Chapter 592 Opening
Zhu Muzhi, Ding Qiao, and Wu Lengxi are still at the scene.
Four telephones were set up and the operators were ready. This year there will still be an on-demand session for the audience. Most of the audience were family members of the actors, invited model workers, March 8th red flag bearers, and some votes of favor.
The staff are all veterans who came here last year, have experience, and are generally busy but not chaotic.
Chen Qi and Huang Yihe were making final preparations. He hid Fei Xiang from anyone present, but Fei Xiang''s mother and grandmother had already arrived. Grandma put on her best clothes, her gray hair was neatly combed, and she was a rich and energetic old lady.
Bi Lina is sitting next to her, and the camera will not show her. Fei Xiang''s return is a few years earlier than in history. Who knows what will happen.
He went over to say a few greetings, and when it was 7:45, someone suddenly came over in a hurry: "Teacher Chen! The child keeps crying, what should I do?"
"Where''s the fuck?"
"I can''t even **** coax him!"
"I''ll go take a look!"
Chen Qi ran to the backstage and saw a fat, white child about 5 years old, howling.
His mother''s hair was so anxious that her hair was almost turning white. She coaxed and frightened her: "Xiao Zu, Zong, can you finish the show and then cry again? Mom will buy you delicious food... If you cry again, I''ll beat you!"
"What''s going on? Why are you crying?"
"If you want to eat candy, I give you a piece of candy and say it doesn''t taste good. I also say you want chocolate. Where can I get chocolate at night?"
His mother was holding white rabbits, prawn cakes, and fruit gummy candies, but the child didn''t even look at them.
Some candies, dried fruits and snacks were prepared on site. There was really no chocolate, and it was impossible to go out and buy it on New Year’s Eve. Chen Qi patiently turned around twice with his hands on his hips, and suddenly said: "Go and ask Comrade Gong Xue to bring her bag!"
A staff member rushed away, and in the blink of an eye, Gong Xue ran over with a bag: "What''s wrong? What''s wrong?"
"Do you have any chocolate?"
"ah?"
"Did you bring any chocolate?"
"I''ll look for it!"
Gong Xue hurriedly rummaged through the bag. She loves sweets and usually has the habit of bringing some White Rabbit and chocolate. Today she was lucky and found a piece of chocolate imported from Italy.
"Kid, I''ll give you one, please don''t cry, okay?"
"Uh-huh!"
The child took it and happily bit it in his mouth. Chen Qi rolled his eyes and told his mother: "Rinse your mouth after eating to prevent your teeth from turning black."
"I''m so sorry for causing you trouble!"
"It''s okay, just perform well."
This kid was the first one to start the show, and he started in 15 minutes, otherwise he wouldn''t be in such a hurry.
It''s hard to find chubby children these days. Chen Qi asked around and borrowed the grandson of an old cadre. Children are emotionally unstable, but fortunately they are smart and perform well.
"Teacher Chen! There are still 10 minutes!"
"Five minutes left!"
"Spring Festival Gala preview is over!"
"Countdown now!"
"Comrades, the light of glory is at this moment, let us welcome this night of victory!"
Chen Qi imitated the tone of the translator, waving his arms to create atmosphere. One thing he said was that although CCTV employees were dissatisfied with him, they sincerely found working with him to be very interesting and exciting, which they could not experience normally.
…
Behind the rapid expansion of the Spring Festival Gala''s influence is the popularity of television.
By the end of last year, there were 35 million TV sets in the country, and this number was the basis for the Spring Festival Gala. With last year''s good start, this year people across the country spontaneously stayed in front of the TV early, waiting to watch the party.
Capital, large courtyard.
A family was happily preparing for the New Year. The work unit distributed a lot of things. Each employee received three pounds of Fu Qiang noodles, one pound of miscellaneous beans, one pound of glutinous rice, four ounces of peanut oil, and two pounds of fish, including half a pound of yellow croaker, as well as pork and apples. , dried fruits, etc. The happiest thing is that I finally got the TV I had been waiting in line for for a long time half a month ago.
There were more than a dozen people crowded into two bungalows. An old man wanted to go to the toilet outside, but was afraid of delaying watching TV. He was struggling repeatedly. Others laughed: "You still have time to go now, hurry up!"
"No, let''s start now!"
"Ouch, the countdown is on!"
"You make a trip in 30 seconds!"
"I''m not going! I can''t hold it in anymore!"
Suzhou.
There are tube towers in the north and south, and they can be found all over the country. In a tube building, the kitchen is also located in the corridor, and every household is in full swing. The steam generated by boiling water and cooking rice is enough to raise the temperature.
Eight-treasure rice is steaming in the steamer, and the TV is on in the room. The family chats: "I heard that the bell of Hanshan Temple is ringing this year?"
"Are you going to knock tonight?"
"I don''t know, they should record it, right?"
“We’ve been listening to it for years, but we never thought we’d be able to listen to it on TV.”
There is a bell in Hanshan Temple given by the Japanese, because many Japanese like Hanshan Temple in Chinese culture. In 1979, a "Hanshan Temple New Year''s Eve Bell Listening Group" was organized, with 90 Japanese people making a special trip to listen to the bell.
Later this activity continued.
This Japanese bell is on the right side of Daeungjeon.
As for the bell that "rings to the passenger ship at midnight", the prototype has long since disappeared, and was recast later. This one is placed in the bell tower, and it is the bell that Chen Qi ordered to ring.
…
Last year''s Spring Festival Gala was an instant hit. This year, almost all leaders at all units and levels are waiting to watch the Spring Festival Gala. In the past two years, they have often heard the name of a young comrade named "Chen Qi".
Chen Qi is of low rank, but his works can be seen by leaders.
The lack of entertainment these days affects everyone.
A few years later, Jiang Kun said a cross talk "Big News", satirizing and spreading rumors, saying that Tiananmen Square was going to be turned into a farmer''s market... Good guy, there was a meeting in Haizili, and this cross talk was discussed for a full 15 minutes.
What''s more, it''s the Spring Festival Gala.
Family building of the Ministry of Electronics Industry.
A certain leader also reunited with his family to spend the Spring Festival together. There was the sound of crackling firecrackers outside, and dishes were served on the table. Most of the dishes were ordinary, but there were two or three that ordinary people couldn''t eat.
He likes dishes with rich red sauce, such as steak, elbow, and braised fish.
"5, 4, 3, 2, 1!"
The countdown on the TV ended and the Spring Festival Gala officially began. My family asked: "I heard that this little comrade is hosting this year''s Spring Festival Gala again?"
"Well, we also competed with CCTV."
"Then CCTV hasn''t argued with him? He''s really capable at such a young age. After watching his films and watching others, it''s really hard to describe."
"You can''t say that, most of the films are very good!"
"Eat, eat, watch while you eat!"
The leader smiled, but he was thinking about the young comrade. The two met in the United States last year and exchanged several letters. At first they just exchanged their views on game consoles, and later they talked about movies, and they had quite a common language.
Not yet familiar, but becoming familiar.
The family sat around a round table, and he was naturally in the middle. The food was obviously not as attractive as the Spring Festival Gala. Everyone was holding chopsticks, but their eyes were fixed on the TV.
The countdown ended and another brief animation began.
Then we cut into the studio hall. The scene was still full of flowers and guests, but this time there was no cheerful and festive music, but it was very quiet.
