Chapter 161 Intense Party Rehearsal
The city TV station’s Spring Festival Gala is neither big nor small.
Different from the inclusive and flourishing CCTV Spring Festival Gala, local Spring Festival Galas focus more on local characteristics and representative culture.
Therefore, they select materials more from the local area, but there are only a few famous song and dance troupes in a city and they are unable to come up with new ideas.
The ratings are getting lower and lower every year, and it is not as interesting as Mahjong Master which is broadcast regularly every Saturday morning.
In addition, after each Spring Festival Gala, the audience will compare the ratings of the same period. Even if their TV station and several well-known TV stations broadcast at different times, the ratings are still close to the "floor tiles".
The city's Spring Festival Gala director issued a military order this time, promising his superiors that he would come up with something new this year, and only then was the Spring Festival Gala project barely saved.
If they don't do well this time, there will be no need to hold the local Spring Festival Gala in their city.
Although not many people care, the director really doesn't want to lose his job.
He made drastic reforms in the direction of program selection.
In the past few years, they tried to invite celebrities to attract attention, but either the celebrities thought their station was not famous enough, or the price they asked was too high and they could not afford it.
The final result is that neither the stars nor they are satisfied, not to mention the audience.
This year, the director decided to let himself go completely.
Isn't the purpose of the Spring Festival Gala to add some liveliness to everyone's reunion on New Year's Eve, so he chose something lively.
I chose the evergreen tree by chance when I saw a video clip.
He saw the uncles and aunts in the square dance class dancing. The joyful rhythm and emotional appeal made the director laugh out loud unconsciously.
Their dancing doesn't have very strong techniques, but it's really fun. Every move carries excitement that overflows the screen, making people feel relaxed and happy, with smiles on their faces.
The 40-year-old director touched his belly, which was already full of fat, and sighed at the ruthlessness of time, and cried out to the sky:
"Why do I still have nearly 20 years before I can retire? I want to go to senior citizen university, too!"
“Will I automatically become like this in 20 years?”
On a whim, he followed the recommendation and watched the video of the aunties in the folk dance class dancing.
The fans turned flexibly in the aunts' hands, and when they raised their hands to cover their faces, it seemed as if one could get a glimpse of their youthful faces.
Or maybe not just when they were young, they are still stunning now.
Although they have white hair and wrinkles on their faces, they no longer look like they used to.
The smiles on their lips were still elegant and calm.
Gentle eyes watching everything with a smile.
After watching it, the director slammed the table again and shouted, "This is simply amazing! How is this different from the art troupe we invited from other places at a high price two years ago?"
"No, they dance better than that art troupe. They look like professionals."
The director beckoned over his assistant and excitedly told him, "Ten minutes. I need all the information about the Evergreen Senior University."
The young assistant complained about the director being crazy about reading novels about domineering CEOs, while being addicted to the videos of uncles and aunts.
The director was overjoyed and immediately sent an invitation to Chang Qingshu.
Soon he also received feedback that the uncles and aunts had not yet had their winter vacation.
So the director began to look forward to the holidays, waiting for his uncles and aunts.
During this period, after more than a month of searching and screening, the director found a group of talented people from all walks of life.
His standard is that as long as you have work to do, he will let you perform on the Spring Festival Gala, no matter how old you are, what industry you are in, or whether you are famous or not.
He formed a "grassroots team" in the eyes of outsiders, and fought to the top of the Spring Festival Gala.
……
At this moment, the director watched the second rehearsal of the uncles and aunts with tears in his eyes.
The square dance class and folk dance class were divided into two programs.
The aunties in the square dance class chose a very classic song "Come and see me when the flowers bloom"
It fits the temperament of uncles and aunts very well.
The uncles and aunts held artificial flower props in their hands, and when they performed actions, the flowers moved with them, which was unexpectedly playful and cute.
The crosstalk duo currently waiting in the wings are doctors by main job. Because one of them talks a lot and the other is good at connecting with jokes, they often perform together during team building events and are very popular on short video platforms.
The two were not nervous and were in the mood to tease each other: "Look at the uncles and aunts, and then look at you. If you don't learn some talents now, you will not be able to keep up with the times when you are old, and you can only sit at the village head eating melon seeds and gossiping."
"Do you really think that anyone can join the village intelligence group?"
"Those younger than me are more fashionable than me, and those older than me are more stylish than me. What role do I play in the middle?"
"It serves as a link between the past and the future."
……
Several programs were performed one after another, and the director's smile became more and more obvious. When he saw the aunts from the folk dance class coming on stage, his face was about to break with laughter.
He just found out that the lead dancer, Aunt Song, used to be the principal dancer of the dance troupe. She is a treasure-level dancer that can’t be hired even with money.
Teacher Yuting from the folk dance class was also arranged a separate program by the director.
I also heard that their senior citizen university has a band and a choir, and the director has even thought about the program for next year.
He now wishes he could send his parents to learn talents right away.
Once the uncles and aunts take action, the show will definitely be effective.
Why worry about annoying relatives asking you to perform during the Chinese New Year? You can easily give a performance that will shock the whole audience.
During the rehearsal days, the director called them brothers and sisters affectionately and was always concerned about the status of the uncles and aunts, fearing that his treasured program would be lost.
His uncles and aunts are now his lifeline and the dawn of hope for his brilliant career.
As soon as this show came out, it was both entertaining and discussed.
He had a feeling that this year's party would be a hit.
……
When Lin Qinglan came to watch the uncles and aunts rehearse, the director was crying and laughing, with tears in his eyes.
Lin Qinglan asked with concern: "Director, are you okay?"
"Principal Lin, I finally meet you. Thank you so much for your school being able to train such outstanding uncles and aunts."
The director felt sorry for his earlier doubts; the uncle and aunt were simply gods to him.
He now feels that everyone at the senior citizens' university has special skills.
"Principal Lin, I forgot to ask you during our previous communication. Do you have any talents that you can perform?"
He felt that if he could grab an evergreen school, he could produce many programs.
The director's eyes sparkled, "If you have talent, come and stage a show in two years."
Lin Qinglan didn't know what he wanted to do, and she quickly went through the thoughts in her mind: her singing was cracked and out of tune, she could trip herself while dancing, and her limbs were uncoordinated.
When asked to show her talent, she memorized "Ode to the Goose" from the age of three to her twenties.
She shook her head desperately: "Forget it, forget it, I can't do it."
The director expressed deep regret and asked her mysteriously, "Principal Lin, will you still be the principal in 20 years? Can you reserve a place for me in advance?"
He absolutely loves Evergreen Senior University.
