Chapter 310 Cross talk old couple and the movie 'Jigong Biography'
dong dong dong
Shen Teng knocked on Zuo Le's door. After a while, Zuo Le, wearing slippers and big pants, opened the door and gnawed on an apple. Shen Teng hurriedly entered the room.
Although he is the sponsor and director of the crew, Zuo Le does not do anything special. His housing treatment is similar to that of other main creators of the crew, and they are all hotel business rooms.
Even because Zuo Le likes to be quiet, his room is located in the corner and is even slightly smaller than Shen Teng's room.
Sometimes the crew will have a short meeting after finishing filming for the day to discuss how to solve a certain problem that arose today, or discuss the shooting plan for tomorrow and the day after.
Meetings were usually held in Zuo Le's room. As the male protagonist and assistant director, Shen Teng was a frequent visitor to meetings and was no stranger to Zuo Le. He walked in and found a sofa to sit down directly.
The TV in Zuo Le's room was turned on, and a cross talk was playing.
A fat little black guy with a sweet heart and a fat white guy with a permed head, wearing big coats, were having a heated argument about whether the fat white guy's father's surname was Yu, and whether his profession was a Heding red connoisseur or a black flag cuckold king.
Shen Teng was naturally no stranger to these two leading figures in the cross talk industry. He himself had listened to their cross talks often, but he didn't know that Zuo Le was also interested in them.
This is an old man who is not very familiar with Shen Teng and Zuo Le, and is familiar with Shanhe and Zuo Le. Basically, they all know that Zuo Le likes to listen to the cross talk between these two people.
Even Zuo Le and teacher Yu Jian, one of the two, are still friends. Teacher Yu Jian also made guest appearances in the two sitcoms "Family with Children" and "Story of College Students".
I also know Zuo Le, the leader of Guo Group, but they are not very familiar with each other due to his personality. However, every time De Feng Club comes to Quancheng for a business performance, the two of them will say hello to Zuo Le.
Zuo Le called this a small talk between friends, but some good-hearted people called it a visit to the dock.
It’s not wrong to say this. Leader Guo’s work has always been like that of an old-time artist. In the old days, when artists went to the pier, they would pay homage to the local gangsters.
When it comes to the entertainment industry alone, Zuo Le is the biggest local snake in Dongshan...
Of course, it's not that exaggerated. In fact, in Zuo Le's opinion, this is just a notification among friends.
It's similar to when a friend comes to your city, talks to you, and politely invites you to hang out. You can do whatever you want. It's considered a friendly exchange.
Besides, he wasn't the only one who was greeted by others, even several seniors in the Quancheng folk art industry, leader Guo, sometimes came to visit.
When it comes to worshiping the dock, this is considered worshiping the dock. There is a serious connection between master and disciple, and they belong to the same family.
One of Zuo Le and others do cross talk, and the other shoots TV. They can't compete with each other, so there is no dock to visit.
………
But today, when Zuo Le watched the cross talk between the old couple, it was really not just a whim. He heard about something.
"Have you seen the scarves? It just broke out that these two are attending the Spring Festival Gala for the second time this year."
Shen Teng really didn't know about this. He went to put on makeup when he got up in the morning. After a busy day of shooting, he had no time to gossip about the news. After listening to Zuo Le's words, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it.
This piece of news is easy to find, ranking second on the most searched list for scarves.
The content of the topic is also very simple. It is roughly that the CCTV Spring Festival Gala program team officially announced that the old couple will attend the Spring Festival Gala for the second time. Then the official collar of Defeng Society and several of Guo's disciples forwarded it, confirming the news.
Shen Teng also knew something about this year's Spring Festival Gala because of Song Changying: "I remember that class leader Guo and his apprentice Yue Fengpeng have already won a program. Do they want the master and apprentice to join forces to participate in the Spring Festival Gala? Then the other crosstalk talkers will have no chance of survival. "
The Spring Festival Gala programs are regulated, and generally there are about 7 to 8 language programs.
In the past two years, as the ratings have declined, the number has been increased. Last year, there were 9. I heard that there are 10 language programs planned for this year, setting a record in the history of the Spring Festival Gala.
However, due to the downturn in cross talk programs, there were only two cross talk shows in the past few years, one at the opening and one after midnight. Guo's disciple Yue Fengpeng has dominated the opening in recent years, and after midnight, he has become a rising star among mainstream crosstalk actors.
This time, if both the master and the apprentice take up all the two crosstalk quotas, then the mainstream crosstalk community will be embarrassed.
But after thinking about it, Shen Teng also knew that he was overthinking it. Although it was no longer popular, a skinny camel was bigger than a horse, so he would not be bullied into this.
There is a high probability that there will be three crosstalk shows in this year's Spring Festival Gala. The opening will remain unchanged in the early morning, and the program of the old couple will be arranged in the prime section. This is the best solution.
No wonder there are so many language programs this year...
Zuo Le didn't know that Shen Teng's thoughts were already diverted to the grievances between Defeng Society and the mainstream cross talk world. He was not interested in this, he was more concerned about it.
"Do you know why these two suddenly went to the Spring Festival Gala again?"
This is not the first time that Team Leader Guo has attended the Spring Festival Gala. Last time due to the restrictions of the Spring Festival Gala, the cross talk effect was mediocre and received considerable criticism. After that, the old couple never attended the Spring Festival Gala again.
Shen Teng was not a fool. He immediately thought of the recent news from De Feng Society and said flatly: "This is to build momentum for "The Biography of Jigong"."
"That's right."
Zuo Le nodded: "These two went to the Spring Festival Gala in person to promote it."
Although it is known as a concentration camp for bad movies, Team Leader Guo has never extinguished his desire to be an actress. This year, Defeng Society once again produced a movie, adapted from Lao Guo's stand-up comedy "The Legend of Jigong".
Lao Guo directed and acted himself, and many actors from the De Feng Club and many of Lao Guo's friends came to make guest appearances.
Now "The Legend of Jigong" has been completed, and like "Charlotte Trouble", it is scheduled to be released in the Lunar New Year next year.
In order to promote this movie, Lao Guo did not hesitate to take back his words that he would never attend the Spring Festival Gala again, and went on stage again to support "The Legend of Jigong".
Frankly speaking, although it competes in the same schedule, Zuo Le really doesn't take "The Legend of Jigong" seriously.
There is nothing to say about Guo's cross talk skills. Except for a few retired seniors, no one in the country can match him.
But let’s talk about directing skills…
It's not that Zuo Le is being disrespectful, he really feels that Lao Guo is not even a third-rate director. It's okay to shoot a single funny piece, but making a movie is really two different professions from talking about cross talk.
As the saying goes, there are specializations in the art industry. If someone casually crosses a field and crushes a group of professionals, the world will be in chaos.
The reality is not YY novels. There are only a few such all-around geniuses among 100 million people.
Zuo Le didn't care much about the movie "The Legend of Jigong", but he was quite interested in Leader Guo's propaganda methods. This was very similar to his previous thoughts, and it also gave Zuo Le confidence.
The Spring Festival Gala is indeed a good way to promote Lunar New Year movies!
Therefore, this time Zuo Le came to Shen Teng and wanted to discuss it with him and then put it into operation.
"Teng'er, do you want to go to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala?"
"..."
Shen Teng was a little confused at first, but then his face showed surprise: "You mean, it's the same as Defeng Society..."
If we hadn't talked about Lao Guo attending the Spring Festival Gala before, Shen Teng might still be a little confused. Now with this layer of foreshadowing, Shen Teng still couldn't see Zuo Le's plan, so he nodded sharply immediately.
When he refused to attend the Spring Festival Gala, apart from not being optimistic about Song Changying's script, the biggest reason was that he was afraid of delaying the filming and promotion of "Charlotte". Now that he can kill two birds with one stone, only a fool would push it.
However, Shen Teng is also a little worried. If he wants to appear on the Spring Festival Gala, he must have a good sketch script.
"Don't worry, I have already sent people to collect the notebooks. In addition, the screenwriting department has also started preparations. With both hands prepared, there will be absolutely no mistakes."
Zuo Le is still somewhat confident about this. There are few good screenwriters in China, but it is not impossible. If you are really willing to spend a lot of money, you can still get some good scripts.
In addition, the Shanhe Screenwriting Department is not just for free.
Don’t forget, Shanhe started out with sitcoms. To a certain extent, sitcoms are an extension of sketches. With this foundation, it’s no problem to keep a good book.
Zuo Le does not require that he can win a classic that has been handed down from generation to generation, as long as he excels. This level of requirements can still be achieved with Shanhe's capital.
After briefly explaining his plan, Zuo Le told Shen Teng that he would shoot Charlotte's scenes first and try to squeeze out as much time as possible for Shen Teng to rehearse the sketch.
If Shen Teng really shows up in the Spring Festival Gala, he will be considered to have made a great contribution to the promotion of "Charlotte Trouble"...
