Chapter 83 Draft Finals
Ten years ago, the TV station building was also one of the landmark buildings in Beijing. After ten years of rapid development, the skyscrapers are built higher and higher. The height of the TV station has been far beyond 100, but it is still a place that many citizens yearn for.
At this time, hundreds of people who could not get tickets to the finals were surrounded by the gate of the TV station building, holding slogans supporting a certain player, including Xu Suhang's name. The reporter was conducting random interviews with them.
"Brother, are you so leisurely today?" Lei Xin brought his brothers to meet him, knowing that Chen Huayao came here for Xu Suhang. It is rare for the Chairman to attach such importance to a girl in his gangster career over the years.
Seeing the chairman dressed neatly and looked neatly, as if he was going to visit his mother-in-law's house, the brothers all smiled strangely.
Chen Huayao took the cigarette handed over by Lei Xin, nodded to several members of the Crab Committee around him and said, "Some members of our committee are not diligent in strengthening their own cultural quality. They spend their lives drunk and dreams every day in bars and nightclubs. I see it, and the pain is in my heart. You are the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. The world belongs to you and ours, but in the final analysis, it is yours. How can you waste your years?"
The people from the Crab Committee looked at each other and didn't say anything.
Chen Huayao continued: "So I set an example, took the lead, and took the time to come to the TV station to watch the finals of the Tiangong talent show, received the influence of culture, and felt the essence of our country's four classics."
Lei Xin held back her laughter and said, "Yes, feel the graceful dance of Sister Chang'e." He led him in. They claimed to be the security personnel hired by the program team. Today's finals specially issued a temporary pass to enter and exit freely.
The elevator was raised to the 28th floor, and a drama business came to guide the way. In the crew, the drama business actually meant to do odd jobs.
The finals were arranged in the performing arts hall dedicated to the entertainment channel. It was quite large in area and was fully equipped with lighting. The curtains behind it were carefully decorated into a vague moon palace effect to meet the theme of this program.
There were about 200 spectators on site, all of whom came from nearby universities, communities, and institutions through ticket gifts.
There was a rostrum at the front of the audience, with five well-dressed men and women sitting upright, and they were judges in the finals.
The signs on the stage indicate their identities, namely director Shao Zhou, role-player Yang Shizhong, role-player of Tiangong Tianpeng, famous dancer Li Yuan, national first-class Yue Opera performing artist Fang Xiu, and deputy general manager of Tianxiang Entertainment Company Lu Guomao.
As for the judges who appeared in the previous few talent shows, such as dancer Xiong Yunyun and director Li Jixue, they were not present.
At this time, the camera arrangement stopped, and the program officially began with the command of the director on the scene.
The coquettish female host brought three contestants to the stage, from left to right, Xu Suhang, Zhang Huan from the Art Academy, and Liang Hongyan from the Drama University, all wore tight miniskirts made by sponsorship companies, showing the youthful and beautiful girlish style.
The host first reviewed the course of the previous few episodes of the competition, then introduced the judges to the audience one by one, and then gave a summary speech by the deputy general manager of Tianxiang Entertainment, encouraging the three contestants who broke through the siege and entered the final to perform well.
Finally, the lights dimmed, and amid the brisk applause of the masses, No. 1 contestant Liang Hongyan began her first talent show.
She had already changed into gorgeous and exquisite Ming Dynasty costumes, accompanied by the music, and her cloud sleeves shook and her waist swayed.
It was a dance selection of partridge songs, as if people saw the night banquet in the Jiangnan season of the Ming Dynasty. The delicate jade hand poured the golden pot, the singing voices of the towers were soft, and the green sleeves held the jade bell with diligent support. Don’t sing the intoxicating scene of partridges to the spring breeze.
But her performance was not very good. She turned the wrong direction several times. Yun Xiu slapped her face, causing her steps to stagger, her body was too stiff, and her movements were slow. In the end, the judges still gave a high score of 9.8.
Next is the second contestant Zhang Huan. Her program is a white-haired girl selection. She danced a well-behaved Chinese ballet that was average and somewhat inappropriate, and finally got a high score of 9.7.
Finally, it was Xu Suhang, who aroused the audience's cheers as soon as he came on stage.
Xu Suhang was completely dressed up by Chang'e in the 86th edition of CCTV Journey to the West. He had a well-tailored long skirt, fluttering corners of his clothes, half-exposed breasts, two buns of his hair tied up high, and a shiny gem pendant on his forehead. The soft light hits his face from top to bottom. It was beautiful, sexy, noble, elegant, and even more extraordinary than Chang'e.
The 1986 version of CCTV Journey to the West carries many beautiful old memories of people born in the 1970s and 1980s. Her appearance and her amazing beauty won everyone's favor as soon as she appeared.
The Crab Committee and others sat on the left side of the audience, Chen Huayao smiled and applauded gracefully.
Lei Xin led his brothers to incite the audience's emotions, screaming loudly, and excited shouts pierced the eardrums. He took out a bouquet of flowers from under the chair and handed them to Chen Huayao, and said, "Brother, after Xu Suhang finished jumping, you will rush up to offer flowers. I will definitely be grateful to her. You will get what you want and win the hearts of the beauty."
Chen Huayao couldn't get out of the way and sneered: "When I picked up girls, you were still playing with mud, so I need you to teach me?"
"Haha, that's right, Brother Hua's flower masters are naturally unattainable." Lei Xin scratched her head and smiled, and felt a lot of complaints in her heart, "You're even the ones who sing and invite to drink in the private room are old chickens in their thirties. It would be strange if you can pick up girls!"
Xu Suhang kicked off with a self-written dance, and first made a rushing spun. The upper body maintained balance, and the lower skirt had been swept open, like a big umbrella, graceful and clever, and his graceful figure made the audience fascinated.
This dance is both classical and mixed with a lot of modern techniques. The two learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, just like drawing pictures of Tang Yin's ladies with hairpins in oil paintings, adding icing on the cake.
The two long and strong legs swung forward alternately, even if they were wearing dresses outside, they could reflect her perfect figure in golden proportions, which was fascinating.
Her dance was so beautiful that it made the audience scream endlessly, especially driven by more than a dozen young people who were energetic and had nowhere to vent, the sound was more than twice as big as the previous two contestants.
Even Shao Zhou in the judges' seat shook his head to the rhythm of the music, and gently hit the beat on the table with his fingers, obviously intoxicated.
After the performance, the five judges whispered and negotiated for a while in the audience. Director Shao Zhou seemed to have different opinions, but eventually surrendered and sat aside with his hands in his arms.
Finally, Lu Guomao, deputy general manager of Tianxiang Entertainment, took the microphone and said: "The third player performed well, reflecting his superb dance skills, and also impressed all the audiences present. However, the third player deliberately imitated the appearance of Chang'e in the 86th edition of CCTV Journey to the West. We believe that innovation is insufficient, which is a big flaw. Director Shao, what do you think?"
Shao Zhou said coldly: "There is only one word that can describe the No. 3 player, that is perfection. She is the best image of Chang'e in her mind."
Lu Guomao said: "But she still lacks innovation. The No. 3 player scored 9.5 points."
The lowest score among the three?
A huge boo immediately broke out in the audience.
If you want to say that there is insufficient innovation, the number one and two players imitate the famous play Partridge song. What is the White-haired Girl?
Besides, Xu Suhang only has similar costumes, his dance is all self-written, and there are too many innovative contents, so the score is obviously unfair. What's more, the role of a costume drama is worth "innovation"?
But the judges have made a final decision and naturally cannot be changed.
Lei Xin was angry and patted the armrests of the seat and shouted, and Chen Huayao was also surprised.
After a short rest, the second part began, mainly the judges asked questions to examine the contestants' understanding of the role of "Chang'e".
Liang Hongyan said: "Chang'e has always been the most beautiful fairy recognized by the people. I think that playing Chang'e well must focus on her strong relationship with Marshal Tianpeng, her pursuit of happiness for Qianli Jiaqi, and her love triangle between Marshal Tianpeng and Jade Emperor. Her complex and subtle mood of loving and resenting the two lovers... Especially in the Antian meeting, Chang'e's solo dance was for the Jade Emperor and for Marshal Tianpeng, and in fact, it was even more to resist the oppression of the Queen Mother on her. This was a fierce declaration of a mistress to pursue true love."
Zhu Bajie role-player, famous actor Yang Shizhong, first applauded and praised: "Well said it, I personally think it should be given ten!"
The second contestant Zhang Huan explained the lonely description of Chang'e in the novel, believing that playing Chang'e should focus on revealing her lonely side, and also won the approval of most judges and gave her a score of 9.8.
"Then the love-no. 3 contestant Xu Suhang." The host smiled at the camera.
Xu Suhang changed into a casual outfit, recovered from the previous blow, nodded and smiled at everyone.
Lu Guomao asked: "Xu Suhang, what do you think if you are selected, Chang'e should act?"
Xu Suhang calmed down and said: "Chang'e has existed in ancient books and legends since ancient times, and has appeared in poets' writings, and has been promoted in Journey to the West. Although she has appeared in Journey to the West for a few times, it has left a deep impression on the audience. I personally think that one is that she is far away from the secular worldly cold temperament, and the other is that the good image she created in the legend has generally won people's favor. Third, the emotional entanglement with Marshal Tianpeng has contributed to the plot."
"I think your cognition is biased." Lu Guomao interrupted her and said: "How is Chang'e's temperament and image? It mainly depends on how to write the script. You can't just rely on legends and original works. 9 points!"
The audience was in a big uproar.
The number one player Liang Hongyan pointed out that Chang'e and Zhu Bajie and the Jade Emperor had a love triangle and promoted the third party, which seriously subverted the original work and destroyed the public's aesthetic view, but instead gave it ten.
Xu Suhang's answer is perfect, his cognition is clear, and his organization is clear, so he will give him nine points?
What the hell is this?
Is it because you are not filming a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, but a love scene between Chang'e and two men?
Lu Guomao smiled and said, "Everyone is calm. Liang Hongyan's views are very bold and novel. This is the charm of a play, and it is very appropriate to give her. And the views of Xu Suhang players are too moderate. Our scoring is reasonable! It can stand the test!"
Shao Zhou took the speech and said, "I have reservations!"
The judges were so partial, which was a very obvious understatement operation. It was hard to say how many times there were unspoken rules. The audience called for a long time, but it didn't help but calmed down slowly.
Lei Xin saw something wrong and whispered: "Brother, there seems to be an insider inside."
