This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Chapter 266: 264. Increase the number of performances

  Chapter 266 264. Increase the number of performances? Afraid that Wang Cheng will make a fool of himself? It's okay, there are special effects in post-production.

  Wang Cheng's voice is not loud.

  However, in the quiet scene, it was heard by everyone.

  Everyone heard it. Hearing the calm voice with obvious questioning, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, feeling a little guilty for no reason.

  It seems that they interrupted Wang Cheng's reading...

   It's just that the representatives of the famous music schools all looked at Wang Cheng with a very ugly expression.

  Because Wang Cheng completely ignored all of them.

  A middle-aged man whispered, "Isn't that rude?"

  Several people around listened and nodded slightly in agreement.

  However, Wang Cheng completely ignored them and continued to read his book alone, as if the gazes of thousands of people did not exist at all.

  Li Guang, Hu Xiaoshan, Zhao Donghu, and Gu Jun all looked very unsightly and hurried forward.

  The two directors, Zhao Donghu and Gu Jun, also saw the displeased faces of the representatives of the major music schools on the stage, so they hurried forward to find some professors and judges, and the contestants discussed today's program recording.

  Li Guang, the temporary producer, and Hu Xiaoshan, the official producer, quickly came to Wang Cheng's side to do Wang Cheng's work.

  As the earliest producer who cooperated with Wang Cheng, Li Guang was the most accepting of this situation. He stepped forward and smiled at Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, the recording of the program is about to start."

Hu Xiaoshan whispered: "This is temporarily the highest exchange stage for classical music in China. Don't you want to listen to their performances? If you like classical music art, listening to their performances here is definitely a pleasure. Especially In the end, there will be judges who will perform on stage, they are the world's top music performers, and if they have a solo concert, the price of tickets is not low."

  Wang Cheng turned the pages of the book and said flatly: "When it's time for me to play, just call me."

Forehead…

   Seeing Wang Cheng's calm demeanor, the two were speechless.

  Li Guang asked: "Then why don't you prepare for the stage performance? For example, go to the backstage to find a guzheng to practice your hands? Avoid waiting for the stage to make mistakes?"

  Hu Xiaoshan hurriedly said: "We have prepared two guzhengs, both of which were prepared by the Shanghai Music Academy, and we will definitely not let you down..."

  Wang Cheng shook his head lightly: "No, I'll be ready when the show is on. You go and do your own thing, don't worry about me!"

  The two looked at each other, and Hu Xiaoshan said again: "Wang Cheng, professors and students from several music colleges at home and abroad want to know you, should I introduce you?"

  Hu Xiaoshan knew that Wang Cheng would definitely offend those representatives of teachers and students of famous schools by ignoring them like this. It would not be good to trip Wang Cheng and today's program recording.

   Moreover, many people really want to get to know Wang Cheng, this talented young man who composed the excellent guzheng piece General Order at a young age!

But…

  Wang Cheng lowered his head and continued to read the book, without even wanting to glance at the professors and judges, he said flatly, "No need!"

  Hoo...

  Hu Xiaoshan took a deep breath before letting his heart beat down.

  He glanced at Li Guang, with undisguised regret and blame in his eyes—why did you arrange such a grand master for me?

Li Guang smiled helplessly, then shook his head lightly, signaling to stop talking, and then smiled at Wang Cheng: "Well then, Wang Cheng, you can read here for a while, and someone will notify you when you come on stage later." .”

  Wang Cheng hummed, and ignored Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan.

  Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan did not continue to say anything to Wang Cheng. They knew that what they said was free, and Wang Cheng was like this. They turned and left immediately, and walked towards Zhao Donghu and Gu Jun.

   And Zhao Donghu and Gu Jun also frowned when facing several famous school music consultants who had a great say in the program group.

  A middle-aged man said: "Director Zhao, Wang Cheng is so confident, shouldn't we give him more chances to perform?"

  This is Zhou Zhe, the deputy director of the piano department from Yangyin, who has been one of the program consultants since the program group was formed.

  Zhao Donghu and Gu Jun frowned upon hearing this request.

  They naturally didn't trust Wang Cheng's attainments in classical music art. After all, Wang Cheng's public performance was just a guzheng piece, General Order.

  Their plan is to give Wang Cheng time to perform a Guzheng song, General Order, just show up in the program group and complete the tasks arranged on the stage.

  At this moment, they only wanted to end Wang Cheng's performance as soon as possible so that the old man could be sent away.

otherwise…

  This uncle is here like a timed mushroom egg, and he doesn't know when it will burst out with energy that is unbearable for them.

Zhao Donghu said: "Today there are two special guests performing on stage. At the beginning, Wen Yixiao performed a piano piece. Then, the contestants performed normally on stage. During the break, Wang Cheng will perform a general make!"

  Zhao Donghu told Zhou Zhe and others about the program arrangement.

  Zhou Zhe looked around at several Yangyin and Moyin, Zheyin's acquaintances, and everyone exchanged glances, and they could see the meaning in their eyes.

Li Xiang, the director of the Department of Magic Music and Folk Music, stood up and said, "Director Zhao, I agree with Director Zhou's proposal. Our program has been lukewarm for more than a year. I heard that the TV station is losing money. This time it's hard. We have invited two big-name celebrities, how can we not make good use of their heat and popularity?"

"My proposal is. Don't we have eight contestants and four games today? At the end of each game, Wang Cheng will be invited to perform a piece of music, so that we can increase the ratings of our program all the time. To everyone It's all good, isn't it?"

   After Li Xiang finished speaking, he glanced gloatingly at Wang Cheng who was still sitting there reading a book not far away.

   Four shows!

  He didn't believe how well Wang Cheng could perform.

   At that time, the judges will not let Wang Cheng go...

  Although Wang Cheng is not a contestant, the judges have the right to comment after each performance.

Han Feng, director of Zheyin's piano department, also smiled and said: "Those who are able should work harder, Director Zhao, and Director Xiao Shan, Director Li, think about it. Wang Cheng is a musical genius, and he won't feel pressured to perform a few more performances." There is a whole day today, which should be enough time. Whatever he wants to play, we will prepare for him, and we will definitely cooperate with him!"

   Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan, who came over, listened and looked at each other. They knew that the leaders of the three music schools were going to target Wang Cheng, and wanted to make Wang Cheng lose face on this stage!

  Four performances…

   Even the geniuses carefully selected by prestigious schools like them may not be able to guarantee their status.

   Let alone Wang Cheng, who was completely unprepared, and in the field of classical music, which Wang Cheng may not be good at...

   This is almost impossible to do!

  Li Guang immediately shook his head: "This is impossible. Wang Cheng only agreed to perform a general order, and has no preparations for the second performance."

  Zhou Zhe said with a smile: "Producer Hu, Director Li, this is a good opportunity to increase the ratings of our program..."

  Hu Xiaoshan also has expectations for the ratings, but he doesn't want to offend Wang Cheng, and he doesn't want the Huaxia music circle to be looked down upon by teachers and students of famous foreign schools because of Wang Cheng.

  So, Hu Xiaoshan shook his head and said, "Director Zhou, this is basically impossible!"

Han Feng looked at Wang Cheng indifferently, and said softly: "Producer Hu, Director Zhao, and Director Li, I think you should ask Wang Cheng himself if he is willing. Such a chance to be in the limelight is very important for him. It's also an opportunity! Normally people want to be on our stage, but it's not that simple..."

  Han Feng himself was very dissatisfied with the fact that Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao were forcibly inserted into the show by the program group. At this time, he made a little mockery, and didn't take the pop music singer who was born in the entertainment industry into his eyes.

   Even though Han Feng recognized and liked Wang Cheng's general order, he still thought that Wang Cheng was willing to degenerate in the entertainment industry.

  If Wang Cheng is willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, immediately leave the entertainment circle, devote himself to several major music academies, and enter the classical music circle, then Han Fengfeng will immediately recognize and praise Wang Cheng!

  But Wang Cheng has not only been in the entertainment circle, but also didn't even look at the representatives of their major music academies when he came here today.

this…

  They can't bear it at all!

Li Xiang also immediately said: "That's right, Director Li, ask Wang Cheng to come over and have a chat! I heard that he overshadowed the sky on the Cultural Central Plains program and emptied the entire program group, so he must have his own ideas about the recording of the program." ? Then ask him to come over and have a chat about how to record today's show!"

   "I have the same idea as Director Zhou and Director Han. It is to increase the number of performances for Wang Cheng..."

  Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan looked at each other again, and they both saw that the leaders of the three music colleges were trying to force them to submit.

  Li Guang took a deep breath. He knew that he couldn't ignore the opinions of these three people at this time. Otherwise, even if he forcibly suppressed it, it would be difficult for Hu Xiaoshan to deal with the aftermath. If not, the program team might collapse.

certainly…

  If this money-losing program group collapses and stops broadcasting, then Dragon TV will definitely be willing.

  However, Li Guang didn't want to collapse because of himself. He didn't want to take the blame himself, and he didn't want the blame to be pinned on Wang Cheng.

  So, Li Guang said softly: "I'll ask Wang Cheng for his opinion."

  Yangyin's Zhou Zhe immediately said, "I'll go with you."

   As he said that, Zhou Zhe followed Li Guang to Wang Cheng, thinking about how to run Wang Cheng later. Zhou Zhe had his own way of thinking about dealing with this kind of young man who was successful at a young age and loved to play big names and be arrogant...

   Then, Hu Xiaoshan, Zhao Donghu, Li Xiang, and Han Feng followed suit!

  Other people around saw the discussion and walked towards Wang Cheng. They all looked at this scene curiously, not knowing what happened.

  Wen Yixiao, An Keru, Han Xiao, Zhu Ziqi, Lin Mi, etc., all looked in Wang Cheng's direction worriedly, fearing that Wang Cheng would be bullied by the program crew!

  Wen Yixiao thought for a while, then got up and walked over. As today's guest performer, she is qualified to come on stage to give her opinions. It's just that she is not a person who likes to talk, but now she is willing to do anything for Wang Cheng, so she walked over at a faster pace!

   Li Guang and Zhou Zhe came to Wang Cheng.

  Wang Cheng was still sitting there reading a book, feeling someone was coming, he looked up at a few people, and then continued to read.

Li Guang was afraid that Zhou Zhe and the others would offend Wang Cheng, so he said first: "Wang Cheng, this is Director Zhou of the Yangyin Piano Department, Director Li of the Moyin Folk Music Department, and Director Han of the Zheyin Piano Department. They proposed I want you to increase the number of performances today..."

   Increase the number of performances...?

   That's more work!

  Wang Cheng frowned slightly, and asked lightly: "How many performances are agreed in the contract?"

   As long as the contract is not violated, he certainly does not want to increase the workload.

   It’s work, of course, if you can be lazy, you can be lazy...

   Several people around were stunned for a moment, but they didn't expect Wang Cheng to ask about the content of the contract...

  Li Guang recalled a bit, and said: "There is no specific number of performances stipulated in the contract!"

Zhou Zhe seized the opportunity and said: "Wang Cheng, we hope that you can perform four games. After each contestant's competition, you will perform one. This will increase your exposure and also allow you to interact with our contestants. Exchange and learn. I think, with your musical genius, you won't lose to them, right?"

  Today's eight contestants are the top eight contestants who have been eliminated in two rounds. Each of them is a genius among geniuses, and their performance standards are absolutely high enough to hold a solo recital.

   Let Wang Cheng perform after the contestants' performances, so that it can intuitively reflect the gap between Wang Cheng and the talented players of the top music academies.

  Zhou Zhe directly put a high hat on Wang Cheng, wanting to provoke Wang Cheng.

but…

  Wang Cheng didn't wrinkle his eyes, and said in a calm tone: "Since there is no specific performance appointment, then you can just look at the arrangement. As long as it is a normal work arrangement and does not exceed working hours, I have no problem!"

Forehead…?

  The faces of several people showed both doubts and surprises at the same time.

  Zhou Zhe, Li Xiang, and Han Feng looked at each other, and they couldn't believe it. Wang Cheng agreed so easily?

   Could it be that Wang Cheng didn't understand that this was targeting him?

  Every time a contestant finishes a competition, Wang Cheng will follow up with a performance, and then the true level will be exposed...

  Furthermore, for four performances by one person, the error rate will be very high. Once there are too many mistakes, they may be sprayed to death.

Although the three of them wondered why Wang Cheng would agree, making all the arguments they had thought up useless, but the result was what they wanted, and there was a gleam of joy in their eyes, and they gloated, thinking that they would talk to a few friends later. A familiar judge, let me give you an objective comment on Wang Cheng's performance!

   Li Guang, Hu Xiaoshan, and Zhao Donghu looked at each other in shock. They didn't expect that Wang Cheng would agree.

   Do you really not understand, or do you simply not know what stage is here?

Hu Xiaoshan hurriedly reminded: "Wang Cheng, this is a competition stage jointly created by several famous music schools in China and top international schools. The performances here are all top classical music talents and musicians, and their standards are very high. If you want to perform four performances, are you sure?"

  He was subtly reminding Wang Cheng, pay attention to his performance level, is it in line with the height of this stage?

  Li Guang also said: "Wang Cheng..."

Zhou Zhe hurriedly said: "Since Wang Cheng himself is fine, I think we should believe in Wang Cheng's strength and talent. He is the hottest music talent this year, and he will definitely not lose to the top talents in the world. Producer Hu, Director Li , we should give Wang Cheng a chance to perform, maybe he will be favored by top international schools!"

  Li Guang shook his head and said, "This is not the same thing..."

  However, Wang Cheng didn't want to hear them arguing here, so he frowned and said, "When it's time for me to perform, just call me."

  Li Guang froze for a moment, looked at Wang Cheng and reminded: "Wang Cheng, do you really want to perform four times?"

  Wang Cheng didn't even raise his eyes, and still said calmly: "It doesn't matter. As I said, as long as it is a normal work arrangement, there is no problem!"

  A moment of speechlessness flashed in Li Guang's eyes, and he asked, "Then are you ready?"

  Wang Cheng shook his head truthfully: "No!"

  Hoo...

  Hu Xiaoshan, Zhao Donghu, and Gu Jun all smiled wryly when they heard this.

   Zhou Zhe, Li Xiang, and Han Feng showed happy smiles!

Han Feng hurriedly reminded: "Director Li, Director Zhao, and Wang Cheng himself have no objections, then we are going to start recording, it's getting late. Wang Cheng still has a working time limit, if he delays, today may be I can't finish recording..."

   Saying that, Han Feng dragged Zhao Donghu to the stage, and began to discuss the repertoire of today's eight contestants!

  Zhao Donghu still looked at Wang Cheng, and saw that Wang Cheng was still reading a book calmly, so that he, the director, didn't know what to do.

  Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan looked at each other, and saw that Wang Cheng didn't want to talk to them at all. They didn't know what to say for a while, so they could only be silent.

Li Guang said to Hu Xiaoshan in a low voice: "Now, follow Director Zhou's suggestion. It's not a live broadcast anyway. At that time, just keep Wang Cheng's best performance. All other materials that are not good for Wang Cheng will be released in the later stage." Cut it all off."

  Hu Xiaoshan let out a long breath, nodded and said, "It's the only way..."

   Anyway, it’s not a live broadcast. During post-production, they can edit whatever they want!

  Even if Wang Cheng doesn’t have a good performance, they can mix cutting and add special effects to create a very powerful look.
