This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Chapter 483: 481Where has all the family time gone?

Although!

 It’s just an early performance.

 However, many of the audience and guests who were supposed to be present came to the scene.

 Many star actors and actresses who perform regularly gathered backstage early to make final preparations. At the same time, they also watched Wang Cheng's performance from the nearest distance!

Many people still criticized Wang Cheng's advance performance.

“Wang Cheng feels like CCTV’s biological son, and he has changed CCTV’s long-standing tradition specifically for him.”

“I heard that Wang Cheng composed five new songs for today’s performance, and they all fit the theme. I don’t know if that’s true!”

 “It’s just a propaganda tool.”

"No, what I heard is true. Wei Hong, Sun Li, and Li Youhua finally went to perform with Wang Cheng, but they only participated in the chorus of one song and didn't get a few lines of lyrics."

 “Haha, it’s better not to go.”

 “I heard that Wen Yixiao and Wang Cheng have a duet song!”

“Not only Wen Yixiao, but also Zhang Hanwen, who also sang a song with Wang Cheng.”

“I’m quite looking forward to Wang Cheng’s new songs.”

"Let's see…"

 “Is this host a new face?”

“She is a new face in the Spring Festival Gala, but she has been working at CCTV for a while. However, she resigned some time ago to become Wang Cheng’s assistant.”

“You have such good looks and temperament. You may be the leading actress of CCTV in the future. Why don’t you give up your promising future and become Wang Cheng’s assistant?”

 “Who can resist Wang Cheng’s charm?”

   …”

 …

Indeed, many people heard it and thought about it carefully, who can resist Wang Cheng’s charm?

nobody!

Even if many female celebrities and artists want to refute, they cannot refute in their hearts.

 In the audience, sitting are Qin Yuhai, Lei Zhenzong, Yu Jinghong and other high-level figures in the industry.

There are also variety show directors and producers such as Zhang Huizhong and Li Guang who came to watch this year’s Spring Festival Gala performances, especially Wang Cheng’s performance.

In the past three months, Zhang Huizhong, Li Guang, Wu Tong, Guo Shouxin and others have not been idle. They are also busy producing their own programs and have achieved considerable results on their respective TV stations. However, the programs they originally collaborated with Wang Cheng In comparison, it is indeed far behind.

 So, they still want to continue to cooperate with Wang Cheng!

only…

Wang Cheng has almost disappeared from the scene in the past three months, and then went to star in and direct a movie himself.

They all started to wait and see at this time, waiting to see how Wang Cheng's new movie would be released, whether it would be a big bad movie, whether it would affect Wang Cheng's image and reputation, and then personally come to see what Wang Cheng would do today. Will the performance tonight continue to be at the same high level as before?

Xia Xi showed her talent and talent in hosting on the stage. She made a speech that attracted applause from the audience, and then said: "Okay, I won't be an eyesore here. Next, we will hand over the stage to Those of you who want to see it... please invite Wang Cheng to bring a new song that he sang for the first time. Where did the time go?"

 With warm applause.

 The lights on the stage dimmed.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, the lights came on again. Wang Cheng was already standing in the center of the stage, wearing simple casual clothes, a white shirt, jeans, and no makeup, but he still attracted everyone's attention. That's all. , that appearance and temperament are still unique.

 A burst of soothing music played.

Wang Cheng picked up the microphone and sang his own song softly.

 “The old tree in front of the door sprouts new buds.”

 “The dead trees in the courtyard are blooming again.”

 “Half-lived a lot of words.”

 “Hide a head of white hair.”

 “Little feet in memory…”

 “Putty little mouth.”

 “Give your love to him throughout your life.”

 “Just for that one word, “Mom and Dad.”

 …

Simple and soothing melody and clean and full singing voice brought silence to the scene.

 Many people's faces have become serious, and some people's eyes have turned red, reminding them of their parents at home.

Qin Shangran and Xie Xingfeng stood backstage and looked at Wang Cheng who was singing, with great satisfaction in their eyes.

  No dancing, nothing fancy, just clean and pure.

 Family love, that’s it!

 Parental love has always been like this!

 Only pure giving without asking for anything in return…

Qin Shangran couldn't help but wipe the corners of his eyes and whispered: "Wang Cheng's songs, the stage effect will always bring surprises."

 Xie Xingfeng smiled and nodded, with a glimmer of water in his eyes.

Wei Hong nodded and said: "Wang Cheng seems to give his best on stage. No matter how serious he is in the recording studio, it seems that it is not as perfect as on the stage. I listened to this song twice in the recording studio and felt that he sang it well. It’s very perfect, very touching, and even better than me who has been singing for decades.”

“However, his singing on the stage is even more perfect! Especially in terms of emotional release and appeal, it is really beyond imagination. I have never seen such an infectious singing voice in my lifetime of performing.”

Sun Li and Li Youhua both nodded in agreement.

Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, An Keru and Zhang Hanwen have known about it for a long time.

Wang Cheng's stage performance on the Tomorrow Idol stage was so explosive that everyone who saw it live couldn't help but be attracted and conquered by it.

 This is strength and talent.

Many other celebrity artists waiting backstage were also silent at this time. Listening to Wang Cheng's singing, some of their previous thoughts disappeared completely!

Just less than one song and they have to admit it.

Wang Cheng is the only one on this stage who cannot be replaced by them together.

"where did all the time go?"

 “Having children and raising daughters for a lifetime.”

 “My mind is full of children crying and laughing…”

"where did all the time go?"

 “Your eyes are blurry even before I take a good look at you.”

 “Firewood, rice, oil and salt, half a life.”

“In a blink of an eye, all that’s left is wrinkles on my face.”

 …

 Many actors have begun to secretly wipe their eyes.

 Many audience members in the audience were also gently wiping their eyes.

Yu Jinghong said softly: "Wang Cheng's stage performance will never let us down. This song is the most touching song he sang. I couldn't help but cry. Thinking of me My mother at home, it was not easy for me and my brother to grow up, but my brother and I haven’t been home to celebrate the New Year with her for several years.”

Lei Zhenzong sighed: "That's your fault. You should spend more time with the elderly. My son went to North America and hasn't come back to see me for nearly ten years."

Lei Zhenzong said and wiped the corners of his eyes.

 He had thought about retiring a few years ago, but he still continued to work. Did he not want to continue to earn more money for his son, so that he would have less money worries in his future life?

Yu Jinghong nodded: "I'll go home tomorrow!"

Lei Zhenzong: "Go ahead and help me bring a gift to your mother." Yu Jinghong hummed, and then said: "It seems that Wang Cheng's performance tonight will definitely bring his popularity and attention back to its peak. Even if the movie gets bad reviews, it won’t have much impact on him!”

Lei Zhenzong: "I sent someone to inquire about it, and also asked the deputy directors Su Hailong and An Keru. They both affirmed that Wang Cheng's movie is definitely not a bad movie, but will be a science fiction blockbuster that shocks everyone. , will definitely be a great success. Do you think it is believable?"

Yu Jing was stunned for a moment, and then said doubtfully: "I don't know! Su Hailong is the assistant director. An Keru is extremely obsessed with Wang Cheng, and he will definitely not say bad things! However, based on Wang Cheng's previous experience and achievements, he is An extremely demanding perfectionist, he is sure that you don’t want to make a bad movie, but who wants to make a bad movie? This cannot be achieved by doing it seriously..."

“So, I’m skeptical! I’ll find out when I go see it tomorrow morning.”

Lei Zhenzong shook his head: "Don't wait until tomorrow morning, just tonight. As soon as the show ends here, we will go to a nearby cinema to watch one."

Yu Jinghong: “Okay!”

 …

Wang Cheng’s singing voice continued to float.

 “The little feet in memory, the plump little mouth.”

 “Give your love to him all your life, just for the words “Mom and Dad”

"where did all the time go…"

"Not enjoyed young age good enough before turning old."

"where did all the time go…"

 “I haven’t even taken a good look at you, and my eyes have become blurry.”

"where did all the time go."

 “Half a life’s worth of food, rice, oil and salt.”

“In a blink of an eye, all that’s left is the wrinkles on my face…”

 “Born to be a misogynist all his life.”

 “My mind is full of children crying and laughing…”

"where did all the time go…"

“Your eyes are blurry even before I take a good look at you…”

"where did all the time go…"

“In a blink of an eye, all that’s left is the wrinkles on my face…”

 …

  The heartfelt songs made the audience at the scene and in front of all the TV sets wipe their eyes in silence.

 Wang Cheng’s own eyes also shed tears.

 He has been a human being for two lives, as a son to others, then as a parent himself, and now as a son to others. His emotions are the most complex and rich.

 I miss whether my father in my previous life will die safely, and whether my sons and daughters in my previous life will grow up smoothly. I also have mixed emotions about my parents in this life, including guilt and gratitude. I haven’t contacted them for a long time, and I don’t know if they are healthy...

After singing, Wang Cheng bowed slightly to everyone. He also bowed to his parents in his previous life and to his parents who must be watching his performance in front of the TV now.

"Thanks…"

Wang Cheng said a thank you in a complicated tone, then turned around and walked off the stage under everyone's gaze.

The scene was silent for a moment, and then burst into warm applause.

                         …

                       …

“The singing is really good. Wang Cheng’s live performance is really not as famous as meeting him. Meeting him is worse than being famous. It’s great!”

“This performance is better than any concert or party I have ever seen.”

“The moment he appeared on the stage, it was as if he was the only one left in the world. I couldn’t help but keep staring at him. It was so amazing.”

  “I cried when I listened to a song live for the first time!”

 …

Every audience member could not help but applaud and whisper excitedly.

Wang Cheng walked off the stage and nodded with Qin Shangran, Xie Xingfeng, Li Youhua, Wen Yixiao and others who were waiting in the background. He took the water glass handed over by Xia Xi and took a sip, ignoring Xia Xi who stared at him like water. Looking at it, he sat down to rest.

 In silence, Xie Xingfeng said to Xia Xi: "Xia Xi, it's your turn to take the stage..."

Xia Xi suddenly woke up and forgot that she was the host now. Watching Wang Cheng rest, the first thing she thought of was that she was Wang Cheng's assistant. She served Wang Cheng tea and water immediately, forgetting that she had other things to do. !

Xia Xi immediately smiled apologetically, then looked at the mirror for a while, and walked out.

 The second performance was not performed by Wang Cheng, but by Wen Yixiao!

 The two most popular superstars in today's entertainment industry appeared one after another, igniting the atmosphere both at the venue and in front of the TV.

What Wen Yixiao sang was not a new song, but a popular work she had just released some time ago, which has been downloaded more than 200 million times so far. It was this work that established her second only to Wang Cheng among the new generation of singers. The status of a powerful group is still higher than that of Du Wei who concentrates on developing music.

After Wen Yixiao's performance, it was Du Wei's performance, which was also a new song he released some time ago. The sales volume was second only to Wen Yixiao's hit new song, which also attracted enthusiastic responses from many audiences at the scene.

 Qin Shangran and Xie Xingfeng were relieved to see the three of them perform successfully.

Qin Shangran asked: "How is the public opinion on the Internet now?"

Xie Xingfeng picked up his mobile phone and looked at it. He saw that the new song that landed on the top of the hot spot was a new song sung by Wang Cheng. Where has the time gone? The number of people participating in the discussion has exceeded 10 million. It was absolutely explosive. He smiled and said: "It's done!"

Qin Shangran also took out his mobile phone and looked at it. When he saw that Wang Cheng and the Spring Festival Gala were ranked first and second in popularity, he smiled and nodded, feeling completely relieved.

 The most important thing is that the current popularity of the Spring Festival Gala is all positive, and there are not many complaints or negatives.

During the Spring Festival in previous years, the Spring Festival Gala was also the hottest topic, but it was basically filled with complaints and not much positive praise.

 This year, there are a lot more positive compliments.

“This year’s Spring Festival Gala finally brought me some surprises. Wang Cheng’s singing was so touching.”

“I finally heard Wang Cheng’s new song, and that alone is worth it.”

“The Spring Festival Gala finally did what I wanted.”

“Wang Cheng, Wen Yixiao, and Du Wei perform on the same stage again, dreaming back to the peak battle of tomorrow’s idol stage…”

“Where did the time go? I immediately booked a flight home. I have to have dinner with my parents at home tomorrow!”

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu My parents have left and we can't have dinner together. Wuuuuu, I didn't have much time to accompany you when I was alive. Now I regret it and want to die..."

 “Where has the time gone? We are all running for life!”

 “Woo woo woo…”

 …

Wen Yixiao and Du Wei’s performances can only be ranked sixth or seventh in popularity, which is already extremely rare.

Qin Shangran read some public comments and felt a little relieved, but still said with a little worry: "When will the ratings come out?"

Xie Xingfeng smiled bitterly and said, "It will take a while!"

 They know that public opinion is not the result after all, but the ratings are the report card.

 At this time.

Xia Xi said on the stage again: "I know, you can't wait to hear Wang Cheng's performance, right? Okay, welcome Wang Cheng..."

Wang Cheng stood up again.

Wen Yixiao’s pretty face flushed with excitement.

 Because it was time for her duet with Wang Cheng.
