China Entertainment's turbulent era

Chapter 123 Spring Festival Gala, it's set! Unexpected visitor at the premiere of "Cinema for the Blind"
Hao Jian, I am in a particularly good mood today.

He's going to be promoted to lobby manager.

"Let me tell you something, the boss has had a fit recently, and he insisted on promoting me to be the lobby manager! I accidentally got into an official career! Haha... happy! My wife is also happy! New mobile phone, new clothes... photo With this progress, I can ascend to heaven in less than 40!"

The sketch is called "Today's Happiness".

The initial script was created by Shen Fang and Shen Teng, and the role of Hao Jian was also thought of by the two of them.

Of course, it was mainly Shen Fang, who really contributed a lot.

However, as far as the overall plot is concerned...

Sister Ma Li, and Wang Qi.

The inspiration comes from the previous 'The Strongest Car Chase'.

Sister Ma Li plays the boss Ma Dongmei, while Wang Qi plays Shen Teng's daughter-in-law.

The conflict in this skit is simple.

It seems that Wang Qi said it as soon as he came out.

"Why did your single female boss promote you to be the lobby manager?"

"Dare you doubt me?"

"I doubt you two!"

After that, Hao Jian took the mobile phone and had to turn it on so that his wife could listen to it.

Go up to find the female boss Ma Dongmei.

……

As far as this sketch is concerned, Ma Dong is quite interesting to watch.

The whole is such a relatively relaxed and lively sketch.

Hmm... Don't underestimate these simple modifiers.

To be on the Spring Festival Gala skit, it's funny enough, relaxed and lively, it's actually not necessary.

What is really necessary is...educational.

Taili has been emphasizing the significance of education a long time ago.

And this year, Taili even gave Uncle Ben Shan a clear framework.

After Ma Dong watched that work, Baiyun and Heitu started "Planning".

It should be said that the level of Uncle Benshan and Sister Dandan is still very strong, and they are definitely killing other existences in seconds.

However, it can also be seen that the focus of this sketch is to satirize reality.

In terms of humor, it is not as strong as their previous works.

Ma Dong also understands the significance of this emphasis on education. CCTV is not an ordinary media, so it is understandable to do so.

However, as a descendant of a cross talk artist, and a person who has enough research on comedy.

Ma Dong himself prefers works that are purely funny and don't have to be sarcastic.

This "Happiness Today" is obviously a purely funny work.

It seems that I didn't go wrong this trip.

……

I've watched the show, and Ma Dong and Mr. Chang are still brothers of the same generation.

Then everyone will naturally go out and have a good drink.

At the beginning, they were all put away, and waited until the wine was hot.

Also let go.

"Guys, I actually want to ask a question, do you think it's better to be a pure comedy, or a comedy with that kind of educational significance?"

As soon as Ma Dong's question came up, people who were not familiar with it, such as Ma Li and Brother Xiang, were at a loss.

For those who are more acquainted, Mr. Chang, he replied directly.

"Pure."

In this "Happiness Today", he played Ma Dongmei's ex-husband.

Well, this of course involves a problem.

Why did they leave?
Why is it still unclear?

Mr. Chang's direct fingering of a sissy orchid illustrates this problem.

This is a very funny bridge in the sketch.

Now, with his answer like this, how does Ma Dong react?
The young man laughed, "However, I want to remind you that many classic comedies have a strong educational significance of satirizing reality."

He was right.

Even Brother Teng nodded, "Indeed."

But why are you talking about this?
Although Wang Qi and Ma Li can eat at the same table now, they still have some grievances.

At this moment, they exchanged glances.

The meaning is very clear: why does Ma Dong ask this?

It's not just the two of them, there are others who don't understand either.

Shen Fang has received a lot of attention. Although Ma Dong's identity is there, he is one of the directors of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. It is normal to come to watch the show now.

However, Shen Fang actually figured out Ma Dong's true purpose this time from the very beginning.

He wants to cultivate his own 'power'.

Don't think about these things first, let's face the problem in front of us first.

"Brother Ma, I have a little opinion about the purity of comedy."

"Brother Shen Fang, I think your opinion must be very interesting."

It can be heard that Ma Dong is looking forward to it.

Shen Fang said with a smile: "Comedy, we are all majors, most of us have heard that sentence, the core of comedy is tragedy."

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded.

There is indeed such a saying, but, can you, Shen Fang, say anything?

Ma Dong looked forward to it even more.

But I heard Shen Fang say: "The so-called who is educated, or what is the meaning, and how to educate. I think one thing should be insisted on, that is: not deliberately."

Not on purpose?
This statement is really new.

Shen Fang further said: "Not deliberately, I believe everyone can understand, but I still have to emphasize that the not deliberately I talked about is related to one thing.

Level.

It is the level of screenwriting of a comedy, the level of acting skills of performers, the level of director, and the level of all aspects.

To put it simply, only rookies will deliberately emphasize the so-called educational significance and the so-called irony.

A real classic comedy never deliberately educates the audience. The actors only need to do their best to be funny, and wait for us to laugh.

Many reflections naturally arise in my heart. "

After saying this, the wine table was silent.

Until Ma Li couldn't bear the surprise.

Bang slapped the table.

"Brother! That's great!"

When she said brother, Shen Fang couldn't help but think of Xiaomi.

"Sister, that..."

"Well said!" Ma Dong was also very happy.

"This is my younger brother!" Brother Teng was also proud.

Everyone else followed suit!

But in fact, Shen Fang hadn't finished talking yet.

He wanted to give an example.

For example, the classic movie "Millionaire" or "Million Pounds". This movie is about a person who suddenly gets a million dollars, and after that, his whole life changes.

Not to mention very funny, but among them, people can't help but think of... the evil capitalism.

It can be said that anyone who has seen this movie will feel the stench of capitalism.

However, there is absolutely nothing critical of capitalism in this movie.

Even many subsequent adaptations did not.

Can be particularly ironic.

Also, there are plenty of classic comedies to look back on.

Let’s take Uncle Ben Shan’s. He has many works in his early days. Has he thought about educating anyone?

No, but irony is enough.

In "Selling Abductees", if you stomp on it, you will be numb, and what you are scolding is something that cannot be said.

Is there anything intentional about Uncle Ben Shan?
Not at all!
Moreover, looking at his later works, he always asked for something to be added, so it was not as good-looking as before.

Until the later "Not Bad Money".

In fact, there is no need for Uncle Ben Shan, a master of comedy, to interfere with him.

He is the number one person in comedy, and others are no strangers compared to him.

It's as if Bronze insists on instructing the strongest king how to build.

However, even if these examples are not cited, it is enough.

Ma Dong simply raised his glass and stood up, "It was a worthwhile trip to meet so many good friends today! In addition, everyone should prepare well, and the other things will be taken care of by me!"

When he said this, Mr. Chang had to come out and say a few words.

"Brother, it would be great to have your words! Brothers have a bottom line."

Ma Dong gave Mr. Chang a lot of face. He, Mr. Chang, is the direct descendant of Chang's cross talk, not an ordinary person.

"Brother, it would be nice if you told me earlier that you were in Twist, I brought you to the Spring Festival Gala program group early in the morning!"

Sure enough, there are people in the court who are easy to handle.

Everyone smiled and toasted, and drank it all in one gulp!

……

"I said, is this Ma Dong so reliable?"

"Yes, Xiao Fang, he came here so suddenly, does he have other plans?"

After seeing off Ma Dong, Brother Teng and Brother Xiang had other ideas.

Shen Fang kept a smile on his face, and he became a little serious when Ma Dong left.

"The matter of going to the Spring Festival Gala should not be a big problem, but I reckon that he actually wants to grab the class and seize power."

what?
Can this be said?
Both Brother Teng and Brother Xiang didn't believe it.

But they also understand the truth. The most influential program of the Spring Festival Gala is the language program.

Ma Dong himself is the son of a cross talk master with a profound background, and if he has the help of a new comedy force like Happy Twist.

Winning the chief director is not a certainty!
It's just what will happen next, and how much benefit the Spring Festival Gala can bring to Shen Fang and Happy Twist.

They don't know right now.

But at least, the choices they made so far are all okay.

To maximize the benefits, as the principle.

Then, let's count the time, the Lunar New Year holiday is coming.

……

The long-awaited "Golden Armor in the City" was officially released on December 12.

Originally, everyone was expecting Zhang Yimou to hold a large-scale premiere, but it turned out that this time it was just a small fuss.

Of course, the general movie premiere is much more powerful.

Anyone who can be invited is invited, and there is even a man named Lao Guo who talks about cross talk.

But in the end, it was not held in a stadium like Gongti, nor did it find an internationally renowned soprano to sing a song.

Probably the failure of "House of Flying Daggers" discouraged Zhang Yimou.

Unexpectedly, once the movie was released, the box office was very good.

However, word of mouth is bad.

"The city is full of hot girls!"

"Zhang Yimou has fallen!"

"I didn't pay attention to the plot, it all depends on Naizi!"

Don't mention it if you complain about it on the Internet.

Under such circumstances, a movie also had its premiere.

On December 12, on this day, the weather was fine.

"Cinema for the Blind" held its premiere at the Century Theater.

The reason for choosing here is mainly because everyone has cooperated for many years.

Convenient and save money.

Also, the venue is big enough.

The red carpet was paved at the entrance, and many reporters were already waiting by the side.

Now everyone knows that Shen Fang is not a starlet.

Yang Xiaomi's name is also much louder than before.

What kind of sparks will the two of them lead this time?

Without making anyone wait, the two of them walked onto the red carpet.

Still dressed in black and white, one handsome and one beautiful, one tall and one big.

It really complements each other.

Originally, this premiere was not considered a big deal, as the venue was chosen at the Century Theater.

It's just that there are a lot of reporters today, but it's normal.

But what people never expected was that when the red carpet ceremony was about to end, a girl appeared.

"Wow! Look! It's a fairy!"

"Liu Yifei? Why is she here?"

"Liu Yifei! Look this way!"

That's right, Liu Yifei appeared at the entrance of the Century Theater in a down jacket.

　It's really late, I'm sorry, it shouldn't be like this tomorrow, I will definitely continue to update a lot of black cars!
