This star just wants to learn.

Pu Tong last visited CCTV during the Spring Festival last year. Today is a revisit to the old place. Walking and looking around along the way, I feel that things have changed a lot...

Last year, this day was also for the Spring Festival Gala, but the difference is that the friends who were chattering around me then were not here this year.

This time, he will face the challenge alone.

Yu Wanwan and Xie Mu are under great pressure from studying, Lin Yuxi and Iori Yukino are not interested in this, and Gan Hengxu is busy learning skills, practicing martial arts, and dating, and cannot get away.

Tang Luocheng and Chen Siqing wanted to come, but unfortunately they didn't find the opportunity. It would be difficult for them to perform on the Spring Festival Gala based on their own abilities.

In the end, seven professional stars didn't come, and Pu Tong, an "amateur", became the only one who continued to appear on the Spring Festival Gala...

When they first met, he was studying hard and the group of seven was shining, but now everything seems to be the opposite.

Pu Tong was a frequent guest of CCTV. He was familiar with the route and went straight to the studio without waiting for Wei Mingfeng to greet him.

The rehearsal work for this year's Spring Festival Gala is already more than halfway through, and most of the works are ready. The sketch "We're Not Short of Money" is one of the few that has just formed a lineup.

Of course, there is also the "alternative option" of Pu Tong's song, provided that he can improvise it, otherwise it can only be done by someone else.

The busy guests backstage were all stunned when they saw him. Why did Pu Tong come? It seemed that there was no one like him in this year's Spring Festival Gala. They had already rehearsed for several rounds...

"It's okay, you continue."

It was inside information that Pu Tong would be on the Spring Festival Gala, and these ordinary guests were not aware of it. Pu Tong did not want to explain too much either. He could only say that those who understood would understand, and it was useless to explain to those who did not understand.

He didn't find Wei Mingfeng, but he met the director of the Spring Festival Gala, Yu Yang. She did an excellent job last year, and it seems that she will be the director again this year.

"Old Wei is in the skit rehearsal room. I'll take you there."

Although last year's Spring Festival Gala received rave reviews, Yu Yang really doesn't dare to take credit for it. The real soul of the show is the person in front of him, and he should not be neglected...

It seems that Wei Mingfeng attaches great importance to his skit and has begun to supervise it personally.

When Pu Tong and Yu Yang walked into the rehearsal room, a skit practice was in progress, but the actors didn't seem to notice them and were still immersed in the performance.

Wei Mingfeng, who was sitting not far away, noticed Pu Tong at the first moment and immediately stood up to greet him. He had been looking forward to this kid finally coming.

"Pause!"

He simply stopped the rehearsal. Aimless practice had little effect. Instead of performing it again, he would rather let Pu Tong, a professional, give him some advice.

Several comedians then looked at Pu Tong and the director, and came over to greet them excitedly.

"Why stop? I want to watch it for a while!"

"Isn't this just to make you watch it from the beginning? 'Not Short of Money' is one of this year's key shows, so we have to check it carefully."

Pu Tong nodded. He could really give some guidance. After all, he had seen the original sketch. "We're Not Short of Money" was too classic. He remembered the expressions and movements of several people very clearly.

He looked at the four people in front of him. He recognized the person who played Uncle Zhao. He was the master who taught Chen Siqing how to perform skits last year. His spirit and energy were quite similar to Zhao Benshan...

However, Pu Tong was most concerned about the actor who played "Xiao Shenyang". From what Uncle Wei said on the phone, this person might be a folk master.

He had already noticed this flat-headed guy a long time ago. He had a white face, greasy hair, and a pair of vivid little mouse eyes. His naughty look was exactly like Xiao Shenyang himself.

That’s amazing! I don’t know where the program crew found this person from, it’s amazing!
"This is what I told you on the phone, Xiao Yang."

"Hello, Mr. Pu. I'm your fan." The man in Scottish wide-leg pants greeted with a smile, "Can you take a photo with me? Everyone in the village wants to see you..."

"no problem."

Pu Tong really didn't realize that he was involved in weddings and funerals. He looked quite festive. Can he sing the high notes well? The climax of "Not Short of Money" is actually in that singing competition. One sang "The Red Mountain Flowers Are Blooming Red" and the other sang "The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau". The main focus was on the high-pitched duel.

If this part is not sung well, half of the essence of the sketch will be lost.

"Without further delay, let's all perform it again and let Teacher Pu Tong review it."

"No, it should be."

Several of them are professionals, and the only amateur is a folk artist. They are all people who have endured hardships, so practice is naturally a common thing for them.

Pu Tong was also happy to appreciate it. It was undoubtedly a great fortune to be able to see the works of memory in a foreign land.

CCTV's strict selection is indeed different. The polishing of the script is quite good. After several collaborations, it actually gave Pu Tong a sense of memory illusion.

They at least restored 80% of the image.

However, Pu Tong still found a few minor problems, such as Xiao Shenyang's line "I close my eyes and open them, and a day has passed", which has a sarcastic ending tone, and they don't have the feeling of a performance.

Pu Tong has a picture in his mind, so he can make adjustments in details, which is something that other people, even professionals, do not have.

Soon the plot came to the song competition segment. The first one was a line from "You and Me", but in the plot it was sung by Xiao Shenyang as "Myth".

If you haven't heard the songs, you probably won't be able to appreciate the funny moments like singing the wrong song. It seems like I have to find a time to release these two songs so that the audience can feel more involved.

It’s time to find something for the kids to do… Let’s put it this way, whoever performs best in the final exam will sing, and the one with the highest score will win.

Just when Pu Tong was making some calculations, the skit began to reach high notes. After some preparation, Xiao Yang sang at the top of his lungs a classic line from "The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau".

“That’s the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau~”

Xiao Yang's face instantly turned red from yelling, but the high-pitched song resounded through the sky, shocking everyone in the rehearsal room.

What shocked Pu Tong was that there actually was a comedian who could sing the high notes so well, while what shocked Wei Mingfeng was that his voice was even higher than in the previous rehearsal.

It seems like this guy really wants to perform well in front of his idol...

Everyone gave their applause generously, and the rehearsal of "We're Not Short of Money" officially ended. If the screenwriter Pu Tong had no objection, then this would be the final version.

"How do you feel?"

There was a hint of knowing the answer in Wei Mingfeng's smile, as if he wanted to take credit from Pu Tong: How good am I at selecting people?
How about it? Of course it is perfect. Pu Tong, who has seen the original work, is very satisfied. These people have restored it so successfully.

Especially Xiao Yang, who is good at both comedy and singing. It turns out that there are many masters among the people.

"Great, Xiao Yang is a good candidate."

Wei Mingfeng was very pleased with Pu Tong's answer. How could it not be great? Look at who selected the actors. It was him who had a good eye for talent.

"Xiao Yang, you probably haven't signed with the company yet..."

Pu Tong changed the subject and started recruiting people. "What do you think of our Kepu?"

It’s not in vain, it’s not in vain, since you are here, you might as well help the company find some good talents!
"Ok?"

Wei Mingfeng was stunned when he heard this. Xiao Yang was found by CCTV and was going to join the national team in the future. This kid actually wanted to take advantage of him!

Is it true that CCTV has been snatched away by the people?
