"How do we maintain our sales? We just change brands every so often, every three days! It turns out that the one we produce is called the 'dung beetle brand'. Later we looked in the dictionary and found out that the dung beetle is a dung beetle?"
Damn it, do you think this brand will no longer stink?"
Ma Ji smoked a cigarette and talked while smoking.
The audience burst out laughing, especially Li Guyi, who was very close, clapped his hands and laughed hard.
"..."
Chen Qi scratched his head. Subjective emotions were important. He really didn't think it was that funny.
This is a one-liner created by Ma Ji, which satirizes the false propaganda of illegal manufacturers and deceives consumers. For this reason, he went to the relevant departments to ask if there were "Universe Brand" cigarettes. After he was sure that there were not, he felt free to create it.
However, after this Spring Festival Gala, Universe brand cigarettes really came out, and they have always been popular.
"If you don't smoke my cosmic cigarettes, you won't have a happy family! If you don't smoke my cosmic cigarettes, you young people won't be able to find a partner! If you don't smoke my cosmic cigarettes, you students won't be able to get into college...
…”
"Remember the telegram registration: one push, six, two, five; the telephone number: no matter three, seven, twenty-one!"
"Hahaha!"
"Ha ha!"
In the early 1980s, these phenomena had just emerged, and perhaps the audience resonated with them. But for Chen Qi, he had seen too many unscrupulous merchants and too many jokes. Is this still a big deal?
Of course, he respected the contemporary nature and kept the program instead of taking it down.
The on-site effect was very good.
The audience in front of the TV must also be jumping up and down.
"Whoosh!"
Ma Ji left the stage with warm applause and completed his only program in this Spring Festival Gala. He glanced at Chen Qi who was on the side stage. After all, he was a famous person, a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and an executive director of the Chinese Music Association. How could a junior be so confident?
.
But at another glance, Zhu Muzhi and Wu Lengxi were sitting in the background.
"Don't do it next year. I hope he will do what he says!"
Ma Ji shook his head, changed his clothes, and returned to the auditorium to sit down.

Li Lingyu wore ethnic costumes, combed her hair, big earrings, and bare feet. She danced and sang on the stage. Her big eyes flickered, and she had white teeth when she smiled.
After "Universe Brand Cigarettes", three programs later, Chen Qi asked Li Lingyu to appear and sang two so-called Taiwanese folk songs "Liu Liu She" and "Girl from Alishan".
"Girls from Alishan are as beautiful as water, and young men from Alishan are as strong as mountains..."
These two songs are not Taiwanese folk songs.
"The Girl from Alishan" was created in mainland China in 1949. Many people mistakenly believe that it is a folk song of the Taiwanese Gaoshan people, but it is not.
Li Lingyu appeared on the Spring Festival Gala last year and sold 800,000 cassettes. She has become quite famous. As soon as she came on stage, all the gay men's eyes lit up and they couldn't help but feel happy, as if they had eaten candy.
This is a sweet girl!
What is the current mainstream aesthetic? Liu Xiaoqing's big face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, rosy and healthy. But does everyone really like it? Of course not, just like some people like on top, like on bottom, like breasts, like feet,
xp cannot be taught to outsiders.
So Li Lingyu is actually a minority in this era.
But her market is huge.
"Both of these songs are very nice!"
"Hey, have you memorized the lyrics?"
"How can I remember it? I want to listen to it again!"
"By the way, let's call!"
"Whoever is on duty in the factory today, let him call and ask Li Lingyu to sing another song!"
The audience's on-demand broadcast was even more enthusiastic than last year, because many people had made preparations in advance. Mainly residents of the capital, with occasional long-distance calls, flooded into CCTV and continued to deliver orders one after another.
Chen Qi read them one by one and shook his head secretly: "Poor people, they really thought they were watching on demand."
If the on-demand service is suitable, I will go with the flow. If it is not suitable, I will pretend not to see it.
"There is no need to give me Li Lingyu's order, she will not come on stage again."
Huang Yihe looked at him from the side and said that he was partial but treated everyone equally, and said that he was not partial but arranged for his own people. He was a very contradictory guy.
Chen Qi took the program list and sketched it with a pen.
After Li Lingyu's three shows, "Lazy Man Dating", and three more shows, Zhang Mingmin sang, with 3-4 shows as intervals, and every other period should arrange a song that can bring about climax.
This was followed by "A Day in the Life of a Heroic Mother", "The Great Wall Will Never Fall Down" and "Mutton Skewers", with Fei Xiang being the finale.
…………
"Please enjoy the sketch "Lazy Man Dating" below!"
"Whoosh!"
When I heard that it was a sketch, the whole audience was very happy. I experienced the beauty of sketches last year and felt that this form of performance was very flexible, had strong dramatic conflicts, and was easy to shake things up.
And the next second, the laughter suddenly escalated.
I saw Song Dandan wearing a small floral jacket, a green scarf, and two pigtails, squirming like a quail on the stage.
"Lazy Man Dating", as the name suggests.
It tells the story of a lazy man who meets someone with a poor family, but he only has money. A cardboard box is covered with cloth to pretend to be a TV, a bunch of balloons are covered with cloth to pretend to be a sofa, etc., and they are eventually discovered...
The woman only wants to watch TV, but he is overwhelmed with all kinds of cover-ups. This is a dramatic conflict.
How is that different from later sketches?
The sketches of the 80s and 90s, such as the lazy man being spotted, the woman turns around and leaves, satirizing the lazy group, the logic is extremely smooth.
The sketch in later generations is: The lazy man was discovered, but he had a reason! He got sick and lost the ability to work in order to save others, and then the woman was moved and decided to create a better life with him and make dumplings together!
This is an illogical turn because the tone must be positive.
And when this skit was played on the TV screen, it was:
Performers: Song Dandan, Lei Kesheng, Bai Zhidi.
Creators: Chen Qi, Liang Zuo.
"My name is Wei Shufen, female, 29 years old, and still unmarried!"
"I'm really sorry. My eyesight is not very good, so I kicked this thermos bottle to pieces!"
"Hahaha! This skit is so funny!"
"Who is this actor? Song Dandan? She did a good job!"
Aunt Dandan is talented, not to mention Lei Kesheng and Bai Zhidi. The three of them work together very well.
Especially since she insisted on watching TV, the two of them had no choice. The village chief held the cardboard box and put his head in to announce the news: "According to CCTV... the score on the field was 2:0..."
The whole audience burst into laughter.
Li Guyi burst into tears. Jiang Da was leaning forward and back in joy. Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao also slapped their thighs. Although Liang Xiaolong didn't quite understand, he understood the meaning and grinned.
The good thing about skits is that they can be performed with rich body movements.
…
"Hahaha!"
In a courtyard next to the red wall, just like last year, the senior leaders were loyal spectators of the Spring Festival Gala. The hall was filled with children and grandchildren, and the atmosphere was very lively. The atmosphere was also very good, and I was amused and laughed heartily.
“I think the sketches are more interesting than the cross talk!”
"Well, I feel the same way."
"There is no superior or inferior art form, it's just that the creation is better."
The senior leaders were chatting with their children and grandchildren, and couldn't help but think that after watching the competition between the Ministry of Culture and CCTV, the comrades from the Ministry of Truth came to report excitedly, and even pretended that this year's Spring Festival Gala was very interesting, absolutely wonderful, and had great intentions.
.
I have watched it for more than an hour now, and it is indeed very exciting, but I can’t see the intention.
Maybe in the back.
Chapter completed!
