Chapter 196: The Thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Preparations for the Spring Festival Gala
At the time of the second rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala.
The director team of the Spring Festival Gala felt that the role of Ouyang Zhu was set to be the announcer of the radio station of the fertilizer factory, and he was the object of admiration of many female workers in the fertilizer factory.
The image should be a little handsome to be reasonable.
However, the sketch actors in Yan Lan's group are all funny, so their appearance is not very handsome.
Therefore, Shen Jilin and He Rongchang began to discuss whether to invite another popular actor to join the team and play the role of Ouyang Zhu.
If you choose a handsome actor in the actor circle, it is indeed not difficult.
No one will refuse the invitation issued by the Spring Festival Gala program team, it depends on who you choose.
"How is Zheng Yijun? It's a little handsome, but it's not so handsome that it's a play. He Rongchang thought of an actor.
This actor belongs to the type that is handsome, but not handsome enough to act.
When it comes to not playing, there is actually no fixed standard.
Some actors appear on the big screen, and the audience will feel natural and believe in the character after watching it.
However, when some actors appear on the big screen, the audience will only think that this is a star.
As long as the audience feels that this is a star at first glance, it will be difficult for the audience to enter the play.
This is also the reason why many actors want to enter the big screen and have to play ugly.
In idol dramas, the faces of those top stars don't even look like they have pores, but on the big screen, the hairs in the pores are clearly visible.
Shen Jilin nodded: "Zheng Yijun's image is in line, even if you invite you now, is it too late?" The day after tomorrow, we will have a third row. ”
At this time.
Yan Lan walked over, sat next to He Rongchang, and proposed, "Actually, I think I can let Fang Xing try, he is very handsome." He said that he had taken a musical theater class in school, and he should have a foundation in stage performance. ”
Shen Jilin frowned and wondered, "Can Fang Xing do it?" Acting is not the same as singing. ”
Yan Lan smiled heartily: "I want to know if he can do it, don't you know if you go on stage once?" After rehearsal, I felt that it was not good, so I quickly contacted the actor. ”
He Rongchang nodded and said, "That's right, wake up Fang and let him try the role of Ouyang Zhu." ”
Fang Xing heard that he was going to try out on stage, and he was not stage frightened at all.
After all, I had too much experience in stage performance in my previous life, and it can be said that standing on stage is a play.
In terms of the shape of the sound stage, not to mention crushing the fresh meat actors, it can only be said that the old drama bones have to work hard if they want to catch the play.
Fang Xing soon arrived at the rehearsal room.
He Rongchang didn't beat around the bush either, and said directly: "The director team thinks that the role of Ouyang Zhu needs to be played by a slightly more handsome actor, can you play it?" If you can't, you'll have to find another actor. ”
The role of Ouyang Zhu can be said to be the factory grass of the fertilizer factory.
If the appearance is not handsome, then this role is indeed difficult to establish.
Fang Xing didn't say too much, after all, the audience is not something that can be possessed by having rich acting experience: "I'll try it." ”
"Okay, as long as you're not stage frightened, then give it a try."
He Rongchang patted his palm with the web he was holding in his hand and shouted: "Everyone has it, all are in place, the first act of "Hello, Li Huanying" begins. ”
In the middle of the sketch rehearsal, three little hooligans in floral shirts are harassing Li Huanying played by Yan Lan.
Fang Xingren arrived before he arrived: "Stop!" You're doing something. ”
In this sketch, Ouyang Zhu played by Fang Xing is a bookish character, so he won't fight.
After Fang Xing appeared, he saw that it was three tall hooligans, and he was immediately speechless, picked up the prose in his hand and began to read, pretending to pass by.
This paragraph is a baggage.
The role of Ouyang Zhu made a grand appearance, as if he wanted a hero to save the United States, but when he saw the three hooligans, he immediately reversed and coaxed.
If this burden is to be shaken, it depends on whether the actor who plays Ouyang Zhu has acting talent.
Moreover, the performance of sketches is very different from film and television dramas.
The performance of film and television dramas can't make too big expressions, and you have to rely on micro-expressions to act.
However, the performance form of the sketch is relatively special, and there are few close-ups of the characters, so when performing, you have to make big expressions, and they are more exaggerated big expressions, and even the limbs have to match the expressions.
When Fang Xing saw the three hooligans, he immediately reversed his intent, lowered his head to read a book, and pretended to pass by.
Throughout the performance, the expression on his face was exaggerated just right.
He Rongchang's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Generally speaking, even actors in the film and television industry can't grasp the exaggeration of their expressions for the first time when they come to perform sketches, but Fang Xing does a very good job in this paragraph.
When He Rongchang saw Fang Xing's cowardly expression, he knew that this burden must have sounded.
Sure enough, in the director team of the Spring Festival Gala sitting next to him, several people had already laughed.
After the first rehearsal, He Rongchang couldn't help but stand up and applaud, praising him: "It's great, it's great." Fang Xing, are you playing extraordinarily, or is it a normal performance? Can you guarantee this level every time? ”
"Yes." Fang Xing nodded in agreement, still confident in the stage performance.
"If that's the case, you're going to be in this role, okay? It doesn't affect your other shows, right? He Rongchang asked again.
"This depends on Director Shen's opinion." Fang Xing is interested in this role, but not to the extent that he has to play it.
And there are already three programs, "Skylark", "Song of the Seven Sons" and "Young China Says", and if you put on a sketch, it can really be an hour at the Spring Festival Gala.
Shen Jilin watched Fang Xing's performance on the spot, and it was only the first rehearsal, and the effect was so good, he really couldn't think of a reason to refuse.
Besides, the book "Hello, Li Huanying" is still awake.
In terms of understanding the plot, there is no comparison with Fang Xing.
After thinking about it for a moment, Shen Jilin clapped his hands and said, "As long as you can act, I will play it for you." ”
From this day on.
Fang Xing rehearsed "Skylark", "Song of the Seven Sons" and "Young China Says" in the morning, and "Hello, Li Huanying" in the afternoon.
The schedule is very full.
Fortunately, the two songs sung are usually sung often, and the vocal skills are there, and they have reached the level of picking up the microphone and being able to go on stage at any time.
Therefore, multiple programs can be rehearsed at the same time, and they can cope with it.
……
After the third rehearsal, Fang Xing, as before, stayed in the base camp of the Spring Festival Gala all day.
All kinds of rumors are flying on Weibo, and they are getting more and more outrageous.
However, Fang Xing's studio ignored these rumors.
After the end of the third row, there was only one week left until the Chinese New Year's Eve.
At night.
Fang Xing returned to the hotel and dialed his parents' phone.
As soon as the phone was connected, without waiting for Fang Xing to speak, his parents preemptively asked:
"Did you pass the exam of the Spring Festival Gala? It's really going to be the Spring Festival Gala, isn't it? ”
"It's basically confirmed, so I can't go home for the New Year this year." Fang Xing nodded and replied, although it was separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, his parents couldn't see it.
"It doesn't matter, my parents are happy to be able to go to the Spring Festival Gala. Moreover, the Spring Festival Gala is a live broadcast, right? Chinese New Year's Eve, we can also see you on TV, right? Fang's mother was very happy, obviously it was a novel experience to be able to celebrate the New Year on TV.
"yes, and there will be several shows." Fang Xing replied with a smile.
"That's great, when the time comes, I'll call your seven aunts and eight aunts to come to your house to watch your performance." Fang's mother has already thought about how to show off to relatives and friends when the time comes.
"Come on, Mom and Dad have your back. Your dad is going to grab his phone, you tell him. Fang's mother muttered and stuffed the phone to Fang's father.
Dad Fang is the one who shushes the cold and asks for warmth, all asking: Is the weather in Kyoto cold? Is your hotel comfortable? Are you tired of rehearsing the show?
Fang Xing's answer is also the same: the hotel has central air conditioning, not cold. The rehearsals are not tiring and very fulfilling.
Although these are all truths, parents are always worried.
……
Time was spent in intense rehearsals.
The fourth platoon was followed by the fifth.
For the fifth rehearsal, the backup tape should be recorded.
The backup tape is used to prevent live broadcast accidents, and it is also used for archiving.
Therefore, the process of the fifth row is almost exactly the same as the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala.
After the end of the fifth row, two days apart, it is the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Fang Xing stood in front of the window of the hotel, looking at the red lanterns on the streets of Kyoto, and felt the strong smell of the New Year.
This is the case during the Spring Festival in China, when red lanterns are hung on the trees and street lamps on both sides of the street.
It's like two long red dragons, picking up and dropping off people returning home.
This is the first Spring Festival for Fang to wake up to this world.
Looking at the festive red on the street, Fang Xing felt a little lonely.
I don't know when it started, Fang Xing has begun to like this world, and because he likes it, he is afraid of losing.
Fang Xing pressed his palm on the window, feeling the cold outside the window.
At this time, the doorbell rang.
Fang Xing walked over and opened the door.
Lu Xiang'er opened her arms, revealing a big smile, and said, "It's about to be the New Year, I'll come over to greet you in advance, are you surprised?" ”
She was dressed in a down jacket, a beanie hat on her head, her ears were covered with shaggy earmuffs, and she wore gloves on her hands, apparently braving the cold wind.
Without waiting for Fang Xing to speak, Lu Xiang'er went into the room by herself, closed the door, rubbed her hands and muttered, "It's so cold outside." ”
Fang Xing felt the joy of the Spring Festival just now, and at the same time felt a trace of loneliness.
When I saw Lu Xiang'er at this time, I couldn't help but hug her into my arms, hugged her tightly, and hugged her for a while.
"I only saw it in the morning, why is it so clingy all of a sudden?" Lu Xiang'er said this, and her heart was sweet.
"I just feel a little lonely." Fang Xing carried her to the sofa and snuggled together.
Lu Xiang'er touched Fang Xing's face with her hand and said with concern: "Are you too tired from rehearsal?" ”
"It's fine." Fang Xing shook his head.
"That's not going home for the New Year, it's okay, I'll accompany you for the New Year this year." Lu Xiang'er hugged Fang Xing's neck and stroked his back with his hand, looking comforting.
Lu Xianger also has to go to the Spring Festival Gala, so she can't go home for the New Year.
However, Lu's mother has been staying in Kyoto to accompany her, so she doesn't feel lonely.
Fang Xing reached out and pinched her face, and said with a smile: "I'm fine, don't worry." ”
Lu Xiang'er pillowed on Fang Xing's shoulder and spent time leisurely: "Tomorrow's Spring Festival Gala performance will go very smoothly, right?" ”
She also has something nervous about, and that is the fear of going wrong on the show.
She is nervous every time she performs, the more important the performance, the more nervous, the Spring Festival Gala can be said to be the most important party for Chinese people.
So when Lu Xianger thought that she was going to perform tomorrow, she was inevitably a little worried.
"Is it as nervous as the Paganini Tournament?" Fang Xing asked with a smile.
"Not really, the game is still more intense. This time, you don't have to compare yourself with others, just perform your own part. Lu Xiang'er said with a smile.
"Isn't that enough, the game is won, will there be any problems with the evening performance?" Fang Xing smiled to soothe her nervousness.
"With you playing the piano, I will feel much more at ease." Lu Xiang'er hugged her tighter, and the corners of her mouth were sweet smiles.
……
The next day.
It was the most solemn day of the Chinese people, the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Thousands of households put up lanterns to welcome the New Year.
The Central Taiwan Spring Festival Gala is also making final preparations.
The venues in five cities across the country entered the final state of preparation at the same time.
At that time, there will be branch venues in Donghai, Yangcheng, Xiangjiang and other cities to perform together.
The main venue of the Spring Festival Gala is the No. 1 studio hall of CCTV, and the others are branch venues.
The performances at the sub-venues will be broadcast to the main venue via satellite signals.
All the singers, actors, and celebrities began to report in the morning, then put on makeup, and made final preparations to prepare for tonight's Spring Festival Gala.
Fang Xing was in the dressing room, and saw many singers and actors, who were silently chanting something in their mouths when they were putting on makeup.
At a glance, I knew that they were reciting the lyrics silently, seizing the last time to memorize the lyrics, even if they were already ripe, they were still afraid of making mistakes on stage.
It was six o'clock in the afternoon.
The Spring Festival Gala program team distributed a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to all the staff and stars attending the gala.
Fang Xing took a few sips, but he didn't dare to do it many times.
Because the performances of "Skylark", "Song of the Seven Sons" and "Young China Says" were relatively early, not long after the Spring Festival Gala began, they were about to go on stage.
……
Meanwhile.
Thousands of households across the country are staying in front of the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
In a small community in Baitang Town.
Fang's father and Fang's mother invited relatives and friends, and after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, they all came to the house to watch TV.
Generally speaking, in the thirties of the Chinese New Year's Eve, families are reunited at home, and rarely go to the door.
This time is different, though.
Fang's father and Fang's parents' relatives and friends, after eating the reunion dinner, those who live close to each other, all rushed to watch the Spring Festival Gala together before eight o'clock.
Because this year's Fang Xing is going to the Spring Festival Gala.
Some relatives didn't believe it, and asked vigorously: "Sister-in-law, is it true?" Fang Xing is really going to the Spring Festival Gala? Will you be able to see him on TV later? ”
"Yes, surely, he said it himself, he has several shows to be on." Fang's mother replied with an oath.
"What kind of show are they? It can't be a backup dancer or something, right? If it's a backup dancer, it doesn't necessarily have a camera. "Relatives still feel that the Spring Festival Gala is too far away from them, so they feel very strange, and instinctively don't believe it.
"Impossible! Our son must have the most shots in the Spring Festival Gala. Fang's mother didn't know where her confidence came from.
