When Han Lu saw that Chen Guangming had a bit of annoyance on his face, he sat back in his chair silently without saying anything.
He knew he had just said the wrong thing.
He was indeed a little hasty, even a little stupid.
Although recommending oneself to go on stage is the most appropriate option in this situation, it will definitely backfire if one is not the best candidate in the director's mind!
Obviously, he was not Chen Guangming's first choice.
After sitting down, he looked at Lu Yuan, who was leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed.
Lu Yuan looked very tired. In fact, he felt that something was wrong with Lu Yuan when he first stepped on the stage.
He smiled slightly.
It is difficult for a person to find his/her state when he/she is very tired. Even if it is a simple song, you cannot sing it well if you cannot find your state. This is something that all singers cannot avoid.
Han Lu smiled even more deeply.
He knew he was in no hurry at the moment.
Even if Lu Yuan was given a second chance to perform on stage, he still wouldn't sing well. After all, it's not realistic for a tired singer to find his form in twenty minutes.
He felt that he would eventually get the chance to perform on stage.
Don't rush, take your time.
Sooner or later it will be mine.
An Xiao also looked at Lu Yuan, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
Although she was willing to believe in Lu Yuan's talent and singing skills, it was difficult to rehearse perfectly under some extremely tired conditions.
This has nothing to do with talent or genius; it is simply the common essence of all singers.
"I hope you can cheer up soon. Even if you fail, it's ok. After all, you have tried your best."
She silently cheered for Lu Yuan in her heart.
…
It was impossible to have everyone waiting for Lu Yuan during the rehearsal, so Chen Guangming arranged for several other dance groups to perform on stage first.
The sound effects were very loud, and it was really not suitable for people to rest in this situation. However, it was impossible for Chen Guangming to give Lu Yuan any special care. It was actually very tolerant of him to give Lu Yuan another chance.
After all, time is really tight.
Unlike Lu Yuan's singing which was a bit bumpy, the dance group's performance was quite perfect, leaving Chen Guangming with basically nothing to complain about.
Chen Guangming was very satisfied.
Twenty minutes had almost passed after the dance group finished their performance.
Chen Guangming looked at Lu Yuan. He planned to ask someone to wake Lu Yuan up first, but before he could say a word, Lu Yuan took a deep breath, stretched his body and opened his eyes.
He walked towards Chen Guangming, and it was obvious that there was less fatigue in his eyes, and he looked a little better.
But……
It's just a little better.
"how's it going?"
"It should be about the same."
"Then try again."
"good."
"If you still can't find your form this time, then you'll have to be the audience for the Spring Festival Gala." Chen Guangming patted Lu Yuan on the shoulder. He didn't say anything encouraging, because he knew it would be useless to say encouraging words at this juncture.
"Yeah, I understand." Lu Yuan nodded and looked around.
If you hadn't come to the Spring Festival Gala, everything would be fine. But if you come to the Spring Festival Gala and do nothing but be an audience...
Damn, it would be better to stay at home, reclining on the sofa, eating snacks and watching the Spring Festival Gala.
What’s more, there are several hundred yuan for round-trip fare, which cannot be reimbursed!
You mean appearance fee? Yes, there is one.
How much?
Two thousand dollars!
Yes, you read that right, only two thousand yuan.
However, even if you want to earn these two thousand yuan, you have to go on stage. If you are a spectator, no one will give you the two thousand yuan.
"I understand." Lu Yuan nodded, straightened his clothes and continued walking towards the stage.
He walked towards the stage step by step, but he still looked so tired, and he didn't feel any better after resting for twenty minutes.
On the stage, An Xiao was already waiting for Lu Yuan.
Although she was smiling, there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
As for Han Lu in the audience, he stretched his body, clenched his fists, and his eyes gradually became hot.
He noticed Lu Yuan's expression and the sense of exhaustion he felt when he walked onto the stage.
It seems the ending is already determined.
…
There weren't many audience members in the seats below during the rehearsal.
Basically, the audience sitting in the seats below are candidates and staff.
They were all looking at Lu Yuan on the stage.
They shook their heads.
Lu Yuan looked as tired as the first time he went on stage this time, and it seemed that there was no change.
At this time Lu Yuan closed his eyes and then opened them again.
After opening his eyes again, the audience suddenly felt that there was no more fatigue in Lu Yuan's eyes, as if everything was different.
The music started playing.
"Find some free time
Take your children home often to visit...
An Xiao took the microphone and started singing first. "
Everything was normal and sounded exactly the same as the first time, leaving no room for complaint.
When it was Lu Yuan's turn, a happy smile suddenly broke out on Lu Yuan's face.
Then...
"Bring a smile and a wish
Accompany your loved ones to go home often to visit..."
When Lu Yuan's voice sounded, everyone present was stunned, even Chen Guangming widened his eyes slightly.
Lu Yuan's voice was no longer as hoarse and dry as before. Not only that, it even sounded unusually festive.
An Xiao also noticed Lu Yuan's change, but she did not stand there in a daze but continued singing.
The lyrics of "Go Home Often" are actually very simple and plain, and you can't hear any other feeling at first listen.
But if you really calm down and listen, you will find that the emotions in this song are very delicate, so delicate that it makes people feel a little sour.
This is obviously a festive song, and Lu Yuan sang it in a festive way, but the effect did not make people laugh. However, it made some people who calmed down fall into deep thought.
Completely different from the first time!
Yes!
The same song, but singing it in different ways feels completely different!
Chen Guangming looked at Lu Yuan in surprise.
Incredible, really incredible!
Unexpectedly, twenty minutes later, Lu Yuan seemed to have been reborn and became a completely different person.
Soon the song was over.
Lu Yuan put down the microphone and bowed slightly to everyone.
Everything is perfect.
After singing, Han Lu, who had stood up excitedly, sat back on the chair.
He was also in disbelief at this moment. He could not have imagined that Lu Yuan, who was so exhausted twenty minutes ago, could now sing the song in one breath. Except for the fact that his movements looked a bit stiff, everything else was impeccable to Han Lu.
Some parts are even perfect, not inferior to some professional stage singers.
Then……
He suddenly realized that he might become an audience member of the Spring Festival Gala.
The audience sitting below watching Lu Yuan's performance.
"call!"
When Lu Yuan finished singing, he looked very energetic on the stage. He could have sung another song "Love Until Death" without any problem. However, as soon as he stepped off the stage, Lu Yuan became listless again and even yawned.
After seeing the changes in Lu Yuan, Chen Guangming felt unable to adapt for a while.
There are two people on the stage and in the audience, just like a face-changing magic trick.
What does this mean?
"Xiao Lu, how did you do it?"
"What?" Lu Yuan perked up and looked at Chen Guangming with some confusion.
"You look energetic on stage, but why are you so..."
"Oh, Director Chen, in the past 20 minutes I wasn't actually trying to find my form, but was thinking of a method. Fortunately, this method was very successful..."
"What is the solution?"
"In the past six months, I have read many books on acting and studied my acting skills. I found that as long as I treat the stage as a movie camera, I am a singer in the Spring Festival Gala, so I have to make the many details of this role as perfect as possible. Well, I am not standing on the stage to sing as a singer..."
"Are you acting as an actor? Are you a singer?"
"You could say that."
Lu Yuan thought of the man who appeared in the Spring Festival Gala in the previous world.
In fact, everything is not difficult to explain. He just makes himself try hard to remember the man's singing style and imitate that man.
After the imitation, they will naturally feel tired and yawn...
"If that's the case, then your acting is really good. I'm suddenly very interested in the movie 'The Wanderer' starring you."
"ah?"
"Oh, by the way, I want to solemnly remind you of something here."
"What is it?"
"The Spring Festival Gala is a big stage, a grand event before the Chinese New Year. Many of the programs are festive and professional, and many sponsorships are subtle and silent. You should understand this."
"I understand, but what does this have to do with me?"
"I know your movie 'The Wanderer' will be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but no matter what, you are not allowed to put any advertisements about 'The Wanderer' on the show, no matter what form, do you understand?" Chen Guangming looked at Lu Yuan very seriously.
“…”
Lu Yuan was speechless after looking at Chen Guangming with eyes as if he was looking at a bastard who only knew how to advertise.
It’s not like he doesn’t know what the Spring Festival Gala is about, and doesn’t he look like someone who is always thinking about advertising while the trend is hot?
Damn it!
Is he that kind of person?
…
Han Lu failed.
He forced a smile, greeted Chen Guangming, and then turned and left the rehearsal.
It's really a bad feeling to be told that you are out of the game after seeing hope at first.
Although Chen Guangming didn't say anything, he knew that he had now become a spectator of the Spring Festival Gala rather than a participant.
Can this feeling be comfortable?
"How about it?"
"Lu Yuan's rehearsal was very successful. I don't have a chance. Let's go back."
"Don't be discouraged. By the way, I have good news for you."
"What good news?"
"The contract of Hu Xiao, the previous spokesperson for Newbuck Suit, has expired, and the attitude of the senior management of Newbuck Suit seems that they don't intend to let Hu Xiao renew the contract again... I think this is an opportunity, and I happen to have some connections in the Newbuck marketing department."
"Oh? Sister Liu, you mean..."
"Come with me to meet Manager Zhao tomorrow. If the conversation goes well, Manager Zhao will recommend you as a candidate for the new spokesperson. I have asked around, and Newback Suit has no other competitors for now, and the top management also wants you to take a look first..."
"Oh, that's great!"
"Let's go."
"good!"
When Han Lu heard this, his expression became excited again.
There is no longer any sense of despair.
Newback suits!
This is one of the top suit brands in China. If I could sign the contract to be the spokesperson for this suit, it would definitely be a great thing!
