| [00:01.78] | CHAPTER 2 THE DIRECTORS OF THE OPERA HOUSE |
| [00:08.35] | The Opera House was famous， |
| [00:11.04] | and the directors of the Opera House were very important men． |
| [00:16.17] | It was the first week of work for the two new directors， |
| [00:20.40] | Monsieur Ar mand Moncharmin and Monsieur Firmin Richard． |
| [00:25.65] | In the directors' office the next day， |
| [00:28.70] | the two men talked about Joseph Buquet． |
| [00:32.58] | 'It was an accident，' Monsieur Armand said angrily． |
| [00:37.39] | 'Or Buquet killed himself．' |
| [00:40.34] | 'An accident？…Killed himself？' |
| [00:44.20] | Monsieur Firmin said． |
| [00:46.34] | 'Which story do you want，my friend？ |
| [00:49.37] | Or do you want the story of the ghost？' |
| [00:53.34] | 'Don't talk to me about ghosts！' |
| [00:56.19] | Monsieur Armand said． |
| [00:58.07] | 'We have 1，500 people |
| [01:00.61] | working for us in this Opera House， |
| [01:03.43] | and everybody is talking about the ghost． |
| [01:06.77] | They're all mad! I don't want to hear about the ghost, OK？' |
| [01:13.71] | Monsieur Firmin looked at a letter on the table next to him． |
| [01:18.03] | And what are we going to do about this letter，Armand？' |
| [01:22.42] | 'Do？' cried Monsieur Armand． |
| [01:25.19] | 'Why， do nothing， of course！ |
| [01:27.63] | What can we do？' |
| [01:30.31] | The two men read the letter again． |
| [01:32.95] | It wasn't very long． |
| [01:36.02] | To the new directors |
| [01:38.84] | Because you are new in the Opera House， |
| [01:41.66] | I am writing to tell you some important things． |
| [01:45.61] | Never sell tickets for Box 5； |
| [01:48.88] | that is my box for every opera night． |
| [01:53.30] | Madame Giry， the door keeper， |
| [01:56.16] | knows all about it． |
| [01:58.51] | Also，I need money for my work in the Opera House． |
| [02:03.42] | I am not expensive，and I am happy to |
| [02:06.12] | take only 20，000 francs a month． |
| [02:09.44] | That is all． |
| [02:11.06] | But please remember， |
| [02:13.45] | I can be a good friend， |
| [02:15.94] | but a bad enemy． |
| [02:18.79] | O．G． |
| [02:21.99] | 'Don't sell tickets for Box 5! |
| [02:24.99] | 20，000 francs a month!'Monsieur Armand was very angry again．' |
| [02:31.08] | That's the best box in the Opera House， |
| [02:33.53] | and we need the money， Firmin！ |
| [02:35.65] | And who is this O．G，eh？Tell me that！' |
| [02:40.27] | 'Opera Ghost，of course，'Monsieur tirmin said．' |
| [02:45.46] | But you're right， Armand. |
| [02:47.99] | We can do nothing about this letter． |
| [02:50.93] | It's a joke， a bad joke. Somebody thinks we are fools， |
| [02:56.98] | because we are new here． |
| [02:59.53] | There are no ghosts in the Opera House！' |
| [03:04.62] | The two men then talked about the opera for that night． |
| [03:08.52] | It was Faust，and usually La Carlotta sang Margarita． |
| [03:14.61] | La Carlotta was Spanish，and the best singer in Paris． |
| [03:18.36] | But today，La Carlot ta was ill． |
| [03:22.97] | 'Everybody in Paris is going to be at the opera tonight，' |
| [03:26.57] | said Monsieur Armand，'and cur best singer is ill． |
| [03:30.48] | Suddenly！ She writes a letter to us just this morning-she is ill， |
| [03:35.61] | she cannot sing tonight！' |
| [03:38.02] | 'Don't get angry again， Armand，' |
| [03:41.27] | Monsieur Firmin said quickly.'We have Christine Daaé， |
| [03:46.52] | that young singer from Norway． |
| [03:49.26] | She can sing Margarita tonight． |
| [03:51.49] | She has a good voice．' |
| [03:53.92] | 'But she's so young， and nobody knows her！ |
| [03:57.74] | Nobody wants to listen to a new singer．' |
| [04:01.49] | 'Wait and see． |
| [04:03.82] | Perhaps Daaé can sing better than La Carlot ta． |
| [04:07.99] | Who knows？' |
