Tang Qin went to the editor-in-chief's office to ask, and the answer given by the editor-in-chief's office was that because the first 11 episodes had already been broadcast, it was considered a rebroadcast, so at first, CCTV broadcast it after half past nine in the evening.

"Aren't you going to sleep soon?" In Tang Qin's courtyard, Li Chengru had a bitter face, although he was no longer in the crew, but the matter of Journey to the West was still his business, and it would be broadcast during this time period, would anyone still watch it?

I don't care, I'm worthy of the audience!

This is Director Yang Jie's answer, although she is not in the courtyard, Tang Qin transferred this sentence to Li Chengru.

"The audience can't see it, I don't know, I'm still sorry for them......" Qiu Peining made a pot of tea, she is now more familiar with this courtyard than Tang Qin, "What can we do?" ”

"Make a phone call, we are actors, scene notes, and drama affairs, but we are also audiences, so we will call the editor-in-chief's office and ask for an ...... in advance" Tang Qin came up with an idea, but now BJ, a private family has a few phones.

"I have a phone at home...... Qiu Peining poured tea for the two of them, and poured a cup herself, and the tea set was also brought from home, "I'll call at night." ”

"A few of my buddies, classmates, and Fa Xiao, their unit has a telephone, so let them stay by the telephone at night," Li Chengru stood up, "I'll go and inform them to go," he stopped again when he walked to the door, "Tang Qin, are you going to install a phone here?" ”

……

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year in 1988, the complete episodes of Journey to the West were broadcast.

Jingxi, an ordinary residential building, at half past nine, adults and children wash their feet and brush their teeth and get ready for bed.

"Chirp" –

Two short sounds, the stone monkey has been born, followed by a few powerful "bell-bell-bell-bell" sounds, and the opening music "Cloud Palace Xunyin" sounded on TV.

"Mom, Mom, Mom, Journey to the West, Journey to the West!"

The child lying in the quilt didn't wear any clothes, and crawled out of the quilt wearing autumn clothes and pants, "Journey to the West, it's really Journey to the West!" ”

"It's half past nine, I have to go to bed, and I have to go to school tomorrow." When the mother talks about the child, her eyes are also rolling on the TV.

"I'm not sleeping, I want to watch Journey to the West, I want to watch Sun Wukong, don't you also want to hold Tang Seng?" The child shouted, and the majesty of the parents was no longer effective.

"Your mother doesn't want to see Tang Seng, she wants to see Tang Qin," Dang Dad laughed and teased his wife, "Yes, it's nine forty, go to bed late tonight, go to bed later, get up a little early tomorrow, you can't delay going to school......"

"Then ...... Don't sleep," when the mother put on her clothes and watched the TV, "I don't know how many episodes can be broadcast tonight, you said that it will be broadcast at 9:40, and if you say that it will be broadcast at 11 o'clock, this TV station will not let people watch it." ”

……

The house in these years is not well soundproofed.

The old man and the old lady next door didn't sleep deeply, and as soon as they lay down, they were awakened by a burst of music.

"I won't let me sleep, the TV is so loud, I have to tell them to go tomorrow......" The old man muttered and got up, "Hey, wife, listen, how do I sound like Journey to the West......"

"It's really Journey to the West," the old lady's ears are fine, "No, it stands to reason, such a big event, why didn't the newspaper even report it, so quietly broadcast?" ”

"A good drama still needs to be reported, you can just watch it......" The old man had already turned on the TV, "Old woman, get me some snacks, I'll drink some more ......"

The next day, as soon as I went to work, the agency, the factory, the school...... The greetings all over the city have changed, and as usual, everyone will ask, "Have you eaten?" or "Today, the day is good." ”

But today it has become, "Hey, did you watch Journey to the West last night?" ”

watched it, of course, it was jubilant, the state was more exciting than the building, and if you didn't watch it, you would beat your chest and stun your feet, and then scolded China TV, Journey to the West, how to put it after half past nine to broadcast it.

"Call CCTV and give your opinion." Someone has already taken action, "How did the nostalgia unblock, isn't it just that our people called?" ”

CCTV, Editor-in-Chief Office.

A deputy editor-in-chief felt smoke in his throat, and he has been answering the phone since he went to work.

However, he still had to explain patiently, "According to the regulations, the rebroadcast program cannot be placed in the prime segment, and the ...... will be considered after 11 episodes"

Before he could finish speaking, the audience member interrupted him loudly, "What other good shows do you have to squeeze out "Journey to the West"?" Do you know how long we've been waiting for it? After you put it at half past nine, you won't let us go to work the next day? ”

The audience was very angry, and the deputy editor-in-chief had to say: "Okay, good, I must report to the leader and adjust the time." ”

Li Chengru's buddies, classmates and Fa Xiao suddenly found that CCTV's phone could not go in, and not a single call went in the whole morning.

That's not all, CCTV's phone calls have been non-stop, and in the past few days, there have been a lot of letters, and many people have written to express their dissatisfaction and ask for the broadcast time to be advanced.

"It's nine o'clock early!" The editor-in-chief couldn't bear it.

But it didn't work at nine o'clock, and the telephone bombardment continued, "The children still have to go to school, the workers still have to go to work, and the cadres of the organs have to work...... If you don't advance, we'll go to China TV to find you......"

Oh, it's going to be a big deal, isn't it, for a TV series?

When the editor-in-chief finally reported the situation to the leader, the leader thought about the city and the countryside again and again, but still made a decision, "Then put the golden section." ”

……

From Harbin to Guangzhou, from Qindao to Chengdu, the whole land of China, at night, the streets are completely empty, and everyone is waiting in front of the TV.

The Spring Festival has not yet passed, and in such a lively Spring Festival, no one watches running boats, no one watches acrobatics, no one watches Peking Opera, and no one watches movies.

Everyone is watching Journey to the West

Although this TV series only has one press release, the influence of "Journey to the West" after it was broadcast far exceeded everyone's expectations.

Bang –

In the courtyard, Master Li, Tang Qin, Qiu Peining, and Li Chengru opened two bottles of beer, and when the cups touched each other, snow-white foam gushed out.

"The audience's eyes are bright," Tang Qin raised his glass and said, "I see, Journey to the West, it can be broadcast for thirty years!" ”

……

After drinking this meal, Tang Qin got up directly the next day.

"Journey to the West" was filmed for five years, and after filming, he left the original big family of the crew who was like a family, and the group life of getting up early and greedy for darkness every day, became a personal life where everything can be arranged independently, which made it a little difficult to adapt.

I finally squeezed into the bus and took off my mask to catch my breath.

Huh-

The atmosphere in the carriage seemed to be wrong, in the usual bus, everyone looked out the window indifferently, or had to look at the back of another passenger's head, but today, everyone was looking at Tang Qin.

"Comrade, are you Tang Seng?" A middle-aged uncle smiled more deatimately than his relatives.

"It's not." Tang Qin replied crisply.

"How do I think you look like Tang Seng so much," the middle-aged uncle mobilized the masses, "You see, isn't it?" ”

Not really! Tang Qin regretted taking off his mask.

"How do I look at it," the other aunt grabbed Tang Qin's arm and didn't let him put a mask on his face, "Yes, really." ”

The whole carriage immediately became noisy, and before the TV station arrived, Tang Qin finally squeezed out of the bus.

"This young man, why is he so kind-faced." An uncle looked at Tang Qin's back thoughtfully, "It seems that he has had a haircut at my place." ”

"Come on, how many heads do you have to take care of a year?" Big Mom ruthlessly exposed his lies.

The uncle was anxious, "I have a lot of heads, yes, I remember, eighty-three years, this young man has a bald head in my place, I am very impressed......"

……

Tang Qin didn't dare to take the bus, to be precise, he didn't dare to go out.

However, he didn't dare to go out, and he couldn't stand someone from coming to the door.

"Xiao Tang, we only found out today that you are Tang Seng," the old ladies with little feet from the neighborhood committee all came, and the courtyard was full of people, "Look, you kid, you hide it from us so hard, and we didn't expect that there is a big star around us!" ”

became famous at the age of twenty-five, from a little-known young boy to a well-known star, every day fans all over the country write to him, and he is overwhelmed by various invitations.

His every move has become the focus of attention, and people are even more tired.

Every day, the letters sent by the audience to China TV are sent by Qiu Peining.

"Okay, I see, Tang Qin, you have to vacate a room to store these letters, I counted them, if there are not ten thousand, there must be more than nine thousand."

Qiu Peining smiled and cut open the letters, while handling the letters, so many letters, half of which were courtship letters.

A viewer in Hunan learned that Tang Qin was slightly short-sighted and expressed his willingness to donate her cornea to Tang Qin.

An audience member in Jiangxi knew that he had suffered in the crew, and he generously donated 200 yuan in an envelope......

……

For these courtship fans, Qiu Peining usually tells them that Tang Qin is "married", and she replied like this, in Tang Qin's tone, "Now I want to say to you, I live a very happy life now, I have a beautiful wife, she also works at China TV, you should also have your own life......"

……

can't go out during the day, Tang Qin is really suffocated.

In the evening, after eleven o'clock, there was no one on the street, so he led the white dragon horse out of the courtyard.

Driving——

The white horse was running happily on the street, and there was no one on the street, all of them were watching Journey to the West at home.

"You, stop, stop......"

"Speaking of you, horseback rider, well, it's the first time I've seen a horseback riding on the streets of BJ City......"

……

In the light, several satchels surrounded Tang Qin, and two flashlights shone on his face.

"Why don't you watch Journey to the West at night?"

"It's not like you can't sleep, come out and walk the horse." Tang Qin covered his face with his hands, and the light of the flashlight was too bright for him to open his eyes.

"Hey, the young man doesn't look like a bad guy, we thought he was riding a horse to commit a crime." The year-old police officer looked at Tang Qin carefully, and then looked at the white horse under his crotch.

"Now broadcast Journey to the West, what is the case?" Another young man smiled and said, "I see how familiar you are...... You, are you Tang Seng? ”

Tang Qin felt that his eyes really couldn't be opened, and the light of more than a dozen flashlights hit his face.

"I am, I am ......"

Hey, the public security are happy, yes, you can't watch Journey to the West when patrolling at night, and you can see Tang Seng too.

But this white horse ......

"People are Tang monks, you don't let people ride horses, but let people ride bicycles." The old police officer sat back on his shoulder, "Yes, you ride yours, just when we didn't see it, bye-bye-

Comrade Tang Seng! ”
