Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

On the 30th, that is, the nineteenth day of the lunar month, the Spring Festival Gala program team finally notified Chen Qiming of the review results of the song "Wishing you prosperity".

This song was successfully selected for this year's Spring Festival Gala program.

After the song was successfully selected, the program team immediately arranged for Chen Qiming to start rehearsals.

Compared with some other evening programs, the Spring Festival Gala program is not just a simple party.

At this party, the audience who came to watch it was not just ordinary people.

They have leaders, they have TV news regulars.

Even, maybe when you sing on stage, there is an existence off the stage that you can't touch in your life.

So, for the success of the party, but also to avoid some other problems.

Every year, the Spring Festival Gala program needs a lot of rehearsals, and strives to be perfect in the program.

The rehearsal venue is in the CCTV studio hall where the Spring Festival Gala is held.

On the 31st, Chen Qiming came to the studio hall to start rehearsals.

Like that, there are a lot of people who come to rehearsals.

Most of the performers of this year's Spring Festival Gala are there.

As the only Hong Kong and Taiwan singer, he is not too conspicuous among them, but many people come to chat with him.

Therefore, he also met many people who participated in the Spring Festival Gala all year round.

For example, Ni Ping, the host of the Spring Festival Gala, the eldest sister of sketch actor Zhao Lirong, Song Guying from the Art Troupe, and so on.

Among them, Chen Qiming has the most dealings with Ni Ping.

For this, Chen Qiming admires her very much.

This one's hosting skills are really strong.

Last year, the mainland held a disaster relief art performance, Andy Lau said the wrong thing on stage, saying that BJ was Taipei, and he was very nervous for a while, but it was Ni Ping who took the initiative to help him solve the siege and resolve his crisis at that time.

Chen Qiming and Andy Lau often chat together.

Because Andy Lau has had the experience of going to the Spring Festival Gala several times, Chen Qiming chatted with him about some issues that need to be paid attention to after learning about the Spring Festival Gala.

Every time he talked about it, he would say that it was fortunate that Ni Ping helped him out of the siege at that time, otherwise he didn't know what would have happened.

Therefore, Chen Qiming respects her very much for this host who can control the scene and has a warm heart, not only exchanged business cards with her, but also took the initiative to invite her to a meal after the rehearsal.

Chen Qiming rehearsed in the capital for a total of five days.

It wasn't until February 4 that his rehearsals came to an end.

Because this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is the 9th, there are still five days to go.

Five days may not seem like much, but it is actually enough for Chen Qiming to do a lot of things.

Under the arrangement of the Chinese record company, he flew to the capital, Tianjin and even Shanghai, attending various commercial performances and even events.

Running commercial performances in major cities in the mainland for several days in a row has not only made a lot of money for Chen Qiming, but also further deepened Chen Qiming's influence in the mainland.

At the very least, he is no longer the existence that can only be seen in posters or VCDs in the eyes of mainland audiences.

It's much more down-to-earth.

During this period, when he went to Shanghai, Chen Qiming also inspected Peacebird's factory in Shanghai.

At present, the plant is officially operational.

A large number of garments are produced every day and then start to be shipped everywhere.

Among them, the most are shipped to Hong Kong and Macao.

In January, Peacebird began to use Chen Qiming's influence in Hong Kong and Macau to start a large-scale promotion of the company's clothing.

The effect of these promotions is very obvious, and many young people in Hong Kong and Macao have known about the clothing of the Peacebird brand.

In addition, the clothing design of Peacebird is very trendy, and Chen Qiming is a model, which has largely made the sales of Peacebird's clothing in Hong Kong and Macao enter a stage of explosive growth.

Of course, the company is still not making money at the moment.

Even, to a certain extent, is still losing money.

But in the long run, the potential of this company is still very high.

After inspecting the factory in Shanghai, Chen Qiming quickly flew back to the capital to run a few commercial performances.

In addition, after consulting with Fulong and the Chinese record company, he decided to temporarily produce a Spring Festival album EP for release.

There are three songs in total, and the first main song is naturally Chen Qiming's "Wishing you prosperity".

Subsequently, China Records and Fulong Records obtained the cover copyright of Yao Li's "Congratulations and Congratulations", the most popular singer in the forties and fifties, and let Chen Qiming continue to rearrange and sing.

Yao Li was one of the seven great singers of the Shanghai Tang era in the 40s.

At the same time, she was also the most powerful singer in Hong Kong in the 1950s, and also the highest selling singer.

She is also the idol of many singers, including Teresa Teng, Xu Xiaofeng, Pan Dihua, etc.

Because of his covers of many famous Patti Page songs, he also has the title of Patti Page in China.

The main representative songs are "Rose Rose I Love You", "Can't Get Love", "Spring Breeze Kisses My Face", "Suzhou Creek", "Congratulations" and so on.

Among them, "Rose Rose I Love You" was covered by American singer Frankie Laine (English: Frankie Laine) as the English version of "Rose, Rose, I Love You", and the single disc together with B-Side, Yao Li's original Chinese version entered the third place on the American Billboard pop chart, becoming the first Chinese singer to enter the American music pop chart.

The lyrics of this song "Congratulations and Congratulations" have two meanings, one is the joy of everyone's victory in the war, and the other is that it is used for the New Year.

Every year during the Spring Festival, in some more nostalgic places, this song is often played.

In addition to this song "Congratulations", the song of this EP was taken out by Chen Qiming.

The song is "Good Day".

However, this song was not sung by Chen Qiming himself, but Song Jiying was invited to sing.

In addition, the song "Congratulations and Congratulations" also invited Takeshi Kaneshiro to come over and sing it.

So overall, this record is not Chen Qiming's personal pure EP.

But because the two songs in the ep were created by himself, plus he participated in the production, in general, the majority of the income of this ep still belongs to Fulong Company, and the copyright of "Good Day" and "Wishing you prosperity" also belongs to Chen Qiming.

……

February 9th, the thirtieth day of the lunar month.

Chinese New Year's Eve has arrived, and the streets of BJ are covered with all kinds of red lanterns, and red couplets are plastered all over the door frames.

The sound of crackling firecrackers kept echoing.

Although today is the Chinese New Year, Lao Wang did not choose to close his audio-visual store, but came to the store as usual to open its doors for business.

When he came to the store, the first thing Lao Wang did was to find a cassette tape to play.

I rummaged through the spare tape box, "My Heart Is Too Soft", "Kiss Goodbye", "Xiao Fang", "Love Bird", and all kinds of tapes were piled up all over the box.

Glancing at the tapes, he suddenly remembered that someone from the publisher had brought him a new record yesterday.

The record is called "Wishing you prosperity".

The name sounds like a Chinese New Year.

It's the Chinese New Year, and it's the most appropriate thing to put this kind of song.

So, he rummaged through it and found the record.

Took a look at the track songs.

"Congratulations and Congratulations" - Chen Qiming.

"Wishing you prosperity" - Chen Qiming

"Good Day" - Song Jiying

are all acquaintances, Chen Qiming, a big red star in Hong Kong and Taiwan, is a big mess in the mainland, and most of the posters posted on his door are him.

And Song Jiying, the guest performer of the Spring Festival Gala for many years, Lao Wang is also very familiar with it.

"This tape should sell well!"

While thinking this, Lao Wang inserted the tape into the tape recorder and started playing.

"Congratulations, congratulations, I wish you all a happy new year and all the best!"

As soon as the tape played, it began with a monologue by Chen Qiming, wishing him a happy New Year.

Then the song began to play.

【Every street and alley】

【Everyone's mouth】

[First Sentence of Meeting]

[Just congratulations]

[Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations]

【Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations】
