Huayu is free to do as you like

In the early morning, the warm sunshine shines in through the window.

On the somewhat messy bed, Zeng Li was lying on his side, with his arms stretched forward, and a long, straight, white leg riding on the quilt, as if he was holding something in his arms. This sleeping posture was completely gone. The dignified temperament of beauty.

First the eyelashes move slightly, then the eyes slowly open.

The high-intensity exercise last night was a little overwhelming for her, but after a full night's sleep, her whole body felt particularly relaxed and her condition was better than before.

After waking up, I got out of bed, took out a new set of home clothes from the closet, put them on, opened the door and walked out of the bedroom.

No surprise, Gu Wei was busy preparing breakfast for her.

Zeng Li yawned and sat down.

In front of him were slices of bread and fried eggs, as well as a small bowl of lettuce salad.

He reached out and took the cup of hot milk from Gu Wei and took a sip first.

"Sister Li, you look much better this morning~"

Gu Wei also sat down, looked at Zeng Li with a smile and said.

"Is it?"

Zeng Li was a little surprised. She did feel a little lighter, thinking that maybe she slept better yesterday.

"Of course, it's all my fault!"

Gu Wei said with a wicked smile.

"Smelly boy~"

Only then did Zeng Li know what he meant, and he smiled and reached out to pat him.

The two of them laughed and joked. After finishing breakfast and cleaning themselves up, they went downstairs and got into Gu Wei's nanny car.

The rehearsal of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala is usually called the rehearsal.

The reason is that the CCTV Spring Festival Gala uses an extremely large cast and it is impossible to ensure that all programs can be rehearsed at the same time. Therefore, separate rehearsals are required.

When the time is right, various departments and programs will jointly rehearse according to the order of broadcast. This is the legendary rehearsal.

The chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala is CCTV's old lady Ha Wen. She was the director of the Spring Festival Gala in 2012 and 2013. She has rich experience and profound directing skills.

However, in 2014, CCTV invited Feng Xiaogang to direct in order to pursue innovation and breakthrough, but the audience was still dissatisfied.

This year, without an external director, Ha Wen was naturally asked to direct again.

Of course, in addition to being a famous director of CCTV, Director Ha also has a more famous identity, that is, the wife of host Li Yong.

Gu Wei was asked by the director to attend the Spring Festival Gala this year.

The Spring Festival Gala gives people a high-end feeling. It is a big stage for the national audience, and countless small artists are eager to be on it.

Later, there was a special variety show called "I Want to Go to the Spring Festival Gala".

The Spring Festival Gala is indeed the most watched gala in China. On New Year’s Eve, almost everyone across the country will watch it.

Many unknown artists became famous on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and became well-known to people across the country.

The most typical example is Xiao Shenyang. After attending the Spring Festival Gala, he transformed from an ordinary duo actor into a very popular A-list star overnight.

But the Spring Festival Gala is actually very realistic. Like all ordinary variety shows on TV stations, it has always been concerned about its reputation and ratings.

Therefore, every year, some of the most popular stars of the year are invited to use their fame to attract some young viewers.

The most typical example is that in 2013, when the Korean Wave was surging and the long-legged Oppa Lee Min Ho became popular in Asia, the Spring Festival Gala actively contacted him and invited him to come and perform a show.

Before that, Han Geng was one of the first generation top performers. He returned from Super Junior in South Korea and had countless fans at that time. He was invited to the stage at the Spring Festival Gala without hesitation.

This year is no exception. As the most popular star in the entertainment industry in 2014, Gu Wei received an invitation from the director team as early as the preparation stage of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

The director team hoped that he could sing his most popular song "The Lonely Warrior" on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, but Gu Wei thought about it and rejected the proposal.

After all, this is my first time attending the Spring Festival Gala. Although "Lonely Warrior" is good, it is a song that Gu Wei released in 2013 and has nothing new.

So he specially came up with a new song for this year's Spring Festival Gala. The director team listened and were very satisfied with the song Gu Wei came up with, so his program was decided.

After Gu Wei and his party arrived at CCTV, naturally a staff member came to receive him and led them to the dressing room inside.

This is the first rehearsal since all the Spring Festival Gala programs have been confirmed. All the actors who have their own programs in the Spring Festival Gala have arrived at CCTV, and the backstage is crowded with actors, singers, dancers, etc.

Although Gu Wei was already very low-key when he entered the backstage of the studio, he still attracted some people's attention.

"Hey, Xiaowei, do you think that is Gu Wei?"

A little girl wearing a black formal dress sat on a step in the hall and asked her companion wearing the same dress next to her.

"Where is it? Let me see!"

Another little girl was very surprised when she heard what her companion said.

"Over there, we're walking in~"

Looking in the direction of my companion's finger, I saw a man and a woman surrounded by several people. The man in front was wearing brown casual clothes and a pair of sunglasses. He had a slender figure. The woman behind looked slightly older. One point, with long wavy hair and a dignified temperament.

"Wow, it's really Gu Wei!"

Even though she was wearing sunglasses, the girl could still recognize at a glance that the boy with outstanding temperament and good looks walking in front was her idol-Gu Wei.

"Jingjing, should we go over and ask him for an autograph?"

The girl named Xiaowei hugged her companion's arm and shook it.

"It's a little bit uncomfortable here~"

Jingjing was also a little moved, but this was the backstage of CCTV after all, and they were not here to chase stars, but actors who came to participate in the Spring Festival Gala.

They are members of the choir of Communication University of China and students of China Communication University.

This year's Spring Festival Gala has a song program "Give Me My Heart to You", which is sung by singers Mo Warren and Lu Wei. Their choir, as one of the performers, will sing in conjunction with the two singers.

The chat between the two attracted the attention of others, and the students all noticed Gu Wei's arrival. Everyone started talking and turned their attention to the direction in which Gu Wei was walking.

Gu Wei's reputation is particularly famous among these college students. More than half of the female students in the chorus are his fans. Although the boys are not many star-chasers, they have all watched Gu Wei's dramas either actively or passively.

In addition to them, some other young dancers resting in the hall also discovered Gu Wei's arrival.

They are the largest group of performers in the Spring Festival Gala, and they are also the group with relatively the lowest status.

Many singers need them to accompany them when singing, but they often don’t receive much attention as backgrounds.

They were putting on makeup and resting in some places in the hall and corridors when they suddenly noticed Gu Wei and his group coming in.

Everyone was talking and looking over. Most of these people were young people, and many of them were fans of Gu Wei.

Fortunately, everyone still remembered that they were backstage at CCTV, and they were actors who came to rehearse the Spring Festival Gala. Some girls were very excited to see Gu Wei in person, but no one came over and just looked at him from a distance.

"Gu Wei~"

Someone in the crowd couldn't hold it back and shouted loudly.

Then several more distinctly female voices shouted his name.

As Gu Wei walked forward, he heard the shouting, took off his sunglasses, smiled and waved in the direction of the sound.

"Wow! Jingjing, he waved to me, and Gu Wei smiled at me. He was so handsome and gentle."

One of the two little girls who first spotted Gu Wei coming in said excitedly.

"Stop being silly. Those who are yelling in the background will definitely be disciplined by the team leader when they come over soon."

Jingjing unceremoniously told the consequences of Xiaowei's shout just now.

"Well~ I really couldn't hold it back. I tried my best to control myself by not rushing over to ask for an autograph."

After walking a few steps, Gu Wei and the others followed the staff to a dressing room.

"You are so popular now that you have fans even backstage at CCTV.

I just heard that the people calling your name were all young girls~"

After entering the room and sitting down, Zeng Li said to Gu Wei with a smile.

"Maybe there happen to be two people who like me more. I didn't expect to meet fans here."

Gu Wei said a little embarrassed.

They simply asked the staff to put on some makeup, and the two of them waited backstage for their turn to sing on stage.

On the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, singing programs are relatively the most relaxed.

Except for some truly powerful singers or singers from the national team, others have hired some popular stars to sing, mainly to attract the audience to watch. The audience doesn't care much about how good these stars sing. .

What the Spring Festival Gala really values ​​​​is language programs, cross talk, sketches and the like. These are the real essence of the party, and they are also the parts that audiences care about most every year.

Of course, for these language programs, the Spring Festival Gala director team is also very strict in reviewing them. There are many works signed up every year, but only a few can finally make it to the Spring Festival Gala stage.

After waiting for a while, a staff member came over and informed me that they needed to wait, and it would be their turn for the show soon.

As soon as he arrived backstage, Gu Wei saw Shen Teng and Mary coming off the stage after the performance.

"Teacher Shen Teng!"

Gu Wei stretched out his hand and said hello.

Shen Teng, who had just come off the stage, heard someone calling him. He turned around and saw a tall, slender, handsome, and extraordinary young man calling him not far backstage.

Although they had never met before, Shen Teng recognized Gu Wei at the first sight.

It can only be said that Gu Wei is so popular this year. Even if a middle-aged sketch actor like Shen Teng doesn't watch idol dramas at all, he will inevitably learn about it from colleagues, online news and other sources. Find out who Gu Wei is.

He walked over in two or three steps, sighing in his heart:

‘As expected of a well-known handsome guy in the entertainment industry, he is almost as handsome as me! ’

"Hello, Teacher Gu Wei, are you calling me?"

"Hello, Teacher Shen Teng, I'm sorry for taking the liberty of calling you.

My parents particularly like your sketches. I have watched your works with them in the Spring Festival Gala of the past two years.

We happen to be meeting today, so I couldn't help but say hello and get to know you. "

Gu Wei said politely with a smile on his face, and stretched out his hand to shake Shen Teng.

Shen Teng was also very happy when he heard Gu Wei's praise.

"Uncle and auntie are really discerning. Teacher Gu Wei is so good. It seems that he has inherited the excellent genes from your parents."

"If you have time, can you give me two signed photos and take them back when I get home? Let them know that I also met Mr. Shen Teng at the Spring Festival Gala.

I think they will be very happy. "

"That's no problem. Teacher Gu, please open your mouth. You can get as many signed photos as you want."

Although he didn't know why Gu Wei, a popular star, was so polite to him when they first met, but since he showed his kindness, Shen Teng would naturally take it well.

The two chatted for a few more words, and the backstage staff reminded Gu Wei that he was about to go on stage. Shen Teng then left and said that he would go to Gu Wei's dressing room to give him a signed photo soon.

At this time, although the movie "Charlotte" that made Shen Teng popular has not yet been released, Shen Teng is not an unknown person.

Since his first appearance on the Spring Festival Gala in 2012, where he played "Hao Jian" in the sketch "Today's Happiness", he has left a deep impression on people across the country.

After that, he appeared on the Spring Festival Gala for three consecutive years, bringing unforgettable hilarious sketches to the audience every year.

In this era when Zhao Benshan has withdrawn from the Spring Festival Gala, the appearance of Shen Teng seems to have taken over the banner of Zhao Benshan's sketch king and has become a target for the audience to look forward to the Spring Festival Gala again.

It is a coincidence that Zhao Benshan last participated in the Spring Festival Gala in 2011, and Shen Teng made his first appearance on the Spring Festival Gala stage in 2012.

The two people, who were not familiar with each other, acted as if they had made an appointment to pass on the Spring Festival Gala comedy sketch.

The rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala songs was not difficult for Gu Wei and Zeng Li. Gu Wei himself is a professional singer. In terms of singing skills, he said that he is worthy of anyone except a national-level singer.

The performance of the song, which lasted about 4 minutes, was quickly finished, and the two people left the stage and returned to their dressing room.

After a while, Shen Teng knocked on the door and came in, giving Gu Wei some signed photos of himself.

Under Gu Wei's warm reception, he sat down and chatted with Gu Wei for a while.

Shen Teng has a truly extroverted personality and is a true Northeasterner. What he is best at is chatting.

With Gu Wei's intentional friendship, the relationship between the two quickly deepened as they chatted.

From the beginning, Teacher Gu Wei and Teacher Shen Teng gradually began to call themselves brothers.

Finally, the two met to have time to eat and drink together, and Shen Teng reluctantly left the dressing room.

"You seem to think highly of him?"

After Shen Teng left, Zeng Li, who had been an audience the whole time, spoke.

"Don't you think Shen Teng is interesting?"

Gu Wei smiled.

"He is a sketch actor, so it is normal to have comedy talent and a sense of humor."

Zeng Li didn't see any difference between Shen Teng and other comedians, and it was worthy of Gu Wei to go out of his way to make friends with him.

"Now that Teacher Zhao Benshan has withdrawn from the Spring Festival Gala, I am optimistic that he will take over from Teacher Zhao and become the next king of sketches, or the king of comedy!"

"The King of Comedy? Him? Is it possible?"

Zeng Li didn't expect Gu Wei to think so highly of Shen Teng. She never saw what kind of ability that man had to become the king of comedy.

Gu Wei smiled and did not answer Zeng Li's last three questions. Time will tell everything.

No one would have thought that Shen Teng, who is still a rising star in the sketch world, could not be deeply involved in the Spring Festival Gala stage like his predecessor Zhao Benshan, but instead entered the film and television industry and has been out of control ever since.

Later, even if Shen Teng cannot be called the king of comedy of the new generation, no one can object to being called the box office king of domestic comedy movies.

In Gu Wei's view, there are actually only two actors with real box office appeal in the film industry in the future, one is "Wolf Warrior" Wu Jing and the other is Shen Teng.

Others like Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Yi, etc., although they are not inferior to these two in terms of celebrity status, they are still far behind in the box office appeal of their movies.

Let’s not talk about Wu Jing for the moment. In the later period of Shen Teng, any movie he participated in, even if it was a supporting role, the audience would go to the cinema to watch it because of his starring role.

A new word was also invented: "Teng content". The longer Shen Teng plays in the movie, the higher the box office of the movie will be.

When Gu Wei saw Shen Teng today, in addition to being optimistic about his future development and making friends in advance, an idea suddenly came to his mind.

He could save time to film "The Richest Man in Xihong City", find Shen Teng and Mary to star, and find the original film directors Yan Fei and Peng Damo to direct it.

This is not impossible to achieve.

The movie "Charlotte's Trouble" that Shen Teng has finished filming is adapted from the stage play of the same name as "Happy Twist", so the movie can only be produced by "Happy Twist", and other people can only invest money, and it depends on the producer. agree.

But "The Richest Man in Xihong City" released in 2018 is different. This movie has nothing to do with the "Happy Twist" stage play. It is based on the 1985 movie "Brewster's Millionaire" produced by Universal Pictures. of.

So as long as Gu Wei spends some money to buy the rights to adapt this old movie, he can start preparing for the movie.

And "Charlotte's Trouble" was only released in September this year.

Although Shen Teng is very famous at this stage, he is still a pure newcomer in the film and television industry. When Gu Wei asked him to make a movie, he still wanted to be the male protagonist, so he had no reason to refuse.

Directors Yan Fei and Peng Damo were only two little-known stage directors before the success of "Charlotte Troubles".

It is not difficult to ask them to make a movie.

It can be said that at this stage, these people are the most cost-effective. When the movie "Charlotte Trouble" becomes a big hit in September, the price will be different.
