149 Spring Festival Gala

As the end of the New Year approaches, the atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger.

Every household is decorated with lights and colorful colors, every household is lively, and the streets and alleys are surrounded by the atmosphere of the New Year. After a busy year, the people finally put down all their burdens and easily lived a few days of immortal life.

But in a certain place in the capital, the atmosphere is getting more and more tense and feels more and more depressing. Many people are busy and busy.

There is no trace of New Year atmosphere here.

The closer we get to the end of the year, everyone becomes more and more nervous.

Here is the studio of CCTV Spring Festival Gala.

New Year's Eve is coming soon, but the program arrangement has not yet been finalized. There are several programs that always have such problems or such problems. Director Huang Zhi and the deputy directors are still busy rehearsing. There are several programs that are not available in the end, and everyone is still arguing.

Some programs are getting worse and worse, which is heartbreaking.

"The next program, "Soldier's Flower", prepare." Director Huang Zhi shouted with the walkie-talkie.

As soon as his voice fell, a short, fat and fat assistant director trotted in sweat.

"Director, Ma Mei has something wrong."

"What?" Director Huang Zhi's face darkened, and his already gloomy face became even more ugly.

Ma Mei is the lyricist, songwriter and one of the singers of "The Flower of Soldiers".

This song is a chorus, with Ma Mei and Lin Xiangdong together, and a male voice chorus. This is a very important program in the Spring Festival Gala.

But now, if Ma Mei has a problem, this song may be in a little trouble.

After coming back to his senses, Director Huang Zhi let out a light breath and suppressed his riot again.

These days, such things have emerged one after another. Logically, he should have been numb to such accidents. However, the Spring Festival Gala has a great impact and he cannot ignore it, but he has no choice but to do anything. After all, many things are really out of his control, so the only thing he can do is to calm down as much as possible and then find a way to solve the problem.

"What's wrong with him?" Director Huang Zhi asked as calmly as possible.

"The doctor said he couldn't get out of bed within a week..."

"Can't get out of bed for a week?" When the director Huang Zhi heard this, his blood pressure that had just calmed down suddenly soared to the high place.

He was just now secretly hiding a hint of gratitude, thinking that the other party had a cold or a hoarse voice at most, so using a little trick to solve the problem, such as giving injections to the vocal cords, but now, the other party can't get out of bed for a week, so his only hope will be shattered.

The assistant director looked at him carefully and explained in a low voice: "Ma Mei was hit by a car on the way here and had a broken calf. She couldn't get out of bed for a week."

Director Huang Zhi let out a long sigh.

Now that things have come to this point, it’s useless for him to get angry anymore. The only solution is to calm down as soon as possible and solve the problem.

"You go and call Lin Xiangdong to my office." Director Huang Zhi said.

"Okay." The deputy director flew away as if he was amnesty.

Director Huang Zhi thought while walking towards his office.

This program is impossible to cut off, or in other words, there must be one program of this type, because it is a military song, and every year's Spring Festival Gala must have a certain number of military songs. This is the default rule for everyone, so there must be one program of this type, or this type of program.

But the problem now is that "Flowers of the Soldiers" is a chorus, and now there is one missing, and it is the most important one. This song is not suitable and must be replaced.

But which one should I change?

He searched all the songs in his mind, but couldn't find the right one.

Just when he was worried, Lin Xiangdong came.

"Director, are you looking for me?"

"Lao Lin, your song with Lao Ma..." Director Huang Zhi started the first time, but he didn't say the following words. He believed that at this time, it might be more appropriate to let Lin Xiangdong make his own decision than to give orders by himself.

Although he is the director of the Spring Festival Gala and has great power, once the troops are involved, even if it is him, he has to be careful.

That's why he speaks so cautiously at this moment.

Lin Xiangdong's face was not good-looking, and his face was also gloomy.

He seemed to have just returned from the hospital, with a faint smell of disinfectant. Although this smell was not strong, it made the director Huang Zhi, who had severe rhinitis, very uncomfortable.

After listening to the words of director Huang Zhi, Lin Xiangdong pondered for three or four seconds. After that, he raised his head, his eyes no longer had the dimness he had before, and there was a kind of peace of mind.

He seemed to have thought of a solution.

"Director, do you think this is OK? Since Lao Ma can't play on stage, then we will change the chorus to solo, and I will sing solo by myself."

"Sounding?" Director Huang Zhi frowned.

Of course, solo is OK.

In fact, although he prefers chorus and solo, he is not without negotiation.

He was worried about only one problem, sing solo, so what song would you sing?

Lin Xiangdong's singing skills are naturally unquestionable. National first-class singers have all the skills and experiences. But the problem is that Lin Xiangdong used to mainly sing military songs. Those songs were somewhat well-known in the small circle of the army, but once the scope was expanded to the whole country, the problem arose, and many of his songs were not well-known.

The highest is the song "We Are the Soldiers", but the problem is that someone has already sung that song on this year's Spring Festival Gala, and it is a combination of choruses and singing and dancing.

Therefore, Lin Xiangdong must not be able to sing the song "We Soldiers", but other songs... are not well-known, and they are not suitable for programs like Chunwang.

Director Huang Zhi listened to Lin Xiangdong's words and did not refuse, but instead reminded him tactfully: "Lao Lin, it's OK to sing solo, but do you have a suitable song?"

"There is no now, but there will be something soon." Lin Xiangdong said confidently.

What's the meaning?

Director Huang Zhi raised his eyebrows.

Could it be that Lin Xiangdong wants to ask someone to write a new song?

New song?

His heart jumped up.

Singing new songs on the Spring Festival Gala is not bad, but it is a huge challenge.

Since it was its first appearance, the audience was unfamiliar with it and could not resonate with it. Therefore, if the audience in front of the TV cannot be impressed immediately, the entire work will be extremely failure.

If it is a festive song like the New Year, it would be better, but military songs...

Director Huang Zhi's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

To be honest, if Lin Xiangdong is determined to persevere to the end, then he doesn't have many ways. For the people in the army, his consistent principle is to try not to offend them if they can, so-

But if Lin Xiangdong didn't fire this shot without a good work, then the director... he... must be responsible for it!

He doesn't want that either.

This is his first time directing the Spring Festival Gala, but he doesn't want to ruin the reputation he has finally accumulated.

Lin Xiangdong seemed to know the worries of director Huang Zhi, and did not hide it. He directly said his thoughts: "Director, this is what I think. I want to ask Chen Fei to help me create a new song."

Chen Fei?

Director Huang Zhi heard this and looked up at Lin Xiangdong, his dim eyes lit up a little.

"How confident are you to ask Chen Fei to help you write a new song?"

"Eighty percent!" Lin Xiangdong said confidently.

He is very confident.

But this confidence is not blind optimism, but comes from long-term management and understanding.

Since he met Chen Fei, he has never let the line break. He often calls Chen Fei, talks about the literary and artistic circles, or brags about it in a mess.

Sometimes he also invited Chen Fei to have dinner together. He had something good, such as tea, wine, or something. He also thought about Chen Fei and gave him some to others from time to time. He would flow slowly and moisten things silently. Through this long-term management, he and Chen Fei are now considered to be infatuated with each other and have a very good relationship. They can talk about national affairs together, chat and spank together, and even comment on a woman together;

In addition to this reason, the reason why he is so confident is that he understands Chen Fei.

He even spent several days pondering Chen Fei's personality.

Finally, he came to a conclusion with great confidence: Chen Fei is a trustworthy person. If you treat him sincerely, then when you need him, he will definitely be at your disposal.

Therefore, he was so confident at this time.

Director Huang Zhi looked at Lin Xiangdong, and his thoughts turned sharply like lightning: Chen Fei was 80% likely to agree to Lin Xiangdong, but this creation was a topic-setting essay, which was very difficult and time-limited, so Chen Fei might have completed his creation on time for 50%.

The proportion of 50% is not high, but this is an amazing achievement for the creation at this moment. You should know that this is the Spring Festival Gala. The type, style, and even duration of this song have special requirements.

If you are an ordinary person, even a nationally renowned creator, those so-called genius lyricists or songwriters, have a 20% chance of being a 20% chance of it, that would be very amazing.

But because it was Chen Fei, Huang Zhi felt that the possibility should increase significantly, reaching 50%.

After thinking for a while, Huang Zhi made the decision: "Okay, Lao Lin, then you can call Chen Fei."

He immediately added: "Call now, call here, use my office landline."

"It's better to use my phone?" Lin Xiangdong said.

"Okay!" Huang Zhi nodded, and he also agreed with Lin Xiangdong's suggestion that it was the end of the year. Generally, no one wanted to be disturbed by the outside world anymore. Everyone just wanted to be with their family quietly and spend the New Year well. So when they saw that they were unfamiliar numbers, they might hang up, so it is more appropriate to just call with their mobile phone.

However, the director team has regulations that no matter who it is, as long as it comes to the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal site, you must hand over your mobile phone and cannot hide it privately.

The reason for doing this is to make everyone devote themselves to rehearsals wholeheartedly, and the second reason is to keep it confidential. After all, the Internet is becoming more and more developed now. If you don’t pay attention, the program will be leaked and lose its mystery. The attractiveness of the Spring Festival Gala may be greatly reduced.

Although CCTV's news has reported on Chunwang in various ways, some key programs are kept confidential.
