The 2023 Year of the Rabbit Spring Festival Gala brought you many wonderful moments, and many programs left a deep impression on everyone. But don't patronize to watch the excitement, in fact, there is some deep meaning behind the casting and show of the Spring Festival Gala.
From cultural trends to changes in celebrity cafes, this information is "hidden" in the program content and performers!
Connotation 1: Changes in coffee positions in the entertainment industry
Every year, the Spring Festival Gala will invite some stars in the entertainment industry, basically many people are collective song and dance performances, or a group of people to perform skits together.
However, on the stage of this year's Spring Festival Gala, there are two stars who have a single show, one of which is Zhao Liying.
Zhao Liying has two programs, one is the opening chorus, and the other is the solo program "Full Tingfang National Color", she is also the first actress in 85 flowers to have an independent program at the Spring Festival Gala.
Even netizens said that Zhao Liying's fans are too happy, she broadcast two dramas last year, with a good reputation and audience popularity, and has firmly left the remaining 85 flowers behind.
Now that Zhao Liying can perform on the Spring Festival Gala alone, it also shows that the industry has recognized Zhao Liying's strength, and her development will be better and better.
Actor Huang Bo also has a single stage, stepped on the treadmill and performed the song "Little Brother", he was not popular when he was a singer before, but after becoming a movie king, Huang Bo fulfilled his dream of being a singer on the spring evening.
Xu Zheng, Sun Honglei, and Huang Lei, who previously belonged to the same echelon as Huang Bo, now have their own dilemmas. The Spring Festival Gala can be described as "attracting countless stars to bend their waist", but if you want to say "popular figures", it depends on Huang Bo.
Connotation 2: "De-traffic" of the party
On the stage of the Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Rabbit, you can find that the number of traffic stars participating in the party has decreased significantly, basically several people are the same as the previous show, or let the traffic stars be foils for professional singers.
For example, Song Yi and Song Zuer, as actresses, took Shan Yichun and Huang Xiaoyun, two new-generation singers, and they collaborated on the song "Green Water and Green Mountains", and the program also added Kunqu opera elements.
Brother Jackie Chan went to the Spring Festival Gala this time is also a multi-person cooperation stage, and Chen Linong, Jiang Yiyi, Peng Yuchang and other young artists sang "Youth to the Sun".
There is also the very familiar Phoenix Legend, they used to perform in two, but this time they also formed a 4-person group with Dong Baobao and Zhao Jinmai.
Connotation three: There is a serious shortage of comedians
In fact, when the program list of this year's Spring Festival Gala was exposed, many netizens said that there were many fewer language programs this year, and there were only 6 programs in total, which made people feel a little regretful.
In the entire party, the only crosstalk actors who appeared were Yue Yunpeng and Sun Yue, and their crosstalk work "My Change, Change, Change" was not a traditional crosstalk, and the second half was directly changed from crosstalk to magic, which was not funny at all.
And there are no excellent sketch actors, although Shen Teng and Ma Li's sketch "Pit" is highly anticipated, it is far inferior to the Spring Festival Gala sketches they used to work with, and the laughter is also average.
Like Yang Zi and Wang Baoqiang's "Coming Soon", and Sun Tao and Qin Lan's "On the Hot Search", people don't feel that there is much to see, and the quality of several language programs is worrying overall.
Connotation 4: The Chinese nation is a family
In the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Rabbit, a number of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan stars were invited to express the theme of the Chinese nation as a family. Jiang Yuheng and Su Youpeng sang the song "Several Cups with the Past", which made people reminisce about the past while listening to the song, and the effect was still good.
Two Hong Kong stars such as Jackie Chan and Yan Mingxi collaborated with Chen Linong and Zusi, two new-generation artists from Taiwan and Macao, showing vigorous vitality and strength.
Connotation 5: Carry forward traditional culture
In this Spring Festival Gala, Chinese traditional culture runs through it, from intangible cultural heritage, traditional opera, Chinese martial arts, acrobatic performances, to Chinese sacred beasts made with modern technology, allowing the audience to feel the charm of our traditional Chinese culture.
In the acrobatic performance "Dragon Leap Shenzhou", the actors reproduced the thousand-year-old intangible cultural heritage "Nakahata" for everyone, and also added classical dance, martial arts elements, etc., which made people applaud.
There is also the dance "Splendid Embroidery", which is derived from the dance drama "Five Stars Out of the East", the dancers are wearing "Han Jin", the artistic conception comes from the interpretation of "China is a country of etiquette", and also shows the unique art of tapestry for thousands of years.
Connotation 6: The mainstream is gradually embracing young culture
The Spring Festival Gala is a mainstream visual feast for the public, and the stage of the Spring Festival Gala is now more inclusive, and it is gradually embracing young culture. For example, this time Zhang Wei appeared early and sang a song "Open Meal!" Open fun! 》。
In the past, some people may think that he is not mainstream enough and not suitable for large-scale traditional parties, but this time Zhang Wei's performance was very festive, and the music directly exploded the audience. Netizens said that the happy atmosphere suddenly appeared, which is worthy of Zhang Wei!
In addition, this time also joined the talk show session, inviting several well-known talk comedians such as Xu Zhisheng and He Guangzhi to bring niche art to the big stage.
"Non-mainstream" singer Xu Song first appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and sang a song "Co-production", indicating that in order to be more diversified today, the Spring Festival Gala is actually constantly trying to develop innovation.
Connotation 7: The "inheritance" of female hosts
The hosting lineup of the Spring Festival Gala has always been the focus of attention and expectation of the audience, especially the female hosts at the gala. This time on the Spring Festival evening of the Year of the Rabbit, the female host has also been updated, adding a new face Wang Jianing.
The female host of the Spring Festival Gala changed from the gentle and amiable Ni Ping to the intellectual and atmospheric Zhou Tao, the dignified and elegant Dong Qing, and then to the calm and beautiful Zhu Xun and Li Sisi, all of whom are the most in line with traditional Chinese aesthetics.
In the past two years, the female host of the Spring Festival Gala has become more fashionable and flexible, and the aesthetic changes of the Spring Festival Gala can also be seen from the looks of Long Yang and Ma Fanshu.
Although Long Yang, Ma Fanshu and newcomer Wang Jianing are all full of youthful and beautiful temperament, some netizens feel that they are still almost interesting and not atmospheric enough.
For the program team, the update of the host is a must, but obviously the audience is not very acceptable, but we must also give these newcomers more time, so that they can also grow.
As the most anticipated traditional evening party in the country, the Spring Festival Gala arrives every year, and the content of these annual galas has also undergone many changes and innovations, giving people a new look and feel.
These seven connotations behind this year's Spring Festival Gala, I don't know if you can see it?
