China Entertainment 2000

"They are looking for me, why are you following me?"

CCTV Building, outside Studio 1.

Zhou Yi in the aisle squinted at Stefanie Sun who kept rubbing her hands to breathe: "It's a cold day, don't you mind being cold?"

"Of course it's a rehearsal. Didn't Qian Jiang tell you? I'm going to attend the Spring Festival Gala this year too."

Stefanie Sun said with a matter-of-fact expression: "I think I'm not at the point where I'll go straight to the Spring Festival Gala without rehearsing and submitting it for review."

"Aren't you at the branch meeting?"

Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Qian Jiang really didn't tell him the details of Stefanie Sun's Spring Festival Gala. He only said that she had also received an invitation.

In his impression, Stefanie Sun's appearance on the Spring Festival Gala should be at the branch venue in Shenzhen.

"No, why do you think so? Where did you hear the unreliable gossip?" Stefanie Sun bared her teeth and laughed: "Or are you saying that Chen Zeshan has done a good job in keeping secrets?"

"Maybe."

Zhou Yi, who didn't take it seriously, shrugged nonchalantly and took the lead in pushing open the door of Studio No. 1.

"Your reaction is so bland. Shouldn't you continue to be curious about what my Spring Festival Gala rehearsal repertoire is?"

"There's nothing to guess. If you don't go out of tune, you win."

"..."

Stefanie Sun, who was hit in a sore spot, suddenly became angry and started to pull at Zhou Yi to vent her hatred: "The same goes for you. Don't forget that I am still your teacher."

Wasn't it because she was too busy during the promotion meeting and was not in a good state that the pitch of the song was a little off? She adjusted it back later, okay?

The only thing to blame is that "Remember" written by a fellow Singaporean named JJ Lin was not so singable.

"It doesn't matter if you are a teacher. Don't forget that there is a saying that the waves behind you in the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. A young man is better than a young man." Zhou Yi turned his head, chuckled and looked her up and down, and then gave her a joking look: "Please Pay attention to the occasion and your manners, Teacher Sun."

"..."

After he reminded her like this, she finally remembered that the people here were from the top ranks of the Chinese entertainment industry. Stefanie Sun immediately shrank her head in anger and switched back to good girl mode in a second.

"Where is Chen Zeshan? Why didn't I come with you?"

"He came to CCTV one step ahead of me. He must have gone to understand the relevant situation." Stefanie Sun, who finally remembered her agent, turned her head left and right, but did not see Chen Zeshan, but saw someone walking towards Zhou Yi. The stranger figure came——

He is thin and has a long face, and he looks a bit older.

"Hello Zhou Yi, it's our first time meeting you. This must be Ms. Stefanie Sun."

Feng Gong took the lead in reaching out and saying hello to the two of them.

As an old artist who has never missed the Spring Festival Gala stage since his debut in 1986 until this year, the phrase "Dear audience friends, I miss you so much" has directly become a fixed label on him.

If we want to select the top ten artists on the Spring Festival Gala stage, Feng Gong is a true god-level existence who can squeeze into the top five in terms of career length and career height.

As a Singaporean, Stefanie Sun didn't know this man very well, but seeing that she wanted to talk about something, she made an excuse to go to Chen Zeshan to prepare for the rehearsal after saying hello and chose to leave.

Seeing this, Feng Gong suddenly had a smile on his face: "It seems that I came at the wrong time, Zhou Yi."

"No, no, no, Uncle Feng, you came at the right time."

Zhou Yi, who borrowed some lines, smiled and said: "For such a small matter as authorization, you can actually contact Warner directly."

Feng Gong's purpose in finding Zhou Yi is actually very simple: he wants song authorization and adaptation rights.

The Spring Festival Gala program prepared by Feng Gong, Guo Donglin and Lu Ming this year is very similar in format to the cross talk "Old Songs, New Songs" performed by Feng Gong and Guo Donglin in the 2000 Spring Festival Gala. The program is currently tentatively named "Trio".

As the name suggests, the key element that holds this show together from beginning to end is the songs. The performance and rhythm of the three performers determine whether the program can proceed smoothly.

Lu Ming plays accordion, Guo Donglin plays Tianjin Allegro, and Feng Gong plays guitar.

Now that the three songs with the main theme have been decided, Feng Gong, who plays the guitar, needs to play and sing a song by himself in the plot, and rewrite the lyrics.

Originally, Feng Gong planned to use the old song "A Letter from Home" to change the lyrics and sing it, but the song "Jiangnan" was so popular that even if he went out every day, he would be forced to accept the song "Jiangnan" "Jiangnan" was bombarded, and my family sang it every day.

Although there was already an adaptation of "A Letter from Home" as insurance, Feng Gong still wanted to come to Zhou Yi to try and get authorization for the sake of the final effect of the program.

"This is no small matter. The words I sang then can be said to have nothing to do with your "Jiangnan" except for the same tune.

"As the author, I think I still need to report this to you properly."

Feng Gong was obviously in a good mood after receiving Zhou Yi's consent, and even extended an invitation to him: "Xiao Yi, if you are interested, you can come and watch our rehearsal.

"You are also a creator. If we make any mistakes in the lyrics, you might be able to help us check and fill in the gaps."

"Uncle Feng, don't tell me, I'm really interested."

Zhou Yi is really interested in this "Trio". He can confirm that the program Feng Gong performed in the 2002 Spring Festival Gala was called "On Stage and Off Stage", not this ghost name.

The laughs are average, and the overall quality is still far behind the "Old Songs, New Songs" with the same format that he performed at the 2000 Spring Festival Gala.

In fact, when Zhou Yi, who had sneaked into the rehearsal area of ​​the language program, received the first version of the script handed to him by Feng Gong, Zhou Yi almost immediately confirmed the program, which was called "Trio" during the rehearsal, and submitted it for review at the end. The finished product that comes out at the end is called "On Stage and Off Stage."

He was familiar with some of the lines here and had seen them before.

Of course, here he also saw Guo Donglin, who still had hair on his forehead.

He was reciting his lines when he saw Zhou Yi coming and immediately stood up from his chair and greeted him politely.

Zhou Yi, who was familiar with it, soon started calling Brother Guo one after another.

There was nothing I could do about it. The Spring Festival Gala these days was full of big and small kings, and all of them were more than one year older than him... The reason why he wasn't called Brother Feng Gong was simply because he was almost as old as his father.

After meeting Lu Ming, another performing member, Zhou Yi looked at the adapted lyrics in his hand with great interest——

The tune of "Jiangnan" is indeed Feng Gong's teasing about the Spring Festival Gala and Guo Donglin, and the lyrics are a big change.

"How about it, Xiao Yi, did I change it?"

Feng Gong, who was even good at playing guitar, smiled and asked, "See if there is anything that needs to be modified."

"Uncle Feng, your adaptation is great. It pokes fun at both the Spring Festival Gala and Brother Guo. It's perfect. However...my suggestion is that Brother Guo can polish up his lines a little bit after you finish singing."

An idea suddenly came to Zhou Yi's mind and he raised the notebook in his hand.

In the script, after Feng Gong finished singing the limited version of the Spring Festival Gala of "Jiangnan", Guo Donglin directly said: Friends, I just made everyone listen to a noise that made your ears suffer! I will sing my true feelings for you below...

In fact, there are not many laughs in this section. It relies solely on the performances of Feng Gong and Guo Donglin, and the lines are not smoothly connected.

"I think you can add one more sentence before Brother Guo says this line. For example, Uncle Feng, you just finished performing the adapted version of "Jiangnan", and then Brother Guo didn't bother to say it first: If you tamper with the lyrics of "Jiangnan" at will, it's superfluous. !

"Then connect the original lines."

Glancing at Guo Donglin's face, which was quite similar to Lin JJ's, Zhou Yi rolled his eyes and suggested.

This can be regarded as creating a laugh point, after all, there is actually no laugh point in the line design of this performance.

As soon as these words came out, Feng Gong and others looked at each other, and subconsciously began to think about the possibilities and interestingness——

ten minutes later:

When Feng and Gong decided to give it a try, they started rehearsing. As an audience member, Zhou Yi was sitting in the audience, watching Guo Donglin, who looked like JJ Lin, standing on the stage and angrily scolding Feng Gong after playing "Jiangnan" - "You tampered with "Jiangnan" at will. The lyrics are just superfluous!

"Ren Zhou Yi Ge is so popular, you ruined it!

"Friends, I'm really sorry that I made everyone listen to some noise just now..."

After Guo Donglin said the word "noise", it coincided with the sentence he used to angrily criticize Feng Gong. It also perfectly connected the previous and the following, adding some baggage to this paragraph that can make people smile.

Unexpectedly, the effect was so good, even Zhou Yi, the initiator, was surprised.

With all conscience, he originally just wanted to see if it would be fun for Guo Donglin to say this.

"Okay! The change is beautiful!"

Suddenly, a voice full of the smell of Northeastern dirt came from behind Zhou Yi.

ps: After three days of cultivation, I feel that I have almost cultivated myself, and now my spirit is no longer sluggish.

Will resume two updates tomorrow~
