Chapter 1350: Supporting Yang Ma
Recording is scheduled to begin a week later, but the SARS situation in Yanjing continues to evolve in the following week.
Among them, the first case of infection occurred in Yenjing University, and a student from a science and engineering university was confirmed to be infected with SARS, but no one expected that a case would be cross-infected in the school, resulting in dozens of suspected cases, coupled with other new cases in the society, which suddenly brought huge pressure to several designated hospitals.
Three days before the performance, the health department decided to activate Xiaotangshan Hospital and urgently establish a hospital dedicated to SARS.
At the same time, the SARS epidemic in Hong Kong and Taiwan was also becoming more and more serious, with news of hospital closures and medical staff infected and dying.
The increasingly severe epidemic has brought an inevitable haze to the people, and the country has been sparing no effort to control and treat SARS, but the disease always needs a process from outbreak to control, not overnight.
Therefore, Yang Ma is even more important to this charity gala against SARS, which not only bears the burden of calling on the whole people to fight SARS together, but also shoulders the mission of encouraging the people and giving them confidence.
Li Mu also realized the important role of this charity gala at this point in time, and the people's panic about the epidemic can no longer be appeased by promoting scientific epidemic prevention, so this gala will become a timely rain to alleviate the people's anxious mood.
This is also the key reason why Li Mu agreed to participate, promised to speak, decided to donate, and promised to make a guest appearance.
Because he couldn't think of a better inspirational song for the time being, Li Mu reported the song "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain" to the preparatory team of Yang Ma's party.
Originally, Li Mu deliberately reminded them to prepare a descended version of the accompaniment suitable for their voice, after all, the original singer of this song was a woman, but the director of the preparation called Li Mu in person, came up and thanked Li Mu first, and then told Li Mu that it would definitely be okay to prepare the accompaniment of the descended version, but before the rehearsal, it was hard for Li Mu to go to their recording studio to record in advance.
Li Mu had heard of the rehearsal in advance, and he was a little confused when he recorded in advance.
But after thinking about it carefully, Li Mu quickly realized the meaning and recorded it in advance, that is, they wanted to let themselves sing at the party.
Li Mu realized that in order to ensure that the effect of the performance is not affected, most of the singing shows in this year's variety shows are fake singing.
But this can't be blamed, after all, this is the tacit rule of the national TV station, and the rules that do not allow lip-syncing have not been officially introduced, and the TV station is of course inclined to use lip-synching to reduce the probability of accidents.
Many celebrities in this era are also accustomed to and tend to lip-sync performances, because this can avoid car accidents and save a lot of effort, and it is said that many stars also lip-sync when they start singing.
However, Li Mu didn't want to lip-synch.
A boss worth tens of billions of dollars, participating in a charity gala, guest singing an inspirational song, and even engaging in lip-synching, is he shameless?
Celebrity lip-syncing is an unspoken rule of the industry, but what kind of business is it for entrepreneurs?
The star goes out on behalf of himself, at most on behalf of the brokerage company behind him, but when an entrepreneur goes out, he represents the employees, products and brands of his entire enterprise, and even represents an industry.
So Li Mu told the director: "It's good to prepare accompaniment, and when the time comes, I will sing live, and I don't need to record in advance." ”
The other party was embarrassed all of a sudden: "Mr. Li, we all use the method of recording......"
Li Mu said: "I know, I don't care how other people sing it, when it comes to my song, you just play the accompaniment for me, and I will sing it live." ”
"This ......" the other party hesitated for a few words, pleading: "It is easy to have problems in live singing, such as poor microphone recording, problems with mixing effects, microphone howling, etc., and if you have a loss of voice, out of tune or wrong shot on the spot, it is also difficult for us to remedy......
Speaking of this, the other party pleaded in a tone: "Mr. Li, I hope you can consider the effect of the program and record it in advance, so that problems can be avoided on the spot." ”
Li Mu saw that the other party had been selling this operation, and said with a little anger in his tone: " If I don't play well, I will apologize to the national audience on the spot, I would rather show the bad side to the audience, rather than deceive in front of the audience, after all, I am not the same as the star, I am a business, the most important thing to do is to be honest, if I also think so according to you, the company will be listed in the future, if the business is not very good, do I also have to make a fake account to deceive shareholders?
The other party complained bitterly in his heart, and he was still persuading: "Mr. Li, you still don't want to be too online, a performance, for the performance effect, is naturally not the same thing as business management, and it is not easy to compare it together." ”
Li Mu lost patience and said, "Let's discuss, either I really sing or I won't sing." ”
After speaking, Li Mu hung up the phone.
More than ten minutes later, the program director called Li Mu back, Li Mu did not answer again, the other party had no choice but to call Li Ziwei, and said to Li Ziwei: "Assistant Li, please communicate with Mr. Li, just say that we will do a good job of live sound debugging for him to meet all his needs, if Mr. Li has no opinion, we will start to prepare." ”
Li Ziwei had no choice but to go back and confirm with Li Mu that although Li Mu was displeased, she didn't ask for more, and she didn't want to ask whether others were lip-syncing or not, but she would never be able to lip-sync when the time came.
……
As soon as he and the director of Yang Ma's party confirmed the problem of real singing, Li Mu received a call from Chen Wan.
As soon as she came up, Chen Wan asked Li Mu: "Bad boy, I heard that you are going to participate in the anti-SARS charity party held by CCTV?"
"yes. Li Mu said: "Such an important and significant thing must be supported." ”
As he spoke, Li Mu asked her with a smile: "It reached you so quickly." ”
Chen Wan said with a smile: "The chief director in charge of CCTV called us in the station, hoping that I could come over to support this party." ”
Li Mu asked puzzledly: "Why do you still need you to help?"
Chen Wan said: "Maybe it's because I just finished the first Super Girl, and now it's relatively popular, so Yang Ma wants me to go over and help." ”
Li Mu nodded.
Although the charity party is also a significant performance, in the final analysis, it is still an entertaining party, so it naturally needs singers, actors and hosts with high market recognition.
The Spring Festival Gala sometimes borrows people from local stations, and generally borrows a brother or sister from a local station, setting up a separate set of hosting teams, in order to increase their entertainment.
Chen Wan said: "What Yang Ma means is that there should be two sets of host combinations on the scene, one is CCTV's own, they are mainly responsible for serious links, such as opening, such as announcing government decisions, reading out the progress of the fight against SARS, and when entrepreneurs come to the stage to give speeches, as well as the announcement of donation information, they are all responsible for the entertainment link, responsible for the performance of the screen, interspersed with crosswords, and set off the atmosphere, they now want me to be the host of the entertainment link." ”
Li Mu understood and asked her, "Then who are you partnering with?"
Chen Wan said: "I ...... with Teacher He"
Li Mu asked in surprise, "What's the difference?"
"yes. ”
Li Mu said: "That means that when the time comes, CCTV will have a set of hosts, and you will have a set of hosts on Xiangnan Satellite TV?"
"Yes. Chen Wan said: "Our leaders have agreed, let us both prepare, and the day after tomorrow will pass." ”
"Oh my God. Li Mu teased her: "Your Shonan Satellite TV is amazing, CCTV borrowed two hosts nationwide, and they were all occupied by your station." ”
Chen Wan said jokingly: "To be honest, the hosts of other stations are glad that they can't do it well, they all say that the epidemic situation in Yanjing is developing relatively fast now, and it is not very safe." ”
Li Mu said: "The development is relatively fast, but there is no need to worry too much. ”
As he spoke, Li Mu asked her, "Why did you come here?"
Chen Wan said: "I can only fly." ”
Li Mu immediately said: "Then I'll contact the business jet company and ask them to pick you up the day after tomorrow." ”
"No need!" Chen Wan said, "It's good for the two of us to go over by civil aviation." ”
Li Mu said: "For the sake of safety, it is better to charter a flight. ”
Speaking of this, Li Mu added, "I don't want you to take the slightest danger." ”
Chen Wan smiled sweetly and said, "I know that you feel sorry for me, but there is really no need to charter a flight, there are only six of us with assistants." ”
Li Mu couldn't help but say: "I'll let Ziwei contact the charter company later, if you don't agree, then I won't allow you to come to Yanjing, you can find an excuse to push this matter off." ”
Chen Wan said: "As far as you are the most domineering, I am just afraid that the impact of taking a business jet will not be good." ”
Li Mudao: "I will communicate with the charter company, when the time comes, they will find the airport to cooperate, privacy is guaranteed, when you land in Yanjing, I will let the driver pick you up, go home for a meal, my parents happen to be in Yanjing." ”
Chen Wan agreed without thinking and said, "Then I'll go and prepare some gifts for my uncle and aunt tomorrow." ”
Li Mu said: "Don't bother, just come to your home, you can live at home for the next few days when you come to Yanjing." ”
Chen Wan said: "In that case, wouldn't you leave Teacher He alone." ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "When the time comes, please invite Teacher He to come with me, my mother likes him a lot." ”
"Okay, let me tell him, Mr. He admires you a lot, and keeps saying that I want to get to know you when I have a chance. ”
