Chapter 8 How about riding a dragon on the Spring Festival Gala!
When twenty-one carefully selected "special dancers" arrived at the CCTV studio, Li Mingrui's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity.
Lu Yuan really wants to do this!
Although Yang Ping's words in the media undoubtedly created a huge gimmick for the Spring Festival Gala, Li Mingrui still felt a trace of worry in his heart from time to time.
after all……
This is the first time this special dancer has participated in the Spring Festival Gala.
If Li Mingrui was in charge of this Spring Festival Gala, Li Mingrui would still play it safe and would definitely reject these people.
It's not that he has a heart of stone...
But he doesn't like taking risks.
If anything goes wrong for these people on stage, it's not just a performance mistake!
A program watched by more than one billion people!
Any mistake is a major mistake!
Of course, although he wanted to persuade Lu Yuan to be a little more stable and consider the impact more, he finally chose to give up.
What can he do?
The chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala is Lu Yuan. At best, he is just a deputy director...
Moreover, looking at Lu Yuan's appearance, he also knew that he could not persuade him.
He just needs to finish the work that the assistant director should do honestly. Whether the Spring Festival Gala is good or bad has nothing to do with him, right?
But he wanted to be his assistant director honestly.
but……
"Director Li, I will leave it to you to arrange this show..."
"..."
"Director Li, you are more experienced in this area, please help me more..."
"..."
"Director Li, what should the lighting assistant director over there do? Can I design it like this? Director Li, how about you help me?"
"..."
"Director Li, I know these are not the duties of an assistant director. However, Director Li, you should understand that this is my first time directing the Spring Festival Gala and I have no experience. All I can do is put out the programs that I can.
Besides, I don’t have any other options, right?”
"..."
"Director Li, thank you for your hard work. By the way, I have prepared some more deer whip for you. If you think it is not enough, I also have some good things here that can replenish energy and nourish the kidneys. Well, you can have as much as you want, as long as it's enough!
"
"..."
When Lu Yuan looked at Li Mingrui with a naive expression and the corners of his mouth curved, Li Mingrui realized that he had fallen into a trap.
And it's a big pit that you can't climb out of no matter how hard you climb.
He shouldn't have agreed to help Lu Yuan become the assistant director!
Um……
Although he has the title of assistant director!
but……
All the messy work of the chief director is done by him, Li Mingrui!
Moreover, you can just say that Lu Yuan cheated him. After all, it was quite hard to watch Lu Yuan running in and out every day to help plan the show.
But why are you giving him this whip and that whip every now and then these three days?
Is this trying to kill him?
and……
Does he have any use for this thing?
He is still going strong and strong, not yet old enough to turn into a soft banana, okay?
………………………………
Actually...
Basically everyone in the Spring Festival Gala program has a strange view of these "special dancers".
Everyone thought it was strange.
At the same time they are also very curious.
I wonder what kind of program Lu Yuan will put on for them.
However, it is a pity that they only saw this group of people walking into the dance practice room, but no one knew what they were performing inside...
They only know the name "Thousand-Hand Guanyin".
Other than that, the whole process has been kept secret. Even some other program planners of the Spring Festival Gala have no idea what form "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" will appear...
What's even more exaggerated is that it wasn't enough that they knew nothing about it. Lu Yuan even asked them to sign a confidentiality agreement.
In particular, the series of words "Special Dancer Deaf-mute "Thousand-Hand Guanyin"" are not allowed to be publicized in any form in the public media...
Do all this have to be kept secret?
So, over time this made them even more curious.
As time passed and they watched this group of "special dancers" coming and going, their curiosity became even stronger.
Finally, someone couldn't help but ask the assistant director Li Mingrui. They hoped that Li Mingrui could reveal more or less the situation inside.
"I don't know either. These things are not under my control..."
"..."
"..."
Um?
Even the assistant director doesn’t know?
What is this for?
How exciting is this show?
………………………………
The program "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" must be kept secret.
As for the words "special dancers", they must also be kept secret.
Chen Liangang and these young people don’t want these things to become the selling points of the show!
No reason, no excuse.
On the same stage, what really wins respect and applause is never misfortune and sympathy, but always wonderful performances.
Lu Yuan understands their psychology very well.
This mentality itself is something worthy of respect.
Therefore, Lu Yuan will personally walk into the rehearsal site of "Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara" whenever he has time, and do his best to help these young people do what he can to improve the program "Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara".
The young people looked at the Spring Festival Gala director who was busy doing business like Chairman Chen Liangang and Chen, and everyone's eyes were wet...
They were very moved.
Some things are mutual, they are moved, and coupled with a determination to prove themselves, the progress of "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" is even faster than Lu Yuan imagined!
It only took a week for "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" to start to look decent. As long as he works hard for a while, Lu Yuan believes that "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" can be mastered.
Lu Yuan was very pleased.
but……
Lu Yuan was not idle or relieved.
Although so far, all the programs of the Spring Festival Gala have been basically confirmed, and all aspects of the busy work have been taken over by the "good old man" Li Mingrui, Lu Yuan is still thinking about things like the opening special effects and the ending special effects of the Spring Festival Gala.
During last year's Spring Festival Gala, Yilong shocked the scene.
This year is the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Snake.
The Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Snake is naturally different from the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Dragon. At least the momentum of the Year of the Snake cannot be weaker than that of the Year of the Dragon.
Snakes and dragons…
How to convert in between?
Lu Yuan carefully thought about the various reasons for this special effect...
Only after all aspects of the special effects are resolved can Lu Yuan feel completely relieved about this Spring Festival Gala.
……………………
"Brother Liu, what do you think of this year's special effects? Do you have any good ideas?"
"Mr. Lu, can I see the process and template of the Spring Festival Gala?"
"The process and templates are in your mailbox..."
"Oh oh oh, I'm going to take a look now..."
"Brother Liu, have you not slept for a few days? Why are the dark circles under your eyes so serious?"
"I stayed up all night last night. It's not a big problem. We often stay up all night. We'll catch up on some sleep later."
"You'd better pay attention to your health. There are many cases of sudden death among young people nowadays!"
"Mr. Lu, I understand. I will go to bed after reading the plan..."
"You go to bed now!"
"ah?"
"Now, immediately, immediately!"
"this……"
"go!"
"All right."
In Industrial Denmo Huaxia Company.
Lu Yuan knocked on Liu Chen's office.
He originally wanted to talk to Liu Chen about the special effects of the Spring Festival Gala. He wanted to see what Liu Chen thought about it, but before he could say a few words, he saw Liu Chen's disheveled hair and dark circles and bloodshot eyes.
, he was frightened...
Liu Chen looked very haggard.
As Industrial Electric Demon becomes more and more famous in the world, there are more and more orders for them to do programs. Basically, most of the special effects for Chinese movies are contracted by Industrial Electric Demon. There are also many orders from Hollywood.
Come directly to your door.
Liu Chen is very busy!
Although the entire company has expanded to about 200 people and has about a hundred interns, the company is still very busy with various tasks. As the head of the entire company, Liu Chen is not immune to it. He is so busy.
The frequency of staying up all night is almost a daily occurrence, so don’t do it too much...
Lu Yuan was really afraid that Liu Chen would die suddenly and belch in an instant!
That would be such a big crime that he didn't even dare to give Liu Chen the special effects for the Spring Festival Gala.
After seeing Lu Yuan's very serious expression, Liu Chen finally gave in, obediently put down what he was doing, hesitated, and walked towards the lounge next to the office.
but……
Liu Chen just left the office and rushed in again not even half an hour later, staring at Lu Yuan excitedly with red and bloodshot eyes.
"Mr. Lu! Mr. Lu!"
"Brother Liu, why are you..."
"I know how to do it. Last year was the Year of the Dragon, so we made a dragon. This year's Spring Festival Gala is the Year of the Snake, so we made a snake! As soon as I lay down, I dreamed of a snake! A big snake!"
"Snake?" Lu Yuan was stunned.
"Yes, snake! Mr. Lu, python, python! There are stories of pythons turning into snakes in Chinese legends from ancient times to the present. I just watched your Spring Festival Gala process, and I suddenly realized one thing, that is, the Spring Festival Gala process.
Spring Festival Gala process!”
"Spring Festival Gala process?" Lu Yuan looked at the extremely excited Liu Chen and was immediately confused. He didn't understand it at all.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, can we do this at the beginning? Make a special effect of a python, and the python swims in the river. This special effect may not be as shocking as the sudden appearance of the dragon last year, but we can turn the python into a
Jackie Chan's process has become extremely shocking. Even after each program ends, the special effects of the transformation process can be added to this process at the moment when the prologue comes down..."
"You mean..."
"Yes! Mr. Lu, do you have no program for this year's Spring Festival Gala?"
"Um……"
"Do you have a song called Descendants of the Dragon?"
"right."
"Final appearance, Mr. Lu, what do you think of this? Adding a relatively grand finale. I calculated the time. If the song "Descendants of the Dragon" is inserted, it might be just right. At the same time, we can
…”
"I understand! Just do it!"
Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Liu Chen who was extremely excited.
He suddenly realized that Liu Chen was a damn planning genius.
If the transformation of the entire Spring Festival Gala, from a python to a five-clawed golden dragon in the sky, were really created with special effects, and then combined with the background of the lyrics in "Descendants of the Dragon", then...
Simply perfect!
"Mr. Lu...I'll start preparing the materials now!"
"Brother Liu, you need to rest!"
"Mr. Lu, it's okay. I'm still young. I don't have a big problem. Sudden death? There's no way I could die suddenly! I want to see with my own eyes that Industrial Denmagic has become the number one special effects company in the world. It's truly the number one in the world. How could I die suddenly?
"Liu Chen suddenly became even more excited, especially with his disheveled hair and red eyes, he looked extremely crazy...
"Brother Liu, are you...brainwashed?" Lu Yuan was frightened again.
I feel like Liu Chen is really like a crazy maniac.
"Ah? Mr. Lu, isn't this our dream from the beginning? You told me that! I remember you said that everything we do must be number one in the world!"
"I never said..."
"By the way, Mr. Lu, I suddenly remembered! Your appearance, I suddenly thought, you can appear riding a dragon transformed from a snake and singing while appearing. What do you think?"
Liu Chen seemed to have not heard Lu Yuan's words at all, and continued to stare at Lu Yuan excitedly, the light in his eyes becoming more and more intense.
"..." Lu Yuan suddenly didn't know what to say.
This guy...
It's like taking some kind of drug...
I am more excited than myself, the chief director.
He was really worried about Liu Chen's sudden death...
