Chapter 45
After the song "Chinese" ended, Lin Yixiang walked into the backstage passage.
The photo of him saluting with a special audience member was taken by the on-site photographer and uploaded to the official Weibo, and it immediately went viral on the Internet.
Zhao Jianshe was waiting for him in the lounge, and showed him the photo as soon as he saw him.
The on-site photographer captured a good angle, and Lin Yixiang on the stage and the veterans below the stage saluted each other.
Lin Yixiang bowed under the bright lights and the solemnity of the saluting old people below the stage formed a sharp contrast.
Lin Yixiang was very surprised after seeing it, and immediately forwarded the official Weibo with a text.
"I feel very honored to be in the same frame with the heroes."
After he removed his makeup and changed his clothes, Zhao Jianshe pulled him to Dong Xiang.
When Dong Xiang saw him, he gave him another big hug.
"Old Lin, you are really my lucky star."
Lin Yixiang also smiled and patted his back.
When he was singing just now, he had already felt the enthusiasm of the audience. It is conceivable how enthusiastic the program would be on the Internet.
"The data is very good?"
Dong Xiang shook his head: "Not very good, it is directly explosive!"
Real-time ratings are data that every evening party director must pay attention to.
Dong Xiang is a very serious person and is focused on his work, which is why he can make so many classic movies.
Logically speaking, he should now focus on the evening party, instead of doing two things at the same time, both presiding over the overall situation and paying attention to the data.
There is only one reason why he violated his usual standards.
This year's Spring Festival Gala!
Every year in China's Spring Festival Gala, there will be a director competition segment.
The way to select directors this year is different from previous years.
The station will select several directors who are interested in directing the Spring Festival Gala and give them the various evening parties that span the whole year to host.
At that time, the most suitable director will be selected from the few people based on the situation of each evening party.
So this year's competition has already started from the Lantern Festival Gala at the beginning of the year.
In today's era where the Internet is king, the ratings of CCTV's major evening parties are actually declining year by year, and sometimes they can't even beat local stations.
For this reason, the leaders of CCTV racked their brains and worked together to come up with such a solution.
Several candidates who have the hope of being the director of the Spring Festival Gala have been working hard at the evening party in order to compete for the only spot.
The evening party that has been worked hard on has naturally changed a lot.
The most obvious thing is that everyone has found that the various evening parties that were a bit boring before have become interesting.
From creativity to stage design, from big-name actors to first-line singers, many faces and programs that had never appeared in the evening party before have also begun to bloom everywhere.
It is no wonder that many netizens have posted questions online, asking why this year's major evening parties are more exciting than previous years.
After Dong Xiang's National Day evening party, it is the New Year's Day evening party.
The host of the New Year's Day evening party is a veteran evening party director with rich experience and strong ability.
He is also Dong Xiang's biggest competitor on the road to becoming the director of the Spring Festival Gala.
Originally, Dong Xiang was a little worried, but judging from today's data, the director of the Spring Festival Gala is likely to be him.
This year's National Day evening party, when Lin Yixiang sang "Chinese", the ratings had already broken the peak of the previous evening parties, becoming the evening party with the highest ratings in the past three years.
That's why he called Lin Yixiang a lucky star.
After the two hugged, Dong Xiang took the opportunity to invite Lin Yixiang.
If he can become the director of the Spring Festival Gala, he must invite Lin Yixiang to sing a song.
Being able to sing on the Spring Festival Gala is the dream opportunity of every singer in China.
Lin Yixiang naturally agreed.
Before leaving, Dong Xiang even nudged Lin Yixiang with his elbow, asking Lao Qiao to make him another song suitable for the Spring Festival Gala.
Faced with Dong Xiang's request, Lin Yixiang laughed dumbly.
"Didn't you doubt him before? Why are you begging him now?"
"Hey, I'm not begging at all. It's a win-win situation at most."
"By the way, if you have a chance, please introduce Lao Qiao to me. I think there should be opportunities for cooperation between him and me in the future."
"Got it. Come to Shanghai when you have time. I'll take him to treat you to dinner."
"Then it's settled!"
…………
Qiao Sheng, who was eating barbecue in Shanghai, didn't know that he had been assigned by Lin Yixiang to accompany him for drinking.
He was fighting with Wang Liang for the last few skewers of beef.
The ingredients that Lin Moxue prepared for today's overtime work were not ordinary goods that had been skewered in ordinary supermarkets.
.
As long as she has the conditions, she will not treat herself badly when it comes to eating.
The meat is all high-end ingredients she bought from high-end meat shops, such as Wagyu beef and Iberian pork, which Qiao Sheng had never seen or even heard of before.
Originally, he didn't know these and thought they were just ordinary ingredients.
After the four members of the Raptors Band had a rest after eating, he heard the drummer nicknamed "Canteen" talk about this.
No wonder the four members of the Raptors Band were like starving ghosts reincarnated!
Those are all high-end ingredients!
He was so angry that he immediately rushed over to grab the beef from Wang Liang.
With Wang Liang's physique, grabbing meat from him is like snatching food from a tiger's mouth.
Qiao Sheng was directly caught by him. No matter how he struggled, he could only smell the meat by the grill, but couldn't eat any meat.
This situation continued until Lin Yixiang came on stage and the four of them ran away to watch the performance.
After Lin Yixiang finished his song, Luo Biechen was impressed by the power of Lao Qiao, the song producer, and he wished he had a chance to meet him.
Lin Moxue asked in confusion: "You know him, isn't he grilling there?"
After learning from Lin Moxue that Lao Qiao was Qiao Sheng, the eyes of the Raptors changed instantly when they looked at Qiao Sheng.
That look was like a prisoner who had been imprisoned for more than ten years, and was about to throw himself into the arms of a beautiful woman.
Qiao Sheng saw Wang Liang and the other four drooling over, and was so scared that he quickly protected the skewers in front of him and shouted loudly: "Don't come over!"
…………
Five minutes later, Qiao Sheng moaned.
It's so comfortable!
Wang Liang and Luo Biechen were pounding his shoulders and pressing his hands, and their legs were on the table, and they were very comfortable being pinched by Fan Tang and Zhu Ying.
Du Fei thought it was fun, so he ran over to join in the fun, standing on a small stool to feed Qiao Sheng grapes.
"Brother Sheng, how is it, is this strength okay?" Wang Liang smiled flatteringly.
"Not bad." Qiao Sheng turned his head to look at him, "But I still like the strength you gave me in the cross armbar just now."
"Hey, Brother Qiao, don't argue with a rough guy like Wang Liang." Fan Tang stood up and kicked Wang Liang away.
"Go to the side and grill meat for Brother Qiao, I'll do it."
Wang Liang smiled awkwardly and walked away.
To be honest, the four members of the Raptors Band usually exercise and massage each other to relax their muscles.
The massage techniques and strength of the four people are very good, and Qiao Sheng enjoys it very much.
"I definitely have a song, but whether I want to sing it for you depends on your performance."
After the overtime work was over, Qiao Sheng threw out a word before leaving, which made the four members of the Raptors Band ecstatic.
Kao Baishu said before that the reason why the Raptors Band became famous was mainly due to the four people doing things.
The four of them had no problem with their instruments and singing skills. The only shortcoming was that they had no ability to compose lyrics and music.
Because of this, they were often teased by other bands.
Once, the four of them were unwilling to believe in evil and locked themselves in the rehearsal room for a whole week, trying their best to write some popular songs.
The result is self-evident. Even dogs would shake their heads when they heard the songs they wrote.
As for the band writing songs themselves, they finally chose to give up.
If someone teased them about this again, they would be "kindly" strangled by four big men.
The biggest impact of Dai Jiabin's departure was on the four people who chose to stay and share the hardships with the company.
A band without songs can do nothing. Apart from playing gongs and drums at funerals, they can't think of any other jobs.
