After hanging up Li Tian's call, Ye Lan also became interested.
Although she doesn't particularly like Canglan Opera, she is very much looking forward to Li Tian's works.
Furthermore, as Li Tian previously stated, this version of "The Butterfly Lovers" should be considered a reformed version of the Canglan opera.
It was very different from the Canglan Opera she remembered, and she wanted to see exactly what was different!
The next day
Beijing Opera House
Thanks to the night breeze, Li Tian didn't have to put in much effort to arrange a performance.
It doesn't matter how many viewers there are; Li Tian doesn't care at all. What he wants is this place.
However, Li Tian did update a Weibo post yesterday afternoon.
Li Tian: Tomorrow at the Beijing Opera House, there will be a performance of my stage play, "The Butterfly Lovers." Those who are interested can go and see it.
This simple sentence alone caused all the tickets for today to be sold out.
Bai Jing, a member of the Tianxia Band's fan club, was idly scrolling through Weibo when she saw Li Tian's message.
She was the quickest to act, opening the official website immediately and buying three hundred tickets in one go.
She didn't even choose a seat; she just bought it first.
Then she realized how right she had been.
In less than ten minutes, all the tickets for the stage play were sold out.
Today was a day off, and Bai Jing treated the tickets as a company perk.
She bought the tickets early, and they weren't expensive, only 200 yuan each. 300 tickets only cost her 60,000 yuan.
When she arrived at the entrance of the Imperial Opera House, she witnessed the scene from Ah Xing's concert.
Scalpers have already driven the price of tickets up to 2,000 yuan each, and even so, quite a few people are still buying them.
Bai Jing couldn't understand it. This wasn't Li Tian's concert. Were all these people crazy?
When she followed the crowd into the venue, she found that the front row was already full of people.
She was too far away to see who these people were.
As time passed, the performance was about to begin.
At that moment, Li Tian appeared on the stage of the opera house.
Li Tian appeared on stage with a microphone, waved to the audience, and said, "Welcome everyone to support us!"
"I didn't go into detail on Weibo before, but this stage play is actually an innovation of mine, and my inspiration comes from Canglan Opera."
"So friends who are here today, please feel free to point out any shortcomings of this stage play. After all, this stage play has only been created for a short time and still has many shortcomings!"
"Alright, without further ado, please enjoy the newly adapted 'The Butterfly Lovers.' Please welcome the actors to the stage!"
After speaking, Li Tian retreated backstage, leaving the stage to the members of the opera troupe.
Soon the actors appeared on stage, and the story began with Zhu Yingtai making her first appearance.
When Li Shishi, who plays Zhu Yingtai, appeared on stage, it immediately caused a stir among the audience.
The main thing is that Li Shishi looks like a fairy descended from heaven when she wears ancient costumes.
The first impression it gives is beauty, the kind of beauty that only exists in imagination.
Ye Lan had already seen Li Shishi once, and she was still amazed when she saw her again this time.
"Is this really that little girl?" Ye Lan asked Gao Yang, who was standing beside her.
"Yes! It's Li Shishi!" Gao Yang was also amazed by Li Shishi's appearance.
At this moment, Ye Lan was already thinking about who among the younger generation of the Ye family would be suitable.
Such excellent genes should not be wasted; this is exactly the kind of talent the Ye family needs.
Other viewers were equally amazed by Li Shishi, and there was a lot of discussion about it.
Li Shishi also has rich stage experience, and the commotion offstage did not affect her performance.
The plot unfolds little by little as Zhu Yingtai disguises herself as a man and goes to the academy.
The audience was also deeply captivated by the performance on stage.
When they saw Zhu Yingtai and Liang Shanbo make a three-point agreement, placing a bowl of water between them.
All the audience members cursed Liang Shanbo for being an idiot, saying, "Can't you even tell if such a beautiful classmate is a boy or a girl?"
How blind must you be to mistake Zhu Yingtai for a man?
bookworm!
Three years later, the two had completed their studies and were on their way home together when Zhu Yingtai told Liang Shanbo that she had a younger sister who looked exactly like her.
When Liang Shanbo was asked to propose to her at her home when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, he readily agreed.
However, once he returned home, Liang Shanbo put the matter out of his mind.
At this moment, many audience members wanted to go on stage and beat Liang Shanbo to death on the spot.
With such a beautiful wife, how can you not care about her? Are you even a man?
Fortunately, these viewers were somewhat rational and knew that this was acting and not something that actually happened.
When Zhu Yingtai's parents betrothed her to Ma Wencai, countless viewers began to curse Liang Shanbo.
When the peach blossoms fell to the ground, Liang Shanbo suddenly remembered this matter and immediately got up to go to the Zhu family to propose marriage.
It was only then that he learned that Zhu Yingtai was actually a woman, and that he had not come to propose marriage when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, as she had already been betrothed to Ma Wencai.
After returning home, Liang Shanbo fell ill with remorse and grief and passed away.
Upon seeing this, countless viewers cursed him, saying that this was retribution and that such a man deserved to remain a bachelor for life.
Upon hearing the news, Zhu Yingtai was devastated. On the day of her wedding at the Ma family's house, Zhu Yingtai requested to go and pay respects to Liang Shanbo.
Ma Wencai agreed, and Zhu Yingtai wept bitterly at Liang Shanbo's grave.
