suggested that the theatre troupe find professional carpenters to build a theatre stage with an upper and lower structure based on this principle, which can not only accommodate more people, but also let them all sit, saving an hour of back pain and leg cramps. .

Zhao Xirui liked Su Yonglin's suggestion very much and thought it was very meaningful.

Not only can it prevent people from conflicting because of their positions, but it can also control the number of people watching the show to prevent any accidents. It can also more intuitively let the audience who finished watching the show leave and replace them with another group of people to satisfy as many people as possible. desire to watch the show.

After Zhao Xirui brought up this matter at the Women's Ministry meeting, it was unanimously approved by everyone, so she immediately placed an order for the Ministry of Works and asked the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works to design a theater-viewing seating platform that would meet the needs of the theater and be easily disassembled and taken away.

The Ministry of Industry is of course happy to help them.

Not to mention the people of Zhongdu, officials of Zhongdu and members of other departments of the Revival Society also fell in love with this new art form in a very short period of time. But it is difficult to achieve this goal.

The craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry liked the play "Thirteen Soldiers Returning to the Yumen" very much, and now they have the opportunity to help the drama troupe, of course they did their best to help.

With the help of senior technicians from the Ministry of Industry, the theater viewing platform in the form of terraced fields similar to mountain farming was designed by the craftsmen, and the first samples were quickly produced.

In June, when four new plays with a broad mass base, "The White-Haired Girl", "The Rooster Crows in the Midnight", "The Landlord's House Has No Food Surplus", and "The Strong Ding Agui" were put out for performances, the new-style drama watching The stand is also taken out for use.

At the same time, at the suggestion of Su Yonglin, although the performances of the theatre troupe are still free to watch, the audience who want to watch the plays need to go to the resident office of the Women's Department of the Renaissance Society in advance to obtain the seat number tickets for the theater. Only those who have seat number tickets can go there. Watch the show.

Considering the scorching summer, although the performances are basically performed at night, it is recommended that people who have not received a seat number ticket should not come to watch, so as to avoid adverse consequences such as heat stroke.

After the latest regulations were promulgated in the whole city, the office of the Women's Ministry was undoubtedly crowded, and theater fans who had expanded countless times in a short period of time said that they had to get a seat number ticket for the theater even if they broke their head. .

There are four performances a day, and the seat number tickets are issued at 100:[-] in the morning, and they will all be taken away at [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] in the morning. People who come later are all beating their chests and feeling annoyed, as if they have missed the super prize of [-] million yuan Same.

With the opening of four new plays, the form of drama has become more popular.

The stories that were previously only seen in books or listened to by people can now be seen by real people, the complete story, and the emotional performance of the actors. This form of experience is unprecedented and shocking.

More and more people in the central capital are not responding to the public opinion consultation room, and they can't get the seat number and tickets. This kind of news is also continuously passed on to the palace and is known to everyone.

In the streets and alleys of Zhongdu, no matter what day or night, no matter what time is short, no matter what people are doing, you can always hear discussions and praise of theatrical performances in any corner.

People keep sharing their feelings about the theater performances they have watched, and they enjoy communicating with each other.

These things have gradually become a part of the daily life of the people in the Central Capital, and along with this new form of artistic performance becoming widely known, the crimes of the old feudal system and the justice of the revolutionary struggle have also become more intuitive and form a heated discussion among the general public. .

The most intuitive manifestation lies in the actor who plays Huang Shiren, Hu Qiang, a member of the Renaissance.
