Chapter 191 Spring Festival Gala (Part 1)
Although Zhang Yi has a calm temperament and is elegant and has the air of a martial arts practitioner. After all, he is not very old. For Director Huang, it is inevitable that he will be surprised.
He had heard a lot about Zhang Yi, especially his achievements in movies, but he never expected that he would be a person at such a young age.
When he saw Zhang Yi and Minister Huang's secretary coming, he thought they were relatives of some high-ranking official. The female singer walked through the back door and came in to participate, which must have been no better. So he didn't pay attention to it.
But he didn't expect that the person who came to his door was actually a big shot. Director Luo Wen and Wang Mingquan Huang knew that he was a very famous Hong Kong singer. But just now he saw the respect they had for the young man.
Yes, it is respect. That respect is not because of status or money, but because of ability.
For a young man under 20 to have such a career, it would be unacceptable if others don’t respect him.
"Director Huang may not know it yet, but Mr. Zhang is not just a simple film director. He is now the holder of the record for the highest album sales in Southeast Asia. Moreover, his first album broke the record for the highest album sales in Southeast Asia. Not long ago, he was the record holder for the highest album sales in Southeast Asia.
The second record has once again broken the record of the first record. I believe that no one can break that record except himself." Wang Mingquan smiled and said.
"Really?" Director Huang asked with some shock and joy.
"Of course, and he is also a famous songwriter. All the songs on his records are written and composed by himself." Luo Wen said with a smile, "He is also a famous best-selling novel writer."
"He is a legend in Hong Kong. If Director Huang can invite him to perform on stage, it is estimated that this Spring Festival Gala will become an eternal classic." Wang Mingquan said with a smile.
However, after being pulled by Na Luowen, she immediately reacted and the smile on her face solidified instantly. She naturally knew that Zhang Yi's current status would not make it easy for him to perform on stage. If he didn't want to, wouldn't he be talking too much?
Zhang Yi accompanied Zhou Huimin to the backstage. At this time, CCTV was obviously not as wealthy as it would be in the future, or in other words, his wealth had not yet been used on the stage. The stage was a bit crude, and the rest area was naturally the same. Moreover, there was no solitary space.
A dressing room or something.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhou, Miss Zhou, can you sign your names for me?"
As soon as Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin sat down, two people came over and said to Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi excitedly.
"Okay! From your accent, you're not from Mainland China." Zhang Yi smiled and took a notebook and pen from the person.
"I came from Taiwan and am the host of this Spring Festival Gala. My name is Zhu Wanyi." The man smiled and said.
"My name is Banban, and I'm from Hong Kong. Don't forget that you still have mine." The person next to Zhu Wanyi said immediately. However, he spoke in Cantonese.
Zhang Yi smiled, handed the signed notebook to Zhou Huimin, then took the stained notebook and signed his name, then handed the notebook and pen to Zhou Huimin at the same time.
"Mr. Zhang, do you two also want to perform on stage? Why are you not on the program list we got?" Zhu Wanyi took the notebook signed by Zhou Huimin. She did not leave, but asked Zhang Yi and the two
road.
"Xiao Min has a show, but it's just a temporary one. I was just invited to watch the Spring Festival Gala." Zhang Yi smiled and said.
"Hey! That's such a pity. I have never heard Mr. Zhang sing live. I like all of Mr. Zhang's songs. Especially "Love Is You and Me" which I sang with Miss Zhou!" Zhu Wanyi said with some regret.
"I like "Exaggerated", "Red Sun" and "About Winter", and I seem to like them all." Banban continued.
"Thank you!" Zhang Yi smiled. He didn't know what to say, so he just said these two words.
"Mr. Zhang!" Director Huang came over with a smile on his face. He was very enthusiastic, which was obviously different from before.
"Director Huang! Is it Xiao Min's turn to rehearse?" Zhang Yi looked at Director Huang and said with a smile.
"Haha! No." Director Huang didn't know how to speak for a moment and hesitated.
"If you have anything to do with Director Huang, tell me directly." Zhang Yi glanced at Director Huang, then smiled and said.
"I just heard from Mr. Luo and Ms. Wang that Mr. Zhang's achievements in singing are extremely impressive, so I would like to invite Mr. Zhang to come on stage and sing two songs, or even one." Director Huang then said hesitantly.
.
Zhang Yi looked at Director Huang, then at Zhou Huimin, then smiled and said: "Okay. I will sing one song, Xiao Min will sing another song, and we will sing another song together. Do you think it will work? However,
I hope it can be arranged a little earlier."
The directors of the Spring Festival Gala at this time were not as awesome as later generations when it came to artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Even the directors of the previous two years received a lot of invitations. It was no different from asking for invitations.
This is completely reversed from the later generations of artists who go to the Spring Festival Gala and beg the director. Moreover, Zhang Yi's identity is somewhat different. After all, he is a viewing guest invited by Minister Huang of the Ministry of Culture, not a performing guest. He cannot be forced.
.
"No problem, no problem at all. I'll make arrangements right away." Upon hearing this, Director Huang was a little surprised and excited.
"Ayi, which song are you going to sing? Which song should we sing together?" Zhou Huimin asked immediately after Director Huang left. Zhu Wanyi and Banban also looked at Zhang Yi expectantly.
"Let me sing "Serve the Country with Loyalty", this song may be more suitable. As for our duet, let's sing "Love Is You and Me"!" Zhang Yi said with a smile.
The rehearsal naturally went smoothly. Zhang Yi sang a song and duet with Zhou Huimin, while Zhou Huimin sang another song "I Wish You Peace" alone.
Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi's program was arranged for the third appearance, and the first one was a Peking Opera performance, and the second one was a musical instrument performance.
On New Year's Eve, many leaders came to the Spring Festival Gala studio hall, and the Vice Minister of Culture who invited Zhang Yi to watch was naturally present in person.
The first two programs were relatively traditional, especially the Peking Opera, which was definitely more popular than the songs at this time. Naturally, there was a burst of applause and cheers from the audience. The instrumental performance was relatively weaker.
point.
"Now, Mr. Zhang Yi from Hong Kong is here to bring us the song "Serve the Country with Loyalty"! Mr. Zhang Yi is not only a famous songwriter, singer, and best-selling author in Hong Kong, but also a famous screenwriter and director. He wrote and directed "
"Ip Man" I believe everyone will be familiar with it, so now please enjoy the song brought to us by Mr. Zhang Yi."
The host's introduction to Zhang Yi was different from others, but it was undoubtedly explosive. Not only the audience in front of the TV was immediately attracted, but also everyone in the studio was attracted.
Zhang Yi was smiling backstage, so maybe after the Spring Festival Gala, he will become the person who has the most influence on mainland audiences. Moreover, Zhou Huimin will also become a household name in education. When "Myth" is released in mainland China,
That will definitely have a big effect.
This is why Zhang Yi asked Zhou Huimin to perform on stage and why he did not refuse the invitation.
The music started playing and Zhang Yi walked slowly towards the stage.
These days, except for the costumes in dramas, the rest are not as particular as those of later generations. Zhang Yi dressed as usual, wearing a Tang suit, wearing a thousand-layer bottom, and with an elegant temperament, he was handsome and calm.
However, countless viewers at the scene were stunned, and the audience in front of the TV were also stunned. Because Zhang Yi was too young, too young to be combined with the introduction just now.
A famous songwriter, singer, best-selling novel writer, screenwriter, and director. Moreover, "Ip Man", the movie that caused a craze in mainland China, was actually written and directed by this young man.
Maybe, there are still many people who don't know the importance of screenwriters and directors to a movie, but everyone knows that this young man is very awesome and powerful.
Zhang Yi didn't care about the shock of everyone, but sang:
Wolf smoke rises, the country looks north
The dragon rides on the curly horse, and the sword is as sharp as frost.
My heart is like the vast water of the Yellow River
Who can resist in twenty years?
Hateful and mad, the sword is directed towards
How many loyal brothers and sisters are buried in a foreign country?
He Xibai died to repay his homeland
...
This song has the theme of serving the motherland, and Zhang Yi sang it very masculinely. The audience, whether they were in person or in front of the TV, recovered from the incredible shock and were so intoxicated by it.
