Entertaining Children

  Chapter 286 Because of boredom

"Are you kidding me?" Xiao Yao said with some doubts after he recovered. "Didn't the CCTV Spring Festival Gala program have been reviewed a month or two ago? It's only ten days before New Year's Eve. How could it be possible? It's not settled yet?"

"Preparation work and program selection really started very early, but it is also the most recent thing to determine." Xiao Siqi said, "mainly because of the previously scheduled programs, two programs were removed due to some unexpected reasons. Now, the director team of the Spring Festival Gala has to choose two more programs to make up. It happens that the director in chief has watched your show, so I want you to top the two programs that have been withdrawn. Of course, in terms of the process, you have to compare with other programs. Candidate programs are subject to a round of review and selection by the director team, but your program is the only program for which the director-general called for participation. The evaluation of you is also higher than other candidate programs, so as long as you perform normally, basically It’s your two shows that went on top."

"To be honest, I didn't expect such a good thing to fall on our heads. On the Spring Festival Gala, how many big coffees are squeezing their heads and wanting to get in, this time they came to us on their own initiative." Xiao Siqi sighed.

"It turned out to be a substitute." Xiao Yao asked curiously, "Why were those two programs removed? Didn't the programs have the first trial and the second trial? How could they be temporarily removed? What's the problem?"

"The show itself is definitely okay. The problem is with the people." Xiao Siqi said, "One show is because the core actors were hospitalized in an accident. You can't let people come to the stage with their arms hanging on crutches, right? The other is because of the starring actors. Recently, a relatively large negative news was exposed by the media. Because of image problems, his program was removed."

   "Oh, then they are really unlucky." Xiao Yao's final exam has ended, and occasionally he still reads the news online to know who the two stars Xiao Siqi said are. Just because the secrecy measures for the Spring Festival Gala are well done, most people don't even know that they were originally going to perform on the Spring Festival Gala.

   "Wait, we?" Xiao Yao noticed the words in Xiao Siqi's previous words, "Who else?"

   "In addition to you, there is also our "Women Band"." Xiao Siqi smiled.

   "What? "Women's Band" will also be on the Spring Festival Gala? How long have they appeared in the Xiangnan TV New Year's Eve Gala?" Xiao Yao was a little surprised.

Although the "Twelve Girls Band" of the previous life was also on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala in the year when the first public concert was held, the first concert was held in October. The Spring Festival that year was the second month of the Gregorian calendar. The fermentation time is a full four months, which is more than twice as long as the time from the New Year's Day to the Spring Festival of the "Women's Band" in this world. What's more, the band in the previous life was a concert, and the "Women's Band" of this world "Landang" just participated in a New Year's Eve party, so influential?

"Do you know how high the ratings of Shonan Satellite TV’s New Year’s Eve party this year are?" Xiao Siqi smiled, "And in the following three weeks, "Women's Band" has also won performance opportunities on many important occasions. Now the reputation is not low. Besides, the Spring Festival Gala is different from the New Year's Eve party on local channels. It does not depend on the fame of every program. It also has a certain zz factor. "Women's Band" is also how to say it. The folk orchestra is our Chinese traditional culture. This form of performing with modern bands is innovative enough and it is normal to be selected."

   "In fact, you are the same," Xiao Siqi continued, "Do you know what you want you to perform in the Spring Festival Gala?"

   ""The New Drunken Concubine", because of the Jingyun singing in it, and there are folk music in the soundtrack," Xiao Yao said immediately.

   "I understand very well in my heart." Xiao Siqi smiled and gave a thumbs up.

   "They won't want me to perform in half modern and half ancient costumes, right?" Xiao Yao frowned.

"That's not the case. The director team requires you to perform directly in the costume of Concubine Yang in Peking Opera. You also know that every spring evening is indispensable for opera programs. They want to use your show as an intermediate between popular songs and opera programs. It’s a transition." Xiao Siqi said.

"Damn, the look of Concubine Yang!" Xiao Yao was shocked. After digesting and thinking about it in his heart, he asked Xiao Siqi with some guilty conscience: "That...can I refuse? Will it be right?" What is the impact of Band" and the studio?"

  "Do you want to refuse?" When Xiao Yao said this, even Ye Jiaying, who had been silent next to him, was surprised and asked, "Why?"

"The first one is... the look of Concubine Yang? I'm not a Peking opera actor, okay." Xiao Yao said with a bitter face, "I have been studying with Teacher Mei Qingchang for a while, and the "Good Voice of China" will make a fool of it. Okay, I didn’t even wear half-dress at the New Year’s Eve party of Shonan Satellite TV, and I played this song as a pop song. The Spring Festival Gala put me together with Chinese opera programs and asked me to wear a costume. I saw half of the song as a Peking opera. I said, I’m not a Peking opera. In the eyes of the insiders in Liyuan, it’s a kid’s joke, at least that’s what Mr. Mei said. This is the Spring Festival Gala, how many people will stare at it. I’m planning to provoke me with the above program. Although I am not afraid of scolding on the Internet, I don’t want to take the initiative to get scolded."

  Ye Jiaying and Xiao Siqi were stunned when they heard the words. After being silent for a while, Ye Jiaying showed a playful smile on her face. She smiled and looked at Xiao Yao and said, "That’s it? Then we try to discuss the order of the show and the clothing requirements with the director team, so that you can wear modern clothes. Is there any other reason to sing a song as a pop song?"

   "Then this song has no characteristics..." Xiao Yao shook his head. Looking up at Ye Jiaying’s playful smile, Xiao Yao realized that Ye Jiaying seemed to see through her mind, so she scratched her head and said honestly, “Well, I think it’s a formal occasion like the Spring Festival Gala, it’s not fun at all, no. It suits me too well, I don't want to go."

"Damn!" Xiao Siqi couldn't help but burst out in surprise. "This is the Spring Festival Gala. How many people squeezed their heads for this opportunity. They can't even go if they want to. Now the opportunity is given to you. You don't want to go with?"

"Cut~ It sounds like you have never been to the Spring Festival Gala," Xiao Yao rolled his eyes. "You are both people who have been on the Spring Festival Gala. I ask you, how does it feel to be on the Spring Festival Gala? Is it special? Nervous, very cautious mentality?"

   "You big genius, little evildoer will be nervous too?" Xiao Siqi said funny.

   "I'm a human too, okay, people are always nervous." Xiao Yao smiled bitterly.

   "No, I mean, you are also afraid of nervousness?" Xiao Siqi changed his words, "Because it is the first time, because the occasion is important, I am afraid that I will give up because of nervousness? This is not your style."

   "It's not just because of nervousness, in fact, the main reason is because of boredom, I feel boring." Xiao Yao said.

   "You said the Spring Festival Gala is boring?" Xiao Siqi glared at Xiao Yao.

"Isn't it?" Xiao Yao asked back, "The Spring Festival Gala is indeed the most influential variety show in China. But because of this, it has more rules, restrictions, and restrictions. There are basically no and no performances. On-site performance, and the interaction with the audience is also restricted. Of course, the audience at the Spring Festival Gala must also pay attention to the image. Have you ever seen the audience in the studio at the Spring Festival Gala stand up? If you want to be hi, you can’t get up. Which actor who participated in the Spring Festival Gala Which one is not cautious and trembling from beginning to end, so that my heart is actually quite tired, so I don’t want to suffer this sin."

"But this is the Spring Festival Gala after all. It is an opportunity for people across the country. No, it is an opportunity to show up in front of Chinese people all over the world. It is not only a symbol of popularity, but also has an immeasurable effect on raising fame. This is why even those top famous celebrities are famous. They are also fighting for the reasons for wanting to go to the Spring Festival Gala." Xiao Siqi still couldn't help but said.

"Symbol of popularity? Promoting fame?" Xiao Yao smiled, "I think I am quite famous now. Besides, even if I want to improve my fame, I hope I earn it through my works, not I got it in exchange for a sense of presence in the spring and evening."

"I think he is lazy in Bayi." Ye Jiaying patted Xiao Siqi on the back of his hand and comforted, "Forget it, don't go if you don't want to go, anyway, our studio has two groups of artists, and the director team Let’s discuss it over there, and it’s no big deal to leave the opportunity to others."

   "Two groups? Who else?" Xiao Yao asked curiously.

  "Aren't you not interested in the Spring Festival Gala?" Xiao Siqi gave Xiao Yao a blank look.

   "I'm not interested in going there, but I haven't denied the status and role of the Spring Festival Gala. I am also a member of the studio, so care about it." Xiao Yao said with a smile on his face.

"It's Fan Linxuan." Ye Jiaying said to Xiao Yao. "She is also the first artist in our studio to participate in the Spring Festival Gala. However, her weight in the program is not as high as yours. She is with the other three singers. The champions of the talent show sang a song together. In the past two years, the talent show has been very popular, and the popularity is also very high. The champions of several relatively high-rated programs have also had the opportunity to appear on the Spring Festival Gala in the past two years."

   "There is also the "Girls Band" that I mentioned to you just now. Those girls are not like you, the young master, who have personalities. They are so desperate for this opportunity. They are sure to participate in the Spring Festival Gala." Xiao Siqi also continued.

"That's right," Xiao Yao said suddenly, "Why are there media reports that I built this orchestra? I just casually mentioned an idea and wrote a few songs. Choosing people, training, and practicing , I didn’t do anything during the rehearsal. Grandpa Shen was in charge of it. How did I create it in the media reports? What makes Grandpa Shen think that he paid the most for the orchestra. Why don’t you clarify? a bit?"

"That's what Mr. Shen said to the media." Xiao Siqi said, "How can I clarify? His old man is old and he doesn't care about fame and fortune anymore. Thinking about your young, the road ahead is still long. Just put the halo on you. Besides, what he said is right. You put forward the idea, you also wrote the tune, and you also took care of the costumes and styling for the New Year's Eve party."

   "Well, since Grandpa Shen said it, then I don't care." Xiao Yao waved his hand.

"Of course it doesn't matter what you are," Xiao Siqi said irritably. "It was so difficult to have three groups of artists attending the Spring Festival Gala. This is a great benefit to our studio's reputation and staff morale. But now we have to give a chance. Going out, I really feel upset the more I think about it."

"Well, don't put too much pressure on Bayi. After all, he is our son, not an ordinary artist in the studio. You also know his temperament. You can't force it to come in this kind of thing. Let's talk about him. I have already done a lot for the studio. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't sign Fan Linxuan, and there would be no "girls' band", neither of these two Spring Festival Gala shows." Ye Jiaying comforted Xiao Siqi.

   "Why let it out? I really don't want to go, but there is still Chen Chen in our studio? You recommend Chen Chen to go." Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying and said.

   "Chen Chen?" Xiao Siqi was amused by Xiao Yao, "Do you think anyone can go to the Spring Festival Gala? Given his current situation, where would the director team of the Spring Festival Gala be of interest?"

"It's not all about fame, right? As long as the work has characteristics, it should be able to make up for some of the lack of fame." Xiao Yao said, "Like me, if it weren't for the song "The New Drunken Concubine", I have a chance. Did the directors see me? If I just look at my fame, I was more popular two years ago than I am now. "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" is also a suitable song for the Spring Festival Gala. Why didn't I see the directors of the Spring Festival Gala and said they wanted me to go? There is a "girl band". If they are not a folk band, there will be no chance this year, right?"

"That's correct, but does Chen Chen have any unique works?" Xiao Siqi said, "The "Yenjing Natives" you wrote to Chen Chen is quite distinctive, but the song is too regional. However, the Spring Festival Gala needs to cater to the audience from all over the country, and it is not an evening party for the local station in Yanjing."

"Then what if I write him another song that is suitable for spring evening performances and is also very characteristic?" Xiao Yao said, "Anyway, you said that the program between me and "Women's Band" will be compared with other candidate programs. I accepted the review of the program team together, and let Chen Chen try instead for me. It was a surprise to be selected, and there was no loss if I did not. Even if I apologize for my wayward rejection of the Spring Festival Gala."

   "Do you also know that you are headstrong?" Xiao Siqi glanced at Xiao Yao.

   "Of course I know, but I can't change it for the time being, and I don't want to change it yet." Xiao Yao nodded with a smile.

   "You..." Xiao Siqi pointed to Xiao Yao, not knowing what to say.

"Don't get angry, I'll write a song now." Xiao Yao stood up quickly from the sofa, waved his hand and walked to his piano room upstairs, at the same time not forgetting to turn around and ask the last sentence, "You and Chen Chen Let him go to the studio's recording room in the afternoon to audition, and let you hear the effect first."

   "You write songs like playing? You are only starting to write now, and people will go to audition in the afternoon?" Xiao Siqi shouted angrily.

   "Yes, I write songs like playing." Xiao Yao turned around and smiled, "Don't tell me, the song I wrote for him is called "Play"!"

  "..."

  It’s the last day of this year, I wish you all a Happy New Year in advance!

  A guest came at home today, and there will be no more chapter in the evening, so I’m sorry.

  Ps, four thousand words in this chapter, apologize.
