Chapter 514 Happy New Year (3) (Daily update 12,000~)
There are fewer and fewer people who can perform in multiple programs in the Spring Festival Gala. This year's Spring Festival Gala has given this privilege to three people in total, Yang Liping who is performing, and the famous female singer Xu Xiaofeng of Xiangjiang Hall who will appear later, and Wanwan's
Female singer Pan Bibang.
The Spring Festival Gala has always been a comprehensive large-scale singing and dancing gala, so the programs presented must be diversified and must be taken into account for any viewing group.
So this is why, decades later, people complained that they wanted to innovate but also wanted to preserve tradition, but the result was that both sides were unhappy.
When I heard that Zhu Xian could dance, I immediately became interested: "Linlin, can you dance?"
Wu Jianye said from the side: "Of course, you don't know yet, but your daughter-in-law has been learning dance since she was a child, and her first job was as a dancer in the Yanjing Communications Corps Art Troupe."
Zhu Xian said a little shyly: "Mom, don't listen to his nonsense, I just dance around, I can't compare with the people on TV!"
The old lady said happily: "Mom, just look at you, you will definitely dance better than others."
"That's natural. Otherwise, why would a party preserve Zhu Jia's dance for such a long time!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
While the three of them were chatting and laughing, Xu Xiaofeng also came on stage.
Xu Xiaofeng is as majestic as ever, but her green scarf is a bit inconsistent, and her singing skills can be felt as soon as she opens her voice.
Wu Jianye thought it was nostalgic, Zhu Xian was more interested, but my mother felt that it was not interesting anymore. Seeing that her good grandson was already sleepy, she took Wu Nianyi out in the stroller.
Went to coax him to sleep.
Xu Xiaofeng's two consecutive songs, "Missing the Moon A Thousand Miles Away" and "State of Mind", both fit her identity as a Hong Kong singer very well.
Without my mother by their side, Wu Jianye and Zhu Xian stopped eating, put the red wine on the coffee table, and sat on the sofa to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Zhu Xian held Wu Jianye's arm, his face looked a little red under the light, obviously because he drank red wine.
"Her singing voice is so penetrating!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "This is something God has given me, and there is nothing I can do about it."
A singer's singing skills may be developed through acquired cultivation, but a singer's voice can only depend on God's blessings.
Singers like Xu Xiaofeng actually have various live performance experiences. In her era, when Xiangjiang wanted to be a singer, there were not so many record companies, and most of them sang in nightclubs. At that time, Xiangjiang wanted to be a singer.
The nightclubs are very popular and there are singers performing every day.
Each nightclub is like a live broadcast platform for later generations. Some people reward and some criticize them. Coupled with the general environment of that era in Xiangjiang, you know how difficult it is to survive.
Later, ATV also filmed a TV series with this theme "I Have a Date with Spring", which told the story of the nightclub singers of that era.
The singers who could become the most popular nightclub ace were also the most popular singers in Hong Kong at that time. It was not until the rise of Hong Kong's record industry that these talents found another way out.
Perhaps feeling a hint of coldness, Zhu Hao hugged Wu Jianye's arm tightly. Wu Jianye smiled, grabbed Zhu Hao's hand, and held it in his own.
Feng Gong and Niu Qun, the golden pair, also started their first collaboration on the Spring Festival Gala this year. Wu Jianye had already met Feng Gong and was introduced to her through Feng Pants.
Now Feng Gongke is much more famous than Feng Pants, but the relationship between the two has always been very good and they are quite good friends.
The cross talk they talked about was "Birthday Message", which was quite satisfactory and didn't have many surprises, but it was still able to make the audience laugh.
Wu Jianye could feel it from Zhu Xi's body.
Of the programs in this time period, the one Wu Jianye is most looking forward to is the skit "Lazy Guys Dating" by Baiyun Aunt Song Jueyuan. This is the first time that Song Jujuan has participated in the Spring Festival Gala. The Song Jujuan in this time and space is much more famous than the same period in another time and space. .
The early release of "I Love My Family" made Song Xuanji known to Chinese audiences in advance.
In later generations, people's impression of Song Xunxuan was more about the skit with Zhao Benshan, so Song Xuanxuan's acting skills were ignored. This also led to Song Xuanxuan being criticized for not being qualified when he participated in a variety show.
In fact, he started working as a drama actor at the Yanjing People's Art Theater in 1983. He was a real drama star. In 1984, he played the role of Ganoderma lucidum in the drama "Weddings and Events" and won the first prize of the Ministry of Culture's Observation Performance and the Yanjing Performing Arts Award. The city government commended the outstanding actor award.
Later, she played Song Xiaoli in the TV series "Finding the World Back" and won the Best Supporting Actress Award at the 6th China TV Feitian Award. When filming "I Love My Family" two years ago, she took the time to star in the movie "Crescent Moon" and won the 2016 Best Supporting Actress Award. Italian Silver Award at the 41st Salerno International Film Festival.
He is a real veteran drama actor, but in later generations, in the domestic film and television industry, there are no suitable scripts for actresses of their age. Most of them are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas with short-term parents, which do not give them any room to develop. .
However, this skit actually has some points to complain about. For example, as a girl on a blind date, Song Jueju mentioned the new four major items of color TV, sofa, refrigerator, and washing machine. If you are a person from a big city, there is no problem in saying this, but if you want to talk about rural areas This is the requirement now.
It is no different from the concept of having a house, a car, a job, and money in the city when rural children go on a blind date in later generations.
To be honest, this skit was originally intended to show the rapid development of the country, but it ended up creating a lot of difficulties for many rural people to get married.
"Isn't this a bit too much?" Zhu Xian also expressed his opinion.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "When your son gets married in the future, if you say that the woman wants these things from you, what will you do?"
Zhu Xian raised his head, looked at Wu Jianye, and said with a smile: "Don't he have a father?"
Wu Jianye laughed...
By the time Pan Bibang sang the song, my mother had already coaxed Wu Nian to sleep and put him on the crib in the living room. At twelve o'clock in the evening, even if Wu Nian did not set off firecrackers at night, he would be beaten by the people outside. I was woken up by the sound of firecrackers.
Putting them in the crib will help them take care of them, and at this time, my mother and Zhu Xi went to cook dumplings.
In fact, we can't eat much at this time, but we always have to follow the customs. This is a tradition passed down by our ancestors for hundreds of years.
Wu Jianye does not object to everyone advocating a new life, but some traditions are best followed.
The so-called festivals from abroad are mostly prepared for young friends, so they will be more easily spread, such as Christmas Eve, Christmas, and New Year's Day in later generations. These are actually prepared for young people.
.
These festivals are not for family reunions, but for hotel business to surge...
For example, if you eat apples on Christmas Eve, if you see your girlfriend holding an apple in her hand on the second day of Christmas Eve, congratulations, it’s green...
Wu Jianye once gave three apples as a gift on Christmas Eve... The next day, Wu Jianye stayed at home all day...
The dumplings were cooked quickly. Zhu Xian and his wife walked in with the dumplings, and Wu Jianye was also setting out the vinegar plate at this time. He didn't like to dip in soy sauce or vinegar with minced garlic, but he liked to put some chili oil in the vinegar.
and sesame oil.
After the dumplings were arranged, my mother served a plate of dumplings to Wu Jianye's cheap dad and lit incense.
"It's time to eat dumplings!" Wu Jianye said in a low voice.
"Aren't you sour?" Zhu Jia still can't stand Wu Jianye's habit of being jealous. Sometimes, Wu Jianye will even mix a little garlic and vinegar together when eating at home, and then add some more
Then add some soy sauce and boiling oil to the water, mix it together and drink it as a soup...
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Mr. Zhou Shuren once said: A true warrior dares to face dumplings without vinegar, and dares to face dumplings with only vinegar."
Zhu Xian smiled helplessly: "You just randomly changed what your family said."
Wu Jianye smiled, said nothing, picked up a dumpling, put it in the vinegar plate, stirred it, and put it in his mouth...
Bang!
"I'll go, you got the first dumpling with money, right?" Wu Jianye said helplessly, covering his cheek.
"Ha ha!"
My mother and Zhu Xian laughed, and it was rare to be the first one to eat, but this kind of thing could only happen to Wu Jianye.
Both my mother and Zhu Xian actually eat carefully and slowly, so things like chipped teeth will not happen to them.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao's "Pepper Noodles" also started performing. Seeing them on stage before the performance, Zhu Hao couldn't help but laugh.
"I remember that in 1985, Chen Peisi still had a layer of hair on his head, but now it's all gone," said Zhu Xie with a smile.
Wu Jianye joked: "He still has a hat on his head, how did you tell that?"
Zhu Xian rolled his eyes at Wu Jianye: "Nonsense, it's not like I didn't see him before when I was in Yanjing."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Xian asked again: "By the way, you are going to Berlin to attend the film festival this year. Are you unable to go to Mr. Chen's home to pay New Year's greetings?"
Since cooperating with "The Peacock Princess", Wu Jianye has been going to Chen Hao's home every year to pay New Year's greetings. Naturally, Zhu Hao knows these things.
Wu Jianye said: "I guess we don't have time. Let's wait until we get back to Berlin."
Zhu Xian asked: "Would you like me to go there for you?"
Wu Jianye thought of the relationship between Chen Wei and Li Xiuming, shook his head and said, "No, I'll just give Mr. Chen a call when I get back to Yanjing."
Not to mention Chen Hao this time, Wu Jianye couldn't let go of other relationships either. He could only make a phone call first and wait until he got back from Berlin to talk about it.
But at that time, I had to be busy checking out the filming situation of "The Legend of White Snake". This delay will probably be postponed until February.
Zhu Xian nodded and didn't think much about it.
The last program before the zero o'clock bell is "My Motherland" sung by Guo Lanying. After the singing, it is the New Year's countdown.
Unlike later Spring Festival Galas, the countdown this time was not read out by the host, but a picture of a Compass clock, and the voiceover was provided by Jiang Kun.
Although Combas watches sound like the name of a foreign company, they are actually a watch brand developed by Quancheng Watch Factory in Qilu Province. They are 100% Chinese. In the first year of production, "Compas" set a new record in 2018.
A record of 140,000 animals produced.
As for those born in the 1970s and 1980s, their memories of this brand come from CCTV’s prime time “Kangbas”. “Telling you the time” once became a household slogan, and “Kangbas” also became famous.
It rose to prominence and became synonymous with quartz clocks.
By the most glorious year of 1991, the annual output reached more than 2 million.
Except for the time in 1985 when Combas was stepped in by competitor Haiou and stole CCTV's countdown advertisements, from 1984 to 1993, all CCTV's zero o'clock countdowns belonged to Combas.
However, Combas watches also learned lessons from the wave of commercial development. Because of the background of that era, in 1979, the Qilu Branch of China Light Industrial Products Import and Export Company (later changed to Qilu Light Industrial Products Import and Export Company) had the right to operate exports.
), in order to facilitate the export of quartz clock products, the "Kangbas" trademark was successfully registered with the Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce. From then on, "Kangbas" became a "child" fostered in someone else's name.
As for the Quancheng Watch Factory that developed Compass, it only signed a 10-year contract with Qilu Branch for the exclusive use of the "Combas" trademark in 1984...
At exactly twelve o'clock, the sound of firecrackers sounded outside again, and Wu Nianyi woke up crying. My mother quickly went over to pick Wu Nianyi up and comfort him.
Wu Jianye originally wanted to go out and set off firecrackers, but he gave up after his mother glared at him.
However, he still put on his coat and walked out of the room. He rubbed his hands and looked through the wall to see the yellow light flashing from the firecrackers outside. From time to time, he could still hear the shouts of naughty children.
“It’s Chinese New Year, it’s Chinese New Year!”
The word "New Year" is always full of meaning for Chinese people. What children yearn for is to have new clothes to wear, delicious food to buy, and new toys at this time.
Regardless of whether they have made money this year or not, or what kind of life pressure they are facing outside, adults will do their best to meet all the requirements of their children on this day.
It is a pity that when children of this generation grow up and become the backbone of society, due to work or to accompany their own small families, going home to visit the elderly during the New Year has become a luxury for the elderly left behind...
....
89 years!
It has been almost ten years since I was reborn!
Wu Jianye looked back through the window with the word "Fu" on it and saw the scene in the room where his mother and Zhu Xian were coaxing Wu Nianyi. Then he looked back at the full moon in the sky.
He suddenly wanted to thank God for giving him a chance to be reborn!
