Chapter 232: Group Worship Performance

Early the next morning, Ye Zi hurriedly left home and rushed to the city hall in the center of the city to participate in the 1992 Shencheng group worship performance held this afternoon. ↖,

Every year before the Spring Festival, governments at all levels across the country will hold an event to invite representatives from all walks of life in their jurisdictions to gather together to exchange feelings and look forward to the future.

This is the group worship.

The custom of group worship has existed since ancient times, but the custom of joining the New Year's greeting was in the pre-Qing Dynasty, but the group worship at that time was at the "beginning of the year" of each year, that is, in the first month. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, this custom has been carried forward and has gradually become a regular rule. The time of the annual group worship has been moved from the "beginning of the year" to the "end of the year".

For a long time in the past, there was no performance arrangement for group worship activities in Shencheng, and it was generally in the form of tea parties. Each participant has a cup of tea, and some melons and fruits, roasted seeds, snacks, toffee, etc. are placed on the table, and everyone chats freely. At such times, the leaders will also put down their majesty and talk freely with their subordinates and representatives from all walks of life. Even if the participants occasionally took offense, most of the leaders did not care about it and laughed it off.

Group worship activities, this is a good opportunity to network, exchange views, and communicate feelings.

However, in recent years, a bottom-up trend has gradually formed in which group worship activities are getting bigger and grander. Relying on the economic development of these years, the material life has gradually become richer, and the formation of such an atmosphere can be regarded as an inevitable result. It's just that in this way, the group worship activities only have the leader's speech, and the form of everyone's exchange of speeches seems a bit monotonous. As a result, the group worship performance was proposed.

In today's group worship activities, programs and performances are basically arranged, which are placed after the leader's speech and exchange speech. The group worship activity has also evolved from the original simple and bright tea party to a grand gathering of all walks of life in the city.

For the actors, they were invited to participate in this group worship performance a year ago. It is a symbol of honor and one of the symbols of the actor's status in the circle. Although such a statement is not absolute, it is still very marketable in the actor circle.

Because of the big victory in the Xiangjiang competition, the five players of the Shencheng team were invited to participate in this group worship performance. However, the show only arranged two. One is the duet in which all five players participated, which is also the repertoire of the Shencheng team participating in the team competition in Xiangjiang. The second. is Ye Zi's solo: "The Sound of the Waves Remains".

The program arrangement of the group worship performance is still very particular.

First of all, the variety of programs must be rich, not single. Of course, singing and dancing are the main categories, and they will occupy the largest proportion wherever they go and in any performance. In addition, acrobatics, magic, and opera are also required. In Shencheng, Shencheng opera and burlesque with Shencheng characteristics are of course indispensable.

Secondly, the content of these programs must be carefully selected, and they must conform to the principles of health and positive energy. For example, singing programs. Those songs that describe love and love are best not to choose, even if there is, it must be similar to Ye Zi's "The Sound of the Waves Remains", an excellent work with elegant lyrics and beautiful songs.

Another point is that there are also certain requirements for the dress code during the performance, which needs to be formal. A pop singer like Ye Zi can go on stage in a denim suit in his usual performances, and it's best not to perform in a group worship. For this. Ye Zi will always wear the shirt and trousers of the team competition to participate in today's group worship performance.

One last point. That is, when the actors perform in the group worship, it is best not to choose some actions that are too "out of line". Or in terms of pop song singing, like Ye Zi rushing to the middle of the band to interact with the musicians during the competition, it is best to avoid it as much as possible in the group worship performance.

This kind of behavior will not add points to the actor in the hearts of the organizers.

Just after nine o'clock in the morning, Ye Zi had already arrived at the performance venue: the city hall auditorium.

Speak from the heart. Regarding such a request to gather the actors to the performance location early in the morning, Ye Zi was very unimpressed. Arriving half an hour early is about the same, and an hour early is certainly enough to be on the safe side, so why bother?

The nature of actors advocates freedom and does not like restraint. Such a requirement will not have any good effect on the actor's on-the-spot performance.

It's a pity that whether it's a TV station or any organization that holds an event, they often like to gather the actors as early as possible, without exception.

Ye Zi was able to understand what they were doing. For the organizers of these activities, such a requirement is indeed convenient for their management of actors, and basically eliminates possible misappearances.

But understanding is understanding, in his heart, Ye Zi still doesn't think so.

In his previous life, Ye Zi had been active in the night club, and such a request was a joke in the night club. For grassroots night clubs, when it's time for you to play, when you can perform on stage, then it's a qiēok. Other times, you can do whatever you like, I won't care about you, as long as you can guarantee the quality of your performances when the time comes.

Misunderstanding?

That's so easy to do.

The salary of the mistake will be deducted first, and then you will be fined a salary ranging from three to five days, to see if you will miss the scene again next time.

Wrong again? Then please get out of here immediately, actors like you who frequently miss the scene are not welcome here, and the salary will definitely not be paid to you. If you want to make trouble, no actor in any scene will support such frequent misconduct. And when the news spreads, the actor's business (performance) in the night club will definitely plummet.

No one is at odds with their own financial interests. Ye Zi has performed at night in the past 20 years, and there have only been one or two misunderstandings he has encountered or heard. More than 99% of the actors have never missed the scene.

In fact, such a measure as a night show is simple and straightforward, and it will work in any performance. I just don't know why, such measures have never been implemented in theaters, gymnasiums, television stations, etc. Only in the cave show is the same method as in the night show.

They may be reluctant to have this little power in their hands that can call the actors around, right?

Ye Zi couldn't help but use his villain's heart to quietly speculate on the inner world of those "big people".

As soon as he got off the bus, Ye Zi came to the door of the backstage passage on the west side of the city hall hall, which is where the actors enter and exit.

Today's bus went very smoothly, and the connection between the two buses did not delay any time, and the result was that Ye Zi arrived at his destination a long time ahead of schedule.

But Ye Zi didn't expect that this would be extremely "unfortunate" news for him.

"Please show your invitation letter and ID."

The entrance to the backstage passage is guarded by two powerful guards. The one on the left spoke loudly, and the one on the right looked at Ye Zi firmly, his eyes slightly vigilant.

Ye Zi shook his head and smiled bitterly, he forgot that there was still this stubble.

Every year, the bigwigs in the city basically attend, and the security work is a big event. The actors are also strictly regulated, and all actors need to show an invitation letter to enter and exit the backstage. The invitation is also restricted to backstage access, and actors are not allowed to enter the auditorium, VIP room, or any other area other than backstage. If you don't have an invitation, even if you are a high-profile star actor, the two guards guarding the entrance of the passage will never let you in.

The consequences of being unreasonable and intrusive will be very severe. The guards are heavily armed and can take what they think is the right action when needed.

It's morning, it's still early before the show, and the strength of the guards is still a little smaller. Before the show begins, the backstage access will be guarded by eight guards, and the actors' entry and exit will also be heavily checked. This situation will continue until the end of the whole group worship event and the bigwigs leave.

Ye Zi did not have a separate invitation letter, he belonged to the whole Shencheng team, and he needed to wait until Zhou Fang, who was holding the collective invitation, arrived, before he could be allowed to enter the venue.

The time of the meeting was half past ten in the morning, and I didn't know when Zhou Fang would arrive, but she definitely wouldn't come before ten o'clock.

Ye Zi, I have to wait.

Especially in a ghost weather like today. (To be continued.) )
