Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

The situation was like this. The chief producer in charge of the Spring Festival Gala at Huayang TV wanted to arrange for a female singer who was considered the first generation of Internet celebrity to sing a solo song, but he did not do a good job of coordinating the program, causing the time to exceed by 15 seconds.

Fifteen seconds. This number may not seem high, but it is just a short moment and will pass quickly.

But in fact, such a period of time is already very important. In such large-scale events, especially those broadcast live nationwide, basically all the processes are strictly regulated long in advance.

Every second counts. If there is even one second that is not planned well, it will lead to a serious stage accident.

Not to mention more than ten seconds, this time point is actually very fatal.

For example, just a few years after the Spring Festival Gala was launched, a famous death occurred, which directly led to this incident becoming a stage accident known throughout the country.

That was completely impossible to overcome and directly led to the failure of that Spring Festival Gala.

If one person can't make arrangements well, he or she will have to coordinate time with all the people behind him or her.

Originally, because they wanted to insert this female singer, they had already discussed it with all the actors later, and many actors even changed the script and deleted some content.

The same was true for Zhao Shanhai. When he first faced the chief producer who came to him and asked for a shorter shooting time, Zhao Shanhai was the first to agree to the request.

It simply shortened his performance time by two minutes!
These two minutes indirectly resulted in the cancellation of all of Zhao Shanhai’s original programs.

Yes, the whole book is invalid! It can't be kept at all!
He rewrote the script for the rest of the show himself, and used the time before the show started to do emergency rehearsals and fine-tuning.

But the problem is that Zhao Shanhai made the sacrifice, and then the subsequent program teams had to re-coordinate their performance arrangements one after another.

Later!

The program team also discovered that there was still a 15-second gap that could not be filled in the four-minute time when the female singer was inserted to sing a song.

In fact, at this point, the best arrangement is to cancel the performance arrangement of the female singer and return to the original plan.

At the same time, many planners of the Spring Festival Gala programs also proposed doing so.

This includes the chief director Urlantu.

But in the end, the general producer rejected the proposal and he still decided to let the female singer go on stage.

So, how do we fill the final gap of the extra fifteen seconds?

In the end, the chief producer's approach was to further squeeze Zhao Shanhai's performance time.

And this time, he did not coordinate in advance, because he was worried that Zhao Shanhai would not agree. Instead, he chose to bring it up just before the port was opened.

Then when Zhao Shanhai learned the news at Yicai, he naturally exploded on the spot.

Is there anything you couldn't have coordinated beforehand?

You have to wait until the rehearsal is about to begin before you say it.

The script has been written and arranged, and the actors are all familiar with each other.

Then you come out and say that it needs to be changed.

It is said that Zhao Shanhai cursed very badly at the scene at that time, and many actors heard the argument.

In the end, Zhao Shanhai threatened himself that if this arrangement was not cancelled, he would withdraw from the Spring Festival Gala.

As a result, the chief producer at the time did not take it seriously.

You know, the Spring Festival Gala back then was completely different from the one now. It was truly the authority among authorities.

It’s not that the Spring Festival Gala is begging the artists to perform, but that the artists are trying their best to get on their knees and beg the Spring Festival Gala to let them perform!
As long as you can perform on the Spring Festival Gala once, you will be just one step away from becoming a household name.

You can even become a popular celebrity all over the country in an instant.

This was the power of the Spring Festival Gala back then.

From the perspective of the chief producer, he did not think that Zhao Shanhai could leave the Spring Festival Gala stage. After all, Zhao Shanhai was at best the owner of a folk opera troupe, and it was entirely thanks to the Spring Festival Gala that he had achieved his current status and popularity.

As long as you leave the Spring Festival Gala, in a few years, who will know who you, Zhao Shanhai?
So the chief producer at that time rejected it very smoothly, basically without any hesitation.

This basically directly expressed his attitude to Zhao Shanhai.

Zhao Shanhai said nothing at the time, he just clapped and nodded.

In that year's Spring Festival Gala, the fifteen-second gap caused Zhao Shanhai to temporarily delete a large number of lines and program details.

This also caused Zhao Shanhai to be widely criticized after the Spring Festival Gala was broadcast.

Viewers said the quality of his shows had declined.

Say he is old.

They say he has run out of ideas.

They say he can no longer write the kind of sketches that amaze people, and that he is on a downward spiral.

The result can be imagined.

After all, the female singer failed to become an overnight sensation. She soon became a household name because she had no outstanding works and few original singles. She was only a cover of other people's songs. She was only popular for a few months and disappeared the following year. No trace of her was known.

Zhao Shanhai also issued an announcement to the public, claiming that he was old and echoed the audience's words, saying that he was no longer able to perform on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

Say goodbye to the Spring Festival Gala indefinitely!
And starting from that session, there has never been any disciple or grand disciple of Zhao Shanhai on the Spring Festival Gala, and no actor with the name of Liu Xiaogen has ever appeared on the stage.

They devoted all their efforts to managing their territory in the three provinces and running their opera troupe in full swing.

It was also in this year that the Spring Festival Gala began without Zhao Shanhai and his apprentices.

The data from the Spring Festival Gala showed a cliff-like decline.

Word of mouth also declined rapidly, getting worse year by year.

It was also from this year that Zhao Shanhai appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, and the image of "Everything is just a passing cloud" will forever remain in that year.

This was the first time that a popular internet meme was used in the Spring Festival Gala, and it became Zhao Shanhai’s swansong for the Spring Festival Gala.

The tragic failure in the second year finally woke the Spring Festival Gala program team up.

It turns out that it’s not that Zhao Shanhai can’t do without them, but that they simply can’t do without Zhao Shanhai.

The audience also realized that Zhao Shanhai was really that powerful. Without him, the others would not be able to bear to watch.

They don't understand the inside story and the hidden truth.

But they can see how boring the Spring Festival Gala would be without the actors from Zhao Shanhai and Liu Xiaogen's stage.

There are widespread calls on the Internet for Zhao Shanhai to return to the Spring Festival Gala stage.

Even the chief producer couldn't sit still, because he was the one who should be the most panicked.

Because of the precipitous drop in data and the fact that Zhao Shanhai was forced to leave, the station has begun investigating him.

He immediately took the things and went to Liao Province in person, hoping to apologize in person in order to win back Zhao Shanhai.

But after he arrived in Liaoning Province and stayed there for half a year, he finally had to accept the reality painfully.

That means he can't see Zhao Shanhai at all.
