Questions, criticisms, and quarrels are basically invisible at the moment. First, it has been a long time, and everyone is tired of questioning. Second, this is exactly the charm of the Spring Festival, which can change the mood of the Chinese people. , mentality of the day, many people cursed and were extremely dissatisfied with Ning Cheng, a person who had no party experience, directing the Spring Festival Gala. All the tempers are gone.

Let's watch quietly and see what Ning Sheng can do with the Spring Festival Gala.Many people have even silently prepared all kinds of jokes in their hearts!

There is still time until the Spring Festival Gala starts: ten hours—eight hours—six hours—
Studio [-] of Imperial TV Station.

As the time draws near, the pressure on the Spring Festival Gala director team is also increasing.

For a person like Lao Wu who was also working in the Spring Festival Gala for the first time, he acted like no one was allowed to enter in the morning. Everyone could see that he was very nervous.

Some other people are not much better, even those who have traveled with Ning Cheng and experienced countless turbulent waves, they still can't bear the pressure, this is not making a movie, if you don't make a good film, fans scold a few words, that's all up!
This is the Spring Festival Gala, this is a live broadcast, with global attention, Chinese people all over the world are watching them!
Even for a great director like Ning Sheng, it's inevitable that he will be a little nervous and nervous. Of course, as the chief director, he won't let people see it!This point, he has already practiced it when he was a director!
Therefore, everyone looked at Ning Sheng from time to time, because he was the calmest person here, and everyone seemed to feel at ease when they saw his calm appearance. This can be regarded as his years of experience as a director. As a project The leader, you have to be able to hold back the formation.

Ning Cheng looked at everyone, smiled and comforted him: "Old Wu, you are also an old man who has traveled all over the world, why are you so nervous?"

Old Wu made a movement of wiping his sweat, and said with a smile, "I can't help it, I just can't help being nervous! I'm afraid of what happens—what should I do if something happens, this is a live broadcast, and there is no Time allows you to slowly do post-production and editing!"

Ning Cheng laughed and said, "We have done everything that needs to be done, and we have prepared everything that needs to be prepared. If there is a power outage, a building collapse, or a tsunami, that is out of our control." , I happened to see the deputy director of the Spring Festival Gala of a TV station sitting there calmly, as if he was still eating, Ning Cheng couldn't help pointing at him in admiration, "Look at him, after all, he is an old man who has participated in three Spring Festival Gala. Not chaotic, but also know to replenish energy and eat some food in advance, we young people have to learn from others, this is called the demeanor of a general!"

However, the assistant director heard someone calling his name, so he turned around in astonishment and asked, "Who called me?"

Ning Cheng smiled and said, "What are you eating, let's replenish energy for everyone!"

The assistant director smiled and said, "This is a loving dinner prepared by my wife. If you want to eat it, you can order it yourself!"

A group of people booed immediately, they were really caught off guard by this sudden show of affection!
But amidst everyone's joking and joking, the tense atmosphere subconsciously eased a lot!
-
There are still five hours left before the Spring Festival Gala begins.

In the main control room, there are monitoring screens all around.Ning Sheng sits in it and directs the overall situation.

"Nine machine?"

"Director, I'm here."

"The camera is off, a little to the left."

"Ok."

"Stage, stage talk back!"

"Director, I'm here."

"Did you replace the screen that went wrong yesterday?"

"It has been replaced with a new one, and I personally watched them change it."

"One last confirmation."

"Roger that!"

All departments are doing final debugging!
-
There are four hours left before the Spring Festival Gala begins.

The leaders of the Spring Festival Gala work group have arrived. Looking at their faces, none of them are relaxed. They are all tense. It is about time to check the results of this year’s Spring Festival Gala. They are also nervous. The pressure on their shoulders made them breathless. This feeling was not so strong before, but as the countdown to the Spring Festival Gala began, the feeling of worrying about gains and losses in their hearts became more and more serious.

"Director Ning, how are your preparations going?"

"It's all ready."

"Is there any problem?"

"Anyway, I have done everything I can. If there is an emergency, it is enough to deal with it urgently. After all, it is a live broadcast, and it is impossible to be perfect."

"This is the Spring Festival Gala, my genius Ning, there must be no accidents."

"That's right, Director Ning, tell us the truth. Can the ratings be stabilized this time?"

Everyone asked me one sentence at a time, worried.

Ning Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry everyone, it won't be a problem to stabilize the previous ratings!"

The leaders heard this, but they couldn't be happier. Although he asked this question, the answer he wanted to hear was not like this. What they wanted to hear was that Ning Cheng told them with confidence that the ratings of this year's Spring Festival Gala would definitely be higher. Create a new viewing miracle!

When they made such a big determination to invite him here, they had no other choice but to be a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and they also liked Ning Cheng's ability to create miracles repeatedly!

In recent years, the ratings of the Spring Festival Gala have been like a roller coaster that has reached a downward spiral. It is getting lower and lower every year, and it is plummeting, and it cannot be held back.

The year before last: 32%
The previous year: 25%
Last year: 19%
In just three years, from above 30.00%, it directly fell below 20.00%, which directly created the lowest point in history since the Spring Festival Gala started!

If it falls further, it will really be impossible to do business. The above has already issued a task. The ratings of this year's Spring Festival Gala must be stabilized. If the ratings can be brought back to 20.00%, the task will be barely completed.Then if they want to get rewards, they naturally have to show higher ratings, 20.00% to 30.00, [-]%. They naturally expect the higher the better. They came here to ask Ning Sheng, and they also wanted to hear something to boost morale and let them Answer with confidence, but now Ning Cheng's answer is only to stabilize the declining ratings. The leaders looked at each other, but there was nothing to say. They could only secretly hope that this talented director who has been praised by the whole country can create another glories!
-
There are still three hours before the Spring Festival Gala starts, and the backstage is full of performers.

"Can I wear makeup?"

"It's too early, wait!"

"Hey, sister, where are my clothes? I put them here just now?"

"Look in the closet? Don't leave your clothes in disorder. If you can't find them in a while, see how I will clean up for you!"

"Found it! Oh, I was scared to death!"

"Brother, where's my line? Give me another look, I kind of forgot the line."

"Xiao Jiang, don't be nervous! There is time before the distance, don't worry!"

"How can you not be nervous? If the performance fails, the unit leader will be furious!"

"Then shall we rehearse again?"

"Okay! Come—"

Some people went to the toilet nervously, some paced back and forth to adjust their breathing, and some sneaked out to smoke. In short, everyone was using their own methods to adjust their mentality before the performance.

Some people here are frequent visitors of the Spring Festival Gala, such as Zhang Lirong, Zhao Benshan, and Song Zuying. They are very stable, especially Song Zuying. With experience, they can naturally hold their breath, but others are different. Most of the actors in it are the first time to appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. The suffocating pressure and tension are naturally needless to say.

Ning Cheng came backstage at this time, cheering them up one by one.

"Xiao Taili, Wang Yang, how are you doing, are you okay?"

"Director Ning, we are fine, but we are a little nervous. But your song is so well written, we will definitely sing it for you!"

"It's not for me, it's for all the fathers and audiences across the country!"

"Hey, yes, that's what you said!"

"Where's Zhao Xiaolei?"

"I'm here, Director Ning, are you looking for me?"

"It's okay, I'll come over and have a look. I heard you went to the toilet more than a dozen times?"

"Ah, I'm just a little nervous."

"You have to hold back when you're on stage, hold it for 3 minutes, and leave the stage after singing, don't forget that your folk friends are watching you in front of the TV!"

Talked to some people on the song show, originally wanted to see Ding Xuan and Ning Tong, but they didn't know where to go, and then their assistant said that they went out together to watch other people's excitement, thinking of those two people People are also people who have attended the Spring Festival Gala two or three times, so I don't care anymore!

Then Ning Sheng found Zhang Lirong's team again.

"Mr. Zhang, are you still rehearsing?"

"Well, go through it twice, or I won't worry."

"Everyone, let's take a break. I don't recommend you to practice any more. Otherwise, the novelty will be gone and you will be annoyed. Then you won't be able to show the effect of the show. You were already very good during the rehearsal, so you don't need to be proficient. Listen to me, save your strength and get on stage!"

"Okay, you are the director, listen to you."

Finally, Ning Sheng found the deaf-mute dance team.

Yang Doudou is talking dumb words with the girls, as if to encourage them.

Ning Cheng came over, "Teacher Yang, how is it going?"

Yang Doudou turned around and saw Ning Sheng saying, "Ah, it's Director Ning. The children are a little nervous about this, but don't worry, we will definitely complete the task and won't let you off the hook."

Ning Cheng nodded, looked at the girls, suddenly raised his hand, gestured a few times, paused, thought for a while, and then gestured a few more times.

Everyone was taken aback!Sign Language?

The first sentence is: come on.

The second sentence is: You are the best! .

Seeing their expressions, Ning Cheng couldn't help being a little embarrassed, "It's not standard, is it? I just learned from others temporarily."

Yang Doudou shook his head vigorously, "No, standard, special standard!"

In order to encourage them, he, the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala, is so busy that he almost has no time to sleep, so he actually learns sign language for them?

The girls were very touched. The original tension was dispelled by this touch, and their hearts were warmed, and they felt at ease!
-
With two hours left before the start of the Spring Festival Gala, spectators who had obtained tickets began to enter and take their seats.

"Wow, so big?"

"The stage has changed again? I just don't know how the show is. Anyway, the stage effect is getting better every year!"

"Yeah, Ning Sheng is here this year, look forward to it, I hope there will be a wonderful show!"

The ages of these audiences range from old to young, and their occupations range from workers, teachers, and white-collar workers to all walks of life. This is like a different kind of conference site, but they don’t need to be nervous or uneasy at this conference, they just need to relax and enjoy That's it!
-
There is still an hour left before the Spring Festival Gala starts.

At Ning Sheng's house, Ding Xuan's parents and Ning Sheng's parents were sitting on the sofa, while Emma looked after the two children sitting on the carpet in front.

Xinxin played with toys for a while, then threw herself into Emma's arms and asked, "Ma Ma, when will Papa come back?"

Emma smiled and said, "Papa won't come back until later, but Papa has a special gift for you today!"

"Really? What is it? Is it a panda doll?" Xinxin asked happily.

Emma pointed at the TV with a smile and said, "The Spring Festival Gala will be the most special gift from Papa!"

"Spring Festival Gala? What is Spring Festival Gala?" Xinxin looked at the TV wonderingly, then looked at Emma.

Emma explained with a smile, "The Spring Festival Gala is a program that many people perform together, just like you perform in kindergarten. After a while, there will be various programs that Papa prepares for you on TV. Let's watch together, okay? "

Xinxin still didn't fully understand what was going on in the Spring Festival Gala, but when she heard that it was a gift prepared by Papa for her, Xinxin nodded happily, and the resentment in her heart for not coming back to accompany her for so long disappeared instantly. , happily shouting there, "I want to watch the Spring Festival Gala, I want to watch the Spring Festival Gala that Papa gave me!"
-
There are still a few minutes left before the start of the Spring Festival Gala, and all the staff are fully focused.

All staff members stand at their posts.

Ning Cheng had returned to the main control room a long time ago, watching the second hand beating one after another, his heart also fluctuated along with the thumping, he took a deep breath and pressed it, and he felt better.

Finally this moment!
He doesn't know if everyone will like these shows as much as in another time and space, but this is the best Spring Festival Gala he can do, and it is also the best gift he gives to all Chinese people in the world this Spring Festival!

Ning Cheng looked at the time, "Every department is ready!"

"Countdown!"

"five!"

"Four!"

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

"Opening, music!"

On the TV, the screen turned and the camera came to the main stage!

The sound of music, singing and dancing suddenly exploded!

Here come the dancers!

The Spring Festival Gala has officially begun!
This is the first program of the entire Spring Festival Gala, and it is also the most difficult program of the entire Spring Festival Gala. The importance of the opening dance is self-evident, but it is also very difficult to do, dancing?Sing?Invite a group of celebrities to walk out?After so many years of the Spring Festival Gala, I don’t know how many times it has been used by others, and it has completely failed to arouse the interest of the audience, so Ning Sheng selected a song and dance show with the largest scene and the best evaluation from the previous Spring Festival Gala in another time and space. !
At the beginning, everyone didn't feel anything, it seemed like the previous opening dance, a bunch of noisy people, but in fact, everyone didn't see anything clearly, just watched the fun!

But all of a sudden, the whole stage is full of spring, and fresh flowers bloom on the stage. On the big screen, on the floor, in the air, there is a sea of ​​flowers everywhere, without dead ends. The 3D light and shadow effect seems to be Blossoming like real flowers!
The scorching sun in summer, the fallen leaves in autumn, and the snowflakes in winter!
With the dancing of the dancers on the stage, the stage seems to speed up the transition of the four seasons, making people seem to see dancers with different characteristics under the four seasons!And every audience in front of the TV is like sitting in a movie theater and watching a blockbuster with special effects, and the shocking voice rang out in front of the TVs of thousands of households!
