Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 395 The Shackles on Skit

Spring Festival Gala?

Looking for me?
When Zhou Hao received this notice, he was completely stunned.

Although he had fantasized about performing on the Spring Festival Gala, he is not a star in front of the stage after all, so it has always been just a fantasy.

At least in the short term, he didn't think about it.

However, I never expected that the olive branch would come like this.

But this situation is a bit special - we are going to put out a fire.

It's already December, and there are still at least three programs that failed to meet the standards... It's simply outrageous.

This is the Spring Festival Gala stage for the whole country. Any slight mistake would be a major accident, let alone three major programs?
After learning the whole story, Zhou Hao could only sigh secretly that people’s hearts have changed.

In the past, who would dare to hinder the Spring Festival Gala? Who would dare to make trouble on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala? Do they think they are living too comfortably?

However, since the entry of Internet capital, celebrities who now have a way out have obviously begun to become arrogant, and their attitude towards the Spring Festival Gala is no longer as revered as before and they dare not disobey it.

There are people on the neighboring Earth who dare to openly go to Chunshan to cause trouble, and there are also people here who try every means to trip up the director.

The stench is equally bad.

Since it was a fire-fighting operation, there was no time to delay. Zhou Hao packed his luggage and set off for Yanjing without saying a word.

In addition to Zhang Hong, Xiaotu and other team members, Chen Ailun also came with them.

This guy also received an invitation to perform at the Spring Festival Gala, and he was specifically invited to sing "Descendants of the Dragon".

Ever since he started on the street, this kid has never stopped talking.

"...I didn't expect that I would be able to get on the Spring Festival Gala with just one shot. Awesome, really awesome!"

"...Brother, you have no idea how frustrated my dad was on the phone. This time there is really no reason to ask me to go back home for the New Year, hahahaha..."

"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to you. If it weren't for your song..."

"Can you be quiet?" Zhou Hao said unhappily, "You're making my head hurt. I still have things to think about."

"Oh, Sau Rui Sau Rui." Chen Ailun apologized repeatedly and shrank back angrily.

He also knew that Zhou Hao was under a lot of pressure right now.

The task assigned to Chen Ailun by the Spring Festival Gala directors was to sing a ready-made song, but the task assigned to Zhou Hao was much more troublesome - he had to help plan and fill two holes. Just imagine how troublesome that would be.

Zhou Hao was indeed considering the Spring Festival Gala program. The poetry recitation program was actually relatively easy to arrange, but the skit program was a bit troublesome.

The language programs of the Spring Festival Gala have been rotten for many years, and their reputation has been getting worse year by year. There are many reasons for this phenomenon.

The most important point is that with the popularization of the Internet, all kinds of hot memes will spread to all parts of the country overnight and sink to every user's Internet terminal.

In the past, due to lack of information, skits that relied on integrating plot points to create jokes could still earn a lot of laughs, but this routine no longer works now. Not only will no one laugh, but people will find it vulgar.

Another problem is that the plot is too formulaic. It starts with a comedy and ends with tears. It uses all kinds of sentimental techniques to make you cry a few tears, and then finally says "Dumplings are smashed"...

My head hurts just thinking about it.

In this era, it is actually very difficult to produce a skit that can satisfy the audience - first, you have to have new jokes, and they cannot be clichés from online jokes.

Second, you have to abandon those routine themes and give people a refreshing feeling. The difficulty lies not in the script itself, but in the review.

After all, this is the Spring Festival Gala stage, and family fun is the main theme. Third, you must have a very solid script. It can't be a noisy, messy script, but a complete drama regulation.

Fourth, you also need a group of reliable comedians to make the audience laugh.

Many of Uncle Benshan's sketches are not that good in terms of the script alone, but as long as he and Teacher Dandan stand there, every gesture is funny. This is the actor's skill.

These conditions may be easily met individually, but if they are all combined, the difficulty is no less than climbing to the sky.

Especially at this delicate and sensitive moment, the difficulty of coordination will only increase exponentially.

Until the plane landed in Yanjing, Zhou Hao had not come up with any reliable ideas.

After checking into the hotel and resting for half a day, Zhou Hao brought Chen Ailun to CCTV's No. 1 studio, which is the rehearsal site for this year's Spring Festival Gala's main stage.

When they arrived at the scene after passing through layers of security checks, there were people practicing group dance on the stage. They were all professional dancers from the Yanjing Dance Academy. Their beautiful figures and graceful dance moves were a feast for Zhou Hao's eyes.

Just when I was watching the movie with great interest, director Kong Lin came over with his people.

Zhou Hao quickly took the initiative to greet him, "Director Kong, sorry to have kept you waiting."

"I think I'm the one who's late?" Kong Lin shook hands with him and said with a laugh, "I'm really sorry to call you over to help out at this time."

Chen Ailun also took the opportunity to come up and bend over to shake hands, "No, no, it's our honor to be able to participate in the Spring Festival Gala."

Kong Lin nodded with a smile, "Come over and have a cup of tea, sit down and chat."

When the group arrived at the lounge, Kong Lin immediately dismissed all the entourage. Zhou Hao also understood instantly and asked the others to wait outside, leaving only himself and Kong Lin to talk face to face.

After taking a sip of tea, Kong Lin smacked his lips and said, "Xiao Zhou, time is tight and the task is heavy. I won't play polite games with you anymore. When the task is completed, I will treat you to a good meal and get to know you."

"Director Kong, you're joking. I didn't come here for your meal." Zhou Hao said with a smile.

"Okay." Kong Lin nodded and said, "What do you think of the two programs I told you about?"

"Poetry recitation is not a big problem. I have a suitable manuscript here."

"Really?" Kong Lin's eyes lit up. "Did you bring the manuscript?"

"Here." Zhou Hao pointed to his head, "I'll print it out for you to review later."

"Okay!" Kong Lin's face was obviously relieved.

Whether the manuscript is good or not is another matter, but he likes this guy’s work attitude.

It's only been one day!

If other people could be half as proactive as he is, this year's Spring Festival Gala wouldn't have turned out like this!

"What about the skit?" Kong Lin asked again.

Zhou Hao frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I really can't do anything about this, Director Kong."

A trace of disappointment flashed across Kong Lin's eyes. "Where do you think the difficulty lies?"

Zhou Hao spoke his thoughts in full, and then added his own conclusion: "Director Kong, the current Spring Festival Gala stage has added too many shackles to skits, making it difficult to produce a wonderful show. Trying hard will only backfire."

Kong Lin raised his eyebrows, "You seem to have something else to say? Speak clearly."

"Director Kong." Zhou Hao lowered his voice quietly, "Do you want to change the format of this language program?"
