Chapter 683: Breathtaking Second Half

Wang Lei really wanted to scold, and the others went home early to watch the opening ceremony, but they had to stay in the company and work overtime. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 But despite his dissatisfaction, he had no choice but to continue working.

At 8:40, Wang Lei finally finished his work, put his bag on his back, turned around and ran outside the company.

As soon as the bus door opened, Wang Lei immediately stepped up. It's just that as soon as he got on the bus, he frowned, the car was obviously empty, but there were several people standing in the aisle, staring at the TV on the bus, he complained in his heart, it's not a *** film, as for it?

Suddenly, Zhou Tao's voice came from the TV: "In an instant, countless birds appeared in the sky above the bird's nest, waving their wings, as if to tell us ......"

Wang Lei was shocked, took two steps suddenly, turned around and looked at the TV hanging in the carriage, it was the opening ceremony.

Wang Lei couldn't help asking, "Brother Cheng Long, did they come out?"

An audience member next to him said: "Just went down, Bruce Lee came out of the movie and had a fight with him, which was very fun!"

As a dragon fan, Wang Lei was so regretful that he pulled his thighs: "Oh, it's a pity! Today is obviously the opening of the Olympic Games, and our boss has to let me work overtime, it's just sick!"

At the same time, on the Bird's Nest command platform, Zhang Ran saw that the actors of "Flying Sky" were starting to play on the stage, and the most difficult program in the entire theatrical performance was coming! He took a breath, turned his head to Chen Weiya, the starter of the second half, and said: "Tell the children, everyone should be careful!"

After the end of the opening ceremony of the previous life, many audiences have such feelings, the countdown at the beginning, the dancing and the appearance of the picture scroll all give people a strong shock, raising the psychological expectations of the audience, but the further back the more dull it is, it looks anticlimactic.

Zhang Ran also thought the same way, feeling that there was a lack of a show like singing or movable type in the second half that would stun the audience. After he took over the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, he hoped that the second half could come up with a shocking program and put the two halves in a relatively balanced state.

However, the second half is about contemporary China, and what contemporary China can really get hold of, there are very few elements with world influence, and it is really difficult to make a shocking show!

The creative team tossed around for more than a year, but couldn't come up with such an idea.

Until May 07, Zhang Ranzhi saw the news that Chang'e-1 would be launched in the second half of the year on the Internet, and the Long March bundled rocket on the picture reminded him of the program "Building the Tower of Dreams" at the Nanjing Youth Olympic Games in his memory. It was a thrilling show with 120 actors flying up and down in the air and forming a variety of different looks, comparable to a real-life version of Spider-Man.

Zhang Ran used "The Tower of Dreams" as a model, and asked the actors to build rockets, space vehicles and other shapes at high altitude, in order to show China's dream of flying for thousands of years. It's just that when he came up with a program plan, the entire creative team thought he was crazy and felt that the show was impossible to complete, at least by manpower.

It's just that these children in front of them have turned the impossible into a possibility, but everyone who has watched the show is shocked!

At this time, 520 actors were already ready in the stadium, and the teenagers were both nervous and excited.

Although the children of the martial arts school are in good health, they are also afraid of heights like ordinary people. And the actors in the air of this show are 12 meters closest to the ground, and the highest is 42 meters. The vast majority of actors have uncomfortable reactions at the beginning of training, dizziness, vomiting after getting off the ground, and need help to walk.

What's even worse is that there are more than 200 Wias tied in the air, relying on 400 students to pull and act below, because Wias is too much and too dense, Wias is often entangled, and each actor has clearly visible scars left by Wias's entanglement.

It's just that nothing can stop the enthusiasm of the students, and tens of thousands of students throughout the school are vying for the opportunity to be selected for the performance team, and for the students, it will be a lifetime of pride to be able to perform at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

The music sounded, 520 young actors gathered in the center of the venue, the 120 actors in charge of the aerial performance, climbed into the air with WIA, two 14-year-old teenagers stood on top, became the top of the rocket, under their feet two partners completed the second layer of the rocket, and below them the rocket was being built layer by layer.

It only took fifteen seconds for the actors to complete the construction of the thirteen-story WIA, and a handsome white Chinese rocket was completed.

At this moment, at the bottom of the rocket, the LED screen on the ground appeared to breathe fire; immediately, the 400 actors around the rocket began to pull Wias, and the rocket slowly rose into the air, until it rose to a height of more than 40 meters; and the ground was an overhead shot, and the lens was pulled farther and farther, as if the rocket passed through the clouds and flew out of the earth.

After a short pause, the actors disperse in the air, changing their shapes to the music, sometimes scattering, sometimes gathering, like birds flying freely in the air.

Suddenly, the actors in the air were connected on all fours, spiraling upwards like flames, and the 400 actors on the ground rotated at high speed, like thousands of horses galloping, and each of their poses attracted a round of applause and exclamations from the audience.

Wang Lei and the passengers on the bus were all stupid, they didn't know what to say at all; Liu Yifei was also stupid, she had acted in a lot of martial arts scenes, had rich experience in Wia, and knew very well how difficult it was to do actions in the air, but now these actors, they are not just doing simple actions, but difficult actions that are difficult to complete on the ground; the United States, Britain, Japan, and countless audiences around the world have watched the incredible movements made by the actors in the air, and countless people have big mouths, which can almost stuff a goose egg.

The hosts in the studios of various national TV stations seemed to have lost their words, and they didn't know what to use to describe their inner shock, so they could only keep making "wow" exclamations.

After a brief pause, the actors regroup in the air to build new looks. Just 20 seconds later, a space station appeared in front of everyone's eyes, but anyone who pays attention to China's aerospace knows that it is the shape of Tiangong-1, which will be launched in the next two or three years.

400 WIA actors pulled WIAS, and Tiangong-1 flew in this vast universe!

The whole scene erupted in a tsunami-like applause, and even Brother Tao applauded with a smile on his face.

The Chinese's dream of flying!

Generally, there are at least 4 binding points on the actors' bodies in the high-altitude WIA performance, and each actor in this show only has two binding points on the crotch, and they rely on two WIA to perform in the air for a difficult performance;

Zhang Ran's heart was always entangled, and he kept saying: "Don't have a problem! Don't have a problem!"

After a brief flight, the actors spread out in the air, running, gathering, spinning, balancing, tumbling, and doing handstands...... To the beat of the music, they uniformly transform one difficult shape after another. The 400 performers on the ground cooperated with the performance in the air, synthesizing whirlpools, waterfalls, starry sky, and galloping horses, and the whole performance was simply breathtaking.

In a dormitory at New York University, the Harrison building was almost peeing his pants from the shock of "The Flying Sky": "Oh my God, what did I see? I saw more than a hundred Spider-Mans!" He turned to look at his roommate, "Lee, how did they do that?"

Where did Li Chengshuo know, just seeing the appearance of his roommate, he was extremely proud: "I don't know, but they are really great, I like this show!"

At the end of the six-minute program, the audience stood up and cheered, and the world burst into applause.

The sound of grand music sounded, and a huge earth slowly appeared in the center of the stage, and at the same time, images of stars such as Jupiter and Saturn appeared on the side of the bowl, and the stars shone brightly, and the whole scene became a vast universe.

The blue globe slowly rotates, and 58 actors run and tumble over the globe doing all sorts of incredible movements.

British singer Sarah Brightman and Chinese singer Liu Huan appeared on the top of the earth and sang the theme song of the Olympic Games affectionately: "I live in the same global village with you, heart to heart." For dreams, a thousand miles to meet, meet in Beijing ......"

In addition to "Me and You", the Olympic theme song also has "Ignite Passion, Pass on Dreams", "Friends Forever" and "Wishing Star" three alternatives, "Me and You" does not have the problem of not being enthusiastic enough and too lyrical, but it is most suitable for the theme of the Olympic Games, and it is also particularly in line with the atmosphere of the entire opening ceremony performance, and finally Zhang Ran still chose this song.

Accompanied by melodious singing, 2008 girls on the ground slowly stretched out their umbrellas, 2008 smiling faces of children from all over the world bloomed like flowers, the bowls above the stadium also showed the smiling faces of children, and at the same time, countless smiling faces of fireworks bloomed in the night sky......

Seeing this moving scene, even the German host Sandra, who has been chattering crookedly, was so moved that she had to admit: "The smiling faces of 2,008 children of different skin colors and countries are presented in front of our eyes, and this scene is very warm!"

At this point, the theatrical performances of the opening ceremony ended, and athletes from all over the world began to enter.

Wang Lei looked up and looked around, and pressed his head: "Oops, I've sat and stopped!"

At the same time, countless viewers began to express their opinions on the network, almost one-sided praise.

"It's an unprecedented show! I'm so excited that I can't calm down. I burst into tears when I saw the huge 'he' character composed by the performers! I don't know if Westerners who don't know Chinese characters can understand my feelings, but I really shed tears!"

"Perfect opening ceremony! It's amazing, I can only see it once in a lifetime! But I can't stand Sandra's nagging comments! She criticized the opening ceremony and China under the pretext of being independent, all she did was polluting the ceremony, I just wanted to watch the show quietly. She prevented us from listening to the little girl singing, from waiting for the people under the Chinese character guidelines to come out and surprise us, one surprise after another being deprived...... I'm signing up today because I can't be silent after you've wasted a great event!" - German netizen

"Zhang Ran deserves to be a world-class director, the whole performance is amazing, we don't have such a director in South Korea, if only Zhang Ran was Korean!" - Korean netizens

"The opening ceremony was solemn and artistic, and it would be nice to be able to watch it live. Fortunately, Spielberg quit halfway, or he had to be a standard childish and exaggerated American man. I can imagine how crazy the people in the London Organising Committee are now, the bar is raised too high, poor London! They must have thought to themselves that it would be better to lose to New York! China's performance is more perfect than perfect. Now it's up to them to see if they can take the first place in the medal table!" -- American netizen

"The BBC commentary should really be withdrawn from the commentary opening ceremony, there is so much nonsense about politics and very little about sport itself. China has done a good job, this opening ceremony is the best, be proud! I hope the London 2012 Olympics will not embarrass us too much!" -- British netizen
