Chapter 68 Xia Tian went to the sea

The Spring Festival Gala begins at 2 pm on February 3rd.

The hosts of this year's Spring Festival Gala are Jin Ye, Sister Ni and Yang Lan.

The first program was a song medley, "Unforgettable Songs," with Li Guyi, Cheng Fangyuan, Jiang Dawei, Hang Tianqi, La Ying, Mao Amin, Sister P, and Xia Tian...

Laying is riding on Xia Tian's coattails, or rather, piggybacking on him. She almost tells everyone she's close to Xia Tian and even got a song from him!
Plus her teacher's relationship, she was able to appear on the Spring Festival Gala. That guy was so excited!
I asked my family to bring a lot of things from my hometown: mushrooms, fungus, deer antlers, potato vermicelli, frozen bean buns, etc., and gave Xiaoxu half a car of them.

The following programs were crosstalk by Hou Yaowen and Shi Fukuan, and skit by Huang Hong and Song Dandan - I didn't have much impression of this skit in the summer, it was average in effect.

Then there was Yang Liping's dance - this year she didn't follow Xia Tian anymore. I don't know if she heard the news in Hong Kong or if she calmed down and got over it.

This made Xia Tian feel relieved.

Jiang Kun's crosstalk, Song Tuan's songs...

Then there is the song "City Baggage" by island actress Hu Huizhong!
After recovering from an accidental burn while filming in Hong Kong, she gradually shifted her work focus to the mainland.

Look, it’s even on the Spring Festival Gala.

Then it's the main event!

Benshan and Huang Xiaojuan’s sketch - "I Want a Home"!
Benshan showed his excellent comedic talent for the first time, pretending to be an old lady on the Spring Festival Gala stage.
That was a lot of laughter, and it lasted for a long time. The acting was very profound and real. It was obvious that he had been around old ladies a lot.

Benshan also sang a few lines of the song - "I want to have a home, a place that doesn't need to be too big."

This song was released in 89 and has been popular for two years. It was used by Lao Zhao in a skit, so it can be considered an early meme!
Lao Zhao is very sensitive to comedy!

However, the "small" request in this song is still difficult to achieve even after thirty years.

Young people all leave their youth in big cities, and then sadly return to their hometowns to find a home...

Then there's Cai Guoqing's song "Towards the Olympics"—wasn't this about wanting to push for the Olympics after the Asian Games? But because the first bid for the Olympics failed, the song wasn't included in the Spring Festival Gala DVD.
Then there's Feng Gong and Niu Qun's crosstalk! These two work incredibly well together, and there's a chemistry there. It's even more effective than Feng Gong's later collaborations with other artists.

The show later even featured the Little Tigers from the island, as well as Teacher Liu. Xia Tian even saw Mao Ning—he probably hadn’t formed the golden boy and jade girl duo with Miss Yang yet…

Behind them are Li Erhe and Bai Ge...

There is also a song called "The Youth Always Resides in My Heart" sung by Liu Dehua, Zhang Yusheng and Mao Amin.

This sets a precedent for singers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong and Macau to sing the same song on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

However, Andy Lau from Hong Kong and Zhang Yusheng from the island were not present at the event.

It is said that the connection is remote, but whether the singing has been recorded in advance is unknown.
Then comes the summer song - "Great China"~
Yes, that's right. He thought of this song after singing the ending theme song of "The Story of Qianlong" in Hong Kong.
Because there is not much time for "Farewell My Concubine", and the Spring Festival Gala has now adopted a competition model, summer only signed up for such a program this year.

Just deal with it!

"We all have a home, many brothers and sisters, and beautiful scenery. Two dragons are coiled around our home: the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. And there's Mount Everest, the highest mountain..."

This song is quite appropriate to be sung in the Spring Festival Gala, it is festive~
After his show, there was the skit "Mom's Today" by Zhao Lirong and Gong Hanlin.

It's like "Tango is all about tumbling and tumbling~"!
The mother and daughter together also create a very comedic effect. This skit will never be outdated even if you watch it later.

In fact, crosstalk sketches are often in line with the times and respond to immediate phenomena and hot topics.

For example, this "Tango" represents people's love for dancing today.
Unlike the later Spring Festival Gala skits, they didn't dare to express anything, let alone satirize anything, so the only thing left was making dumplings.
Next is "Let Me Love You Enough Once" by Harlem Yu on the island.

Many actors from the island were invited to perform in this year's Spring Festival Gala.

Many viewers might be wondering: Why are these lyrics so weird? Let me love a dog for once?!
Xiatian didn’t even watch the next show. He just said something backstage and drove home.

I don’t have anything to do later, so it’s time to go home early to celebrate the New Year.

First, I went back to my parents' home in Nanluoguxiang, had a plate of dumplings, and wished them a happy new year. Then I went back to my own home in Beihai Siheyuan to eat dumplings with Milan, Xiaoxu, and Zhang Li.
Xiaoxu and Zhangli did not go home for the New Year, both of them used the excuse that they were starting a business.
When I go home to eat dumplings in the summer, I can still watch the later shows. This year, I didn’t have a deep impression of the sketches by Chen Xiaoer and Zhu Shimao.

However, the Spring Festival Gala ended with Li Guyi's "Unforgettable Tonight", which was a perfect ending.
……

I will continue to be busy with the post-production of "Farewell My Concubine" in the summer after the New Year. Now the rough cut has been completed, and the fine cut and the final version are in progress!

Work on the soundtrack is also proceeding simultaneously.

However, something happened the following year that is worth mentioning.

On February 2, the 7 countries of the European Community formally signed the Treaty on European Monetary Union.

The Euro was born!
This is a big deal!
European countries were broken into pieces like biscuit crumbs, and S1S2 were almost destroyed, as the Americans took full advantage of them.

It is normal for them to want to join forces to become bigger and stronger now.

However, the birth of the euro is a huge hidden danger to the United States' financial hegemony.

The Americans will definitely not sit idly by...

On February 2, CCTV obtained authorization to introduce more than 9 episodes of "Doraemon" from Xiao Ri Zi, translated as "Robot Cat".

It airs around 2:1 PM after CCTV-'s "Zhengda Variety Show," and replays on CCTV- around : PM the following day. Milan always gets Xiaoxu and Zhangli in front of the TV early. She loves anime.
The inland version is Dong Hao paired with Doraemon, translated as Amon~
At that time, young audiences called it "Amon" (in the early stage) and "Doraemon" (in the later stage).

Big Bear is called Kangfu, and Fat Tiger is called Big Bear~everything is messed up.

It was not until the author Fujiko F. Fujio passed away in 1996 that the translated names of Doraemon began to be gradually unified according to his will.

February 2, the 13nd Berlin International Film Festival.

The film "Ruan Lingyu" directed by Hong Kong director Stanley Kwan was nominated for the Golden Bear Award.

Zhang Manyu won the Best Actress Award for "Ruan Lingyu"! Berlin Film Queen!

This is the first time a Chinese actress has won this award at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Zhang Manyu won numerous awards for this film, including Best Actress at the Berlin Film Festival, Best Actress at the Chicago Film Festival, and Best Actress at the Hong Kong Film Awards.

This was the year when Maggie Cheung's film career reached its peak.

The Hong Kong Artists Union awarded her the "Screen Actor of the Year Award." This marked the beginning of her film career!

But she couldn't get over this role for several months because she was really into it!

This drama also stars Xia Tian's good friend Liang Jiahui and Liu Jialing~
When Liu Jialing was interviewed later, she said very innocently, "I hope I can become famous in the future."
(At this time, my eyes are filled with clear stupidity~)

Moreover, this movie was filmed in Shanghai, and Zhou Jie played a supporting role!
That's the big-nosed Erkang~
So, it's magical~
……

After the New Year, newspapers no longer harshly accused Wenzhou of being a "hotbed of Heping Y change", but instead called it the "vanguard of reform and opening up."

The reports that were still arguing about "what's the last name" yesterday are now all photos of beauty pageant winners such as "Miss New Century" in Yanjing, "Miss Culture and Etiquette" in Shanghai, and "Miss Rose" in Tianjin.

Although the newspapers were still embarrassed to say that this was a "beauty pageant", there were already many people responding.

The eyes of the young girls and wives lit up, and countless people signed up!
Times have really changed!

But Xia Tian didn't expect that his job would also change!

……

This is how things are, isn't everything going well?
So the leaders of the station wanted to achieve some results.

Although "Editor's Story" has a high audience rating and is widely discussed, some veteran comrades don't like it very much. They think it's too lively and not serious.

Recently, the TV series "A Play on Qianlong" on the island has been very popular, mainly because of the songs of Sister Yun and Xia Tian, ​​which have had a very great publicity effect.

But that’s not yours!
The leader thought of letting Xia Tian take the lead and organize some programs.

Xia Tian thought, what is going on?

I just wrote a plan: "Leader, let's do a 'Science Approach' to help people stay away from superstition."
You know what, the program planners actually thought it was pretty good - looking back in the future, this thing was a bit too insulting to people's intelligence, but it was very useful in enlightening the people at this time!

However, the leader still felt that it was not good enough, so he wanted Xia Tian to make "A Bite of China 2"!
The original "A Bite of China" caused a sensation across the country!
It was aired in 88, and it’s been almost four years now, but local stations are still broadcasting it!
It turns out that this is what the leader originally intended. I didn’t expect that there would be an extra program in the summer - double happiness!
There's no reason to refuse something like this. Xia Tian must be the best candidate for chief director!
Then, something went wrong.

Within a few days, bad rumors began to spread in the station.

The focus was mainly on Xia Tian’s “lifestyle issues”, saying that Xia Tian’s behavior was indecent and caused an uproar in Hong Kong.

He doesn't do any serious work at the station, he's always out, and now he's filming a movie and releasing an album...

Well, what they said is right.

Who doesn't know about the uproar you're causing?
Even though the higher-ups are trying to prevent it from being published, can you still shut everyone up?
But this happened neither earlier nor later, but at this time. Xia Tian probably understood what it meant.

Although Xia Tian is not "motivated" and cannot block anyone's way, he is too "resource-intensive"!

You have won so many good programs and achievements, so will others still be motivated?
Can an ordinary person seek advancement in CCTV?
Even though you are very capable, famous, and have people behind you, don't you have something on us now?

I came here mainly for "A Bite of China 2".

Maybe some people are jealous of "Science Approaches".

Xia Tian had thought about this a long time ago.

My current situation is indeed not suitable for me to stay in the public sector any longer.

No need, because times have changed!

Then I'm going to quit my job in the summer - I was going to quit my job too! I'm going to quit and go into the adult entertainment industry~
The Master immediately spoke to him: "Calm down! A little slander and sarcastic remarks are nothing! To achieve great things, one must be thick-skinned!"

This is really from the heart!
But Xia Tian was also determined to leave, so he expressed his concerns: "Boss, to be honest, I have a business deal (Wei Xidi) that's about to start soon, and it really isn't appropriate for me to stay in the station..."

Now is the second wave of people going into the sea business, and it is especially popular within the system. This is considered to be a trend in the summer.

Finally, the director had a deep talk with Xia Tian and said, "Since you think so, I won't stop you, but you can't quit. Take a leave of absence without pay!"
So, I went to the sea in summer.
