Chapter 44 The first note
"Nobles are even worse," Curtis shook his head without any discussion. "So, don't be afraid of you making jokes. We who write scripts understand that the subjects that can be written are laughing at and ridiculed ourselves, as well as people who are similar to us - poor people, small staff, female branches, gangsters, smugglers, etc. It is best not to even involve gangsters in the lower city. Porn jokes and making some vulgar jokes are our main means to attract customers."
Speaking of this, Curtis was really blushing. Speaking of it, he was the boss and artist of the troupe... In fact, half of the people in the troupe rely on part-time jobs, and the other half needed to sell their appearance to maintain their lives and the troupe operation. But there was no way. If the truth in this article was not explained thoroughly, he was really worried that the elf boy in front of him would ungratefully. "Better to this Shakespeare, he is this, and we are this." He compared the posture of heaven and earth.
"Why? I told you a real thing, it happened to me. Two years ago, I wrote a script about a nobleman and his mistress. Because no one had written this topic, I happened to read it a lot and it was easy to write it. And you know, there are many plots inside... cough cough, and it looks quite exciting! The troupe reads the script very exciting, and I couldn't bear to give up, so I rehearsed it and performed several times at midnight, and it was full of events!
However, since then, our nightmare has come! Several actors in the performance, plus me, have been assassinated more than a dozen times in a row in a month! What do you think? Because the nobles in the city think we are all insulting him and are eager to send someone to silence us... In fact, who did I allude to? I didn't even suggest anyone, I just wrote a story casually!"
Speaking of this, Curtis smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Since then, the theater has retracted the script. Those who involve nobles must not do it, but we can't do it like you, who hurt innocent businessmen, so the theater will be hanging alive..."
Speaking of this, Milton and Lizard Head were speechless for a moment. They both remembered many things that happened to them, and they felt deeply the same. Curtis only said the tip of the iceberg. If this world was not so fucked, why would they rather be deserters and treason than build their own village!
Shen Yan didn't know how to persuade these people - this world has been in the medieval stage of the earth for too long, but it has no intention of moving forward at all. Not to mention the budding bourgeoisie, due to the blockade of knowledge and the complete monopoly of personal force, the aristocratic class rule in this world has an increasingly strong tendency. Because muskets cannot turn over the knights, money cannot buy power, and a huge fortune is plundered with one special tax, only personal force is eternal.
Rules traditions are replacing the law, and the conservatives have become the eternal backbone of the kingdom. Not to mention, there are the gods standing behind them... watching all new forces vigilantly, and nipping them in the bud at any time.
"Actually, it's your fault." Shen Yan thought for a while and said with a knife. "To put it bluntly, you still can't let go of the capital's bright lights and wine. You would rather roll in the mud pit than stay away. You still have fantasies in your heart, such as fantasizing that a big man came to the troupe and was extremely grateful for your talents, and from then on, soared into the sky and even entered the palace... Am I right?
Also, if you mess with those noble women, you actually have the idea of what if you encounter a chance to speculate, right?"
Curtis raised his head in surprise, not because Chen Yan said it wrong, but because they were all right. Milton and Oma also looked at Chen Yan with surprise expressions, and then they suddenly realized... I'm afraid that several people would not understand Chen Yan's secrets together, after all, what is that.
"So, you are just the silhouette of Tusen. The king capital is already a pool of stagnant water and the order is strict. If you are trying to make a bird in it, you might as well be a real bard. Don't go to big cities and villages to travel around the villages and pass on the stories you wrote first! When you are famous all over the world, you are still afraid that you will not stand in the palace..." Chen Yan stopped here. He suddenly realized that this was what the chairman said, "the countryside surrounds the city"!
After three years of graduation, I found that the most useful thing was politics among the knowledge I learned in school...
Curtis was a little excited by him. Although he was still famous in the royal capital, he actually knew in his heart that even the noble ladies who were in love with him might not look down on him very much! It seemed that if he continued to hang out in the royal capital, he would achieve nothing in the end!
And being a real bard has another advantage, that is, you can say anything and don’t be afraid of taboos. Some local nobles and civilians especially like to listen to the private scandals of the royal nobles. Even if you are wanted, you can change your identities and continue traveling. Without the "critical" that is easy to be caught in the theater, who in the world can catch him!
Oh, except for Chen Yan.
"But... even if the script is well written, it is difficult to promote it." Curtis returned to reality. In the king's capital, his script can still be "art". In the countryside, he basically went to the next three routes, and no one liked to listen to it. Then there were some ancient hero stories, things that had been heard hundreds of times.
"It's okay, I'll help you with this." Chen Yan waved his hand casually, saying that it's not easy to add some pornographic jokes to the story. Is it guaranteed that you are very pornographic and violent, and you can tell the story intact. Isn't modern novels just doing this - "The Book of Monte Cristo's Revenge" without those plots of treasure hunting, showing off wealth, and revenge, who cares about the author's thoughts hidden in it?
"And all you have to do is..." Chen Yan held the shoulders of the flower peacock and turned him in a direction, thinking only about the children who followed the team. "In the short term, we can train more poets who can tell stories. The more people, the greater the impact it will have!"
****
Is it difficult to convince someone?
It is difficult for a graduate to convince Mr. Ma with a PPT; and it is not difficult for Mr. Ma to pour chicken soup on the show to affect the life choices of countless graduates, which is not difficult at all.
The world where Chen Yan is located is in an era where the more knowledge is controlled, the more priceless it is.
Chen Yan himself did not realize that he, who had knowledge of another world, was probably an alternative "rich man" in this world - so his words were particularly convincing. Not to mention asking Curtis to help the convoy organize a minstrel group, even if he created a new cult, it could quickly expand into the scale of disaster to the world.
In the next few days, Curtis did indeed start to select people. His method was unique, which was to play a piece of piano while eating to attract the attention of the children, and then encourage the children to try playing his piano or learn to tell stories. Not long after doing this, he really found a few "talented" people - that is, they should not look ugly, have a sense of music, and have a better memory. These three conditions are:
As for Chen Yan, he was busy stuffing pornographic jokes into Shakespeare's entire work... This behavior that someone knew was destined to be burned to death.
He also "original" a story, Artoria pulled out the sword in the stone, broke it, and the goddess of the lake gave her a broken steel sword. Of course, it was an unexplained myth and legend in ancient times, and could be used as the background of the story. The key is that in modern times, Chen Yan quietly linked the establishment of the three kingdoms in the story with this "breaking steel sword", that is, the sword of the king.
This is a good habit of learning lizard heads, and you always have to patch your own stories!
The prophecy that spread throughout the peninsula was also started by him with half a sentence and turned into "A person holding the sword of the king will definitely unify the peninsula, end the demon tide, dispel the fog, and return to the glory of the empire!" After such fulfillment, even Chen Yan believed that there really was a "sword of the king" on the peninsula, which was faintly visible behind history!
When this story spreads across the peninsula, it is the time when his "king car changes its position" and makes the world famous!
