Seeing Zhou Bin's excited face, Liu Fen'e couldn't help but ask, "Zhou Bin, who did you invite tonight? Tell me about it."
Zhou Bin smiled mysteriously: "That won't work. You'll know in a moment."
Liu Fen'e pouted and said, "Why are you so stingy? What's wrong with you telling me?"
Zhou Bin kept his mouth shut and didn't say a word.
Li Nan laughed and said, "Fen'e, it doesn't matter if he doesn't say anything. It will start soon anyway."
Zhou Bin came back to the stage with a smile. At this time, everyone was already seated.
Men and women, young and old, the area under the stage was so crowded that there was hardly any place to stand.
When everyone saw Zhou Bin, they all greeted him warmly. Zhou Bin reminded everyone to keep warm.
Just like that, time soon came to eight o'clock in the evening, and the curtain that had been covering the scene was slowly pulled open.
The crowd below the stage, which had been noisy just now, instantly became quiet, and as the curtain opened, everyone finally saw the true appearance of the stage.
Many people couldn't help but exclaim that the play being performed today was the famous Qinqiang comedy: "Looking at Women"!
Everyone was so happy because this is a classic Qinqiang piece!
While everyone was still waiting and watching, the main actors came on stage one by one, and as the leading actors appeared, the audience suddenly exploded with a bang.
It turns out that the person invited today is the nationally renowned old artist Mr. Wang Fusheng. He is now 75 years old and has rarely appeared on stage before.
I didn't expect that Zhou Bin and others could invite him out of retirement. It was such a pleasant surprise.
Everybody was very excited. This play was a hilarious and amusing one, and it was also one of the most popular plays among rural people.
The clown performance by Wang Fusheng was vivid and lifelike, ugly but not vulgar, and was deeply loved by everyone.
Therefore, the cheers and applause from the audience instantly merged into a huge ocean, which could deafen people's ears.
Liu Junyi and Zhou Jianming in the audience were so happy that they couldn't even clap their hands. They were also extremely surprised. They didn't expect that Zhou Bin would actually invite this old gentleman out. It was such a pleasant surprise.
Li Nan and Liu Fen'e were also stunned. They especially liked watching Mr. Wang Fusheng play the biased mother-in-law, which was so lifelike that it made people laugh.
But later I heard that he was old and no longer performed on stage, so I felt very sorry.
I didn’t expect that he would be able to perform on stage today, and come to their village. This was unimaginable in the past.
At this time, Wang Fusheng stood on the stage, looking at the crowd below, which was as loud as a tsunami, and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.
He hasn't been on stage for a long time, and I thought everyone had forgotten him.
When Lei Shuangyuan came to invite him, he still refused.
He felt that traditional opera had already fallen into decline and no one liked to watch it, so there was no need for him to cause himself sadness.
Therefore he was unwilling, but Lei Shuangyuan told him that this time he would go directly to the village to perform, and the audience would be simple villagers, and everyone especially liked Qinqiang.
Moreover, the organizers are very sincere this time, offering very generous rewards and showing great respect to them.
Finally, after Lei Shuangyuan's strong persuasion, Wang Fusheng finally changed his mind.
He hasn't been on stage for a long time, but deep down he still longs to perform and receive applause from the audience.
Finally, Wang Fusheng nodded and agreed. Lei Shuangyuan was very happy and immediately called Zhou Bin to tell him about it.
Zhou Bin finally felt relieved. This first performance finally had a heavyweight actor as the closing act.
Wang Fusheng on the stage bowed deeply to everyone to express his gratitude.
Then the actors left the stage and the performance officially began.
As the familiar banhu sounded, a visual and auditory feast slowly began.
The audience immediately began to concentrate on the story. The entire audience was filled with men, women, young and old, craning their necks. Everyone laughed and pointed at the stage from time to time, appearing extremely excited and involved in the story.
Although Wang Fusheng on the stage is over 70 years old, he is very precise and his body movements and steps are so precise that people applaud and cheer.
At this time, Li Nan and Liu Fen'e had already immersed themselves completely in the activity. They had already forgotten the coldness around them and everything around them.
Zhou Bin originally wanted to call Li Nan to go home, but seeing how happy she was watching, he didn't call her.
He turned around and went home, and took two blankets, one for Li Nan and one for Liu Fen'e.
Liu Fen'e didn't want it, and she covered them all with Li Nan.
The performance that evening lasted until ten o'clock, but the audience was still reluctant to leave as they were still not satisfied.
However, since Mr. Wang was very old and the weather was still a bit cold at the time, Zhou Bin arranged for someone to quickly send the actors to the hotel to rest.
As for everyone who had been gathered in the audience and was unwilling to leave, Zhou Bin had someone tell everyone that the performance would continue tomorrow night and there would be performances every day thereafter.
When everyone heard this, they were happy and the crowd slowly dispersed.
Zhou Bin also took Li Nan back home. After a while, the old father came back with an excited look on his face.
As soon as he entered the room, he said, "Binbin, today's show is so good. You are really capable! It's not easy to invite Mr. Wang to come out."
Zhou Bin laughed: "Dad, I said I would definitely surprise you, wasn't I right?"
Li Nan was now sitting in a warm room, feeling much more comfortable.
She smiled and said, "Brother Bin, I had a great time today! The show was so funny, I laughed many times."
Zhou Bin said with concern: "Xiao Nan, take it easy and watch your stomach."
Li Nan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Bin, I'm fine."
Zhou Bin was also very happy in his heart. Today's first performance was very successful.
Things will be easy from now on, and you just need to start step by step.
In this way, their village has one more attractive highlight, which will also be an advantage in competing with others in the future.
He has made plans that the performances will not be limited to operas, and more types of programs will be brought to the stage in the future.
He hopes to display anything that is national and distinctive here.
He hopes that their village can make a contribution to the inheritance of these cultures, and at the same time allow everyone to benefit from it and do some small business.
From then on, different plays were performed on the stage every day, and it soon became a special attraction of the scenic spot, attracting more and more people to travel there.
A month later, the number of daily visitors to the two scenic spots had increased from more than 7,000 to 10,000, and ticket revenue had increased significantly.
This made Zhou Bin very happy, and there will be more highlights in the scenic area in the future.
Time flies and it is April. At this time, spring has truly arrived in Beiyuan Village.
