Chapter 435 Spring Festival Gala Opening
Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng didn't come, nor did Xian Qiran or Lin Lingdong.
The people behind the scenes themselves don't like to join in the fun. The actors are here, including Andy Lau, Liang Jiahui, Zhong Chuhong, Qiu Shuzhen, etc., with obviously different painting styles, attracting the attention of the surroundings like giant pandas.
It’s not just about dressing up, it’s mainly about temperament.
Mainland actors have costumes sponsored by Chen Qi. They are all very beautiful, but at first glance they are still from Mainland China.
"Is this the table?"
"Yes, table 12!"
Father Gong, Mother Gong and Gong Ying came and found family seats at the back. Family members should not be too conspicuous. Gong Ying looked around, saw the elder sister, and waved quickly.
Gong Xue responded, then hurriedly looked for Chen Qi and led him over.
"Hello, uncle and aunt!"
"Xiao Chen, we meet again!"
"It's okay for you, it's okay for you!"
My parents got up quickly. Fortunately, they had eaten before, so it was not too embarrassing. They chatted for a few words and left in a hurry.
After a while, Chen Jianjun and Yu Xiuli also came.
They didn't recognize Gong's father and Gong's mother, they were just looking for their son. This time Chen Qi led Gong Xue over. Gong Xue was nervous and a little shy: "Hello, uncle and aunt!"
"Hey, hello, hello!"
Chen Jianjun and Yu Xiuli also stood up quickly, and Gong Xue introduced again: "These are my father and mother!"
"Ouch!"
"Ouch!"
The four of them whispered at the same time and shook hands quickly, taking the unfamiliarity to the extreme. Gong Ying clapped the table in joy, and the two people hurriedly said a few words and went about their business again, leaving the parents of both sides staring.
Who would have thought that the first time we met was at the Spring Festival Gala?
The only advantage is that at least there is a common topic for communication, so it won't be too lonely.
…………
The reason why the 1983 Spring Festival Gala was groundbreaking is inseparable from the popularization of communication media: in 1979, the number of TV sets nationwide reached 4.85 million, and in 1982 it reached 27.61 million, increasing by several million every year.
There are also telephones. Last year, 22 coin-operated phone booths appeared in Beijing, and the number of telephone users nationwide exceeded 3 million.
Today seemed to go by very quickly, watching the sky turn dark.
Due to the previous publicity, everyone knew that the Spring Festival Gala was a big event, and many people were waiting to watch it on TV.
northeast.
Despite the ice and snow, everything is silent, but the living area of a large factory is bustling with activity.
Every house has red Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters on them, and the house is brightly lit. Families of five, six, seven, eight, or even a dozen people are getting together during the Spring Festival, playing cards, making noodles, eating melon seeds, and chatting. Children are running wild outside. Firecrackers crackled, and the strong smell of sulfur mixed with the smell of the New Year...
The Northeast is extremely powerful these days.
"Why isn't the TV on? Are you watching TV? Did you buy it as a decoration?"
"The party hasn't started yet!"
"Let's watch "Xinwen Lianbo" first. It's also a joy to listen to it."
Beijing.
The scene in the courtyard is similar.
Thanks to the current housing system, neighbors are very close to each other. Several younger employees went to the homes of older employees and said hehe, "Master, will you come to your house to watch TV later?"
"Have you made dumplings?"
"It's all wrapped up!"
"Stop talking, you bachelors can still make dumplings? Forget it, come over soon and let's eat together!"
Shanghai.
There are three families living in this Shikumen. In the public kitchen downstairs, an aunt is making eight-treasure rice. It is made of glutinous rice. Glutinous rice is not easy to steam and must be boiled in advance until it is eighty pieces of rice.
A man came in at the door and said with a smile: "Teacher Liu, are you waiting to watch the party?"
"Is there a party at Shanghai Taiwan?"
"It's not Shanghai TV, it's CCTV."
"The CCTV is not good-looking!"
"Hey, come on, come on, there are Yan Shunkai and Wei Zongwan!"
This kind of thing is happening all over the country, including Haizi.
Between the Forbidden City and Haizi, there is a long and narrow area, which is also a group of alleys, including Beichang Street, Xihuamen Street, etc. Many big leaders do not actually live in the Red Wall, but in alleys.
One of the courtyards, in the living room.
A big leader is also celebrating the New Year. He has three sons, a daughter, and grandchildren. The whole family is festive and lively. They are also making dumplings, watching TV, and having a good time.
"Today's "Xinwen Lianbo" program has been broadcast. Thank you for watching!"
"Today is the eve of the Lunar New Year. The Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television, and CCTV have organized a Spring Festival Gala, which will be broadcast on time at 8 o'clock. Welcome to watch!"
Then came Weather Forecast.
This is followed by a science and education program, and then a partial preview of the Spring Festival Gala.
I saw Ma Ji dressed in regular clothes, introducing the four phones on site, reminding the audience to order on-demand services - mainly those in the capital, and showing off the quiz prizes: mechanical pencils, notebooks, pencil cases, etc...
There are a total of five riddles, and the audience writes letters to guess, and if they guess all, they will win prizes.
Seeing 8 o'clock approaching.
Everyone thought it was about to start, but when the screen turned, a clock appeared, ticking down for 30 seconds. When the last 10 seconds passed, a human voice appeared, as if the cast and crew were counting down together:
"10, 9, 8..."
"Come here, it's coming, it's coming!"
"Stop making noise and let's get started!"
This countdown immediately brought a sense of ceremony, and countless viewers sat obediently in front of the TV.
The big boss's family was also curious.
"3, 2, 1!"
When the countdown ended, the animated figures based on the four hosts were seen playing and joking, setting off firecrackers, and flew into the sky with a bang, turning into four big characters "Happy New Year"!
Above the word "Spring", there was a cute little pig acting cute.
This year is the Year of the Pig...
The short film was only ten seconds long, not too long, and it was well-paced. It immediately cut into the studio, with a camera shooting down the entire venue. The scene was decorated with flowers and the music was jubilant and enthusiastic.
At this time, Western musical instruments were useless, and folk music had to be played!
Suona and gongs and drums were the trump cards!
Everyone was laughing and clapping, and several male dancers had already jumped up, waving golden ribbons in their hands, meaning the harvest of wheat ears. Immediately afterwards, several actresses dressed in fiery red came on stage with handkerchiefs and big fans.
The opening dance was all about atmosphere.
Although the stage was not big enough to accommodate too many people, at a time when the whole nation was eager for entertainment, there was still a blast of gongs and drums, firecrackers, and a joyous atmosphere!
I became happy unconsciously.
At the end of the dance, everyone followed the music and moved left and right. The four hosts, Zhao Zhongxiang, Gong Xue, Ma Ji, and Jiang Kun, appeared on stage.
The men were all in suits and Mao suits, looking calm and dignified. Gong Xue wore a very beautiful red skirt, with natural makeup, fashionable but not gaudy, delicate but not exaggerated. The four of them were all smiling:
"Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!"
Walked to the front of the stage and said the opening remarks:
"Dear audience friends! This is the live broadcast of the 1983 Spring Festival Gala!"
"At this time of family reunion and farewell to the old and welcoming the new, we wish the people of all ethnic groups in the country, our compatriots in Hong Kong and Macao, our compatriots in Taiwan, overseas Chinese and the Chinese people all over the world a happy Spring Festival. I wish you all a happy Spring Festival and all the best!!"
"Good!"
The big leader couldn't help but praise him, saying: "This opening is well said, quite broad-minded. The Spring Festival is a common festival for the Chinese people all over the world. It's hard for them to think of it!"
