Datang romantic little landlord

The curtain behind the stage can move and change according to different plots.
What gave Li Wangyou the most headaches were the two problems of sound reinforcement and lighting.
After several discussions with the beautiful boss, in addition to using the semi-circular theater to gather sound, the craftsmen were also ordered to hand-make many loudspeakers with copper skin.
The principle of this copper loudspeaker is actually the same as that of the Chinese bell.The hollow metal material is used to resonate, thereby amplifying the volume.
After the experiment, Li Wangyou confirmed that even if he sat in the last row of the theater, he could clearly hear the music and dialogue on the stage, and he was satisfied.But this is also the reason why the theater can only accommodate 300 people. No matter how big the theater is, the effect of radio reception cannot be guaranteed.
As for the lighting of the stage, since there were no light bulbs, Li Wangyou had no choice but to make things simple. He ordered the craftsmen to make a silver-plated concave bronze mirror, with a large oil lamp in the middle for lighting.
This is basically a replica of the so-called Edison's story of reflecting candle light with a mirror, illuminating the doctor, and performing surgery on his mother.
Although the story about Edison is false, it does not affect Li Wangyou's use of the concentrating light of the concave mirror to illuminate the stage.This set of crude lighting setup is quite effective. The concave mirror has the characteristics of concentrating light, and it can actually project an effect similar to the spotlight of later generations on the stage.
Even Li Wangyou used the gunpowder he created to design a lot of fireworks special effects for the stage.
Li Wangyou is convinced that today's performance will definitely shock Li Er and the others, the "earth turtles" of the Tang Dynasty.
The seats in the theater were all made by Li Wangyou according to the seats of later cinemas, and he found craftsmen to make them.The difference is that each seat is very large, extremely soft, and has large armrests, making it very comfortable to sit on.Between every two seats, there is also a coffee table for placing tea and snacks.
The target customers that Li Wangyou planned to target were all the nobles in Chang'an City.To get money out of these people's pockets, it is natural to give them the best enjoyment.
As for the actors in the theater, Li Wangyou spent a lot of money and spent a long time on Li Er to buy Legie from Taichang Temple, and handed it to Afuluo to train for a month or so.
Fortunately, these Le Ji had already undergone professional training in Taichang Temple. Although the rehearsal time was short, Li Wangyou was very satisfied after watching their program.
He didn't even think about it, these Le Ji were all cultivated by Taichang Temple with a lot of effort, but they were almost taken away by Li Wangyou.
For this matter, the minister of Taichang Temple often went to Li Er to cry.
There are no actors in the theater because Li Wangyou doesn't want to cause trouble.
After all, in stage plays, it is inevitable to stage some stories about the love between men and women. If actors and actresses are asked to perform you and me on stage, Li Wangyou is afraid that he will be sprayed to death by those pedantic people.
In this way, Li Wangyou would rather let the woman play the male role instead of being troublesome.It's not a big deal, anyway, he doesn't want to watch the old men perform on the stage.
In the orchestra pit in front of the stage, dozens of musicians are busy adjusting their instruments.
In the era without tape recorders, the dubbing required for performances required these musicians to perform live.
And these musicians, needless to say, were also Li Wangyou who "robbed" Taichang Temple back.
Thinking about it this way, he complained about Li Er's "robbing" his pool table before, and he didn't seem to have the stance to say that.
A group of big guests, under the attentive guidance of the maids and servants serving in the theater, entered the theater and took their seats.
Immediately, another maidservant brought them tea, snacks, melons and fruits, which were placed on the tea table between the seats.
Most of the guests, after entering the theater, looked very curious, looking around like a curious baby.
Even the wide seat under the buttocks, these noble people in Chang'an City are very novel, they keep getting up and sitting down again, full of "earthy" spirit, no different from Grandma Liu who just entered the Grand View Garden.
As for the old men like Li Er and Cheng Yaojin, they didn't show their timidity in front of everyone's eyes, because they all had their own private boxes.
Li Wangyou imitated the design of later European theaters. On the second floor of the theater, there are various boxes for the convenience of Li Er and the princes, princes, kings and princes to watch the theater.
In each box, there are specially selected beautiful maids to serve, which can be described as luxurious to the bone.
After Li Er followed Li Wangyou into the private room, he looked left and right, was very satisfied, then walked up to the fence, looked down, looked at the stage with thick curtains, and finally couldn't help asking curiously : "Ziyou, what kind of performance do you mean? But there is Le Ji performing dance?"
He guessed like this, naturally because Li Wangyou took away so many Le Ji from Taichang Temple.
Li Wangyou didn't explain, but he just laughed and said: "Uncle, you can see it with your own eyes, and my nephew can only guarantee that it will definitely make your trip worthwhile with your aunt."
Empress Changsun glared at him instead: "Hmph, if you're bored, be careful I'll go to Changqing to settle the score."
Li Wangyou was speechless, how could this Empress Changsun, who acted like a mother in front of others, be so mean to herself?
In fact, he also knew that Empress Changsun treated him like this because she didn't treat him as an outsider.
After everyone chatted, it was time for the show to begin.
Immediately, servants from the theater filed in and extinguished the oil lamps used for lighting in the theater, and soon the whole theater was plunged into darkness. There was a lot of noise, and I didn't understand what happened.
In the orchestra pit, the sound of music sounded, which slowly subsided the noise in the theater below.
And on the stage, the curtain slowly opened...
796 Cowherd and Weaver Girl
Among the many stories Li Wangyou told Aphrodite, the blond beauty liked the love stories of "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" and "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" the most.
Regarding this, Li Wangyou was also very speechless. Sure enough, no matter ancient or modern, women like these stories of love and love. It is no wonder that the stick TV dramas of later generations can earn so many women's tears and money.
Because of Afro's insistence, the first performance of Datang Theater was "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl".
The story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is well known in later generations. It was a rogue young man who peeped on the girl in the shower, stole the girl's clothes shamelessly, and threatened the girl to make love with him.
After the girl was coerced into marriage, she gave birth to a son and a daughter.
Later, the girl's mother found out about this, and took the girl home. She was generous and did not hold the young man responsible.
Who would have imagined that the dick young man would not give up, and chased after the door to ask for a girl. In the end, the old lady of the girl was forced to have no choice but to allow the dick young man to see the girl once a year on Qixi Festival...
This is Li Wangyou's understanding of the beautiful love story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl... He couldn't understand why the story of a rogue young man who forcibly married his wife would become a love classic for later generations, and turned Qixi Festival into Valentine's Day.
Fortunately, Li Wangyou didn't dare to say such a thought, otherwise, if the beautiful boss heard it, it might turn into a domestic violence.
The curtain slowly opened, and amidst the sound of music, Le Ji, who played the role of a cowherd, appeared on the stage.
The development of the plot quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the theater, and there was no more noise, including Li Er and Empress Changsun, all of them stared intently at the performances on the stage.
Li Wangyou and the beautiful boss really didn't miss out, Afuluo is really a genius.After watching the performance videos on the mobile phone and hearing the general story told by Li Wangyou, he arranged the entire performance in a decent way.
The performance arranged by Afuluo is similar to the musicals of later generations, but the dialogue is like a drama, but Li Wangyou must admit that the performance is very exciting and beautiful.
Moreover, the musicians and musicians who "robbed" from Taichang Temple are indeed professionals who have been trained by Taichang Temple all year round.
Even though they only rehearsed for a short month, these Le Jis on the stage, whether it was dancing or singing and reciting, were all professional, and they were definitely not comparable to any grass-roots team.
Even sitting in the private room with his beautiful boss, he watched with relish, not to mention those Tang "turtles" in the theater.
More than 300 guests, including Li Er, were all immersed in the plot on the stage.
But when on the stage, the scene of the kind and hardworking Cowherd being kicked out of the house by his mean brother and sister-in-law after the death of his parents, something happened in the audience.
But one person suddenly stood up, glared at Le Ji who played the role of brother and sister-in-law on the stage, blew his beard and stared and reprimanded him: "Bold madman! Mutual murder is a heinous crime! Er'an dare to do this? Come on! Give me Take these two people down and put them in prison to examine their criminal evidence carefully!"
