The 2024 Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Dragon is in full swing, and many stars have appeared, adding a touch of color to the whole event. At the rehearsal scene, some surprising moments and some slightly regretful episodes attracted the audience's attention.
Every December, the Spring Festival Gala has become a hot news in the entertainment industry. The eyes of the national audience are on the door of the CCTV building, speculating which star will be invited to the rehearsal. According to the lineup, you can also evaluate the level of the program at a preliminary level.
Although everyone has some heated discussions every year, this is our dinner partner on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve reunion, and it is an indispensable part of the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. Especially this year, the theme of the Spring Festival Gala and the director's official announcement are slightly slower than in previous years, which makes the pace of rehearsals more tight.
In the past few days, the Spring Festival Gala held its first rehearsal, and many stars appeared at the gate of CCTV. Judging from the cast of the rehearsal, it seems that the review of the language programs of the Spring Festival Gala has quietly begun. In the rehearsal that day, the first thing to be noticed was the actor Zhang Ruonan.
Her appearance was very low-key, with light makeup and only a small assistant by her side. Zhang Ruonan can be described as a newcomer to the Spring Festival Gala, this is her first time participating in rehearsals, and we can't be sure which category of performance she will participate in. But judging from the fact that most actors got involved in sketch performances last year, it is very likely that she will participate in language programs.
Zhang Ruonan's film and television works are mainly youth dramas, and her appearance also belongs to the pure type, which looks quite pleasing to the eye. But how well it will perform in comedy is still unknown.
The second person to appear is Jia Bing, an old face we are familiar with.
In recent years, he has been a frequent guest of the Spring Festival Gala and is one of the most popular comedians in the Spring Festival Gala in recent years.
Especially in 2020, he shouldered a heavy responsibility, and the "Wind and Snow Dumpling Love" performed together with several film and television actors made the audience feel a little limited. In this sketch, dumplings appear more than 40 times, and have been complained by netizens for many years. Even, "making dumplings" has now become synonymous with the happy ending of the Spring Festival Gala, and has been hotly discussed by netizens.
However, fortunately, this year Jia Bing ushered in many new turnarounds. First of all, in the hit drama "Hurricane", he played the role of a villain with a comedic effect, which gave people a refreshing feeling. This changed the audience's impression of him.
Secondly, in the variety show "Let's Go Now" co-recorded with Shen Teng, although the overall program effect was unsatisfactory, Jia Bing showed superb cooking skills. His knife skills and techniques are up to professional standards, and he can even make two dishes at the same time, which amazes the audience. In comparison, Huang Lei's flattering cooking skills pale, and Jia Bing won the favor of more audiences.
is only one wonderful work that attracts attention, and Jia Bing is expected to firmly occupy his position in the Spring Festival Gala. At the gate of CCTV, Jia Bing also had an unexpected encounter with his old acquaintance Ma Xudong. When the two were greeting, he also touched each other's cheeks affectionately.
Ma Xudong has long been a familiar name to the audience. At the Annual Comedy Contest, a series of comedy works were also created. However, like Jia Bing, once he appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, he didn't seem to be adaptable.
Last year, Ma Xudong was severely criticized for his first appearance on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. His collaboration with Sun Qian, Yu Zhen, Zhang Jianing, and Bai Yufan in "First Sight Photo Studio" set a new record for a language program that bored the audience. Although it caused a sensation, it was also jokingly called "out of the play".
Since last year, the criticism has continued until now. In the comment area, waves of complaints still poured in, attracting many people who had never been to watch this embarrassing scene.
Ma Xudong's reappearance also made many viewers worried, will there be a sequel to "First Sight Photo Studio"?Will he continue last year's embarrassment this year, or will he learn his lesson and show a more normal performance?This leaves a big question mark.
The next to appear was Jiang Shimeng. She is also a comedian who rose to prominence through the "Annual Comedy Contest". Previously, she had also appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala several times, but she did not impress us.
Due to the relatively small coffee slot, she usually plays an inconspicuous role in the sketches, playing the role of embellishment. For example, the sketch "Like You Like Me" with Xie Na, Xiao Zhan, Ju Jingyi, and Yang Di, although Xie Na played an important role, Jiang Shimeng's role was only one minute.
However, looking at Jiang Shimeng's works alone, whether it is from the short ** platform or the plot clips, they are full of jokes and evocative.
What kind of role Jiang Shimeng may play in her works this year is really curious!And when he appeared at the door of CCTV that day, Liu Tianchi, the performance director, also appeared. For viewers who have watched acting variety shows, she should be no stranger to her.
Liu Tianchi, as Nortel's performance instructor, his appearance has caused a lot of heated discussions. There was speculation that he might be in charge of the acting direction of the language project, which made the audience feel a little nervous.
It seems to be sending a message that there may be more performances of actors crossover in sketches this year. Mastering the rhythm of a comedy star is not something that can be done with the guidance of an acting teacher.
Everyone is talking about whether their program was confirmed, or did they not participate in the recording of this Spring Festival Gala at all?A Spring Festival Gala must always have a pillar, and judging from the sketches in recent years, Shen Teng and Ma Li can be regarded as the biggest laugh of the Spring Festival Gala. They didn't show up, which made the audience a little confused.
And Jia Ling and Zhang Xiaofei, the old partners, have always focused on homely and short life. They can create laughs without embarrassing them, and they are the best of the best. Jia Ling is willing to pretend to be ugly and old, and Zhang Xiaofei's stage outfit can become a hit every year, causing the Internet to swipe the screen. It was a shame that these two were absent last year, and this year is still highly anticipated.
This year's situation is still changeable, and Jia Ling's identity has increased to the level of director after "Hello, Li Huanying".
In this year's Spring Festival, she is likely to launch a new work "Hot and Hot" that has been polished for two years to meet the audience.
She not only needs to do the promotion of the movie, but also prepare for the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala at the same time, which makes her almost impossible to separate and difficult to cope.
Of course, in language programs, everyone is most looking forward to Zhao Benshan.
Over the years, it has been difficult for the sketch to touch the audience's laughter, which has made many people begin to miss the lively scene of the Spring Festival Gala when Zhao Benshan once appeared on stage.
Every time he finishes a sketch, it can cause every sentence to burst into laughter, and even continue to be popular for a whole year.
He became the focus of the finale, and the audience looked forward to his debut, once the sketch was finished, the sound of firecrackers outside was like exploding a pot, which was the real flavor of the New Year.
Although Zhao Benshan has not been active for many years, the comedy "The Legend of Magpie Knife Gate" launched this year still shows his ageless talent.
This has aroused the expectations of many audiences, who have speculated whether he will appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala again.
Although the new generation of comedians is also popular with many audiences, compared with Zhao Benshan, they still have a big gap and they have to continue to polish.
Although Shen Teng and Ma Li were loved by the audience at the beginning, it was not until they received Zhao Benshan's guidance that their "Help or Not" really reached the peak.
If Zhao Benshan is expected to appear again this year, it will definitely set off a ratings day boom.
Of course, every Spring Festival Gala, there are always wonderful performances of funny cross talk.
And the pair of veteran partners, Yue Yunpeng and Sun Yue, were suddenly absent during the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala. Recalling their performance of "My Changes" last year, Yue Yunpeng laughed constantly, coupled with the mediocre performance, which gave Yue Yunpeng's confidence a big blow.
In the cross talk tour this year, he also mentioned the unsatisfactory experience of the Spring Festival Gala from time to time, expressing his uneasiness about his performance. This has made many people speculate whether this year's Spring Festival Gala will have bold innovations and allow new forces to appear on the stage.
And when this year's variety shows are in full swing, many naturally funny stars are also highly recommended by netizens. For example, the team that has always advertised the "0713 Reemployment Men's Group" has a tacit understanding between several old friends, whether it is singing or a funny show, I believe they can bring surprises to the audience.
There is also the little martial artist who can create laughter for many years in the last show, and he can make the audience laugh non-stop as soon as he takes a cake.
In terms of quintessential programs, netizens also actively cheered for their favorite candidates. For example, the Yue Opera actors Chen Lijun and Li Yunxiao, who have accumulated popularity in a certain sound circle for several months, are very popular with young audiences, and even the full score answer sheet has been put out. How could the director team not take a quick look at it?
This is not only because the new generation of Yue Opera actors have their own traffic, but also to attract more young people to join the spread and love of traditional culture.
After all, the most important thing for language programs is to bring joy to the audience, and only by making them laugh happily can it be considered a successful party.
I hope that this year's Spring Festival Gala, laughter can be passed on in every family and kick off the joyful Year of the Dragon.
