Weddings held in mid-to-late October are actually a bit hard to find.
Because the National Day holiday a few days ago is the peak period for weddings, many people choose to get married during those days.
However, there are also newcomers who do not want to follow the crowd, deliberately miss the small peak, choose an auspicious day, and come as early as possible to relatives and friends to bless themselves.
October 19, 2002, is a good day to get married, pray for blessings, and seek children. It is also a good day in this month. The most important thing is that it is a Saturday, which is convenient for weddings.
Fuyunlai Hotel is barely a three-star hotel. It specializes in catering banquets and has a certain level. The price is not particularly expensive.
It is the first choice for many middle-class families near Haidian, the capital, for weddings, birthday banquets, teacher appreciation, celebrations, full moon and other banquets.
The couple holding a wedding here today are both engaged in business, and their business is not big. They earn two to three hundred thousand a year, but they were considered wealthy in 2002.
Coincidentally, the groom's cousin works at Fanxing. After learning about the MV, he took the initiative to help his cousin sign up.
He also said that his cousin and future younger siblings are both fans of Cao Xuan. They sing karaoke at daily gatherings, and they often sing Cao Xuan's songs, and the effect is definitely impressive.
Thanks to this cousin's call, the Fanxing staff contacted the parents of the couple and quickly obtained approval.
Cao Xuan's popularity in China is not something that can't be guaranteed. He couldn't even invite such a big star to perform at his wedding. Now it's free, so there's no reason to refuse.
As for the MV shooting, by the way, it can also be on TV, so why not do it.
In order to achieve the best surprise effect, the wedding performance was kept secret and not many people knew about it.
Except for the parents of the couple who knew the situation from the person in charge of the wedding company and the hotel, the other participants only knew that there was a surprise performance, but they didn't know who it was.
As for the bride and groom and most of the guests, they didn’t even know about this part of the performance.
The filming of the MV is destined to be hidden from others. Cao Xuan is so famous that if friends and relatives present casually spread the word, reporters may have to find someone to interview him.
Cao Xuan doesn't care if this matter gets exposed. Anyway, the finished MV has to be finalized and edited. If it's revealed in advance, it might arouse people's curiosity and play a certain role in promoting the album.
As for whether other weddings will be prepared, this is actually not a big problem. As long as Cao Xuan shows up, it will be a surprise.
Besides, with so many newlyweds getting married across the country, who knows where Cao Xuan will go? The randomness is too great and not many people will be lucky.
The only difficulty is that in order not to leak the live footage and songs in advance, others cannot take videos during Cao Xuan's performance, and it is best not to take photos.
This point has been discussed with the parents of the bride and groom when discussing the wedding, and Cao Xuan’s team must be responsible for the relevant recording.
Of course, as compensation, Cao Xuan may sing another song or say some blessings after the performance. These sessions can be recorded by others as a souvenir.
Later, after the MV is released, Cao Xuan's photography team will also make videos of the performance and some behind-the-scenes videos, specially sent to the newcomers.
In short, Cao Xuan is very considerate, so that the newcomer will never suffer, and he will save face. In this way, others will naturally cooperate actively.
Live recording is not allowed. This matter will be difficult to manage in future generations. Everyone has a mobile phone, and you can't stop it even if you want.
But nowadays, few mobile phones have camera functions, and even those that shoot pictures look like mosaics.
At a wedding, except for the wedding team or the hired videographer, generally no one has the habit of bringing a camera.
Even if it is accidentally photographed, the picture and sound will inevitably be poor if someone is supervising the scene.
Moreover, with the current transmission speed of the Internet, Cao Xuan can use his connections on the Internet to suppress video streaming to the greatest extent at any time.
It’s not Cao Xuan’s fault. As the major shareholder and owner of Penguin and Box Games, Cao Xuan can be considered a big boss on the Internet.
I dare not say too much. Limiting the flow and blocking an illegal video is a matter of saying hello to the three major portals, Baidu and related forums.
Everything is prepared and nothing goes wrong.
On the wedding day, while the couple was having their wedding ceremony, Cao Xuan and others quietly sneaked into the back door of the hotel, and the photographer followed them to randomly take pictures, which would be cut into the main film or behind-the-scenes footage according to the situation.
As for the original scene of driving a convertible on the street in search of a wedding, we had to find scenes for reshoots later on.
With Cao Xuan's reputation, if he undisguisedly took a video in a convertible on the streets of the inner city of Beijing, it might attract the attention of the traffic department, and reporters would have to come over.
So I have to find an opportunity to take additional photos later, and take some additional shots of distant views or landmarks to indicate the location.
For example, in Beijing, you might go around Chang'an Avenue, in Magic City, you might pass by the Oriental Pearl Tower, in the United States, you might see the Statue of Liberty or Times Square, in Seoul, South Korea, you might take a picture of the Han River, or in Bangkok, Thailand, you might want to take a photo of Chinatown, and tell the audience that Cao Xuan is a global celebrity... and send you blessings.
As soon as he entered the back door, the groom's father and the hotel manager came over to greet him. The groom's father smiled from ear to ear when he saw the living Cao Xuan standing in front of him.
"Thank you for your hard work, sorry for bothering you."
"I want to thank you for helping me and feeling happy."
"You're too polite. You must stay when the meeting is over. I'll ask the children to toast together."
After chatting for a while, Cao Xuan and the others sneaked into the specially prepared lounge, while the others were responsible for preparing for the performance.
Just after the normal wedding process in the banquet hall was completed, and when the food was ready to be served as planned, a group of people appeared on the scene and quickly set up the stage.
The on-site layout is very simple, just set up a stand and surround it with red cloth. At this stage, the drum set and related musical instruments and speakers are moved in.
The series of actions lasted less than 10 minutes, but it left all guests present, especially the bride and groom, confused.
The bride turned to look at the groom, thinking it was some special project: "What's your arrangement?"
The groom was confused: "I don't know? Where is the wedding company? How did it happen?"
The two of them knew all the procedures, so they were particularly surprised by this unplanned event. The guests were actually fine, but mainly a little angry.
Why are there still projects, the wedding is not over yet, it’s already past 1 o’clock, can the party be started!!!
To be honest, except for a small number of close friends, most people attend weddings just to eat. They actually don't care about the love story of the bride and groom, and they rarely get involved in it. They just want to start serving the food quickly.
This is why you have to wait until the wedding process is completed before the wedding can start, otherwise everyone will go to eat and no one will care about the bride and groom.
It looked really shameful, and no one could be found to care about it. The groom was about to go in to see what was going on, but he was grabbed by someone. When he looked back, he saw his father with a smile on his face.
"Wait a minute, I have a surprise for you young couple."
"surprise?"
The bride and groom were a little hesitant, and the groom couldn't help but wonder when he saw his father's mysterious smile.
Is it possible that the old man wants to give me his family property in advance?
Or did my mother give birth to a younger brother?
Don’t let this bloody incident happen where I am actually my wife’s brother!?
If the groom's father knew that his son was thinking about him like this, he might pull out his septwolves belt, have a bloody wedding banquet, and kill each other...
………
While the groom and others were speculating in a commotion, the scene was set up, and Cao Xuan and others took their musical instruments and sneaked into the shelf surrounded by red cloth.
It was the first time to do something like this. Everyone, including Cao Xuan, was a little novel and excited, so everyone went to their places.
The bride and groom outside were also invited by the staff who received the news and were led to the stand. Two photographers who sneaked in in advance followed and took pictures.
As the bride and groom stood still, Cao Xuan and others also began to play the prelude. The sudden sound attracted the attention of everyone present.
Just when everyone was in shock, the red cloth hanging around the shelf suddenly fell down, revealing the whole thing inside.
A bearded Irish man was playing the drums gently, and next to him was a long-haired white man playing the electronic keyboard. Two Asian men were holding bass guitars, and in the middle was Cao Xuan, who was holding a microphone and waving to everyone.
"ah!!!!!"
The bride who was nearest reacted first, covering her mouth in disbelief, and pinching the groom crazily with her other hand.
The groom was pinched so much that he bared his teeth, but he couldn't stop the smile on his face: "It's Cao Xuan, my wife, it's Cao Xuan."
At this time, the guests who were a little further away also recognized Cao Xuan. As the number one person in the Chinese music scene, he has appeared on the Spring Festival Gala four times and is the leading actor in many hit dramas.
Cao Xuan could not guarantee that all the more than one billion people in the country would know him, but there were indeed a few who did not, so as soon as Cao Xuan showed up, there were screams one after another, and the entire banquet scene was in a state of excitement.
"Fuck!"
"Cao Xuan, is this Cao Xuan?"
"Mom, mom, Cao Xuan is alive."
"If someone pinches me, it's not a dream."
“It’s worth the trip!”
"..."
Except for those who had received the news in advance and were relatively stable, almost no one at the scene could remain calm, and everyone was deeply shocked.
The previous dissatisfaction due to the late start of the dinner has long been forgotten. You can eat at any time. Big stars are rare!
Because the reaction at the scene was too intense, in order to give everyone some time to recover emotionally, the band played the intro twice before Cao Xuan started singing.
"I'mhur baby, I'mbrokendown
Baby, I'm so hurt, I can't get up
Ineedrloving,loving
I need your love at this time, your love
Ineeditnow
Can't wait now
WhenI'mwithout temptation
whenever without you
I’m color thingweak
I become weak and weak
…”
Although most of the audience could not understand the English lyrics, everyone felt the cheerful and dynamic melody.
Cao Xuan, who has rich live performances, knows how to arouse the audience's emotions. His soulful and sweet singing and dynamic swings constantly enhance the atmosphere of the scene and provoke everyone to sway and dance.
Unlike abroad, people in China are relatively reserved and generally not too embarrassed to dance.
At this time, [Tiao] will take the lead. The cousin of Fanxing's employees and hotel staff who attended the wedding took the lead in starting to sway to the melody of the music.
The groom's father was also very awesome. Not only did he rock the dance himself, he also took the initiative to invite his relatives and friends to join him.
The most important thing is that the bride and groom are very open-minded. Cao Xuan waved his hands to indicate that they should get excited, and the two of them danced very cooperatively.
Although Cao Xuan now occupies the C position, the center of the wedding is still the bride and groom. When they move, the best man and bridesmaid also dance with them.
Especially the bridesmaids, each one's eyes were shining, and if it weren't for the large crowd, they would probably have pounced on me.
On the surface, Cao Xuan sang with ease, but in reality he was a little panicked. He was not afraid of the bridesmaid rushing towards him, which would have interrupted the performance.
He was afraid that the bride couldn't help but pounce on him. On the big day, he and the band might not be able to leave the hotel today...
Fortunately, although the bride looked excited when she saw Cao Xuan, she had not lost her mind yet.
The groom and bridesmaids were joined by a group of young people, which pushed the atmosphere to a climax. Coupled with Tuo's cooperation, more and more guests twisted their bodies to the melody and participated in the carnival.
"Suga
sweetheart
Yesplea color
That's all I'm begging you to do
Won't induceeandputitdownonme
Can you give me that sweet love?
…”
During the carnival of the whole audience, Cao Xuan sang the climax of the chorus with a high-pitched voice and a sultry falsetto, which once again boosted the atmosphere of the scene. Everyone danced happily and fell completely into the atmosphere of celebration.
"Kiss the bride and groom."
Taking advantage of the interlude of the song, Cao Xuan pointed at the bride and groom and shouted, and raised his hand to signal everyone to cheer. The guests cooperated and watched the bride and groom shout along with Cao Xuan.
"Kiss the bride and groom!"
"Kiss me!"
The groom was a little embarrassed, but the bride was more aggressive. She turned around, held her husband's face, and hit him directly. Everyone cheered and screamed. Cao Xuan, who was singing, couldn't help but give the bride a thumbs up.
The moving melody always comes to an end. After the song was sung, Cao Xuan looked at the bride and groom with a smile.
"I present this song "Sugay" to wish Mr. Zhuang Dalei and Ms. Chen Ya a happy wedding and a long life together."
The guests at the scene applauded one after another. When the bride took the microphone from the emcee, she couldn't help crying and thanked her incoherently.
"Thank you. I am your fan. I have listened to all your songs and bought your album. I am very happy that you can come and sing such beautiful songs. Thank you. I am so happy. Thank you."
After saying that, the bride rushed over and hugged Cao Xuan. Everyone can understand her excitement.
It would be hard to keep calm even if your favorite celebrity could perform a blessing performance for you at your wedding.
But in order to ensure safety, Cao Xuan quickly hugged the groom again to distance himself.
There is no way, the reputation of Cao Daguan is too bad, so in order to avoid misunderstanding, we should be more careful.
The bride and groom expressed their thoughts, and Cao Xuan also sent his blessings. Faced with the couple's constant efforts to persuade them to stay, Cao Xuan stayed and toasted a glass of wine, had a simple meal and then left.
There is no way, he is too busy here, not to mention the bride and groom, no one cares about them, even the big elbows on the table are all crowded here, so they can only go first.
After Cao Xuan left, the center of the topic was still him, but the bride and groom and their families also got some attention.
Especially the groom's father and the cousin. When they learned that they planned this incident, everyone expressed their admiration and asked if there was a way for Cao Xuan to perform at other weddings.
It's so honorable to be a supporting singer at the wedding of an international superstar!
If you can really invite her, those who are in love should get married as soon as possible. If that doesn't work, go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get divorced and get a second marriage. It's worth it.
During the wedding banquet, everyone had a lot to talk about, and the groom's family was especially proud.
After the wedding banquet was over and the guests had not dispersed, the groom went to pay for the wedding banquet and came back in a daze after a while.
The groom's father, who was bragging to the guests, saw something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I went to check out, and the hotel manager said that Cao Xuan had paid for our wedding banquet, and said it was for Chen Yasui and I."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone was speechless. After a moment's pause, the groom's father spoke with emotion.
"The performance is free, and a wedding banquet is included. Son, you are not an idol in vain. You are so particular."
On the other side, Cao Xuan, who was leaving in the car, muttered to himself that he had agreed to have a meal together, but ended up booking the wedding banquet, and he didn't know who was paying for whom.
But cheating is just a joke. As mentioned before, you can also be happy in addition to performing.
With his net worth, this little money is nothing. If word spreads in the future, it might even have the effect of solidifying fans...
