Counterattack 1988

With the improvement of the living standards of the people, the tickets for the Little Bailing Theater have also increased. In addition to the income from rewards, snacks and fruits, if a performance is full of people, the income can reach tens of thousands, and the highest income can reach hundreds of thousands. Not without it.

Stars of this era only pay a few thousand yuan for appearances. Singer Wei who sings "Asian Heroes" is considered high, 6000 yuan per show, Ms. Amin is 5500 yuan, Tianqi is of the same level, also 5500 yuan, Brother Huan is 5000 yuan Yuan, sister Lingyu is 5000 yuan, others, such as Comrade Xiaodong 3000 yuan, Comrade National Day is also 3000 yuan.

In the mid-90s, Sister Na, Xiaodong, and Sister Zhen jumped up to the first-line singers. At that time, they made a platter performance and asked for a price of 3. At this time, Hong Kong and Taiwan artists began to perform in the mainland. The most popular singer at that time was For Meng Tingwei, Little Tigers, Qi Qin and others, they usually cost 5 yuan to sing two or three songs for one performance. Since then, it has become a practice that Hong Kong and Taiwan singers pay more for appearances than mainland singers.

By the end of the 90s, the performance market in the mainland was almost dominated by singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan. At that time, the music scene in the mainland was relatively sluggish. 30 yuan.The most expensive singers in the mainland are Huan Ge and Tian Shuo, and their appearance fees have reached 20 yuan.The highest female singer is Yang Yuying, reaching more than 20 yuan.Mao Lin is 12 yuan, and other famous male singers are 8 yuan.

With Wang Lin's help, Sister Lin has become a first-line singer, and her appearance fee is considered a first-line star in China.

Wang Lin still remembers that when he invited his sister Lin to perform in Shanghai in 1988, the appearance fees of celebrities at that time were lower, generally ranging from 600 yuan to 1000 yuan.

Of course, the appearance fees of Peking opera actors cannot be compared with that of celebrities, because celebrities have a large number of fans and strong appeal.

Li Susu is not particularly famous now, and her appearance fee should be around 2000 yuan.

Wang Lin held a special show for Li Susu, regardless of the ticket revenue, he had to pay the appearance fee.

A mere 2000 yuan, Wang Lin didn't pay attention at all.

But to delay a performance at the Little Bailing Theater!
If the income is too low, the loss will be huge, and you will lose tens of thousands of dollars.

In the early 90s, tens of thousands of dollars was considered a large amount, and it was enough to buy a house or a car.

Of course Li Susu understood this part, so she was very grateful to Wang Lin for this opportunity.

Wang Lin approached Zhang Xiaojia, Luo Yuanzhong, Jiang Huifang and others to discuss about holding a special event for Li Susu tomorrow.

Jiang Huifang and Luo Yuanzhong were very surprised when they heard this.

"Mr. Wang, why do you want to hold a special performance for her?" Luo Yuanzhong said in a daze, "She is just the head of a Beijing opera troupe in Shanxi Province. There are many such heads in the country. If we want to do it, we should also invite Mei Baojiu With such a respected teacher coming, that is the Taishan Beidou in the Peking Opera world, and the income from the performance is more guaranteed."

Zhang Xiaojia said: "Li Susu's reputation is indeed not high, but Mr. Wang likes her! Hee hee!"

Only then did Luo Yuanzhong change his words: "Li Susu is Mr. Mei's proud apprentice. Her strength and potential are both great. Wang Lin's favorite person must be the same. Let's do it!"

Jiang Huifang said with a smile: "Susu is beautiful and charming. Such a talent does have a bright future."

Wang Lin was speechless after hearing this, knowing that they had misunderstood him.

They must have thought that Wang Lin fell in love with Li Susu.

Wang Lin didn't care, and said, "Okay, don't make wild guesses. This is the first time Susu and I have met, and I just admire her talent. And I believe that her future development will definitely be limitless. We It is a rising star like her that Xiao Bailing wants to make friends with and invest in."

Zhang Xiaojia said: "Then what time is more appropriate to arrange it? Of course, the number of visitors is the highest in the evening, but I'm afraid there won't be many people watching the show."

She said it very tactfully, and didn't directly say that not many people would come to see Li Susu's performance.

Wang Lindao: "Then arrange it for the first session in the afternoon."

It's also a golden hour.

On holidays, more people come out to play in the afternoon than in the morning.

Zhang Xiaojia said: "We have to make advertisements and leaflets quickly."

Luo Yuanzhong said: "During the first lunar month, where can we find someone to do this?"

Wang Lindao: "It's definitely too late for the publicity. You can find the company's art staff to hand-make the signboard for Teacher Li Susu's special performance. We have a lot of customers in Little Bailing, as long as the customers who come here can pay the bill."

Zhang Xiaojia and others took orders.

After Wang Lin left, Luo Yuanzhong asked puzzledly: "Mr. Zhang, what is the relationship between Mr. Wang and this Li Susu? He is willing to hold a special show for her? In our company, only sister Lin has such treatment."

Zhang Xiaojia shook her head: "I don't see any relationship between them. I heard Mr. Wang said that it was the first time he met Mr. Li. I believe this is true. Before that, Mr. Li did not study under Mr. Mei." Yi, who works in Jin Province, how can he know Mr. Wang?"

Jiang Huifang smiled and said: "There is nothing difficult to understand. Wang is always a fancier. He just likes Li Susu's tone and is willing to help her. Li Susu is really lucky. She met Mr. Wang, a noble man. From then on, she will be prosperous .”

Luo Yuanzhong said: "Could it be that Mr. Wang wants to praise Li Susu? The question is, isn't she an artist of our company?"

Zhang Xiaojia said: "You reminded me, I will talk to Teacher Li and ask her if she would like to join our company."

Jiang Huifang said: "Xiao Jia, don't worry, it won't be too late to ask after the show ends tomorrow."

Zhang Xiaojia said: "Oh, Teacher Jiang, you mean, you want to see the reaction of Teacher Li's special session first?"

Jiang Huifang said: "I guess Mr. Wang also meant the same thing. He is very optimistic about Li Susu. He will open a special show to see her comprehensive strength. If Li Susu can pass the assessment of Mr. Wang tomorrow, she will probably become our company's employee." Tai Zhuzi, like Sister Lin, is highly praised by Mr. Wang, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future."

Zhang Xiaojia said: "Teacher Jiang is more considerate, then I will ask tomorrow."

They wantonly speculate on Wang Lin's intentions, but who can really understand Wang Lin?

Wang Lin trusts and loves Li Susu, why is there any need to test her strength?

If Wang Lin didn't know Li Susu's future achievements, how could he use a special session to test her?This cost is too high, right?

Wang Lin knew that after ten years, Li Susu would grow into a brilliant business card in the domestic Peking Opera circle!
He just got to know her in advance, and then wanted to make her popular in advance.

Back home that night, everyone was tired after playing all day, so they took a shower and went to bed.

Although this is also his own property, it is an unfamiliar environment to Li Wenxiu.

When a woman comes to an unfamiliar environment, her dependence on men will be extremely high.

Li Wenxiu nestled docilely in Wang Lin's arms, close to her husband's warm heart.

The two cannot avoid a fierce love.

"I have a feeling that I will be pregnant today." Li Wenxiu murmured.

"Why?" Wang Lin raised her chin and asked with a smile, "Is there still such a feeling? Isn't it strange?"

Li Wenxiu smiled and said, "I just have this feeling, do you believe it or not?"

"Trust!" Wang Lin laughed, "Anyway, we have a baby, it doesn't matter if we get pregnant or not."

"It can't be indifferent!" Li Wenxiu said, "Shen Xue is not married, and she is pregnant with a second child. We have been together for so long, how can we not have a second child? In the past, we had to keep our jobs, so we had no choice but to have a second child." One Wen. Now we don’t care about the establishment of the state-owned enterprise, so it must be born.”

"Okay!" Wang Lin said with a smile, "In order to make your dream come true, shouldn't we increase the probability?"

"How to increase? Can this be increased?"

"The more times you love each other, the probability will increase?"

Li Wenxiu blushed shyly: "Yes! As long as you're not tired."

"I'm not tired! I'm very happy!" Wang Lin rolled over.

……

On the second day of the Lunar New Year in 1993, Wang Lin and the others slept in.

The benefits of traveling to other places for the New Year are obvious. You can appreciate the customs and customs of various places, and you can also avoid a lot of New Year visits.

Usually at home, Wang Lin and Li Wenxiu are extremely busy during the Spring Festival holiday.

Wang Lin was busy going out to pay New Year's greetings, and Li Wenxiu also had to get up early to entertain the guests at home.

From six o'clock in the morning on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Wenxiu got up to make breakfast for the family, until the end of the holiday, she had no leisure for a moment.

When they arrive in other places, they can rest as much as they like, sleeping until they wake up naturally.

There is no major development around the villa area, and it looks like a beautiful landscape. Although it is winter in the big northern cities, the air is fresh and natural in the morning.

After Wang Lin woke up, he pushed open the window, and a gust of cold wind blew in front of him.

In front of the house is a quietly flowing river with green plants on both sides.

Although the temperature is low, but fortunately the weather is sunny.

The location of this villa area, apart from being a bit far from the central city, has no faults that can be picked on. No wonder this will become the Yangshu District in the future!

The snow in Beijin was not as much as imagined. Wang Lin and the others had never seen snow in the past few days.

He deliberately listened to the weather forecast. The temperature in the next few days will remain between minus six and three degrees, but there is still no snow.

It seems that the wish to see snow in the north cannot be realized.

It was already past ten o'clock in the morning.

Li Wenxiu also had a rare sleep and just opened her eyes.

"Oh, it's half past ten!" Li Wenxiu laughed, "I don't know if Wenwen had breakfast yet!"

Wang Lindao: "With so many people, even if he is hungry?"

Li Wenxiu didn't want to move lazily: "Wang Lin, come here."

Wang Lin closed the window and walked over, lying on the bed and laughing, "What's wrong?"

Li Wenxiu hugged him, her voice was soft and soft, making one's bones go crisp: "I still want to!"

Wang Lin smiled and said, "What's the matter with you? I've never seen you like this before."

"Maybe I'm really pregnant!" Li Wenxiu said, "I remember when I was pregnant with Wenwen, I also felt this way, I just really wanted it."

What else can Wang Lin say?
Given the choice between breakfast and his wife, of course he chose his wife.

It took another hour to play, and I didn't come downstairs until noon.

Zhou Congee couldn't help teasing the two of them, saying that they had played too much, that they didn't know the sky was dark, and they didn't know what time it was.

Wang Lin laughed and said, "You're the only one who talks too much! If you don't like it, then just ignore it. It doesn't matter if we play our game, right?"

Zhou Congee said: "It's nothing that hinders me, but you guys won't come down, even if we want to go out to play, we've been waiting for you."

Wang Lindao: "Are you blaming me for delaying your time? You can go wherever you want to play, and you don't have to wait for us."

Zhou Jun said, "Wang Lin, should we go to the Great Wall?"

Wang Lindao: "I've been there. Although it's magnificent and beautiful, it's really difficult to climb. We have to take our children with us. It's not a good idea to climb the Great Wall."

As soon as Wang Lin heard this, she immediately expressed support: "My brother is right, whoever wants to go, whoever wants to take the children!"

When Zhou Jun heard that he wanted to take his son to climb the Great Wall, he was immediately discouraged.

Zhou Changgong has passed the age of being curious about running, and now he is very lazy, he can't walk very far, and he always asks for a hug.

If you climb the Great Wall with a half-grown child in your arms, it is not called enjoyment, but suffering.

"Forget it, let's talk about it when the children grow up!" Zhou Jun said with a chuckle.

Wang Lindao: "You can go to a few parks, the Summer Palace, Fragrant Hills Park, Temple of Heaven Park, Old Summer Palace, or the Old Museum. Take a look at Tiananmen Square by the way."

Zhou Congee asked, "Aren't you going?"

Wang Lindao: "I'm going to Xiao Bailing, I have something to do over there."

Zhou Congee asked what was the matter?

Wang Lin said it was Li Susu's special performance.

Zhou Congee was a little hesitant when she heard that it was all Peking opera. She likes musical instruments and music, but her interest in Peking opera is actually average. .

Li Wenxiu smiled and said, "Let's go to the park! I'm afraid the children won't be able to sit still."

Wang Lin looked at Zhou Jun.

Zhou Jun quickly waved his hands and smiled, "I'm going to the park too."

Wang Lin laughed and said, "Okay, the responsibility of protecting women and children will be handed over to Comrade Zhou Jun."

In the afternoon, Wang Lin went to Little Bailing Theater.

Little Bailing was ready, and a big water sign was erected at the door.

Li Susu's oil painting was painted on the water sign, and the repertoire of today's performance was written, as well as a brief introduction to her life.

Mr. Mei's closed disciple and head of the Peking Opera Theater in Jin Province, these titles are also attractive enough.

Especially the oil paintings of Li Susu's costumes in Beijing opera, which are particularly energetic.

Wang Lin looked at the water sign and said it was well drawn.

The show hasn't started yet.

Zhang Xiaojia and others were all present.

Wang Lin asked, "How are the tickets selling?"

Zhang Xiaojia said, "Only sell one third."

Wang Lin yelled: "Is there no one to see?"

Zhang Xiaojia said in a low voice: "The special show is different from the usual performances. There are many shows in the usual time. If you don't like to watch this one, you can watch other ones, but there are fewer people who can watch the Beijing Opera special show. Our venue is so big and there are so many seats, we can sell it." Going to one-third of the votes is already remarkable."

Wang Lin was silent, he understood what Zhang Xiaojia said was true.

His family members are usually very active in watching performances. When they heard that it was a Peking Opera performance, they immediately turned around and went to the park to play.

This is like the Spring Festival Gala on the opera channel, and the Spring Festival Gala on the main station, the audience is very different.

Luo Yuanzhong said: "Actually, it's really not bad. We have such a big venue, and there are thousands of people in one third of it! Like those Beijing opera stages in Beijing, there are only one or two hundred people."

Wang Lin looked at the time, there were still [-] minutes left before leaving the venue.

"In the next time, I don't know how many tickets can be sold?" Wang Lin said, "I hope more people will come to see it! Where's Teacher Li Susu?"

Zhang Xiaojia said: "She is already preparing backstage, and she is both looking forward to and apprehensive about this special performance."

Wang Lin originally wanted to visit her, but was afraid of disturbing her mood, so he waited for the show to begin.
