I'm not just a director

There are many people doing comedy crossover performances, but it's not obvious yet. In the future, it will simply be a matter of doing crossovers if you have some fame.

If you are not famous, go to the draft. After you become popular, go to bring goods.

Anyway, as long as you have traffic, or have had traffic in the past, the Internet will never treat you badly.

Everyone who comes after the fire has audience support. After all, the world is too big!

The king of sketches also has an audience, and he is not only popular himself, but he can also make people popular in various ways.

On a stage like the Spring Festival Gala, the sketch king has great freedom of choice.

When choosing those apprentices to attend the Spring Festival Gala, as long as the program is exciting enough, CCTV will open a big back door for them.

Of course, these apprentices did not disappoint him. No matter what happens in the future, at least he was able to hold on for those ten minutes on stage.

In addition to being a duo and sketch actor, the King of Sketch himself is also an excellent actor.

Needless to say, "Liu Laogen" and "Ma Dashuai" are simply well-known TV programs.

A high-quality movie like "Falling Leaves Returns to Its Roots" can be handled by the King of Sketch.

The only overturn was probably with Lao Mouzi.

Of course, this is also a mutual fall-out between the two. This movie gave Lao Mouzi the worst and most vulgar reputation in history.

The sketch king's acting career has also been criticized by the outside world.

It seems that comedy people like to get involved in film and television works. One is the king of sketches, and the other is a fat little black guy who talks about cross talk.

Of course, the King of Sketch's performance is much more impressive than that of Little Black Fatty. No matter how bad he is, he still has three TV series and one movie to base his career on.

Looking at Little Black Fatty again, it seems that there are no characters or film and television works that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

If I really had to pick a character, it would be that he created a character who loves to act in bad movies.

Acting in a bad movie is like being cursed!

Regarding the question about the King of Sketch, Jiang Peian thought for a moment and said with a smile:

"The relationship is good, then I will have to ask Teacher Zhao for more advice."

The sketch king smiled slightly, put out the cigarette, and said:

"Then please contact me when you have time. I'll go in first."

"Okay, you're busy."

Jiang Peian waved his hand towards the other party.

The King of Sketch, a man who has appeared in the Spring Festival Gala 21 times in a row. Watching the King of Sketch's sketches in the Spring Festival Gala has almost become a well-known thing for women and children, affecting two or three generations.

In the Chinese sketch world, this person can be said to be the number one.

Jiang Peian sighed alone for a while, and then went into the hall to prepare for his program.

CCTV No. 2005 Studio Hall, where the last rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala was held.

The program in this rehearsal can be said to be the final schedule of the Spring Festival Gala program.

With the lively scene of the opening song and dance "Grand Reunion of the Grand Age", people were presented with a majestic and joyful grand get-together.

In this rehearsal, Liu Tianwang, Yung Zhuer, Fang Zuming from Hong Kong Province and Cai Yiling from Taiwan Province all appeared one after another.

The scene was even more star-studded and shining.

Among the total 38 programs, 24 are singing and dancing programs, and the rest are basically cross talk and sketches.

The opening song and dance "Grand Party of the Grand Age" was performed by CCTV's "gold medal" hosts Zhu Jun, Zhou Tao, Li Yong and other local hosts.

There is another issue of concern in this Spring Festival Gala.

Singers Liu Huan and Mao Amin, who had songs in the first two rehearsals but never appeared, officially withdrew from the "Spring Festival Gala" in the third rehearsal.

The song and dance director of the Spring Festival Gala said that the reason why their program was "taken down" was that "they did not have suitable songs."

Interestingly, Liu Huan's agent said that Liu Huan did not attend the rehearsal because he did not receive any notice about participating in the "Spring Festival Gala". He did not know why the program was deleted.

However, among the large team of more than 60 Spring Festival Gala singers, some singers, especially singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan, appeared on the show with some songs that were obviously only barely related to the theme of the "Spring Festival Gala".

Liu Huan and Mao Amin, who are among the best in the mainland, cannot compete.

It obviously doesn’t make sense to explain the Spring Festival Gala with just “there are no suitable songs”.

At the same time, the sketch collaboration between Niu Yu and Feng Gong was also eliminated.

The explanation given by the Spring Festival Gala was "rigid performance".

The most outrageous operation came, and Feng Gong's name finally appeared in the cast list.

Then this "rigid" undoubtedly refers to Niuya, who has not appeared in the Spring Festival Gala for a long time.

Niuyu obviously couldn't swallow this tone, and later expressed his dissatisfaction with the Spring Festival Gala in front of the media...

But no matter how, how could Niuya resist the onslaught of the Spring Festival Gala? No matter how much he complains about his dissatisfaction, it will be of no use in the end.

It also left the audience with an image of incompetence and rage.

After all, it is absolutely impossible for a highly political party like the Spring Festival Gala to be comprehensive.

For the sake of balance, it is inevitable that some people will be accidentally injured.

The program for the Spring Festival Gala has finally been finalized amid the growing turmoil.

There are a total of 38 programs, all of which are carefully selected.

With the end of the fifth rehearsal, the official program of the Spring Festival Gala has finally arrived.

"Mom, I have to wait until the Chinese New Year this year before I can go back. Didn't I tell you last time when I called you?"

Jiang Peian said helplessly.

"If you ask me, it would be great if you, your uncle, aunt, and grandparents come directly to the capital to celebrate the New Year. I have a house.

It’s time to check up on your health as well. Don’t always think about saving money. "

"Hmm, you can watch the Spring Festival Gala on CCTV. You have watched the Spring Festival Gala for many years, so why are you doubting it?

You can definitely see me, but the time for one song is not long. Don’t you like Liu Tianwang? I saw him backstage at the Spring Festival Gala today..."

Ever since they heard that Jiang Pei'an was going to attend the Spring Festival Gala, the Jiang family were so excited that they couldn't sleep.

You said that Jiang Pei'an has won awards for his movies abroad, and his movies in China have grossed over 100 million yuan at the box office.

These words sounded awesome to them, but they didn't know the specific method.

However, if Jiang Peian performs in the Spring Festival Gala, then they will understand.

For them, this is definitely smoke rising from their ancestral graves.

That was the Spring Festival Gala, a program that people all over the world were paying attention to.

In their minds, attending the Spring Festival Gala is much more fulfilling than Jiang Pei'an's movie box office exceeding 100 million and winning awards.

……

February 2005, 2, New Year's Eve, at seven o'clock in the evening.

There is still one hour left before the Spring Festival Gala live broadcast begins.

The backstage of the Spring Festival Gala is very simple, not as big as expected, not as magnificent as the stage, very simple.

There are temporarily unused clutter piled in the corner, which looks very messy.

The dressing room was small, but it was packed with big names and unknown actors.

No matter who comes, they must abide by the rules here. After all, there is no place without rules.

Therefore, CCTV has done a relatively good job of treating everyone equally.

No matter how big a celebrity is, there is no special label in front of CCTV cameras.

Everyone, both the staff and the actors, acted in a hurry, and the atmosphere was very tense.

The dancers were standing and resting in their costumes, and everyone else was also wearing costumes and waiting quietly for the show to start. It's hard work, but in their opinion, it's worth it...

"In the last ten minutes, the actors are preparing."

"Countdown to ten."

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

"Three, two...start!"

The director's voice came from the headphones, and everyone tensed up.

Jiang Pei'an actually relaxed. This kind of countdown sounded familiar and cordial to him. After all, he often shouted it on the set.

Another reason is that he is not the first to perform a show.

Their program is considered to be at the front of the first half, but as the old saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning.

As long as the previous program holds up, the subsequent program will naturally pass smoothly.

When the director's voice ended, the lighting effects on the stage suddenly became full.

The dancers filed out, and the singer's voice came from the speakers.

It is worth mentioning that all singing programs in the Spring Festival Gala are closed microphone.

It is also known as lip-synching.

There has been constant discussion about various news about lip-syncing during the Spring Festival Gala.

Because many performers clearly show traces of lip-synching.

Almost every year there is news about a certain singer refusing to appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala because he could not really sing.

The Spring Festival Gala has been held 83 times since 22.

From 83 to 93, in the first ten years of the Spring Festival Gala, all the stages were lip-syncing.

These are understandable, because the live radio and broadcast technology at that time did not support relatively high-quality broadcasts.

The effect of real singing may be very poor, so for the sake of stage and broadcast effects, all the programs at that time were lip-syncing.

In fact, it is not that the Spring Festival Gala has not tried real singing, but the effort behind real singing is very great.

The first real singing attempt at the Spring Festival Gala was in 1994.

The chief director of the Spring Festival Gala at that time was Lang Kun. Yes, he was also the chief director of this year's 2005 show.

He boldly tried to make all the shows sound real.

In order to ensure that singers make as few mistakes as possible, the singers who performed on the stage at that time were basically ethnic and bel canto singers, and there were almost no pop songs.

Not only that, in order to show that he was really singing, Lang Kun also arranged a live band to accompany him on the Spring Festival Gala stage, without even playing the accompaniment tape.

Therefore, Lang Kun is quite courageous. No matter whether it was the first ten years or the following twenty years, such a scene has never happened.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is unprecedented and unprecedented.

But such an attempt comes with great risks.

If there is a problem with one of the singers or the band, the entire show will collapse and cause a stage accident.

After all, this is a grand event for the national audience. At such a party, mistakes must be avoided, or even zero mistakes must be made.

Although this Spring Festival Gala passed smoothly, the preparation and live broadcast process were too laborious and laborious.

Later directors acquiesced in the behavior of lip-synching during the Spring Festival Gala, but later on some singers insisted on real singing and there were sporadic real singing stages.

There are also more or less problems on these stages.

For example, the 1999 Spring Festival Gala was the first time Anita Mui appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

At that time, she was confident enough to reject the director's suggestion of lip-syncing and insisted on singing in real time.

But in the end, she was unable to hear the accompaniment clearly because of the eerie stage design and technical glitches during the singing.

In the end, Mei Yanfang sang the whole song by relying on her feelings despite the pressure.

In the end, she was criticized by audiences across the country because of the problems with the stage design and singing. She herself broke down and cried after the performance.

Later, on the 2011 Spring Festival Gala stage, three powerful singers Li Jian, Fang Datong, and Xiao Yushen were invited to perform on the stage.

Because the audience knew the abilities of the three people very well, the director team decided to let these three people sing for real.

As a result, the problem appeared with Xiao Yushen.

At that time, Xiao Yushen had a cold that affected his voice for many days and also had to go through many rehearsals and training.

As a result, his voice was completely different from his usual singing voice, and his voice broke several times throughout the process.

Therefore, many viewers who watched the live broadcast thought that his strength was just like this... his singing skills were poor.

Therefore, deciding to sing in the Spring Festival Gala requires the right time, place, and people. These three conditions are indispensable.

Once some problems occur on site, more manpower and material resources will be spent on temporary rescue operations.

It is a test of courage and luck for both the staff and performers.

So this is one of the reasons why Jiang Peian is not too nervous. At least his acting skills are passable.

……

Xin'an County, Jiangtai Town.

Jiangtai Town was very lively. Although Jiang Pei'an was not here, the village party was still held as usual.

In view of the great success of the village evening in the previous two years, both the city and the county attach great importance to the hosting of the village evening this year.

Even a year ago, the whole city was learning from Jiangtai Town's "village evening" model, preparing to carry forward this rare cultural phenomenon and build it into a brand.

But there is no cohesion like the folk art troupe in other places.

Holding a village party in the village? It's a waste of time on New Year's Eve, and there's no money to get it. It's hard to wait until the New Year's break all year round, but still let us rehearse?

Therefore, even if the government intervenes, there are still many disobedient artists.

Don't ask, I just don't have time to ask.

What kind of wife is having a baby, getting married and meeting her parents, or is too busy at the end of the year to have time?

The reasons for rejection were various, but the main one was rebellion.

Firstly, I have no money, and secondly, I have no reputation. I am not allowed to make dumplings at home with my family during the Chinese New Year.

Although each county also has its own cultural tour team, the key is that just relying on these few people is not enough.

In the end, they had no choice but to give up organizing village evenings.

But the village evening in Jiangtai Town is different. Because it is organized voluntarily by civil society groups, the officials only need to cooperate and produce relevant documents, and they can handle all the procedures themselves.

This year's village party in Jiangtai Town attracted a lot of attention, and it has become the center of "New Year's Eve" for young people.

However, this year Jiang Peian's family did not go to the village gala to watch the program. Instead, the whole family stayed in front of the TV waiting for the real Spring Festival Gala to be broadcast.

"Which program is Anzi on?"

"In addition, the overture is the fifteenth. Mom, you have asked me several times."

"Oh, which program is it now?"

"Where's the second one."

"Anzi doesn't know if she has eaten yet. This show is really frustrating."

"Don't worry, I told you on the phone before that he will take care of it, so don't worry about it."
