China Entertainment 1997.

Chapter 393 In 2004, the stars that made big moves frequently.

The song "Borrowing the Moon" is a song created during the anti-epidemic period of later generations. It is mainly aimed at the medical workers who went to the front line to fight the epidemic at that time.

Later, this song really went out of the circle because of the theme song of the TV series "Shanhe Ling".

During the propaganda stage of the centenary of the founding of the party, this song was often used by the official media as the BGM of the video to pay tribute to the memory of the martyrs.

Cao Xuan participated in the Spring Festival Gala this year. From the beginning of the show, two keynotes were set, one was SARS, and the other was Shenwu Going to Heaven. I heard that it was instructed by the leaders above.

The song "Stars and Seas" the year before last was so effective, Cao Xuan would naturally be asked to do certain promotional tasks at certain times.

Of course, this task is not mandatory, it still depends on Cao Xuan's own thoughts, after all, the aspect of proposition creation is not just written, if there is no particularly good work, it is not impossible to use other performance songs.

However, Cao Xuan still accepted the task. After several considerations, he finally chose the song "Borrowing the Moon".

The song "Borrowing the Moon" cannot be regarded as a particularly classic, but it is strong in its ability to express emotions. With the edited short film, the melody and lyrics are very touching.

The party performance is not about releasing an album, the song is to serve the performance, and the priority of the performance is higher than whether the song itself is good or not.

There is no doubt that "Borrowing the Moon" may not be a classic boutique song, but judging from the performance effect, it is very good.

In fact, Cao Xuan also made some upgrades to this song, especially the lyrics, and made some changes.

The original version of the lyrics is actually a little far-fetched, and the words are too simple, and many places even rhyme for the sake of rhyming.

Cao Xuan has worked hard for so many years, but now his professional ability is very good.

Now even if he is asked to create an original song, I dare not say how classic it is, and the medium level is completely fine.

If you are a tailor, do a little splicing, and even have a high chance of making a small hit.

Therefore, for some classic songs, Cao Xuan may not have the guts to modify them, but for many relatively weak songs, it is still no problem to change the lyrics and melody.

Besides, Cao Xuan also has a group of friends who are big names in the music industry. Everyone can discuss it. This is a very common thing in the creative process, and people will not doubt it.

Cao Xuan is personally satisfied with this performance. Although the song may not be ranked in his previous Spring Festival Gala, the effect of the performance can definitely compete for the forefront.

The wharf that should be worshipped had already been worshipped, and Cao Xuan went home early after the performance. Cao Xuan didn't stay in the backstage of the Spring Festival Gala, and chose to go home directly.

Unlike last year when I went home with Hu Jing and was ignored by my parents, this year Cao Xuan went to the Spring Festival Gala alone, and everyone else stayed at home, and the treatment he enjoyed was completely different.

Donggong helps to change clothes to keep warm, and Xigong holds hot tea to drive away the cold!
Sun Lan smiled from ear to ear looking at the amicable and sweet young couple, and Cao Shuangguo also frowned. It was clear that Comrade Cao was very satisfied with the scene in his heart despite his distaste.

However, Cao Xuan himself knew that although the East and West Palaces were virtuous, they were not virtuous enough to serve him together.

If there is only one person here, there is still hope. If two people are present together, at most one can help, and there will never be two people scrambling to serve.

Mr. Cao hasn't let the East and West Palaces get so obsessed with it, and it's a shame not to have the two together...

The reason why he cooperates so much today is probably for the old couple to watch. Of course, there is also a certain reason because he was moved by his performance.

Anyway, he saw that Zeng Li and Hu Jing's eye circles were a little red, and when he asked, he was moved by the song "Borrowing the Moon" he sang just now.

It wasn't just the East and West Second Palace, Sun Lan also cried. Cao Shuangguo was really embarrassed to cry in front of his two daughters-in-law, so he reluctantly stopped.

Comrade Cao Xuan also corrected and criticized Cao Xuan's performance: "The intention of this song must be good, but after all, it is Chinese New Year, and it is still a happy song for the whole time. It is not auspicious to return to the Chinese New Year to make people cry. "

"Indeed, isn't your original song "Gong Xi Fa Cai" very good, next time I will sing a festive one."

Sun Lan also expressed her support, especially during Chinese New Year in their hometown, especially the first day of the new year.

No crying, no quarreling, no anger, and no negative emotions. Some extreme families are not even allowed to take medicine when they are sick on the first day of the new year.

That being said, a bad start for one year will continue in a similar negative state for the next year.

Especially the older generation, they are more taboo about this. Although the Spring Festival Gala is on New Year's Eve, the chances are not that great, but after all, it is not good to make people cry at the New Year's Eve.

"I will try my best."

Cao Xuan did not give an accurate statement. In fact, judging from the performance of the Spring Festival Gala in the past two years, relatively sad songs are more impressive.

A happy song.Although it is appropriate to the time, there are too many similar songs in the Spring Festival Gala, let alone a large number of language programs.

In terms of bringing laughter and joy to the audience, no matter how well the songs are sung, it is difficult to compare with other people's sketches.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Cao Xuan took a different approach. Although it caused a lot of trouble, whether it was "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", "The Sea of ​​Stars", or last year's "When You Are Old", every year gave The audience has a very deep memory.

Of course, a large part of the reason here is that the quality of the song itself is excellent, and Cao Xuan's singing is also good.

But it cannot be denied that on the peaceful stage of the Spring Festival Gala, a song with a sad tone came, which is absolutely unique, unique, unique, and once a year...

Even now, [Spring Festival Gala Tears King] has a faint meaning of Cao Xuan's Spring Festival Gala label. Although Cao Xuan is unwilling to be labeled to death, he will not give up his reputation easily.

But next year it would be nice to have a normal song, otherwise it will keep making people cry, and some people might not dare to watch it during the Spring Festival, so we can delay the audience for a year or two, wait for them to relax their vigilance, and then make a big move.

Beautiful!
Cao Xuan picked up a dumpling, his eyes were full of mischief, and the East and Second Palaces who knew him looked at each other, and began to wonder who would be tricked by Cao Daguan again.

.........

Cao Xuan came back early this year, and finally he was able to enjoy the New Year’s Eve dinner and watch the Spring Festival Gala comfortably with his family.

The program of this year's Spring Festival Gala is not bad overall. The biggest highlight, apart from Zhao, Cao and other regular guests of the Spring Festival Gala, is that there is a song combination program.

There are three groups of singers in this program, one group is XX and Adu who has become popular in the past two years, the second group is Xiao Zhou, and the third group is Hong Kong and Taiwan big names Qi Qin and Karen Mok.

In terms of lineup popularity and celebrity status, this show can be ranked in the top three in this year's Spring Festival Gala.

In fact, it is equivalent to the big names in Hong Kong and Taiwan that must appear every year, but it is just a series of programs.

What is more eye-catching is that through this program, XX announced that the previous turmoil had been resolved. After all, the Spring Festival Gala was held, which has proved everything.

In fact, this matter was very lively on the Internet. Many people expressed doubts, and some people picked up wild information. The "Four Young Masters in Beijing" who are deeply involved in the entertainment industry have also gradually surfaced.

Of course, this name has not yet started to be called, but some people involved have already started to gain fame and become active in the gossip lace.

Cao Xuan always eats melons when he has nothing to do. Sometimes he really doubts whether this group of people have been praised by others. They are not smart enough to dare to have any nicknames.

What is the family background of the four young masters in the capital of the Republic of China, and what is your family background? I really don’t know the heights of heaven and earth.

Cao Xuan is now worth nearly [-] billion yuan, and he can even enter the top ten on the Forbes list of the mainland's richest people. He doesn't even dare to be the richest man in the streets of Beijing...

The capital is big, and it's not easy to live in. The water here is deep inside and out. If you think it's beautiful, it may be a joke in the eyes of outsiders.

But although it's nothing in front of the big guys, it's enough to pick up girls in the entertainment industry. After all, not every celebrity can make money like Cao Xuan. A drop of hundreds of thousands or tens of millions will make many people confused.

So-and-so got rid of the bottom line, and on the other hand, Xiao Zhou appeared in the Spring Festival Gala this year, even a bit like replacing the big names in Xiangjiang in the past.

This also formally marks his status and influence as the Chinese Heavenly King, which has been recognized by mainland CCTV and other officials, and Xiao Zhou's Chinese Heavenly King status has since been settled.

The Spring Festival Gala is so good now, it is directly related to the popularity of popular Hong Kong and Taiwan singers in the Mainland, and only by attending the Spring Festival Gala can they be regarded as truly out of the circle in the Mainland.

However, Xiao Zhou went to the Spring Festival Gala this time, all kinds of campaigns, and an online vote of 200 million, but the program he produced was really not satisfactory.

The song "Dragon Fist" is not bad, but it is not suitable for the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.

This is a platform for all audiences of men, women and children across the country, so popular songs must have popular and popular attributes, and take care of audiences of most age groups as much as possible.

Rap songs like "Dragon Fist" are not liked by many young people, let alone middle-aged and elderly people. They have no idea what this young singer is doing, and it is almost equivalent to screaming.

Cao Xuan glanced at the bewildered old couple Cao Shuangguo and Dong Ergong, who also didn't catch a cold, and had to admit that Xiao Zhou's performance at the Spring Festival Gala for the first time might not have a high reputation.

There is one thing to say—you can’t blame Xiao Zhou, after all, Xiao Zhou is not Cao Xuan, he can choose the program freely, and even Cao Xuan, the program must pass the assessment of the director team of the Spring Festival Gala.

So Xiao Zhou chose "Dragon Fist", a song that is not suitable for the Spring Festival Gala, and the director team of the Spring Festival Gala must bear part of the responsibility.

Based on Cao Xuan's understanding of the director team of the Spring Festival Gala, it is actually not difficult to guess their psychology. They probably think that Xiao Zhou's fans are young people, and inviting him to the Spring Festival Gala is also to attract young audiences.

This way of thinking is actually correct, but the key is that Xiao Zhou is not an ordinary singer.

Xiao Zhou is the new king of Chinese language, he is in the limelight, and countless people are staring at him. To a certain extent, the pressure on him this Spring Festival Gala is even more serious than Cao Xuan.

Therefore, if he wants to erase the voices of the outside world, he needs to come up with a perfect answer sheet. Once there are shortcomings or the presentation effect is not ideal, various disputes and doubts will come.

It can be predicted that after "Dragon Fist", Xiao Zhou will usher in a new wave of public opinion pressure.

Regarding these, Cao Xuan can't help him, and he can't help him. Even his previous Spring Festival Gala shows were not liked by everyone, and there will be similar accusations and criticisms every year.

"Sea of ​​Stars" is considered to have the best reputation, supported by various official media, but there are still quite a few public figures and party members on the Internet who follow the rhythm.

So I can only rely on Xiao Zhou to support himself. Fortunately, Xiao Zhou is not a fledgling rookie. His psychological quality has been greatly improved, so it is estimated that the problem is not big.

Xiao Zhou "turned over", and Lao Zhao's program this year is also a bit unsatisfactory.

The program "Water Delivery Worker" has some laughs and tears, and it is definitely a quite classic sketch.

But then again, sketches are mainly funny, and its tone is comedy. Once sensational or preachy is added, more than 95% of them will get points, even Lao Zhao is no exception.

In fact, Lao Zhao and Audio-Technica have worked very hard. Last year's "Heart Disease" had a certain didactic color, but the handling was very witty.

This year's "Water Delivery Man", because it involves the plot and maternal love, and wants to sublimate the emotions, it can only go the sensational route. Even if it goes to the end, it still downplays the overall comedy elements of the sketch.

Of course, even so, "Water Delivery Man" is still the best sketch this year.

But there is no way, who made him Zhao Benshan, who made him the sketch king, and in the past two years, there have been a series of excellent works such as "Selling abduction" and "Selling a Car", which made the audience have extremely high expectations of him, even to the point of being harsh. the point.

Guo Da, Statham, Pan Zi, and Huang Hong can be sensational at will, and the sketches can be non-funny.

But Lao Zhao can’t do it. Everyone has to wait for a year to read your sketches, and you must come up with the best works.

Sometimes Cao Xuan felt sorry for Lao Zhao, and at the same time he felt sorry for himself.

Although the Spring Festival Gala audience's demands on him are not as high as those of Lao Zhao, they are actually quite high.

Other singers with a score of 80 are excellent, but his score of 80 can only be regarded as a pass, and everyone will be satisfied with a score of 90 or more, otherwise it will be a warning of "exhaustion of talents".

Hearing Lao Cao muttering that this skit was not funny, Cao Xuan secretly made a decision.

If he still goes to the Spring Festival Gala after 2010, then he will not do it until Lao Zhao bids farewell to the Spring Festival Gala one day at the latest.

Now that there is old Zhao at the front, there is more or less a balance, without old Zhao, everyone will look at him, the pressure is too great, don't make this sin...

After watching the Spring Festival Gala, the family went back to their respective houses to sleep. This time, Sun Lan did not dare to lock the door like last year.

After all, if one is locked, the other can't make trouble. She is tempted to lock both of them in, but she is afraid that the three of them will fight, so she can only give up.

.........

When he got up the next day, Cao Xuan went to various houses to pay New Year's greetings, and the stamina of the Spring Festival Gala began to show.

As Cao Xuan expected, "Dragon Fist" and Xiao Zhou were dissed by various media and experts, and Lao Zhao also received some criticism, and Cao Xuan was no exception.

After all, from the perspective of the song itself, the song "Borrowing the Moon" is of a low standard in his previous Spring Festival Gala shows. Some people said that this song is not as amazing as last year's "When You Are Old",
However, there are not many similar voices, mainly due to the subject matter and intentional trickery.

With the banner of paying tribute to the medical staff and staff who fought against SARS, this song comes with a golden body, and once again, like "Stars and Seas" the year before, it was praised by various official media.

At the same time, Cao Xuan also got a wave of goodwill from medical workers. Many medical workers expressed their love for this song and their gratitude to Cao Xuan on the Internet.

In the future, when he gets sick and goes to the hospital for an injection, the nurse should be gentler...

The song "Borrowing the Moon" also rushed to the top of the music charts in just one day. On the one hand, it is the influence of the Spring Festival Gala, and at the same time, it is also the popularity of Cao Xuan himself.

As No.1 in the Chinese music scene, No.1 in the Asian music scene, and the world's pop king, Cao Xuan's influence in music today is very terrifying.

Let's put it this way, Cao Xuan can sing a song casually now, and he can make it popular with his super popularity and fan base.

Even if it is "Ximen Qing's Tears", many people think that this song is sung well.

There are even little experts in reading comprehension, analyzing whether there is any deep meaning in the lyrics, and whether behind the popular saliva songs express Cao Xuan's disdain for the feudal society and his appreciation for free love...

This is the world's king-level influence. Any song sung by him will be covered with a halo. The only difference lies in how popular the song is and how long it will last, and it will not be unknown.

However, Cao Xuan doesn't care about whether "Borrowing the Moon" is popular anymore. After the New Year's greetings are over on the third day of the Lunar New Year, Cao Xuan is planning to travel abroad with Dongxi Ergong.

Originally, he wanted to bring his parents with him, but the old couple didn't want to disturb their three-person world, so Cao Xuan had no choice but to be "unfilial".

The trip to Europe lasted for half a month. They first went to Northern Europe, saw the aurora, and then tried skiing and going to sea. Because they were not satisfied, the three of them went to the Alps and surrounding countries to appreciate the local scenery and people.

During the period, Cao Xuan found time to watch a Manchester United game and a Milan derby. Finally, the three of them went to the Champs Elysees in Paris to make a lot of purchases and returned with a full load.

This half month was the most relaxing time for the three of them in recent years.

Except for Cao Xuan who made a certain disguise, the East and West Second Palace did not have to worry about revealing their identities and relationships and attracting onlookers like in China, and they could play as they wanted.

The relationship between the three also went further, especially on that night in Iceland, when Cao Xuan rented a yacht to see the aurora, and it happened that there was only one "bed" on board.

It was cold at night, although there were measures to keep warm, it was still a bit cold. Under Cao Xuan's coaxing and coaxing, the three of them squeezed into one bed and slept all night.

Although Cao Xuan didn't succeed in the end, it was the first time the three of them slept together overnight, which was already a huge improvement.

Moreover, Cao Xuan also charged some interest during the period, hugging left and right, doing hands up and down, so happy.

Of course, there is a price behind such coolness. Even after returning to China, the bruises on Cao Xuan's body that were pinched that night did not completely disappear.

But Cao Daguan didn't care, half of his long-cherished wish in life was fulfilled, not to mention just a little bit of flesh and blood, even if he lost two pieces of meat, he felt it was worth it.

The three of them returned to China after their holidays, gave away the special gifts they bought, and officially started the new year's work.

Teacher Zeng returned to Chinese opera to attend classes, and went abroad for half a month. She took several days off and had to show up quickly, lest the monkey cubs in the class go to heaven.

The winter scene of Hu Jing's "Two of Us" has come to an end for the time being, and the filming of the summer scene will start, at least after June.

Hu Jing, who had spared half a year's schedule, didn't like the script, so she simply acted as the producer of "Beauty's Scheming".

This is also the highlight of Fanxing Investment this year, with a production cost of more than 2000 million. Compared with the original version, Fuhuadao and related sets and big scenes have been qualitatively improved.

After all, the original version of Dead Girl claimed to be made with a huge investment of 5000 million yuan, but judging by those Fuhuadao and a large number of in-house actors, the actual cost is estimated to be less than half.

At the same cost, but the time is several years earlier, the investment of the two dramas can be easily compared. Even in the current TV drama field, "Beauty's Scheming" can be regarded as an upper-middle production.

It is not an exaggeration to call it a big production, after all, TV dramas with an annual investment of more than 2000 million can be counted with two hands.

Cao Xuan also counted the "Chaoge City" part of Fanxing Film and Television City on the head of the "Beauty's Scheming" crew, claiming to spend hundreds of millions to restore the courtyard of the Han Palace.

In this way, it is not an exaggeration to say that "Beauty's Scheming" is a production of hundreds of millions...

Fan Xiaopang is the heroine Dou Yifang, and Yang Xue plays three roles, all of which are villains, which can be regarded as having enough villain addiction.

Moreover, Cao Xuan recently got online through Emperor and Wang Jing, and he will lead the projects later, such as "No. cast.

As one of the producers, it is not difficult to plug a few actors.

Jiang Yuyan in "Little Fish and Flowers", if there is no accident, will still be played by Yang Xue, and the other two dramas will also have actors from the star system.

To be honest, Cao Xuan once wanted to include Wang Jing, or directly win all his series of martial arts dramas. After all, most of these works have made money and their quality is guaranteed.

But the difference between the two sides is that Wang Jing wants to support Hong Kong people more, while Cao Xuan's request is mainly mainland actors.

If no consensus can be reached in this regard, the cooperation will naturally come to nothing.

If it weren't for the fact that these TV dramas are full of ideas, serious changes, and similar patterns to a certain extent, more than [-]% of the credit is due to Wang Jing's screenwriting team, and Cao Xuan planned to let Fanxing cut him off.

But since you can't cut off Hu, let's cooperate to make money, and praise your family by the way.

Considering that the people in Xiangjiang were not worried, Cao Xuan asked Guolan to come forward and only participate in the investment and not in the production. Otherwise, if there is a disturbance, Fanxing may also be affected.

Back to "Beauty's Scheming", in addition to Fan Xiaopang and Yang Xue, there is also a very important role of Xueyuan, which has not yet been decided.

Liu Tianxian and Dong Xuan are going to star in "Legend of Sword and Fairy", Gao Yuanyuan doesn't want to be Fan Xiaopang's "maid".

Cao Xuan considered whether to take one from the 02 class of Chinese opera, or let Liu Yan take the top, or even find the original big honey to develop.

The role was too small for him to bother, so Hu Jing discussed it with the producer and director himself.

As for the male lead Han Wendi, Yan Kuan of Fan Xing was activated. This is also the first time he has acted as the male lead of Fan Xing's drama, and he is still "Yan Li Praise" in Boss Cao's heart.

The male second Zhou Yafu is played by Duan Long who has just signed a contract. He has played Han Xin and Lu Buwei. He looks good in ancient costumes, not to mention his military temperament.

As for the other roles, Cao Xuan didn't pay close attention to them. Anyway, his own artists are on the show, and other actors don't care. Whether it's supporting newcomers or exchanging benefits, they can't lose anyway.

And 2004 was also a year of big moves by the stars.

In addition to "Beauty's Scheming", there is also "Lotus Lantern" starring Jiao Enjun.

The aforementioned "Legend of Sword and Fairy" starring Hu Ge, Liu Tianxian, and Dong Xuan also started filming this year.

While Qian Yanqiu continues to launch "Swallow Shuangying 3", he is also preparing to launch a new series of TV series "Detective Di Renjie" this year.

There is also the ancient costume love comedy "Luo Shanbo Meets Zhu Yingtai" independently written by Fanxing's editorial department, and the sweet urban idol drama "The Domineering President Falls in Love with Me"

The above are some of Fanxing’s independently produced TV series, in addition to leading and co-produced TV series such as "Wulin Biography" and "Bright Sword".

And there are at least two new movie shooting plans, "Fairy Tale" adapted from the IP of Cao Xuan's song, and the movie "New World" starring Cao Xuan...

Fanxing, which has built a solid foundation in the past two years, is planning to launch more high-quality products within two years, creating momentum, and completely ascending the throne of the leading film and television company in the mainland.
