But except for Han Sen, no one else found it too strange. After all, Zhang Liping herself hosted a program in the legal column.

At the end of the interview, Zhang Liping asked with a smile: "I heard that in addition to "Compendium of Materia Medica" tonight, the song "Human World" performed by A Qi tonight was also written and composed by Han Sen yourself?"

Han Sen nodded: "Yes."

"Well, Hansen, you are really a leader in the Chinese music scene. It is rare that someone can have two programs under your name appear on the Spring Festival Gala stage at the same Spring Festival Gala."

At this time, a voice came from the headset. Zhang Liping looked at the time and said with a smile: "It's getting late, there is less than an hour left before the Spring Festival Gala starts, so I wish you all a smooth performance!"

Han Sen finally breathed a sigh of relief. After smiling and waving to the camera, he finally saw the host off.

As soon as Zhang Liping walked out of the lounge, she heard the praise of deputy director Zhou Weiguo coming from the headset: "Not bad, not bad, Liping. In just these 20 minutes of interview time, the popularity is unprecedented, and the ratings are comparable to the official opening of the Spring Festival Gala."

"

"Really?" Zhang Liping was shocked and asked in disbelief.

The ratings for the entire Spring Festival Gala were above 40%. If the interview just now had 40%, it would definitely be the most glorious moment in Zhang Liping's career.

"real!"

Soon, it was approaching eight o'clock.

Director Ao Yan personally came backstage, shook hands with the performers one by one, and encouraged each other.

According to the rehearsal process, Han Sen came on the stage approximately 32 minutes into the Spring Festival Gala.

It will be the climax of the party, with a martial arts performance from Songshan Shaolin Temple and a sketch column by national sketch artist Zhao Jingshan.

This period is also the golden time of the entire Spring Festival Gala.

At this time, in addition to the nearly 1,000 spectators and performers at the scene, the number of viewers watching outside the venue through multiple terminals and channels such as TV, the Internet, and social media has exceeded one billion.

This data is already insurmountable for all programs at home and abroad, but for the Spring Festival Gala, it is not worth mentioning.

After all, last year, the number of viewers watching the Spring Festival Gala at home and abroad reached a peak of 1.73 billion.

But now, the reason why there are only one billion people is because the Spring Festival Gala has not officially started yet.

This year's Spring Festival Gala will be centered on Hall 1 and join hands with four sub-venues to highlight Chinese elements, national symbols, regional culture, and the style of a great country.

In the eyes of many people at home and abroad, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala is a cultural symbol and a business card for the external promotion and dissemination of Chinese culture. This business card has become increasingly useful in the past ten years.

Regardless of whether we admit it or not, China has reached the top of the world in economic, military, cultural and other aspects with its undisputed strength.

China's Spring Festival Gala naturally attracts the attention of global audiences.

Time passed quickly.

Eight o'clock.

The world's largest, most watched, highest-rated, and most influential variety show - the 2009 Spring Festival Gala, has officially begun.

The first thing to come on stage was a group of "cow babies" dressed in jubilant clothes.

The children waved colorful ribbons and stepped onto the stage happily.

For China, 2009 is the Year of the Ox, so naturally there will be cultural elements related to the Ox.

Soon, amid the festive music and singing, representatives of various ethnic groups came on stage together, carrying flower baskets and throwing candies and other snacks to the hundreds of guests present.

Immediately afterwards, amid jubilant applause, Zong Qingzhen and four other singers took the stage together and sang the song "Good Luck in the Year of the Ox" to unveil the Spring Festival Gala.

"Great! Zong Qingzhen came on stage so quickly!"

"Uh, Zong Qingzhen is over! So soon?"

At the end of the opening program, five famous CCTV hosts, both men and women, dressed in grand formal attires, walked onto the stage together.

"Friends in the audience and in front of the TV, Happy Spring! Festival!"

“This is the live broadcast of CCTV’s 2009 Spring Festival Gala!”

"As we bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, we must first pay our respects to our brothers and sisters of all ethnic groups across the country——"

"Happy New Year!"

…

…

Accompanied by singing and dancing performances, the entire land of China fell into an atmosphere of joy.

After dinner, every household would sit in front of the TV, eating melon seeds and chewing snacks.

Young people took out their mobile phones and complained about the garbage of the Spring Festival Gala program on Weibo.

While excitedly opening the WeChat shake app, I shook the red envelope crazily——

"Ding! Congratulations on winning a red envelope of 5.9 yuan from China Life Insurance."

"Ding! Congratulations on winning the red envelope of 1.7 yuan from Lao Gan Daddy Group."

"Ding! Congratulations..."

Excellent Spring Festival Gala programs are advancing as time goes by.

Soon, the Eighteen Arhats from the Songshan Shaolin Temple came on stage, presenting a martial arts performance that combined boxing, stick techniques, and formations for the global audience.

At the same time, director Ao Yan's voice came from backstage, throughout the corridors, and in the lounge.

"The next unit, "Compendium of Materia Medica" is ready!"
Chapter completed!
