It is said that the United States is a country that likes to party.
But in fact, if conditions permit, they can't even compare to China.
There are really surprisingly many gatherings in China.
Especially at the end of the year, when the Spring Festival is approaching, if you are a well-known person, you may not be able to keep your toes on the ground all day long.
It's late October now, but Huajing City is already starting to get lively.
This year’s Spring Festival is very early, and January 27th next year will be New Year’s Eve.
Therefore, the topic of Chun Wan has already started to become lively as early as September.
In fact, Chun Wan's directing team has been busy since July.
Now in October, basically the first batch of programs to participate in the selection have already set a certain pace.
The first program list will be released in November at the latest.
If you don't even make it to this list, then there is no hope of entering Chunwan.
As the chief director of this year's Chunwan, Du Hongjuan is also a well-known mid-level and senior management member of China Television. She has long held the important position of deputy director in the variety show channel and had done a Chunwan a few years ago.
Last year Luo Chen produced Chun Wan. With the participation of Zhao Changshou, Shen Huan and Shui Qianyu, "A Laugh in the Sea" became the program with the highest ratings in the past ten years, so it immediately had the finishing touch. .
Therefore, it is very difficult to be the chief director this year. Many people have rejected it. As a last resort, Du Hongjuan can only take over.
Every Chunwan is not simple, and everyone knows what goes on inside.
If it were made into a TV series, more than 300 episodes could be made around Chun Wan in any year, and every episode would be wonderful, with absolutely no spots.
Du Hongjuan also inevitably encountered a lot of troubles.
When people are troubled, they want to find a friend to talk to and talk to.
What Du Hongjuan is looking for today is her high school and college classmate, currently the number one gold medal music producer in the country - Lan Kai.
Although Phoenix Records is headquartered in Shanghai, Lan Kai's home is in Huajing, and the mainstay king Tang Yuan's home is also in Huajing.
Both of them are 49 years old this year, so it is impossible for anyone to suspect an affair when they go out for a party, which is an unexpected surprise.
As a native of Huajing, now is the autumn season, so sheep and scorpions are definitely indispensable.
The two of them randomly found a time-honored restaurant and started eating and drinking at the window seat without even entering the private room.
Looking at these two middle-aged men, I have no idea what kind of power they represent in the entertainment industry.
Lan Kai had a drink with her, took a sip of Erguotou, and said with a smile: "Xiaojuan, I have a lot of things to do during the Spring Festival, and I still come out to drink with you. Am I, Lao Lan, a good friend?"
"Put it down!" Du Hongjuan put down her wine glass and taunted while eating the scorpions: "Can you be as busy as me this year? In these few months, I have been the busiest person in China!"
Lan Kai listened happily, "That's true! If I were in your position, I'm sure I wouldn't even be able to sleep well!"
"Who says it's not?" Du Hongjuan sighed, "It's not the busiest time now. December and January will be extremely busy. All the joints have to be opened. It's uncomfortable at the top, but there's also a lot of trouble at the bottom. Even if we complain, the audience is often dissatisfied, and we, the people in the middle, suffer the most!”
"Just try your best, don't be so entangled." Lan Kai continued to comfort: "Even if we don't do the best, we can't do the worst!"
"That's all I can think about now."
Du Hongjuan clinked another glass with him, took a big sip, and then said: "Lao Lan, this year there is a singing program from Heijiang."
"Huh?" Lan Kaijing waited for her to speak.
"It belongs to Zhang Dongyao." Du Hongjuan said lightly.
Lan Kai frowned, "Dongzi is coming back? Why didn't he tell me?"
"He didn't tell me. I saw that among the programs selected by the TV station over there, there was a singing program of his, which was the song he sang back then, "The Era of White Clothes."" Du Hongjuan said, "But this program is a scheduled program. Those at the back are not sure about coming to Heijiang, so they are just used to make up the numbers."
"But why are we looking for him? He hasn't sung for fifteen years!" Lan Kai said with a wry smile, "The song "The Era of White Clothes" was a classic back then, but now, it's too old! Nowadays, everyone is the most What I like is the song written by 18-year-old Shen Huan."
Du Hongjuan nodded, "So I went to ask people in Heijiang, and they said that Dongzi has been having a hard time in the past few years, and he has been singing in small bars...
Because a director from Heijiang TV Station is our junior and he used to be a fan of his, so after seeing him in a bar this year, I wanted to help him. "
"Is he willing?" Lan Kai was surprised. "We persuaded him so much back then and gave him all kinds of support, but he just refused to come out!"
"Under the pressure of life, who can remain ignorant?" Du Hongjuan said about the news she heard, "Now his children have grown up, his wife is in poor health, and his father has many illnesses... There are so many troubles at home. It's all solved by him being a resident singer, and my life is very tight! I can wear one piece of clothing for three years."
"How many middle-aged men are in trouble?" Lan Kai shook his head, "So you want to help him?"
"Well, we have been classmates and friends for so many years. Before his mother died of illness, Dongzi was a very cheerful and generous person." Du Hongjuan showed a look of recollection: "At that time, I was still in China Dongzi, a hard-working clerk at the TV station, saw that I didn’t have enough money to eat delicious food and I was so thin, so he called a few of us who were in a bad situation out for a big meal in the name of a class reunion.
At that time, I thought sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork, braised pork with pickled vegetables, hot pot, barbecue... everything was delicious and fragrant! It's a pity that if I try to eat those things now, I really don't feel anything at all! "
"It's different today." Lan Kai took a sip of wine: "Have you decided? Involve his singing in Chunwan?"
"It's so easy, why am I asking you to drink to relieve your worries today?" Du Hongjuan rolled her eyes at him: "Do you think that I, the chief director, am number one and can do whatever I want
The best I can do is give his show a first try. Based on his current popularity and song reserve, he will not be able to pass the next two censorships! "
"That's true, after all, it's been fifteen years since he left the music scene!" Lan Kai's eyes were also full of memories.
"Hey, I'm telling you, don't act stupid here." Du Hongjuan rolled her eyes at him again: "Hurry up and find a way for me!"
"What can I think of?" Lan Kai smiled bitterly. "I give him a song? I have a lot of songs, but can he accept my charity
Besides, my song is not Xiao Huan’s song. Can I guarantee that he will enter Chun Wan smoothly? "
Du Hongjuan smiled when she looked at him.
Such a smile made Lan Kai feel a little frightened, "You... what do you mean?"
"What do you think?" Du Hongjuan clapped his hand, "Lao Lan, you understand!"
"Idiot!"
Lan Kai was completely shocked, "I'm going to eat your meal and you want me to do an impossible task?"
"Why is this an impossible task?" Du Hongjuan asked, "Don't be modest. Who doesn't know that you have a good relationship with Teacher Lu Xiaofeng?"
"We have a good relationship, but... we can't reach this point." Lan Kai said, "He has written many songs. You see, even Su Mo only got one song... It would be easier if Dongzi was a woman. . ”
"Get out of here, you!"
Du Hongjuan sipped her wine, "I don't care, Dongzi was very good to you back then. It would be unmanly for you to just sit back and watch!"
"I'm not… "
"Think about our youthful years." Du Hongjuan's eyes were a little blurry, "What a good time it was back then! How innocent we were! If now, we have to consider our own gains and losses when helping Dongzi, is this life? Is your life too meaningless? It’s all about chasing fame and fortune, isn’t it empty?”
"I know all these truths. What you said is correct, but can you guarantee that if Xiaohuan writes a song, Dongzi will want it?" Lan Kai was still making the final struggle.
"Have you heard Meng Zijing's songs "Comprehension" and "Taste"?" Du Hongjuan suddenly changed the topic.
"Of course I've heard of it, it's a super classic written by Xiao Huan!" Lan Kai nodded subconsciously.
"He can even write Meng Zijing's thoughts deeply into her heart. Is it difficult to tailor a song for Dongzi?" Du Hongjuan said confidently, "Are there any songs in this world that Teacher Lu Xiaofeng cannot tailor? "
"You are awesome!"
Lan Kai felt that there was a reason why Du Hongjuan became the chief director of Chun Wan!
Such strong words are simply incredible!
It’s just that it’s hard for him. What should he do to complete this arduous task
