In 2001, the Spring Festival Gala was still at its peak, with no fewer than hundreds of millions of people watching the Spring Festival Gala in China’s land of more than 9.6 million square kilometers, and even among overseas Chinese around the world.

Although most of them come for language programs, Cao Xuan is one of the few singers who can grab ratings from language programs.

Especially the younger generation of viewers, many of whom are fans of Cao Xuan, are directly focused on Cao Xuan's programs.

When the cast of Cao Xuan was announced, countless people sitting in front of the TV began to call their friends and call them mom and dad.

"Come on, come on, Cao Xuan is out."

"Ah ah ah, look."

"Really been waiting."

"Is "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" talking about myself?"

"The stars are shining, the brightest star, why did you have sex with the star this year?"

"My brother is the best, my brother is the brightest star."

"..."

Cao Xuan, who was on the Spring Festival Gala stage, didn't know the reaction of the audience in front of the TV. He held a microphone and wore a very simple light gray jacket, jeans, and a pair of white sneakers.

This is Cao Xuan's own clothes, sponsored by the Seven Wolves, but the brand has been taken down and there is no trademark on it.

On the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, the costumes and makeup are actually relatively exaggerated and gorgeous.

Many singers' clothes are very "flamboyant", especially since the mainland's aesthetics have not yet developed, and I don't think they will look very tacky in two years.

For example, the International Chapter wore a bright yellow vest-like outfit this spring evening with bare arms and a pair of white trousers.

I can’t say it’s ugly, but I can’t say it’s beautiful, so I just look youthful and beautiful.

Cao Xuan attended the Spring Festival Gala three times. Except for the first time, he listened to the arrangements honestly. The other two times, he found his own stylist and then discussed it with the Spring Festival Gala program team.

Even if it was the first time, Cao Xuan also made suggestions and imitated the original Liu Tianwang and came up with an embroidered gown.

"Gong Xi Fa Cai" is a happy song, the singing style is cheerful, and the costumes are closer to the Chinese tradition. It is appropriate to cup your hands to wish you good luck.

The style of the song "Yellow Race" is relatively passionate, and the clothes should match it. The black trench coat is open, with silver accessories hanging around the neck, sequins are attached to the pants and leather shoes, and the hairstyle is also made more unruly.

As for today's song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", although the singing style is slightly rock-oriented, the overall style is actually somewhat restrained, and it is a song that carries dreams.

For a song like this, Cao Xuan didn't have any fancy costumes or backup dancers. It was simple and sung by one person, which was the most suitable for the song.

This year's Spring Festival Gala includes real singing and lip-synching. As one of the most important singing and dancing programs, the director team did not dare to gamble on Cao Xuan, so it had to be dealt with.

Cao Xuan also understands this approach, but on the stage, he really sings.

As the band's prelude ended, Cao Xuan spoke softly, and his deep voice filled the audience.

“Can you hear clearly the brightest star in the night sky?

The loneliness and sigh in the heart of those who look up

Oh~

Can you remember the brightest star in the night sky?

The figure that once walked with me and disappeared into the wind

…”

Many people just saw the song title and thought that this song corresponded to Cao Xuan's "Bright Stars", similar to Cao Xuan's emotion after becoming king and dominating.

When I actually listened to the song, I found that the result was different. This song is actually an inspirational song.

At least, judging from the original meaning of the lyrics, although the protagonist in the song is in pain, he can still persist in his obsession and strive to find the brightest star in his heart, which also guides him and illuminates his future.

OK.

As for the deeper meaning behind it and what metaphors people hear in the song, that is the understanding of each Chinese class representative.

The first part of the song is not very intense.

The quiet melody and the ethereal and low singing voice may not be intense, but like a bard, they slowly convey the story to your ears.

Many people felt a feeling of loneliness and confusion during the singing. The stage also matched the singing, and the lights were dim, but Cao Xuan's body was illuminated by two beams of light.

After the low and quiet early part of the song, when it came to the chorus, Cao Xuan raised his voice and sang loudly, as if praying and expecting.

"I pray to have a transparent heart

and eyes that shed tears

Give me the courage to believe again

Oh~

Go beyond the lies to embrace you

…

Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence

Whenever I'm lost in the night

Oh~

the brightest star in the night sky

Please guide me to you

…”

Everyone will experience their own troughs and darkness, but there is always a ray of light that will always illuminate your way forward.

Life will have setbacks, but it will never abandon you!

The biggest reason why the song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" resonates with countless people is that it tells everyone that there is still light in the cruelty.

Move forward fearlessly towards the brightest star!

Maybe ordinary fans don't have deep feelings about this, but people who are at a low point in life or have experienced a low point in life will always feel emotional when they hear this song.

Inspiring, inspiring and positive energy!

This is one of the many classic songs in "Bright Stars", and the Spring Festival Gala program team still bet on Cao Xuan's new song.

On the one hand, the signature of Cao Xuan’s new song + Spring Festival Gala is loud and guaranteed to be a selling point, and on the other hand, “The Brightest Star in the Night Sky” is indeed suitable for the Spring Festival Gala stage.

Facts have proved that the Spring Festival Gala program team made the right bet. This song's emotional appeal and stage performance are definitely among the best.

Compared with the previous "Gong Xi Fa Cai" and "Yellow Race", the Spring Festival Gala of the same year is definitely one of the best singing and dancing programs.

It is no exaggeration to say that Cao Xuan's performance on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala was a red-eye, not to mention the audience in front of the TV. If you feel the same way, you will really be unable to hold back your tears.

“Can you hear clearly the brightest star in the night sky?

The loneliness and sigh in the heart of those who look up..."

When Cao Xuan ended gently, the song ended and the audience spontaneously applauded.

The TV audience may not realize it, but people at the scene clearly feel that this is the loudest applause so far in this Spring Festival Gala.

Many elderly people who attended the Spring Festival Gala saw this and instantly knew in their hearts that Cao Xuan would definitely have a place among the regular guests of the Spring Festival Gala in the future.

Although Cao Xuan attended the Spring Festival Gala three times, in fact, a large part of it is because he is currently very popular. Once his popularity declines in the future, he will probably be excluded from the Spring Festival Gala.

But things are different now. Cao Xuan has come up with a major magic weapon besides popularity, which is the extremely high quality of his works.

One time can be said to be accidental, two times can be said to be lucky, and three consecutive times the quality has been excellent. This can no longer be explained by accidents and other reasons.

Cao Xuan's program not only conquered the audience of the Spring Festival Gala, but also the CCTV behind the scenes.

Like Zhao Benshan, Huang Hong and others, Cao Xuan has completely established his own brand in the Spring Festival Gala, and has his own reputation and fixed audience in the Spring Festival Gala.

Even if Cao Xuan is not as popular in the future, relying on the capital of these three classic programs, as long as the quality of the programs is acceptable, it will be easy for him to attend the Spring Festival Gala.

In other words, Cao Xuan is already one of the "familiar faces" that attracts ratings in the Spring Festival Gala.

In fact, this statement has actually begun to be discussed in the media, but the Spring Festival Gala may not be recognized internally.

But now, those who are expected to compete for the next Spring Festival Gala director have put Cao Xuan on the must-see list...

………

From these people's reactions, Cao Xuan and Cong learned that this year's show was coming to an end. Just after finishing the performance at early nine o'clock, he said hello to the director in charge and went home directly.

There was little traffic on New Year's Eve, so Zhu Jiang speeded up a little and rushed back to Dashizuo Hutong from CCTV in ten minutes.

"I wish you could go back and help me to take good care of my uncle, aunt, sister-in-law and nephew."

"Okay, happy New Year, boss."

"Happy New Year."

After saying goodbye to Lao Zhu, Cao Xuan knocked on the door and went home. As soon as he entered the main room, his uncle and Li Xuejian took the lead in applauding.

"Xuanzi sang so well."

"Yes, this song is really nice."

"Brother, I cried when I heard it. Please sing it again."
