January 25th.

That morning, the CCTV building was very lively. The studio was full of red lanterns, ribbons, etc., and everyone's faces were filled with festive smiles. After all, it's "New Year's Day" today, who dares to be unhappy?

Well, in fact, this year's New Year's Eve is February 5th, which is the 29th day of the lunar calendar.

So strictly speaking, there are still eleven days left for the New Year.

Today, the lighting and decoration in the CCTV building were very lively, mainly because the Spring Festival Gala will be officially recorded this afternoon. Since the morning, big names have come one after another. Accompanied by leaders from various departments, they began to inspect the entire building.

Li Yange also came to the backstage of the studio early, with Senior Brother Wu Man and band members early, and began to make final preparations for the official performance in the afternoon.

"Yan Ge, guess I saw it! Ni Ping!"

Li Yange was still watching everyone put on makeup here. Suddenly he heard the voice behind him, and turned around and smiled: "She is the host of CCTV. Isn't it normal to see it?"

Today is the day to record the Spring Festival Gala. Seeing that Cheng Shaojun was very curious, Li Yange brought her over, which was just enough to increase the number of audiences on site.

"No, I just didn't expect that I could see her in real life. You know that I like to watch the TV series "Snow City" she filmed the most." Cheng Shaojun was obviously a little excited and was a little stuttering in his speech, but this did not affect her expression of her love for Ni Ping at all.

"Then have you asked her to sign?" Li Yange remembered that after the TV series "Snow City" was broadcast last year, Cheng Shaojun chased after almost a single episode. It was normal to be excited to see Ni Ping, who played the heroine Yao Yuhui.

Cheng Shaojun shook his head: "No, I just saw her talking to someone from afar, and then ran over to tell you. That, Yan Ge, can you ask for an autograph for me?"

"You, okay, I will meet Teacher Ni later and ask her for an autograph." Li Yange was so amused that she was amused and crying. When she saw the other party, she ran to herself excitedly and said to herself, not knowing whether it should be happy or unhappy.

"Teacher Li, Teacher Li..."

Suddenly, a staff member of the program team ran over and found Li Yange with sweat on his face. He panted and said, "Teacher Li, Director Zhao asked me to tell you that you will prepare and the recording will officially start in twenty minutes. You are the opening performance, and it will be your turn when the Spring Festival overture is finished."

Hearing this, Li Yange looked down at his wristwatch. It was already 100 now. After 20, it was 1000. He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Tell Director Zhao, I'm all ready."

"Okay, then Teacher Li, you are busy."

As he said that, when the staff was about to turn around and leave the dressing room, Li Yange suddenly remembered Cheng Shaojun and also said, "Wait."

"What's wrong with Teacher Li?"

"Can you please take my girlfriend to the front and find a seat?"

The staff looked at Cheng Shaojun and smiled and said, "Okay, there are still several empty seats. Director Zhao originally wanted us to take the lead."

"Then I'll trouble you."

"You are kind to me, Teacher Li."

After making some politeness, Li Yange asked Cheng Shaojun to follow the man and go to the studio in front to find a seat in the audience.

"What's wrong?" Senior Brother Wu Man ran over with makeup at this time.

"Director Zhao notified us to be on stage in twenty minutes. Senior brother, let me tell you, and you will sort out your image. The next thing is not to be a performance in front of the leader. It will be broadcast on TV in the future and can be seen by audiences across the country. If this is not a good image, it will be embarrassing to the whole country."

Li Yange said jokingly.

Li Yange is not worried about the performance. After so long, everyone has practiced this song well. Now they are afraid that some people will be stage frightened, but it is unlikely that the members of the orchestra are all from the Central National Orchestra, all of which have been on the big stage, and the scene is only recorded and broadcast. They should be kept in mind and not be too nervous.

Wu Man laughed loudly and turned to inform the rest of the band: "Haha, I said that, I have to look in the mirror, so don't be embarrassed and thrown into the people of the whole country."

...

...

Twenty minutes later.

The studio was already full of audiences, including men, women, old and young, soldiers, police, and nurses. Everyone was wearing formal clothes and communicating happily.

However, as Director Zhao was about to turn on the camera, the venue immediately reminded everyone to calm down first, and the audience members who came on the scene cooperated and shut up and calmed down.

Director Zhao saw it almost right, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Each department is ready to take place, lighting, photography, music, and venues are all cheering me up!"

"The first group of opening guests are ready."

“3,2,1, power on!”

As soon as the words were finished, several cameras in the studio began to shoot. At the same time, the classic "Spring Festival Overture" resounded happily throughout the studio at this moment.

When the audience heard the familiar music, although they knew that today was not the New Year, they still subconsciously felt the joyful atmosphere of the Spring Festival. Men, women, young and old all watched the various performances on the stage happily.

I saw a group of floats walking by the first row, and then the two-man team wearing big-headed dolls on their heads, stilts on their feet, and rotating handkerchiefs on their hands. There were also Peking Opera actors dancing swords and guns. There were also Sichuan Opera performers who were doing tricks there, and there were also acrobatics of kicking gongs and drums with their legs...

Many performances were one after another, and the audience was overwhelmed with great enthusiasm and applause. For a moment, the studio was very lively.

After the two-three-minute performance, hosts, Mr. Li Moran and Mr. Zhao Zhongyang, took the stage. The two of them held the microphone in their hands and smiled with a smile on their faces: "Friends, comrades, the 1989 Spring Festival Gala has begun! We are here to represent the CCTV representative column group and all the actors... to greet hundreds of millions of viewers across the country, and wish you a happy holiday!"

As soon as the words were finished, everyone who was performing before came to the two of them. Those who had something in their hands held things, while those who had nothing were waving there, shouting together: "Happy New Year!"

The audience even greeted the warmest applause to welcome the arrival of the "Spring Festival".

With the cheers rising, Director Zhao picked up the intercom and said, "The second group is ready! It's your turn soon!"

With the time point, when the time point reached 36 minutes, Director Zhao gave the order and pointed the camera at the audience, photographing the festive smiles on their faces. The orchestra who were ready in the backstage picked up their instruments and walked onto the stage after hearing the scene.

The other staff took advantage of this time and quickly rushed to the stage and started placing props.

The entire speed took less than fifteen seconds.

Seeing that the arrangement was almost done, all the members of the band were in place, and hurriedly said, "The camera is ready! Pull it back for me!"

After a while, the camera turned and saw an orchestra on the stage smiling. Li Yange, who was standing in the audience, also waved his hand.

In an instant, accompanied by a horn of "Woooooo...", a rapid drum sound was ringing, and multiple instruments such as pipa, bamboo flute, and erhu began to play...
