Chapter 392 The King of Tears in the Spring Festival Gala: Zhao Benshan makes people laugh, Cao Xuan makes people cry

"Talk about a myth, about such a family..."

Cao Xuan sits on the sofa in Cao’s alley, eating melon seeds and watching the cartoon “Legend of Nezha”.

Seeing the cute little pig bear inside, I couldn't help rubbing the head of the Shar Pei at my feet twice, and the other gave him a "real dog" look, squinting and falling asleep.

"No, no, you go back and rest, I'll come with Aunt Zhao."

Zeng Li and Hu Jing, who wanted to be courteous, were driven back to the house by Sun Lan, and they couldn't get angry when they saw Cao Xuan who was leisurely watching TV.

Hu Jing snatched the melon seeds from his hand, Zeng Li broke his Shar-Pei dog from his hand, and criticized him together.

"It's already asleep, what are you doing making trouble about it?"

"Auntie is working, you don't help to pretend to be an uncle here."

"How old are you still watching cartoons?"

"..."

Cao Xuan complained for himself: "I'm not idle. I just helped my dad make fried goods. I just sat and rested for a while, and then I talked about what happened to watching cartoons. It proves that I have a childlike innocence and no time for innocence."

"Pooh!"

Hu Jing spat unceremoniously, and Zeng Li also rolled her beautiful eyes, expressing contempt tacitly.

It doesn't matter to Cao Xuan, he's used to it these two days.

This year, because his parents planned to stay in his hometown for the New Year, Cao Xuan simply persuaded Dongxi Ergong to stay and celebrate the New Year with him on the pretext that SARS was not safe and why he would travel to Europe after the festival.

Unexpectedly, Cao Shuangguo and his wife thought that their son was too lonely in the capital, so they changed their minds and ran back to the capital for the New Year.

Cao Xuan still can't forget the day when the old couple came to Cao's alley to surprise their son with big bags and small bags, and saw the expressions of the three of them eating together.

Not to mention the East and West Palaces, I was so embarrassed that I almost found a crack in the ground and got into it on the spot.

But for the old couple, they are very happy with this scene, and Ninomiya also wants to build a good relationship with his parents-in-law, so he finally decided to celebrate the New Year together.

It's just that when they get along with each other in daily life, it's inevitable that they will be a little embarrassed, and the East and West Second Palace can only vent their anger on Cao Xuan.

It doesn't matter to Cao Daguan, if you can celebrate the New Year together as a family of five, you can just say a few words when you are insulted, and it will be fine when everyone gets used to this feeling.

After fighting for a while, Zeng Li was still a little apprehensive: "Auntie cooks, it's not good for us juniors to sit in the room."

"It's okay, my mother loves you very much, besides, Aunt Zhao and Xiaoqian are there to help."

Cao's Hutong is a large place, and there are many yards and houses used. Sometimes the three of them don't come back often, so it is inevitable that someone will take care of it.

So in addition to the security guards and a few cleaning staff on the outside, a butler and three nannies were also hired in the core yards to help take care of the collection, clean up the housework and so on.

Whether it's a housekeeper or a babysitter, they are all chosen by Cao Xuan. They are sharp in hands and feet, excellent in skills, honest in character, and strict in speech and eyesight.

Especially Aunt Zhao, the housekeeper, is actually Cao Xuan's mother's best friend, and even some relatives.

She was a soldier in her early years, and she was still a brigade cadre after her recovery. She was a city-level March [-]th red-banner bearer, and she is a well-known woman in ten miles and eight townships.

It's a pity that life is weak by nature, husband is lost in middle age, son and daughter are lost in old age, and there is no one to rely on.

Cao Xuan promised to give her a pension, and was willing to support her only granddaughter to go to school, work, and get married. With Sun Lan's affection, the old lady became Cao Xuan's housekeeper wholeheartedly.

The same goes for the three babysitters. Not only does Cao Xuan cover their food, clothing, housing, transportation and wages, but the family members also get a lot of benefits and care.

On the one hand, it is to win people's hearts, and on the other hand, it is also a bit of a warning.
Cao Xuan's family information, work and lifeline are all in Cao Xuan's hands. If something goes wrong, the whole family will suffer.

Aunt Zhao was born in the army and worked as a grassroots cadre for many years. She has a courageous and shrewd personality, is capable and skilled, and manages Cao's alley in an orderly manner.

The three nannies also have their own unique skills, and all of them are professional houseworkers. Even if Zeng Li is a good wife and mother, they are not as diligent and capable as others in many aspects.

This was originally a good thing, the stronger the ability, the easier it would be for Cao Xuan and the others. A few days ago, the two of them obviously went to Cao's alley more frequently, and Zeng Li reflected that he had been lazy recently.

But usually it's fine like this, but Cao Xuan's parents are here now, and the East and West Palaces want to show off, but they can't do it, and they feel very uncomfortable.

Cao Xuan could actually understand the thoughts of the two of them.

He went to see his mother-in-law, and even mopped the floor, washed the dishes, and brushed his presence. The East and West Second Palace must also want to increase their goodwill in the hearts of the old couple.

You can be free and caring but have no chance to show it. The old couple loves their daughter-in-law so much that they don't want to do any work.

Hu Jing was fine, she had actually experienced this once last year, and it was the first time Zeng Li had been with the old couple for a long time, so she was still a little flustered.

Cao Xuan said a few words of consolation, your character has [-] likes, which is comparable to the sum of Hu Jing and me, your popularity is overwhelming, don’t worry at all, you’ll be fine if you replace me...

After a few words of boredom, Zeng Li was quite curious about the lineup of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

Although there is a principle of confidentiality, but my daughter-in-law doesn't care, she tells everyone she knows, when she hears Mei Ting's name.

Zeng Li was a little emotional: "Tingting will be on the Spring Festival Gala this year, and three of our class will be on the Spring Festival Gala."

"Why? You also want to join, let him write a song."

Hu Jing provocatively said, in fact, she can participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala. Last year's "Invisible Wings" was very effective, and even became the representative program of the 2003 Spring Festival Gala.

And this year, the program group of the Spring Festival Gala increased the number of film and television stars. The popular Xiaohua alone included Mei Ting, Huang Yi, Liu Mei, Chen Hao, Jiang Qinqin, and even a certain Zhao who caused a lot of trouble.

Under such a premise, if Hu Jing wants to go to the Spring Festival Gala, she should not take it too easy.

But the empress of Donggong didn't want to suffer that pain again. In her words, in order to go to the Spring Festival Gala, she was worried throughout the twelfth lunar month, and had to postpone it for several days after the New Year.

Anyway, after going to the Spring Festival Gala, she guaranteed the four little Huadan's cards. She has no desire to go to the Spring Festival Gala again, and just wants to be her own audience in a down-to-earth manner.

It's just that she didn't think it before, but after attending the Spring Festival Gala, she admired Cao Xuan's psychological quality a little bit, which is really not something ordinary people can bear.

"Me? I can't sing well."

Zeng Li shook his head and laughed, while Cao Xuan shaved the stubble on his chin: "But you can sing well, in fact, I really have a song that suits you, why don't you try it next year?"

"Forget it, I can't."

Zeng Li waved his hands again and again, but he could actually see a little emotion on his face. After all, the stage of the Spring Festival Gala was very attractive to many people, not to mention that Hu Jing was on the stage, which was also a stimulus to her.

However, due to lack of singer and stage experience, Zeng Damei was a little unconfident. Although she was tempted, her first reaction was to refuse.

"No hurry, there is still one year left, let's talk about it then."

Cao Xuan didn't try to persuade her. Unlike Hu Jing, Zeng Li didn't have that high demand for the Spring Festival Gala. If she really wanted to go, Cao Xuan would definitely help her, and there was no need to force her if she didn't want to.

Several people chatted about the Olympic baby again. Lao Mouzi took a fancy to several students in Zeng Li's class, which really made Teacher Zeng look good in Zhongxi.

Cao Xuan also had vague impressions of these Olympic treasures, except for Tang Yan, who was that Li Danni, whom he had always mistaken for another Danni.

He even once thought that Lao Mouzi chose the little yellow duck because he was so stimulated by this and "The City Is Full of Golden Armor", so he turned back his aesthetics...

.........

Chatted at home in the morning, and in the afternoon Cao Xuan went to CCTV to participate in the preparations, and also met Xiao Zhou.

As soon as he saw him, Xiao Zhou's assistant took out his camera to take a photo of the two of them, and then fiddled with the computer.

When Cao Xuan saw this familiar scene, his temples twitched lightly: "Isn't it posting a blog?"

Xiao Zhou introduced enthusiastically: "You have more fans than me now, I'll take a look at the popularity and see if I can surpass Sister Fei."

Cao Xuan: "..."

With the explosion of blogs, many celebrities cannot do without their blogs, trying their best to gain popularity and increase fans for themselves.

Cao Xuan is a well-known tool man in the crew of "Embroidered Spring Knife", and he is often photographed as a tool man by Wu Jing and other main creators and crew members to gain popularity.

It was no exception at the rehearsal site of the Spring Festival Gala. Many stars and cast and crew wanted to take photos with him and post blogs to show off.

In fact, this is not new. I used to take photos together, but I used to show off with my friends in private after taking pictures, but now I post them on blogs, showing off on the whole network, and I feel more vanity.

Before Xiao Zhou finished tinkering, Mei Ting hurriedly dragged Chen Hao and Huang Yi from the same show in, and Cao Xuan and Xiao Zhou's eyes lit up when they saw Cao Xuan and Xiao Zhou from the dressing room.

"Boss Cao, let's take a picture together."

As the best friend of the two wives, Mei Ting still has a lot of face in Cao Xuan, and Cao Xuan pulled Xiao Zhou to take a group photo together.

A few beauties are smiling, two heavenly kings, this time the blog has a lineup.

After Mei Ting and the others left, Xiao Zhou didn't stay long, but Cao Xuan's dressing room ushered in an unexpected person.

"Third Master, what's the matter?"

Cao Xuan welcomed Mr. Hou to the inner room, and exchanged a few simple greetings. Cao Xuan saw that the other party seemed to have something to say, so he took the initiative to hand over the words.

"My father and I are destined to be friends, and we have forgotten our friendship. If you have something to say, just say it. I won't look at it if I can help."

"It's not really a big deal."

Hou Sanye rubbed his hands a little embarrassedly: "Originally, I should ask my family to talk about this matter, but I was afraid that you would be too busy to go, so I took the time to block you in the background."

"Understood, it doesn't matter, you say."

"Then let me just say it straight. You also know that cross talk has been in a downturn for the past two years, and the number of the troupe has been decreasing. Many young cross talk actors are in a difficult situation. You are the big boss of a film and television company, and you open so many plays every year..."

Before he finished speaking, Cao Xuan knew it in his heart, and took the initiative to stop the conversation: "Third Master, I understand what you mean, let them come over when the time comes, don't dare to say too much, it's not difficult to play a supporting role for a meal. "

"That helped a lot."

Hou Sanye is very grateful, the cross talk market is struggling, except for those who have already made a name for themselves, newcomers can't survive on cross talk.

So this group of new actors can only go to the countryside to run, act in dramas, sing operas, act in film and television dramas and so on.

As the boss of Fanxing and even Guolan, Cao Xuan is a film and television tycoon in the entertainment industry. His company produces more than 20 dramas every year, or even more.

If he helps out with a word, this group of cross talk actors will get a lot of opportunities, and even hope for Xiaohong.

Hou Sanye is loyal, and he is the head of the Hou family. He takes good care of these new cross talk actors, so he has the cheek to ask Cao Xuan for help.

For Cao Xuan, this group of professional cross talk actors are not bad at acting, and their mouths can shake their burdens, so they can play a clown or a comedy role in the play with confidence.

So Cao Xuan was not at a disadvantage, and happily agreed to the request of Third Master Hou, but he still kept a button.

"But third master, let's talk about ugly words before, use what is appropriate, and don't force what is inappropriate. If there are dishonesty and many things are dealt with, don't blame me for not giving you face."

Although Cao Xuan agreed to help, he still had to put the needs of the TV series first. It was the crew who chose the actors, not the actors who chose the crew.

In addition, there are many small things in the cross talk circle, and everyone is related to each other, so some things should be said first, so as not to be too helpful to cause trouble.

"I understand this, don't worry, if there is someone who is ungrateful and stabbed, I will personally deal with him and kick him out of the teacher's door directly. There is no place for him to eat in the entire cross talk world."

"Sure, give me the list later, and I'll have someone contact them."

"I have it in my text message, and I will send it to you."

Hou Sanye was prepared, and directly sent the edited text message. Cao Xuan took a quick look, and found that there were two very familiar names in the list of less than ten people.

"This is Guo Degang, where have I seen it?"

"He is the host of "Super Big Winner" in Huizhou TV Station. He was doing well on his own, but he offended people there, and he has a bad situation in the capital, so I thought about seeing if there are other opportunities. .”

"See what that means, the third master is quite optimistic about him?"

"He is indeed a good boy. I am thinking about studying him for another year or two and accepting him as an apprentice."

"Third Master is right. Since he has hosting experience, I remember that "Boys and Girls Rush Forward" lacks an outfield host. If he's okay, I'll give him a try later."

"Great, I'll let him get ready."

Hou Sanye was very happy. Among these few people, Guo Degang was the one he valued the most. Now he is being supported by Cao Xuan and has a bright future.

What's more important is that Cao Xuan read the list, and reused one without saying a word, obviously to give him face, Hou Sanye felt that he had a good face.

Seeing off the third master, Cao Xuan looked at the little black fat man and the little white fat man on the list, and inexplicably felt a bit of pleasure.

oh~
Cao Xuan couldn't help shivering, why did he put the word "nurture" on the two of them, if he wanted to raise him, he had to raise Liu Tianxian or Da Mimi...

.........

The preparations for the day were over, and the next day was New Year's Eve, Cao Xuan bid farewell to his parents and two daughter-in-laws, and headed to the CCTV building.

This year is the sixth time for Cao Xuan to participate in the Spring Festival Gala. Apart from the gangsters, he can already wrestle with many regular guests.

But does Cao Xuan intend to break the record? As Hu Jing said, going to the Spring Festival Gala is actually torture.

Even though Cao Xuan has a strong mental capacity and is used to this kind of pressure, he still feels tired sometimes.

Cao Xuan set a goal for himself. After the number of Spring Festival Gala reaches double digits, he will consider whether to stop for a year or two, or simply bid farewell to the Spring Festival Gala stage.

After all, at that time, he probably didn't need the citizenship of the Spring Festival Gala much, and there was no need to fight this hard-working stage.

But it's still too early to say that, at least until 2010, he will not consider this matter.

After putting on make-up, Cao Xuan quietly waited in the background. This year, his shows are scheduled very early.

The opening song and dance, the host's opening remarks, and then a group of crosstalk led by Hou Sanye, followed by a song and dance and Feng Gong's crosstalk.

Cao Xuan's program is ranked just behind Feng Gong, and it can be regarded as the fifth program of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

At about 8:[-] p.m., Feng Gong’s cross talk ended, and the host Ni Ping and Zhu Jun appeared together.

"In the spring of this year, the people of the whole country suffered a severe test..."

"Under the leadership of the Party Central Committee, the people of the whole country worked together to overcome all difficulties and finally defeated SARS..."

"In this battle, all medical workers bravely fought against the disease, guarding our safety and health like angels in white, but they themselves sacrificed a little on their posts..."

"Please listen to the song "Borrowing the Moon" and pay tribute to all the medical staff, soldiers, volunteers, staff, family members and people who fought against SARS!"

The lights in the venue were dimmed, and there was a faint white light in the upper right corner, like a bright moon. Cao Xuan walked slowly to the front of the stage.

It was because of the reports on SARS by the official media such as "News Lianbo" that audiences who had an impression of the Spring Festival Gala "The Sea of ​​Stars" in the past two years understood what was going on.

It is still a short film combined with a live broadcast performance, and the combination of the two parties contributes to an audio-visual feast.

The clip of just ten seconds highlights the seriousness of SARS at that time. The next scene is a large number of medical workers and soldiers swearing to the front line to fight the epidemic, and their family members and colleagues bid farewell in tears.

Husband sends wife, wife sends husband.

Children send their parents, parents send their children.

Scenes of parting in life moved countless viewers in front of the TV. At this time, Cao Xuan's magnetic singing finally sounded.

"Farewell to Gentle Country

go ahead

I understand your ambition
High mountains and long waters

Inevitable ups and downs

I hope you never forget

......"

Buses drove to the front line one after another, figures in protective clothing rushed to the wards, and volunteers and staff wearing armbands checked and audited.

A letter of invitation to fight with countless fingerprints on it suddenly appeared on the screen, followed by two, three, four, and countless sheets, densely packed across the entire screen.

Those blood-red fingerprints seemed to be the psychology of all the audience, which instantly made people cry.

In the next second, there are two numbers made of flowers, representing the total number of deaths from SARS and the sacrificed medical staff and staff.

At the same time, names and photos flashed by, Fan Xinde, Ye Xin, Deng Lianxian, Chen Hongguang, Wang Jing...

A round of bright moon appeared slowly, a group of figures walking towards the backlight, Cao Xuan's voice raised, trembling faintly.

"Bright moonlight
I want to invite you to appreciate

It's a pity that we are separated

just borrow this moonlight
look at you again

no matter the weather
I keep watch for you
......"

When the phrase "It's a pity that the world is already apart", combined with the black and white photos in the short film, whether it is on the scene or in front of the TV, countless people burst into tears on the spot.

Before that, SARS was just a special period for most people, and those rising numbers were just a number.

But at this moment, everyone may understand that it is not a number, but every living person.

They have parents, children, and partners, but they stand up resolutely at critical moments.

How can there be any quiet years, but someone is carrying the weight for you to move forward...

After most of the song, the short film ended, and the camera turned back to Cao Xuan on the stage.

He held the microphone, his voice changed from high to low, and finally he sang softly in an almost whispering voice.

"Let the moonlight
light your way back
there are too many words

talk to you slowly

......"

After singing the song, Cao Xuan bowed deeply. This bow was not towards the audience, but towards the bright moon on the stage, and the audience applauded thunderously.

The Spring Festival Gala program group, which has always raced against time, abruptly stopped at the scene of Cao Xuan bowing for 5 seconds before turning to the audience.

At this moment, the audience of the Spring Festival Gala always showed extremely strong emotional fluctuations. Everyone wiped their tears and applauded at the same time.

Just like Cao Xuan, the applause may be due to the song, but more of it is directed at the bright moon.

After Cao Xuan's show ended, the audience recovered after two or three shows, but they still felt a little sad and complained.

"This is really Cao Xuan, who is celebrating Chinese New Year, but makes us cry every now and then. This is the first time."

It's no wonder that someone on the Internet nicknamed Cao Xuan "The King of Tears in the Spring Festival Gala". In most of the Spring Festival Gala in recent years, it was Zhao Benshan who made people laugh, and Cao Xuan made people cry...

　This one is a little less than a few hundred words, I will add it tomorrow
