"Sister Meng, I have to trouble you about this matter."
In the lounge, Cao Yanbin, the director of the CCTV variety show "Art Life", made tea and water for Meng Kaihui with a flattering look on his face. He was obviously almost forty years old, but he didn't look like a middle-aged man.
"Don't you, Director Huang, have a good relationship with Li Qing? I heard that your channel's "The King of Masked Singer" is hosted by Li Qing's company?"
Meng Kaihui sat on the sofa, put down the folder in her hand, frowned and said: "Besides, Li Qing and I are not familiar with each other. It's probably useless if you ask me."
Meng Kaihui had a look of rejection, but instead of letting Cao Yanbin retreat, he even got more serious. He grinned and said with a smile: "Hey, you are too humble. You are the one who was personally appointed on the Spring Festival Eve this year."
Director, who in the industry doesn't admire you now? Can Li Qing attend the Spring Festival Gala this time without your personal approval? You just need to make him agree to some conditions on this matter, it's really easy."
"That's not okay. Whether the work can pass the review or not is not decided by me alone. I can't make small adjustments for you just because of the convenience of my position."
Meng Kaihui didn't want to argue with Cao Yanbin anymore, so she picked up the folder in her hand, ignored Cao Yanbin's pleas, and walked out of the lounge.
Despite all kinds of attempts to stay, Meng Kaihui still couldn't be stopped from leaving. Cao Yanbin's face suddenly became unwilling, and he spat bitterly, "Bah, wasn't it just a Spring Festival Gala? How awesome are you!
"
Meng Kaihui walked in the corridor, her face full of helplessness.
I don’t know who leaked the news, saying that Li Qing’s song passed the Spring Festival Gala assessment.
There have just been such reports in the media. The channel directors and program directors in the CCTV building were like a hornet's nest. They all came to their offices and entrusted themselves to let Li Qing take over the programs of their channels.
notice.
At first, Meng Kaihui was wary of past friendships, so she smiled, nodded politely, and agreed to give it a try.
But when more and more people came, Meng Kaihui was immediately disturbed.
In the past two days, more than ten program directors came to the entire CCTV building.
Programs such as "Variety Show" and "Celebrity Conversation", please just forget about it. What do you think your children's channel is causing trouble with me?
In this busy situation, Meng Kaihui had no choice but to leave her office and hide in the lounge to avoid the limelight.
Who knew, I would actually meet Cao Yanbin, the director of "Artistic Life"!
I don't know if it was a coincidence or if it was because of his great supernatural powers. In short, Meng Kaihui was forced to leave again.
Although she is the director of this year's Spring Festival Gala, if you think about it, she is just a contracted director under CCTV. She may have richer qualifications, but overall, she has no identity with Cao Yanbin and others.
Both.
However, this year, her idea happened to be rather unique and in line with the main theme, so she was recognized by the leaders of CCTV's literary and art department and the station leaders, and she stood out from the five candidate directors to direct this year's Spring Festival Gala.
But since becoming the director of the Spring Festival Gala, Meng Kaihui has been under a lot of pressure.
Although her status has increased as a result, and her power has become even greater, she still needs to consider all aspects when choosing programs, and she can't just take into account her own ideas.
Now, October has just entered, and there is still a long time before the Spring Festival Gala, but she must try to select all the programs before New Year's Day. The remaining one or two months are the program rehearsal time.
In terms of time, it seems to be very abundant, but if you want to meet people with choice phobia, no matter how much time you have, it may not be enough.
It just so happens that Meng Kaihui has such a phobia of choice.
The so-called phobia of choice does not mean that she has no independent opinions, but that she encounters a very troublesome problem when it comes to choosing some programs.
For example, in terms of songs.
"For Whom" was hand-picked by the stage director, and its singer Li Qing must appear on stage.
"In Spring" was an application letter submitted by Li Qing personally. She fell in love with it the first time she listened to it.
This song is very popular now. Almost everyone is singing it in the streets and alleys. It is almost a phenomenal song. This has further strengthened Meng Kaihui’s idea that "In Spring" must be included in the Spring Festival Gala.
But two days ago, the cultural troupe also submitted a song. This song is called "Staying Together" and it is a chorus song.
The civil service corps must be given face, and the song "Staying Together" is indeed a good song. But when Meng Kaihui saw the creator of this song, she was immediately dumbfounded. Is it Li Qing again?
If we add this song, it means that this year, three of Li Qing’s works will be featured in the Spring Festival Gala!
If it were placed in previous years, Meng Kaihui definitely felt that there was something shady about this Spring Festival Gala.
It is already the limit for an artist to have two works on the Spring Festival Gala, but Li Qing actually has three!
Do you want to set a precedent for all previous Spring Festival Galas?
Or should we remove the song "In Spring"?
From that day on, this question seemed to be lingering in Meng Kaihui's mind. Even when she dreamed at night, the word Li Qing would flash through her dreams...
It's probably a demonic disorder.
So, today, Meng Kaihui decided to meet this Li Qing and find a reason to convince herself to let Li Qing perform three songs in succession on the Spring Festival Gala.
When Li Qing arrived at the CCTV building, there was already a female staff member waiting in front of the door.
After seeing the Mercedes-Benz driven by Li Qing, he quickly asked the guard to open the electronic fence.
Parking the car in the garage, Li Qing got out of the car and saw the female staff member walking up to her. She smiled sweetly and said, "I am Director Meng's assistant. My name is Qi Lian. You can just call me Xiao Qi."
Qi Lian has slightly fluffy short hair and wears a straight suit. She looks very formal and has the style of a female elite.
"Hello."
Li Qing shook hands with Qi Lian, and they walked into the CCTV office building while chatting and laughing.
"Mr. Li, your name has been very popular recently. Speaking of which, our Director Meng has been in a lot of trouble because of you."
While waiting for the elevator, Qi Lian said with a smile.
Li Qing asked curiously: "How to say?"
"There are many program directors on our station who want to invite you to their programs, but I heard that you have been very busy recently because of the release of a new album and have no time to deal with them, so these people asked us to come to Director Meng.
Already."
Seeing Li Qing's surprised look, Qi Lian smiled slightly and explained: "You may not know something, but there is news everywhere in our station that you are going to attend the Spring Festival Gala..."
When Li Qing heard this, he suddenly became thoughtful.
There is news everywhere that you are going to attend the Spring Festival Gala?
This is interesting.
As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire. Could it be that the song "In Spring" that you submitted has a great chance of winning on the shortlist of competing songs?——
Thanks to the huge reward for fluttering big pants, thanks to the e-sports male god Caribbean, and the reward for spending a long time with silly girls. There is still another chapter (to be continued.)
