Hearing Lin Yuan bring up this topic again, Tong Shuwen smiled helplessly, feeling mixed emotions.
In Tong Shuwen’s opinion:
The song programs presented by Xianyu are very worth looking forward to!
He knew the reason why Yu Wangchao withdrew from the Zhongzhou Spring Festival Gala. It was not because his program was not up to standard, but simply because the Spring Festival Gala did not want to give Yu Wangchao so many performance opportunities.
In other words:
The song programs prepared by Xianyu are up to the standards of the Zhongzhou Spring Festival Gala!
The quality of music programs that can meet the review standards of the Zhongzhou Spring Festival Gala must be good!
also.
The dance program that Xianyu put forward shouldn’t be too bad.
After all, Xianyu is the founder of "Moonwalk" and has his own research on dance.
but…
Xianyu also wanted to find Chu Kuang to write scripts for crosstalk and sketches, but Tong Shuwen couldn't understand it.
What happened to the saying that everyone has their own specialties
How can Chu Kuang, a writer who likes to write tragedies, create comedy shows such as crosstalk and sketches
But he didn't say anything on the phone.
These shows will eventually be rejected anyway.
Thinking of this.
Tong Shuwen said, "Then you can come to Qinzhou TV tomorrow. I'll go say hello to the leaders of the station first. The first review of the Spring Festival Gala program will be held this afternoon. We won't conduct an internal review of Yu Dynasty's program yet. Come back for the second review. After all, it has reached Zhongzhou's standards. The chorus song you wrote for us before will also be performed in the second review. The station hasn't rehearsed much yet."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Tong Shuwen came to the TV station and entered the director's office.
The director of Qinzhou TV Station is Jiao Xiong. When he saw Tong Shuwen, he smiled and said, "You've come just in time. We're going to officially start the first round of review for this year's Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala this afternoon, right?"
"Yes."
Tong Shuwen said, "I have something I want to tell the director. The length of our Spring Festival Gala may need to be changed."
"Change the duration?"
Jiao Xiong frowned: "The existing programs can't make up four hours?"
The Blue Planet Spring Festival Gala usually lasts about six hours, because its target audience is the eight continents of Blue Planet!
Local Spring Festival Galas are usually only four hours long because of their small scale and the target audience is only within the continent.
"no."
Tong Shuwen laughed and said, "You misunderstood. What I meant is that we may have to increase the duration of the Spring Festival Gala to six hours!"
"What?"
Jiao Xiong thought he had misheard: "Didn't you say before that the quality of our Spring Festival Gala this year is very average, and four hours might not be enough? You want to increase it to six hours?"
"Yes."
Tong Shuwen said seriously: "Not only the duration needs to be increased, but also the stage scale. We need to use the best stage. I plan to rent some top-notch equipment from Zhongzhou to make the stage effects the best!"
"no!"
Jiao Xiong was stunned and said: "It's just a local Spring Festival Gala, why are you making such a big scene? We only have so much funding!"
Tong Shuwen asked mysteriously, "Fang Mokan, you know that, right?"
Jiao Xiong nodded: "Everyone knows the boss of Qinzhou Nv'erhong Wine Industry. He is a wealthy man in our Qinzhou... He wants to sponsor it!?"
Jiao Xiong suddenly reacted!
Tong Shuwen smiled and nodded.
Jiao Xiong's eyes lit up: "How much is the sponsorship?"
Tong Shuwen raised three fingers.
Jiao Xiong's eyes dimmed a little: "Thirty million? That's not enough."
"no."
"Three hundred million?"
Jiao Xiong was surprised again.
Tong Shuwen shook his head: "It's not 300 million, just say it boldly!"
"Be bold?"
Jiao Xiong was frightened and spoke tentatively: "Three... three... thirty..."
"Three billion!"
Tong Shuwen didn't want to keep it a secret anymore: "I have already contacted Nv'erhong Winery and will sign the contract tonight. The station director will have to go there in person to host the event!"
Jiao Xiong was stunned and jumped up!
Did Fang Mokan take the wrong medicine
Jiao Xiong could fully understand why the other party sponsored the Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala. Firstly, Fang Mokan was from Qinzhou, and secondly, the Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala still had many audiences in the province, so it would not be too much of a loss to sponsor it.
But in Jiao Xiong's opinion, a sponsorship of two or three hundred million yuan at most would be enough!
Three billion
This is the price for sponsoring the Zhongzhou Spring Festival Gala!
Tong Shuwen completely understood the director's shock, but the shock he brought to the director was not over yet: "In addition, Yanyan Hotpot is also willing to sponsor our Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala for 2 billion."
The director subconsciously held onto the table.
This news is so exciting!
Nv'erhong Wine Industry donated 3 billion...
Yanyan Hotpot also sponsored 2 billion...
A local Spring Festival Gala in Qinzhou actually attracted 5 billion in sponsorship!
If you don’t know, you might think that this year’s Blue Star Spring Festival Gala was hosted by Zhongzhou!
The Director even doubts that Zhongzhou cannot get such a high sponsorship fee!
"Why?"
"Because of Teacher Xianyu."
Tong Shuwen spoke, but he actually didn't know why.
Yanyan Hotpot can still be barely understood, after all, it is Sun Yaohuo’s business, but what about Fang Mokan
"you mean… "
The director suppressed his inner shock and said, "Are these all sponsorships obtained by Teacher Xianyu?"
Although the news that Yu Dynasty broke up with Zhongzhou Spring Festival Gala and turned to join Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala was not announced to the public, Jiao Xiong certainly knew about it.
"Yes."
Tong Shuwen said, "Teacher Xianyu's idea is to hold a Spring Festival Gala that is comparable to Zhongzhou's. Do you have any opinions?"
"What can I say?"
The director was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He didn’t even dare to express any opinion. If he said anything, what if others stopped sponsoring
“Let’s do it!”
He suddenly felt heroic, as the stimulus brought by money was immense: "Do whatever you want. We'll follow the standards of the Blue Star Spring Festival Gala and take the audiences from all eight continents as potential viewers!"
Stage specifications, please!
Special effects arrangement, on!
Programs often, plus!
Foreign stars, please!
Any problem that can be solved with money should be solved with money. No matter how much we squander this budget, it is more than enough!
Is the program quality not good enough
With these sponsorship fees, we can achieve a certain level of stage quality even if we lose money!
I dare not say what the upper limit is, after all, it still depends on the work, but the lower limit has been determined!
"Then the first trial this afternoon was brutal."
Tong Shuwen said that the standards of Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala had been raised, and the original programs seemed a bit disappointing.
…
afternoon.
Qinzhou Television Station.
The first trial scene in the studio.
There were some audience members sitting in the audience at this time.
These audiences were certainly not recruited from the streets.
Their identities are very special, they are all staff members of the director team and relevant leaders of Qinzhou TV Station.
"Let's get started."
Director Tong Shuwen spoke.
Then some rehearsed programs were performed on the stage one by one.
This process lasted for several hours, and when the first trial was completely over, it was already dark.
“No way.”
Jiao Xiong watched the show for an afternoon and had come out of the sky-high sponsorship fee. However, the impact of the added sponsorship fee was manifested in another form. The direct consequence was that Jiao Xiong became arrogant: "Except for the magic design, Fei Yang's song, and the final dance, the other programs did not meet the standards of the Zhongzhou stage at all."
Okay.
The director is now also starting to benchmark against Zhongzhou.
At this moment, everyone has dispersed, and only the station director Jiao Xiong and director Tong Shuwen are left in the studio audience.
"It's true."
The director was not satisfied, and Tong Shuwen was even more dissatisfied.
If there weren't so much sponsorship money, and these programs were only judged by the standards of local Spring Festival Galas, they would actually barely pass. But now that the stage has been upgraded to countless levels, these programs are completely not good enough.
After spending so much money, they ended up producing a Spring Festival Gala of this level
Then the reputation of his Tongshuwen would be completely destroyed, and Qinzhou TV Station would never be able to hold its head up again.
"I'll leave it to you."
The director patted Tong Shuwen on the shoulder and said, "I'm not as professional as you in this area. You control the quality and do whatever needs to be done."
"Understood."
Tong Shuwen nodded.
…
After the first trial of Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala.
Performers from different shows were removing their makeup, changing clothes, etc. backstage.
at the same time.
Everyone chatted nervously.
“I wonder what the result of the first trial will be?”
"There should be no problem with our skits. The quality should be no worse than last year."
"The dance performed by the art troupe was also well choreographed and received a lot of applause, but the station director and the director didn't seem to react much."
"I feel like that magic trick will definitely pass!"
"The response to the crosstalks by those two seems to be quite average, and the quality is not as good as last year."
"I think it's OK. Those two are already the best crosstalk masters in Qinzhou. You can't compete with the Blue Star Spring Festival Gala."
"Anyway, I feel it's a bit uncertain."
"Today, the station director and director had no expression on their faces the entire time. It seemed that there was no program that satisfied them."
We discussed it for a while.
There was a sudden noise outside the door.
Everyone looked up and greeted: "Director!"
“Thank you for your hard work!”
Tong Shuwen smiled and said, "I'm here to inform you of the result of the first trial."
Suddenly.
Everyone looked at Tong Shuwen.
Tong Shuwen said: "Teacher Fei Yang's song is to be determined; the art troupe's dance is to be determined; Huang Shi's magic is to be determined."
Crash!
The crowd became restless.
The three programs mentioned by Tong Shuwen are the three programs with the best response tonight, but the results are just to be determined
In the crowd.
Fei Yang was also confused!
He didn't expect that his song would not pass the first review directly!
At this time.
Tong Shuwen added: "All the remaining programs will be rejected, and some people's programs will be eliminated directly."
Now everyone was blown away!
The result of the first trial was a complete defeat!
“No way!”
"Director, are you kidding?"
"Our programs will definitely be good enough for local Spring Festival Galas!"
"The dance of our art troupe is definitely better than that of other continents. Except for Central Continent, we will definitely get the highest rating this year!"
"This elimination rate is too exaggerated!"
“Are the standards in the station too exaggerated this year?”
"I don't understand!"
Everyone really doesn’t understand!
Even if these programs are not the best, they generally meet the standards of local Spring Festival Galas. Why did they fail
Not a single one passed!
The best shows are all TBD!
Tong Shuwen knew that the performers would be upset, so he could only comfort them by saying, "I will inform you of any arrangements later. We have raised the standard this year. Thank you for your hard work."
…
the next day.
Lin Yuan came to Qinzhou TV Station.
Tong Shuwen was waiting for Lin Yuan in the studio. When he saw him, he quickly stood up and said, "The sponsorship was finalized last night. We signed contracts with Nv'erhong Winery and Yanyan Hotpot."
"Um."
"However, the results of our first trial are somewhat disappointing. There are not many good programs. We may have to eliminate a large number of people, and the remaining people will prepare other programs. However, the specific programs have not been decided yet, so we have to find someone to design them again."
"I have some shows here."
"I've been waiting!"
Although crosstalk and skits are not reliable, Tong Shuwen still attaches great importance to the songs and dances prepared by Lin Yuan:
"Where's the program?"
"It's all on this."
Lin Yuan took out a printed document.
Tong Shuwen was a little puzzled, feeling that the information was a little thick
So much information was used
He subconsciously turned to the first page of the information, and was stunned. The cover page turned out to be a program list!
song
dance
Sketches
crosstalk
acrobatics
magic
Martial Arts
drama
Special Effects
…
Tong Shuwen counted them.
A full fifty shows!
Xianyu actually provided most of the programs for this year's Spring Festival Gala!
It was ok that there were songs, dances, sketches and crosstalk, Lin Yuan had mentioned them before, but what on earth were the acrobatics, magic, opera, martial arts and special effects?!
“This is not right!”
"What's wrong?"
“There are too many shows!”
“Quality is the key.”
“Of course I know that quality is the key, the problem is…”
The question is whether your programs are of quality!
Tong Shuwen kept saying this, but he didn't dare to say it. He just smiled wryly and said, "Why did you arrange all the programs? Do you know all of these?"
Lin Yuan: “I know a thing or two.”
These four words again, Tong Shuwen didn't know how to answer, and after a long silence, he asked, "Are there any specific program plans for the future?"
"Take a look."
Tong Shuwen rubbed his temple and turned the page. A few minutes later, his expression became a little strange.
It seems quite similar
Text description cannot restore the appearance of the program.
However, the text description gives us a glimpse into the show, especially since Lin Yuan even drew a picture to express it more accurately!
For example, now.
This dance picture that Tong Shuwen saw!
It’s a very magical dance. There’s only one person standing in the front with countless hands extending around his body!
This image is like the "Thousand-Armed Guanyin" described in mythology!
No.
The name of this dance program is Thousand-Armed Guanyin!
If this dance could really be performed...
Tong Shuwen couldn’t imagine it, the dance design was too amazing!
In terms of shocking degree, it is probably no less than the first appearance of the moonwalk!
For example, the close-up magic show at the end is called "The Magic Pot".
This magic is so amazing!
If it could really be shown, it would definitely shock the whole audience!
The question is:
Is this thing really possible
Tong Shuwen couldn't help but ask.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "This magic trick is not as amazing as you think. There is a mechanism in the pot. However, I didn't write down the principle. I can communicate with the magician later. He will understand what I mean."
“Did you design this too?”
"I just happen to know a little bit of magic."
Tong Shuwen didn't say anything else. He continued reading. He skipped over some parts that he didn't understand, but he could understand the crosstalk.
"Five senses competing for merit?"
Crosstalk is a language text that ordinary people can understand. Just by reading the lines of the supporting role and the funny role, one can imagine the performance effect of the crosstalk to a certain extent. However, after reading a few lines, Tong Shuwen was completely numb!
"Written by Chu Kuang!?"
“He happens to understand a little bit.”
It took Tong Shuwen more than an hour to finish watching these programs. During this process, Lin Yuan answered his questions from time to time. When he closed the program list, Tong Shuwen didn't know what words to use to describe the horror in his heart!
This moment!
The way he looked at Lin Yuan was as if he was looking at a monster!
If there is a legendary magic mirror, he must look at Lin Yuan!
No!
This show also features works by Chu Kuang and Yingzi!
Needless to say, Chu Kuang's crosstalk and sketches were amazing. Without seeing the actual performance, Tong Shuwen was stunned just by reading the lines!
For example, the program wants to present a special effect of a "dragon".
Special effects image design is extremely difficult. It is necessary to fully present the majesty and dominance of the dragon. This issue has given Tong Shuwen a headache before.
result.
There is a dragon on this program!
The image of this dragon is simply awesome, and Shadow’s name is clearly written in the author column!
also.
Other special effects and shadows were also designed. The high-level aesthetic and gorgeous painting style made Tong Shuwen so excited that his hair stood on end!
Wouldn't the audience go crazy if these images were presented using special effects
Therefore.
The real evildoers are far more than just Lin Yuan, there are also the two big guys Chu Kuang and Yingzi!
"hiss."
Taking a deep breath, Tong Shuwen stood up and calmed himself down again and again: "Who are you going to let perform in our skits?"
"Are you talking about this?"
Lin Yuan looked at one of the skits called "Eating Noodles" and said with a smile, "Shi Yan and Chen Feng from Qizhou, please come."
Lin Yuan has not only prepared the show recently, but also done a lot of homework.
He watched countless videos!
Sketches, crosstalk, acrobatics, magic and so on!
After watching these videos, Lin Yuan already knows which people are most suitable for these programs!
"And for this show, I have to go to Zhaozhou to find someone..."
"This magic show is a bit difficult to perform, but I heard that Weizhou has a close-up magic master, maybe he can give it a try..."
"And..."
Lin Yuan read out the list like a treasure trove.
Tong Shuwen stared at Lin Yuan for a while, then suddenly asked, "Then I'll leave?"
"ah?"
"You are more suitable to be the director of the Spring Festival Gala than me!"
“Not really.”
"Why don't you be the chief producer or chief planner of the Qinzhou Spring Festival Gala? In short, it's a very important title, on par with me as the director. Otherwise, I really don't dare to be the director anymore. There are some programs here that we must do, and there are some that I don't quite understand and it depends on the specific performance effects. I'm now struggling with the order of these programs. Normal galas have a finale, but with your program list here, I don't know who will be the finale. It feels like many of the programs in it can be the finale!"
Tong Shuwen is in a panic!
He now feels like he doesn't exist!
Even if it's a fucking pig, with these programs, it can bring a Spring Festival Gala feast to the audience!
Benchmarking Zhongzhou
Even though it has received so much money, Tong Shuwen only dares to say that it is comparable to Zhongzhou in terms of stage specifications!
As for the quality of the show
He really doesn't have the courage!
However, now he could feel his heart beating wildly, and he was already feeling a little "evil-like"!
"You can call it whatever you want."
Lin Yuan really doesn’t care, he just wants the results.
How could the essence of the Spring Festival Gala over the years not be able to produce such an effect
Then Lin Yuan might as well find a piece of tofu and kill himself, so that the Shadow Painting Soul series will become the last one.
"call!"
Tong Shuwen adjusted his breathing again, and then continued: "Some of the people you just mentioned are not easy to invite. For example, the two famous skit masters from Qizhou have not been on the Spring Festival Gala for two years. Even Zhongzhou contacted them this year, but in the end they were not invited because their principle is that they would rather not go on if there is no good program."
Lin Yuan said straightforwardly: "What if there is a good program?"
Tong Shuwen: "...Don't say anything. Starting tomorrow, I, Tong Shuwen, will travel all over Blue Star!"
There is nothing that can't be solved by spending money!
If so, it must be because you didn’t spend enough money!
What
Artists regard money as dirt
I like you just like this!
Don't be in a hurry!
Let's watch this show...
Do you like it
Want to perform

ps: It's not that Wubai has become a once-update beast. In fact, the number of words is the same as before. I just think that reading it this way may improve the overall reading experience. As for the outbreak and so on, let's wait for Wubai to sort out the plot of this local Spring Festival Gala. I have been looking up information recently. For example, today I was watching Zhu Shimao and Chen Peisi's "Protagonists and Supporting Roles", wondering if I could make some changes to it, but in the end I felt it was a bit forced, so I decided to just use eating noodles. This program is more meaningful for sketches, because this is the first sketch in my great China. Before this, there was no concept of sketches in China!
