Until the end of "The Mulberry Picking Girl", many viewers were still immersed in the shock of gold and silver.

Many people took photos and immediately posted them on WeChat Moments, lamenting that the lives of rich people are so simple and unpretentious.

You can never imagine the happiness of rich people!

Grandparents, I don’t want to work hard anymore!

The result of being too shocking is that when many viewers left the theater, they felt that although the play "The Mulberry Picking Girl" was indeed not very good to watch and was very annoying at the beginning, although it was pretty good at the end, when you think about it carefully, it seemed that it was not that enjoyable. At the beginning It's extremely difficult, but the show should still be good.

As for why it’s good…

The elderly fans are willing to spend so much money to support this drama. There must be something remarkable about this drama, but my appreciation level is not enough to see it.

Excluding the subjective factor that I don't like it very much, if you look at it objectively, this drama should still be okay.

It can only be said that today’s young audiences know how to brainwash themselves.

With the support of Golden and Silver Mulberry Leaves, the reputation of "Mulberry Picking Girl" is not as mixed as Jiang Qi imagined.

It's just that the elderly fan group watched it enthusiastically and called out friends, and the ordinary audience who didn't usually go to the theater were very tired after watching it. Although they didn't like it after watching it, they didn't criticize the show as bad, but they just wouldn't watch it again. Just 2 times.

Without Jiang Qi's knowledge, "The Mulberry Picking Girl" started its weird promotion in an extremely weird way.

This propaganda method can be summed up in one word, which is probably spreading rumors.

Although there are fewer people going to the theater these days, it is not none.

In some areas, there is a very impressive and large number of opera audiences, but these audiences are generally older. Uncles and uncles are all considered young people, and they are basically old men and women.

These old men and women don’t use the Internet much on weekdays.

In addition to reading news and newspapers, everyone receives news by listening to what others say.

There are two types of listening to people, one is to listen to people directly face-to-face, and the other is to listen to voices on WeChat.

The old man is very old, so he is slow to write by hand on his mobile phone, and he cannot input pinyin. Sending messages basically depends on voice. Every time you listen to voice, you have to turn the phone volume to the maximum, so loud that it is deafening.

And I don’t know since when, a mysterious audio message has been circulating on the WeChat of some old men and women.

The sound of this audio is a bit small, so small that even if the volume is turned up to the maximum, the sound is not loud enough.

Many children who are more concerned about the elderly find that their parents are very strange during this period. They don't know what to do in the room every day, holding a mobile phone to their ears as if they are listening to music.

This music is also weird. It doesn't look like a serious song, it seems like a drama, babbling, not long, thirty or forty seconds.

I listen to that thirty-forty-second song every day, every day, so much so that even the children who occasionally go into their parents’ rooms to get things remember the tune and still listen to it.

There are even some juniors who are directly assigned tasks by their elders.

The elders sent me a mysterious audio with no beginning or end and no pictures. I asked them to find the source of this audio. They said it was a play, something sung in vain. I wanted to find the source of this play. When I found it, I sent the complete play. I sent the video to them, and the elders are still waiting to see it.

This is very frustrating for those juniors who are looking for a play. First, they don’t know the name, and second, they don’t know the type of play. There is only a short audio clip, and all the lyrics are babbling.

Forget about the lyrics, the most important thing is that you don’t understand them.

It seems to be sung in classical Chinese.

If it is in vernacular, you can directly translate it into a sentence you know and search it online. Who knows what word this is in classical Chinese?

Looking for the source of this scene, aren't you trying to make things difficult for me, Fat Tiger?

Not only the younger generation are looking for it, but also the old people who love opera after hearing this libretto.

Even without Feng Ling knowing about it, countless people were thinking about her day and night, trying to find out who the legendary Bai Bai was.

Some people are looking for Bai Bai, and some people are looking for Bai Ling.

The performance of "The Mulberry Girl" in the theater was tepid. Feng Ling had the foundation laid by "The Princess", "Meng Lijun" and "The Fairy Match". Naturally, there was no need to worry about selling the theater tickets, but it was impossible to return them. It’s just like the grand occasion when buying tickets for “The Legend of the Princess” before.

According to Wang Xinghua's estimation, according to the current situation, "The Mulberry Picking Girl" can be performed continuously in the amusement park for a month.

There's a chance that tickets for the re-performance won't be sold.

However, although the tickets were not sold well, the merchandise was sold very well. Not to mention the mulberry picking women of various periods played by Feng Ling, their looks are all first-rate and beautiful. The costumes for two of the periods where there were a lot of scenes were custom-made by Feng Ling using her own treasury. A set of costumes costs hundreds of thousands, so it’s hard to say how good they look.

It’s even more beautiful than the fairy-like appearance of the heavenly match.

Even if the audience doesn't like the plot of "The Mulberry Picking Girl", it's a positive thing to buy the same peripherals.

Good looks are the first purchasing power.

Wang Xinghua set the price of the peripheral products relatively low because of the mediocre response of "The Mulberry Picking Girl". Unexpectedly, the sales of the peripheral products of "The Mulberry Picking Girl" were even better than those of "The Princess". Wang Xinghua almost became so angry that she vomited blood. She dreamed about it when she went to bed at night. She dreamed about setting the wrong price for her surroundings and missing out on a lot of commissions.

On March 11, the first report about the premiere of "The Mulberry Picking Girl" was finally released.

The author of this report is reporter Xu who was smoking in front of the theater.

Speaking of reporter Xu, this person is actually Wang Pingxiu’s key target.

Reporter Xu graduated from a prestigious school, and the first article published in a regular newspaper or magazine was about opera. According to Wang Pingxiu's investigation, reporter Xu applied for a job at a professional newspaper after graduation. His master followed news about opera and accumulated a lot of contacts. Reporter Xu has been doing relevant reports with his master. After his master retired, he took over the connections from his master.

Among the journalists, Reporter Xu is the kind of professional reporter who is relatively upright, rarely accepts payment for work, has sharp writing, unique writing style, loves opera, and the articles he writes are highly professional and credible.

The only drawback is probably that he is a bit emotional and can easily rip his heart out from others.

Wang Pingxiu likes reporter Xu's shortcomings very much.

Wang Pingxiu spent two days asking reporter Xu to express his heart and soul, patting his chest and promising that he would write a good, fair and objective report to help promote "The Mulberry Picking Girl" and prevent such a good show from happening in this era. The pearl is covered in dust.

As soon as reporter Xu's report was written, everyone ordered the e-journal online to read it.

As an ordinary viewer who didn't really appreciate "The Mulberry Picking Girl", Jiang Qi felt that Reporter Xu's report was really heartfelt.

In this report, reporter Xu praised the excellent script, excellent lyrics, excellent concept and Feng Ling's wonderful performance of "The Mulberry Picking Girl" while being very fair and objective at the same time. It is predicted that this play is destined to be unlikely to achieve much economic benefit.

The viewing threshold is the biggest shortcoming of "The Mulberry Picking Girl", and it is also an important part of the advantages of "The Mulberry Picking Girl".

Regarding the creation story of "The Mulberry Picking Girl", reporter Xu only used a brief text to describe it in one stroke. Obviously, Reporter Xu did not want this behind-the-scenes story, which is obviously more interesting and explosive, to overshadow the drama itself.

There is no doubt that reporter Xu's report is a fair, objective and wonderful report.

But just like the equally wonderful "The Mulberry Picking Girl", this report is destined not to be seen by too many people.

These days, everyone likes to read entertainment gossip news. No matter how bad it is, it has to be about political matters, and again about finance.

A fair, objective and well-written opera report is still an electronic magazine that requires money to buy. It is really hard for everyone to like it.

"Reporter Xu and his newspaper's e-journal sales are a bit bleak!" Jiang Qi looked at the sales and sighed, "193 copies were sold in one day. Don't their newspapers check the sales of e-journals themselves?"

Cai Jiamin, who came to the theater as usual to sit down and share some guidance, said with a smile: "Boss Jiang, you just don't understand."

"The newspaper that reporter Xu works for is an old newspaper. It has great influence but its sales volume is far lower than before. Most of its sales rely on offline paper editions. They have a very stable number of users who subscribe to newspapers. Electronic journals are just In order to keep up with the times, we don’t expect to make money from e-magazines.”

Jiang Qi's eyes lit up: "So, reporter Xu's report can still be seen by many people?"

Cai Jiamin smiled and nodded: "Of course, and many of them are the audience of "The Mulberry Picking Girl". This newspaper was famous for tracking and reporting on operas back then. When communications were not developed 20 years ago, many theater fans relied on Subscribe to this newspaper to keep track of news and find new shows to watch."

Jiang Qi's smile became more sincere.

Wang Pingxiu has almost no tricks!

"Later later, I shouted hello to my senior brothers and sisters, cut out a section of this report that praised the opera itself, and asked them to repost it to help promote it." Cai Jiamin said, raising her phone, "I helped promote it right away. , Weibo, and Moments, no one is left behind.”

"Thank you very much, Boss Cai." Jiang Qi said quickly.

Cai Jiamin smiled even brighter: "Boss Jiang, don't just thank me. Intercede for me and tell Manager Wang. It's just a playbook. It doesn't matter whether it's a big play or a small play. It can take one year, two years, or three years." , I can do it for five years, as long as Manager Wang agrees to help me write this script!"

"You can tell me the price. I can give you 20 times the market price, or even 30 times! I know that Manager Wang's father won the lottery, and his family has been demolished and there is no shortage of money. This money is actually my intention and attitude. I Make sure not to waste her playbook!"

Jiang Qi smiled bitterly: "Boss Cai, I really can't help with this. I can't agree to this for Xinghua. I know her. If she still doesn't agree after you have paid this price, it means that she may really I feel like I can’t write it.”

Not to mention the market price of 30 times, if Wang Xinghua could really write it, Wang Xinghua would have agreed when Cai Jiamin raised the price to 15 times.

Now, Wang Xinghua probably just hugs Cai Jiamin and cries, crying about why she is a Kunqu opera singer.

Cai Jiamin could only sigh in disappointment.

Although Jiang Qi couldn't help Cai Jiamin here, Cai Jiamin did put his heart and soul into the promotion of "The Mulberry Picking Girl".

Thanks to Cai Jiamin's promotion, many opera actors with a certain fan base who did not come to the theater to watch the premiere of "The Mulberry Picking Girl" forwarded reporter Xu's report and endorsed "The Mulberry Picking Girl".

After reporter Xu’s unpaid reports made their debut, other paid reports also came out one after another.

Because you have received money, of course you must spare no effort when praising.

Different reporters have different reporting priorities.

Some reporters, while reporting on "The Mulberry Picking Girl", also promoted the amusement park and paid one price for two advertisements.

Some reporters focused on Feng Ling, praising the actor's talent, voice, movements and age. After all the praise, they added a sentence about the promising future, making the report less exaggerated.

Some reporters focused on the creation story of the Mulberry Picking Girl. Although everyone regretted that Wang Pingxiu did not have the contact information of the previous Master Wang and could not interview the person who played a key role in the creation process of the Mulberry Picking Girl. Master Wang, but this does not prevent major reporters from writing reports.

Journalists all rely on their pens to make a living. A dry, ordinary story can be made into a bizarre and fascinating story, not to mention that Wang Pingxiu's original story is already exciting enough.

It can be said that the plot needs to have plot, the intention has to have intention, the movie needs to be moving and moving, and it has been sublimated in the end.

Such a wonderful story, if I don't write a 2,000-word essay, I won't be able to live up to Wang Pingxiu's hard performance.

More than one reporter focused their reporting on the creative process of Mulberry Picking Girl.

It is so wonderfully written that I wish I could write a short story based on this creation story.

Then, not surprisingly, some marketing accounts took notice of this little story.

In addition to collecting money for advertising and pacing, marketing accounts also have to find some exciting stories and cut them into videos to maintain fans.

A marketing account that is all about advertising and rhythm is destined to be impossible to last for a long time. It must have its own content to gain a foothold in the market.

The creation story of the mulberry picking girl is undoubtedly a good material.

Ten years of sharpening a sword, inspirational!

Traditional opera, positive energy!

The author's tragic childhood is eye-catching!

Finally, the theme was sublimated, great!

Such a good story would be a waste if it were not cut into a video and released to the elderly who are easily moved.

As a result, among the short videos that Jiang Qi and others could not view, there were several more short story videos about the creation of an excellent opera.

.

In an ordinary household in Shangdu, the 72-year-old grandma is sitting on the sofa in the living room and watching short videos as usual.

After swiping, Nainai's best friend, Grandma Chen, sent her a link to a short video.

The name of the short video is "An Ordinary Creation Story, Worth Remembering!" 》.

Grandma knows that this is a good friend who has seen a good video and shared it with her. Thinking of the mysterious audio message that her best friend shared with her some time ago, Grandma couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and sent a voice message.

"Old Chen, doesn't your grandson study computers? Has he found out which play the lyrics are from?"

Grandma Chen also sent a voice message soon.

"No, my grandson said it was too short to find. He doesn't go to the theater, so I can't count on him. I just don't know if Lao Gen's daughter can be found. I remember his girl works in the theater. "

Grandma replied.

"Isn't his girl selling tickets in the theater? I guess I can't count on it. Oh, don't they say that the Internet is very developed and they young people are very good at playing? Why can't they even find the movie? You don't know, During this period, I listened to it every day, and the more I listened, the more I liked it, and I can’t wait to see this little girl singing the show tomorrow.”

Grandma Chen also replied.

"Me too. It's all my fault, Lao Gen. Sharing things with us that has no beginning or end makes me scratch my head. Have you seen the video I sent you?"

Grandma is back.

"Not yet, look now."

After replying to the message, Grandma clicked on the link.

"An ordinary creative story, I hope it can bring you some insights into life..."

Five minutes later, the grandmother, who had watched the video twice, excitedly forwarded the video to her granddaughter. Considering that her granddaughter didn't seem to like listening to her loud voice, the grandmother could only reluctantly draw words on the screen with difficulty. When she encountered something she couldn't write, she would write simpler typos. Anyway, her granddaughter should be able to understand it.

Five minutes later, Grandma finally sent the message.

Huihui, half-grandma is looking for this to be a show in Pinli.

Grandma’s granddaughter:? ? ?

what happened?

Two days ago, my grandma asked me to help find the origin of a mysterious audio. Today, I found a marketing account video that looked like it was a made-up story that didn't exist.

Grandma has been involved in drama lately?

My granddaughter calmly analyzed it and thought that maybe her grandma was hinting to her that she wanted to watch a show.

The granddaughter called back: "Hey, grandma. I just found out that there is a theater in our house that recently performed Huangmei Opera. Didn't you say that the audio you asked me to find for you was from Huangmei Opera? How about I give it to you? Buy a ticket, when are you free?"

Grandma replied loudly: "Huihui, don't buy the ticket, we won't spend that wasted money."

"You can find Bai Bai's drama for grandma. Grandma can watch it online for free."

"If there is a performance in vain, buy a ticket for grandma to go see it!"

Grandma's granddaughter:...

She thought about it too, but who is this Bai Bai?

I was surfing the Internet like crazy, and I only found a Huangmei Opera actor whose stage name was Xiao Bailing, who was very popular some time ago.

Who is this Baibai?

Does your Huangmei Opera have so many actors recently? ? ?
