Chapter 541 Overnight Fame and Spring Festival Daily Routine
There are many stories about the entertainment circle becoming famous overnight after being transparent since childhood.

Even in the era when the Internet is becoming more and more developed, there are such people every year, and there are even some who are super out of the circle.

These people include melon field representatives, such as Li's ex-wife who killed a certain king, Du Mouzhu who hammered Fanfan, Zhang Mouheng who picked up Shuangzi, Ma Rong who was tied with Jinlian, and Zhou's girlfriend who made Master Luo retire for two years... ...

Most of these people were "amateurs" who were not very well-known before, but with their super big flowers, they became top-notch, dominated various headlines, and provided rich spiritual entertainment to the people who eat melons.

There are also artists who have become popular in a short period of time. With the popularity of a certain work or a period of time, they quickly become the darlings of various media from unknown people.

Gu Miaomiao and Li Yuchun in variety shows in the early years, and Jia Ling in "Run" last year.

In the original time and space, there are also Yang Tianbao, Yang Chaoyue, Basketball Kun, Mou Zhan, etc., who have gained a lot of exposure in a short period of time and have become well-known artists and even top-tier existences.

But even these lucky ones often rely on the accumulation of a period of time, becoming famous overnight is just a proxy for fast popularity.

However, Xiao Shenyang is different, he is a real [overnight success].

In 2009, the average viewership rating of the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala was 42.1%. In the years of the Spring Festival Gala entering the 21st century, the ratings were second only to the 2005 Spring Festival Gala.

其实这几年的春晚收视率一直在下滑，2004年是41.2%，2005年最高是44.9%，之后里面一直保持在30～35%左右。

This is actually not difficult to understand. Now that there are more entertainment life, everyone doesn't have to watch the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve.

If the Spring Festival Gala and local satellite TV dominate the screen, then watch the local TV station. If the local TV station is not good, you can watch DVDs and listen to music. If you can’t play the computer, you will occasionally glance at sketches or popular singers. Lower average ratings.

It is still the last peak period of the Spring Festival Gala and has been able to maintain more than 30%, and the follow-up has been declining, all thanks to the star stage on New Year's Eve to maintain face.

But even so, the ratings of the 2020 Spring Festival Gala are only just over 20%, which is the lowest in the Spring Festival Gala over the years.

In the 2009 Spring Festival Gala, the program with the highest ratings was undoubtedly the skit "Not Bad Money", and the data given by CCTV was 67.4%.

It’s not clear if there is any moisture, but let’s assume that the data is real, and it means that hundreds of millions of people saw this skit at the same time.

For Cao Xuan and Lao Zhao, the huge attention has been insignificant. As long as you watch the Spring Festival Gala, it is impossible not to know about them.

Cao Xuan planned to withdraw from the Spring Festival Gala because his nationality had reached a particularly terrifying level.

In China, except for some special groups and children who don't remember much, it is impossible for ordinary people not to know who Cao Xuan is.

At this point, Cao Xuan no longer cares about whether he will be a nationalist in the Spring Festival Gala, and he even hopes to cool himself down a bit, and even "pass off" earlier.

There is no need to say more about Lao Zhao, maybe his influence is not as good in the south, but even Cao Xuan dare not say that he is more famous in the north.

It's more of a habit and a task for the two of them to go to the Spring Festival Gala now.

Cao Xuan is full of confidence and is ready to quit, while Lao Zhao has a lot of people and wants to stay for a few more years and bring newcomers along the way.

Lao Zhao and Cao Xuan did not lack this exposure, and Maomao, who played the role of Ya Dan, had few brilliant shots due to the role positioning.

Only Xiao Shenyang positioned the core in the skit, not only brilliantly, but also the freshness of the newcomers left a deep impression on the hearts of all the audience who have seen this sketch.

It's not a big deal for one person to leave an impression on him, but if hundreds of millions of viewers leave an impression on him, it will be super popular when added up.

Almost overnight, Xiao Shenyang, whose English name is "Little Damaged", was talked about by countless people, and then became popular all over the country.

There are countless stars who have become popular in the Spring Festival Gala, but Xiao Shenyang can become a representative of them because he became popular so fast and became a mess.

Cao Xuan and Lao Zhao also succeeded in becoming popular after attending the Spring Festival Gala at the beginning of the year, but they were not as exaggerated as his popularity. It took them several times to stabilize their positions.

Those who can compare with Xiao Shen Yang, that is, Fei Xiang and Chen Xiaoer back then, were all popular overnight.

Many people say that Xiao Shenyang is the last "overnight success" of the Spring Festival Gala, but this statement is not absolute.

In the next few years, Xuri Masculine, Xiao Caiqi and others were not low because of the Spring Festival Gala.

But there is no one who can be more popular than Xiao Shenyang. This is definitely the pinnacle of star-making during the Spring Festival Gala.

Of course, aside from Xiao Shenyang, this year's Spring Festival Gala is popular with another person, the magician Liu Qian.

This cooperating with Dong Qing, the King of Tota, contributed an extremely wonderful magic show, and became another rising star in this year's Spring Festival Gala, and his reputation is only lower than that of Xiao Shenyang.

Let's put it this way, in the days after the Spring Festival Gala, when there were hot searches on Weibo, the two of them never came down.

Xiao Shenyang personally or jointly posted 31 hot topics on Weibo, and Liu Qian 19 times.

And Cao Xuan sang "Wanjiang" and acted "Not Bad Money", coupled with his own fame and the promotion of "Save Mr. My", there were only 22 Weibo times in total, which shows how popular the two are.

It's just that I feel sorry for Liu Tianxian and other artists who will be on the Spring Festival Gala this year. They originally thought that they could use the Spring Festival Gala to make their faces.

As a result, there were two supernovas born out of nowhere, Xiao Shenyang and Liu Qian, and then there were big names like Cao Xuan, Lao Zhao, Xiao Zhou, and Cheng Long.

The popularity of this year's Spring Festival Gala was almost robbed by these people, and it was their turn to show their faces.

Da Mimi, who was still a little depressed because she didn't make it to the Spring Festival Gala, burst into laughter in private, and posted several microblogs in a row praising the Spring Festival Gala show.

The skits, cross talk, magic, acrobatics, dance, and songs are almost praised all over the place, but they just ignore Liu Tianxian...

As a result, turning around, Liu Tianxian accidentally "hand slipped" and liked a Weibo post about the poor singing skills of an anonymous Xiaohua who became popular this year. Although it was canceled afterwards, waiting for half an hour was enough for many people to take screenshots up.

Leaving aside the "sisterly love" battle between the two Xiaohuas, Cao Xuan actually cared a lot about the audience's feedback on his first sketch.

During the New Year's greetings the next day, I also browsed the relevant comments on the Internet.

[Very pleasantly surprised, I thought it was a gimmick, but Cao Xuan performed really well]

["Not Bad for Money" can be said to be the best Spring Festival Gala skit in recent years, Xiao Shenyang laughed at me to death, and Cao Xuan's grandpa is also popular]

【Mother Cao and Grandpa Cao, why are they both family members】

[As a fan, I like watching Cao Xuan blackmail the most, I can't help laughing every time]

[Indeed, many of the other celebrities are too serious, Cao Xuan is willing to play with everyone, it's quite interesting]

[It can be seen that he is a very casual person, I heard that he has no airs in private]

[I have worked with Cao Xuan before, and I can’t say that I have no airs, but I do take good care of the ordinary staff. If I have something to ask the person in charge, it is very fierce to start a fire]

[The business is so big, how can it be possible that you have no temper at all, otherwise you won't be able to control people]

[This is good, public is public, private is private, I am also very serious in private, I will let myself go online, play around, it is very interesting]

[Catch me if you violate the style of life, haha, Cao thief really dares to blackmail yourself]

[Quickly go to Cao Xuan Weibo comment area, the one called mother and the one called grandpa are arguing]

【…】

Cao Xuan was silent, and planned to go back and chat with Xiao Ma and the others to see if he could block some sensitive words in his comment area.

In the past two years, the higher the status of Cao Xuan, the fewer people came to pay New Year's greetings in person. It's not because he was arrogant and forgetful, but because it was really inconvenient. Therefore, in many cases, he could only send souvenirs and pay New Year's greetings on the phone.

No matter what happens, there are still a few houses that must be visited, one of which is Master Li Xuejian's house.

This is the case every year, and the Li family will even specially estimate the time and wait. For example, this year, as soon as Cao Xuan arrived in the community, he just got out of the car and saw his junior brother Li Gen.

The little luotou back then has now become a young man in his early twenties. Now he is studying at the Beijing Language and Culture University and is about to graduate.

"Brother, I will carry you."

"No, there are still two boxes in the car, you carry them, so you don't have to run around."

Zhu Jiang opened the trunk and filled Li Gen's hands to the brim. He still hadn't finished it, so he could only go to battle in person. On the way, Cao Xuan didn't forget to chat with his junior brother.

Although the two are brothers, the age gap is not small, there is a bit of a generation gap, Cao Xuan is busy, and the child is tender, I am sorry to take the initiative to trouble the brother, so I don’t communicate much at ordinary times, most of them are chatting when Cao Xuan comes to see the master A few words.

"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, my wife said that you will graduate next year. How are you doing? Do you have any intention of working?"

Li Gen studied Japanese, so it is not difficult to find a job in today's capital, but the future of salary is hard to say.

After all, he is also Master's only son, so Cao Xuan intends to give him a hand.

Even if it is inconvenient for his own company, for other related companies, Cao Xuan's random words are better than Li Gen's blind search.

"Brother, I...I want to be admitted to Nortel...to be a director and make movies in the future."

Li Gen was a little nervous. Although the two of them didn't communicate much on weekdays, Cao Xuan had been a teacher for more than ten years, and he would come to visit the two elders whenever he had time during the holidays. He was like another son of the Li family, and in Li Gen's heart, he was similar to his own brother.

The eldest brother is like a father, plus Cao Xuan's achievements and status, to be honest, Li Xuejian's father is half as weak as Cao Xuan in Li Gen's heart.

"What do you think, tell me."

Cao Xuan was noncommittal, and asked Li Gen to continue. Li Gen suppressed the tension in his heart and began to express his thoughts.

In fact, he wanted to take the Nortel exam when he graduated from high school, but he failed the art exam, and because he was young, he chose another school in a daze.

In the past few years in college, he also studied his major seriously, but the more he studied, the more confused he became.

One is that I have not given up on my inner dream. After all, there is a father of an actor and an elder brother of an actor in the family. He is deeply influenced and still has a movie feeling.

In addition, I also experienced some internships in my junior and senior years. I suffered a lot and realized the cruelty of society. Other industries are easy to break through.

Li Gen spoke very frankly, although his expression was a bit ashamed, he didn't hide his small thoughts, Cao Xuan couldn't help but nodded.

There is nothing shameful about wanting to take advantage of the family's influence. If the old Cao family had strength in Zaoshi back then, Cao Xuan would not have had to go to the capital to work.

There are so many second-generation celebrities in the entertainment industry, and many old artists are willing to push their sons and daughters to the top even if they don't care about the festival.

In addition to making money in this industry is easy, it is also because other industries are not easy to mix. In the circle, at least there are family connections to take care of it, and it is easier to get ahead.

Poor parents all over the world, don't most parents try their best to pave the way for their children, no matter what kind of business they are in.

This behavior itself may be blameless, and the scolding is mostly because of the uncoordinated behavior of many second-generation stars.

After all, it is easy to be hated by parents who push the top position. If they do not perform well, they may get an objective evaluation if they perform well.

We must know that compared with ordinary artists, the resources obtained by this group of second-generation stars are abundant, and the difficulty of success is relatively low, which is definitely what many artists dream of.

This is still called suffering and tiredness, the performance is bad, it is strange not to be despised...

If Li Gen really wanted to make a living in the circle, both Li Xuejian and Cao Xuan would help.

Especially Cao Xuan, who has no relatives and no reason to look at him, let alone his own younger brother.

However, Cao Xuan didn't say these words, he just encouraged him to prepare for the exam well, and helping him is helping, but it's up to Li Gen himself to make a name for himself.

In the future, when the time is ripe, Cao Xuan will give him a chance. Everyone will be happy if he succeeds, but if his strength is weak, Cao Xuan will not be able to praise him without a bottom line.

Li Gen didn't care, he had to take his master's reputation into consideration.

Even about Li Gen's entrance examination for Nortel, Cao Xuan didn't say anything about it. Master Li Xuejian didn't care if he didn't know, but if Li Gen couldn't even pass the Nortel examination, don't even think about making movies. Cao Xuan borrowed some money to start a business. This is reliable.

Walking into the unit building, Yu Haidan, the teacher's wife, had been waiting at the door for a long time. She couldn't help complaining when she saw the things in the hands of several people.

"How many times have I said, come here, don't buy so many things, the pile of things for the Mid-Autumn Festival hasn't moved yet."

"Why are you being polite to me? If you can't eat it, you can give it away. Besides, I didn't buy all of these. Some of them were given away by others. They can't be used up at home. Pick some suitable ones for you."

"Just keep me covered."

How many times has she listened to Cao Xuan's words, at first she took it seriously, then asked someone, everything was specially bought according to the conditions and needs of the old couple, and the price made Yu Haidan sleepless for days sleep well.

But there is no way if you don’t want it, Cao Xuan is used to being a rascal, he doesn’t let in the things he doesn’t want, and even throws them at the door and then escapes. Some related packaging and documents are all destroyed in advance, and he can’t return the goods.

The couple can't sell the gift, it would be too hurtful, so they can only accept it, feeling that they had a good life in the previous life, and have such an apprentice.

Putting down the things, Zhu Jiang left first to wait in the car, Yu Haidan brought fruit, Cao Xuan was not polite, grabbed a few winter dates and ate happily.

"Where is my master?"

"I don't think you came here, did you go to the market to buy fish and shrimp? The ones that were shipped from Jinmen in the early morning are all freshly caught today."

The apprentice is rich, and has eaten and seen it before. No matter how expensive the ingredients bought by the old couple are, they can't compare to the fraction of a few gifts from others, so they simply follow their hearts.

Every year when Cao Xuan came over, the couple made careful preparations, Yu Haidan cooked the food himself, and Li Xuejian went to the market before dawn to buy the freshest vegetables and meat of the day, which Cao Xuan loved to eat.

Apprentices respect their teachers, and teachers treat their disciples like a city!
If there was still a bit of utilitarianism in the early years, after getting along for so many years, it is really no different from a family.

While talking, Li Xuejian came in with big bags and small bags. When he saw Cao Xuan when he entered the door, he ignored him. He just searched around first, and said disappointedly when he couldn't find anyone.

"Didn't you bring Li Li?"

"It's too cold, and it was inconvenient for me to go to other people's houses to pay New Year's greetings before. If you want to see your granddaughter, you can go to see your granddaughter directly."

Although Xiao Cao Li's birth was a secret, he did not hide it from Li Xuejian's family. Although Lao Li had reservations about his apprentice's love life, he still loved this little granddaughter very much.

The last time Cao Xuan brought him to play during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he called out to him as a grandpa, almost making his snot come out.

After all, this is not her own granddaughter. No matter how much Li Xuejian likes her, she can't go to Cao Xuan's house often, and she can only remember that Cao Xuan sometimes brings her to have a look.

Seeing that the master was a little disappointed, Cao Xuan casually turned the fire on Li Gen: "I didn't see what your father thought of his grandchildren, so work hard and get a girlfriend home as soon as possible."

"..."

Li Gen was stunned, his face showed the innocence and heartbreak of being stabbed in the back.

Back then when Cao Xuan was urged to marry, he was firmly on the side of senior brother. Why is senior brother repaying his kindness now...

While the teacher was cooking, Cao Xuan and Li Xuejian went to the study to chat. In the early years, Cao Xuan asked for some performance problems, but now the master and the apprentice seldom talk about performance.

Basically, chatting about the current situation of the family, the trend of the industry, talking about movies, and even talking about calligraphy are more than talking about performances.

There is no way, Lao Li's inventory has been emptied by Cao Xuan.

Moreover, at Cao Xuan's present stage, those so-called acting skills and knowledge have long been familiar to him, and Li Xuejian has nothing to teach him. Self enlightenment.

The two chatted for a long time, went out to eat, and after the meal, Li Gen had a classmate make an appointment to play football in a nearby field. Cao Xuan felt itchy, since he had nothing to do in the afternoon anyway, so he joined in the fun and treated it as a digesting meal.

Speaking of which, Li Gen was brought in by Cao Xuan to watch football, but what made him heartbroken was that this kid's entry time just happened to catch up with Liverpool's Istanbul night, and he directly voted for the enemy.

Because of this, Li Gen usually didn't dare to talk about football in front of his senior brother, but this time it happened to be overheard, otherwise he would have been pushed away.

Although it was a seven-man field, the game was quite formal, and it had its own team uniform. Li Gen's side was unified with AC Milan, and the other team was Beijing Guoan. He even brought his own scoreboard for the convenience of the crowd.

As for kicking the ball, that's all.

Even Cao Xuan, a fake fan, could tell that they were pecking at each other. The only advantage was that they played hard and did not behave like Fu Huan.

Cao Xuan usually only watches football, but doesn't play football very much. At most, he kills the Quartet live, but watching a group of rookies makes his feet itch a little.

Originally, he had been watching from the corner wearing sunglasses and a hat. Taking advantage of the midfield, he ran over to ask Li Gen.

"Ask your captain, can I play?"

Li Gen didn't talk nonsense, and went directly to the captain. He was Li Gen's classmate. He was from the sports school, and he was also the team's top card and forward.

Hearing that there was going to be a substitution, the captain who was originally a bit dissatisfied because the team was behind: "Gen'er, even though it's just for fun, it's still a competition, so you can't...fuck."

The captain who was lecturing, saw Cao Xuan who took off his hat and sunglasses to greet him, and the rest of his words turned into sincere amazement.

The team members who were drinking water and fiddling with their shoes and socks next to them heard the captain's voice and looked up, and suddenly the sound of "Fuck" came one after another.

The violent reaction startled the players on the opposite side again, someone looked over and said, "Damn it."

After 1 minute, Cao Xuan was surrounded by a group of people, which directly turned into a fan meeting.

Fortunately, today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and no one else came for this game, otherwise it is very likely to trouble the police station to work overtime.

It took a few minutes for the situation to stabilize. Knowing that Cao Xuan wanted to play, the captain, who had just refused, nodded without saying a word, and even borrowed a pair of sneakers of the same size for Cao Xuan.

As for the jersey, there is indeed no suitable one, but it doesn't matter, just this one person, as long as you know which team it belongs to.

Cao Xuan said that others are no-nonsense, but in fact he is not much better.

But he couldn't hold back his face, and all his teammates tried their best to pass him the ball, not to mention teammates, even the players on the opposite side couldn't help passing him.

The goalkeeper on the opposite side was furious.

I guard against them, and I have to guard against you, one kick and one thirteen!
In such a situation where the whole audience was stuffing cakes into their mouths, no matter how bad Cao Xuan's feet were, he managed to score two goals and lead the team to victory.

Not to mention, this is a ball game, Cao Xuan understands why those bosses like to play basketball or various sports games with their employees every now and then.

Cao Xuan was also a little lucky that the two teams didn't have their own black fans, and most of them were college students, with tender faces and easy to coax. Otherwise, it would not be that everyone tried their best to pass the ball to him, but just cheered him up and shoveled him.

After all, "I assisted Cao Xuan to score a goal" is completely different from "I made Cao Xuan a fool" and "I nearly cried Cao Xuan".

After the game, it was time to sign autographs and take a group photo. The happy Cao Xuan never refused to come, and even asked Li Gen for a group photo, and posted it on Weibo when he went home at night.

[A rare relaxing time, thanks to the little brothers for their help and release of water, experienced once and scored twice]

During the Chinese New Year, everyone rested, and it was the peak of surfing the Internet. Not long after Weibo was posted, there were a lot of discussions.

[An actor doesn't think about filming, he kicks the ball]

[Not doing business properly, when will the new album be released]

[Twice scored, if you don't give Grandpa Cao the whole hat-trick, the brothers are not in place]

[Ahhh, XXX stadium, oops, I went there at night, but I missed it]

[The person who assisted Mama Cao passed by]

[When will we play again, Xuanwu Zidane requests a fight]

[Chaoyang Messi said that he is free at any time]

[Dongcheng Puyol will never release water]

[Look for me, Changping Beckham, I pass the ball very flamboyantly]

【…】

Weibo is buzzing with excitement, but Cao Xuan has already put the matter behind him and is preparing for the premiere of "Save Mr. Me". After finishing this work, he will go abroad for a good vacation.

----

ps: The college entrance examination is tomorrow, I don’t know how many friends are in the third year of high school, remember to bring the admission ticket, come on!
　It's not dark, it should be afternoon
