Chapter 873: The Siren Are Gone

Although there are no fireworks to set off the atmosphere, fortunately, there is still this snow scene, and this year is quite lively.

As soon as the Chinese New Year's Eve passed, the Internet began to criticize the Spring Festival Gala.

Although it is difficult to reconcile everyone, it is really tiresome enough to stuff such a mouthful of soy sauce into the mouths of TV viewers across the country in the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Obviously, the excellent homework is placed in CCTV's film library, but the successor just refuses to take it out and take a look.

I always feel that I am a cow, and I think about innovation every year, but the new idea is not seen, but I see the blockage.

It's lively and joyful, is it really difficult to meet a proposition?

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Bei began to pay New Year's greetings in circles again, and ate eight meals a day, almost not supporting him to death.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Xiaoxu heard the news that Deputy Director Dai Linfeng was sick and hospitalized, and the two of them hurriedly came to visit.

The old man is over eighty years old, and his health has been bad for the past two years, and this time he ......

Looking at the situation, it is not very good.

When he came back from the hospital, Chen Xiaoxu's mood was fluttering, and Gu Bei wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say.

Not only Chen Xiaoxu, but Gu Bei also had a hunch that the old man might not be able to break through this time.

Gu Bei and Dai Lao are not very familiar, at the beginning, Dai Lao mainly assisted in the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions", although they met a few times, but they did not have too much contact.

However, Dai Lao's contribution to "Dream of Red Mansions", Gu Bei is very clear.

At the beginning, on the stage when the Red Mansion crew reunited after 20 years, director Wang Fulin once said such a paragraph.

"There has been pressure since the director of the station, and someone told Director Dai that you have been good all your life, you are very good politically, don't plant in "Dream of Red Mansions" in your later years. But at this time, he just made a board, this board, 20 years, there is such a TV series, and only then does we have a happy gathering on this day. ”

Director Wang Fulin's statement is not an exaggeration at all, if there was no Dai Lao, there might really be no "Dream of Red Mansions".

Back then, as soon as the news that CCTV was going to film "Dream of Red Mansions" was released, many people expressed doubts, thinking that "Dream of Red Mansions" could be casual?

How could Wang Fulin be able to take on the role of director?

How did a group of newcomer actors play "Dream of Red Mansions"?

Mr. Wu Zuguang, a red scientist, even said that Jia Baoyu was not born at all, where to find it?

Dai Lao, as the deputy director in charge of "Dream of Red Mansions", withstood pressure from all sides, that is, to shoot "Dream of Red Mansions".

On the stage of the reunion of the Red Chamber, he said sonorously: "I don't believe that China can't shoot our "Dream of Red Mansions". ”

Subsequently, Dai Lao also modestly said that the old and young masters present are all heroes of "Dream of Red Mansions", and they have not done anything, they just wear coats every day, swaying around, saying that this place is very good, very good, it's over, no credit.

But in reality?

Tell a thing that few people know.

During the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions", CCTV sent a producer to the crew, originally to let this person help deal with some things.

But this producer is proud of himself, and he feels that he knows everything and has to take care of everything, which has caused great disgust among the cast and crew of the crew, and no one wants to listen to him at all.

The producer was given a cold reception, and in a fit of anger, he made a small report to the station leader, saying that the men and women of the Red Mansion crew were a mess and messy.

Naturally, these things are chasing after the wind and shadows, and they are not real.

However, if the leaders of the station at that time believed him, the crew of the Red Mansion would not be able to continue filming.

Wang Fulin was so anxious that he went to find Dai Lao.

Dai Lao listened to Wang Fulin's reaction, and said a word: You shoot your scene, I will deal with this matter.

Then Dai Lao found the producer, and after a lot of criticism, he also made it clear: You are not allowed to take care of the director's affairs, and you are not allowed to interfere.

In this way, Dai Lao maintained Wang Fulin and the crew of the Red Mansion, gave the creators great trust and freedom, and ensured that the filming of the crew of the Red Mansion went on normally and smoothly.

Therefore, it can be said that without Dai Lao, there would be no 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions".

If it weren't for Dai Lao's persistence and care, maybe the audience wouldn't be able to see today's 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions".

In order to shoot "Dream of Red Mansions", Dai Lao devoted all his efforts.

From organizing the team, unifying ideas, to editing and reviewing the script, everything is done by himself.

Participating in the whole process of adaptation and filming, hiring experts, scholars, and writers to discuss the script, and finally finalizing the script by him, which requires considerable insight and courage.

Repeated revisions and reviews, day and night, for several years.

During this period, after twists and turns, in the face of various criticisms, Dai Lao has always been unwavering.

Dai Laozhi is to the Red Mansion, just like Director Ruan Ruolin is to Journey to the West, if it weren't for their support, these two masterpieces might be gone.

Looking at Chen Xiaoxu's sad face, Gu Bei also understood that the relationship between her and Dai Lao was particularly deep.

Chen Xiaoxu can be said to be the "group pet" of the Red Mansion crew back then, from CCTV leaders, directors, actors, and staff members to all of them like her very much.

Dai Lao called her "my daughter" and was full of doting on her, while Chen Xiaoxu called Dai Lao "Dai Dad", and he had to visit her every New Year's Day.

Now that Dai Lao is so sick, it has reached the point where the oil has run out, how can she not be sad.

When he was in the hospital just now, although Dai Lao was already very weak, when he saw Chen Xiaoxu, he still held his nerve to talk to her.

Before leaving, he still took her hand and told her over and over again to let her eat well.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, they learned that Dai Lao was taken home, but Gu Bei and Chen Xiaoxu understood what was going on.

The old man definitely didn't want to leave the hospital in the cold, he wanted to go home.

Sure enough, early in the morning on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Bei received a call from Zhang Li.

Dai is old.

Gu Bei hurriedly took Chen Xiaoxu to Dai's home, at this time, many people who came to mourn had already come, except for Dai Lao's former colleagues, relatives and friends, and almost all the members of the Red Mansion crew in the capital came.

Chen Xiaoxu silently shed tears and saluted Dai Lao with Gu Bei's support.

I heard Director Wang Fulin say that Mr. Dai went in the early hours of this morning, and his relatives were with him when he left, and the old man only said "I'm tired, rest for a while", and then never woke up.

According to Dai Lao's last wishes, the funeral was simple, and the body was not lost.

But how can the leadership team of CCTV agree!

Dai Lao has made such a great contribution to the development of CCTV, and three of the four famous works have been established and completed with the support of Dai Lao.

If the old man is allowed to leave so coldly, no one can accept it.

Finally, after consultation with the family, a memorial service was scheduled to be held on the 16th day of the first lunar month, and CCTV came forward to issue an obituary.

Chen Xiaoxu couldn't be affected because she was pregnant, Gu Bei and Dai Lao's family persuaded her for a while, but they still kept Dai Lao in the mourning hall for two hours, and then Gu Bei sent home.

"Don't be too sad, 89 years old is not a young age."

Chen Xiaoxu didn't say a word, no matter how much Gu Bei persuaded him, he just cried silently.

Gu Bei looked at it, and couldn't help but worry in his heart.

"Xiao Xu, you are still pregnant with a child, you have to think about the child."

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoxu finally reacted, took out a tissue and wiped his tears.

"I've been thinking about the events of that year just now, looking at his posthumous portrait, I remembered that I was in the crew at that time, every time he came over, he was wearing a windbreaker with a white shirt inside, and when he saw me, he would smile and say 'my daughter', as long as he remembered ......"

As he spoke, his voice began to choke again, and his tears were completely uncontrollable.

"I know that you and Dai Lao have a deep relationship, but you also have to think about yourself, that day we went to the hospital, Dai Lao also took your hand and said, let you eat well, he is because he knows that you will not take care of yourself, worry about you!"

Chen Xiaoxu was really pampered and grew up, she has been pampered at home since she was a child, and she obviously has a younger sister below, but she will always be the most favored child of her parents.

Later, when she joined the group to film, there was no one in the entire crew who didn't like her.

After getting married, Li Sufen treated her as her own daughter, and Gu Bei spoiled her even more.

"I know, I know, but I'm ...... Can't help it! ”

Chen Xiaoxu is a delicate and sensitive character, and what he can't stand the most is separation.

"Then ...... Remember him, don't forget Dai Lao! ”

"I won't!"

Chen Xiaoxu took a deep breath.

"Gu Bei, wait...... On the day of the memorial service, you can come with me again! ”

Gu Bei hurriedly responded.

"Well, when the time comes, let's do it together!"

In a blink of an eye, it was the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and Dai Lao's memorial service was not as lively as the death of some celebrities, all of whom came were old colleagues, relatives and friends from Taiwan, as well as members of the Red Mansion crew, and many people in other places also rushed over.

Gu Bei and Chen Xiaoxu came early, and the two of them stood silently aside, watching the memorial service go on step by step, and a leader in the stage gave a eulogy.

comprehensively reviewed Dai Lao's life, and there was one sentence that touched Gu Bei a lot: a man in Yan. A veteran soldier who was awarded for meritorious service in the security war, but did not have a military rank; An old cadre who worked in the propaganda department and dared to speak the truth was affected during the special period; An old leader who made nearly 100 actors popular, but in the end he couldn't stand up......

After the memorial service, Gu Bei and Chen Xiaoxu went home, and for several days, Chen Xiaoxu's mood was always sluggish, looking like he was seriously ill.

Gu Bei was in a hurry, and in the end, he could only invite Deng Jie, Shen Lin, Zhang Li, and Dongfang Wenying, the friends of the Red Mansion, and everyone explained together, so that Chen Xiaoxu finally came out.

It was not easy to appease Chen Xiaoxu here, and then Gu Bei was about to start getting busy.

Han Sanye talked to Gu Bei a few years ago, and he planned to organize elites from all walks of life in the industry to hold a conference to discuss the future development direction of domestic films.

Gu Bei, it was a leader above who named him, and he must participate!
