The rise of the country from the entertainment industry

Chapter 214 Director Feng's Courage

When the singing ended, Feng Ligang and several Spring Festival Gala directors looked at each other.

"This..." One of the person in charge showed hesitation, "I feel that the style doesn't match the Spring Festival Gala."

"Of course, both songs are good songs."

Fearing that some people would misunderstand, he added another sentence.

The person in charge is the oldest among several people, and his thinking is naturally conservative.

The two songs that Jiang Li sent to them are both hip-hop-style national songs.

Several other persons in charge also showed embarrassing expressions.

If it was a song like "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Dongfeng Po", they would definitely dare not have any opinions.

But in the Spring Festival Gala in Huaguo, American hip-hop and rap pop were used to sing the national style, and the language was still so witty and humorous. Is there anything wrong?
Feng Ligang shook his head, pointed to one of the songs, and asked meaningfully: "Don't worry about the style, please take a closer look at the lyrics of this song."

Hearing the words, the rest of the people in charge frowned and looked over.

Nuxychia, Cassia, Xanthium, Xanthogonia, Bitter Bean, Toosendan...

Why are there so many Chinese medicine names?

I feel a bit suspected of making up a mess for the sake of rhyme.

Let me adjust a folk prescription to treat your internal injuries...

Uh-huh?

Several people all stared wide-eyed.

"Traditional Chinese medicine is one of the traditional cultures that best represent Chinese civilization. It has a very long history. I think Jiang Li is trying to express a kind of national spirit, satirizing those who worship foreigners and tell them that the culture of China is by no means Foreign countries." Feng Ligang laughed.

The Chinese civilization has evolved for thousands of years, and has stood on top of the world countless times. The traditional culture that was once proud of is as numerous as the vast stars and the sands of the Ganges, but it has gradually lost its brilliance under the impact of imported cultures.

And judging from the works released by Yanhuang so far.

Whether it is the original "Hair Like Snow", the "Three Ancients and Three New" system proposed, or the "East Wind Breaking", "Blue and White Porcelain" some time ago, and even the national style heavy metal rock song "Dream Back to Tang Dynasty".

And "Chapter 3 of the Night" and "In the Name of the Father", which are less talented and less learned, have also achieved the localization of Western song styles, which can be said to have achieved the ultimate in localization today.

These examples all show that Yanhuang adhered to the ideal of carrying forward the traditional Chinese culture from the beginning to the end.

"The tongue-twister singing method of another song is also very interesting. It's not a bad idea to try a new style during the Spring Festival Gala. Then rehearse and see the effect. If it doesn't suit, there is still time to change to "Blue and White Porcelain."

Feng Ligang made a final decision.

This director of the same generation as Zhu Long is the first director in China to direct the Spring Festival Gala twice.

As the "Father of Lunar New Year Films" in Huaguo, he brought the genre of "Lunar New Year Films" released in special schedules into the public's field of vision.

He has a unique insight into the lives of the common people and the psychological needs of all walks of life. He writes comically about urban public life and grasps the aesthetic psychology of movie audiences with ease.

He is good at telling the stories of little people in a playful way. While capturing the mainstream entertainment psychology of the public, his works can also reflect the good and evil of human nature. With his humor and ridicule from the perspective of civilians, he achieves the effect of both refined and popular tastes. Based on his growth background and social experience, he won the audience's recognition with a comedy-style warmth philosophy.

Logically speaking, it would be perfect for him to direct the Spring Festival Gala.

But to be honest, Feng Ligang really doesn't want to be the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala anymore.

A few years ago, every New Year's Eve, every household would sit in front of the TV and watch the Spring Festival Gala happily.

Many songs, sketches and the like have repeatedly become gods and become classics.

It even made many grassroots actors become popular overnight.

But now?

It hasn't been a year without being scolded!
The explosion of short videos has led to the emergence of many marketing accounts that pursue popularity.

They sit in front of the TV on time every year, complaining about the Spring Festival Gala with critical eyes and sharp language.

Making complaints about the Spring Festival Gala is almost becoming a kind of "correctness".

Every year in the Spring Festival Gala, pulling the hips every year has almost become the consensus of the broad masses of the people.

But the purpose of the Spring Festival Gala is not to make everyone feel the best and most interesting.

It is to be a file that allows all people based on the national identity of "Huaxia nation" to complete the construction of a collective consciousness.

If you think of Huaguo as a company, the Spring Festival Gala is obviously a group building that everyone has to do.

In team building, individual happiness is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is to enhance mutual understanding, find the greatest common divisor of all small groups, and ultimately make the team more cohesive and competitive.

This is where the conflict between the production team and the audience lies.

Especially the language programs that have received the most attention, in addition to being boring, boring, and boring, they are constantly working from beginning to end.

Just like the annual college entrance examination, someone has already guessed what will be performed in the Spring Festival Gala before the Spring Festival Gala starts.

The burden of most of the works is very blunt, and there is a feeling of forced laughter.

Moreover, the plot either turns too much and is unnatural, or the theme is superficial, or even both kinds of problems exist. Many works can already guess the end after seeing the beginning.

This is no longer a comedy, but a punishment. For those watching, every second is suffering.

The last time Feng Ligang directed the Spring Festival Gala, he had already worked hard enough.

I even read many comments from netizens on the previous Spring Festival Gala on the Internet.

and improved based on this.

Although the final word-of-mouth was better than the previous ones, it was still unavoidable to be complained by netizens.

This made Feng Ligang, who was full of confidence, extremely depressed.

No wonder those old friends who directed the Spring Festival Gala always looked at him with sympathy.

It turned out that the final outcome had been expected.

It is indeed an honor to direct the Spring Festival Gala.

But as one of the best directors in the country, does he still need honor to prove himself?
For those who celebrate the New Year, they are too old to go home for the New Year's Eve dinner, and they have to be busy all the time.

I have been busy all New Year's Eve, and I have to be complained by netizens on the first day of the new year.

The excitement of the New Year is gone!

Therefore, Feng Ligang's thinking now is very simple.

To make the reputation of the Spring Festival Gala better, and to make the audience less scolding.

Then we must break the conventional thinking, be bold and innovative, and come up with a few more novel works!

This is also the reason why Feng Ligang directly rejected all opinions and chose to support Jiang Li's two songs.

Feng Ligang told Jiang Li directly that he would be given golden time.

And the stage is chosen by him, if you want to sing alone, then sing alone, if you want to sing in duet, then sing in duet.

You know, singing solo in the Spring Festival Gala is top-notch treatment.

Ordinary people are completely ineligible to enjoy such benefits.

This is not only Feng Ligang's courage, but also his trust in Jiang Li, the founder of the new national style.
