I'm not a theatre god

"Sir, our business is getting better!!"

Kong Baosheng spoke excitedly, and the frustration of being blocked by the two door gods a few days ago was instantly gone.

On the opposite stairs, Li Qingshan, who had just been woken up, also walked downstairs in a daze, not knowing what happened. After listening to Kong Baosheng's description, his eyes lit up.

"Brother Lin, this is a good thing!"

"……maybe."

Chen Ling's expression was extremely strange.

In Chen Ling's original plan, the purpose of performing on stage at the birthday banquet was to clear up her identity as "Lin Yan". Appearing at the same time as [6 of Hearts] would make herself absolutely unsuspecting, and it would also leave a deep impression on Hongchen's senior management. It is convenient to use the identity of an actor to complete other tasks in the future, such as taking an invitation to perform as an opportunity to secretly lurk in a certain consortium or government...

But he seemed to have underestimated the entertainment media in the world of mortals, and also underestimated the residents' fanatical pursuit of entertainment. Overnight, he was inexplicably pushed to the forefront of the entire world of mortals, becoming a hot celebrity.

In this case, it is definitely impossible to keep a low profile... I don't know how many people or media will stare at him and pay attention to his every move.

"Actually, it's not necessarily a bad thing..." Chen Ling thought deeply and comforted herself.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Now that he has become a well-known actor and has just completed his cleansing, no one will doubt or pay attention to him in the short term. After he has status and identity, he will do many things more easily. convenient.

And although the police personnel around the casino have now been withdrawn, doubts have been left after all. To be on the safe side, it is best to change the base for the people of the Dusk Club... And now that I have become a corner, I have a huge traffic, which is shocking. Honglou can also completely replace the casino and become a better base option.

It makes sense for a popular celebrity to have a "professional" management team, right?

But the question now is, how to transfer the Twilight Society's stronghold without arousing suspicion? Meeting with Jian Changsheng and the others?

"What bad thing?" Kong Baosheng asked in confusion, "Isn't it a good thing that our theater has more guests? Are you worried that there will be too many guests and the theater will not be able to seat it?"

Li Qingshan thoughtfully said, "This problem is actually easy to solve. Just control the number of places released every day and not too many. It is best to have a reservation system or an invitation system... Anyway, in my opinion, the audience's viewing experience is the best." What’s important is that at least the theater can’t be too crowded.”

"Invitation only..."

Hearing these three words, Chen Ling's eyes lit up slightly.

"That's it." Chen Ling pondered for a moment, "Today is the first day of our theater's opening. Baosheng, please make a few invitations and send them to other stores on the street, asking them to come to Jinghong Tower to listen to the opera tonight... As for For the guests outside, please number them in order, and try to sit down if you can tonight.”

"Are you inviting the neighbors to the opening? I think this is a good idea." Li Qingshan nodded, "As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. If we perform on the first day, the battle should be more lively. From now on, everyone will be so close, so we can also take care of them. ”

"Understood! I will prepare the invitations right away! Send them to them one by one."

Kong Baosheng nodded heavily, turned around and left.

"etc."

Kong Baosheng turned to look at Chen Ling in confusion, only to see the latter staring at the closed door of the theater, thinking for a long time, and then spoke again,

"From now on, Jinghong Tower must set some rules."

"What rules?"

"There won't be performances every day at Jinghong Tower. If it rains, we won't be open to the public."

"Don't sing when it rains?" Kong Baosheng scratched his head, "Although it's understandable, is it too willful for us? It rains here every three days."

Chen Ling smiled helplessly, "Have you forgotten that the roof of the theater is broken? If it's windy or rainy, even guests sitting here will get wet. In this case, it's better not to perform... and wait for me to repair it. After earning the money from the roof, let’s talk about performing on rainy days.”

Only then did Kong Baosheng remember this. Although not singing in the rain would lose a lot of performance income, there was really nothing he could do about it. He nodded and went to arrange these things.

The roof leaking was naturally just Chen Ling's excuse.

Although the unexpected popularity of Jinghong Tower has become a foregone conclusion, it is impossible for Chen Ling to sing here every day. There will always be things to do in the Twilight Society to be busy, and often not performing behind closed doors will not only cause conflicts among the people, but also if someone with intentions is to keep the door closed. Linking the non-acting time with recent major events can easily arouse unnecessary suspicion.

But if you use the dilapidated roof as an excuse and set the rule of "no singing in the rain" in advance, then even if the door is often closed in the future, it will not arouse suspicion.

At the end of the day, if it doesn’t rain, isn’t it still up to Director Chen to write the script?

"The performance is about to start tonight... Then I have to prepare well." Li Qingshan's eyebrows were full of seriousness, "By the way, Brother Lin, which song should we sing today?"

Chen Ling thought for a while and said:

"Just sing...Butterfly Lovers."

…

casino.

Jian Changsheng, who had not seen the sun for a long time, finally opened the curtains and opened the windows. When he was bathed in the sunshine again, he was so moved that he almost shed tears.

"It's been a long time since I breathed free air..." Jian Changsheng couldn't help but sigh, "Tonight, I can finally sleep well."

Diamond 10 was also overlooking the casino gate below from the window, and said in confusion:

"Is that why the plainclothes evacuated? Why do I feel that there are so few extra guests in the casino today..."

"It's true that there are fewer people. Logically, the flow of people here should increase after the dance hall is closed." Red Heart 9 thought, "Where did all these people go?"

"Hey, why are there so many people over there?"

Jian Changsheng saw a group of people gathered on the street not far away, seemingly queuing to receive something, blocking most of the road.

"I don't know... I remember that there was an abandoned theater there, and it should have reopened."

"No wonder..."

While everyone was talking, a knock on the door came from outside. Jian Changsheng's face froze, and he looked at the other three members of the Dusk Club, and quietly moved to the door.

"What's the matter?"

"Supervisor, a child came downstairs and said that he was from a new theater across the street."

"Child?" Jian Changsheng was stunned, "Why is he here?"

"He said that their theater is officially open today, and they invite neighbors on the street to go to the theater together... and they also sent an invitation letter." As he spoke, the figure outside the door stuffed a piece of paper through the crack of the door.

Jian Changsheng took it and found that it was indeed an invitation, but the material was very rough, and it must have been made in a hurry.

"...Jinghong Tower?" Jian Changsheng muttered when he saw the signature on the invitation.
