This top celebrity got drunk and acted crazy, and everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry bur

Although Feng Xiaogang doesn't have much professional appreciation for music, just like an ordinary person, he didn't want to make any comments after listening to this song.

Great song!

This is definitely a classic song that will be passed down for generations!

Just as Peng Xiao said before, the most suitable stage for this song is the Spring Festival Gala.

That guy really wasn't lying; he really did come up with a new song that's no less impressive than "Ode to Young China."

What's the name of this song?

After calming down for a while, Feng Xiaogang's voice was slightly hoarse as he asked Peng Xiao, who was sitting silently to the side.

"Where Has the Time Gone?"

After letting out a long sigh of relief, Peng Xiao finally spoke.

"Great song, great title!"

Feng Xiaogang's eyes held a hint of emotion, as if he had remembered something.

When Feng Xiaogang first saw the distracted look on the music team staff, he wondered what had happened. Now, after listening to the song, he finally understood why.

In other words, the staff members are not very old and do not have much life experience. If a middle-aged person suddenly heard this song, they would probably burst into tears instantly.

Even Feng Xiao, who considers herself to have excellent emotional control, was overwhelmed with emotion when she heard this song. She almost wanted to quit and go home to spend the New Year with her parents.

No amount of success, wealth, or fame can compare to the gentle call of one's parents before they pass away.

Feng Xiaogang could almost imagine what it would be like when Lü Ming sang this song on the Spring Festival Gala stage on New Year's Eve.

With Lü Ming's song this year, it will definitely become a classic of the Spring Festival Gala in the hearts of countless people.

Thinking of this, Feng Xiaogang couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Even for a renowned director like Feng Xiaogang, such an opportunity to make history is rare and precious.

This guy is definitely my lucky star!

Feng Xiaogang was initially worried, even though he had accepted the arrangements made by the senior leaders of CCTV and become the chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

But to be honest, before this, in response to the CCTV leadership's requirements to make the Spring Festival Gala more youthful and entertaining, and to reverse the ratings and reputation of the Gala, Feng Xiaogang had already made some reforms to the Gala as much as possible, and even invited some popular artists and celebrities in the hope of attracting the attention of the younger generation.

But even after achieving this much, Feng Xiaogang still lacked confidence.

After all, the Spring Festival Gala is not like it was decades ago. Young people now have so many different ways to entertain themselves. If there are no reforms, the old-fashioned Spring Festival Gala programs will not attract young people at all.

However, if the reforms are too drastic, it will affect the older generation who watch the Spring Festival Gala, who are currently the main audience for the Gala.

Now, after listening to Lü Ming's song, Feng Xiaogang's pressure instantly vanished, and the heavy weight that had been hanging over him for so long could finally be lifted off his shoulders.

With just one song by Lü Ming, Feng Xiaogang was able to fulfill the demands of those high-ranking leaders.

"I'll call that guy right now, and I'll agree to all his demands!"

Thinking of this, Feng Xiaogang quickly took out his phone, ready to call Lü Ming and tell him that they had agreed to all the conditions he had mentioned before.

With just this one song, Lü Ming doesn't need to participate in any meaningless work like auditions or rehearsals; he only needs to come and participate during the final rehearsal.

Even if the higher-ups have objections, Feng Xiaogang believes they will understand when they hear the song on the Spring Festival Gala.

We need to finalize things with Lü Ming as soon as possible; it wouldn't be good if it got delayed by other things.

Meanwhile, Lu Ming, who had just assigned the work to Lu Hao and his assistant, hadn't even had a few minutes to rest when his phone rang—it was a call from director Feng Xiaogang.

It looks like the results are in!
Upon seeing the call from Feng Xiaogang, Lü Ming knew that Feng Xiaogang and his team had already listened to the demo of his new song.

When Lü Ming received Feng Xiaogang's invitation last time, he immediately thought of this song.

So during his free time these past two days, Lü Ming casually found a recording studio and recorded a simple demo, which he then sent to the Spring Festival Gala production team.

Lü Ming had no worries about whether the song would meet the requirements of Feng Xiaogang and the Spring Festival Gala production team.

This song is a true classic!
It's just that its popularity lasted a little shorter, but in terms of quality, it's definitely no less than the classic "Come Home Often".

As a classic song about family affection, even Lü Ming couldn't help but feel a little sentimental when singing it.

Lü Ming's statement that he would create a new song no less than "Ode to Young China" was not a lie. In Lü Ming's view, the quality of "Ode to Young China" was definitely inferior to this song.

The reason why "A Young China" was so popular and well-received was actually related to the circumstances at the time.

If it weren't for the incidents that occurred on Hunan TV's variety show "Asian King", the song "Ode to Young China" would never have had such a huge impact.

However, "Where Has the Time Gone?" is completely different. It is a song full of sincere emotions, and its popularity will not be affected no matter when you listen to it, especially on the Spring Festival Gala, a stage for family reunions, where it is even more fitting.

If Feng Xiaogang and the Spring Festival Gala production team don't even like this song, then Lü Ming has nothing to do but say that they are all blind.

Thinking of this, Lü Ming picked up the phone and answered it.

"Xiao Lü, what are you doing now?"

As soon as the call connected, Lü Ming heard a completely different tone in Feng Xiaogang's voice on the other end.

If Feng Xiaogang's last phone call to Lü Ming was in a very businesslike tone, this time Feng Xiaogang's call was much more amiable, and the way he addressed him changed from "Lü Ming" to the more intimate "Little Lü".

Upon hearing Feng Xiaogang's tone, Lü Ming knew he was in the clear.

If Feng Xiaogang had said he didn't like Lü Ming's song, he certainly wouldn't have said it in such a friendly tone.

"It's nothing!"

"Director Feng, did you receive the song I sent? How is it? Does it meet your requirements?"

Lu Ming spoke very politely to Feng Xiaogang on the other end of the phone.

You can't hit someone who's smiling!
Although Lü Ming wasn't very happy with Feng Xiaogang's attitude last time, he couldn't very well refuse to give him face now that Feng Xiaogang was being so friendly.

"Received it, received it!"

"We are very satisfied with your song, and we have agreed to all the conditions you mentioned before!" "You only need to attend the final rehearsal the day before the Spring Festival Gala; we won't waste your time on the previous selections and rehearsals!"

Feng Xiaogang on the other end of the phone said excitedly.

Although it was against the rules for Lü Ming to not participate in the previous selections and rehearsals at all, and only attend the rehearsal on the last day, Feng Xiaogang didn't care at all.

Feng Xiaogang doesn't care what the other participating artists might say. If they can produce high-quality works like Lü Ming's, he can give them special treatment and make exceptions for them.

But can they?

Looking at the list of Spring Festival Gala programs confirmed this year, none of them can compare to Lü Ming's new song in Feng Xiaogang's mind.

"Okay!"

"Then thank you for your understanding, Director Feng!"

Hearing Feng Xiaogang's words, Lü Ming wasn't particularly surprised, as if he had already guessed this outcome. He politely replied to Feng Xiaogang on the other end of the phone.

"Then let's talk when we meet!"

"Oh"

"There's one more thing!"

Just as Feng Xiao was about to hang up the phone, she seemed to remember something and said to Lü Ming on the other end of the line, "So, would you mind playing a cassette tape and lip-syncing to the song?"

When this was mentioned, Feng Xiaogang was also a little worried, fearing that Lü Ming would be like those arrogant artists and be very disgusted by lip-syncing.

Just like the diva that Feng Xiaogang and his team contacted before, they had a good chat, but when it came to asking her to lip-sync, her attitude changed instantly. As if she had been humiliated, she directly rejected Feng Xiaogang and his team's invitation.

However, Feng Xiaogang had no way to deal with this situation.

You have to understand that the Spring Festival Gala is not some small program or a small show. Even if you make a small mistake, it won't be a big deal, since the number of viewers is not that large.

But the Spring Festival Gala is completely different. With over a billion viewers worldwide, even the slightest mistake is unacceptable.

Therefore, in order to prevent live broadcast accidents, almost all singers participating in the Spring Festival Gala sang by playing tapes and lip-syncing.

If Lü Ming insists on singing live, then no matter how much Feng Xiaogang likes the song, there's nothing he can do but give up.

"No problem!"

Upon hearing Feng Xiaogang's question, Lü Ming answered without hesitation.

Lü Ming is not a rigid person who insists on pursuing the artistic ideal of live singing. For Lü Ming, both live and lip-syncing are acceptable.

In Lü Ming's view, lip-syncing on the Spring Festival Gala stage is actually a very normal thing.

On such an important stage, with countless cameras, spotlights, and even billions of people watching from outside the screen, even the slightest problem would be a major incident.

To be on the safe side, lip-syncing is actually a bit safer.

Besides, apart from the few audience members present at the venue, the vast majority of viewers watched the Spring Festival Gala on screen.

So for the viewers outside the screen, it makes no difference whether it's lip-syncing, playing a cassette tape, or a live performance.

"That's good, that's good!"

Upon hearing Lü Ming's answer, Feng Xiaogang felt a huge weight lifted from his shoulders.

Feng Xiaogang was afraid that Lü Ming would be like those self-proclaimed artists who insisted on adhering to some artistic pursuit, and in that case, there was nothing they could do.

Fortunately, Lü Ming was very considerate and didn't insist on singing live, which instantly dispelled Feng Xiaogang and the others' worries.

What a good child!
Given Lü Ming's considerate nature, how could he possibly be the madman and bad guy that Pei Siqian and the others described?

During this time, Feng Xiaogang also heard a lot of news and rumors about Lü Ming in the entertainment industry, and instinctively he didn't have much affection for Lü Ming.

However, after talking with Lü Ming, Feng Xiaogang's attitude towards Lü Ming has become much better, and he even seems to want to treat Lü Ming as his own nephew or junior.

After talking with Lü Ming, Feng Xiaogang immediately called all the directors of the Spring Festival Gala program to the conference room again to hold a meeting.

When the members of the directing team received the news that Feng Xiaogang was holding a meeting, they knew that Feng Xiaogang must have made a decision, and they all rushed over.

"What do you say, Lao Zheng?"

When they arrived at the conference room, one of them asked the guy named Lao Zheng, who had previously opposed Lü Ming's participation in the Spring Festival Gala.

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems!"

"I've already found out that Lu Ming made quite a few demands of Director Feng, which greatly displeased Director Feng!"

"In the end, Lü Ming and Director Feng reached an agreement: Lü Ming promised to create a new song that was no less than 'Ode to Young China.' If he met the requirements, Director Feng would agree to Lü Ming's conditions; if he didn't, then Director Feng wouldn't invite Lü Ming!"

Do you think Lü Ming can create a new song that's no less impressive than "Ode to Young China" in just a few days?

Old Zheng touched his slightly thinning head and said nonchalantly.

It seems there's no problem with him receiving the money from Huayue.

This slightly balding Mr. Zheng is considered a veteran in the entertainment industry, and he simply couldn't believe that Lü Ming could create a new song that was no less impressive than "Ode to Young China" in such a short time.

Rather than saying that the deal between Lü Ming and Director Feng was a bet, it would be more accurate to say that it was a way out left for each other.

"Oh, I see!"

The person who asked Old Zheng smiled after hearing this, and his thoughts were similar to Old Zheng's.

Soon, after most of the directors had arrived, Feng Xiaogang pushed open the door and walked in.

After glancing around at the members of the Spring Festival Gala directing team, he gave an order in a commanding tone, directly cutting off Wu Qian and Li Changfeng's choral song performance and replacing it with a solo by Lü Ming.

"This is my decision, and I will take full responsibility for any problems that arise!"

"I will submit the latest Spring Festival Gala program list to them later!"

Looking down at the somewhat noisy environment, Feng Xiaogang waved the newly produced Spring Festival Gala program schedule in his hand and said very seriously. (End of this chapter)
