When putting on makeup, he could not read or play with his mobile phone. He could only be at the mercy of the makeup artist. Chen Minhao originally thought that putting on makeup was the most boring thing. Now, Chen Minhao has discovered something more boring than putting on makeup, and that is waiting.
When you are putting on makeup, at least there is a progress bar there, and what you are doing is at least meaningful. But when you are waiting, you can only sit blankly, which is meaningless. The most important thing is that you cannot play with your mobile phone.
Chen Minhao's clothes were provided by Burberry. When he was trying on clothes a few days ago, Chen Minhao asked specifically: "The pockets on this clothes are all fake pockets. I can't even take my mobile phone."
The costume designer at the time chuckled and said confidently: "The pockets of this suit are originally designed to look good. If a mobile phone or key is placed in it, it will destroy the original shape of the suit. This is high-end. Clothes, this set of clothes was not meant to be worn.”
Chen Qiang, who was sitting next to him at the time, felt that his outlook on life had been refreshed. For the first time, he heard that clothes were not meant for wearing.
Because mobile phones cannot be placed in clothes, Chen Minhao handed his mobile phone to Chen Qiang before changing clothes. However, assistants and managers can only wait in another area and cannot enter the waiting room that is directly connected to the stage.
Although during the dress rehearsal, everyone was a little more modest and paid attention to order. But when it came to the day of taking the stage, it was completely based on the celebrity status.
Chen Minhao's seat is small, so although his show was at 11 o'clock, he started putting on makeup at 9 o'clock, finished it at 9:30, and then sat in the waiting area to wait.
There are sofas in the waiting area, but in order to prevent clothes from getting stained, there is no tea or drinks. After several rehearsals, everyone became familiar with each other, but in the waiting area, there was no idea of further communication. A common practice for celebrities is to nod to everyone when they enter, and then nod again when they come on stage.
Chen Minhao could feel that the atmosphere was a little solemn. It was broadcast live and it was real singing. Everyone, including several celebrities who had attended the Spring Festival Gala, was more or less nervous.
Chen Minhao was an exception. He found that he had a bad attitude after time travel. Although it was his first time to attend a national stage party, he was not nervous at all. After all, he had seen bigger scenes. I've seen it before when I traveled through time, so why should I be afraid of this kind of scene
However, Chen Minhao hadn't had a good rest for a month. To be honest, he wasn't nervous, just a little sleepy. Chen Minhao looked around and found that all the celebrities were sitting, especially the two female celebrities in the waiting area, who kept a certain distance from others. After all, they were about to go on stage. What was wrong with his evening dress? No place to cry.
No one struck up a conversation with Chen Minhao, and Chen Minhao gave up the idea of striking up a conversation with anyone else. Singing is different from acting. In the entertainment industry, you may need to build a good relationship with some big guys, but in singing, you only know when others ask for your help, and never when you ask for others. That’s how confident you are! After all, the songs in my head are not for nothing.
There were still 30 minutes to go on stage, but Chen Minhao was sitting on the sofa, getting more and more sleepy. He planned to go for a walk in the aisle to wake up. If he starts to yawn when he goes on stage, the picture will be too beautiful for him to dare to look at.
As soon as he stood up, "Ah" - a tragic cry came from the waiting area and the dressing area.
"Sister Tang Juan, are you okay?"
"Go and call Director Zhang!"
"What's the use of calling the director? Hurry and call the medical staff."
Then there were a lot of running sounds outside the door.
Chen Minhao, who was about to reach the door, forcibly adjusted his direction, turned around, and pretended to study the paintings hanging on the wall. Although Chen Minhao was curious about what happened, he was on the court in 30 minutes. Now was not the time to be curious. Curiosity can really kill the cat sometimes. Anyway, you will definitely know in the end, so there is no need to fight for this moment.
After Chen Minhao pretended to study one painting, he went to study another painting. He glanced at the celebrities present with his peripheral vision, and none of them planned to go out.
Now it was obvious that something had happened to Tang Juan. During the rehearsal, the female star Han Yu, who had always been a good sister to Tang Juan, sat still on the chair and even took a small mirror on the table to look at herself. .
This is right! Both of them are female stars who are dancing solo. Every time they act like sisters, they are so affectionate and it's like saying something! Han Yu, it would be even more perfect if you add a sneer at this time.
Another star pushed open the door and came in. All the stars in the waiting area looked at him, but he kept silent about what was going on outside. No star came forward to ask him.
Within 2 minutes, director Zhang Xushan and assistant director Wang Shuang pushed the door in together.
The two did not exchange greetings, and Wang Shuang said directly: "There is something wrong with Tang Juan. Her program is 4 minutes long. We are live broadcasting, and there is no gap. The host on the stage will delay for a while, but If two hosts have a forced chat on stage, they will definitely not be able to talk for four minutes. Therefore, we need everyone to cooperate."
Director Zhang Xushan said directly: "Brother Long, can you chat on stage for a while?"
The male star named Ying Xinlong nodded and said: "I can chat a few more words, but I can't chat for a few minutes. 4 minutes is not a short time, why don't you consider bringing the later programs to the front."
Director Wang Shuang shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. A single move can affect the whole body. We are live broadcasting now, but the time for commercial breaks is fixed. If a program is scheduled in advance, the later time slots will be messed up, which means Then we may have a situation where commercials are shown in the middle of a program.”
Wang Shuang continued: "Tang Juan's program is at 10:38, then Brother Long's "Five Thousand Years of China", Han Yu's solo "Flowers and Full Moon", Wang Ziyang's magic, and then Chen Minhao's "Father" . There will be commercial breaks after 11:13. In other words, the four of you have to bear Tang Juan's 4 minutes."
The four celebrities who were named did not speak. In fact, Chen Minhao's first reaction was to refuse, and then suggested that the director find a way to adjust the broadcast time of the advertisement.
The director will be grateful for saving this scene, and the program team will be grateful, but the audience is the bread and butter. This is a live broadcast. Without any rehearsal and no script, going up to have an awkward chat with the host can easily become the scene of a car accident.
There are too many things that netizens can diss about, although appearing on the national stage at the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala and the Spring Festival Gala is a symbol of honor and status for celebrities. But in a sense, the pressure is great. In an era when criticizing the national channel's gala has become politically correct, if the rescue is not successful, you will accidentally fall into the cesspool.
"This star has been on the stage for so long, so he must have a backstage."
"This celebrity is too stupid. What nonsense are you talking about?"
In the Internet age, as a celebrity, you must speculate on Chinese netizens with the greatest malice. There are too many keyboard warriors. Even if you speculate on them with the greatest malice, you will still find that their points of criticism are sometimes beyond your imagination.
The rewards were out of proportion to the risks, and Chen Minhao didn't want to do a loss-making business.
Both directors frowned, and director Wang Shuang said: "Which of you can save this scene? I, Wang Shuang, owe you a favor. I am the deputy director of the Spring Festival Gala, and I have certain suggestions on the Spring Festival Gala's programs. The favor I owe will still be with you during the Spring Festival Gala."
Although Wang Shuang didn't say it explicitly, he said it very straightforwardly. Whoever can save this scene will have a great chance of attending the Spring Festival Gala.
Chen Minhao feels that he is turning into a tough Chen Minhao. Going to the Spring Festival Gala is still more attractive to Chen Minhao now.
Han Yu was the first to speak: "The name of my show is "Happy Flowers and Full Moon". I can talk about my creative inspiration on stage and the beautiful blessings contained in "Happy Flowers and Full Moon"."
Not to be outdone, Wang Ziyang said: "I can talk about the characteristics and activities of celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival in my hometown. My family is in southern Yunnan, and it still has some characteristics."
Chen Minhao felt that if he could attend the Spring Festival Gala, he still had to fight for it. Over the past 30 years, the Spring Festival Gala has made a large number of singers popular, and many singers have gained wide recognition. Although the Spring Festival Gala has not been as good as before in recent years, the Spring Festival Gala has always adhered to the three no's principles: vulgar and kitsch programs are not allowed; programs with low style are not allowed; actors with stains and moral flaws are not allowed.
As long as I can attend the Spring Festival Gala, it means that I have escaped from vulgarity and is a talented and popular singer!
This kind of label seems useless, but the benefits are hidden and long-term, a bit similar to the halo in the game. Take the role in "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" as an example. Without the roll call performance of "People's Daily", the possibility of winning the audition and winning the role would be much lower.
Chen Minhao tugged on his collar and said: "My parents came to the scene. In the first row, I sang "Father" again. After I finished singing, I interacted with them. And my program was in four At the end of the show, it will be more convenient for the host and I to control the time."
Han Yu smiled and said: "Xiao Chen, your parents may have never been on the show. If there is no rehearsal beforehand, the effect may not be good."
Chen Minhao affirmed: "The song "Father" itself is about true feelings, and if my parents didn't rehearse, I think that kind of simple and sincere reaction is what the audience wants to see. We can tell the audience, I didn’t know that my parents were here, and my parents didn’t know that there was an interactive session. This will increase the audience’s tolerance. In addition, since something really went wrong, I think the audience will also feel that our The party was very real.
The audience's tolerance for an ordinary person is definitely much higher than that for a celebrity. Director Wang, what do you think? Chen Minhao asked without looking at Han Yu, looking directly at Wang Shuang.
