Qi Yuncheng didn't expect that his publicity would be useful and be used in a small theater, so he was very happy.
Speak subconsciously.
"I hope there will be more and more venues like this. If there are more venues, it means there will be more audiences."
"Hey, it's difficult!"
The theater manager was not in a bad mood today, but he couldn't help but be pessimistic when it came to this matter, and told him directly, "When we opened, the relevant departments exempted a lot of things, and even took the initiative to help with publicity, otherwise it wouldn't be possible.
After all, the first thing to do when opening a small garden is to be able to spare the money."
"Well, I understand, the drum music club was actually pretty much the same at the beginning."
When it comes to money, Qi Yuncheng is obvious to all.
The Drum Club spent money very quickly in the early stages. Even though it seemed like nothing was being lost, the money was spent in the dark. People who are not experts don't know exactly how much money was lost.
It was only because Deyunshe was wealthy and didn't care that the surface seemed unchanged and everything seemed harmonious.
While Deyun Society was like this, other small gardens were even worse. When there were newcomers who did not participate in cross talk, one of the participating actors said that the small gardens they held had to lose millions a year.
One million is not a small amount for people who work hard to make a living from small theaters.
"Forget it, no more words."
The theater manager suddenly smiled and said, "It's about to start. Go watch the show. I've bothered you for so long."
"No problem, I'll go there first."
By the way, Qi Yuncheng returned to the auditorium and the drum music started as soon as he sat down.
At this time, Hou Zhen looked at him and said more.
"The afternoon session is drum music and the evening session is storytelling. Do you want to come and watch it tonight? I like it anyway. If you like us to be together, we can have company. I can do anything with you.
Besides, I also know one or two gentlemen who were invited by Yanjing, so I have to support them."
While listening to Mr. Hou's thoughts and thinking about his wife and children, Qi Yuncheng shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Hou. I'll do it later. I have something to do tonight."
"Okay, just call me when you have time. I have almost nothing to do."
Nodding, Qi Yuncheng and Hou Zhen settled down to enjoy the afternoon drum performance.
This performance included actors from the Tianjin Folk Art Troupe, which was not easy to invite, but even so, the audience did not fill up the auditorium below.
But the drum club can be filled up, which does not mean that the abilities of the old gentlemen are any different, it is just a matter of popularity.
At the same time, I understand better why the manager said that he would only do drum music and storytelling projects, but not the popular cross talk. Who said the cross talk market is too difficult!
The people in Yanjing almost only listen to Deyun, and the people in Tianjin almost only listen to celebrity teahouses and famous cross talk studios. The market has long been divided up. If they continue to engage in involution, they will definitely not be able to do it for long.
It's better to settle for the next best thing and attract other stable audiences, especially since the drum music trend is here, try to attract as many people as possible.
So only doing these two folk arts is the result of their careful consideration.
In this way, the two of them stayed in the small theater all afternoon.
There is no special purpose, the main purpose is to see the atmosphere of the new garden, feel it, and feel fresh.
After listening to the music, the audience began to leave.
Qi Yuncheng took the car back to the hotel and played with his wife and children. They didn't play for too long, and then they had dinner together.
This time it was just their family, and my mother was with me.
After a whole afternoon of senior fellow apprentices, some of them returned to Yanjing, while others continued to stay in Tianjin. They had already gone off to play their own games.
Master and uncle, the same is true.
The old couple each have their own social life or do their own things.
"Can Xixi still order lunch?"
In an almost identical private room, Xixi sat on a high chair holding a menu, looking at her father and asked curiously.
Looking into his daughter's eyes, Qi Yuncheng rubbed her head and said, "I understand that eating can really lead to poverty, but let's order, but we can only order five dishes. Five dishes are enough for the few of us.
Don’t be stupid and order so many.”
"Xixi knows."
After agreeing, the little girl took the huge menu and continued to order. She ordered each item and recorded the number. When she counted to five, she stopped ordering.
Then I look forward to the dishes I ordered being served.
While waiting for the food.
Song's mother chatted with her daughter and son-in-law about some topics, naturally talking about their careers. After all, she knew that Yuncheng was recording a variety show, while her daughter was basically idle.
Some dramas came over but I didn’t take them.
But it didn't matter whether he picked up or not. Even if he didn't pick up, Qi Yuncheng knew that it wouldn't affect his wife's anger, so he let her play at home every day.
Wait until the time comes and pick it up.
Anyway, with him as my husband watching, nothing will go wrong.
For this reason, both Fan Ruoruo and Su Tan'er will appear in front of the audience.
It is absolutely impossible to hide the beauty and acting skills of my daughter-in-law.
"Hubby, where can we play and eat in the evening? Do you want me to save some space?" Suddenly Song Yi raised her eyebrows and looked at her husband energetically.
Qi Yuncheng clicked his tongue and looked over, "You haven't even eaten dinner yet, and you want to have a late-night snack?"
"Sure, I can keep some belly this way."
"Look at you, it's not a big deal to pack it after you finish the meal. Sometimes the food you take home is quite delicious."
"Well, you are right, then I will save some space."
Song Yi nodded and started planning where to go to Tianjin. Children are imitative. Xixi immediately lowered her head and touched her belly and said in a tender voice.
"Then Xixi also save some food for dinner."
As soon as Xixi said this, both Qi Yuncheng and Song's mother laughed. At this moment, they understood why Xixi was greedy and imitated others. It didn't take long for the mother to finish speaking.
"Come on, Jingjing, sit here."
Mother Song was afraid that her grandson would learn the same thing, so she quickly changed her grandson's seat and asked him to sit next to her instead of his mother.
It was this move that made Song Yi speechless, but it was quite funny to see Xixi imitating him. She was such an eccentric girl.
But after a while the food is served.
The mother and daughter were happy.
At lunchtime, there are other people who can’t let go, but in the evening, it’s just a family, so there’s no such thing as letting go. You can eat whatever you want, and Xixi also ordered a lot of delicious dishes.
But when Qi Yuncheng looked at the price, he realized it was at least a thousand.
"Yes, my daughter, no matter how much she eats, it's not too much."
With a sigh, Qi Yuncheng stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the food for his little girl, while Jing Jing let his grandmother pick up the food. The wife couldn't take care of it herself, so why did she pick it up for the child? It was purely because she had time.
In this way, we had a very happy meal in the evening. After finishing the meal, several members of the family walked around the roadside in Tianjin to eat.
With them, Qi Yuncheng felt so happy just walking in the night.
Especially the little hands in her hands are soft and very cute.
"dad!!"
The little girl holding his hand raised her head and spoke while walking.
"What's wrong?"
"Let's go to the amusement park. My brother wants to go to the amusement park too!!"
"??"
Jingjing suddenly raised his little head and looked at his sister with a look of disbelief. He didn't say anything at all, so he immediately defended himself.
"I never said that! Jingjing never said that."
The elder sister didn't care, she raised her head and put it on her father's lap and started acting like a baby, "Dad, go! Daddy, go! Xixi wants to go!"
His legs were entangled, making it impossible for Qi Yuncheng to take another step and glanced at the others.
The expressions of Song's mother and daughter-in-law were helpless, and the latter slowly said, "Why don't you go to the children's playground? There should be one nearby to let them play, so they can live in peace if they get tired."
"Okay! After walking for a while, I'm probably tired."
In the evening, a family took their two children to find a place to play nearby.
It’s also easy to find. Nowadays, all information is available on mobile phones, and there is a dedicated children’s playground.
After entering, there were not so many children as usual, noisy, and parents and children were running around everywhere.
As for the play facilities, they are not as large as an amusement park, they are just small areas for children to play.
Slides, ball pools, small castles, mazes, simulated game facilities, trampolines, etc.
"How come children are so happy now? There are all these places to play. When I was a kid, I could only play on a swing and I couldn't believe how happy I was."
Looking at the weird and varied places to play, Song Yi was filled with envy.
I wish I could become a child again.
"Then you can play with Xixi, and mom will play with Jingjing."
"And you?"
"Me?" Qi Yuncheng laughed in amusement, "I'll just rest and let me play with these messy things. It takes a lot of energy. I can just watch from the side."
"Well, let's go, Xixi, let's go play."
"good!"
After agreeing, Dangma rushed off to play with Xixi.
The first place we went to was the ball pool. As soon as we entered and walked a few steps, the little girl fell down, really hard.
But the ball pool is just like that, it’s okay if it falls.
Jingjing was taken by her grandma to ride on the slide. The slide was quite long, and when it suddenly slid down, it landed in the ball pool. It was especially fun for children.
And Qi Yuncheng was indeed idle, not because he didn't want to play with the children, but because he really didn't want to move, and he was still thinking about the small theater in the afternoon.
My real wish is that the folk art trend will take off and more and more small gardens will be opened.
Although it is very difficult, you have to take steps. As long as you take steps and you are still young, maybe one day.
Especially the small theater he went to today made him feel very emotional. Sixty percent of the audience may be enough to support the operation of the theater, but the attendance rate is actually not high.
This made him understand that Beijing Exhibition and large-scale performances may be just for making money.
Real publicity relies on small theaters or small screens.
In particular, the small screen is the channel that brings information to the general public. Nowadays, many more people watch TV than watch movies or the Internet.
Why Yue Yunpeng became popular so quickly is because he participated in the Spring Festival Gala, variety shows, and various other things.
On the contrary, Qi Yuncheng is much different.
If you go out on the street and ask some ordinary older people now whether they know Yue Yunpeng or Qi Yuncheng, they will definitely say the former.
So he wanted to find a way to promote some folk arts on TV, but he didn't have any small screen participation. He and his wife had participated in "Happiness Knocks on the Door" before, and chatted with a group of old gentlemen about the Deyun Drum Club at that time.
"Tsk, I didn't want to participate in variety shows before, but now I actually want to participate."
Qi Yuncheng, who was in the children's playground, smiled bitterly. Sure enough, time can change a person's thoughts and ideas.
I didn't want to participate in it before, but now it's so delicious.
But just as I was thinking about it, a soft scolding sound suddenly came over me.
"dad!!"
As soon as he shouted, Qi Yuncheng suddenly looked up and found his little girl standing in the small castle, with her hands on her waist and having a little temper.
His brows were furrowed.
"What's wrong?"
Xixi said angrily: "Why don't dad come over to play? Xixi wants dad to come over and play with Xixi, and Xixi also wants to make dad happy."
"My daughter still has a temper."
Qi Yuncheng's smile was bright, especially when she was angry, she looked exactly like her mother, with her pouted mouth, eyebrows, and bulging waist.
"Okay, I'm coming."
"What do you want to play?"
"Trampoline, Xixi wants to play on the trampoline now."
"Okay, let's go together."
In the following time, Qi Yuncheng temporarily put aside his thoughts and played with his children for about two hours.
Xixi and Jingjing were finally tired from playing and needed to go out to buy them something to drink and replenish their water.
As a result, before we could go out, something special happened on Jingjing's side.
His grandma took him to play games, but he was leaving now.
But there were two little girls about two years old surrounding him.
Apparently just friends.
Qi Yuncheng was very happy. He made friends in such a short time, which was very impressive.
I quickly walked over to see the situation, but I was stunned as soon as I sat down.
"Jingjing, would you like to play with me next time?"
"not good."
Suddenly, a little girl with short hair became unhappy. She stopped, looked at Jingjing and said, "Next time you play with me, let's go play trampoline. Trampoline is the most fun."
"The trampoline isn't fun. Let's go take a ride on the car. Now... do we want to play?"
As he was talking, another little girl with her hair tied up had already reached out to hold Jingjing's hand. She was a child and she definitely didn't have much thoughts and just wanted to play along.
Who is good friends with whom?
But how could a little girl with short hair be happy when she played with him?
"Don't go there to play, there are too many people there, please go there please."
"..."
Two cute little girls are surrounding Jingjing. Even though Jingjing is only over one year old, sometimes she still can't speak clearly.
But he knew it was okay, especially with two people surrounding him.
"Yes, I have to go home. I'll come next time."
He shrunk and walked respectfully behind his father, not because he was shy, but because he couldn't deal with it.
How to do it? Whoever you go with will make the other party unhappy.
Seeing Jingjing coming over, Dang's father tried his best to suppress the joy in his heart and said, "Okay, two children, let's play together next time. After buying some water, we are leaving. See you next time, and say goodbye to Jingjing."
"Bye-Bye!"
He waved respectfully, and the two little girls immediately waved to him, looking a little enthusiastic.
"Jingjing must come and play."
"no problem."
When the father nodded, he held the big hand with the little one and prepared to leave the children's amusement park.
When they reached the door, Song Yi led Xixi over, and she naturally saw the scene just now.
"Jingjing is very popular with the little girls in our family. In fact, it's not just those two, there were quite a few who were willing to play with him just now."
"Really?" Qi Yuncheng lowered his head and glanced at Jingjing, who was holding his hand. "It seems that they all find our children cute."
"That's right." Song Yi complained, "It doesn't matter who gave birth to her."
"Where is Xixi? Has Xixi made any friends?" Qi Yuncheng turned around and asked again.
"No, Xixi doesn't make friends." Xixi, who was being held by her mother, shook her head, "Xixi only plays with Qingqing."
"Who is Qingqing?"
"My friend in kindergarten often gives Xixi delicious food, and I am willing to give her even my own snacks." Song Yi explained.
Qi Yuncheng nodded with interest, "No wonder, my greedy daughter."
