Chapter 228 Finally Waiting for the Boss to Play

The winter in the north is still relatively cold, especially in Jilin Province, which is relatively north of the three northeastern provinces. The temperature before and after the Chinese New Year is around minus 20 degrees.

As the capital city of Kyrgyzstan Province, Chuncheng is called Chuncheng, but now it is a world covered in silver.

A heavy snowfall just fell a few days ago. Although the road was quickly cleared, the snow in other places would not melt. The whole city seemed to be covered with a thick layer of white quilt.

People who simply live here have become accustomed to it, and their daily life will not be affected by the weather.

Especially during Chinese New Year, every household puts up Spring Festival couplets, blessing characters, hangs red lanterns, and children in thick clothes set off firecrackers on the snow outside. The whole city is red and white, and the festive atmosphere is full.

In a high-end villa in Spring City, Meng Ziyi was wearing a thin pink home dress, with a cute rabbit headband on his head, no makeup on his face, lying on his bed without any image, brushing his phone.

Looking out from the window of her bedroom, the snow-covered and freezing scenery outside, but the house is warm as spring and very comfortable.

Mencius looked at the internal jokes on the phone stupidly, and when he was amused by the jokes on it, he glanced at the time on the upper right corner of the phone.

"Ah~ It's 8 o'clock so soon, the Spring Festival Gala is about to start!"

Thinking of her getting up from the bed, putting on a pair of pink bear slippers, she opened the door and walked quickly to the living room.

The living room of the villa is large, with a somewhat old-fashioned decoration style, mahogany floor, black leather sofa, and a golden chandelier in the middle.

"Dad, has the Spring Festival Gala started yet?"

Mencius asked his father who was watching TV in the living room.

"Yes, just started."

Father Meng has short hair, a slightly fat body, and wears a pair of glasses. Although he is over middle-aged, he can vaguely see the shadow of being handsome when he was young.

The [Spring Festival Gala] on the opposite TV has just begun.

Meng Ma, who came from the kitchen with a plate of fruit, put a plate of grapes on the tea table in front of Meng Ziyi.

"How many times have I told you that a little girl must sit, sit, and stand? Look at yourself. You're either lying on the bed or paralyzed on the sofa. What kind of dignity is it?"

Mencius was not surprised at the familiar nagging sound, after all, she had been home for more than a week, and it was normal for her to be disgusted by her mother.

"Mom, aren't you at home, I'm an old lady when I'm outside!

I'm the belle of the Film Academy, so of course I have to maintain my image. "

"Ziyi, I remember you were not interested in the Spring Festival Gala in previous years, why are you so active this year?"

Father Meng asked a little strangely.

"This year is different, the Spring Festival Gala has my boss's program!"

Mencius said with a little excitement.

"Your boss? Gu Wei?"

"Dad, you know him too?"

Mencius was a little surprised, she didn't expect her father to know Gu Wei's name at his age.

"I don't care about celebrities, but my daughter has already signed with his company, so I have to get to know the other party, what if it's a liar?"

Speaking of this, Dad Meng frowned.

"You said that you didn't know how to discuss such a big matter with your family members as signing a contract with a brokerage company. If your mother hadn't called you to ask you, we would have been kept in the dark."

"Dad~
I'm such an adult, I can make up my own mind about these things, and besides, our boss is such a big star, and he is still my senior brother, so if he can invite me, of course he has to agree quickly.

Look, have I filmed a lot of scenes this year, your daughter will become a big star sooner or later! "

Hearing what Mencius said, Father Meng looked helpless.

"Okay, okay, my daughter will definitely become a big star in the future!"

Mencius Yi's family background is good, his father is in business, and he is well-known in the local business circle.

She has been pampered and pampered by her family as a little princess since she was a child, and no matter what she wants to do, the family will find a way to satisfy her.

Meng Ziyi, who grew up in such an environment, unexpectedly did not develop a young lady's temper, but had a very good personality.

When she was in high school, she suddenly wanted to apply for an art school and wanted to be a star. Her father spent a lot of money to help her find a tutor, and also dredged up some relationships with film and television academies. Finally, she entered the Beijing Film and Television Academy as an art candidate.

Originally, Dad Meng wanted to help her find a reliable brokerage company after she was about to graduate. Even if the family spent some money, she couldn't let her daughter be wronged.

Unexpectedly, she was only a sophomore, and she signed a contract with a brokerage company on her own initiative.

When he first found out about this, he thought that his daughter was being deceived.

Later, I asked a friend to check her agency company, only to find out that it was the company under the name of big star Gu Wei.

Although the company's scale is small, it has great development potential and has already made a female star named Zhang Tianai popular.

After knowing this, he was relieved, but he still gave Mencius a meal afterward.

This year is the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Goat, and the mascot is also a cute cartoon lamb.

At the beginning of the party, amidst the sound of singing and dancing, Zhu Jun, Dong Qing and other CCTV hosts came out in costumes.

It is a pity that Li Yong, as the head host of CCTV and the absolute main force of the host team of the previous Spring Festival Gala, was absent from this year's Spring Festival Gala due to personal health reasons.

The opening song and dance performance ended, and the second program was a song "Chinese Good Sons and Grandchildren" brought by three actors Zhang Fengyi, Duan Yihong and Zhu Yawen.

None of the three were professional singers, and no audience asked them how well they sang. They just came to the Spring Festival Gala to show their faces and add some stars to the stage.

After one song ends, the third program is the cross talk between Yue Yunpeng and Sun Yue【I Can't Take It】.

Guo Degang didn't attend the Spring Festival Gala this year, but his lover Xiao Yueyue did.

A "Song of the Five Rings" made Yue Yunpeng popular on the Internet and became the most famous cross talk actor in the second generation of Deyun Society after Cao Yunjin left.

Yue Yunpeng and Sun Yue, who stepped on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for the first time, worked very hard. It can be seen that the cross talk jokes were carefully prepared by them, full of jokes, and the effect was very good. The audience was also amused by them.

At the end of the cross talk, there is another song and dance combination, including Tao Zhe's "Everything Is Happy", Zhang Ye's "Small Town Girl", and the last song is "The Most Dazzling" sung by Chopstick Brothers Xiao Yan, Wang Taili, Phoenix Legend Zeng Yi, and Linghua. Little Apple].

Last year, Chopstick Brothers released another cheerful saliva song [Little Apple] after [Old Boy].

Since its official release on May 5 this year, it has quickly become popular on the Internet, and at the same time set off an upsurge of covering and imitating by the whole people.

Walking on the street, you will see aunts dancing [Little Apple] square dance, and you can watch various versions of [Little Apple] videos when you turn on the computer. As long as you listen to it, the melody in your head can’t stop!

On Youku alone, the cumulative views of all videos related to "Little Apple" exceeded 5 million, which set a record for the highest number of views of movie promotional videos; Weibo topic list and hot search list; and on NetEase, Kugou and other major music charts, this divine song is also on the list.

With such achievements and popularity, Chopsticks Brothers will be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala this year as a matter of course.

After the singing and dancing, there was another sketch, [Xi Le Street] co-produced by Jia Ling and Sha Yi.

This year's Spring Festival Gala is such an arrangement. On average, one or two singing and dancing programs will be followed by a language program, cross talk or sketch.

The effect of this arrangement is obviously very good. From the cheerful laughter coming from the living room of Mencius Yi's house from time to time, it can be felt that they are very satisfied with the program arrangement of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

After all, people's pursuit of happiness is endless, and who doesn't like to watch cross talk sketches that keep making themselves laugh.

Later, some programs appeared one after another, including Deng Ziqi's "Together As Far as We Are", Karen Mok's "When You Are Old", and Feng Gong, Gao Xiaopan, Zhang Xiaofei's "Little Cotton Jacket", Pan 【Adventure at the Station】, which was co-produced by Chang Jiang and Cai Ming.

The time slowly came to around 10 o'clock in the evening, and Shen Teng and Mary's sketch "Follow It Like You" also began to perform.

Mencius waited a little anxiously. She searched the program list of the Spring Festival Gala on her mobile phone, and comforted herself:
"It's coming soon, there is another show and it's the boss' turn to play."

【Follow what you like】It tells the story of Ma Jingjing, the female section chief, in order to curry favor with the leader, and let Hao Jian, a section member who is good at playing table tennis, practice table tennis during working hours to cater to the leader's hobby.

This is an anti-corruption sketch, directed and written by Yan Fei and Peng Damo.

It can be said that regardless of the content or the interpretation of Shen Teng and Mary, the sketch has achieved a combination of irony and jokes, and the live effect is very good.

However, something went wrong in Shen Teng's last line. The character "Hao Jian" he played had a line of "refuse pornography, refuse to gamble, and refuse table tennis". After the program was broadcast, many table tennis players including Wang Hao Athletes expressed dissatisfaction.

Later, one of the skit performers, Shen Teng, posted on Weibo to explain that it was a slip of the tongue, "A slip of the tongue, refusing Huang, refusing to bet, refusing to flatter, and said flattering to table tennis. Sorry! I made trouble for friends who like national football."

Wang Hao and Ma Long then forwarded this Weibo, and the matter just subsided.

The skit ended, followed by a dance program [Silk Road Clothes] performed by [China Oriental Performing Arts Group].

A beautiful dance ended, and the host continued to announce the curtain. The next program was the song [Chi Ling] brought to everyone by actors Gu Wei and Zeng Li.

Finally waiting for Gu Wei's program, Mencius stared at the TV without turning his eyes.

At this time, in the control room of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, the chief director Ha Wen is here to monitor the progress of the normal gala.

The executive director Yang Lailai who was sitting next to her suddenly spoke:
"Director Ha, when we came to Gu Wei's show, the ratings had a noticeable slight increase.

It seems that it is a wise decision for you to ask Gu Wei to come and sing in our Spring Festival Gala. "

Looking at the trend chart of ratings in front of him, Ha Wen also felt a little emotional:
"In recent years, the Spring Festival Gala has become more and more difficult to do. Many young people have gradually abandoned the Spring Festival Gala. It is the elderly audience who can really persist in front of the TV on New Year's Eve.

Looking for Gu Wei is also to attract young audiences to watch. The directors of the Spring Festival Gala have been doing this all these years. Didn't Feng Xiaogang invite that Korean star last year?

It's just that I didn't expect Gu Wei to have such a big impact on the ratings. "

On the stage, the lights are all dimmed.

The melodious music sounded, and the lights on the stage gradually brightened. Gu Wei was wearing a black Chinese tunic suit, with a slender figure, a face like a crown jade, eyes like stars, a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows, plump and handsome.

"So handsome~ so handsome~"

Seeing Gu Wei dressed like this, Meng Ziyi couldn't help but exclaimed twice, with a foolish smile on his face.

"Indeed, your boss looks really good, and this look is considered rare among celebrities."

Meng's mother at the side rarely said anything about her daughter, and she agreed with her while watching TV.

Zeng Li next to Gu Wei was wearing a costume, and she looked very charming when she was tall and frowning.

Behind them are dancers from the Central Academy of Chinese Opera.

"The play is folded and the sleeves rise and fall

Sing joys and sorrows

Fans open and close gongs and drums and silent
Who can tell outsiders about the love in the play

"

Gu Wei opened his mouth, and his clear, loud and magnetic voice filled the entire party scene, and the singing voice was presented in front of hundreds of millions of viewers across the country along with the CCTV broadcast.

"Isn't your boss an actor? He also sings very well. It feels like he's not inferior to those professional singers."

After listening to the beginning, Father Meng couldn't help but say something.

"Dad, you don't know that the boss is a professional singer, right? He sang the most popular song [The Lonely Brave Man] the year before last."

Mencius said with some pride.

"[The Lonely Brave Man] was sung by him. That song was played in the streets and alleys for a while, and the kindergarten near us played it every day, and the children around could sing it.

I didn't care who the singer was. "

Father Meng suddenly realized.

"I'm used to blending joys, sorrows, and joys
How can I sing and wear the words

In troubled times, duckweed endures watching beacon fires burn mountains and rivers

I am humble but dare not forget to worry about the country even if no one knows me

"

With the singing of Gu Wei's song, there seemed to be a "corner" singing opera in front of the audience. In that era of flames of war, although he came from a humble background, he still maintained a pure heart for his country and nation. The sentence "I am humble and dare not forget to worry about the country even if no one knows me" made the eyes of countless audiences moist.

"People in the audience can't see the old color when they walk by

People on stage sing heartbreak farewell song

Love words are hard to write, she sings to be reconciled with blood
Who is the guest when the curtain starts and the curtain ends

"

After Gu Wei finished singing, the climax was a part of Zeng Li's opera.

The audience, who were already immersed in the singing, were immediately amazed. There are very few popular songs with a dramatic tone, and such a perfect integration is even rarer.

Zeng Li’s singing is completely at the professional level. She has studied opera since she was a child. After graduating from elementary school, she entered the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Opera to study Peking Opera, majoring in Tsing Yi. Later, she was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama and changed to acting.

It can be said that what she is best at is actually opera, and singing these few lines of opera can't be easier for her.

After a section was sung, there was another piece of Kunqu opera chanted by Zeng Li in the middle, which was full of drama.

Soon after [Chi Ling] sang the whole song, Gu Wei held Zeng Li's hand on the stage, and the two bowed to the audience and turned to leave.

At this moment, thunderous applause erupted from the auditorium already immersed in the singing, and some audience members still had tears in their eyes.

A song seems to be singing love, but what the audience hears from it is patriotism.

After the performance, Gu Wei and Zeng Li went backstage to remove their make-up. Although they had rehearsed many times, but after all, it was the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, they were more or less nervous. Now that it was finally over, the big stone in their hearts had fallen to the ground. .

Gu Wei was about to pat his ass and leave, but he cheated the performers behind him.

[Red Ling] is followed by the song [Silk Road] sung by Na Ying.

After the host made a brief interlude, Na Ying came on stage confidently.

At this time, the thoughts of the audience in the audience are still in the midst of the song created by [Chi Ling], and some people have not been able to get out of their emotions for a while.

This made Na Ying's singing extremely awkward. From the beginning to the end, he didn't get any feedback from the audience, and the applause at the end of the singing was sparse.

Fortunately, the director team discovered this situation when she came on stage, so that the camera would not cut to the auditorium when the eagle sang, and no one in front of the TV noticed her embarrassment.

Mencius, who was sitting on the sofa, saw that Gu Wei's show was over, so he stopped paying attention to the Spring Festival Gala. He took out his mobile phone and thought, "Should I send a congratulatory message to the boss?"
