Chapter Twenty-Six: Waiting
When Lang Kun shouted the slogan "True Singing", some of them were quite supportive, thinking that it was respecting the audience.
After the last rehearsal, the chorus of Locke and Jinsha finally stayed, and the cooperation between the two has been quite tacit, and the singing effect is also very good.
Chinese New Year's Eve is a day for the whole family to reunite, eat reunion dinner, watch the Spring Festival Gala, and set off fireworks. These three things are a must-do for every family. When the whole country is filled with a happy and happy atmosphere, the actors of the Spring Festival Gala crew are now the busiest and most nervous.
It was broadcast live across the country, which made many actors nervous. In the dressing room, singers and dancers lined up to put on makeup, and some hurriedly put clothes on their bodies, and they did not avoid suspicion.
Locke and other slightly famous stars each occupy a corner and whisper. They have their own makeup artists and stylists, and they put on their makeup early and wait on the side.
Because of the duet, Locke changed his outfit. He and Jin Sha wore a couple outfit, and the two looked young and energetic. The two sat together and listened to the same mp3, which made some CCTV reporters inadvertently take a photo.
These may be the two most chic people in the backstage of the Spring Festival Gala. Locke wore a bright red hoodie, and the red clothes were invisibly in tune with the festive atmosphere. The coat is printed with a white five-pointed star, positioned exactly at the heart.
The simple and clear design makes this dress look fresh and generous, and Locke and the two are in excellent figures, and they wear this dress with their own charm.
Jinsha's hair was in a hair ring, and the slightly curly hair swayed gently behind her head with her movements, which reminded Locke of Jinsha's innocent appearance in the TV series "Eighteen-Year-Old Sky".
Locke's hair was vigorously groomed by the stylist, and after spraying a layer of hair wax, his hair looked a lot softer, and the slightly slanted bangs made him look a lot fresher, and the masculinity in his bones was also a little more restrained.
The live broadcast officially started at eight o'clock, and the actors of the first few shows were already ready backstage, just waiting for the director's order. Jinsha, who didn't feel anything, seemed to be frightened by this scene, she looked at Locke, then at the dancers who comforted and encouraged each other, and then frowned and said, "I can't remember the lyrics a little, what should I do." ”
At this time, the little girl who was in charge of singing "Auspicious Three Treasures" ran in front of Locke and said to him: "Big brother, can we take a picture? My mother and sister like you." ”
She looked up and looked at Locke earnestly, looking at Locke with her innocent eyes, expecting his reply.
Jin Sha pulled the corner of Lalock's clothes with her hand and whispered, "Why are you standing, I'll take a picture of you." After getting along for the past few days, the two have become ordinary friends.
The little girl's eyes were like crescents, and she seemed to be in a good mood. Locke patted her on the head, then smiled, "What about the camera you used to take pictures?
Sticking out her tongue mischievously, the little girl ran back to his uncle and got the camera from him. Locke smiled at the two MGZ dressed men and said hello in the air.
Jinsha acted as a videographer and took several pictures of Locke and the little girl.
It was just an episode, but Jinsha's mood had noticeably improved. She patted her chest, inadvertently revealing a little spring, just a little taller than her.
Turning his head, Locke didn't see anything, he said to Jin Sha: "Don't worry, we have practiced so many times, and you don't think that this is a live broadcast across the country, it is just an ordinary party, and there are not many viewers below, so don't worry at all." ”
Jin Sha pursed her lips and said, "That's naturally right. But I can't help but think of that place. ”
Time passed quietly in the conversation between the two. Neither of them went to see any shows, after all, they had watched the previous rehearsals several times, and now they are not interested at all.
But after a group of singers finished singing, the hearts of the two Locke hung up. In the pop style in 2005, pop singers were defeated one after another, and ordinary audiences may not be able to hear it, but Locke and the two are professionals.
Pang Long's "You Are My Rose" has been half a beat slower, and it has not changed after singing it. And Lin Junjie's "A Thousand Years Later" has a mediocre performance, and there is no merit or fault.
This undoubtedly increased the pressure on Jinsha and Locke. In fact, if they don't sing well, there won't be many people scolding, after all, the general trend is here.
The next show is Zhao Benshan's, although the performance lasts 16 minutes, the audience still watches it with relish. Locke and the others stood on the elevator, feeling a little heavy, especially when they heard the bursts of laughter and applause from the audience.
Either way, the show still has to go on. Locke nodded with Jinsha, and the two were quite far apart, at opposite ends of the stage. Locke silently put a skill on himself and Jinsha, at least so that the two of them would not perform too badly.
Uncle Benshan's performance finally ended, and Locke turned the microphone in his hand and went up with the lift.
"Twitter, pouting passerby child, you stand on the terrace. Sunshine squints at us, and at the same time, finds love. "The people haven't appeared yet, but the singing is already loud through the loudspeakers.
After the two figures appeared on the stage, the camera gave Locke a close-up, and the audience in front of the TV clearly saw him. Underneath the stage is flowing water, which looks colorful under the lights.
As an actor, Locke showed a shy expression as he sang, and then looked at Jinsha. The dancers around him were dancing diligently and looked soothing.
"Mutter whether I should or not, let you see through, the tacit understanding of ice cream is love" Jin Sha slowly walked forward, with a sweet and shy look on her face, and then held her face with her hand.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then got closer and closer, and finally Locke's thick palm held Jinsha, Jinsha bird leaned on his shoulder like a human, and the two of them shook gently to the rhythm.
There was also a little cheer from the audience, most of them young people clapping.
The two held hands and sang together: "The flowers bloom very well, the wind blows very well." As long as you are good in everything, the fragrance of love wafts in the air. ”
Time passed quickly, and the singing of the two ended. Under the cover of the dancers, Locke and the two successfully withdrew from the stage.
There was no mistake, and the perfect performance of the two Locke conquered some audiences. But more viewers still don't buy their accounts. It's not something they can change, they've done the best they can.
Back backstage, Jin Sha wiped her tears excitedly, she covered her mouth, and felt like she couldn't cry. Locke was surprised, no matter how excited he was, he couldn't do this.
Jin Sha's senior brother Lin Junjie hadn't left yet, and he quickly came over to take a look after seeing Jin Sha crying. After saying goodbye to Locke, Jin Sha and Lin Junjie left together.
Locke was left alone to say goodbye to the extras and chat with the other actors or something. When the Spring Festival Gala is over, Locke still needs to play once, and now that his performance is over, he can naturally look at others easily.
The Spring Festival Gala is over, and Locke's task is complete. Instead of looking at his mission rewards, he focused on the comments in the media. This is his first time on the Spring Festival Gala, and it is his wish to be recognized by the media and the audience.
The newspaper reviews have not yet come out, but all sorts of comments on the Internet have come out.
From the opening dance to the pop skewers to the song chorus, the Spring Festival Gala continued to adhere to their "crowd tactics", which dazzled the audience and didn't know what to do. It's easy to wait for Hong Kong and Taiwan pop singers to appear, but I didn't expect Lin Junjie and twins to end without singing two sentences.
In addition to a bunch of people performing each song, in tonight's performance, there are really too many "familiar faces", Man Wenjun, Cai Guoqing, Jiang Dawei...... These "out-of-style" singers are really inspiring.
The only thing that can lift my spirit is the duet between Locke and Jinsha, a very fresh and hazy love song, although the quality is not very good, but it looks much more dazzling against the backdrop of other songs. ”
Indeed, Locke posted a status on his Weibo and continued to browse the comments of netizens. He himself knows that this year's Spring Festival Gala is destined to be a failure, and the Spring Festival Gala has indeed reached a turning point in history, and it will be too late if it doesn't change.
The previous Spring Festival Gala became popular with a large number of people and a large number of songs, and those are the directors who really think about the Spring Festival Gala and have a unique vision, not this increasingly commercialized and decadent CCTV.
Looking at the previous songs, "A Fire in Winter", "Meet Ninety-Eight", and "My Chinese Heart", which one did not become famous from the Spring Festival Gala and then swept the whole country? However, since entering the new century, almost none of the songs have been able to reach the previous level.
Although Locke also knows that his song is at best familiar to the audience, it is almost impossible to rely on it to become popular. However, the previous solo song "I Believe" has this potential, but unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to sing it.
But this year, after the gorgeous stage of the Spring Festival Gala passed by in a flash, there were no new songs and newcomers left to show off. It seems that the Spring Festival Gala, which has lost its audience popularity, will gradually lose the trust of newcomers who dream of becoming famous overnight, even if it is Haidie Records, which has spent a lot of money to enter the Spring Festival Gala, it is estimated that they regret it.
Because Jinsha's light is completely dependent on Locke's, the quality of just an ordinary duet song can't make her popular.
This year's Spring Festival Gala is quite a bit of a "rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats" feeling, on the Internet, the Spring Festival Gala was criticized for being incomplete. From the style to the specific singers, this year's Spring Festival Gala seems to be more commercial.
He made a lot of money by naming the giant panda, and even Locke sent a text message to Tuan Tuan Tuan to vote, but he didn't expect to be charged. This has aroused unanimous condemnation from the whole country.
Closing the computer with a heavy heart, Locke threw himself directly on the soft bed, knowing that he shouldn't have been cheeky to go to the Spring Festival Gala. I didn't say anything cheap, and I made a fuss.
When he opened the system, Locke thought he could see the system's task rewards, but after entering the task page, he saw that the task was still in progress and had not been completed. This surprised him, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Please note that the quest has not been completed and the reward cannot be claimed. The system's reminder made Locke scratch his head, the stage of the Spring Festival Gala has already passed, why is it not finished?
He knew that this Spring Festival Gala was a bit of a failure, but he didn't expect it to be so miserable.
Lying on the bed tossing and turning and unable to sleep, Locke suddenly sat up, looked out the window at the dark night sky, and remembered himself. I didn't watch the Spring Festival Gala before, as long as I didn't like it very much, if it wasn't for accompanying my mother, I wouldn't have watched it. Since becoming a dragon set, I haven't watched the Spring Festival Gala anymore, first, I don't have time, and second, I don't have the mood.
Although the younger generation regards the Spring Festival Gala as chicken ribs, they will still accompany their parents to watch it on the evening of 'Chinese New Year's Eve'. In order to accompany his parents during the New Year, watching the Spring Festival Gala is part of the New Year. This has long been a habit of parents' generation. Maybe if there is really no Spring Festival Gala, everyone can only be stupid.
Forcing himself to sleep, Locke gave himself a little hypnosis to get a good night's sleep.
Eight hours had passed, and by the time Locke woke up, it was almost noon, and no one bothered him, mainly because Locke had turned off his phone.
Today is a rare good weather, the sun is shining, shining warmly on the body. The snow in the garden is slowly melting a little. Pull back the curtains and let the warm sunlight shine into the room, and the somewhat cluttered room suddenly brightens up.
Rubbing his eyes, Locke yawned and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his voluminous pajamas, opening his hands to meet the sun.
Eating breakfast leisurely, Locke took the newspaper through the crack in the door and read it carefully. Without exception, these newspapers are all reporting on this year's Spring Festival Gala. Every year, the Spring Festival Gala is controversial, and the audience is getting more and more disappointed year by year.
