Chapter 629 The opening of the business is auspicious
On August 20th, Liang Wang Guo Bing returned to Hangzhou Qichen. Lin Jue and Guo Caiwei went to the pier to see each other off. The boat went away, and Guo Kun, who was seeing each other off on the shore, looked heavy and seemed to be worried. Shen Tan stayed, perhaps. Bing thought that leaving Shen Tan in the capital made him look even more contemptuous of Guo Kun. After all, Shen Tan was mature and prudent, and while protecting Guo Kun, he could also help with some advice when things happened.
Before leaving, Guo Bing and the princess specially called Lin Jue and Guo Caiwei to talk alone in the cabin. The princess said that they should love and respect each other, tolerate each other, and have a harmonious family, while Guo Bing and Lin Jue What he said was to ask him to mention Guo Kun more and think more about Guo Kun. At the same time, Guo Bing once again told Lin Jue to transfer out of the Ordinance Department as soon as possible, saying that it was a place of right and wrong, and if he didn't leave early, he would suffer in the future. .
Lin Jue was obedient and noncommittal. Although Lin Jue wanted to leave in his heart, it was impossible to leave at this moment. Even if his opinions were not valued by the two adults, even if the gap between himself and Fang Dunru was getting bigger and bigger. The deeper the situation, the deeper the situation gets, but he cannot stay out of the matter and argue with reason. Lin Jue must do his best, even if it has no effect, he still has to do it.
The development of the matter was a bit strange. Originally, with the vigorous and resolute style of Yan Zhengsheng and Fang Dunru, now that the second new law had been informed to the emperor, they would quickly put into the process of formulating and promulgating it. However, for seven or eight consecutive days, something mysterious happened. The activity has ceased.
Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru rarely came out of the public room, and when they came out, they had serious and tense faces, which made the atmosphere in the entire yamen very tense. According to Liu Xiding, he went to see Mr. Yan because of one thing. , I heard Mr. Fang sighing for a dozen times in a short period of time, seeming to be quite worried. Lin Jue and others were speechless after hearing Liu Xiding's words. This man was so bored that he even counted the sighs of others. How much gossip is this? And after so many days of getting along, Lin Jue has actually become wary of Liu Xiding. This person is full of gossip, spreads gossip, likes to stir up trouble, and is not a person to be friends with. But it is Lin Jue who is full of gossip. He felt like a good window into the entire imperial court. However, what he said from his mouth had to be discounted before he could be believed.
On the other hand, the relationship between the aloof and arrogant Du Weijian and Lin Jue has become more subtle. The two people often have the same views on some things, and they have a sense of tacit understanding.
Because of this sudden stagnation, Lin Jue's Office of Examination and Writing suddenly became the most idle department in the entire yamen. The other offices were still busy because they had to supervise the operation of Changping's new law and had a large number of accounts to classify and calculate. Busy. But in addition to providing some explanations to the issues regarding the new law that were submitted from local governments every day, making some modifications to the feedback information, and further fine-tuning and improving the provisions of the new law, the public office that reviews the text, There was nothing left to do.
For Lin Jue, this is what he wants to see. It's not that he is unwilling to do things, but that there is a kind of hesitation behind this stagnation. This shows that there is a force in the dark that makes the two adults have to slow down and start again. Examine the content of the second new law. This is exactly the result that Lin Jue hopes for. Of course, the reform cannot stagnate, but the methods and methods must not be simple and crude. It must unite the interests of the vast majority of people, move forward step by step, and move forward day by day. This reform is carried out with the spirit of fighting and chewing bones. This is Lin Jue's consistent opinion. This is what Lin Jue concluded from the many reform actions in his mind about the historical process of his space. Conclusion: Those who are eager for quick success will probably not end well.
Because he was free, he gave Lin Jue a lot of private time. Lin Jue went on duty for an hour every morning and then disappeared. After another hour in the afternoon, he disappeared again. Fortunately, the few people in the public room didn't mind too much.
Liu Xiding naturally can't speak, at least in person. Tian Muyuan is an honest person. He is so busy every day that he doesn't know what he is busy with. When he has a little free time, he even serves tea and water for several people in the public room. In short, he is a humble person with a gentle personality.
People, he won't even know what to say.
As for Du Weijian, he still did not change his true nature as a scholar. In his free time, he sat in the public room and read poems and books, chanting and praising him as if there was no one else around, which earned Liu Xiding countless blank looks. He never cared about Lin Jue's coming and going.
When Lin Jue was here, the two of them chatted for a few words, talking about some interesting topics and opinions on poetry and prose. Lin Jue left, and he didn't even owe anyone a body. The two of them were in a state where the friendship between gentlemen was as light as water.
No one bothers anyone.
The reason why Lin Jue frequently leaves early is because the Grand Theater Branch is about to open. Lin Jue needs to go to the site in person to accept and test the stage design, lighting scenery, ventilation, cooling and insulation systems, amplification systems, etc. A branch
The establishment of a theater is not as simple as imagined, and the establishment of a theater in Jiangnan Grand Theater is extremely cumbersome, because to maintain the characteristics and standards is not as simple as just having actors, scripts, and stage pillars. The supporting facilities, skilled operations of relevant personnel, and
Mutual cooperation and internal management all need to be adjusted.
Fortunately, the dozens of people selected from Hangzhou were all carefully selected, and they quickly fell into their roles. Several shopkeepers took the lead in each system, and more than 20 clerks also quickly adapted to their roles.
, figured out the ropes. After some training, he was basically qualified for his duties. This made Lin Jue feel relieved. After all, even if he broke his throat and broke his mouth, he still needed these people to do things. So, what is needed
It's their proficiency and understanding, not their own earnest words.
Rehearsals for the new play are also in full swing. The new play "Red Dust" was drafted several times, which consumed countless brain cells of Xie Yingying, and some of everyone's suggestions and deeds were adopted. The final draft was finally approved by Lin Jue
Approved. The latest draft is definitely a big drama. It tells the story of a pair of sisters who were sold into a brothel and eventually grew up to be courtesans, stunning in the world, but their fates ended very differently. What Lin Jue said was the so-called satanic drama.
There is everything you need in a bloody plot. Sisterhood, two women competing for a husband, betrayal and regret, the process of struggle and success. The confrontation between interests and conscience, the drama of talented people and beautiful women, and the happy ending in which good people will win and bad people will be punished. These
All of which make the whole play more twists and turns and more attractive.
For each scene, Lin Jue communicated with the two leading actors Xie Yingying, Qin Xiaoxiao, and the actors. Qin Xiaoxiao and others who participated in this kind of performance for the first time obviously could not adapt to the need to cooperate with the light slide stage background during the acting process. Lin Jue began
Tell her that at a certain position on the stage, at a certain angle, under a certain beam of light, which pose is the best and will bring about the greatest performance effect, Qin Xiaoxiao is simply in a fog.
Among them, Xie Yingying had to demonstrate for her personally. After three days of painful running-in, when Lin Jue even thought about replacing Zheng Nuanyu, Qin Xiaoxiao suddenly seemed to have an enlightenment and understood the meaning of performing in the light background.
Important points. This made everyone sigh in relief.
The rehearsals lasted for five days and twelve performances. After the last rehearsal, Lin Jue already knew that the semicolon's first performance was destined to be a successful performance.
…
The first day of September is an auspicious day, when everything is suitable and nothing is taboo. The semicolon of Jiangnan Grand Theater located in the prosperous area of the east wing of the inner city will also be officially opened today.
Early in the morning, Lin Jue led everyone to the intersection where the semicolon was located to prepare for the opening.
As the hour approached, Lin Jue led all the staff of the Grand Theater to the spacious porch at the entrance of the theater, wearing brand new clothes. Outside, many people watching the excitement had already gathered around. They pointed at the large group of people on the porch.
The women, who were as slim as butterflies and had pretty faces, were talking. They were extremely envious of Lin Jue, who was standing among the flowers in a purple satin robe, dressed like a nouveau riche.
The entire Grand Theater is also magnificent, with red silk hanging from the top of the third floor, fluttering in the breeze. Large watercolor posters are hung one by one under the second floor window, with colorful portraits painted on them.
, are all stills and portraits of everyone who participated in the show.
The most eye-catching thing is the main poster hanging on the main wall facing the east. The images of Yingying and Qin Xiaoxiao smiling back to back occupy most of the picture. Below are small images of various people.
.On the eye-catching position on the side are the three large characters "The Story of the Red Dust" written in huge colorful pink letters in bold and enlarged letters. On the corresponding side, there is a striking advertising slogan.
"An unparalleled love, a sisterly love and hatred. In the world of mortals, things are complicated. Gratitudes and hatreds, right and wrong. Who is right and who is wrong? Who is right? The premiere of the annual drama "Red Dust" presents you with an endless journey.
The same life experience will bring you endless audio-visual enjoyment."
This non-nutritious advertising slogan was written by Lin Jue. In the past, he used poems or lyrics from plays as advertising slogans. This time, Lin Jue didn't want to go to trouble and simply used those unscrupulous advertisements on the earth.
Lin Jue even planned to use "Shocked! Two sisters actually did such a thing for a man." to promote it, but he couldn't stand it, so he rejected it.
The decoration of the entire Grand Theater embodies a sense of majesty, and the details everywhere reflect the good intentions of the theater owner.
As soon as the hour came, Lin Jue gave the order, and the salute exploded, and the firecrackers went off. The gongs and drums were beating loudly. Lin Jue, Xie Yingying, and Xie Danhong each reached out and grabbed a piece of silk ribbon hanging from the lintel, three, two, one, one after another.
With force, the bright red silk curtain slid down like a waterfall, revealing a huge plaque with gold characters on a black background and a red ribbon wrapped around it. The five characters "Jiangnan Grand Theater" on the plaque shone brightly in the morning sun.
As the unveiling ceremony began, there were waves of applause and cheers. Several lion dance troupes and dragon lantern troupes entered to the beat of drums and began to jump joyfully in front of the theater. Xie Danhong led several women carrying bags full of pastries and candies.
baskets, throwing candies and pastries to the crowd along the perimeter, which immediately triggered bursts of shouting and looting, and the scene was extremely lively.
