Chapter 298 Refuse to lip-synch
CCTV Building.
A busy scene.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and Liao Yuqing, as the director, is even more worried and has endless work to do.
Liao Yuqing is very famous in the circle and is an excellent stage director. She is very good at participating in such large-scale evening parties. She has been working for more than ten years.
However, this is the first time he personally directed a large-scale stage program like CCTV Spring Festival Gala that is broadcast live nationwide.
However, he participated in the Lantern Festival Gala last year, and he was familiar with such major festivals and had rich experience.
However, even though you have rich experience, when you encounter an emergency of force majeure, you can only jump quickly.
Zou Heguang's participation in this Spring Festival Gala was decided long ago, and the rehearsals have been rehearsed more than dozens of times. Everything was fine, but he didn't expect that his bad deeds were exposed by netizens after the end of the year, causing an uproar and the program was forced to be cut.
As we all know, the Spring Festival Gala is extremely rigorous. It must be held at 12 o'clock to end the national report and congratulate the arrival of the New Year, so it cannot be a minute or a second.
When Zou Heguang was removed, the entire program was blank for seven or eight minutes at once, causing the rhythm of the entire Spring Festival Gala to collapse. It was impossible for these seven or eight minutes to be squeezed out from other programs, so they could only find a new program of the same duration to replace it.
This is a hot potato. Fortunately, the two of them did not refuse, but took it.
Liao Yuqing couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He Xiao was more courageous than he had imagined.
He had heard of He Xiao's name a long time ago, but he didn't take it seriously, because Liao Yuqing is an extremely old-fashioned person and values qualifications very much. Even his friends in the circle are Chinese artists.
Therefore, he did not pay special attention to He Xiao, who had only been in the industry for two years. He just regarded it as a traffic star like other young actors. After the show was vacant, someone under his command suggested that he learned about He Xiao's deeds and knew that this was also a "little artist" who had won glory for the country and then he felt that such a young talent was very fond of his own taste.
At this time, the young talent had arrived and walked towards this side slowly, without any panic.
This made Liao Yuqing nod his head secretly. He is indeed a person who has seen the world and has a certain temperament.
"Xiao Zhang, please ask Master Liu to debug the lighting color scheme. When Teacher Sun rehearses the sketch, you need to use the lighting on the side of the stage to set off the atmosphere. You can do this quickly."
After hurriedly giving instructions to an assistant at hand, Liao Yuqing took the initiative to welcome him and extended his hand to say hello.
"Hello, He Xiao."
"Hello, Director Liao."
He Xiao didn't dare to be arrogant, so as not to give people an arrogant image. He immediately smiled and shook hands with Liao Yuqing.
Zhang Ya and Liao Yuqing have already met each other. The two sides collaborated once on a CCTV evening show a few years ago.
So this time it was a reunion of old friends, which is no stranger.
Liao Yuqing said: "Although I have already told your agent about the situation, the incident happened urgently, and some places may not be fully understood. I will add it."
"I believe everyone knows that what happened to Teacher Zou is that we invited two of you to this Spring Festival Gala this time to cover this hole. Teacher Zou's program lasts about seven minutes, so I guess there is not enough time for a song, so I have to add some more programs, so I will arrange them by myself."
"But there is one thing that must be zero mistakes! The Spring Festival Gala cannot be careless. Ms. Zhang Ya has participated in it several times before and should have experience, but Xiao He, you are a little bit unacceptable, so I personally think that this lip-syncing is more stable."
Lipstick singing on the Spring Festival Gala is not a strange thing. It can even be said that most Spring Festival Gala directors do not allow guests to sing really. They are not afraid of ten thousand, but they are afraid that if they cannot bear the responsibility.
So it is very likely that people don’t know that since many years ago, all singing programs in the Spring Festival Gala were lip-synced.
Last year, some TV program experts made suggestions to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala group, demanding the abolition of the Spring Festival Gala lip sing system and also made it on the news. It was this incident that made many netizens realize that they had lip sing before.
Of course, some people are unwilling to believe it. After all, there have been many powerful singers on the Spring Festival Gala. At their level, they don’t need to lip-sync at all, so there are many different opinions.
On the way this time, He Xiao also raised questions. Zhang Ya, a familiar Spring Festival Gala guest, gave him the answer. In order to maintain zero mistakes, there is indeed a phenomenon of lip-syncing.
However, in recent years, because many TV experts have responded to CCTV and expressed their protests, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala has begun to appropriately reduce the phenomenon of lip-syncing.
For some young singers, they still mainly lip-sync, while those with powerful singers who are stable in typhoons are replaced by real singers.
Zhang Ya has been on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala three times before, and the first two times were lip-synced, and she only sang it in real life for the third time.
This time, Liao Yuqing saw that He Xiao was not old and although he had a good aura, the rehearsal time was very short. He was afraid that he would make mistakes until the live broadcast, so he did not dare to let him sing and take risks.
He Xiao couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable when he heard these words.
He has never done this before.
Whether it was in the Spring Festival Gala in Yanjing or at the Isabella Cup, he had never cheated.
Although I knew that Liao Yuqing's request was for the sake of the performance of the program, I still resisted it in my heart.
"Do you have anything to say?" Liao Yuqing asked when he frowned.
He Xiao pondered for a moment, but still spoke decisively: "Director Liao, I can't agree to lip-syncing this."
"It's not embarrassing to lip-sing on the Spring Festival Gala. This is a rule. Many celebrities have lip-singed." Liao Yuqing thought why she laughed because she was afraid that lip-singing would affect her future after being exposed, so she immediately persuaded her with great thoughts. "As long as you serve more snacks during rehearsals and keep up with the rhythm, no one can tell that you lip-singed."
He Xiao stopped talking, but he didn't agree, obviously he was unwilling to do so.
He couldn't figure out why everyone performed on the stage, why did singers lip-sync, sketches, and acrobats really act? The mistakes were not divided into the program. I still hope that the director team could be more realistic and truly bring a complete party to the audience.
"Director Liao, He Xiao has the ability to sing. If you let a powerful singer sing a fake, no one will feel comfortable if you feel." Zhang Ya glanced at He Xiao who was unwilling to do so, and couldn't help but speak lightly.
Hearing Zhang Ya's remarks like this, Liao Yuqing couldn't say anything. He did know that He Xiao is a very powerful singer. After thinking about it, nodded: "Okay, but we agreed in advance. After you rehearse the finished product, I have to read it a few times before you can agree to it. If the on-site effect is not good, you have to follow my arrangements."
"Okay, you can check at any time." Seeing that Liao Yuqing finally let go, He Xiao's awkward heart was relieved.
Lipstick is impossible. Singer is his profession. If a singer doesn’t even dare to sing, then who is still a singer?
