Chapter 353 Combination of "Invisible Wings" and Sketch King + Famous Terriers
January 2003, 1, New Year's Day
Cao Xuan continued to film in the crew of "When a Man is in Love", while Hu Jing returned to Beijing to participate in the first round of Spring Festival Gala rehearsal.

The Spring Festival in 2003 is very similar to that in 2022. New Year’s Eve at the end of January and Spring Festival on February 1st. As early as December, the rehearsal work for the Spring Festival Gala began.

As one of the pillars of the Spring Festival Gala, Cao Xuan can be exempted from the first two rounds or even the first three rounds of rehearsal, of course, the premise is that the program is passed.

Hu Jing, a newcomer, was not treated so well. Even with Cao Xuan's face, five rounds of rehearsals would be necessary.

This affected the filming to a certain extent, but there was no way around it. The Spring Festival Gala meant a lot to Hu Jing, and the crew had to cooperate and make concessions. Fortunately, they were all in the same family and could be coordinated.

Hu Jing left on New Year's Day, and brought an acquaintance with her when she came back on the 3rd. Cao Xuan went up to greet her with a hug.

"Welcome Teacher Zhao."

Zhao Binshan, who was still dressed in a fashionable way in private, took a look around and said, "The environment is not bad, and the location is very good."

"Let's go, let's go to the crew first, my master is here, let's have some seafood tonight."

"Okay, I haven't seen brother Xuejian for a long time, I need to drink some time."

A few people chatted and laughed and went to the film crew. After seeing Li Xuejian, the two old acquaintances chatted about the old days, and Cao Xuan took the time to go to Hu Jing's side, and brushed the dead leaves stuck to the down jacket on the road with his hand.

"How is it? Is the rehearsal going well?"

"smoothly."

Hu Jing glared at her angrily, and complained slightly: "How many people have you called, my good guy, not long after I arrived backstage, half of the people from the Spring Festival Gala came.

Teacher Zhao, Teacher Liu Huan, Teacher Tian Zhen, Sister Sun Yue, Sister Tan, Teacher Peng, Director Kang, and the host, Teacher Ni Ping, came to see me in turn. "

Her mouth was full of complaints, but Hu Jing couldn't hold back her smile any longer.

Thinking backstage of those Spring Festival Gala entertainers who almost regarded her as a "sibling" behind the scenes, they couldn't help but blushed a little.

"It's the first time I went to the Spring Festival Gala, and I didn't follow, why don't you find someone to take care of you?"

Cao Xuan took it for granted, he basically didn't need the contacts he had accumulated in the Spring Festival Gala over the years, and finally his daughter-in-law's last Spring Festival Gala, didn't she have to make a fuss?

"How is the show, what does the director team think?"

"The director gave a very high evaluation. He thinks the song "Invisible Wings" has a good meaning and sounds good."

"Well, that's good. I usually practice more. Although the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala song is an audio fake singing, but the live singing is real. The typhoon should be more stable."

Cao Xuan was relieved, Hu Jing was popular enough, and the song "Invisible Wings" he picked was even more Wang Zhan level.

It can be called one of the most popular songs in 2006, and it can even be said that there is no one.

At that time, Xiao Zhou, Lin Junjie, Wang Lihong, and Master Luo claimed that the four little heavenly kings were all in the limelight. Cai Yilin, Rainie Yang, Fan Weiqi and other new generation queens were all popular, but they were overwhelmed by this song.

To be honest, if Cao Xuan didn't like this song, he would have sung it by himself a long time ago.

As for the original singer Zhang Shaohan, it doesn't matter. Although Boss Cao has a lot of wool, he still has a bit of humanity, and he will definitely pull it if he can.

The popularity is high, the quality of the songs is good, and it’s still lip-syncing. As long as Hu Jing doesn’t put a microphone upside down during the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala, there is basically no problem, and there is a great possibility to shine.

Cao Xuan felt relieved and asked Hu Jing to go back to the hotel to rest and entertain the guest Lao Zhao by himself.

Lao Zhao came here this time as a cameo.

He is different from Cao Xuan, although he is also a big star in the Spring Festival Gala, but because of the different nature of language programs and songs, the rehearsal stage is more troublesome than Cao Xuan, so when preparing for the Spring Festival Gala, he usually stays in the capital.

This time because of Hu Jing, Cao Xuan called Lao Zhao to take care of him, during which they chatted about the movie.

It happened that Lao Zhao had a headache because of the rehearsal, and he planned to find a place to relax for two days, and offered to come over to visit the class as a guest star. With the help of others, Cao Xuan couldn't be pushed out, so he asked a screenwriter to write a scene for Lao Zhao overnight.

It would be a pity for the sketch king to come to play a cameo, and it would be a pity to show his face. If he doesn't find a good one, he will be sorry for Lao Zhao running so far.

That night, Cao Xuan hosted a banquet for Lao Zhao, he drank less himself, and Li Xuejian didn't drink because of his throat.

But Lao Zhao is not a good guy, he is a veteran of the liquor store, he won a car by drinking at home in Lu Province, and two or three people can't drink him.

In any case, although Huang Bo was drunk and lay down in the end, the host and guest enjoyed themselves so much that they waited all morning, and started filming Lao Zhao's cameo scene the next afternoon.

.........

The plot was added temporarily, probably because the male protagonist is interested in the female protagonist, and he started to follow up from the hospital the next day, and saw that the female protagonist was trapped by money, so he planned to help her and asked the female protagonist to come out on the grounds of negotiating debts.

Because he was blocked by a small accident on the way to follow, Cao Xuan lost track of him, and only saw the heroine enter the two-story tube building in front of him, but he didn't know which house it was.

Naturally, he looked at Old Zhao who was sitting on the saddle downstairs, basking in the sun.

Old Zhao changed into old age makeup, his face was simple and honest, like a black soil without a hat.

"Master, where does Ning Ruomei live?"

Old Zhao looked blank, as if he didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

Cao Xuan raised his voice and repeated: "Master, what floor and number is Ning Ruomei's house on?"

Old Zhao looked at Cao Xuan with a simple smile: "Ning what kind of plum."

Cao Xuan frowned, and his voice raised another octave: "Ning Ruomei!"

Old Zhao's expression became more and more innocent, and he yelled as if he heard it: "Ningruo what?"

Cao Xuan gritted his teeth and raised his voice again, almost choking: "Ning Ruomei...cough cough!"

"Oh."

Old Zhao suddenly nodded, and before Cao Xuan's face showed joy, Old Zhao still showed Heitu's simple and honest smile, and made a fatal blow.

"What Ruomei?"

"Okay, old man, if you are cruel, I will find it myself."

Cao Xuan left angrily, the scene is over, and there are still a few scenes for Lao Zhao to follow up.

One of them was that after Cao Xuan and Hu Jing fell in love, they were fighting and fighting, and the old man downstairs couldn't bear the disturbance and ran up to scold them.

"Ning Ruomei, can you two get tired of going home, my grandson is still young."

This can be regarded as filling a hole, pretending to be deaf in the front, and even hearing the private conversations of the young couple in the back, forming a contrasting effect.

Although this passage is borrowed from "Charlotte Annoyance", due to the different plots, it cannot be copied.

"Charlotte's Annoyance" is a joke. The old man played by Zhao Benshan here is actually looking at Cao Xuanliu, thinking that it is a little hooligan pestering the heroine, pretending to be stupid, and warning by the way.

Later, it was discovered that the two knew each other, and Cao Xuan even attended the funeral as the future son-in-law. He was considered a good person, and the old man showed his true colors.

Playing memes is playing memes, and the details and logic still need to be considered clearly.

The old man in "Charlotte's Annoyance" is a passer-by who was found temporarily to watch the excitement. The highlight is a real person and his own overwhelm, which unintentionally creates a good effect.

Lao Zhao's version is a bit different from the old man's. The old man pretends to be a fool and deceives others. Under his simple and honest appearance, there is a certain peasant-style simplicity and cunning. This is Lao Zhao's forte.

Coupled with Lao Zhao's grasp of comedy performances, when he sits there, he doesn't need to act at all, he just wants to make people laugh.

But when the burden is thrown away, the same lines, spoken in a limp tone with a slight Northeast accent, are even more ridiculous than ordinary people.

Even Cao Xuan had to admit that when the two played against each other, Lao Zhao stole all the limelight. In just a few shots, every frame was full of jokes.

Cao Xuan has no doubt that although Lao Zhao has played no more than 5 minutes in total, he is definitely one of the most impressive characters in the whole movie.

This cameo is a real treat and definitely adds to the film's luster.

If it wasn't for the fear that the character would steal the limelight too much and cause the plot to go off track, Cao Xuan would have wanted to arrange for Lao Zhao to act in a scene where the hero is depressed and Lao Zhao comforts him.

"Where did your original hair style go? Young people have to be taken aback."

.........

Lao Zhao played in succession for two days, had a great time playing and playing, and went back comfortably.

The crew also started the second half of the plot, more than 70% of which is the highlight of Cao Xuan, the analysis of being beaten, crying bitterly, talking to himself, and fierce rival scenes with Hu Jing, Li Xuejian, and Ni Dahong.

The high-intensity shooting allowed Cao Xuan to be fully involved in the play for a time, and he took over the role with all his heart. When he was in the most serious mood, he couldn't help crying when he saw Hu Jing.

And in order to be close to the appearance of some released from prison and terminally ill patients, from the second half, Cao Xuan began to lose weight rapidly.

In just half a month, he lost nearly 10 catties. Although he is not sick yet, he is somewhat thinner than normal, and because of the side effects of weight loss, he is weak, which is very helpful for his character status.

As the saying goes, if you are not crazy, you can't survive. Although Cao Xuan's efforts are not considered crazy, they are also a role that he has devoted himself to the most in the past few years.

He originally had good talent and acting skills, but with such dedication, coupled with the fact that his master Li Xuejian was personally on the sidelines, Hu Jing, the biggest rival in the show, was a lover with a tacit understanding and sparks.

Cao Xuan's overall performance status is getting better and better, and the performance of some highlights even surprised Li Xuejian, Ni Dahong and others.

On January 1th, the movie "When Men Are in Love" wrapped up. At the wrap-up banquet, Chen Kexin looked at Cao Xuan, who had a crew cut and lost a lot of weight, and gave his evaluation again.

"Cao Sheng, among the male actors under the age of 30 in the entertainment industry, you are the best actor I have seen."

Perhaps realizing that Cao Xuan didn't take his evaluation seriously, he added a special sentence: "I'm telling the truth."

"What about singing?"

After the scene was finished, Cao Xuan, who also came out of the scene, asked with a smile, and Chen Kexin gave him a thumbs up.

"You are the most powerful in the entire Chinese music scene."

"Hahaha."

The most powerful but not the best, Cao Xuan didn't know whether Chen Kexin was playing tricks, but he still raised his glass with him.

"This cooperation is a pleasure. I have the opportunity in the future. I hope to continue to cooperate with Director Chen."

"Me too, I wish Cao Sheng a big hit at the box office."

"Boom at the box office!"

　The new group added more than 600 people a day. There are too many people, and there may be omissions. Those who did not enter can add it again. The answer to enter the group is [Cao Xuan], don’t answer randomly, the system will reject it
　　There are still a few that were not included because the account was risky, hope you understand
