Chapter 453 Performance Chapter
clang clang.
There was a knock on the door.
Lu Youyou glanced at the time; it was already 6:05.
When she gets busy, she doesn't have time to think about anything else.
"Stop knocking right now."
"Okay," Cui Qi replied.
Lu Youyou opened the door, and Cui Qi was somewhat surprised: "So fast today?"
"I got up a long time ago and have been checking the chat."
Cui Qi's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything.
At this moment, Zhang Heng and Zhang Wei also opened the door and came out.
"Let's go and see what profitable businesses are available in the lobby."
The group walked out of the corridor and into the hall.
Yesterday, she was right when she glanced at it; this was indeed a theater.
On stage, the monsters were performing the Thousand-Hand Guanyin dance, their skills were superb, almost on par with the national-level performers she had seen on television.
When the music ended, the audience's reaction was lukewarm.
A few kind-hearted audience members took out ghost coins as a token and tossed them onto the stage.
However, there were too few coins and too many people, so there weren't enough to go around. Several people started fighting on the platform and were eventually forced off the stage by the theater manager.
The host went on stage, smiling at everyone.
"The little incident just now lightened the mood. Next, I will explain the theater rules to the new guests. Please listen carefully if you want to perform."
"New performers can jump the queue upon registration, while veteran performers need to wait in line to perform. OK, that concludes the explanation. Please enjoy the dance performed by Ghost Man No. 432: Redemption."
Zhang Wei asked softly, "Big sister, do you want to perform too?"
Lu Youyou replied softly, "Don't you know how to dance? Go up and give it a try."
"No, no, no, I can dance on the dance machine, but I'm too scared on stage. I'd rather go up there and tell lame jokes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience in the theater burst into laughter.
It turned out that the ghost performer on stage made a mistake; his costume tore, revealing fake breasts, fake buttocks, and fake buttocks.
This is a ghost man dressed as a woman!
Before the performance was even over, audience members in the front row started throwing ghost coins onto the stage.
The loud banging sounds struck Lu Youyou's heart directly.
She seems to have figured out what the audience likes.
They prefer the performers on stage to make fools of themselves rather than perform serious song and dance.
But she wasn't sure, so she waited downstairs for the third program.
The third performance was a skit, where the two actors sang and laughed, making the audience roar with laughter. They even threw ghost coins onto the stage as if they were free.
Lu Youyou slapped her thigh: "I've made up my mind!"
Zhang Wei: "What decision have you made?"
"You and Zhang Heng go up and act out the story of a domineering CEO falling in love with me."
Zhang Wei: ? ? ?
"Alright, for everyone's Ghost Coins, I'm willing to sacrifice myself and play the CEO."
Lu Youyou casually said things that made Zhang Wei want to die.
“You play the innocent girl, and Zhang Heng plays the domineering CEO.”
Zhang Heng clapped her hands: "That's great! I can do it! I've read a lot of CEO quotes before, and I can recite them off the cuff."
Lu Youyou turned her head: "Really? I was going to give you a script. Tell me what you think it is. If you can improvise, then I don't need to give you a script."
Zhang Heng cleared her throat.
"Man, you've successfully caught my attention. There's ten million in your account. Be my mistress for a month."
"You kicked Qiangzi's stomach until it was red, but you only broke your right leg. Apologize to Qiangzi!"
"Wei, you know, Qiangzi lost his parents when he was young and lived with my family. I've always treated him like a younger brother. Only now do I realize that you are my true love!"
"Really? You're willing to forgive me? By the way, Qiangzi was diagnosed with kidney failure last month. I've already found someone to match you two, and the transplant will be tonight."
……
With every word Zhang Heng spoke, Zhang Wei's suicidal thoughts grew stronger.
He simply covered his ears, but the demonic sound seemed to have grown hands, prying his hands open and drilling into his ears.
He cried out in anguish, pleading for help from Lu Youyou.
Lu Youyou clapped her hands with bright eyes.
"Alright, alright, you're already a qualified domineering scumbag CEO. You can act out any role, big or small, without needing a script."
Zhang Heng cupped his hands, dressed as a young scholar in ancient style, and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
Zhang Wei had a bad feeling: "Big sister, you don't really want the two of us to go up and act, do you?"
Lu Youyou stared at him: "Is there a problem?"
Zhang Wei was utterly despondent: "Can I still struggle? I'm willing to go up and dance myself."
Cui Qi delivered the fatal blow.
"Your dance isn't worth much; the louder people laugh, the more money they're willing to pay."
Zhang Wei:......
He squatted on the ground in silence for five minutes, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll act!"
Fearing he might change his mind, Zhang Heng immediately called on the host to add their segment, saying it would be theirs after the show ended.
One minute later, the redemption dance performance ended.
The host came on stage and went through the performance rules again before announcing the next program.
"Next, please enjoy... um... pfft!"
The host couldn't hold back his laughter, which carried far through the microphone.
The audience got impatient.
"What's wrong with you as a host? Your professional skills are terrible, get off the stage!"
"Get down! Get down! Don't waste time, let the performers announce it themselves!"
The host walked off the stage with a smile, while Zhang Heng strode confidently and Zhang Wei walked timidly onto the stage.
The audience started predicting a demise again.
"What are you doing? You're here to perform, but you're all downcast and looking like a ghost. Who wants to watch that?"
"Exactly, you guy in the back, if you really don't want to act, just get off and let that cute girl with pigtails in the front perform by herself!"
……
Zhang Heng showed no stage fright whatsoever, and her words silenced half the audience.
"I'm sorry everyone, my little husband is introverted and we had another argument about his kidneys."
She was completely absorbed in her performance.
"So what if I asked you to give Qiangzi a kidney transplant? He's the one I love so deeply, my white moonlight. If you love me so much, can't you save the one I love?"
Zhang Wei stammered, "But, but I'm a person too, I feel heartache too."
Zhang Heng said nonchalantly, "Can your heart ache as much as mine? If he loses this kidney, he will die."
"If you care about him, why do you torment me day and night in bed?"
"Ha, man, what kind of bewitching drug did you put in your body? It makes me so infatuated."
……
Some words are only suitable for use in books to create atmosphere, and are not suitable for everyday use.
Zhang Heng spoke with an earnest expression, completely disregarding the safety of the people in the audience.
Each audience member half-covered their ears and eyes, afraid of both not hearing clearly and not hearing too clearly.
This was no longer just Zhang Wei's torment, but the torment of everyone present.
"I think I understand why that male actor looked so lifeless when he came on stage. If I were in his shoes, I would have died too."
"If I were to go on stage to perform, I'd die on the spot."
"Aaaaaah! Aaaaah! I can't take it anymore, my toes are raw from scratching!"
"Hey you two on stage, how about you give me some Ghost Coins?"
……
Although everyone was complaining, they all remained seated without leaving early.
