Chapter 110 Different promotion
The rolling water of the Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure, are all gone. The green mountains are still there, and the sunsets are red several times.
The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter on the riverbank is used to looking at the autumn moon and the spring breeze. They happily meet each other over a jug of wine. Many things in ancient and modern times are laughed at and talked about.
As soon as Inugami opened the book in his hand, he was stunned by the poem at the beginning.
"Inugami-kun! Inugami-kun!" Kujo felt a little itchy when he saw Inugami's stunned look.
Is the book too good-looking or too bad?
If I had known earlier that when I got the book, I should have opened it and looked at it first; even if I am an envoy or deputy envoy, my status in the country is no worse than his.
"The most talented man in Chang'an City, he is indeed well-deserved. The book His Royal Highness the King of Chu gave you must have been written by him, right?" Inugami continued to read the opening poem with a fascinated look on his face. Kujou was curious.
, regardless of all the etiquette, he turned his head to see what was written in the book.
…
Wuheju.
As the top restaurant in Chang'an City, Wuheju has its own dedicated storyteller.
In this era without television, mobile phones, or newspapers, storytellers are almost indispensable for a restaurant.
The level of the storyteller often has a great impact on the restaurant's business.
For a top-notch restaurant like Wuheju, the level of storyteller is naturally second to none in Chang'an City.
"Speaking of the general trend of the world, if we divide for a long time, we will unite, and if we unite for a long time, we will divide. How about it, dear guests, did you feel that there was a majestic momentum rushing towards you from the beginning? Today, little old man, I want to bring you a brand new story, absolutely
Wonderful." Guo Dezhi had dark circles under his eyes today, but he started his first storytelling session with full confidence.
As the most important storyteller of Wuheju, Guo Dezhi is well-known in Chang'an City.
Li Kuan was planning to make Xinhua Bookstore a hit, so he would not miss out on such an important storyteller through the promotion beforehand.
Just like in later generations, before each car manufacturer launches a new car, they will invite various media to go to tourist attractions for test drives, provide them with delicious food and drinks, fully report air tickets and accommodation, and pay a large amount of travel expenses before leaving.
What for?
It’s not just to promote your own products.
These media have many potential user resources. As long as they are recognized, users will naturally be positive when they see news and reports about new cars, and sales will be directly affected.
The role of storytellers at this moment in promoting "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is similar to that of the media in later generations.
Therefore, Guo Dezhi got the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" specially presented by Xinhua Bookstore early the day before yesterday.
Speaking of which, this is the first time Guo Dezhi has received a book as a gift from a bookstore. In the past, bookstores never did any promotion. Anyway, people who can afford it will buy it without publicity, and people who can't afford it will buy it even if it is publicized.
can not afford.
As a storyteller, Guo Dezhi naturally loves books.
As soon as he got "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Guo Dezhi felt the excellent paper and extraordinary texture of this book.
It seems that the printing shop of this book spent a lot of money. Unless it sells for more than ten thousand yuan, it probably won't be able to recover its money.
In the next two days, my life was completely disrupted by this book. I even didn't go to Wuheju Storytelling for two consecutive days, which made the shopkeeper almost fall out with me.
But Guo Dezhi felt that it was all worth it.
"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was so good that he couldn't help but read it in one sitting.
After that, I immediately thought of how to convert it into storytelling materials.
Guo Dezhi is a smart man. He can guess that the storytellers in other restaurants have also obtained this sacred book. In order to transform himself from the top storyteller in Chang'an City to the well-deserved number one storyteller in Chang'an City, he went through the details again overnight.
After reading "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" once, I began to transform it into my own storytelling materials.
"The Seven Kingdoms fought over the weekend and merged into Qin. After Qin was destroyed, Chu and Han fought against each other and merged into Han. I believe everyone is familiar with this story, right?"
Guo Dezhi is very good at interacting with the guests in the restaurant and will not stand there monotonously reading.
"The Han Dynasty revolted and unified the world since Emperor Gaozu killed the White Snake. Later, Guangwu Zhongxing, spread to Emperor Xian, and was divided into the Three Kingdoms. Our story today is called "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"."
"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms? Lao Guo, I have listened to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" you talked about so many times that my ears are almost getting calloused. Can't I change it to something fresh?"
Those who come to Wuheju for dinner are not ordinary people. They have no respect for Guo Dezhi, a star storyteller, and express their opinions directly.
"Yeah, what's so good about "Three Kingdoms"? Let's try another one. The story about the girls of Tianxiang Pavilion is also more exciting than this one."
"Three Kingdoms" was published in the Western Jin Dynasty, and many scholars have read it. Guo Dezhi also adapted several stories in it before. The response was good at first, but after many customers heard it, they felt tired of it.
"Dear guests, the little old man dares to vouch for it today. The story I am going to tell you next will definitely be different from the previous stories in "Three Kingdoms". If you don't think it sounds good, from now on, I, the little old man, will no longer go on stage to tell stories.
Already."
Guo Dezhi didn't pay too much attention to the reaction of the guests. Instead, he responded very hard. This was something he had never done before.
"In the first year of Guanghe, the hen turned into a male. On the first day of June, more than ten feet of black air flew into the Wenxiong Hall. In the seventh month of autumn, a rainbow appeared in the Yutang; the shores of Wuyuan Mountain were all broken apart. All kinds of ominousness were not limited to one end.
…”
An expert will know if there is one as soon as he takes action.
As soon as Guo Dezhi talked about the skill of a cup of tea, the guests of Wuheju felt that today's story seemed a little different, but they couldn't tell what the difference was for a while. In short, it was very comfortable to listen to it.
It’s very refreshing and I really want to continue listening to it.
"The next day, in the Taoyuan, a black ox and a white horse sacrifice was prepared. The three of them burned incense and bowed before saying an oath: I remember Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. Although they have different surnames, they have become brothers and will work together to rescue the poor.
Danger; report to the country, and protect the common people. I don’t want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but I just want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day. The emperor, the emperor, and the emperor have learned this heart. They are ungrateful and ungrateful, and both heaven and man will kill them! After the oath, I worship Liu Bei as my brother, Guan Yu
Secondly, Zhang Fei is my younger brother."
Guo Dezhi picked up the tea bowl in his hand and took a sip of water.
"Dear guests, today's story ends here. It is about the first story of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is called "Three Brothers in the Taoyuan". I predict what will happen next. I'll see you in the afternoon!"
"Ah? Are you done with this? Continue talking?"
"That's right, don't stop right after you say it. It's so uncomfortable."
