Chapter 974： Revitalize the drama market

It didn't take long for an intercepted version of "The Peony Pavilion" to be completed.

Li Fan checked it again and nodded very satisfied.

Looking at the "Peony Pavilion" in front of him, Li Fan suddenly smiled, and he remembered a rather interesting anecdote about the creation of "The Peony Pavilion."

According to legend, in the Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, Jiangxi Linchuan gifted Tang Xianzu, because of Shangshu offended the emperor and officials, was reprimanded to Xu Wenren to add notes to the history.

Tang Xianzu had to travel a long distance to take office in Xu Wen.

When he arrived at Xuwenbin Pucheng, it was almost dusk, and Xiong Min, the magistrate of the county, placed him in the Department of Classical History.

Because of the new arrival, Tang Xianzu was upset and miserable that night, and it was difficult to sleep asleep. After midnight, he was impatient and had a dry throat. He wanted to find some water and wine for a drink, but the gourd had bottomed out.

So, Chuyi went out of the courtyard, and sighed to Hanyue alone.

Suddenly, Tang Xianzu's eyes lit up and he found a well in the corner of the wall with a large stone covered on it. He suddenly felt strange, and hurriedly awakened his family, and worked together to uncover the manhole cover.

I saw the spring of the well as clear as promised, the surface of the spring was like a mirror, and the moon wheel fell in the well, and the weather was unique.

So, Tang Xianzu used a spoon and spooned a scoop of well water, and when he drank it, the spring water was pure and sweet and secreted from the lungs.

Tang Xianzu, who was pleasantly surprised, opened his throat and drank booze.

This spring was as mellow as wine, Tang Xianzu was so drunk, he returned to the house to rest, and immediately entered Mengxiang.

However, there are frequent dreams and emotions at night. The stories in the dreams are unheard of. The legends of the characters in the dreams are vivid, and they fall asleep until noon the next day.

When he woke up, Tang Xianzu was contemplating his dream, and immediately brought in pen, ink, inkstone and paper, narrating the plot of the dream one by one, and carefully storing it.

Six years later, Tang Xianzu resigned and returned to his hometown Yumingtang. After retrieving the writings recorded in that year, after polishing and finishing, it became a shocking work, Linchuan's first dream "The Peony Pavilion".

Such anecdotal legends undoubtedly add a romantic touch to the work "The Peony Pavilion".

Of course, did Tang Xianzu really have such a dream back then? It is impossible to verify it now.

However, we can tentatively think that Tang Xianzu had such a dream back then.

Sending the "Peony Pavilion" document to Rao Qianqian's e-mail, Li Fan turned off the computer, walked out of the room, came downstairs, walked out of the courtyard, and continued to wander around the village.

Well, that’s not right. I continued to care about the progress of the project.

...

August 12.

The official website of the Southern Theater and the official Weibo also released a notice to the outside world: Based on Gu Yong’s work "The Peony Pavilion", the drama "The Peony Pavilion" of the same name will be in the Performing Arts Hall of the Southern Theater at 10 am on August 17th. Please look forward to the premiere!

As soon as this notice from the Southern Theater came out, it didn't surprise everyone, but smiled slightly, "It's finally out."

Obviously, everyone has known for a long time that the Southern Theater will definitely launch a new drama based on Gu Yong's works.

It's just that the preview time is slightly later than everyone expected.

Many netizens discussed before that the Southern Theater would definitely go to Gu Yong to buy a drama work.

No way, as the three major theaters, the Southern Theater will absolutely not allow it. Only the Oriental Theater and the Kyoto Theater will show off.

In that way, the status and face of the Southern Theater will be affected. Not only will it arouse criticism from the outside world, but it will also make other small and medium-sized theaters secretly laugh and gloat.

Therefore, the Southern Theater will definitely launch a new play no less than those two works in a short period of time.

To do this, seeking Gu Yong's help is obviously the most correct choice.

Netizens have long understood everything. Looking at it now, it is in fact true. The trailer of the Southern Theater today confirms the previous speculation of netizens.

Therefore, even though netizens have no surprises, they are in a very good mood.

For one thing, they guessed right about the dynamics of the Southern Theater.

Second, they have a new drama to look forward to.

There was a lot of jubilation on the Internet.

"Haha! The new play of the Southern Theater has finally come out. As expected, it is still the work of Mr. Gu Yong."

"Gu Yong, this is the rhythm to get the drama out to the end!"

"Yeah, this is the third drama work in a short period of time. This guy is sure to be born as a martial artist? I think he is creating drama works now, it is slippery."

"Hey! It's not just a drama, there is also a pure love work "Days with a Stewardess", which is serialized accurately every day. You don't understand the world of genius writers."

"Speaking of this time, "The Peony Pavilion", what kind of work is it? On the trailer of the Southern Theater, I don't know to briefly introduce the content of the plot, bad review!"

"I am also very curious to know. However, it doesn't matter if I don't know now, as long as I know it is Gu Yong's work."

"That's right, as long as it is Gu Yong's work, it must be worth looking forward to. Just look forward to it together."

"The words are so right, but I still hope that "The Peony Pavilion" will no longer be a tragedy. I really don't like tragedies!"

"I guess no one likes tragedy. But who makes Gu Yong's tragedy works so attractive. Everyone still wants to jump into it."

"In short, I hope that this time Uncle Gu Yong can show mercy and come out with a comedy."

"Well, this is okay, so let's pray together."

"..."

Netizens are so enthusiastic about a drama that has not yet officially started, and I have to say that the drama market during this period is very active.

The direct cause of this situation is naturally Gu Yong's three drama works.

But the benefit is the entire drama world.

During this period of time, theaters all over the country have also launched a lot of new dramas, or are preparing to launch new dramas.

Affected by the current drama boom, the results of the new dramas launched by the theaters are much better than before.

Although their new dramas are far inferior in quality to "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" and "Dou E's Injustice".

But fortunately to grab the tickets, the people who saw the two dramas were very few. Most people have never seen those two dramas.

What to do then? In order to survive the addiction of watching dramas, everyone will naturally choose to go to those other theaters and watch other dramas.

As a result, the attendance rate of new dramas in other major theaters has naturally increased.

After watching those new dramas, everyone found that some of them were not bad, although they were not as good as "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" and "Dou E's Injustice", but they are also worth watching.

After watching it, a publicity on the Internet showed that the more people who knew it, the bigger it became, and more and more people entered the theater.

Under this virtuous circle, the market for new dramas launched by other major theaters has slowly risen.

Tracing back to the source, Gu Yong used three drama works, two to be exact, because the third drama "Peony Pavilion" has not yet officially started, and it has revitalized the current drama market.

Countless theater practitioners were filled with emotion.
