  Chapter 283【283】Interlude of Spring Festival Gala rehearsal

  As a gala with a unique meaning, CTS Spring Festival Gala is one of the most important projects of the entire TV station every year. Basically, this year’s Spring Festival Gala is finished, and preparations for next year’s Spring Festival Gala will begin soon.

In the era when TV programs were still relatively scarce, the Spring Festival Gala was the most anticipated TV program for many people. Since then, with more and more TV programs and other reasons, everyone’s expectations and ratings have gradually decreased. .

However, even so, the Spring Festival Gala still has a level of attention that other shows cannot match. Basically, this year’s Spring Festival Gala has just ended, and there will be various rumors about next year’s Spring Festival Gala, including the director team, the lineup of hosts, and who is going to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, etc. Wait.

Today’s entertainment circle has reached the eve of the traffic era, probably due to policies similar to the development of martial arts novels, the threshold for the Spring Festival Gala, at least for entertainment stars, is still very high, so even if it is only revealed that someone has received an invitation to the Spring Festival Gala , can make fans excited for a while.

I don’t know if it’s better to keep it secret this time, or because Zhang Yang didn’t take the initiative to publicize this matter. The news about his participation in the Jiaxu Nianhua TV Spring Festival Gala appeared relatively late. A star, such as Lu Yimo and Wen Bi, was revealed to have received the invitation instead.

It wasn’t until before New Year’s Day that the news that he would attend the Spring Festival Gala of the Jiaxu Year began to appear on the Internet, and it quickly attracted attention. However, even fans, most of them were skeptical of this rumor, and many rational fans even posted posts to appeal to everyone. Stay rational” “Don’t be affected” “This may be another conspiracy by some people against Zhang Yang, it’s a flattery!”

Zhang Yang was dumbfounded, but of course this kind of thing cannot be officially responded to. Later, as the Spring Festival approached, Chu Yu hinted in the fan group that “Little Pacific Fish” was the old leader of Zhang Yang’s fan group. There is no end to the beginning, but because of the rumor that she is a real Bai Fumei, she has always been quite influential. After she hinted, a lot of revelations were added on the Internet, and some people released very vague photos of Zhang Yang going to the rehearsal. Most fans Can’t believe it’s real.

  Only two years after his debut, he will be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. This is the first time in the entire entertainment circle. Naturally, many fans cheered up and said, “You are always embarrassed to sing the old songs at the Spring Festival Gala, right? What about the new album?”

  After the release of the new album, this kind of discussion focused more on the performance repertoire. Most of the speculations were more inclined to the Chinese style, and as for which one, it was not easy to guess.

  As far as Zhang Yang is concerned, the experience of this Spring Festival Gala, at least the experience of the early rehearsal, was not very good.

There is a very interesting phenomenon in making programs, especially entertainment programs, that is, the smaller the audience, the more interesting it is. As the audience increases, the interest of the program will decrease. When the audience reaches hundreds of millions, the entire China When it comes to all the people, for this program, the biggest purpose is no longer fun, but “stability”.

   Looking at it from another angle, the degree of interest is actually inversely proportional to the degree of importance.

  At least in China, no matter which world in China, these two rules apply to most programs. So even though Zhang Yang was mentally prepared in advance, when he actually participated in the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, he still felt like his hands and feet were tied.

  He tried to ask if he could turn on the mic, but he got an affirmative answer. Before he could be happy, he got a supplementary answer: “When you finish singing, I will turn on the mic for you.”

  Wu Tianying, who had a good impression of him, smiled and comforted him: “Don’t worry, I will definitely turn on the microphone for you as soon as possible, and I won’t make you lose your voice when you speak. The on-site director is very skilled.”

  Of course I’m proficient!

Zhang Yang secretly slandered him, but he had expected this for a long time. Although he was very popular, he hadn’t even held a concert yet, and he didn’t dare to expect to be compared with those bigwigs who used to open mics on this stage. Besides, many National-level singers also sing with the microphone closed here, so there is no imbalance.

  He tried to give advice on his own stage performance.

  For example, adding a little interactive link was politely rejected.

   Tried to make suggestions on how to play, but was politely rejected.

   Tried to make suggestions on stage effects, but was politely rejected.

   Tried to suggest clothing, but was politely rejected.

  …

Although Wu Tianying is one of the persons in charge, he is not the top person in charge. Zhang Yang is not only popular, but has also received attention from above. Although it is the first time for him to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, his program has attracted much attention. After singing “Lanting Preface”, the performance form and stage effects have undergone many internal discussions.

  There have been many discussions, and there are many alternatives. For example, there are only three forms of appearances discussed—all singers appear in these three forms, and Zhang Yang’s decision is to come up from the bottom.

Zhang Yang wants to do these details well, but what is good, he naturally does not have the confidence to say “what I said is better than what you said”, so he has no objection to this, and Chen Youyi, the director in charge of singing and dancing, has a good opinion of him. This show obviously also attaches great importance to the stage effects and props.

   It wasn’t until after the first program review that Zhang Yang realized that Director Chen, who was in charge of singing and dancing programs, seemed to be really dissatisfied with himself.

It’s not that his show was banned. On the contrary, not only was there no less, but more in the end. After some shows were killed, a certain well-known singer made some remarks in public, and the show was undoubtedly cancelled. After the program was adjusted, more than two minutes were freed.

  After the director team discussed the two minutes, the final decision was to leave it to Zhang Yang and add another song to him!

   This was an unexpected joy, and the song was also finalized by the director team. He and Feng Shaoang sang “A Man Should Be Self-improvement” to show the spirit of “self-improvement”.

The program arrangement is that he will go on stage first and sing “Lanting Preface”. After singing, Feng Shaoang will go on stage and the two will sing together. Zhang Yang felt that he was a bit silly standing on the stage waiting for someone after singing, and suggested that he could sing after singing. Go beat the drums so the transitions are more coherent.

  In all fairness, this proposal was very good, and the on-site planner also expressed his approval, but it was rejected by Chen Youyi again, and this time he was not tactful, and just said “no need” and dismissed it.

  Chen Youyi is a director of singing and dancing. Unless she finds the three chief directors of the Spring Festival Gala, she can only obey. For this detail, it is obviously unnecessary, but the attitude of the other party really makes Zhang Yang a little depressed and confused.

  Although Zhang Yang’s proposal was rejected, Chen Youyi still carefully arranged and planned the program. The stage, props, and accompaniment were all arranged with great care.

  Chen Youyi is the director of a song and dance show. He has credit for a good show, and he can’t escape if the show is bad. Therefore, Zhang Yang can understand his seriousness and responsibility for the show. But if that’s the case, his suggestion should be adopted.

   Did something offend him? Or is there any conflict of interest?

  Nan Xue went to collect Chen Youyi’s information on purpose, but found no conflict of interest, and Zhang Yang had no impression of him before, let alone any conflict, which made him puzzled.

  Finally, Wu Tianying, one of the two assistant directors, called him and solved the doubt.

There are many singing and dancing programs in the Spring Festival Gala, but there are quite a few entertainment stars on stage. Although it is not clearly stated above, there is actually an invisible limit for entertainment stars on stage. Chen Youyi originally intended to invite Lu Yimo and Wen Wen The two took the stage and sang together.

   As a result, after Wu Tianying suggested, the final decision of the director team was to invite Zhang Yang, and Lu Yimo and Wen Bi lost the opportunity because of this. After the review, the program was adjusted and more than two minutes were freed. Chen Youyi wanted to invite Lu Yimo and Wen Bi again, but the chief director Wang Haichao felt that there would be too many entertainment stars in this way, so two minutes were given to “A Man Should Be Self-Reliant” “.

   Therefore, Chen Youyi was more or less unhappy with Zhang Yang, which is not difficult to understand.

Zhang Yang finally understood what had happened. For a moment, he didn’t know whether to be proud or depressed. He once again deeply experienced what it means to be involuntary in the Jianghu. In this Vanity Fair, your existence has offended too many people. Benefit.

Fortunately, although Chen Youyi was a little upset with him, she was rational after all, and she was still serious and responsible for the show, and she didn’t intend to intensify the conflict. Apart from vetoing Zhang Yang’s proposal, there was no conflict in other aspects, so Zhang Yang focused on Prepare for rehearsal.

  Before the second rehearsal, he took the time to go back to Qingcheng, stayed at home for two days, and then hurriedly returned to Beijing to participate in the rehearsal.

Apart from the fact that the waiting in the middle still made him feel a little silly, Zhang Yang was quite satisfied with the effect of the whole program. After all, the aesthetics of China TV has always been good, and Chen Youyi’s level is not bad, even if he hadn’t proposed to beat the drums Suggestion, Zhang Yang felt that Chen Youyi would also take the initiative to arrange a transition.

But for now, the overall effect of the two songs is still above the standard. After all, as a popular and popular singer, his appearance can gain a certain degree of favor among young people, even if some other entertainment stars appear in the Spring Festival Gala For those who are not interested, the Chinese style Jialanting Preface can also gain a certain amount of favor and recognition.

   This is probably why Chen Youyi values ​​and takes his program so seriously.

Zhang Yang has collaborated with Feng Shaoang many times. “The Great Wall Will Never Fall” brought this outdated singer of the older generation back into the public eye. After the release of the Cantonese version of “A Man Should Be Self-improvement”, his fame and popularity, and even In terms of personal status, there is a tendency to return to the peak period.

   Even so, he never imagined that one day he would be able to sing at the Spring Festival Gala.

For an old man who has experienced the ups and downs of the world and has no idea about the future, he is more grateful than a young man who has never experienced the shock of reality. The company has been a partner for many years, and he has the urge to sign himself under the name of Zhang Yang’s studio.

Backstage during the rehearsal, I could see many people who could only be seen on TV before. Among them were acquaintances that Zhang Yang had often seen on the Spring Festival Gala since he was a child. He took the initiative to greet people, barely straightened his waist, and gained a lot. He took several group photos and planned to show them to his parents when he got home.

  When he came out, Zhang Yang unexpectedly saw a familiar figure in the audience. Yang Yuting actually ran to the rehearsal scene. She obviously noticed Zhang Yang’s eyes and smiled at him.

In the summer, she said she would come over to “observe”, but now it’s the Chinese New Year, and she hasn’t seen her moving there. Lin Yiran mentioned that it seemed that her elders in her family disagreed, and Zhang Yang didn’t want to ask in detail, so that Lin Yiran would not ask again. Ask: “Do you really want her to move here?”

The rehearsal of the show went well. Zhang Yang returned to the backstage and was talking to Feng Shaoang when he saw Yang Yuting sneaking into the backstage. He looked at her in surprise and confirmed that she was looking for him. He was a little surprised He asked, “Why are you here?”

Yang Yuting was not in a hurry to answer, and first greeted Feng Shaoang and Yan Xixi. Even if it was a rehearsal, the security was not as strict as during the live broadcast, and ordinary people could not enter the CTV studio, let alone she ran to the backstage , Feng Shaoang couldn’t help but feel a little strange, he politely responded to her greeting, and stopped the topic with Zhang Yang first.

  Yang Yuting smiled at Zhang Yang and joked, “Come here and give me some advice.”

“what?”

Although Zhang Yang is not unfamiliar with her, apart from the intersection between Mao and Lin Yiran, in the past two years, he has chatted with her several times on Lingxi, for example, on her birthday, he would still come to him to ask for birthday wishes , and occasionally asked him about the situation with the girl he confessed to at the beginning, as if he was very worried that they would break up.

  Probably thinks that this is one of the few love cases she has seen, and she wants to have a good result so that she can believe in love.

   “What advice?”

Yang Yuting hadn’t answered yet, the chief director Wang Haichao and the deputy chief director Wu Tianying seemed to be passing by, looked this way, then walked into Zhang Yang’s lounge tacitly, first greeted Zhang Yang, and praised the The rehearsal went well, but the eyes were obviously looking at Zhang Yang.

Both of them had obviously received some instructions, and they probably vaguely guessed Yang Yuting’s identity. It was no coincidence that they came here now. Zhang Yang was thinking whether to “explain” Yang Yuting’s identity. After all, she came here despite not being a performer. Backstage, Yang Yuting greeted the two directors by the names he just called, calling them “Director Wang” and “Director Wu”.

Wang Haichao and Wu Tianying didn’t know if there was any taboo, or they were not sure about her identity, they just responded politely with “Hello” without addressing her or asking. It’s a bit strange to make friends when you don’t just see people so casually, but with a slightly cautious attitude.

  Feng Shaoang noticed this and was secretly surprised, while Yang Yuting continued the topic just now in front of the two directors and began to give Zhang Yang advice.

“I was afraid that the handwriting was not good, so I came here to take a look… I didn’t expect the handwriting to be very good, and the singing was also good… Why did you just stand there after singing “Lanting Preface”? During the prelude to “A Man Should Be Self-improvement” Don’t you overdo it?”

   Zhang Yang realized the reason why she came here on purpose. It was a little funny, but also felt a little warm. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Chen Youyi also came over.

Chen Youyi is a newcomer who just joined the director team this year. Whether it is her original position or the right to speak in the director team of the Spring Festival Gala, she is incomparable with Wang Haichao and Wu Tianying, and she also knows that Wu Tianying seems to value Zhang Yang quite a lot. I heard that the two The chief and deputy chief directors came over in a hurry, so they also hurried over.

Originally worried that Zhang Yang was young and energetic, and was planning to make some troubles at this time, but he didn’t expect to come, but a strange beautiful girl was “finding fault”. He stood up and quickly took a look at the current situation. Wang Haichao and Wu Tianying also turned looked over at him.

  Chen Youyi immediately noticed the attitude of the two chief directors, a big question mark popped up in his head, and he couldn’t help but thumped in his heart.

   I will never say noon again…

   Try to update at noon tomorrow…
