Super entertainment red envelope

Chapter 217 The first dress rehearsal! (two in one)

When communicating with a veteran musician like Zhao Xiaobai, you only need to say one point, and he can understand the other nine points.

Li Zhifan only said this paragraph, and Zhao Xiaobai understood it all at once, and immediately slapped his thigh: "I understand! I just said that I feel that there is something missing. It turns out that there is a lack of emotion in it, and it is a national emotion!"

After pondering for himself, Zhao Xiaobai took out a copy of the score of "The Butterfly Lovers", then found out the earphones and put them on. At the same time, he turned on the audio on his phone, and while listening, he wrote and drew on the score, constantly marking it.

The review of large-scale programs took nearly four to 10 minutes, followed by individual programs.

Li Zhifan's piano solo became the first subject to be audited.

After he finished playing the song "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon", Zhu Tong was the first to speak again: "The program is very good, but the time will be a little short, less than 3 minutes!"

"It's not short, a party is only three hours!" Li Zhifan said directly.

Feng Xiaokun on the side said: "This time is about the same, Lao Zhu, I think it's okay!"

"What about the opinions of the leaders?" Zhu Tong nodded, and turned to ask the other leaders of the Ministry of Culture and Radio and Television.

Unexpectedly, everyone nodded unanimously. One of the middle-aged men with big back hair said: "I have heard the original song of "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon". The degree, the level is clear, it is already very rare!"

"Yes, the program should keep improving, don't think of ways to procrastinate because of the time!" Another radio and television leader followed up.

"Alright then!" Zhu Tong said simply, "Participate in the rehearsal tomorrow!"

……

The next morning.

Li Zhifan snatched up the China-Ireland air ticket and went to Xi'an together.

on the plane.

Zhao Xiaobai happened to be next to Li Zhifan, and the two had another round of artistic exchanges.

"Yesterday, I went back to study all night, and I recorded a short section myself. Listen to it again!"

Zhao Xiaobai handed the headset to Li Zhifan, and turned on the audio with his mobile phone.

At this time, the stewardess came over with a smile and bowed: "Sir, the plane is about to take off, please turn off your mobile phone, thank you for your cooperation!"

"I know!"

Zhao Xiaobai waved his hand, "I'll be fine soon!"

"Sorry, you have to turn off your phone!"

The stewardess was not too annoying, she just stood by and continued, it seems that she will not stop until she sees Zhao Xiaobai turn off the phone with her own eyes.

Li Zhifan returned the headphones to Zhao Xiaobai: "Mr. Zhao, let's listen again when we get off the plane! Don't disturb other people's work!"

Zhao Xiaobai looked at the stewardess, then at Li Zhifan, and could only sigh: "Okay!"

"Thank you for your cooperation!"

The stewardess kept smiling, and her attitude was always gentle. After speaking, she turned and left.

"Hey, it would be nice to let me play with my phone when I'm flying!"

Zhao Xiaobai murmured, "Before I went to perform abroad, many international flights allow me to play with my mobile phone!"

Li Zhifan shook his head: "I've never heard of it!"

"Aren't you ignorant?" Zhao Xiaobai laughed, "I'll discuss it with Mr. Xia if you have the time. If you have a chance, you can cooperate with us in China and Ireland. When you go to perform abroad, you can be in charge of the piano!"

China Ireland has its own pianist, but the standard configuration of the orchestra is a permanent pianist and a backup pianist.

And China Ireland also often cooperates with pianists from various countries and conducts artistic exchanges.

"Thank you!" Li Zhifan said politely.

"You're welcome, hey, that's right! I also listened to the song "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" you played yesterday. Ethnic charm and noble and elegant music style."

"You flatter me!"

Li Zhifan smiled modestly.

"I'm telling the truth, I haven't!"

Zhao Xiaobai said, "Your adaptation also gave me a lot of inspiration. If there is a chance, we can cooperate to make a piano and violin ensemble version of "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon"."

"I am looking forward!"

Li Zhifan said, "I hope there will be a day of cooperation!"

More than two hours later.

The plane landed at Xi'an Xianyang International Airport.

After leaving the terminal, Li Zhifan took the Zhongaibao bus again and headed to the hotel together.

This time Zhao Yiduo didn't follow, and Li Zhifan was alone.

But with Zhongai taking care of him, there is nothing for him to worry about.

"Boom!"

As soon as he entered the room and put away his luggage, there was a knock on the door.

Li Zhifan didn't lock the door when he first entered the room, Deng Yanan walked in directly: "Zhifan, pack up and go downstairs to eat, remember to lock the door when you come out!"

"I'll wash my face and go down!"

Li Zhifan responded and went into the bathroom.

This hotel has several floors covered by CCTV's father, but it is precisely because of the large number of people that they eat buffets in the restaurant.

When I went downstairs to the restaurant, I saw many familiar faces at a glance.

There are even several official singers who regularly attend the Spring Festival Gala every year. At this moment, they just sit in the corner with a tray and start eating and drinking.

"Zhifan!"

Deng Yanan came up from behind and put his shoulders on his shoulders, "Don't be dazed, let's eat quickly, I heard that the rehearsal will start at [-]:[-] p.m.!"

"Time is so tight?"

Li Zhifan asked subconsciously.

"Today's first rehearsal still depends on the stage effect, and the deficiencies have to be redone. Of course, time is tight!" Deng Yanan took an iron tray and handed it to Li Zhifan.

The two casually added some food and found a place to eat.

Just a few bites later, Zhao Xiaobai came over with a big bowl, glanced at the two people's dinner plates, and said with a smile: "You guys are very good at eating!"

Deng Yanan smiled wryly: "Mr. Zhao, can you still eat flowers in the buffet?"

"Hey, you don't know how to eat just by looking at you!"

Zhao Xiaobai pointed to his own bowl and said, "When you come to Xi'an, how can you not eat mutton noodles? There are also mutton steamed buns and oil-splashed trousers noodles. These are the best noodles in Xi'an!"

“This hotel is not authentic!”

Deng Yanan said, "Mr. Zhao, after the rehearsal is over tonight, let's find an authentic old restaurant to eat!"

"Hey, don't tell me, I really know an old restaurant!"

Zhao Xiaobai said, "I ate there once when I came to Xi'an for a performance six years ago, and I don't know if that restaurant is still there!"

"Eighty percent is gone?"

"Go find it and talk about it!"

"Okay, then I'll hang out with Mr. Zhao tonight!"

"Haha, let me tell you, that fried noodles are really delicious..."

When these two people talk about eating, one can chat better than the other.

Li Zhifan sat across from him and finished eating the food on his plate, while the two were still eloquent.

And it was his first time in Xi'an, and he hadn't eaten many authentic Xi'an delicacies, so he couldn't get in the conversation, so he could only be a listener.

After dinner.

After a short rest, all the actors were taken by several buses to the rehearsal site - Ziyunlou Square in Datang Furong Garden.

As early as the Qin Dynasty, the court took advantage of the natural characteristics of the beautiful scenery in the Qujiang area to open up the famous Yichun Garden here.

When it came to Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, it was renamed "Furong Garden".

During the Tang Dynasty, on the basis of the Furong Garden in the Sui Dynasty, the construction scale and cultural connotation of Qujiang Garden were expanded.

This Ziyun Tower was built during the period of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, there are still many workers hanging lamps upstairs in Ziyun Building, and it is not clear what is going on overall.

The stage art design and production of this Mid-Autumn Festival Gala maximized the use of the real scene buildings on site.

The director team plans to set up a stage on the artificial landscape lake on one side of the square with Ziyun Building, a complex of buildings imitating the Tang Dynasty, as the background of the auditorium.

The main body of the stage organically combines elements such as the city wall of Xi'an and the turrets of the Daming Palace through an unfolded Chinese traditional scroll image, realizing the dreamy effect of the stage on the water and the water in Taichung, creating a romance that spans thousands of years and connects ancient and modern times scene.

In order to prevent rain, many important sets have not been built yet, and everything seen today is just a prototype.

But in the eyes of the choreographer and the director team, the specific stage scene can already be outlined. Through this rehearsal, in addition to making minor modifications to the stage construction, the actors' positions will also be regularly planned.

The theme of this Mid-Autumn Festival Gala is "Hui", so the name of the opening song and dance is "Hui".

This group of dancers is a girl from the Xi'an City Wall Art Troupe. As soon as they come up, they pose in a square formation with a "back" structure. Although they are not rehearsals with makeup, they all have rich expressions, flexible and graceful body movements, and the overall feeling Very graceful.

The singer of the song is the champion winner of the previous "Golden Voice of China", and is also a male and female group called "Qiyuanmeng".

But what made Li Zhifan feel awkward was that the two of them were actually lip-syncing. The woman kept opening and closing her mouth wide. Although the rhythm was right, many of the mouth shapes were clearly not the pronunciation of the word, while the man even sang. He didn't even open his mouth, just followed his female companion to step off the stage a few times, and then... nothing more.

After the opening song and dance show, there were three little boys. They are currently the most popular underage group in China, called "Happy Blue Boys", and the oldest seems to be in the first year of high school.

The song they sang was called "Going Home", which was also a song that fit the theme of the party. The three boys led dozens of hip-hop boys and girls to jump and dance. Because they were lip-syncing, they naturally couldn't hear any panting.

After that, there was another group of choruses with a more interesting title, "Return".

Li Zhifan also met with this chorus group yesterday afternoon when they were reviewing. Their average age is over 40 years old.

Whether this song is sung at the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala or in the land of Xi'an, it has profound meaning.

Firstly, Xi'an is the birthplace of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and holding the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in Xi'an means "return".

Secondly, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival for reunion. The greatest hope of all wanderers is to return to their hometown on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

These three programs constitute the theme of this evening, and they are also a set of 15-minute opening theme shows.

After their rehearsal, the director team gathered these people together, held a ten-minute meeting, and rearranged the positions of some dancers and singers.

After rehearsing four or five groups one after another, the China Philharmonic Orchestra finally played the "Blessed Lovers" violin concerto.

During the review yesterday, Zhu Tong felt that the 24-minute program was too long, and Xia Zhiyi also agreed to shorten the time.

The "Blessed Lovers" concerto is divided into three parts: the presentation part, the development part and the reappearance part.

Today, it is the presentation department that moves onto the stage.

In the introductory part at the beginning, the flute imitates the call of a bird, and then the oboe uses a soft and lyrical introductory theme to show a beautiful scenery of spring, birds and flowers.

Then enter the main section, where the violin plays a poetic theme of love, and the cello responds with the lightness and softness of the violin with its rich and mellow tones.

At this time, several dancers suddenly appeared on the stage. The content of the dance was the story of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai". Although it fit the theme of the music, it didn't fit the theme of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Because the Chinese story related to Mid-Autumn Festival should be Chang'e!

After the performance of Butterfly Lovers, the members of the China Philharmonic Orchestra did not leave the stage. After the conductor Xia Zhiyi turned around and bowed, she turned around and started conducting the orchestra again, playing another sonorous and passionate march.

Li Zhifan was a little confused. He didn't see this part when he reviewed the program yesterday?

And I flew over with people from China and Ireland today, and no one mentioned this matter.

Just when he was wondering, eight men and women suddenly appeared on the field, each holding a folder.

Li Zhifan took a closer look and found that these people were familiar to him, and he could call them all by their names, because they were all well-known and powerful film and television actors in China.

Moreover, they all starred in film and television works with the main theme all the year round, and there is a kind of tall and superior temperament invisible in their bodies.

These eight people echoed the music and began to recite a poem called "Looking Back".

Looking back at the splendid 5000-year civilization, looking back at the struggle of the Chinese nation, and finally looking forward to the blueprint for the future of the motherland.

These eight old actors were not familiar with poetry, they looked at the folder all the time, and occasionally raised their heads to look at the bottom during the recitation.

It can be seen from this that this program is likely to be a political mission added temporarily, and China and Ireland have rich experience in performing, so it is very easy to play a familiar exciting piece of music at any time.

……

Four p.m.

The sun has moved to the other side, and finally it was Li Zhifan's turn to rehearse.

Before going on stage, the director introduced the stage design to Li Zhifan in detail, arranging where he would start and leave, how to deal with any unexpected accidents, etc.

In the center of the square, there is a newly launched smart electric piano by Feinstein. There is a tablet computer in front of the piano, on which the timbre can be adjusted at will.

Because Li Zhifan is the spokesperson of Feinstein Piano in the Asia-Pacific region, whether it is today's rehearsal or the live broadcast of the party at that time, this smart piano will be used.

In front of the piano is a pool. When Li Zhifan sat on the piano and played "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon", a group of dancers danced slowly in the water barefoot.

That's not all, there are also a few dancers hanging from wires in the air, posing elegant dance postures, stepping on colorful clouds under their feet, floating around.

Now it is daytime and no effect can be seen. On the day of the official live broadcast, there will be a bright moon on the stage, which will run through the whole party. At that time, these dancers floating in the sky will be the real "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon".
